Contemplating, I pursed my lips before answering. “B-bra…” He chuckled. I lifted my gaze at him, feeling my face burn with embarrassment. There was something different about his laughter. Maybe that’s what a hearty laughter sounded like. I peered at him, dumbfounded. I could have never imagined
[Xanthea] Opening the door of Raven’s car, I stepped out. Gasping, I gaped, transfixed at the Glass palace. The multistorey palace was made of transparent glass. Glass palace was especially built to keep all the vehicles owned by the triplet alphas. I unconsciously stepped off the road onto the
My eyes met a few staff members before they bowed and, out of habit and utter awkwardness, I bowed back. “If you love bowing so much, I can make you bow in a lot better positions,” Raven said nonchalantly, his eyes fixed on his phone screen. I felt a tingly flutter erupt in my belly at his words.
“I-Is he… here?” I asked hesitantly. Raven tilted his head, a smirk playing across his eyes. “You want him here?” “I thought maybe… he was here because of the company…” “Just because we own something doesn’t mean we’ll be taking care of it day and night. A company this big can function all on it
[Xanthea] “I… am sorry…” My heart hammered wildly in my chest as I impulsively blurted out the stream of apologies. Still perched on his shoes, I loosened my grip on his clothes, but he still held me just as tight against himself until he let go abruptly and I stumbled to the floor. Bringing my
Maybe that is why he hates me, because an omega is not a standard match for an Alpha. “Good…” His praise shocked me and I tried to not look too excited. I just took a deep breath and kept driving the hoverboard independently again as he walked behind me. “Now speed up a little,” he commanded, an
I contemplated the bike’s slanting seat. It was so high. How was I supposed to sit on it? “When I said I wouldn’t let you fall… I wasn’t just talking about the hoverboard,” he said in an impassive tone. I contemplated my reflection in the shield of his helmet. I couldn’t see his face or his expres
[Xanthea] Raven drove slowly into the university premises. Pulling up the shield of my helmet, I looked at the grand statue of the four horned devil wearing a skeletal mask. Several smaller demon statues surrounded him. The wings of all those demons were broken. The smaller demons clambered on o
So… the celestials know about the curse and the throne madness.The throne madness, huh?Right. That was the very reason the curse was created in the first place.I looked at Asher and all the instances of Alpha Deimos, the demon lords’ father, suffering from the madness flashed before my eyes.Moth
The prince took a quick gulp before reading the letter addressed to my grandfather.“~Father. A lot happened after I fell from grace. I’ve missed you, mother and my siblings dearly over all these years. I want to tell you so many things, but perhaps it’s better if I don’t. Yet, there’s a part of my
Nikolai read the letter further where mother revealed her real identity to Alpha Valdimir and she assured him that the celestials would help him protect his pack.She specifically asked him to burn down her books and diaries before interacting with the celestials. Doing so would break the seal on th
[Xanthea]“These letters are enchanted and only the ones they are addressed to can unseal or open them,” the prince said.He paused.“They’ve been kept in Alpha Valdimir’s care since your mother’s death. All of them have been opened by their addressees… except yours.”“Alpha Valdimir gave me everyth
But Asher—Every inch of him was covered in them. Dense. Spreading. There wasn’t an inch of his body that hadn’t been wounded critically.How is this even possible?What the hell has he been through to end up like this?No… who did this to him?For a second, I thought it was the holy rain. Or maybe
“What’s there to understand about a grown-ass man who can’t even control his emotions? He looks like he’s a high rank celestial. Still, he lacks basic manners, etiquettes, even the rationality to fathom the consequences of his actions? He attacked the Alpha of the Infernal Pack. Do you think the Pri
[Xanthea]A sharp pulse of pain zapped through my head, every nerve and blood vessel screaming in agony. My muscles spasmed, my bones felt as if they were melting as the life force was yanked from my body and poured into my tongue — fueling the spell with raw energy.My vision blurred for a moment,
Mother had performed the spells and drawn the magic circles and symbols so many times that they became an instinct ingrained in her. And that instinct was passed down to me.I bit the tip of my finger. Ignoring Asher’s protests, I drew the recovery symbol, a symbol that accelerated healing, on his c
But I stayed calm, drawing in a deep breath while all my mother’s knowledge, experience and abilities manifested in their full force within me.I had naturally inherited 5% of my mother’s basic healer skills, which included things like instant diagnostic sight, blood analysis and manipulation, mana
