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
I was trembling with fear at that point, so Aris no doubt walked over to me and hugged me. He didn't give me the warmth that a warm body is capable of giving me, but he gave me a chance to cry.“I'm sorry, Nadine, I shouldn't have left you alone,” Aris said as he wiped away my tears. “Do you want to
I felt my body boil, and I didn't know if it was what Becca had said earlier, but I felt myself lusting after Aris. The vampire sensing my desire simply let go and let me pick up the pace. That was nice for me.“You're greedy,” Aris said and suddenly bit my lip.I saw him tense up, and his eyes went
I smiled at the mark, and at that moment I knew I would be happy, no matter what.We went to a small party at my parents' house and celebrated with all our friends. Elle wasted no time in dancing with the guardians and having fun as she knew how to do.At that moment I knew everything was going to b
“Loving you was as easy as breathing, wanting you is vital, but having you by my side is the best thing that would ever happen to me, and that's why I want to make it official,” Connor said so sweetly, and I had to hold back the hiccups.“I never thought you would exist. In my time walking the earth
NadineSix months had passed since a momentous change in Xalaris.After that meeting, there was a great assembly that was televised to the whole world, and the gods decided to bow to me and my mates as a sign of respect. In my father's humble words, just because I am not the goddess of the gods, tha
“It really doesn't work the way it should work,” my father said without letting the elf finish speaking, and he opened the box he had gotten Biel. “The Anarkhia Order has been an imminent danger. We were able to take away the source of their strength, but they still move among us.”My father took th
We hurried, and Drago teleported us to the temple. We left the hunter along with Alex and Rex, who had moved with the guards and my father.“Go at once,” Rex said imperatively and I knew the attack had been serious.We all left without my mother.Aris looked very anxious, so Drago hurried and when w
NadineMy first instinct was to run toward the explosion in search of my mates.It was only the fact that I hadn't felt pain again that didn't make me react immediately. My fear was so strong that I instantly dug inside myself to pull at the link that connected me to them, and even though I knew tha
I looked at Drago in surprise.“How did that hunter end up here?” asked Connor.“His adoptive mother was a dragon, and he knew all the terrain,” Aris said. “He feels safe in this place because he knows dragons don't usually frequent it, so he created a subway cave. We need to inform the dragon counc
“Are you all right?” asked I. “Is something wrong?”She denied it but then smiled at us.“I'd like to thank you,” the girl said, and I raised my eyebrows in surprise. “You guys sacrificed yourselves to save us all, and I'm very happy to still be alive. I'm sure you won't remember, but for all of us,
NadineThe five days of non-aggression were over.We were all summoned to the Temple by the gods, and we were not to miss it.Aris, my mother, and I changed our clothes in a hurry when Drago came to pick us up. We were both nervous because of the situation. We didn't know what had happened, and we h
