Lost Queen 55: Grand Exit
ADRIANAI feel something warm trailing down my arms just as the lights go off. There are shocked gasps for the most part but people Dom’t really make a move to get out of the way or anything like that.I’m not focused on what is on my arm, rather I’m trying to find my way out of here. Maybe the lights going off was a good thing. I can escape Xander. Because from the way he was acting, he hadn't planned on just walking me to the door. Nothing about him says gentleman.But I have one slight problem. I can’t see as well in the dark as the rest of the people here. It doesn’t help that most of them are lycans. And lycans are known to have better everything then wolves.I blinked, wondering why my eyes felt dry. I literally can’t make out anything.This can’t be happening right now.I try to keep my expression calm. In case anyone was watching me, I didn’t want to look frightened. In a room full of predators, you better not make yourself an easy prey.I’m still trying to force my eyes to se
Lost Queen 56: Locked In
XANDER I didn’t mention the blood on Adriana’s hand because it seemed she didn’t notice, or maybe her mind was on something else. Probably the latter. The second the metallic smell had hit my nostrils, I almost lost it. I knew it was hers. Her natural scent was very strong even with the stench of blood. Maybe it has something to do with her suddenly falling asleep. God, I hope Dreaya hasn’t done some crazy witch voodoo on her. I wouldn’t waste a second before killing that woman if she dared hurt her. Forget that she is her mother and she’ll probably never forgive me. I would rather spend the rest of my life making up for that, than let her go back to a place if she isn’t being treated well. I took her to my current room where I laid her on the bed. I wasn’t surprised when I saw the wound had healed on its own. That is to be expected. I couldn’t tell where she had gotten cut. Due to movement, it has messed up pretty much her whole hand. I sighed then took off my jacket. I rolled
Lost Queen 57: Bed Partner
ADRIANAI knew I wasn’t in my bed when I woke up. Everything seemed off the second I opened my eyes. It didn’t even have anything to do with the dark…everything in the room.Just something didn’t feel like I was used to. And instead of panicking and looking for how to get the hell out of there. I was looking for how to cozy up to the big warm teddy bear next to me.I think my not getting out of bed had more to do with the teddy keeping me down.Not, not teddy. The second that sandalwood scent trickles into my nose, I knew it wasn’t a teddy. Why the hell did I even think that? I didn’t even have that many pillows on my bed, least of all a teddy.Xander. I felt the urge to pluck his eyes out in case you were wondering. He was happily sleeping. With his big ass tree trunk of a hand pinning me down.I wanted to get out of the bed, but I was also scared to wake him up. Or at least I told myself that.It had nothing to do with how good he felt. And did I need to mention his scent? Amazing.
Lost Queen 58: See Me
XANDERAdriana shudders against me which you can already guess didn’t help. I am convinced she is doing this on purpose but she doesn’t exactly look ready to take it anywhere.I shouldn’t forget. She can be a fucking tease when she wants to. And right now, must be one of those times.“Stop.” I growl as I nibble on her earlobes.My little wolf, who I’m now seeing really does have a devil steak in her, moans. It was soft, slightly high pitched. So perfect, it had pre-cum leaking from my tip.An animalistic sound tore from my chest and I switched our position. Now she was the one lying on her back and I’m above her, I hold my height on my forearms which are on both sides of her head. She looks up at me, her bright eyes dark and daring. And she slowly licks her lips.Fuck me.The devil, I tell you.“Are you ready to finish what you started,” I lean down, very close to pressing my lips against hers.It takes every ounce of self control that I have to not actually do that. Capture her lips
Lost Queen 59: How to Wake an Unconscious Lycan?
ADRIANAXander is trying to make my heart stop. And that made me think he doesn’t want to kill me. Not by himself at least. He’ll let me do that all by myself while he watches from the sidelines.Well, he isn’t watching right now.That annoying voice in my head speaks. Referring to his unconscious form lying beside me. It took a lot of effort to get him off of me.The man is a heavy load of muscles. And as strong as I thought I was, I couldn’t just push him off me.One second, he was speaking, the next, his eyes closed and he fell on me. His entire body weight pushed me into the bed. He stole my breath, in a totally different way.I called his name a few times, thinking it was one of his tricks. But after my breath really started coming out in short gasps and I realized I was losing air. I did what every smart person would do and pushed him, with all my strength. I was lucky he didn’t crush my arms, if he had. Then they’ll probably pick my dead body up whenever he gets up.It took me
Lost Queen 60: Lost Clothes
ADRIANAI didn’t bother with lotion when I walked out. I went straight into trying to find out where my dress was. It wasn’t on the floor along with the rest of Xander’s clothing. Literally nothing of mine was there.The other option I had was to go out and check. Which, like I said, wasn’t really an option. I’m sure they know Xander hasn’t come out all morning. What am I supposed to say when they ask me where he is? Something tells me he isn’t the type to sleep in, either. So I couldn’t say he was still sleeping.And if I manage to convince them he is sleeping. How will I get out of here when I don't even have clothes?So far, the only available option is the shirt I took off. I don’
Lost Queen 61: Trip To The Past
XANDERI watched in horror as Adriana’s eyes closed. I couldn’t tell what overcame me. But something about her being her usual self didn’t sit right with me.While I was on top of the world seeing her look at me like I was the best thing that happened to her. It didn’t feel right.And then I forced myself to wake up from the dream. If it was even a dream.I thought, if somehow I was seeing the old her and conversing with the old her. She shouldn’t have been that worried about me. I know she had feelings for me, but she wasn’t in love with me. Even if it hurts to admit.Dreaya got me, I’ll admit.For a moment I got lost in the euphoria but I was lucky enough to realize that fast. What was hard was breaking over whatever shackles she put on my mind. Imagine my surprise when I found myself holding my mate by the throat.She looked scared. Terrified. And I wanted to cut my hands off from my body and throw them away. There is no way to punish myself for what I did. Even if I wasn’t in my r
Lost Queen 62: Like Father, Like Son
XANDERPaying no heed to the dust and grime on the floor. I stepped barefooted into the inner chamber, staring at the container that held my father’s head.Well, the sperm donor. He was never a father to me.I had the best scientists in the world find a way to reserve it. Because I needed to be seeing his lifeless eyes. To see him be turned to nothing but a body part in a box. And to know I did that.Right now, it doesn’t make me feel better.I want him alive again so I can kill him one more time. I want to watch the realization hit him once again. To let fear overtake him until he starts being scared of his own shadow.Dreaya had helped with that. Her best suit was manipulation and she used that.As good as she was with spells and magic, nothing could beat the damage she does with her mind. And she takes pride in that.You could never beat her when it comes to mind games. And my father had no chance. He ended up here because he betrayed her.I still don’t know what he did to her. But
