What are your thoughts on Mavy?
“Wait.”Shane’s voice was firm and strong, it was everything I needed right now. He grabbed my arm and walked through the house. His sister yelled at us as he pulled me along, but he didn’t pay her any mind. I did the same, I didn’t look at her. I’ve never been in his house. He pulled me through a door and I realized we were in his room. It was barren except for a bed in the corner and a small table by the window.“Why are you here, Adea You can’t be here. It’s too dangerous. What if someone saw you? Did someone see you?” Shane asked.“Other than a few people outside, no one saw me.”“Okay, I’ll make sure to talk to them.”“Why did you come here?” Shane asked again.“You were seen leaving this morning.”“So you came here? Goddess, Adea. Are you okay?”“Yes, now that I think about it, it wasn’t the smartest move. I’m okay. They didn’t see you coming down the wall but my sister is suspicious. They only saw you running into the field.”“But we were close to getting caught,” Shane said.“
ShaneShe was the picture of perfection like this. I just claimed her body and soul last night, but I couldn’t hold back. I knew it would hurt her, but the sparks between us threatened to burn down the world if I didn’t have her again. The way she stared up at me as if she couldn’t live without me. The need in her eyes matched my own and it soothed something dark and cold in my tortured soul. When she said she was afraid she wouldn’t see me, I realized she was still thinking about leaving. She had accepted her fate and wasn’t even considering fighting. If I was smart I would leave now and reclaim my title, but it was so hard to leave her. It was too dangerous for me to take her with me. I was confident I would win, but the thought of losing and leaving her there defenseless wasn’t a risk I was willing to take. She whimpered and stole my attention again.“Goddess. You look beautiful when you’re like this,” I say in awe.I pull my pants down below my backside. My cock is so hard I feel
Adea All of the guards are gone. Everyone must have been sent to the slave quarters. I run down the hallway and up the stairs. I throw my door open and when I get in I slam the door shut and lock it. Where was I? I don’t know. I’ll stick with a walk. That’s all I can think of. When I turn around, I freeze. Sitting on my bed is Ava. She stares at me as if she knows she’s won but I won’t be admitting to anything. “Where have you been?” Ava asked. “For a walk.” “Your clothes are scratched up. Have you been running?” Ava asked. “No, I fell. I’ve become clumsy.” “You’ve never been clumsy, sister,” Ava murmured as she gets to her feet. “I need you to leave. I’m not feeling well.” “That won’t work with me either sister. I see right through your lies. You see, you were supposed to be in your room, and you weren’t.” “I told you I took a walk. I don’t need your permission for a walk. I needed some air.” “From the color in your cheeks sister, I think you got some.” I swallow. “Why are
ShaneLess than an hour ago, I took Adea in my room and watched her escape to safety. The whip came down on my back. Skin split, flesh cried out, and blood oozed down my back. The warrior holding the whip recited the same question he had been since we walked into the packhouse. My fingers gripped my thighs tightly as the whip came down on my back again. I won’t submit and I won’t out Adea. I’ll keep my mouth nice and shut until the time is right. And right now? The time is not right.The warrior takes a break from my back as Alphonse steps in front of the bastard next to me. He’s got an attitude and he’s bleeding from his head. I recognize him as Paul, I didn’t see him often, but he was assigned to clean up. He came in after events from dinner to parties and got rid of the mess.He takes a break from my back as Alphonse steps in front of the bastard next to me. He’s hunched over but as he locks on Beta’s shoes in front of him he straightens his back. He holds Beta’s gaze which in this
Adea I sit at the vanity but time stands still. It feels like it’s been hours but I know, it can’t have been more than twenty minutes that I’ve been up. When I’m ready, I unbolt the lock and pull open the door. Standing outside my door is Ava. “Perfect timing. Father sent me, he wants a word.” I don’t say anything. It isn’t strange for him to call for us. Something has either happened or there is something we need to prepare for. She turns on her heel and I follow her down the hall before we turn for the stairs. We walk in silence and normally that would be fine, but Ava’s behavior is making me nervous. When she turns for the dining hall, I know something is up. “Didn’t you say father wanted me? Why are we going to the dining hall and not his office?” I asked. “Because we have guests and he’s… entertaining them in the dining hall,” Ava said. She doesn’t continue on and she doesn’t try to ease my fears, not that she made a habit of that. I fight the urge to fidget as we walk throug
The slow walk up the stairs was excruciating as I fought the urge to run. I didn’t want to alert my sister or cause suspicion. I didn’t utter a word and neither did she. The conversation with Father hung in the air between us. Would Shane hate me as much as I hate myself for what’s happened to him? I didn’t deserve to, but I wanted nothing more than to see him, feel him, kiss, and hold him. I couldn’t pay any attention to him downstairs and it gutted me. It took everything to resist running to him, checking if he was okay, and wrapping my arms around him. Doing so would have signed his death warrant.Father wanted to see if I’d have a reaction to any of them. He wanted to see if I would give away any hint of emotion to try and weed out if there was any merit to the rumors. He wanted to know if the man I loved was among the men on their knees. I wouldn’t give it to him. I knew he would have killed them al
The voice on the other side of the door belonged to my father. What was I going to do? What could I do? Goddess. The body on the other side of the door slammed against the door. My bolt was holding strong but I knew it wouldn’t last for long. The sound quickened and I knew two people were taking turns throwing themselves against the door.“You can still get out,” I whispered. “Even if you had to climb down, they wouldn’t be able to get you! You’d be gone by the time they got down.”“They would be able to scent me and for all we know, they may already be set up downstairs,” Shane murmured. He took a step close and as much as I wanted to run, I stayed still. The tears streamed down my cheek, the sound of the door splintered, and Shane reached out to touch me. Sparks spread across my cheek as we made contact. I gasped as my eyes widened. Shane seemed unaffected as his thumb ran over my
Sitting up, I pulled him onto my lap. His eyes were closed and his breathing was haggard. I wiped his bloodied hair from his face. I could feel the flesh of his back. The chunks were raw and fell in different directions.“Shane?” I cried quietly.“Get him out of here,” Father ordered.“No, no, please. Fa—”I was cut off as his boot landed across my cheek. I hunched forward and covered Shane’s face. Protecting what I could, I’d failed him. This was all my fault. The men’s footsteps drew nearer and my grip on Shane tightened. I wasn’t going to let them take him. Hands came at me in different directions and I bit, slapped, and headbutted each one until arms wrapped around my waist. I started screaming.“No! No! Get off of me! Get away from me!”Shane was
Shane’s words are a shock to my system. Silence stretches between us, and I don’t know how long we sit there. I watched as he ran his lips against my knuckles before kissing the back of my hand. I can’t keep my eyes off of him, and as I stare at the side of his face, anger bubbles inside of me.What the hell is he thinking?Unlike the night I met him in this life, there’s no hate there. Shane emits love and patience, and if I hadn’t already spent the time that I had with him, I would have thought I was dreaming. His lashes are unfairly curled, his nose sharp, and as he straightens, I sigh as he runs his fingers through his hair. I don’t need memories of my past life to know that’s always been my favorite thing.Shane’s walls have come crumbling down, and now that I’ve got the man I love marked, and in bed with me, I can’t help but wonder why the fuck he’s here. His eyes meet mine and the corner of his lip pulls back until he flashes me with that panty-dropping smirk. Meanwhile, I’m st
Shadow ~ LivingstonCry ~ Benson BooneAdeaSilence. Absolute silence. I couldn’t even hear his breathing. One glance at his chest proved he hadn’t taken a breath since the words left my mouth. I waited for his answer, but his next breath was all I got before he lifted me up. Supporting my weight, he turned and walked to the sectional. With him leaning back, it felt good being in his arms for this conversation.“Of all the things you could ask…”“You said you’d answer anything,” I reminded.“I did.”“But not this?” I asked curiously.“I will. Just… give me a minute.”“Okay,” I breathed.Lowering my gaze, I gave him a second. My fingers danced along his defined abs as I waited. His chest rose and fell and I glanced up as he ran his hand through his hair. My favorite curl rebelliously dropping back into place on his forehead. His jaw ticked, and I wondered if it was that big of a deal for him to appear, what I would call, pissed.“You had come to stay with me. When I heard you were home
AdeaShane’s heat vibrated against mine. He fit perfectly. Everything had been going so well and now it felt like the ground beneath our feet was shaking. My natural instinct was to look at his lips, to reach out for him, to beg him to make it go away like he had in the truck on the way here. But the time for running had past, and this was a hurtle I couldn’t avoid.There was nothing that could make me feel better about this situation. Images of Shane fucking a multitude of faceless, hot, nameless women flashed one after the other through my mind. No one could make me question my self worth, but when it came to him, Goddess, it was impossible to see how I could ever be enough. Beka walking into the space that’s supposed to be mine set flame to the gasoline that lay at our feet. But, of course, instead of making it better, Shane outright admitted he’d been with women. I wanted to laugh. Knowing he’d probably never turned anyone down until today left a bitter taste in my mouth. It didn’
As soon as I came from the high Shane gave me, the anger came flooding back. And the bastard had the audacity to smile. I don’t know how he did it, but he saw everything. Well, I guess if we’d live multiple lives, he’d know everything about me. I didn’t understand why he could remember, while I couldn’t. His smirk turned into a shit-eating grin, pulling at both corners of his mouth, and my stomach flip-flopped. My pussy still spasmed in the aftermath of my orgasm, but Shane dropped his forehead to mine and laughed. I pushed against his chest, but with a twist of the wrist; I moaned and jerked against him. His shirt was soaked, and I spat it out. It was warm and wet where it fell against my thigh.Bastard.“What’s so fucking funny?” I snapped. Quickly, I swiped at the drool on my chin. The two parts of me waged a war; the one that loved him and the one that resented him. One second I was gushing for him and the next I wanted to punch the ass. His shoulders shook as he pulled his fingers
Shane’s eyes held mine and I tracked the movement of his tongue as it slid along his bottom lip. His head dipped as he lowered himself, as if he couldn’t get close enough. And I watched as he ran his hard, flat tongue up my spread lips. I fought the urge to close my eyes and throw my head back. The need to revel in the pleasure Shane gave me was strong, but I couldn’t. His eyes darkened as he closed his mouth and his throat bobbed. And I was thankful I kept my eyes on him. His lashes fluttered as he savored my taste. Shane was more beautiful than the paintings hanging on the wall. He was a work of art and I could stare at him for hours, days, weeks; however long I could.“More,” I demanded.A rumbling sound sent goosebumps down my arms. My lips parted as his mouth opened and his pink tongue darted out. My thighs shook as I watched it flick over my clit. I widened my legs; needy for more, so much more. My fingers curled against his scalp and I pulled on his hair. Willing him to give me
Aphrodite ~ Sam ShortInstinct told me I needed to protect myself. The need to wrap my arms around myself was strong, but Shane was everywhere. He lifted me and I wrapped my legs around his waist. My hands rested on his chest. He pressed a kiss to my hair, my forehead, my nose. Even as I wanted to escape this wretched feeling in my chest, I couldn’t help but burrow closer. My lashes fluttering to a close as he murmured my name. I swallowed the lump in my throat and let my hands fall as he placed me on the table.The sweet happiness that made me so giddy I ran from him was gone. And in its place a small hole. Pettiness, anger, and jealousy clawed at my chest. His shirt had ridden up less than an inch more and I would be on full display. My gaze trailed up the ridges and dips of his abdomen. Beneath the light, I noticed the light markings of scars on the back of his biceps and arms. Muscles turned to broad shoulders, but my gaze locked on my mark.Shane is mine.Always has been.Always
Go to Hell ~ LetdownAdeaThe silence was deafening. It was so still, you could hear a pin drop. Just an arm’s length away, his slow breaths filled the silence as Shane hovered behind me. I refused to look at him just yet. My emotions waged war within me. Did I want to yell or cry? I needed a moment. Closing my eyes, I took several deep breaths, trying and failing to calm myself down.Breathe in.1…2…3…4…Hold.1…2…3…4…Exhale.1…2…3…4…The damn breathing thing thing wasn’t working. Back when Gabe and I first came here, he taught me this breathing technique to help with my panic attacks. Instead of pushing thoughts of him away, it did the opposite. Every time I inhaled, I got lungfuls of Shane, his presence surrounded me. Demolishing the wall of safety I tried so hard to build up. As if he heard the wall come tumbling down, he stepped closer. The heat came off of him in waves, cutting through the short distance and caressed me. It was so hard to be mad at him, but my mind and
My skin heated, and it felt as if my blood were boiling. I don’t know which part I was more angry about. This woman being here in my space, the supposed plan to remove her from the premises, or the way Shane called her name. Was it a nickname? Maybe it was all the above that truly pissed me off. My gaze locked with Gabe’s and I gave him the ‘Am I the only one insane here?’ look, but he just shook his head reassuringly. So either I wasn’t, or the two of us were both equally crazy. Turning my focus back to Beka, I waited impatiently for what she’d say. My lip curled as she softened her eyes and pouted.“When you didn’t come back, I was worried. On top of that, you didn’t answer any of my texts.” She hunched her shoulders, making herself appear smaller. We’re taught this at a young age to show an aggressive male we were weak and meant no harm. My skin crawled as she leaned into him, invading his space. I bit back the whine in my throat as my insecure thoughts swirled through my mind.Is s
I am not okay ~ Jelly RollAdeaKorra caught her scent before I could, and she was seething. Alarm bells were going off. There was a female in our mate’s suite. I didn’t know when it happened, but we had claimed not only Shane, but this area as ours. Only those we allowed were permitted to be here, and this woman wasn’t supposed to be here. My wolf snarled and snapped her fierce jaws at the uninvited guest. Normally, I can keep her under control, but right now, it felt like we were one and the same.Her anger, her hate, her pain, her need to draw blood—all of it was mine.My eyes trailed up from her red Jimmy Choos, along her thin yet muscular legs, to the white skirt that left nothing to the imagination, past her breasts that were barely covered by an uncountable number of diamonds. Red-kissed lips with a perfect cupid’s bow jutted out in a pout that matched her heels, blue eyes that instantly zoned in on Shane, and too-straight princess blonde hair flowed down her back.Still, she wo
