Soon, we were all drowned in our own conversations, but Ethan remained silent. By now, I had deciphered that he was a man of few words. However, his silence did seem strange to me. He seemed distracted, his mind traveled to a far away land. A frown formed on the bridge of his nose as he looked straight ahead, his lips pursed. It was evident that he was paying no heed to what we were saying and I wasn’t alone to pick up on it. Natalie noticed it too and had eventually decided to call him out.
“I can hear the gears in your head turning.” Natalie pointed out, looking at Ethan. “What are you thinking about?”
“About the attack,” he said, “I just can’t ignore the fact that they meant to attack Kiara as well. Everything makes perfect sense now.”

As I watched the moving trees through the window glass, I couldn’t help but ignore the trepidations in my heart. My cold, clammy fingers were entwined with Marcus’ who was sleeping peacefully on my shoulder. After a week of his treatment and finishing up work in the school, I could imagine why he was so eager to go back to Windshire. To his home. We had started early in the morning before dawn, and the sun rays were now streaming through the tall trees. Since we were riding by car, Ethan thought it was best if we left in the early hours when there was little congestion on the road. He was right, since it had been a smooth journey so far. I wonder how long it would take to reach. I heaved a huge sigh, trying to calm my nerves, but it didn’t help. I was nervous. “Are you okay?” I heard him whisper in my ear, his head lifting off of me. I nodded, “Sorry.” He sat up straight, pulling an arm around my figure to pull me closer. I leaned into his embrace as he pecked my forehead.
Marcus was momentarily paralyzed under her touch, but he was quick to regain his composure. At once, he pushed her away by her arms, forcing a distance of a foot between them.“Audrey.” He warned her in a strict tone.“What?” She frowned at him, “I see you after months and you won’t even let your fiancé kiss you?”My heart sank.Fiancé?I watched her amber eyes regarding Marcus with disappointment, a pout forming on her lips. She had thick black hair that reached her waist, perfecting complimenting her tanned skin. Her voluptuous physique only made her more attractive, and she was aware of it too. Her tall figure towered over the average woman, an
I didn’t get out of the room the entire day, for I had no idea how I’d face them. I wasn’t even sure if Marcus was in the house. It wasn’t until someone knocked on the door that I realized it was already time for dinner.“I’m not hungry,” I muttered, before closing the door again.Few minutes elapsed before the door opened again. However, this time, it was the devil himself. With a plain face, he leaned against the door behind and crossed his arms.“You’re not hungry?”I shook my head, looking away from him.“You haven't eaten anything since morning.”
I didn’t realize when Marcus came to the room last night, but when I woke up the next morning, his arm was draped over my body. Twisting in my place to get a better look at him, I found him peacefully sleeping. It was tempting to remain snuggled up within his body, but my stomach was growling. Since I barely had anything to eat yesterday, it was only natural that I woke up starving.After quickly getting ready so I looked presentable, I went down the stairs. It was relatively early so I hoped I wouldn’t have to encounter anyone.As I got down the stairs, I realized that our room was on the second floor along with a few other rooms and a large open space inside and outdoors. As for the first floor, it was mostly bedrooms. I should ask Marcus to give me a private tour of this place once he wakes up so I wouldn&r
Bella really didn’t like me.It had been two hours since we left the Mansion and not even a word was addressed to me. While she occasionally spoke to Bernard, who was accompanying us to the town, she took special precaution to not have to talk to me. The thought made me worry. How was I to make things with her if she refused to talk to me?“Where are we going after this?” I asked her from behind.She was accompanying Bernard in the front passenger seat, sipping on her bubble tea. “I need to meet a friend, but you can go anywhere you want.”I earned a sad look from Bernard on the mirror placed between them. He too realized that she was giving me a tough time. Bern
“Wait, you know her?” Kayla asked.“Of course.” She gritted, “This is the girl that bewitched Mark and stole him from me.”“What?” Kayla looked at me, appalled.“You misunderstand,” I said, “Marcus is my-”“Bullshit. You are not his mate.” She said, “Mark was always meant to be mine. He even agreed to be with me until you came along. What love potion did you give him to make him change his mind?”“Audrey, that’s enough.” Bernard came to my rescue.&ld
“Hi.” I said in a low tone, trying hard to not make it sound like a lust-ful sigh.He merely watched me as I moved across the room to grab my moisturizer, before settling down on the edge of the bed. Sprawling my legs out long, I leaned against the backrest. I felt the heat of his gaze all along, and I reveled in it.“What did you do in town?” He suddenly asked.I cleared my voice before saying, “Nothing much. Some shopping-”“Shopping?” He asked, resting his elbow over his head on the wall.“Y-yes.” I said.
He sucked on my skin as he slowly moved downward, surely leaving behind some marks. As he reached my pelvis, ever so gently, he kissed it. Again. And again. He showered my skin with kisses, slowly moving downwards.“So wet, Kiara.” He said, peeling my legs apart. As my vagina was bare to his eyes, he brought his fingers gently to collect my juices. And then, he slowly introduced his fingers into me. I felt my vaginal walls tighten around him, as though rejecting me, white in reality, I simply couldn’t get enough of him.I felt his breath on me as he inched closer to my aching bud. This time, he didn’t take long to devour it with his mouth. Engulfing it entirely, he gently sucked on it, all the while his finger gently moved in and out of me.
