The man’s response sent ice coursing through my veins. ‘’I am your greatest nightmare,’’ he whispered into my ear. ‘’Run!’’ he shouted at me, then looked down at my stomach. ‘’This child, you will never have it! Kill them, child, and go far away!’’ he said and tried to drop me to the ground, but bef
I felt a chill run down my spine, and I tried to remember where I had met him. I had never gone anywhere since I met Axel except from the park. Could I have met him there? ‘’why is he telling me to run and not have the baby?’’Axel frowned. ‘’because he has a score to settle with me, and that was wh
~Axel~My eyes fluttered open to find Tamara’s face inches away from mine. Her skin glowed softly in the morning light that shone from her window. Her lips were slightly parted, and the urge to move closer and kiss her overtook me. It brought back memories of Lyra and me.I reached out to touch her
I turned to Tamara and grabbed her hand, carefully caressing it. ‘’You are mine to protect, now. And I will stop at nothing to keep you safe, so you do it when I tell you to do something. Is that clear?’’She nodded in response. ‘’Crystal.’’‘’Good,’’ I grabbed her hand and pulled her out of the bat
It was regarding one of the smallest packs, and the message was short and straight to the point. ‘’SOS Luna Pack’’It was sent by one of the elders who reside there, and that was the only message he sent. I knew something had happened, and it had to do with Ian. He was the one attacking werewolves be
~Axel~I scrunched my nose as we stepped into the Luna Pack, the scene before me far worse than I had imagined. The information I’d received hadn’t come close to preparing me for the devastation. Most of the buildings had been reduced to ashes, their charred remains reminded me of the terror my brot
He didn’t respond.My hands trembled as I gripped his collar, fear clawing at my chest. The silence was suffocating, and my thoughts spiraled toward the worst. I turned to Leonara and saw her holding the phone, silent. She hadn’t said a word, and her hesitation only grew my fear.I had never felt th
~Tamara~"Good morning, everyone. This is Tamara, the new employee of our department." Melissa, the department head, introduced me to the rest of the department members, and I bowed my head as I greeted them all. ‘’it is a pleasure to work here, and I hope you all treat me right,’’ I said to everyo
~Tamara~ "The dream is a dangerous place!" Emma’s warning echoed in my mind as I stood in front of my brother’s room. She had told me that stepping into Axel’s dream would be painful—that I might not return as the same person. If I failed, I might not return at all.The first person I thought of af
Emma stood up, her eyes blazing with anger. “Leonara, that’s enough!”I stepped forward, stopping Emma from intervening. “I’ll handle this myself.”She sighed, palming her forehead. “Whatever you want, but if she says anything else, I’ll make sure she gets a black eye.” She sat back down on the bed,
~Tamara~As I fluttered my eyes open, I gasped. My first instinct was to touch my chest, and when I felt the fullness of my breasts, I knew I was back in my body. My mind immediately went to Axel, who Ian had stabbed. I didn’t remember what had happened after he fainted in my arms, as I had also los
“You…” Tamara tried to say something else, but I grabbed her hand and shook my head at her. I knew what Ian was capable of doing, and he wasn’t bluffing when he said he would snap her neck.“Don't say another word. I will handle this,” I told her. She frowned at me but didn't say anything and angri
“I know you are somewhere around here, so show your stupid face, you coward!”My eyes roamed around for any sign of him, but there was none. I moved away from where I was and searched every corner of the room, including the curtains and outside the window. ''stop hiding if you want to fight me.'' By
~Axel~The park date was the best thing that had happened to me in years since Lyra's death. I never thought being in a park would bring me happiness. I couldn't stop thinking about the kiss Tamara and I shared on our way home. Each time I thought about it, I glanced at her, my head filled with thou
~Tamara~ I missed the first shot and got water sprayed on my face. Axel got it, and I also got water on my face. It went on for six rounds until I got lucky and hit one of the balloons. "Yes!" I shouted excitedly as the water got sprayed on Axel's face. He scoffed but said nothing as he threw his
It was my turn to frown because I never expected that it would be all about me, and I couldn’t let him win. He got on my nerves as much as I did with him. “Axel! To hell with your stupid rules!” I screamed. “You think because you are the alpha king, you can control me? Hell no! I do whatever I want
~Tamara~ “The park? You brought me to an amusement park?” Axel sounded as if I had passed terrible judgment on him. He sounded like he didn’t want to be there, but it was the only place I could think of to relieve his stress. Luckily for us, Leonara had the whole place booked for us. “I thought th
