Dustin

The room is quiet, save for the soft rhythm of Elita’s breathing. Her chest rises and falls beneath the sheets, her hair fanning out over my pillow like a halo, and I can’t look away.

I sit at the edge of the bed, my elbows resting on my knees as I watch her. The moonlight filters through the window, casting a silvery glow over her face. Her lashes are shadows against her cheeks, her lips slightly parted, tempting in ways I can barely comprehend.

She is too still, too peaceful, and I hate how much I want to ruin that peace.

I lean forward, my hand gripping the edge of the bed as I watch her. Her lips are slightly parted, soft, and tempting. They have been driving me insane all night, and the craving to taste them burns hotter than ever.

Leaning forward, I rest my elbows on the bed, the ache inside me intensifying with every second that passes. The urge to touch her is maddening, clawing at the edges of my self-control.

I want to run my fingers along the curve of her jaw, down

    ElitaThe first thing I notice as I stir awake is the warm weight of the blanket covering me, the soft sheets brushing against my skin. A strange sensation prickles along my spine, and I shift slightly, realizing just how sore my body feels. All that tiredness and the feeling of his fingers inside me still lingers. The memories from last night flash in my mind, and my cheeks heat. Dustin's touch, his words, the way he made me—No. Stop it, Elita.I attempt to sit up, but a strange sensation of being watched holds me back. Blinking against the golden light streaming through the windows, I glance towards the wing chair tucked in the corner of the room. My breath catches.Dustin.He is there, his large frame sprawled out, his head tilted to the side as he sleeps. The faint sunlight kisses his sharp features—the defined jaw, the slightly tousled dark hair, the relaxed curve of his lips. My heart stutters for reasons I don’t understand.Why is he sleeping there? I frown, pulling the she

    ElitaMy jaw hangs low. He did not just say that! But he did. What is wrong with him?!“ You are a pervert, Dustin Landric! The biggest pervert to ever walk in this world. ” I blurt, wrapping the sheet around me tighter.It’s like I am scared he will stroll over and snatch it away before having his way with me. Dustin’s smirk grows wider. “ And here I thought nothing could fluster you, Elita. But now I know your weakness. ” “ What weakness? ” I narrow my eyes on him.He steps closer, his voice dropping to a whisper. “ praises get you flustered. I am going to have so much fun exploiting that specific weakness. ”I gape at him, feeling my pulse quicken. “ Go have fun with someone else! I will never be in a mood to have fun with you. Never ever. Do you understand? NEVER! ”“ We will see. ” He shrugs, still smug and confident.“ Oh, I see. The mate bond is making you lose your mind. And you are all needy after last night. But you know what? You won’t get me into your bed no matter what y

    Elita“ We can’t leave the Kingdoms without their Kings for long. ” Alpha King Tyson voices out the concern.I lean back on the couch and glance around the room. Alpha King Aleister said he would leave today, but apparently, he is still around.By the dark look on his face, it’s clear that he didn’t want to stay, but the woman beside him made him anyway. That’s why she is caressing his hand now—it’s a subtle gesture, one that many don’t even notice, but it’s keeping the King grounded here, making it impossible for him to refuse her. If someone had told me Alpha King Aleister was a simp for a Princess, I wouldn’t have believed it. But seeing it from my eyes is different.He does what she wants even when he doesn’t want it. The other two Kings are not different either. Their mates heavily influence them, and they act as one instead of two separate people.I wonder…How that happens…“ How long will it take? ” Alpha King Striker asks, his gaze flickering towards me, then moving back to

    ElitaMy gaze switches between Avery, who is glaring at Dustin, and Aleister, whose jaw is clenched even more.This is bad. My nose scrunches. “ Alpha King Aleister does have that ability, or else, how would he have looked after his Kingdom for so long? With a place as treacherous as the South, he wouldn’t have remained a King if he was not absolutely the best of them. And Princess Avery—I mean Queen Avery only brings out the best in her mate because she is also the best! ”There there.This will save them the trouble of trying to strangle Dustin Landric.I smile as all eyes turn to me. Avery’s eyes narrow a little, but there is no anger in them while the rest look at me like I have grown two heads again.Sighing, I shift my focus on the troublemaker Northern King, only to find him shooting daggers at me. I blink rapidly.Am I seeing things?Is he glaring at me? In front of everyone? Why? What did I do? I open my mouth and close it, trying to understand why he looks so pissed off.

    ElitaThey did ask where I had to return. But I didn’t have to answer. Dustin understood it was time for my exit and dragged me away before they could investigate my final destination.“ We will leave tonight. ” He told me just that and then left too outside my room.I was supposed to get Felicity to pack everything I would take with me, but that felt like a meaningless task. That’s why I chose the better option. I wandered the Wolfshire Citadel and admired the carved ceilings, the high chandeliers, and the beauty that had remained even in my memory of ruins. Since I came here, this was the first time I explored the castle alone and roamed until I got lost in the maze-like corridors. And as I found myself in a high tower overlooking the calm sea, I realized one thing that I had never cared to think about before.The Moon Goddess said that she gave us all that we wished for. She did that for me, too. For years, without fail, I had wanted to see these castles in their full glory…I wan

    Elita“ Shouldn’t you be discussing things with your friends? ” I walk closer to the man standing close to the shore, looking at the sea.I think if I look for him, I will always find him near water. Another thing to be noted about him.“ Shouldn’t you be doing more women things like packing instead of exploring the Wolveshire Citadel? ” Dustin shoots back without glancing my way.I come to a stop beside him and huff. The strong breeze sways my hair, making me grab the strands falling into my eyes to hold them still.“ Who told you that I was exploring the castle? ” I wonder, and look at his side profile.He glances at me from the corner of his eyes. His brows lift as he notices me standing there, still gripping the strands of my hair. “ I don’t need anyone to tell me what happens in the castle. ” Dustin turns to face me and reaches up.Surprised, I almost stumble back but catch myself at the last moment. His eyes narrow as he grips my hands and pulls them away from my wild hair.“ O

    ElitaThe evening air carries a gentle chill, brushing against my face as I lean slightly forward on the horse. The forest around us is dark but alive, each rustle of leaves whispering secrets I am too tired to decipher. Dustin’s warmth presses against my back and his arms around my waist steady me as we travel on the same Stallion again.“ Did you see her too? ” I ask curiously, turning my head just enough to catch a glimpse of his sharp profile. His gaze doesn’t falter from the path ahead, his jaw tightening at my question. “ It’s personal. ” I let out a dramatic sigh and roll my eyes. “ Seriously? Personal? We have shared things way more personal than dreams about the Goddess, Dustin. You know…I see her in my dreams, too, so I am wondering if she comes into your dreams and tells you things. ”I wait for him to be curious or surprised or anything, but Dustin remains as calm as ever. And he doesn’t respond.The silence stretches, filling the space between us with something heavy,

    ElitaWe stayed there until a warrior from the Pack came to get them. When they left, a strange calm befell my heart. For some time, it felt like I could finally breathe without feeling a weight pressing down on my chest.It was because I believed what Dustin said. As long as he lived, no harm would ever come to my brother and sister. Even after I am gone, he will make sure that they are happy.I am finally leaving my siblings with someone who will not disappoint us. And with their sister, who will wake up after I leave, I am sure they will grow up into good adults. Those thoughts keep revolving in my head as we make our way back in silence. When we reach the Wolveshire Citadel, the night falls, and thick clouds hang in the sky.I crane my neck, my head pressing against his chest. Tonight, even with the stormy weather and no stars in sight, everything appears so beautiful and wholesome.“ I… ” I didn’t know you would count me as someone you had to make happy. I want to say, but I can

    ElitaOnce again in life, I am forced to realize that waiting is the hardest thing to do.Waiting for someone is like dragging your body over a bed of nails. It is slow. It is painful. It does not kill, but it leaves me writhing. Time stretches, moving too slow, making every breath feel heavy, every heartbeat feel too slow.The worst part of it?Not knowing if they are even coming back, or if I am waiting for nothing, or if I should do something instead of just…sitting around and waiting. I pace around in the throne room, occasionally watching the vacant throne, then turning to the window that overlooks the sea. The water has been too calm, for too long. It’s unnatural. It’s been…four days now. Four days since Dustin Landric forced me into returning to the North! And he is not back!I keep thinking…If I could get ahold of him right now...I would curse at him. I would strangle him. I would kiss him. And tell him if he ever did this again, I would hate him forever. It might be a l

    LevianSometimes, I do wonder. What’s the point of everything they do to fight back? The pride they hold onto, the dignity they so cherish, the trust they have in their Goddess…It’s childish. So naive, as if holding onto those ideals will protect them from the harsh truths of the world. They fight and fight, convinced that their strength and their loyalty to some higher cause will save them, but all I see is a cycle of failure repeating itself. They believe in their righteousness, their purity, their connections to forces they cannot fully understand. But it is all an illusion.The Gods or the world does not care about pride. It does not care about dignity. It does not recognize the strength they claim to possess. No, the world and the Gods respect only power—the kind that bends others to your will, the kind that ensures survival by any means. They are too wrapped up in their fantasies to see the reality. Survival is not about pride. It is about doing what they must, without in

    DustinI stare back as Aleister glares at me. “ the distance was— ”“ Bigger than you expected? ” I shrug and turn to walk towards my horse.“ You already knew, didn’t you? ” He masks his anger behind a cold smirk.“ What? That you wouldn’t be able to teleport all of us? ” I look towards Striker, then Tyson. They are glaring at me just like Aleister. “ You knew. ” Aleister lets out a breath, his voice tinged with disbelief.“ This teleportation? It’s not the power of the South. It’s just some added perk from your submissive witch blood. Of course, I knew you could only teleport one or perhaps two of us before it stopped working for some time. ” I tell him honestly, not wanting to drag this out longer than needed. “ But I was hoping…you could send two back. Tyson would have been a good option. He knows Levian better than us. ”“ You knew he could only send one or two of us back, and you still chose her? ” Striker lifts his brows.“ You would have done the same if it was Lenora. She is

    ElitaI am back here again. The fire is consuming me, licking at my skin, searing through my lungs. And water seeps from the statue’s cold stone eyes, inching toward me as if trying to free me from the flames.Why do I always end up here? What does this even mean?Before I can make sense of anything, I jolt awake. My heart pounds against my ribcages as my wide eyes land on the plain, dirty ceiling. My breathing is uneven, and my body is still caught somewhere between the dream and reality.“ Did I scare you? ” Dustin’s soft voice sounds from beside me. I stiffen, and turn my head in his direction. He is standing beside the bed, his warm hand placed over my shoulder. His dark eyes hold something unreadable, but his face remains impassive.I blink, once, twice. Trying to gather my thoughts.“ I would have let you rest longer, but it’s urgent… ” Dustin says, straightening to his height. “ Get up and get ready. We need to leave. Now. ”Dread tightens a knot in my stomach. “ What happene

    ElitaIt will always remain this way. I will never register sex. I try to claw at his shoulder to ground my mind to this moment, to continue to look into his beautiful eyes, but everything is already blank before my gaze.Just when I think I am going to slip away from him, my body is flipped again. My heart misses a beat in my chest as everything clears in my view.I am above him, straddling his hips, with his length still inside me, filling me deeper now. My hands drop to his stomach, and my back arches when I register the burn in my core. He is stretching me so good.“ You are not…forgetting about this again. ” His deep, restrained voice echoes in my ears as he commands. Confused, I look down at our joined bodies, and then up at his clenched jaw, dark eyes, and hands that are clasped together, raised above his head. It takes me a moment to register what’s happening. But when I do, everything inside me turns warm and melts into a puddle.Dustin Landric, the man who can’t bear to l

    Elita“ I got a little taste of you, Ms. Folke… ” Dustin says, his voice low, husky. “ I need more now. ”My breath catches in my throat, the tension between us thick and suffocating.“ Still need more? ” I ask, my voice barely a whisper. “ Even after I acted like an ungrateful bitch and hurt you every time I opened my mouth? ”His hands slide down my sides with a precision that sends shivers down my spine. There is no hesitation in his touch, only certainty as if every move is part of a calculated plan. He grips my thighs firmly, lifting me with ease and wrapping my legs around his torso. His body feels like steel against mine—so hard, yet so warm. “ Those words meant nothing to me. I knew you were trying to push me away… ” He says, his tone devoid of softness. His eyes trail to my parted lips before snapping back to meet my gaze. “ You can try to push me away, but it won’t work. Because I always get what I want. And what I want right now is to have this… ”He leans down, so close

    Elita“You destroyed me, Dustin! Don't you understand?! ”Dustin’s jaw tightens. He watches as I storm to the door and step outside. The cold mountain air bites into my skin, but I do not care. I need space. I need air that does not smell like him. Just as I take a few steps forth and pick up my head, I see similar small huts surrounding me.Several warriors turn towards me and watch me standing there like a dummy. I take in a deep breath and start walking towards the right.Did Alpha King Striker have to trick me like this? What was he even hoping to achieve?I scoff, stomping forward to find a silent, lonely corner. I stop only when I reach the ditch again.It’s so visible even in the night. Why did I miss earlier then? I narrow my eyes on it, glaring at if I can blame it for everything going wrong. I don’t know how long I do it, but I know that my legs start feeling heavy.I crouch down and wrap my arms around my knees. I always knew what to do, but now, I feel like a fool.May

    ElitaThe quiet of the night almost stings my ears as I see myself back in that place—the first time I saw the Lycan King up close, a decade ago.His hand wraps around my wrist just as I try to turn and retreat. My heart races, a drumbeat of panic. I have already lured him into the trap. Death looms close, waiting to claim him in the form of a vampire king—the same monster who made me into this.It feels surreal. The memory had turned foggy after so many years among vampires and humans. I could no longer remember the sharpness of his features, the exact look in his eyes. But now, it is painfully clear.He is not glaring at me. There is no hatred in his gaze, not even blame.Maybe he already knew it was a trap. Dustin always knows everything.And still, he came.I pull, trying to wrench free, but it is no use. Levian stalks closer from behind. Yet Dustin does not shift his focus. His eyes never leave mine.“You will regret it.” His thumb brushes my pulse point, lingering just long enoug

    ElitaI lie awake, staring at the ceiling above my head, my mind too full to let sleep take me. Tonight, it feels so cold in here. I feel this itch under my skin to go find that Lycan King and snuggle into his arms but I hold still. He is warm when his limbs are entangled with mine, but I am still angry at him.That’s not all. There is an ache between my legs, a constant, needy ache that demands his touch. It’s driving me crazy. Suddenly, someone knocks at the door. My heart misses a beat.Dustin. It has to be him. He knocked on my door hours ago and I just pretended to be asleep.The thought of him sends a rush through me—anger, longing, something that twists low in my belly—but I force myself to stay put. I won’t answer. I won’t let him in.“ Elita. ” The voice from the other side of the door calls out, and it’s not him. It’s Striker. “ Come out. ”I sigh and move my legs over the side of the bed, bare feet touching the cold floor. When I open the door, he stands there in the dim
