Damian.Falling asleep next to Ivy is one of the most incredible feelings I had ever been able to be a part of. I wasn't the greatest of men. In fact, I was the type of man that didn't even deserve a girl like Ivy.I had messed up big time with her.I had treated her wrong and deserved every bit of
Perhaps that was just my biased opinion, though, since I was her mate.With the elder coming, though, there was no way we could allow this behavior to happen. If it did, there was no telling what she would report back to the Council, and there was no reassuring the fact Ivy would remain safe.Inhali
"I'm not acting like anything, Talon," I growled at him. "I'm merely stating facts. We have to be careful."With a drink in his hand, Hale sighed, running his other hand through his hair. "Let's stop arguing. She will hear us."Taking a deep breath, I reined in my anger and took a moment to compose
Ivy.I wasn't sure exactly how I was supposed to feel. Last night, I did the one thing I hadn't expected to do in quite some time. I allowed myself to go too hungry, and in the end, I ended up hunting another animal that was slaughtered without mercy to sustain the hunger burrowed inside of me.Ever
She looked at him with a curious glance, and a smug expression crossed her face. "Don't worry, I'm sure that the accommodations are more than acceptable. Shall we go, my dear?"Looking between Elder Harrison and Damian, I slowly nodded my head and gestured for her to continue following me. There was
"I'm sorry, but I didn't cook this," I said to Elder Harrison, trying to contain my laughter."Oh, dear. I'm so sorry. You must have an excellent cook, then. Nowadays, it's hard to hire people who can decently cook." Her comment further caused the snickering around the table, and slowly she furrowed
I hadn't expected dinner to go the way it had. But now that it was over, I was glad, considering Damien ended up blowing up into a million different pieces when the elder had conversations in the way she did.Talk about being completely awkward. I was the center of the awkwardness, and it was not a
With wide eyes, I turned my gaze back to Hale, who seemed uncomfortable, and quickly cleared his throat. "I mean, it could happen. I don't want to risk it.""Hale, you won't hurt your children nor any other part of you.""Still, I don't want to risk it," he said firmly as Talon pulled me by the ankl
“Thank you for taking care of him,” she muttered. Tatum rolled his eyes behind her as if unable to believe perhaps that she was saying what she was. The entire situation caused the heat of embarrassment to rush over my cheeks as I cleared my throat.“It’s no problem…but I’m pretty sure it’s he who
“Excuse me,” a soft voice said from the door catching both of our attention. “I heard that.”Cassie stood before us in a long light-blue gown encrusted with gems. Her long hair was in curls half up on her head as the white silver leafed crown sat glittering on top. She looked so far different that
TaylorWhen Tatum came crawling back into the room somewhere near dawn, I’d been wary of where he had gone. I had awoken to an empty space in the bed next to me, and no word as to where had disappeared. Though, when he had come back and told me that I was to head off to the Fae realm in the morning,
She leaned forward, a thoughtful expression adorning her features. “You know the complexities of the realms, the obligations and duties that bind us. I know you love her and you want her to stay, but things aren't that easy, Tate. We need her there. We need her to help fix things before the girls ri
TatumI hadn’t expected Brina to show up at my door looking for answers. At first I was annoyed that my sister would overstep boundaries in order to make things happen between Brina and me. Of course, I was head over heels for this girl. My heart slowly slipped into a bliss like state of happiness
I didn’t need time to think about what he asked. The answer would always be, “Yes. A thousand times, yes.”Time seemed to stand still as our hunger for each other turned into a fury of torn clothing and touches. His hands roamed my body, gripping and grabbing as I pleaded with him to please me. To
Panic filled me with his question. Yes, I had rehearsed what I was going to say, but now that the moment presented itself I was acting like a fool. My mind was completely blank when it came to the plan I was going to stick to.“Uh, well…I wasn’t sure about the customs of the Fae. I was going to ask
Standing outside Tatum’s door, my heart pounded in my chest. The hallway felt suffocating, the air heavy with anticipation. I had rehearsed the words I wanted to say a hundred times, each time hoping to find the courage to confront the man that had helped me recover who I was. A man who helped me to
Taylor Settling into the plush light-blue armchair in Cassie’s room, I took in the grand splendor of the apartment-like suite around me. The decor spoke of royalty and sophistication, with gilded accents and rich fabrics adorning every surface. The soft glow of candlelight flickered, casting an et
