[Lennox’s POV]"Surprised?" Vince asked, breaking the silence that had fallen around us. "You see, Hana asked me not to tell you."Hana.Shock rolled through me as I realized that she was the woman that Silas had loved in the past. What were the actual chances of something like this happening? We we
[Lennox’s POV]"Did you just say?" Hana gasped, slowly regaining her composure. "Mate?""I did."If Hana wanted to sit here and pretend to be Silas’s one true love, then I would happily crush that hope. Maybe he was hers in the past, but from here on out, he would be mine, and I would be damned if I
[Silas’s POV]I kept my expression neutral as Vince tried to determine if what I had just said was true or not. For me, this was enough to show that he was definitely guilty of something, but I couldn’t let him know that I was already on to him. For now, I needed him to continue with his attacks unt
[Silas’s POV]"Come on." Lennox insisted, holding out her hand for Grandma to take. "It’s time to go."Nodding, Grandma began to move but stopped as the sound of a chain rattling filled the room. Frowning, she looked down at her ankle and took in the cuff that wrapped around it."Can’t," she murmure
[Lennox’s POV]"Who says I need protecting?"Letting a slow smile spread across my face, I waited as Silas’s expression went from determined to shocked and then to amused."Yes, yes." He laughed, relaxing in his seat. "How could I have forgotten that my little runaway isn’t a damsel in distress?" He
[Silas’s POV]I watched as Lennox stayed by Grandma’s bedside, humming a lullaby as Grandma slowly drifted off to sleep. This had been going on for a good thirty minutes now, and I couldn't help but wonder if it would soon turn into all night.After returning home, I had a room prepared and then all
[Lennox’s POV]"I don’t think we can wait until the full moon ball to infiltrate Caelum." I murmured.Now that we knew Clinton Lancaster was being held prisoner there, we needed to go as soon as possible."You’re right." Silas sighed. "But we don’t know where my uncle is being held."Deflating, I re
[Silas’s POV]My dick throbbed as I stared at Lennox’s round ass as she waited for me to take her from behind. Fuck, she was sexy, especially bent over my desk like this."Beg me." I growled, beginning to undo my pants. "I want to know how badly you want me in you.""Please," Lennox whimpered, begin
Nodding, I take a deep breath and rush to Ayla’s side while Gwen begins the operation, and after a few minutes have passed, I hear a shriek fill the air before she is lifting a tiny creature into the air and handing it over to Brian to clean while she cuts the bloody cord attached.Once she is finis
[Aera’s POV]9 months Late"Mmm, Aera, right there."Ayla’s voice echoes around me, spurring my movements even more. Knowing she was enjoying what I was doing to her was all the encouragement I needed."Ah!" she gasps, leaning more into the chair in front of her. "Not so hard."Chuckling, I lean for
When I reach my parents, their faces fill with relief, and I feel my heart squeeze. Even though they hadn’t spoken a word about everything that happened, I was sure that they were now expecting me to snap at any given second. I still had a lot of making up to do in order to gain everyone’s trust an
[Celia’s POV] I stare up into Alphonze’s dark, unreadable eyes while trying to figure out exactly what I was feeling. Was I just caught by surprise because he suddenly appeared, and that was why I suddenly felt jittery and my heart was racing? Right, that had to be it; there couldn’t be anything e
This had been proof to me that we were intended to be together since we didn’t meet just once by chance but twice.After that, I approached her and began to woo her since I couldn’t stand the thought of losing her. It was a love that I never imagined could exist, let alone for me, but she made me so
[Alphonze’s POV]I stand to the side, watching as everyone present for the evening enjoys themselves, laughing, dancing, and being merry. It had been a while since I had attended something like this, so it was taking a bit to get used to it again.The last time I came to a full moon ball was when I
"It seems that your date for this evening has arrived," Alphonze announces, clapping me on the shoulder. "I wouldn’t distract you any longer."Nodding, I give him a look and don’t miss the sorrow that flashes in his eyes as he looks from Ayla to me."Hold on as tight as you can because you never kno
[Aera's POV]Soft music drifts toward me as I stand to the side of the large ballroom, waiting for my date to arrive.Despite all the chaos that had been happening in our world, Silas and Alphonze insisted that we have a small, intimate gathering for the full moon as a way to relax and unwind after
[Ayla's POV]The next day, I sit in the passenger seat of Aera's car, staring at Crimsone Tides Estate while fighting the urge to run away. When I entered that building, I'd be making the toughest decision of my life, and I wasn't exactly sure if I was ready.Beside me, Aera remains silent while hol
