“What a headache this girl is!”She would have usually called maids to get rid of me, but that day she took me back to my room and stayed there for an hour.“It’s all your fault, so stop with your drama. My Niko is a boy. What does he know? You were in heat. You should have been more careful. Don’t
[Asher]Why did I bring you here, Xanthea?Out of all the beautiful places I could have taken you, why did I bring you into this darkness?Is it because no one in all the three realms knows of this place—not my family, not even Raven and Ezra?Or is it because I wanted you to know this place? But wh
‘Fucking stop it! You are hurting her!’ She went through a little pain and Icifer turned feral.I kept peering at her, replying to all of Icifer’s restlessness with my silence as I observed Xanthea closely.“This is not real…” she mumbled to herself, tears streaming down her face. “It can’t be real.
“It feels like you are everywhere in this darkness,” she said. “Senses don’t seem to work normally here. From your voice, it seems as though you are standing at some distance but…”She turned around in her place. Her eyes hovering in the air around me. She couldn’t see it, but she was standing face
[Asher]“Mad at you?” she chuckled; her voice dripped with bitter sarcasm. “I am sorry, alpha, but I don’t remember ever having the luxury of being mad at you. And for what? For bringing me into this delightful, traumatizing dark room where illusion blurs into reality with sheer madness?”Xanthea li
“Love?” she winced.“Yes. Love…” I reiterated in a soft whisper. “How does it feel to be in love, Xanthea?”Taking a tight gulp, she stepped away from me.“Stop playing with me, Asher. I am not a toy…” her voice quivered.“I am not playing with you. I am honestly curious,” I said, stepping closer to
Her words ignited every nerve beneath my skin.“I’ll do whatever you—ungh!” Wrapping my palm gently around her throat, I pulled her into a desperate, rough kiss, swallowing all her whimpers and moans. Sparks instantly clouded our minds, and I watched her knit her brows as she tightly shut her eyes
[Xanthea]“Ah!”Our bodies collided with feverish intensity, creating an intoxicating mix of pain and pleasure as he slammed inside me.Moans shivered out of my mouth as he fucked me harder from behind. His thrusts were more unyielding than when he had started.My body moved just an inch away from h
“Dragons, especially dead dragons, don’t make mistakes, Raven,” Asher said firmly, holding my gaze. “There is no greater healer than a dragon, and they chose you. They responded to the purity of your heart and blessed you. So that night, when you felt nothing but helpless, you unknowingly came up wi
[Raven]Asher peered at me, his gaze lingering longer than usual, before turning toward the distant walls with a heavy sigh.“I can’t believe you are saying this,” Asher said.I lowered my eyes.“Me too,” I admitted, my voice quiet. “I can’t believe I want those people near Ezra again, but… my knowl
It took him a few minutes to fully return to reality. He squinted his eyes, his hand pressing to his forehead as if trying to orient himself.“Raven?” He mumbled.I stared at him, panting. Licking the dryness from my lips, I forced myself to calm down, trying to hide the frenzied worry that had cons
A dense forest now sprawled across the grounds where the FA facility once stood. Beyond the woods loomed the accursed walls, cloaked in vines and creeping vegetation, still as tall and foreboding as ever.My blood boiled with uncontainable rage every time I saw this place. Why Asher hadn’t torn down
[Raven]“The sutures are stable, Alpha, but… Alpha Ezra’s wounds aren’t healing.”“No potion, in any dose, is effective.”“It’s almost as though something is blocking his recovery.”I ran my fingers through my hair, trying to pacify the throbbing headache as I went through the scrolls of medical not
“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
