I could see the anger and resentment in Alpha Lorenzo’s eyes, but there was also a glint of something else – respect.Nico leaned back in his chair, a smirk curling on his lips.“Perhaps we can find other ways to make an alliance that benefits us all? Afterall, we each have something the other doesn
**Gabe’s POV**My eyes narrowed on Vincent hugging the tiny woman to him as the woman in question struggled to get out of his grasp.I did not like when unexpected events occurred, even if they were to my advantage. For one, now Vincent would want to take this woman back to our pack. That didn’t sit
There was a reason I was Kirsty’s guardian. As one of the most formidable Dons in Spain, there were many people out to get me. By extension, they targeted my family. Kirsty was watched 24/7 by my men. Similar to how I’d had Evelina watched. However, Kirsty was guarded out of an obligation. Because s
My expectation from the getgo was for people to underestimate her because she was human. I’d expected to be the one to stick up for her where required. But it seemed my mate made an impression on even the strongest of alphas. Nico wasn’t just any normal alpha. He was a sun wolf. His entire pack cons
**Gabe’s POV** The final notes of the song rang out right as she moved to press her mouth more firmly against mine. Her soft lips pressed against mine in a way that made my heart race faster. However, just as I moved to deepen the kiss, her eyes snapped open at the sound of the music fading, and sh
I felt a sliver of disappointment over the fact that she was no longer bleeding down here, but it was quickly overpowered by the excitement of finally getting to taste her. Evelina’s hands wrapped more firmly around my head, fingers curling and grabbing fistfuls of my hair as she urged me closer. I
I tugged at the neckline of her dress, and her breasts sprang free, naked and flushed from the desire I was making her feel. “Quiero devorar estas tetas. (I want to devour these tits),” I grunted, cupping them in my hands. I looked at her and admired the way her bruised lips parted eagerly. Evelina
**Evelina’s POV**If Gabe thought he could manipulate me into taking the ring off by denying me an orgasm, well, that mother.fu.cker had another thing coming. I made sure he had a clear view of my pussy as I pulled my dress up with my left hand and let my right hand seductively trail down to the V b
At those words, a sense of peace washed over me. I knew that, as much as I loved Evelina, I was also beginning to understand my duty and my role in the grander scheme of things. “You want me to believe that my love for Evelina and this land will make me strong enough to protect her? Even against gr
She leaned in and took my length into her mouth, making me jerk. I moaned her name and knew this moment would be etched into my mind forever as she bobbed her head up and down, and her eyes met mine expectantly. I watched Evelina’s eyes, full of love and desire as she pleasured me. Her warm mouth e
**Gabe’s POV** I entered the room Evelina and I were staying in to see Evelina sitting up in bed with a book in her hand. It took me a minute to realize it was the witch book that Sister Agnes had given her. She put the book down and glanced up at me, eyes full of concern. “I went looking for you,
“CARAJO!” he yelled in anger. “I just think your mate needs to work on his temper,” Syra added distastefully. “Cursing in the sacred realm of Avalon is frowned upon!” Syra yelled loudly towards Gabe. Gabe looked at her and said something in Spanish that made me gasp in mortification. “¡Que te den
The darkness receded as quickly as it had come, replaced by the vibrant colors of Avalon once more. The stream sparkled in the sunlight, the trees swayed gently in the breeze, and the flowers bloomed in their full glory. I took a deep breath, and then let out a small yelp of surprise when I realized
**Evelina's PoV** The misty air wrapped around us like a nurturing shawl, the soothing sound of the stream a constant background music as the vibrant greenery enveloped me in its embrace, a living sanctuary of peace and magic. Trees towered above us, their vibrant green leaves dancing in the gentl
Suddenly, the trials I had had to face in the forest of reflection made complete sense. It was a trial Syra had faced herself, though in a completely different context. “You cannot blame yourself for your sister's choices,” Gabe finally grunted, crossing his arms. “You are right, Gabriel. I cannot
**Evelina's POV** Apparently she had been in Gabe’s vision as well. Because he immediately moved to shield me with his body and extended his claws defensively, poised to attack Sarah. “You’re the evil witch from the past!” he growled out. “I won’t let you harm my mate!” Sarah looked at Gabe and r
Sarah’s eyes widened in shock and fear as she saw the intensity of light glowing in my hands.“How…is this possible? You wield it…” she trailed off, looking around for the torches we had often used to carry the light of the flame into battle. Looking for the chest that often held a remnant of the fl
