Micah’s POV I watch her as she watches me. Her moss green eyes are wide, brimming with tears that make them glisten like emeralds. There is so much hope in them that it gives something away in my heart. Suddenly, everything is clear to me. The answer was there all along. Plain as day. I had consta
"Your scruffy cheeks are tickling me, husband," she teases, her voice a melodic symphony that I've missed more than I realized. A mischievous smile spreads across my face. "Oh, it tickles, does it?" I say, my fingers dancing along her sides. Her eyes narrow playfully, and before she can react, I b

"However," Queen Alara adds with a touch of bitterness, "now, despite being his chosen Queen, I am aware that he doesn't hold me in the highest regard.

I have everything planned down to the last bit and the excitement of tonight has me breaking into a smile I’m powerless to stop. I place the box in a little gift bag and turn around to leave the laboratory. The fluorescent lights flicker above as I make my way toward the exit of Silver Moon Scents.
Micah’s POV The door clicks shut behind me, and the darkness wraps around me like a heavy cloak. All the lights in the house are turned off. The air is still, and the usual hum of appliances is absent. I furrow my brows, puzzled, as I loosen my tie and drop my briefcase by the entrance. "Fiona?"

Fiona’s POVI move to pick up the almost empty coffee cup, next to me but my hand twitches and it suddenly shatters in my hands. Shocked by my own strength, I stare at the broken pieces.Ever since Micah and I marked each other, it’s like I’ve been changing. Somehow, my senses have gotten sharper. I
He arches an eyebrow, clearly unsatisfied. “Louder.”“I’m yours,” I repeat, my voice stronger this time, but still shaky. He gives me another teasing stroke, and I can’t help but moan.“Louder, Fiona. I need to hear you,” he says, his voice a mix of demand and dark promise. He brushes his thumb over

“Maybe, you were always cautious in your ways, Jeremy but I am sure the same can’t be said about Aunt Emma and her son. Starting there will probably be a good trail that will help expose your crimes.” I continue, watching as he becomes more and more agitated.“How - how did you know?” He finally ask
