“Is it far?” I accepted his hand as he helped me out of the carriage. My legs were in no condition for a trek. “It’s not.” He walked beside me. I could see the inn’s sign a short distance from the dusty road. We entered and the place had at most three guests, all travellers judging by their cloaks
“What’s wrong with her?” I opened my eyes slowly to see Killian and an elderly man standing over me. “I am not quite sure but I have a guess.” An old man clad in cream robes said, adjusting his glasses as he peered down at me. “Ah.” He realized I’d woken up so he stepped back. “You are awake.” Kill
“You do not smell like a wolf.” My eyes snapped to his but I looked away in time. This was the second time he accused me of not being a wolf. His words had plagued me then but I decided they were spoken out of spite but now – I had not shifted but I was a wolf. I had to be a wolf.“What do you –“ I
‘Mate,’ the quiet voice of my wolf said in my head and as if hearing the voice, Noah’s eyes sharpened. “You are a beautiful wolf, Carrot.” He spoke in a cherry tone that spread goosebumps all over my skin. My wolf just saw him for the first time so even though I wanted to run as Noah approached, t
‘What does he want from us?’ My wolf asked with a shudder. “You must be curious about what I want from you.” His lips pulled up at the sides. “It’s simple because you are already on the right path. I didn’t think you had it in you to seduce such a high-ranked man but you must have some secret skill
‘He – He is not our mate,’ my wolf whispered and I heard the confusion in her tone. We’d just been bonded so it would take her a while to fully understand the chaos that was my life. Our mate who just left was a cruel man blackmailing us but this man, this man whose powerful aura made my wolf flinc
His gaze dropped from my face to my exposed shoulders. He pursed his lips as he took off his coat and draped the heavy cloth around me. “T – Thank you.” My head lowered but since it didn’t seat well with something inside me, I raised my head, looking up as I spoke.“You are a white wolf,” he said,
“I don’t know what you mean,” I answered slowly. “But I think it is best for us to –“ “Quiet.” My mouth snapped shut at the command. “Do not speak to me of this ever again.” His tone became dangerously cold. “Do you understand?” He tightened his grip on me. “Yes,” I answered but I did not underst
“Have I ever told you that you are like my fountain of good fortune?” He asked. “Feeling sentimental?” I asked and he nodded. “Very sentimental. I looked at Seth and Victoria today and I just – I could not believe it. As I have told you, most things in my life always go wrong. A family is somethin
“Seth, mama and dada have something for you,” Killian and I said to Seth one day. “Is it a baby?” He asked with wide eyes. “Yeah,” I smiled at the little boy and his eyes lit up. “Really? There’s a baby? Where my baby?” He looked around, jumped up and circled us as if we were hiding a baby behind
When we named him Seth, it was in remembrance of the only family Killian ever had before I came along but Cordelia seemed to think it was for her. She begged for my baby’s forgiveness to the point where I got uncomfortable and walked away with him. He may be named Seth but it did not mean he was a r
“Killian, the baby is here!” I screamed, startling my mate. “What?” His eyes widened and his fingers paused buttoning his shirt. “Where is she?” It was a funny question but I did not have time to laugh so I swallowed thickly and tried to waddle to the delivery room next door. “Hey, where are you go
“I am not sleepy,” I said and he pursed his lips. “Can I read a book at least? Or – Or we could choose baby names together.” I gave him a hopeful look. Since Killian found out I was pregnant, he had all but forbidden me from doing anything asides existing but when I talked about baby names, he lit
A few days ago, Hawke was found dead in his cell after weeks of him trying to eat himself as he turned rogue. In the early hours of this morning, Luna Grace ended her life by repeatedly stabbing her throat with a fork until she bled out. That was after she spent the past week screaming and crying ou
“I said the same thing!” She exclaimed with an awkward smile. While she stared at me without saying anything, I tried my best to make my brain function properly. “What do you mean – pregnant? I – What?” My mouth dropped open and the towel in my hand fell to the ground. “A baby?” At that moment, I h
Hawke would not be the first Alpha from Dark Moon that dreamt of taking the throne for himself but he was the most brazen of them in all of history. Dark Moon had a penchant to feel superior and my father let this one’s bravado grow. “Are you done gloating?” He asked and I laughed. “This would be
*KILLIAN* Despite the mountain of work awaiting me, I squeezed out time to see Hawke. For a long time, I pondered how to clip his wings, how to bring him down from his high horse and see him suffer. Having him where I wanted him made my steps light and my body weightless. His gaze burned into me w
