XANDERMy nostrils flared in anger and jealousy as my wolf comes to life.He didn’t like the sound of what Adriana just said. A part of me knew it was just something she made up to try and get on my nerves. And fuck if it didn’t work.The dark and twisted part of me suggested I hold her against the wall and make sure she forgets the touch of any other man from her body. He suggests so many depraved ways to physically carve out their memories from her body.I have to shut my eyes and regulate my breathing to fight it.I’ve always know that the dark part of me was stronger than the light. The good side.My father made sure he eliminated every ounce of goodness I had in me. He did the most sickening thing to me and made it seem like it was normal.“What did you just say?” I slowly pronounce each word I utter.Adriana looks hesitant for a moment. But she fights that side of her that loves to submit and squares her shoulders.I’ll have to admit it made me harder. And the need to claim and
ADRIANAThere is no way I’m making this mistake again.Is it really a mistake if I keep doing it. Instead of learning from the first one.It would be a really great time for me to think with my head and not the pulsing between my thighs. But God, what Xander was doing to me with his mouth felt so good.Who knew I had such sensitive breasts.Well, maybe because no one has explored my body but him. No one has touched me in an intimate way or seen me naked the way he has.The honest any other man has gotten was that kiss with Kian. And we all know how that ended.I only said I’ve been with other guys to get on his nerve. I didn’t anticipate his reaction.I may have secretly hoped he would be disgusted and decide to never touch me again. Even if I knew that was unlikely. But I didn’t think he would be driven by lust so much that he doesn’t seem to care. And to me, it is just like it made him want me more.I hated it.It feels so good.There were two parts of me. Having two opposite reacti
**XANDER**I have been feeling anxious in the past few days. You know that feeling you get when something is about to go wrong? Like a complete sense of doom. The calm before the storm. Whatever you may call it.I've been feeling all of that.You may say I have gotten paranoid. I was suspicious of everything and everyone. Waiting for soemthing to just go wrong but nothing has happened yet. Adriana seems calmer. She even smiled at me this morning. I had to look over my shoulder to be sure no one was there. And sure enough, it was me she was smiling at.I had to ask her if she was feeling under the weather. Or if she hit her head perhaps. She’d only rolled her eyes and said that’s why she didn’t like being nice to me.I’m sorry if I was shocked by her. She has never acted that way before. Not even before the whole Dreaya thing happened.“Are you actually going to work or will you keep daydreaming about your little mate?” Donovan of course has to always disturb my peace. “Never thought
**ADRIANA**I blinked my eyes open. My senses groggily returning as I started registering the world around me.I squirmed on the bed, desperately trying to get the material of my clothes off my body, I wasn’t wearing silk, which I feel like is sliding on my skin right now. It felt so hot for some reason.My hands flailed lazily, trying to get the covers off me since they were generating so much heat.“Ouch,” I cursed, curling my fingers into a fist at the slight burn I felt. What was that?I blinked again, so I could see better because I wasn’t really seeing much of anything.Blue flames?I didn’t know when my body kicked back and I sat up, trying to get away from the fire that seemed too close. Sweat dripped down the sides of my face and my forehead. Like I was locked in a sauna with the highest temperature. It felt as though my skin was about to start falling off of my body.But fire?I jumped off the completely. I wasn’t seeing the fire anymore, not that it meant I should get com
**XANDER**Some part of me hoped Daciana had made a mistake. Even as I sprinted up to my room, I still hoped it was just a mistake and what she said wasn’t actually true. Or that maybe I mishear some part of her words. But as I got closer to my room, the smell of burning skin became too hard to ignore. My heart pounded in my chest. A ringing from nowhere filled my ears, making it hard for me to do anything. To even hear the commotion going on inside.Like I needed any more proof of what was going on.Donovan was right behind me as we both entered the room. There were multiple guards trooping between my bathroom and back to my bedroom that was now wet from all the water they must have poured on Adriana. She was still on the floor. Unmoving and the fire didn’t look like it was going to stop anytime soon. None of the men paid any attention to me as they kept going on with what they were doing. I made a mental note to give them gifts for realizing how important she is. I’m frozen in
**ADRIANA** Not again!!That was the first thing that came to my mind when I felt the sparks and a sudden coolness on my forehead. I knew when cancer walked don’t the room. But I was too immersed in the fire that was eating at me to focus on him. If it didn’t include me probably being burnt to death. I would have said I wish this would happen again so I won’t have to deal with all the things he makes me feel when he is close. Except, even with everything that’s going on. The moment he touched me, I forgot all of what was going on and my full attention went back to him. My body came alive from a single feel of his skin on mine. And damn it. I thought as I moved back so I could look at him. Only to find out the fire was now covering both of us. The man in black has been burned the money he came close to his skin hadn’t even touched mine. And Xander was touching my skin. And nothing seems to be happening to him. Just like me. He is only sweating profusely. “This is probably the wro
**XANDER**While I love every second of seeing Adriana’s body. It makes my cock so fucking hard when the need to be inside her. I wasn’t really in the mood for that right now. Trust me, I would throw caution to the wind if she gives me the free chance to do that. Because I just can’t say no to her. But that’s beside the point. And right now, we had bigger issues to attend to.“What was that?” I asked her, my eyes locked on her hands like they were the ones who’ll give me the answers I sought.Adriana looks as confused as me. Clearly not as bothered as she would be on a normal basis to be naked as the day she was born in front of me. She must be distracted. When being on fire and creating snow two seconds later would make everything else seems like a trivial issue. I didn’t know when the fire had even stopped. It’s just clicking now in my head. This would be the worst time for Donovan to be right. After I’d confidently said she had no ties to her witch mother. This starts happenin
ADRIANAXander smirks devilishly, seemingly too proud of himself and what he was doing.On the other hand, I wanted it burn the whole down and maybe my tongue along with it. The man already had a big ego. It was even bigger than the world. And still, I went ahead and said something that'll only make him more boastful.A cool shiver rolls down my spine, reminding me that I'm naked. For some reason, I'm not as bothered by it as I would like to be. But I use the little bit of sense that I have and walk away from the room towards the bathroom."You don't have to hide to fantasise about me baby, I'm all real here."I wanted to throw my head back and scream out in frustration. Xander is frustrating and he seems too happy with himself when he does things like this."Or maybe I'm trying to get away from you because you give me nightmares." "Oh darling," he laughs like it is impossible for that to even happen. "You may call it nightmares if it makes you feel any better. But we both know the l
