[Rosalynd]
I blink awake.
I’m in a dark room. The curtains are drawn to keep out the bright light of the full moon. I am surrounded by warmth, several arms and legs wrapped around me protectively in a warm pile. The last thing I remember is fighting my mother, who had turned into some kind of hideous beast, and falling to the ground after our spell went wrong. I am grateful that the room is dark because the pain in my head might be too great for sunlight. Taking a deep breath, I smell the earthy aroma of my mate, who I had been using as a pillow. I give his abs a little kiss, and he rolls into me subconsciously, snuggling into me, placing his face near his mark. I move to give him enough space and find a strong, fit, muscular body spooning me from behind. Unlike Axel who is li
[Rosalynd] “What haven’t you told me?” I hold my breath, waiting for the worst. “I’m not just a Fae lord,” he vaguely explains. “I’m a bit higher up on the food chain, so to speak.” “Like how high,” I laugh. “A Faerie duke? Prince?” I shake my head. “It doesn’t matter, does it? I already knew you are nobility. You've never hidden that.” “It kind of does matter,” he sighs. “Which is why I feel like I should apologize. I never fully explained why it was so important to find a bride. I need an heir. Not j
[Slone] The Master sent me for one last task before I headed down south to join him. We aren’t giving up on Rosie, not by a long shot, but Enchantra’s failure is making him reconsider his tactics. Either way, he needs me to “come home.” LA is the last place I want to be right now, I left LA intentionally to get away from all of my parent’s drama and the way that city made me feel desperate and alone. I’d rather stay here, among the redwoods--but the natural places are no longer home to one such as me. I took a different path, and now Mother Nature herself rejects my presence. So I have no choice but to return to the city of my birth, to the place where my Master waits to charm me and gift me with his strength. As long as I don’t have t
[Rosalynd]We landed on the floor of the main hall with a sickening slap of flesh against marble. Weak as he is, Evander was not quite able to control our descent. Our landing was a bit less graceful than expected, made worse by the fabric of the thin sheet wrapped around our legs.“Owwwww,” I groan as I try to move. “You could have given me a bit of warning. I might have grabbed a pillow!”“I’ll admit, I should have thought through this idea a bit more,” Evander moans as he picks himself up, his exquisite bare body naked to the room. “Rosie, what can you see?”“The inside of the sheet and your beautiful brown ass,” I groan as I rub my lower back with my hands.
[Axel] I give Evander and Rosie some time to rest and eat while I clean my house and get everything ready for the arrival of the entire coven. The house is lonely and quiet without Rafe and my father. I didn’t realize how hollow it would be without the two of them. My heart aches to see my son running down the stairs. Did Alexa feel like this for the year she was gone? Did she even care? I have a hard time believing she did, because if she did, why didn’t she ever call? Why didn’t she write a note? When I spoke with her on the phone, she told me it was because she was “paralyzed with shame and fear,” and “unsure of my reaction.” In other words, she didn&rsq
[Evander] I cannot believe she is here with me. I am the luckiest king in all Faerie. I do not need to see her to know she is stunning. I can feel her beauty in her soft hands and warm kisses. I can smell, taste and sense her perfection as I hold her, and she melts into me. When we arrived, I told Sir Raibeart to send out the call and gather the court. In less than 4 hours, the halls were filled, and the courtyard was ablaze with bonfires and music. It is not very often that a king presents his bride, so when he puts out a call to the entire Leprechaun Court to meet one, everyone answers the invitation. The last time a bride was brought home to Tara happened 400 years ago when my father claimed my
[Rosalynd] I'm still mad at Evander. No, I’m pissedWe are still dancing, and I have to admit he is an amazing dancer. He more than makes up for all the shortcomings that I have. He’s so elegant and graceful that even with my stumbling step we glide across the floor.“This doesn’t feel right,” I’m trying not to whine. He has given me all of this wonder in such a short amount of time, but I still miss my other boys as well. “If this is a reception, everyone I love should be here. Instead, the only person I know here is you. Everyone else is here for you or to see me as some kind of novelty.”The music pauses and I walk from the ballroom back out into the hallway. A short moment later,
[Slone] “But Master, how am I supposed to get into another dimension?” “On your knees,” Vincent demands. “You are not to question me, you are expected to do what I say.” Falling to my knees, I look down at my hands. “Yes, Master.” After a few moments of silence, he moves closer, his erect member on level with my face. My body is tense, both in fear and anticipation. “You are not a bad girl, Slone. You just don’t understand yet what needs to be done. I bet if you think ha
[Hyacinth] Despite what I might have hoped, Evander did not take advantage of me that first night. We were both far too exhausted. It's sad because he made a big show of taking me to his "bower" only for us to fall asleep mid-kiss. Wrapped tightly in each other's arms, the two of us slept for an entire 24 hours before waking up for a brief breakfast, only to fall asleep again as soon as we were done getting ready for our day. I have never been the type of person who had the benefit of rest. I always felt a need to go go go. But my body was done with giving me a choice since the choices I've been making have resulted in minimal sleep and extended opportunities for injury. Both Evander and I are in similar situations only in that we have both gone through so much of our bodies were s
