The three women exchanged smiles before looking at me and agreeing to stop.“We’re just trying to figure out how crazy your man is,” Tia Mel finally stated, her fingers going over the earth witch logo on the box. “And if ,whatever kinky shit you’re getting into, he’s making sure you’re safe.”“Even
“Oh Aria is probably worried about me being here alone,” Tia Mel said with a wave of her hand. “She really should have gone home. I thought once she passed fifty, she’d learn to take it easy. But noooo. Aria’s always worried about me.” Tia Mel sighed. “I supposed you can let her in. We can portal ho
“Why would she do that to her own baby?” Mama asked, a hand over her mouth."His mother was a power-hungry unstable bitch who thought Gabe would be weak because his father was a beta.” My voice cracked at the end of the sentence."Oh honey, that's just cruel," she whispered, her own voice breaking.
**Evelina’s POV**We stood in the infirmary; everyone worried sick because Tia Mel seemed to have been knocked out cold after my question about the box. At first, she had barely been breathing, but Gabe had called in all his medical staff to help stabilize Tia Mel. I’d also used my magic and Amaya h
“Look at him! Discussing killing people like he’s discussing the weather! I’m telling you, Kyle, he did something to my Mel!” “He didn’t do anything! He was with our brothers and Chris in his study!” Aunt Janet finally intervened, stalking towards her brother as well. Amaya and Aunt Janet had been
“Oh my goddess,” Mama choked out and wiped the tears away while Dad looked at her blankly and then at Gabe. “What did you say to make her cry?” “It was b-beautiful!” Mama sobbed, dabbing her eyes with tissue. “Oh Evelina, he’s perfect!” “If it’s beautiful then why are you crying?” Dad asked blank
**Gabe’s POV**I stood with Amaya and my mate’s parents, on the outskirts of my pack where the landing pad for my jet was located. I’d arranged for my jet to transport Coven Head Melanie to her coven headquarters. Portalling created rifts through time and space. And due to the delicate nature of her
“Wanna go grab a drink?” I supplied. “My men can escort my mate’s parents back to my house.”Amaya nodded jerkily, her face still stricken as if she’d been struck by lightning with the revelation that she had a werewolf mate.“Evelina’s waiting for you back at the house, Mrs. Sinclair,” I said polit
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
