Think of your mother, Becca said.“I need you to leave us alone,” Drago asked Lion and the old man left.“I'll leave too; I came to see if everyone was okay,” Rose said and wiped away my tears. “No matter what happens, you have a forever home here.”The offer was like a cure for my soul and I nodded
NadineHaving mates was complete madness.There was no better graphic description than that.My four mates looked at me with annoyance. Even Aris, who was to be the most careful and understanding with me, had not shied away from showing me his disappointed expression.“You are a beautiful woman, a g
“It's very noble work; do you do it alone?” I asked her, impressed.“Connor helps me, as does Aaron or Aris,” Rose said. “They have powers that help keep the greenhouse in the right condition to care for the plants.”I nodded with a smile.“I can imagine,” I said as I trimmed some ornamental plants.
NadineNadine had a strong character.It was easy for me to empathize with what she went through as a child.I had lost my parents in a tragic way, so I knew how she felt about her mother's death, and after discovering why the Anarkhia Order was hunting her, I understood her reluctance, yet I was ve
It was not very difficult to do so.“The shield of protection will keep them from approaching and confuse them,” I told Biel and Drago.Biel frowned.“What kind of magic did they use with this place?” asked Biel skeptically.“Ancestral magic and the gods themselves were the ones who created the magi
BielWhen Nadine decided not to come down for dinner, I knew she didn't feel like dealing with us.I didn't know if it was good to have her away, although a part of me was begging to look for her.Because of our arrangement, we were comfortable with the fact that our rooms were close to Nadine's roo
“I came to see if you hadn't run away,” I said just for the pleasure of teasing her.“What will you do if I run away?” She asked and approached me boldly. “Are you going to hunt me down to turn me over to the Order and have them kill me for insurgents, or are you going to hunt me down because you wa
I raised my eyebrows in surprise, not understanding where he had gotten the book or why he wanted me to read it.“With what intention do you want me to have it?”“To give you a better understanding of Nadine,” Drago said. “There are interesting theories about her powers. Rose gave it to me; she rece
Hakan laughed in amusement.“She's going to burn forever when I steal the gods' powers and assassinate them,” Hakan said. “She'll understand why being a god's whore is inconvenient.”“My parents were mates,” I said angrily, and Hakan raised his eyebrows.“You consider the god of chaos your father?”
Nadine“You don't have to do this if you want me to collaborate,” I said immediately, and Hakan raised his eyebrows.“Say no more, Nadine,” Biel said, and Hakan looked at Aria.Aria pulled Elle's blonde hair hard, and my friend cried out in pain.I noticed that her hair was dirty and had dried blood
“Impossible,” Biel said. “The shields were extinguished by the war.”“That's false,” Hakan said. “My maternal family is descended from a very strong lineage of Shields. It was decided to keep the secret for generations to preserve our existence because the Temple ordered our death. Nadia did not kno
I shook my head; my mother had never told me any of that. On the contrary, she spoke highly of my grandmother.“I don't believe that,” I said doubtfully.“Whether you believe me or not is your business, but that's not going to stop me from telling you what I lived through and witnessed,” Hakan said
NadineSeeing Lion's body on the ground brought back bad memories.I couldn't help but watch as a large pool of blood formed around him. I didn't know what kind of spell it was, but I knew very well that even though Lion had died, his blood was still flowing out of his orifices like water flowing in
I realized that all my mates were conveying calm and restraint.“We have to see what the anarchists want,” Biel said earnestly.“Death would be somewhat benevolent of their true intentions,” I replied sincerely.At that moment the time loop ceased, and the man who had trapped us in it was dressed di
NadineDrago's words gave me chills.Aris couldn't get into Drago's mind, and when I saw his stern expression, I knew things were going to get complicated. My dragon was telling the truth, and that was terrible on misunderstood levels.Drago vomited again and threw up everything in his stomach.“Nac
“We need to send a message to the priests and the mission guardians; we need to go back to replan everything,” Lion said. “Let's wait for him where we left them.”I felt the trip was a waste of time.So we walked to the place where we had arrived; we did it calmly, without haste, and trying to be as
We all felt and followed him.When we reached the vault, I stopped as an icy cold flooded my body, and I had a vision of the sacred cloak being carried out of the Temple.“What's wrong?” asked Biel, seeing that I had frozen near the stairs.“The cloak was taken out of the vault,” I said confidently.
