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
She takes a deep breath, before her glaring eyes refocus on me. “If it were any other crime, they would have been imprisoned in a normal dungeon or hell, in the council’s stronghold. Instead, they were imprisoned somewhere where no one knew their location and then their prison was sealed off with ma
Sadie. I pull Raven into my room before shutting the door. The moment we are alone, Raven sits down on my bed while I start pacing the room anxiously. So far, I am not liking the way things were going. In fact, I hate how everything has turned out. Would it make me a coward if I just fled back to
It has been a really stressful day, to say the least, and I can’t wait to go to sleep and just forget about everything, even if it’s for a while.After our talk, Raven left to research more about the confinement spell. She hoped that she could ask around among the witches she knew. Hoped she could f
You are probably wondering why now. Well, Alec wasn’t there when she was born. So, even though the bond settled in him, it didn’t completely settle in Aspen. Let's just say that it was loose. That's the best term I can give it.They have been around each other but never really interacted until today
A freezing, wet, and hard surface is underneath me. This isn’t like the soft mattress I slept on a couple of hours ago. I want to continue sleeping for a little while, but it’s unbearable. I try to shift, hoping I will get comfortable, but it doesn’t work. Small, hard things press into my skin, incr
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
