[Fineon’s POV]As Tyson’s voice echoed out around us, I kept my gaze fixed directly on Hindrick’s smug one. Even though I knew that doing this seemed ridiculous, there was no way that I wasn’t going to do it, not after that one word kept dancing in my head.When I finally found Fallon, I was too anx
[Fallon’s POV]I sat alone on my bed, staring out the window at the bright moon shining over the ocean beneath it. It was a beautiful sight, and if my mind wasn’t a complete mess, I would have been able to find myself getting lost in the peace of it.However, tonight was different. Three times alrea
"What…" I whimper, my heart clenching painfully. "How can…"‘She is all he sees,’ the voice in my head continues. ‘He’s been in love with her for so many years; do you really think that just because your mate bond has awakened, that will change?’The words hit me like a knife, stabbing deep into my
[Fineon’s POV]Fallon’s body, which pressed against mine, shook as her arms tightened around me and her fingertips dug deeper into my skin.I remained unmoving, trying to understand exactly what was going on with her. Since her arrival in my room, she seemed off, but when she started rejecting my to
[Fallon’s POV]"Ah, yes, Fineon!" I scream, tightening my legs around his waist. "Harder, please, harder!"Grunting, Fineon did exactly what I asked, slamming his dick so deeply into me that I was sure he was going to end up breaking me in half, but it still wasn’t enough. I wanted to become oblivio
[Fineon’s POV]The sound of soft whimpering wakes me from my sleep, drawing my attention straight to the woman lying completely naked beside me.At first, I didn't quite understand what was happening, but it didn't take me long to find the reason for her distress.Sucking in a breath, I watch in hor
[Fallon’s POV]My heart squeezes painfully as I look into Hindrick’s eyes."Hindrick?" I whisper, taking a few steps toward him but stopping as he lets out a growl. "Please tell him that he’s wrong.""I wish he was," Hindrick snaps. "Although there was one thing he was wrong about."One thing… Somet
Demons… Frowning, I fix my gaze on Hindrick’s again and can see the disgust and hatred that flash in his eyes. And despite wishing that those emotions were meant for someone else, I know that they’re all toward his own self."Since all has been revealed, I guess that I should say the one thing I’ve
"Life doesn’t work that way, sis," I sigh, forcing a smile. "And once I graduate from the academy, I plan on joining Uncle Elleric’s forces, so I won’t have time to think about things like love." "So you’re going to follow behind her," Fallon murmurs, not seeming pleased at all. "You’re going to fo
[Idris’ POV] "Are you sure you’re going back?" Mom’s eyes begin to fill with tears as she waits for a response. I don’t know exactly what she expects me to say. "Yes, I am. It’s been a month since Mateo and his underlings were killed, and the academy is finally reopening. As a student, I am requi
"Hindrick," Heather growls, coming to Utica’s defense. "I’m sure there was a reason that she did it. Why do you always have to be so nasty with anyone who isn’t Fallon?"Flinching, I keep my expression neutral while Heather’s glare burns daggers into me."Did you know?" I ask. "Or are you going to c
[Hindrick’s POV]"Welcome back!"Uncle Elleric doesn’t wait before he pulls me into a hug, crushing me against him and making me extremely uncomfortable.Growling, I work to break free, and once I manage to achieve my goal, I take a few steps back."Ever the stoic," he chuckles, taking me in. "Can’t
"He…" Fineon sighs, his frustration returning. "Gave me an earful about going off like this during such an important time for you."So dad was thinking about the upcoming alpha ceremony that I would be completing. That was kind of him, but I didn’t want him to guilt Fineon into thinking that he need
[Fallon’s POV]A month passed in a blur before things were finally beginning to become normal once again. With things being so hectic, I didn’t get to see much of Fineon since he seemed to always be busy, but this time when we met, I wasn’t going to let him go until he told me what it was that he wa
"Dad." For the second time that day, everyone was left in shock as a voice that we weren’t sure we would ever hear again reached our ears. "Leave Callie alone," Idris continues, joining Fallon to protect her. "Think of what Cyrus would want and get your shit together!" "Idris," Gale sobs, attacki
[Fineon’s POV] Returning home was a bittersweet thing, given the circumstances we were returning under. Whether it should have been a time of celebration, it was instead a moment of saying welcome back and saying goodbye. As we made landfall and began to unload, Fallon rushed off to see her parent
Growing quiet, Fineon lifts his gaze in time for the light to explode out of Mount Malum, erasing the dark clouds that remained in the sky above and allowing a brilliant blue to peek through."It’s magic," I murmur, feeling the warmth of it pressing against my skin. "Do you think it is Mateo’s final
