How can that be possible? But, Colin doesn’t seem to be deterred from my disbelief and continues, “Micah didn't invest in Mistyca to toy with you, Fiona. He did it because he missed you terribly, and wanted to support someone with a dream similar to yours. He wanted to hold on to something that rem

Fiona’s POV I follow him quietly as he takes me out of the venue. I follow him as he circles around until he leads me to the quiet alley adjacent to the building. I follow him as he takes me away from all the people, the noise, and the curious eyes. Then, he leaves my hand and I clench it to stop

Fiona’s POV This kiss is unlike any we have shared lately. There is a sweetness to it. It’s tender and affectionate and it hurts as much as I crave it. And, it’s cut too short. Somebody clears their throat, forcing us to break apart. Kieran stands there with a huge smile on his face. Amelia’s ha

Unsure of what to do, I move to help Rowena when the door to the bridal room bursts open.Micah strides in, his eyes narrow at the sight before him. Behind him, the Lycan King and Queen enter, followed by Jeremy and Leah. The tension in the room spikes instantly."What is all this commotion?" the Ki

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
