"No. Don't you dare," I threatened."That's not a child, and you know it," the sorceress said to me, her eyes cold."It is mine," I growled."I think I'm done here. Summon me if she changes her mind; this was my mistake, and I have to fix it." With a nod to Thane, she turned and walked away."Riley..."Axel began."No." I cut him off, "Don't tell me how this is the better option; I want to keep it and I will." Thane and Axel exchanged glances again, there seemed to be a silent conversation going on between them. "I need to talk to Nick... alone.""If you do anything to hurt her, I will kill you." Thane promised before leaving; Axel followed next."You didn't tell me," I said to Nick. "You didn't tell me anything about the bloodlust I would have to live with; why?""I'm sorry... I just...""Say it, Nick, you don't need to lie to me."He gazed down at me, his eyes filled with guilt. "There are a lot of things you don't know." He paused again."Go on," I prompted."There's something abou

"I did my part of the deal, Riley; you aren't keeping to yours." Nick said, furious now."You never told me the whole truth; you hid it all from me. I would have never gone along with this if I knew the other side you kept hidden and you know that.""Don't lie to me, Riley. I knew it; from the moment I came here to visit you in the dungeons, I could see it in your eyes. You were never going to keep to your part of the deal, you were never going to go along with the marriage, so don't give me this bullshit," he said, and to that I had no reply.He was right."I'm sorry things had to end this way."I said to him."No. No, you are not. I'll be on my way now; maybe I might as well inform your mother that the wedding is off. I wonder what she would think about it.""Don't bring my mother into this.""Oh, she's so going to be involved, and don't you think for a moment that this is goodbye," he pointed at my stomach. "Either you take that thing out of you or you die. But well, you are good at

Thane had work to attend to, but he had promised to send Axel in to keep me company. So when the door was pulled open, I had expected to see Axel, but it had been Jake. His face paled the moment he saw me. "Why are you here?" I asked, partly rising from the bed I laid on. “I'd been wanting to meet you for a while now, but since I last saw you on the training field you seem to have vanished…” his gaze never left me. Taking a step closer, his voice lowered, "What happened to you?" He asked and that's when I perceived the whiff of blood. "I'm fine." I said to him, the blood smelled so nice, I wanted a taste. "You are injured; you should leave." "Not until you tell me what happened, are you alright?" "Jake, go now," I growled, but he only drew closer. "No, you need help. Does the Alpha know...?" I cut him off. "Yes, he does, Jake. I'm warning you, leave." He paused, staring at my eyes. "Your face..." He didn't finish his sentence. I couldn't explain how I had suddenl

THANE.I watched Riley; gods, she was in pain, she blamed herself for Jake's death. "Just… Get it out of me," she repeated."Riley, you didn't do this; it's the fault of the thing inside of you.""Is what I am. A ‘turned one’, I did this, Thane, and... what if it doesn't stop?""What do you mean?""What if the lust never seizes, even with the demon out?""He did say you would be able to control it.""What if he lied? Or what if I am different? I just can't… I can't hurt any other person. I have to be controlled, Thane.""You will be alright, Riley.""No. No, I won't be alright. Thane I can't…""You can't what?""I can't... stay in this pack; I can't hurt these innocent people. Nelly, Jake's sister, had died because of me, and now... I killed him too. Oh gods, what have I done? What would I tell his parents?" she muttered on, visibly shaking."You don't have to worry about anything; I have this under control.""No. You can't fix everything. I thought I could have a life with you; that

"I want to kiss you, Thane," she says."No, you don't.""But I do; you are just so... Charming and handsome; I should hate you for leaving me, and yet all I want to do is... kiss you."She was still in a haze. It would take a few minutes to pass."Oh, you do?" I asked with a smile."Yes, and I... want to do more things," she whispered, matching my tone."Things like what?""I like it when you touch me... and I also like Axel's touch too... I want to do things with the both of you."I couldn't help but chuckle at that."That's enough mind manipulation for one day." I said, rising to my feet.I could hear the footsteps approaching. Axel. I should prepare myself for a long, long lecture from him, one I did deserve.Just then Axel walked in.His eyes went to the body on the floor."Jake," he called as if we all didn't know that, and then his eyes met Riley. It didn't take him a while to figure it all out."She...did this?" He whispered as if in an attempt to keep Riley out of the conversa

RILEYI woke up to this strange sadness. I couldn't even remember why exactly I was sad, but then it might be the news about Jake's death. That must be it. Thinking about Jake made things worse; he was a good person; not everyone could forgive their own sibling's murderer, but he did, and now he is dead.I just didn't get it.Why did he have to leave the pack boundaries at that time of the night?I had finally made a decision, one I should have made a long time ago. Whatever was growing in me, I can't bring it into this world. Thane was right; it was no child, and many would die if the creature lives; that's if it actually survives in the end, by the rate things were going, I knew I wouldn't last long and usually the child dies when the mother does; I wonder if things would be different with a demon. Deep down, I was scared—what if it doesn't work?—what if I... die in the process?"The sorceress would be here anytime soon." Thane said to me, and I nodded."Thane, I want to ask you a

The thought of living for centuries was as dreadful as it was… appealing. What would it feel like to live as long as the elders?But the dreadful part was the loneliness that comes with eternal life; when you become too afraid to make bonds, because in the end they would all die. My gaze met Thane. He doesn't exactly age fast, and so I still have a lot of time to worry about that.I nodded to the sorceress. "Fine, I would go alone with your code or whatever it is.""Good. Now let's get to work.” She placed her bag on the table, taking out an empty glass container and then a smaller bottle, the bottle was the size of my pinky; it contained a thick black substance, and next, she brought forth a knife so sharp I was sure if I moved closer I could see my own reflection on it, and finally she brought out an ancient book."Is that... the book of spells?" Axel asked."Yes, it is," she answered with a small smile that states she didn't expect Axel to know anything about that.She poured some

His blood was different. I noticed it the first time I drank from him. Maybe it had to do with the fact that he was a Lycan; that explains the richness to the taste of his blood. I pulled away. "Well, that didn't go very bad." Axel commented with a smile. I wiped my lips. "Nick was right, I do have some control over the bloodlust." “At least that counts as the single truth he told.” Thane agreed, flexing his wrist, I watched as the puncture marks disappeared. “I need to go; you've got her?" Axel questioned, referring to me, and Thane gave a nod. Axel left, leaving the both of us alone. "Thank you." "For what?" Thane asked. "I had behaved so foolishly; I wonder why in the world I thought to protect that 'thing'." "It is not exactly your fault; you seem to really want a child," he says, as if he had just noticed that. "Thane, I think we should... forget everything that happened in the past and move on. I just don't want to waste the time I have with you, because I k

My mind flashed back to the woman I had met in the woods all those years ago. If I could turn back time, I would have asked her exactly how her mate had broken her heart. Had he cheated on her? Had he beaten her? Or had he said the very same words Alexander Blackwoods had just said to me?“How dare you.” I growled at him. He was my first, the only man I had ever been with. “How dare you ask such a question, Alexander?” My voice sounded so cold; I couldn’t even recognize it.Alexander sat beside me as I shook with fury. “The healer had warned me when I began taking the doses of wolf’s bane. I didn’t listen; I was so obsessed with the idea of growing some kind of immunity to it. She was right in the end; it rendered me infertile—at least until I stopped my daily doses. And even then, we aren’t sure things will return to normal. With the amount of wolfsbane in my system, I am incapable of impregnating you, Kaida.”“I’ve only been with you.”“No. Just stop the act.

Nothing in the world could have prepared me for that news. Sarah's eyes held nothing but sympathy. I should have taken the pills. Now it was too late. I wasn’t ready; I wasn’t ready to train a child. Damn, I couldn’t even control myself; how am I expected to raise a child?I began panicking. “I can’t—it can’t be; there’s too much on the line; I can’t be pregnant.” The words came out in a panicked whisper."We haven't run any tests yet; I'm only speaking based on the visible signs; we are not yet sure of anything till we run a test.” She explained to me, and I nodded, but I could barely understand any word she was saying..I paced around my room, waiting for Sarah to bring the results. She had asked me to pee in a cup for the test; I didn’t even mind how awkward it was—I didn’t care. Please let her be wrong. If she is wrong, I would ask her for those pills and stay regular with them. Anytime I closed my eyes, I imagined myself getting big and round. I couldn’t fight with a child in

I lay on the bed, wide awake.I couldn’t sleep, even with Alexander so close to me. This time, his presence offered no comfort; we were on the same bed but might as well have been worlds apart, the gap between us growing wider and wider with each passing day.After he had fucked me against the table, I managed to make my way back to the bed and attempt to sleep. Clearly, it wasn’t working. I hadn’t said another word to him, and he seemed to prefer the silence.My memories pulled me back to an incident from a few years ago, back in the Dawn Pack. I remembered finding a woman in the woods—she was in so much pain. I tried to calm her down, but without being able to speak, she couldn't tell me what was wrong. I finally convinced her to shift back, and the moment she did, she broke down in tears. I had thought something terrible had happened to her, but I was… disappointed to realize that all that agony was simply because she was having issues with her mate.I had tried consoling her the b

KAIDA’S POVA whole week, and he barely spoke to me.I knew he was mad at me for leaving without informing him—he had every right to be—but I never thought it would drag on this long. I had believed that after my explanation, things would return to how they used to be. I was very wrongNothing was the same.I had just been informed that Aric had returned. I had been worried about him, but maybe it was smart of him to stay away for a few more days. Now he was back, he too kept his distance, and I didn’t think I was ready to see him either—maybe because a part of me blamed him. He had advised me to keep it all a secret from Alexander, and now I wasn’t sure if I had done the right thing.The Empress still lived, but everything I had built with Aric crumbled to pieces right before my very eyes.I spent my day exercising; that was the only way to let out stress, but this time it wasn’t enough. I missed him—I missed Alexander; I miss his touch… it was all driving me crazy.Most times, I had

The sun had begun to set as I approached Aric in the field; thankfully, the place was completely empty of people.“I knew I would be seeing you soon.” Aric said with a smile.“I had been waiting for you; I almost thought you chickened out.”“I had sex with her,” he said abruptly, and despite the fact that I already knew that, hearing it from the man who she had fucked only made it all worse."I should have known you'd take your chance the moment you were left alone with her.""For all you know, she might have been the one begging for it. Maybe you weren’t enough to satisfy her, or perhaps… she was craving something different."I’ve always excelled at keeping my emotions in check, but this time it took everything in me to keep calm. I was one step away from cracking his skull.“You know you can’t kill me.” He says, “She wouldn’t like that one bit, and you don’t want to make her mad.”“On the contrary, I do.”He hadn’t expected it; I grabbed his arm, snapping it. He let out a growl. “Yo

ALEXANDER’S POVI couldn’t bear to look at her. I came home late and left early—we hadn’t had a real conversation since we returned a week ago. She had tried starting one a few times, but after noticing my lack of interest, she stopped trying.I should get over this and move on. After all, I had been with other women too—but that was before Kaida and I became more than just unwilling companions. What hurt me the most wasn’t the act itself, but the fact that she hadn’t said a word about it. I had waited for her to finally gather the courage to speak up, only to realize she was going to pretend nothing had happened—like she hadn’t broken my trust. And that was what annoyed me the most.I would have forgiven her, damn, I still would— if she spoke about it.I drowned myself with work, and of course it paid off; the pack earnings had increased significantly this past week. When I wasn’t working, I was drinking myself to death. Usually, women, liquor, and violence were my only ways to let o

I felt so stupid—foolish enough to believe I was the queen in this game, with everyone else as mere pawns in my scheme. Little did I know there was a master plan, one far greater than my petty game. And in His plan, I was nothing more than a pawn.“You released those flesh eaters that attacked me; I could have died!” “That wasn’t exactly part of my plan, but again, I didn’t think you would go running off.”“You want me to believe that everything you said to me was a lie, but I don’t believe that. I know there was some truth to it all; you took the blame for me, risking your life. More than once you’ve risked your very position to make sure I am fed; you saved me from them. The kiss we shared in the lake, the memories we’ve made—they aren’t fake; they are all real.”I sounded so sure of myself, but in reality, I wasn’t. Perhaps it was all real to me, but never real to him.Trian—no, Daemon—gripped my chin, his eyes flashing from their usual blue to pure black before returning to their

A smirk curved on his lips; his eyes, once full of emotion, were empty, cold, and… distant.Suddenly he looked like a stranger.In a blink, he was no longer in front of me. I felt his presence right behind me; my heart pounded as I slowly turned around, and there he stood only a few inches away from me.“You wanted to know how I got out of The Pit? Well now you do.”“What are you?” I asked, backing away once again.“Fortune tellers might be liars, but she didn’t lie. I do have darkness living and breeding inside of me. Your empresses, they were all fools; they couldn’t see that the very thing they fought against was living with them, under their very noses.”“You are scaring me, Trian.”“No, not Trian. Daemon.”That name was also familiar; it took only a few seconds for my brain to place it. Julia had told me about the demon that had been born into the world by the Luna Queen. The demon that was supposed to be dead, he went by the very same name Daemon.“No!” I gasped.“Now you're sca

I woke up to Trian by my side.After the bath last night, he brought me back to bed; I didn’t miss the fact that he had replaced the sheets with fresh ones. Despite the throbbing pain between my legs, I couldn’t help but feel satisfied.It was better than I had ever expected, and I was glad Trian had been my first.Now I lay there, staring at him like some creep while he slept, noticing how tense he seemed—even in sleep. Maybe that was something all soldiers had in common. The thought of tracing my fingers down his perfectly sculpted face was enticing, but I couldn’t bring myself to do it, afraid I might wake him—and then things would get very… awkward.I managed to rise to my feet, certain I’d be feeling him down there for days. I limped out of the room, planning to take a small tour of the house, and made my way to the kitchen. That was when I realized something I had completely overlooked—I didn’t know how to cook. For most of my life, the maids brought me food, and I ate whatever
