Dustin

Elita’s breath hitches, her body pressing closer to mine as if trying to shield me from the past. “ What happened next? ”

It’s funny how this petite girl is trying to hide a big man like me. She thinks she can…just…protect me. She can’t really do that, but I want her to continue her efforts.

“ I don’t know how, but the water healed me. I rose from the sea without a single wound, and the people… they called me a God. But I didn’t care about their words. All I wanted was to save Avi. She was on the rocks, bleeding out, and I couldn’t lose her. ” My voice softens, thick with emotion. “ I swam to her, desperate to reach her, but something happened in those moments. Reality…shifted. I saw flashes of another life. A life where I wasn’t just Dustin. A life…I had lived a long time ago as Sivash Landric. And then, just as quickly as it came, it was gone. The memories disappeared, but the feeling lingered. This sense that I had a purpose. That I had to protect something…the world, my pe

    ElitaThe air between us charges with tension as Dustin traces a path of kisses along my forehead, my cheeks, the corners of my mouth, and the curve of my jaw. Each one feels like a vow—a promise that he won’t let me go. His lips burn against my skin, leaving a trail of warmth that sinks deep into the coldest parts of me. My heart pounds against my ribcage, and before I know it, I am pushing my face into the crook of his neck, hiding from the intensity of his touch.What is he doing to me? This is not normal. I scream inside my head.But he doesn’t stop. His hands move down my arms before slipping under my shirt. The rough tips of his fingers brush against the scars along my sides, and I shiver—not from the cold, but from the raw vulnerability of the moment. Heat pools in my belly as his thumbs run along the underside of my breasts, just so close to touching me but never quite enough. His voice is soft, coaxing as he whispers. “ I told you everything you wanted to know. Now, it’s

    ElitaA self-deprecating smile lights my lips as I open my eyes and look down at Dustin’s hands. His breaths stop fanning my neck as if he is holding them in.“ I remember being numb, cold, and shocked at first. I thought so hard about it and tried to remember anything, but nothing came to me. Then, the panic set in. And I rushed to Akuji… ” I choke on his name, my hands clenching into fists. “ but before I got to him, he had already spread rumors that we had… that I had slept with him. In that time, when I was considered Levian’s woman even when I had no real intimate relationship with Levian…it was like Akuji won a trophy by sleeping with me. The vampires and humans who already looked down on me were delighted with that rumor because they could finally call me a whore…a woman who cheated on their King. And I couldn’t…I couldn’t tell anyone otherwise. Who would have believed me? I couldn’t even remember it clearly myself. ”Dustin lets out a low growl, the sound vibrating against my

    Elita“ Maybe, Levian finally felt something was wrong with me, and he didn’t want me to drown anymore. So he let me see the Princes. Just the three of them. ” I sigh, shifting my focus to the sky again.“ What were they like in that time? ” Dustin leans away, and his lips brush the tip of my ear again.A smile tugs at the corner of my lips. The Princes were not anything he would ever expect at all. They were…innocent, but they lacked the warmth children usually carry with them. The eyes of the eldest Prince—Prince Ryder were cold, and I sensed the hostility coming from him the first time I came across them.He was the only one among the children who remembered a little of his family, his parents, and his past. That’s why he didn’t like the vampires, or the humans, or anyone around him.But when he realized that I was a werewolf, he realized that they were not alone in this brutal world. They could rely on me. So, that child…He looked up to me, to protect them, to keep them safe, to

    Elita“ You do know how to ruin my mood. ” I scoff, tracing invisible circles in his palm with my thumb. “ Are you not going to tell me? ” He kisses the spot below my ear, his voice lowering.“ Nothing much. I started teaching the children about Lycans and werewolves secretly. They did not stay clueless about their parents. And it led to…kind of a disaster. That Aleister’s brother escaped and ended up trying to take off with the children. Levian was gone again, but this time, I was not as clueless either. I found out that…I could not bring my brother and sister back because, for that, I needed to sacrifice something big and…I didn’t have anything like that. I was ordinary, and so I did what ordinary people could do to take revenge. ” I shrug, heaving a heavy breath after blurting it all out.“ You helped them? ” Dustin questions.“ I tried to help them. And they…almost got away but…I didn’t know what plans they actually had. Just as they got a little away from the vampire territory,

    ElitaDustin carries me all the way back to the cottage, his hold gentle, as if he’s afraid I might shatter in his arms. My head rests against his shoulder, and though the warmth of his body is comforting, I am still sulking over his earlier antics. When he finally lays me down on the bed, I catch a glimpse of his face and look away instantly. Without a word, he turns around and heads toward the bathroom, leaving me alone in the dark room.I lie there under the blanket, staring at the ceiling first, then at the wall. My fingers idly trace circles on the fabric of the blanket. My thoughts keep drifting to everything we have shared tonight. The oversharing is embarassing me now, but it’s not because Dustin made me feel inadequate but because…I can’t believe I really told him everything.The sound of running water ceases, and a few moments later, the bed dips behind me. My heart flutters for a moment, but when I glance over my shoulder, I realize he is lying on the far edge of the be

    ElitaThe rest of the day is lazy and filled with so much annoyance that it leaves me grumbling with each breath. I wander through the market of the ancient wolf tribe, just checking out the booths filled with leather goods, intricate jewelry, and weapons.Tyson follows behind me, his presence something I can’t really ignore. I glance back at him once, catching the way his lips twitch upward in a smirk. I narrow my eyes, getting tired of him already.“ You are having too much fun with this… ” I accuse, holding up a delicate bracelet made of stones before setting it back down.He tilts his head, pretending to be hurt. “ And what’s ‘this,’ exactly? ”“ Following me around like a lost puppy. ” I scoff, stomping to the next shop, where he follows me like usual. “ Lost? ” Tyson scoffs, feigning offense this time. “ No, my Lady. I know exactly where I am going. I am just doing my friend a favor by keeping an eye on what he called ‘trouble’ early this morning. ”“ He called me trouble? Why

    ElitaI keep an eye on Dustin for the rest of the day while actively avoiding him. If he had come across me, and held me like he did this morning, I would have spilled all the beans definitely.And that’s not what I want right now.The moment Dustin leaves the cottage at night, my mind doesn’t rest. I pace from one end of the room to the other, several thoughts occupying my mind. I know exactly where he has gone. Karlias. He is meeting with Karlias. And as much as I trust Dustin to handle himself, there is something about this entire situation that gnaws at me. And Dustin’s repeated tendency to make sacrifices doesn’t help this situation either. I can’t sit still any longer. Grabbing the shawl that was delivered with the clothes this morning, I throw it over my shoulders and sneak out of the cottage, careful enough to not come across any of the Kings.My destination is clear—the market.

    Dustin My senses are sharp, tuned into every sound, every movement caught in the net of my awareness. I can feel her—Elita—back at the cottage. Restless, probably plotting something already. The thought amuses me, but it’s gone as quickly as it comes. There is no room for distraction. Not when I am walking straight into the lion’s den. Karlias is waiting for me when I enter his office. He doesn’t bother with pleasantries, and neither do I. We are long past that. “ You took your time… ” He says, his voice controlled. I let the corner of my mouth lift in a smirk, but it doesn’t reach my eyes. “ I didn’t realize I was on a schedule. ” Karlias leans back in his chair, his eyes studying me. “ You have been making quite an impression on my people. Sparring with Kalix…That was bold. ” “ He challenged me. ” I reply with a nonchalant shrug. “ I was not going to let him question my strength. ” Karlias chuckles, but there is no humor in that. “ And now they are whispering your name like

    Elita“ Do you know… ” Dustin’s hand lowers to my cheek before he rubs his thumb across my bottom lip. “ …women in the North call me a gentleman. I am gentle with women, and I never do or say dirty things. ”The sense of doom crashes over me. I try to move, but he is still above me, caging me between his thighs this time, making sure I can not move an inch without his permission.This should send my mind into a state of panic, but instead…it drives me crazy with need. With him, I have truly become someone I don’t recognize.“ What do you want? ” I whisper, my tongue flicking out and brushing his thumb.I notice the way his eyes watch my mouth as if he is in deep thought. The hunger in his eyes intensifies, burning so hard that it almost steals all air from my lungs.“ What— ”“ Your smart mouth. ” Dustin interrupts. I gasp, my face flushing. My chest heaves heavily, my nipples tightening as his words sink in.“ You— ”“ I have never used my mouth on a woman before. But I did it for y

    Elita“ Did you just— ” My back arches off the bed, as Dustin’s warm breaths hit my moist core. “ did you just hit me there? ”My head rolls back, my eyes threatening to close against the sharp pleasure. But his voice keeps me in the moment, forcing me to focus on every breath, every movement.“ I can kiss it better if you are that offended. ” Dustin murmurs, his voice dropping.“ W—What— ” I gasp loudly as he plants an open mouth kiss on my clit. It’s like everything inside me is tuned to that one, throbbing, drenched spot. His breaths are still warming me.“ Say my name. The moment you stop saying it, I will stop too… ” His lips brush my clit with each raspy word. “ Wha— ”His tongue sticks out, licking a path up. My head goes blank, and the energy in my limbs disappears. It’s like someone snatches my soul and then slams it back into my body. My toes curl, my heels lifting off the bed but his hands wrap around my thighs and push my body down again.“ My name, Elita. ” He nibbles

    ElitaWhen the Kings told me that Dustin beat that poor Elf up, I didn’t really take it serious. I told myself secretly that Dustin was more angry about Tyson than jealous about me.But tonight, he has proved me wrong.The way he moved, using the extent of his power, to become a blur and grab Kalix before any of us could see him coming…The way he choked him…And the way he looked so ready to murder him…It cements a strange thought. Dustin Landric was tolerant of men before, but now when he thinks we have gotten too close to be comfortable with each other, he can’t stand it when I am close to another man.It drives him crazy. And crazy is not a good look on him.I don’t know if he noticed, but the temperature in Kalix’s house dropped and it felt like everything was going to freeze to death. But the moment I wrapped myself around Dustin as a last resort, the temperature went down again.And then, he just started dragging me away.Now, we are here, inside the cottage but he is not stop
