[Xanthea] “She is not our pet or a toy. She is our bride.” I lifted my bleary gaze at Asher. Silent tears trailed down my eyes as I contemplated him. Something warm fluttered through the cold anxiety in my chest. He looked at me, and I quickly lowered my gaze, feeling my cheeks flush up. He squ
Ezra rubbed his erection against my ass. It was still slippery from the lube Asher had fingered my backside with. “Relax, bride. We have prepared you enough to take it, but if you don’t relax, it will hurt.” He kissed my neck. I felt the hair on my body stand up. My heart thudded as I realized wha
Similar ecstasy built up in my body like it had before, but this time, it was a lot more intense. And with Asher kissing me now and then, I could no longer think. “Oh god!” I cried. “Not god, baby. We are your demons,” Ezra growled, pounding faster. “Call my name, Xanthea,” Asher groaned and a ti
[Xanthea] Ezra stood motionless. His knuckles cracked as he curled his fingers into a tight fist. A chill quavered down my spine as he turned around, his glare stripping nerves right off my skin. The surrounding air grew thick with an ominous tension. “This has never happened before. I warned you
My cheeks instantly flushed up. I didn’t know how I would look at myself in the mirror after going through everything I went through ever since I met the triplets. I still couldn’t believe how fast my life had made a backflip, somersaulted all its way until it jumped off the cliff. “By the way, I
[Xanthea] We walked through the luxurious corridors of the castle that were in shades of gray, white, black, and golden gothic aesthetics. Black and golden mostly dominated the decor. Same as my room. The floor I walked on was mostly covered with black marble, with intricate golden patterns carved
Cedric looked at Nesryn. Nesryn scoffed. Cedric looked back at me and continued. “She scoffs modestly. She has an active running business and also has a spy network reaching the celestial packs. Therefore, she is their favorite family member because she is useful. They say I’ll be useful to them on
[Xanthea] Taken aback, I gaped at the woman sitting in the wheelchair in her pristine aura — the High lady of the house and the triplet’s mother. Lady Demetria was dressed in a flowing, pure white gown. Her eyes were covered with a white blindfold. Every strand of her silky long hair was as white
There were glimpses and unfinished sentences. Lifeless body of a child, probably a weak blood.‘Another disappointm—’Peeled skin. Severed muscles.‘Burn him, prepare the other—’Eyeballs leaking from the eye sockets. People struggling as her helpers stuffed clothes in their mouth to muffle their gr
Experimenting on living subjects thrilled her. It was all fun for her. It was astonishing how she remained utterly undisturbed by it all. She justified every action with the belief that it was for the advancement of healing and immortality.‘Thank you for your contribution,’ she would say to each te
‘And that is why they will be punished as well,’ Alpha Caelum replied coldly. ‘As for you, you are hereby expelled from the Solvaris pack — and the Celestial realm.’My mother looked devastated, but she didn’t plead for mercy.‘I accept,’ she said brazenly as she strutted out of the court.With a sl
[Xanthea]I stared at Asher, my chest tightening as his words echoed in the air, heavy and inescapable. My mind scrambled to process what he had just said.“No.” The word slipped out, trembling and frail. “That’s not… It’s not possible.”Asher’s gaze remained distant. There was a cruel pity in the w
I shook my head, tears streaming down my eyes incessantly.I wanted to deny it all, forget it all, but even a fleeting glimpse was enough to carve it into my memory forever. The horrors I had already witnessed sent shivers through my body, and just the thought of what more might lie ahead filled me
Even so, I could neither wake up nor save myself. I had been buried in a grave of my mother’s memories in the middle of nowhere. Some of them were so horrifying, for a second I thought I was losing my mind.I couldn’t breathe. I couldn’t understand. I was suffocating, but I knew that even death woul
[Xanthea]‘May you find my guilt at the right time and may it save you from your own. May you find answers to all your questions in my memories and I hope you hate me a little less.’A woman’s voice echoed in the back of my mind, weaving through the symphony of shattering glass when my eyes locked w
Ezra staggered backward. His gaze flickered toward her one last time before we lost him.The next few minutes felt to have slowed and stretched into hours.With every shuffle of feet and the soldier’s attempt to minimize damage, chaos rose like doom.I glanced towards the door, opening it up. Nesryn
Ezra clenched his jaws while his expression flickered — anguish broke through the hardened lines of his face. His eyes, pained and bleary, betrayed all his senses.Unable to summon words or reason, Ezra stepped forward and pulled her into his arms.“I can’t…” His voice cracked, unguarded. “Please, d
