We remain silent and watch him burn until there is nothing but ash left. I stare at the pile of ash as reality starts to sink in. I almost died today. Twice, for that matter. Damn it. Did the goddess have it out for me or something? First, I almost got killed by Alec, and now this? What’s next? Bei
Alec. I punch one of my warriors hard, feeling a sick kind of satisfaction when I hear his nose break. He groans, but that doesn't deter me. I land another blow and another until he’s on the floor. “Get up, Brady,” I commanded, but he didn’t. I know that I’m pushing him, but he’s one of my best w
Sadie A day ago. Tears formed in my eyes as I began to pack the little belongings I had. Technically speaking, they weren’t mine. Most of them are borrowed clothes from Raven, but that was beside the point. I swipe away the angry tears as I continue parking. Goddess, do I hate Alec. All that was
“This is where I say goodbye,” Beth tells us with tears in her eyes. “May the deities be with you.” I smile, fighting my own tears. “The moon goddess left me long ago… but thank you for taking me in and watching over me. I owe you and Raven my life, and I’ve come to love you as family.” “Your godd
Alec Present day “Are you sure?” I asked, standing up. My mood had already lifted, and I felt much better. Something passed in Micah’s eyes, but it was gone before I could read it. "Yes,” he gritted out through clenched teeth. "Someone has confirmed that it is indeed her." I remain quiet, study
‘On it’ Sure, Micah told me she was dead, but I wanted to see her body with my own two eyes. I also wanted our pack doctor to do a DNA test. With how advanced magic is nowadays, some could have done an illusion spell on a random dead body. Only with a DNA test would I truly know that Sadie was dead
Piper. I wandered around the pack aimlessly. I feel lost. So lost. It feels like a part of me is missing. I’ve known Sadie since we were little girls. She’s been my best friend, my confidant, and my sister. I never expected her to betray me by going after Alec. I was hurt and angry at her, but I n
We remain quiet, his warmth enveloping me, bringing a sense of comfort and peace. I could also feel Knox comforting Ash. Just like with Alec, Knox hated Sadie, but he loved his sister and would do anything to comfort her. “Is it okay if I bury her near her parents?” I asked him tiredly. “I know she
I am just about to flee after having said my piece when his hand grabs my arm. I twist around and face him. His gaze is intense, as his green eyes pierce mine in a way that leaves me breathless.For the first time in our lives, Alec’s gaze isn’t indifferent as he stares at me. I gasp at the emotions
SadieThree days. It’s been three days since I had the dream, and I am still confused about it. It doesn’t make any fucking sense. Just like the first time I dreamed about being killed, I woke up in the forest, naked and alone.I have no idea what happened or how I ended up there. All I can remember
When I got out and started changing, I didn’t know that I would be giving Sadie a strip show. Not that I am complaining anyway.I turned when I felt eyes on me. That’s when my eyes landed on her form, standing by the window. She didn’t flinch or move when I turned, even though I was stark naked in f
Alec.“You look deep in thought.”Micah’s voice interrupts my musings, pulling me back to the present. It’s been three days since we found out that a demi-god was probably imprisoned here.I am in my office. I should be working. I had a lot of work load. Both from my pack and my security company, ye
He smirks, still oblivious to how dangerous I am. I have conquered kingdoms, yet this puny thing thinks he is stronger than I. What a complete joke.“And that’s exactly what you are, isn’t it? A bitch…and your place is on your knees with my cock in your mouth,” he sneers, grabbing his crotch, before
Anonymous.I walk through the gates of my castle worn out, tired and completely pissed off. Someone had sent word that they had spotted my mother. That they were sure it was her.This time I decided to go myself. After all, if it was her, I wanted to drag her here myself. I wanted to be the one to b
Mostly we leave our clothes where we can find them or use the ones hidden in different spots. Like I said, it would be traumatizing for children to watch naked pack members every time someone shifts.As for us sleeping together three years ago, well, I still can’t remember the details of that night.
Sleep doesn’t come easily, even after taking a long-needed shower. I thought that washing off the tension in my weary bones would be enough, but it wasn’t. I then decided to relax in the bathtub and not think about anything. I failed miserably.Two hours after a shower and a warm soak in the tub, I
She moves, smiles and kisses my cheek. “I close the door.”My clever, sneet munchkin. I chuckle as I correct her. “It’s closed the door, honey.”"Close,” she repeats it wrong again.“Closed”“Close”I give up. I help her get inside the bathtub. It’s after she’s in that I realize that I miscalculated
