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
She reached out her shaking fingers to my face. Lifting the hem of my gown, I kneeled on the floor in front of her wheelchair. I shut my eyes as her fingers traced every line on my face. The ringing silence prevailed. Her hand trailed down my face, over my chest. My heart pounded beneath the war
“Asher…” I whimpered, unsure if I wanted him to stop his steps or words.“I am used to being invisible to everyone around me, but not you. Please, not you,” he begged, his voice raw as he fought to keep his composure.I shut my eyes, covering my face with my hands, hoping to gather myself, but I end
The distance between us was nothing, yet I kept my head low. Not because his aura had turned heavier, nor because I could feel his gaze searing into my soul, but because I was terrified. Terrified that this time, when I looked into his eyes, I would see the love I had only dreamt of.After a long mo
Electric sparks ignited beneath my skin at his touch, as though my body were the black, blank night sky and he was the moon, the stars, the clouds and everything cosmic.When his lips finally met mine, a weak smile quivered on my face as tears traced warm paths down my cheeks, every inch of my body
[Xanthea]A shroud of darkness enveloped me as his wings wrapped around us in an embrace that had never felt so hollow and full at the same time.My entire existence had abruptly been reduced to a body.My body felt alien. A hollow shell that carried my mother’s sins in every fiber. I wanted to rip
“Our kids are the backups to stop the curse. Even if it doesn’t end with us, it’ll end with them,” he said matter-of-factly, his tone devoid of the gravity his words carried.“But that still doesn’t solve anything,” I said.“I know,” he said. “The kids will be weak. While they wouldn’t feed the curs
“You know all the right answers, still you choose the one that’s convenient for you,” he said with a chuckle.My nails dug into my palm, biting into my skin as I tightened my fists.“Unfortunately, I can’t choose what’s convenient for me, love. And I can’t let you, my wife, choose what’s less painfu
[Xanthea]All the information about the generational curses in my mother’s knowledge and memories flooded my mind.My eyes leafed through the pages of the books and diaries.“Generational curses feed on the existence of the affected immortal. The stronger the immortal it consumes, the more malignant
‘The physical form will fall apart!’‘We cannot let that happen! Ezra has finally become someone worthy of being my son! Starsoul, save him,’ Deimos ordered my mother, but she wasn’t listening.Her eyes were fixed on Ezra. She was sweating and trembling as though some voice in her head haunted her,
I shook my head, biting down my lips.“Don’t do this to yourself, Ezra… please… stop… just stop now…” I choked on my words.Asher took a deep breath and spoke in a shaking voice.“Ezra kept carrying her dead body for days... until her body started to decompose and rot on his shoulders.”Tears blurre
