Liam approached Lilian's chambers with a growing sense of annoyance and weariness. He longed to spend more time with Nicole to revel in their newfound connection. But it seemed that fate had other plans, constantly throwing distractions in his path. His wolf was on the edge, its agitation fueling h
Smirking, Liam shrugged, and they had already arrived at Lilian's door."Well played, my friend. Well played."Liam would have laughed if they hadn't been at Lilian's door. The commotion within grew louder, and Liam's patience wore thin. He gritted his teeth, willing himself to maintain composure in
Liam's jaw tightened, a mix of emotions swirling within him. "Lilian, I understand your longing, but we can't afford to lose focus," Liam responded firmly, his words tinged with a touch of regret. "The witches are still a threat, and we must remain united and vigilant. I can't risk your safety or t
As Liam entered his chambers, his heart swelled with happiness at the thought of being reunited with his mate, Nicole. The memories of their time together brought a smile to his face, filling him with warmth. His wolf was also elated.But as he entered the room, his elation quickly turned to confusi
Liam's wolf howled within him, yearning for the connection they shared. He had never felt such a profound desire to protect and cherish someone, plus the thought of being without Nicole was unbearable."Nicole, I understand. I won't force you to be with me, but know that I'll always be here, waiting
Liam's fists clenched at his sides, his wolf straining against his control. "You have no right to her, Garrett. She's my mate."The words hung in the air, a bombshell that shattered the tense atmosphere. Gasps echoed through the room, the shock reverberating off the walls. Even James, who had been o
Nicole paced back and forth in Liam's room, her mind consumed by confusion and self-doubt. She couldn't understand why she was pushing him away, why she was denying herself the love and happiness she had found in his arms. Every fibre of her being longed to comfort him, to erase the pain she saw in
Ignoring him, Nicole took another step forward. "Liam," she whispered again. Her chest was constricted from chaos, fear, and every other thing rambling in her head. For some reason, she wasn't afraid of either Liam or his wolf in a feral state. What she was mostly afraid of was the jealousy she sce
“Stop bluffing.” Marisol's smile dropped the moment the dagger slipped into her hands. “We both know that I'm not bluffing, witch.”Before Guinevere could react, Marisol drove the dagger into her heart in one forceful swing. Her eyes blew wide, and she fell right on top of Marisol, pained choking s
The air crackled with magic, and their surroundings became a battlefield of elemental forces. Marisol conjured torrents of fire, sending waves of intense heat crashing towards Guinevere. But Guinevere laughed, her own magic swirling around her like a shield as she countered with blasts of icy spears
Marisol ended up in a dimly lit chamber, the air thick with ancient magic and foreboding. Her grip on the dagger tightened, its energy pulsing against her skin as if urging her forward.She didn't know where she was or how she got there. All she did was allow her senses to lead her, and it seemed th
By the time the truth had fully sunk in, Cedric was a whirlwind of fury and grief. He turned on Leticia, his eyes blazing with a primal rage as he grabbed her roughly, his grip like a vice around her throat."Cedric, stop!" Caleb's voice rang out, his tone commanding. "This won't bring Marisol back.
Caleb's brow pinched in concern as he took in Cedric's disheveled state. “How? Was Guinevere here?” He looked around frantically and found no sign of infiltration. He turned back to his brother. “Don't worry, we'll find her," he assured, his voice a steady anchor within the chaos that was Cedric's m
In the hushed stillness of the night, when the world lay shrouded in darkness and all was quiet, Marisol rolled out of bed. It was time.She knew what she had to do. A sense of duty pulsed through her veins, driving her from the warmth of her bed.Silently slipping out from beneath the covers, she m
Marisol's heart swelled with conflicting emotions at Cedric's declaration. His eyes, conveying his utmost sincerity, almost had her bursting into tears where she sat. Instead, she forced a smile, her applause joining in with the others, though inside, she felt a pang of sadness.“That's wonderful ne
A smile spread across Marisol's face as she turned around in his arms to face him. “Nervous? Why on earth…”“Okay, I was nervous on your behalf.” He admitted with a sheepish grin, and Marisol regarded him with a fond smile. “But Leticia was right. When we retreated, they prowled around aimlessly for
Marisol stepped out of Leticia's chambers with a million thoughts bubbling in her head. She didn't know if she wanted to scream or cry. Maybe she wanted to do both. It was so unfair. Her parents had told her she was destined for greatness. Was this fate's idea of greatness? To be made to sacrifice
