~Grace~Dancing with the Lycan King at his castle in front of his whole clan was not on my checklist for this year.Although I had danced with him once before during the charity banquet, this time, it felt different. More intimate and personal. And I felt… nervous?We both danced gracefully, flowing
~Grace~ How were the Rogues getting the upper hand? I thought the Black Lycan clan was fierce and powerful! None of the other packs dared to mess with them. Looking around the garden, I watched in horror as Lycans women retreated, chased by the Rogues. Alex tore through the battlefield, a blac
~Grace~ Alex’s hot breath breezed across my skin as his wet tongue licked my cut. I stared at him, dumbfounded. What was he doing? Tasting the blood? Cleaning it? There was water for that! “A-Alex-” I finally stuttered out, not sure what to say. His eyes were closed, and he only gave a gentl
~Grace~ I couldn’t sleep. Laying in bed, I stared out the window at the moon, the curtains drawn back I hadn’t heard Alex come back in yet, and I was sick with worry. Had something happened to him? What was so serious that he needed to be gone this long? I rolled over, groaning. Ther
~Grace~ Man, was he heavy! I struggled to pull the strange man into my room. Thankfully, everyone was asleep, but I sure wasn’t being quiet by any means. Although he was slender, he packed on some muscle, giving him some real weight. I did my best not to hurt him in the process, but I de
~Christopher~ She was definitely asleep now. I opened my eyes in the dark, the dim moonlight pouring in through the window onto Grace’s face. I gently rolled over and looked at her. She was so beautiful, her long brown hair framing her mature face. It was no wonder she was sought after by so man
~Grace~ “I heard about something that will make you as happy as a puppy,” Alex told me with a mysterious smile on his face. He had asked me to walk with him through the gardens, and after being so nervous about last night's incident, I couldn’t refuse. What if he found out? Or what if he knew al
“I have the papers proving his financial discrepancies right here,” I say, holding up a file. More murmurs went around the room, and I handed it to the gray-haired man, who looked them over, squinting through his glasses. I let the documents get passed around, letting the information sink in. This
~Grace~ Was I too late?I rushed through the forest, the branches of the trees whipping through my hair and leaving marks on my face.I could hear commotion in front of me, but I wasn’t near the fight. Not yet.Was Alex okay?Was the clan okay?I could hear a sea of yelling and bangs. A sour
~Grace~ We couldn’t win on our own.This was far greater than just Alex and I and even the entire Black Lycan clan, this was happening with all werewolf packs in the area.If we stood a chance at winning this fight, everyone had to team up together. No more Lycans and werewolves–it was all of u
~Grace~ couldn’t believe it. I was pregnant!Alex had taken me out on a trip out of the city to celebrate. I had on a flowy dress, my hair pulled up into a bun. The warm breeze felt nice against my skin.I held Alex’s hand in mine as we walked down the street of the small, cozy town we visited
~Grace~ It didn’t hurt.Not like Liam’s, not like Chrisopher’s.It didn’t hurt at all.Was he even doing it?Was this how it was supposed to feel?It was as if he connected a part of his very soul to me. I felt a buzzing in my chest I couldn’t describe. It felt like he was just kissing my neck,
Alex’s POVWas this just another one of his manipulation tactics?I stood up, crossing my arms. I really didn’t even know what to say. I never expected an apology from Christopher of all people, I didn’t think he was capable.“I’m sorry I caused so many problems for you,” Christopher continued, his
~Grace~ “I can explain,” I quickly spilled, my heart pounding. This was awful. I never wanted him to find out this way, now it looked even worse. Not that it wasn’t bad before, but now it made me look five times more guilty. Alex stayed frozen, his hand still in my hair. I couldn’t read
~Grace~ “Close your eyes,” Alex whispered into my ear, his breath warm against my cool skin. I shivered. He held me by my waist as we stood face-to-face in his bedroom. My eyes fluttered close. What did he have in mind? I felt his hands slip away from my body, and I heard him walk somew
The Elder Lycan was locked away behind such a well-secured door in case he shifted again, but it seemed like he accepted his captivity, at least for now. Would he try to break free? Run away? But where would he even go? I had a bigger issue I needed to be concerned about as well. Could Alex an
~Grace~ Thank god everything worked. It was an ordeal getting everyone back on their feet. The entire clan had been affected by this curse, and everyone was hungry, cold, and exhausted. There were only a few of us who felt well enough to take care of people. Even Liam and his mother stay
