Chapter 99
We met Alette back at our suite an hour later. She escorted us through countless hallways, halfway across the castle.
Summer was in full bloom now, and I enjoyed every glimpse of flowers and the rush of warm air on my skin. It was especially nice in the parts of the castle that had no ceiling. Only pillars with billowing curtains, lined the marble walkway that we currently traveled down.
"There's multiple libraries in this place, but this one is my personal favorite." Alette told us, throwing a smile over her shoulder. "Adelina has her spying and seeing the future, and I have this."
"The library?" I asked, glancing up at an ornate set of doors etched with golden filigree.
"Knowledge." She corrected, shoving open the doors with a single heave.
My nose wrinkled initially as I expected the scent of dust and old books. Instead, I smelled vanilla and tobacco, leather and ink.
Floor to ceiling bookcases lined the walls, all full of different volum

Ever since accepting Atlas as my mate, I've been learning new things about him. How unfalteringly loyal he is, and fearless in the face of danger. How he uses his words to tease and torment my body, until I'm breathless and begging for his touch. Atlas also happened to be a man of his word.I first found release with his face between my legs, his tongue making long, lavish strokes across my skin. The second time was with his hand twisted in my hair, and my face pressed into the soft pillows as he grunted and thrust into me from behind. His fingers had traveled around to the front of me, working me into another blissful orgasm.His movements and touches became rougher, and I enjoyed this side of him. The one that brought both pleasure and pain, and wielded them masterfully. His teeth scraped down my skin, nipping at me until small bites formed across my breasts. I had found my third release when his teeth scraped across my nipple. My back arched and my vision blurred as

The three of us hurried down the dark pathway within the walls of the castle. I could hear murmuring and excited chatter from the maids and servants preparing for the ball, just as I could hear the first wave of guests arriving. The heels I wore clicked against the smooth stone floor, and echoed in a symphony of short notes."She vanished once she reached the doors that open to the valley below. If she did leave the castle grounds, the forest will make it impossible to find her." Adelina huffed, hiking her lavender dress up to her knees. "We can't--"Adelina skidded to a halt; the only warning was Tamara's venom laced voice approaching.Atlas and I stumbled into one another, becoming a mess of limbs as we tried not to fall to the ground.'So very graceful, kitten.' His sly thoughts crossed over to mine.'We're the two clumsiest Fae to have ever existed.' I snorted, steadying myself on one of the smooth walls.Tamara was shouting at one of th

With the High Lady's cold, furious eyes on my face, I descended the stairs. My arm was linked through Atlas's, and more than anything, I desperately hoped I remained on my two feet. The stairs were long and curved around as they descended to the ground level where the crowd awaited.Atlas and I reached the bottom at the same time as Alette and Adelina. We stood at the base of the stairs, looking out into the sea of fae that chose to attend. As soon as our feet hit the ground, I was enveloped in the rich scents and addicting sounds of the ball. Music twinkled, upbeat and joyful before becoming slow and passionate. The mouthwatering scent of fruits and roasted meats wafted in every direction. It was easy to get caught up in the allure of it all, I realized. How freeing it would be to simply let go and enjoy myself for a change.Atlas's irritation snapped me out of my stupor, and brought me back to the present where danger accompanied the beauty that lived within this wor

We emerged in Atlas's living room, barreling through the portal so fast that I nearly took out the lamp that sat on an oak end table.Everything was shrouded in darkness. The billowing curtains were wrenched open, revealing the dimly lit street outside. It was late at night, but there was something almost somber looking about the neighborhood. There were no more toys littering the front yards, and some of the houses even had boards on the windows. It sent a sickening feeling into my stomach, one that Atlas picked up on immediately.As I flicked on the lights, I couldn't help but look around. I had spent so little time here since actually returning home. The moment I came back, things were just set into motion. Even though we weren't safe here, I felt like I could breathe just a tad better."We're here--in the human realm." Alette murmured, her eyes blown wide with both wonder and horror. She glanced around the living room, which seemed a bit less extravagant tha

"So, how did you find out I became fae?" I asked Tyra, finding it more than odd that she hadn't seemed too surprised. Nicki walked back into the room with a blanket in hand, passing it over to me before she flopped down beside Tyra. I opened the blanket as best I could with Adelina sleeping on the couch beside me, and covered her with it. She made a few sounds here and there, but nothing that would indicate she was seeing future events. I turned back to Tyra as she continued speaking. "Your fae friend, Finn, got here two and a half months ago." She explained, taking a long drink of the coffee in her hands. I felt a bit guilty considering they all looked sleep deprived. "He gave Nicki and I the run-down, told us you probably were chased into the fae realm. He let us decide to tell the boys or not." "Which we clearly didn't." Nicki chimed in with a roll of her eyes, "Dustin obviously has a thing for you, considering he's been frantically searching for you for t

Any anger I had felt towards my mom had long passed. She had made the best decisions for me at the time, but always put my best interest before anything else. Even though the pain had changed me, I had AtlasAny anger I had felt towards my mom had long passed. She had made the best decisions for me at the time, but always put my best interest before anything else. Even though the pain had changed me, I had managed to come out the other side."It's alright. What's done is done." I nodded, agreeing with Finn.I could feel the searing spikes of guilt digging their way beneath Atlas's skin. Even though his face was skilled into cool neutrality, I could feel the pain that hid beneath. He couldn't hide it from me, no matter how much he wanted to at times.'You understand what this means, right? It's not your fault that you rejected me.' I told him softly, hoping he could understand how much I meant this. 'Even if our beginning was rough, this gives us a chance

"So, the Fae realm really is dying?" Nicki asked quietly. Surprisingly enough, her question was directed towards Adelina.She rubbed at her eyes and peered at the werewolves around her. I knew how she felt without asking, that uneasy sensation from being in an entirely different world. I could see the affect she had on everyone else, especially Michelle. Fae were inherently beautiful, but fae children resembled the greatest works from artists in both realms. They had the glowing skin, shimmering eyes, and pointed ears of the High Fae, but also the youthful innocence that allowed them to see the world differently."The source of our magic is deep within the earth. Lately, it's been growing weak. No matter how many pathways I see, I can't figure out how this all began; why it started fading in the first place." Adelina sighed, looking more exhausted than she had before she fell asleep."There's a connection between this realm and the fae realm. Some of the Fae wan

'How come you don't feel like you're going to throw up?' I muttered to Atlas, merging our thoughts together. His amusement trickled in first, followed by a hint of concern. Even in his head, his deep chuckle managed to raise goosebumps. I felt his touch along my arms, and felt his looming presence behind me. "I was born and bred to be an Alpha, kitten. Public speaking is part of the job." He smirked, tugging my wrist to turn me around. As the knot of nerves, I had currently settled in my stomach, I wished I could prolong this moment for just a while longer. It wasn't so much the public speaking I worried about, but the potential reaction our words could have. Unfortunately, we had mere seconds before Dustin came in the room, telling us it was now or never. This was the first stop of five. Five identical announcements that would spread throughout the pack and the world. The rogue attacks that plagued our lands were more than met the eye. Puppets being
