Marisol's brow furrowed in frustration, her lips pressing into a thin line. "You know we can hear each other's thoughts and feelings now, right?" she settled, watching as Cedric plowed his hands through his hair. "You don't have to lie to me, Cedric," she continued, her tone soft and lulling. "I ca
He paused, staring at the shut door in disbelief as his heart pounded wildly in his chest. Then, he turned around, his jaw slacked.For a moment, they simply stood there, staring at each other in stunned silence. He looked from her to the door, then back at the door before he approached it again, te
Cedric struggled to find the right words to describe the sensation coursing through him. "It's my wolf," he tried, his voice filled with wonder. "It's… quiet. In my head, it's like…. like it's taking a nap or something. For the first time in forever, it feels calm, like… like normal."Marisol's eyes
As soon as Marisol crossed the border, her bond with the Dark Moon pack crackled back to life, their connection restored. All the messages she'd been trying to pass across from the moment she realized that she was in trouble were now relayed back to them at the speed of light. At the same time, sh
'Good.’ Cedric grumbled back. The witch was way too cocky for his liking. Just then, Caleb and his mate stepped out from hiding, hand in hand.“Finally,” the Witch exclaimed. “What were you so afraid of? This is a proper family reunion.”“Enough of your bullshitting!” Cedric finally snapped, startl
As Cedric woke up entangled in the sheets with his mate pressed tightly against his side, he couldn't help but think that this was life. For the first time in a long time, Cedric felt fulfilled. Everything was perfect. With Marisol by his side, he felt like he could do anything. He was happy, conten
The moment Marisol sank down and clenched around him, Cedric let out a low howl. “Fucking hell, Princess.” He tried to concentrate and tease her breasts and his mark, but Cedric couldn't help but feel at a loss when she began to move at a torturous pace.His fingers dug into her waist as he slowed
Finally, one of the other wolves in their company shifts into human form, his voice filled with urgency. "Where's Caleb Coveton and where is Marisol?" he demanded, his tone brooking no argument.At the mention of his name, Caleb's wolf whimpers in fear and tries to retreat. Before Cedric could react
“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
