I don’t say anything. I just shut the door in her face. I don’t care if it's rude. They don’t deserve anything from me, and they won’t be getting anything from me.I get dressed quickly, then leave my room. I'll have to spend time with Aspen later on. The sooner I get this damn curse fixed, the soon
Raven.After Sadie left my room, I got up, showered, and got dressed. I usually take a few minutes in the morning to just meditate. It helps me channel and anchor my powers. This is something that my mother taught me since I was a little girl.Once I was done with that, I checked on Aspen. She was s
When I was done swimming, I headed back home. I think I’d been gone for, like, only an hour.I remember nearing our cottage and just knowing that something wasn’t right. Something didn’t feel right. I rushed inside our home to find my mom on the floor with her chest ripped open. Her heart next to he
Sadie.“Even if we were to try and find this woman, I’m not sure where we would even start,” Martin says, voicing exactly what I was thinking.This woman, whoever she is, went to great lengths to hide her identity. She didn’t want to be found. She didn’t want to be known, and with the kind of power
It's crazy and a little bit scary knowing that someone played you in this way. That someone was mechanizing things behind your back to make sure an aspect of your life failed.“But that would mean they know Alec and Sadie. They knew them so well that they knew how they would react. They counted on t
His words ring in my ear. I get what he is saying. I understand the words, but I can’t seem to grasp their meaning.Adopted. Adopted.How am I adopted? Of everything that has happened, not once has it ever crossed my mind that I may not be the biological child of my parents.“H-how?” I stammer the w
I’ve known Raven for three years. In those three years, I’ve witnessed a lot of emotions from her, but never fear.Have you ever come across someone who is fearless? Someone who nothing ever shakes them? Nothing ever rattles them. Raven is that person to me. Seeing the fear on her face right now, su
Alec. I was still reeling from whatever the fuck Raven had done to me when her words penetrated my throbbing brain. Fuck, I shouldn’t have antagonized her, but in my defense, I wasn’t in the right headspace. Things haven’t gone the way I’d pictured them today. I was stressed and on edge. That wasn
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
