NadineThe day of Ophelia's death had finally arrived.Everyone in the Eclipse Pack was serious and waiting for the retinue that would bring Ophelia to Connor to carry out her final sentence. The pack council was silent at all times, which said a lot about the customs of the place.It was Aris who e
That annoyed me, so I stood in front of him defensively and made her look at me. The little bitch smiled, and I bared my teeth at her.What she was pretending to do with my mate was unheard of, and at that moment, blind rage came over me.“I can't believe the whore you share with other men has to de
NadineTraveling on a ship was not in my plans.I knew what it was like to be inside a ship long enough to fear the sea. My mother had moved me from one continent to another as we abruptly moved places as a way to avoid anarchists.It had been a difficult experience, but my mother transformed it int
Drago frowned.“You're upset; I sense your upset,” Drago said, and Connor nodded.“I sense you're upset too,” Connor said, and I cursed through my teeth at the strong connection of our bond.“I'm upset because you tried to solve a problem without considering the opinion of others,” I said seriously,
NadineIt was cold, cold enough for Drago and Biel to put on furs.Connor and I scowled at each other before laughing at our biological advantage, while Aris just slurped the blood he had jealously guarded in the ship's hold. I still didn't really understand how his feeding worked, but it wasn't to
“Let him sleep there; he must be mentally exhausted,” the vampire said and sat down next to me. “Connor is going to be fine.”I sighed and nodded, then Aris took my hand and gave him a kiss that completely melted me.He was about to say something to me when suddenly the boat started rocking wildly b
Minutes later, Biel had pushed the water bubble toward what appeared to be an island, and Drago landed near the beach. When he changed to his human form, the dragon ran up to me and checked me fearfully.“I'm fine, really, but I think Biel is not as well as he wants us to believe,” I said, and Drago
NadineI coughed as I came out of the water.Aris hadn't let go of my hand for anything in the world; that was a blessing because I felt like I was going to drown. And so bad was my discomfort that I couldn't help but throw up everything in my stomach.“You've swallowed a lot of salt water,” Aris sa
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.
