NadineI woke up with pain in my body and with the desire to hit all my mates.Only bloodthirsty ones made me train the day before leaving, so I cursed through my teeth as we gathered the necessary things, we would take with us. Worst of all, I had my period and the pains were becoming a pain in my
I ignored her and sat by the counter to watch Drago make his tea because I had nothing better to do. what I didn't expect was for the dragon to pour tea in a cup and hand it to me.“It's a tea that will help with the pain of menstruation,” Drago said and I looked at him with my mouth open.“I—”“Don
“And why don't we use magic-core weapons?” I asked seeing that everything was completely analogous.“Because we don't know what the true extent of the curse on the wasteland is,” Biel said. “If the place nullifies elemental powers, it's possible it nullifies pure magic altogether, so we should avoid
DragoWe walked to the sacred grotto that connected our entire world.I realized that no one was able to see it as Taina and I saw it until I saw Biel frowning, Connor looking on slyly, and Aris and Nadine looking on in surprise. The others didn't seem to be aware of where they were, so it was an ex
Taina's words shook Nadine, and then she immediately backed away.Connor was about to go after her, but Aris stopped him.“Let her process everything on her own,” the vampire advised him.“I don't want to be a mate who is painting on the wall,” Connor said annoyed.“And you won't be, but Nadine need
Taina's healing power permeated Nadine, and she was surprised, so I looked at my friend more than grateful.“What did you just do?” asked Nadine, impressed to see her skin glowing brightly.“It gave you a bardic blessing of purification and protection,” said Samir, one of the guardians who would sta
NadineI had seen a way out of the hostile wasteland; what I did not imagine was that the ghouls I had dreamed of were real. Fear encapsulated me, despite the realization that the ghouls were not as large as in my dreams, and that caused me to be quickly caught.My first genuine reaction was to scre
I sighed deeply and brought my hands closer together.“I don't know how it's done, but you have to pull on the bond between you; feeling the connection will cause the protection to kick in, and when the bond senses that one of you is hurt, it will start with a healing process,” Lion said. “Or in the
“That's not the topic of conversation here; no matter what you guys think, the truth is simple, and even if you don't like it, we won, so Nadine is going to give me her damn powers,” Hakan said.The shapeshifters dragged a human woman who was pure bones.The woman didn't seem to be fully aware of wh
DragoWhen I saw Hakan's surprised reaction, I knew I had bought time for us.I was badly hurt, but I didn't let them play with my head.I had millennia of practice resisting torture, so I knew very well what I was doing. Biel coughed in pain, but I could see his look of recognition. He nodded subtl
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
