FEYRE When Anika said she was going to get a bath ready for me after breakfast, I didn’t think it was an actual literal bath, but it was. In one of those tubs you only find in old black and white movies. When she brought scented candles with her and amazing bath bombs, I immediately knew she was u
FEYRE “I’m definitely going to need another bath,” I huff out a breath, pushing myself up and resting by my elbows. Zade’s arms immediately wrap around my waist, pulling me back down so we’re plastered against each other. I tilt my head to the side, asking if he is really serious right now. He j
ALPHA ZADE I don’t have a valid reason for why I have been holding back from telling Feyre everything. A part of me might be cautious to open up to her when I wasn’t even sure what we are. She has made it quite clear she didn’t want anything that serious. She’d panicked and froze up on me last ni
FEYRE I’ve learned two things about Zade in the past two days. One, he is very stubborn and a lot more strong willed than I initially thought. Secondly, he can remain coherent while receiving head. I’m impressed by the latter. And the fact that I could even do that. It wasn’t easy. I wasn’t help
I could almost hear my scalp thanking her for the save. “You have beautiful hair,” she comments as she works her hand through the tangled strands. “Thank you,” I replied, my cheeks heating a bit. I didn’t do much for the hair but it was full and the texture was amazing. I know that. I love my hai
ALPHA ZADE “So, what you’re saying is, we have to stay here longer?” I massage my temple, even before Drugal replies to me. I’ve been feeling a little strange since I woke up, but it has gotten worse in the past few minutes. This news is not making me feel any better. “That is what it seems like
FEYRE I slowly regain consciousness, my head throbbing with a relentless ache. My vision is blurry and the world around me seems to sway. Like a ship caught in the middle of a turbulent storm. Images flash in the back of my eyes, and the swaying gets worse. I tried to blink it back, or move my h
The luna and Anika both look frightened. The luna places her hand over her bump protectively and Anika just looks scared. I don’t pay much attention to why they are scared of me when I’m the one who is obviously hurt. I’m more concerned about what I heard. “You spoke english.” It wasn’t a question
After everyone settled and the place regained a semblance of normalcy, we gathered in the living room to talk about pressing matters. Feyre said she wanted to know everything before tonight. That way, she wouldn’t feel like there is something she has to do in her life. She wants to start on a clean
ALPHA ZADE Everything feels different when the plane lands in the private hangar. Even the air felt different, free and fresh. Feyre slept the entire ride to the packhouse. I relished holding cradling her in my arms like a precious jewel. Which she is. Alpha Asher is already waiting for our arri
If someone told me this would be my life four or five months ago, I would take them to the doctor because something had to be wrong with them. We’re here now, and I don’t think I can ever be this happy in my life. “Perfect.” Zade repeats. He grips my chin and tips my head up until I’m looking at h
FEYRE The gentle rhythm of the heart monitor is the sound I wake up to. I look around the dim lit room, sighing in relief when I note that it is NOT a hospital room. I think everyone would understand if I never wanted to be in one ever again. Soft breathing from beside me makes me smile. I push
We both stare at the gun we hadn’t noticed in alpha Lucien’s hand and Zade sighs, then he stands up, letting my hand fall off his body. “He would choose to die a coward. It is all he has ever been.” He turns and walks out of the place. I followed him without a word. When we walk out, there are mor
FEYRE Losing consciousness has become a second skin to me. That is my first thought when I wake up and find myself looking up at the ceiling. I pick myself up from the ground, craning my neck from side to side until I release the cramp. The man is still lying face down on the mattress. He looks d
I knew it was a reach but he was already on a sloppy hill, and this is the one thing I have always wanted to know, if he was the one that killed her or not. It looked like suicide, people believed she had a reason to. But I knew she wouldn’t. She promised to stand by me and she wouldn’t have left w
“It can’t be cured because it is not a fucking illness. Your delusion though, I’m sure they have mental institutions like this for that.” “Don’t speak to me like that.” he growls, sounding enraged. It is the only real emotion I have seen him shown in a while. “I had this all mapped out for years.
ALPHA ZADE I blink my eyes open, hoping everything I’m thinking right now is nothing but my imagination, or at least, a bad dream. A terrible dream where my father has me and Feyre in a crazy lab bunker. It seems too real, the déjà vu hitting me among other things. This has felt like it has happe
