Faking the Mate Bond 76. Let me know
[Zephyr’s POV] “Where were you? Why did you leave so abruptly? I have been searching for you…” Diana sniffled. “Carol, princess. It keeps hopping away. Here there. All around the palace. From Unal lake to where-not. Even now, it hopped away. I was coming to you. I couldn’t even hand it to someone else. It starts screeching.” I let out a sigh. “But why are you crying? What’s wrong? Did something happen?” Diana parted from me. Her brows knit and the way she nibbled on her lower lips. There was something she wanted to tell me. Something that made her anxious. I knew what it was. She wanted to talk to me about her mate. I took out my handkerchief and wiped her tears and the smeared make-up gently. “You are making me anxious, princess. Did someone do something to you, or say something to you? Please tell me, I feel terrible for not being by your side when you needed me,” I said, caressing her cheek. “I looked for you so much and then… you disappeared… you saw me dance with Devon. Wa
Faking the Mate Bond 77. Game of obsession
[Zephyr’s POV] There are times when everything right seems wrong and only when everything goes wrong… it seems as if we have done something right. There had been a question in my mind. I had been restlessly searching for the answer to it ever since I lost Diana, but never got one. “Princess,” Dia. “How did you die in your previous life?” I asked. Diana flinched at my question as if she was re-experiencing those moments when the flames charred her skin. She shut her eyes and remained silent. “Was he the reason for your death? The man you call Mask?” I asked. “You said he attacked your mate’s pack, killed him. So…” I licked my lips. “... I think it’s only natural for you to hate him, right? I still don’t understand why and how you died.” I felt the dark thorny vines crawl all around my body and clench themselves, prodding every inch of my skin. The same feeling I had when I jumped into the flames that raged around Diana’s body. I froze in those flames like the shadow of the thor
Faking the Mate Bond 78. Shall we dance?(16+)
[Diana’s POV] When Zephyr said that he wanted to play the game of obsession where we hide and seek from each other, he confessed that he had things to hide. Sides of himself that he hadn’t shown to me, things about himself that he hadn’t told me. But it also meant he wanted me to seek those sides of him. He wasn’t trying to hide anymore; he wanted to be found but not so easily and I don’t know why that sent thunders of excitement running into my veins. Having the freedom to be discovered, that’s something most relationships fail to accomplish because people have the habit of hiding until they are pushed to their limits and through this game I was allowed to push Zephyr to those limits without fearing a breakup or the negative effect it might have on our relationship. I was excited and scared at the same time. Excited to discover Zephyr deeper than he presented himself and scared that I might discover something that was better left untouched. But I could think about all of those th
Faking the Mate Bond 79. An intimate dance(16+)
[Diana’s POV] We walked into the ballroom. I was trying to keep my gown from sticking to my body. It was insane how I was covered from the neck to toe, yet the paranoia of nakedness hit so hard. Even if I lifted the hem of my gown slightly, the breeziness would swirl within, making me more conscious of the mess between my legs. “Everything ok down there, Diana?” Zephyr whispered in a teasing tone. I snapped a glare at him. “I should have gotten you hard before coming here, and then I would have asked you the same question.” He chuckled, caressing Carol on my shoulder. He leaned in and I thought he would whisper something, but glided his finger up my nape, making me shudder as the goosebumps ran all over me. He pecked my ear and whispered, “you can make me hard just by breathing, Diana. Breathe just as hard as you did the last time you had me in your beautiful mouth.” I gulped hard, feeling my crotch heat with another string of tightness building up all around my body. “How abo
Faking the Mate Bond 80. Never enough(18+)
[Diana’s POV] “Princess… wait.” Zephyr caught up to from the dance floor to where Miya was. “Carol, come.” I stretched out my arms. Carol, who was sitting bored with a lot of attitude, got to its feet, flapped its flame-like tiny wings and half jumped and half flew into my arms. “I am sorry, Miya. I am exhausted. I will go ahead. See you tomorrow.” I said and without even listening to her reply, and dragged Zephyr out with me. We stopped after covering some distance into the sparsely lit corridor. “Princess, this isn’t the right way. The way to our room is that way,” he said, pointing to the other side. Panting, I looked at him. “Is it about the dance? Did I go overboard?” He asked. “I loved it,” I said impassively, with slight rage. Zephyr lifted his brows, “now… if you say you love it with such a furious expression… I don’t know what to do? Should I be happy you loved it or be scared to my death that you loved it?” He tried to joke around, but at that moment, nothing was w
Faking the Mate Bond 81. The dreamcatcher race
[Diana’s POV] “Look who is up?” Zephyr said, leaning against the doorframe of the bathroom with water dripping from his wet fingers dangling on his forehead, almost cloaking his eyes. He was wearing black pants and had nothing on top. I sat up on the bed, leaning against the headboard, staring at my sexy husband with a smile. I rubbed my back. “Sore?” Zephyr asked, walking round the bed. The canopy and curtains were already set aside properly, the bedsheets were changed, and I was in a dark green silk gown, my hair damp. He kissed my forehead. “You cleaned me up?” I asked. “I messed you up, so it’s my responsibility to clean you up as well. Don’t worry, I know vagina is self cleansing, so I didn’t use soap, just normal water. Don’t want to disturb my wife’s pH…” “What the heck!” I laughed. “And I love when you wear green, so there you are in a comfy green dressing gown. Anything else you want me to keep in mind when I clean you up? Because I am sure I will be cleaning up my
Faking the Mate Bond 82. Detecting mana
[Diana’s POV]“... so my dear friends Archer and Vilkus will check your manas. The ones with mana will have to wear these mana blockers,” Jihun said, showing us the cuff bracelets. Archer and Vilkus, Miya’s guardian, lit the incense in golden censers. “What are they doing?” I asked as Jihun went on explaining how the bracelets blocked manas.“Those white incense smoke are highly sensitive to mana, so even if there’s a little trace of mana inside someone, the smoke will change color. Based on the color of the smoke, they decide how strong mana an individual holds,” Janus said. “For the censer to work, one must hold its base in their palm. That’s how they work as mana detectors. A highly accurate one.”“Oh…” I nodded as the Uriko twins held the censers in their palms.Asashi’s censer smoke was still white, but the smoke from Aera’s censer turned blue.“Woah! Does this mean Aera has mana?” Reese asked.“Yes, and a powerful one. Average magic folk turn censer smoke blue,” Janus said.“H
Faking the Mate Bond 83. The abandoned city
[Diana’s POV]“I feel sorry for whoever’s nightmare this is,” Reese said. “I bet their mental health is all fucked up.”I had turned my back against the titans, feeling nauseous.“I wouldn’t want to be that body between those teeth,” Zephyr said, and I almost threw up.“I think as soon as we step on the snowy road they will attack us because we have been standing here for several minutes and they haven’t changed their positions even by an inch. All they do is stare with those creepy bulb-like eyes,” Reese said. “Is there no other way?” Zephyr asked with a casual sigh.“Well, do you see some other road? It’s only one road here, and it is through those blue giant men,” Reese said. “And who said you could talk to me, lowborn?”“Who was talking to you, highborn?”“Are you fucking with me?”“I got standards, highborn…”Reese snarled at Zephyr, grabbing his collar, “I will throw you right into their mouth if you don’t shut your filthy mouth this instant.”“Please stop it, you two!” I glare
