Chapter 90 - The Need to Feel HerMaxton’s hand moved to her arm, his fingers brushing her skin gently, and he could feel her shiver at the contact. He stepped even closer as he spoke softly to her, trying to comfort her in a way he could at the moment, to ease the burden she was carrying. He had already suspected before that she chose to disappear in a way that she had wanted to end her life because he had seen that that was the kind of girl she was, who was willing to save everyone by ending her life. He had seen it before when she cut her own arm and let herself bleed out in order to save him from her own hands, and she did it again, drowned herself, not only to escape her sins, but also to spare the Maxton and his region from getting attacked because of her, for as centuries had shown, silver eyed werewolves were and had always been hunted down, and she did not want to put Maxton and his region at risk of those attacks just because of her.“The war is over, Georgia. The region has
Chapter 91 - A Desire: Mate Bond’s DemandHis lips brushed hers softly at first, a fleeting touch, testing the waters, and she did not flinch. She did not pull back. If anything, she leaned in, just barely, but it was enough. This subtle response from Georgia was a signal for Maxton to proceed. He pressed his lips to hers again, this time more firmly, the kiss deepening as the floodgates they built within themselves, to protect themselves from each other, broke open, pouring out the desire and feelings they held out for too long.The moment Georgia allowed herself to respond, it was as if something inside her shattered. All the conditions she had set for herself, all the restraint she had been holding onto for so long, unraveled in that kiss. She kissed him back, with a hunger she did not know she had been suppressing. Her fingers curled into the fabric of his shirt, pulling him closer as if afraid he might disappear if she did not hold onto him tight enough. Every part of her body se
Chapter 92 - Desire, Hunger, and NeedGeorgia’s hands moved down his chest, fingers trembling slightly as they slipped under the hem of his shirt, feeling the hard, defined muscles beneath. She had seen him before, topless, when she was under the influence of the Soulbane Drug, but she was out of her own mind that time and could not process what he was, however, the memory remained in her head, and she had never had the chance to touch him like this, and she never knew this was intoxicating. Her palms slid up, pushing his shirt higher until he helped her pull it off, tossing it aside without a care. Her breath hitched at the sight of him, his skin glistening in the dim light, every muscle taut, his chest rising and falling rapidly. She swallowed and could not take her eyes off him. Seeing someone naked was not new to her since wolves shifted back to their human forms naked, but for her, Maxton was causing a different sensation in her, it was driving something hot in her system.Maxton
Chapter 93 - Bodies IntertwinedGeorgia gasped when she felt his finger go deeper to her entrance, teasing, and testing if she was ready, her hands clutching at his shoulders as her knees wobbled. “Maxton,” she moaned and stared into his eyes, telling him what she wanted, needed.And that was all he needed to know before he slid a finger inside her, then another, and she cried out, her head falling back against the wall, her hips moving against his hand, desperate for more, for him. He moved his other hand to lift her left leg, giving more access for his finger to go deeper into her pussy as he pumped his fingers slowly at first, his thumb brushing over her clit, making her tremble and weak, and her pussy tightening around him. “F*ck,” Maxton muttered under his breath, “you feel so tight, baby.” He moved his fingers faster and harder, stretching her, making sure he was wet and open enough for him when he plunge his cock deep into her. The thought made his cock twitch, throbbing, a pr
Chapter 94 - Seashells and Island’s SecretGeorgia took a moment to fix her hair and smoothen her clothes, tugging the fabric back into place as if each motion could erase the intimacy that had passed between them. Her fingers lingered on her collar, her heartbeat finally slowing, her breath no longer a ragged thing in her chest. As she glanced at Maxton, she found him similarly composed, his hands running over his shirt, face now a mask of calm readiness. The silence between them held everything left unsaid, the intense moment that had shared already spoke so much, enough for them to understand each other. She gave one final tug to her skirt and nodded to Maxton as they decided to walk out of the cave as if nothing had happened. His hand rested on her back as together they stepped back toward the beach.Yenari, and everyone else who waited for them turned their eyes on their
Chapter 95 - FarewellYenari gave a nod, though his gaze remained serious. “She means something to all of us here,” he said. “If she’s with you, Maxton, then I expect you to protect her. She has suffered more than you know.”“I intend to do exactly that,” Maxton replied.Yenari’s expression softened, but only slightly. “If she ever needs a safe place again, know that Havalu will welcome her back. This island will always be here for her.”Maxton paused, considering Yenari’s words. This was not about their territorial instincts or jealousy; it was about Georgia’s safety, her peace, and he would consider whatever refuge was offered to make her safe. “I appreciate that,” he said, sincerely. He owed the island and
Chapter 96 - A Cold WelcomeGeorgia stood on the balcony of the King’s private manor, her hands resting on the cool marble railing. Her silver eyes scanned the vast, sprawling landscape of Western Le Roma, where golden sunlight painted the rooftops and dust drifted through the air in lazy swirls. Even with the warmth of the morning, the chill in her chest refused to dissipate.It had been weeks since she had returned, weeks of hiding from curious and judgmental gazes, of feeling like a ghost in a land that was not quite home. Havalu had given her peace, a sense of belonging she never expected to find, but here in Le Roma, the stares of the people were constant, though silent. Fear. Curiosity. Anger. Respect. All emotions she could read in their eyes without them uttering a word.A knock sounded behind her, and she flinched, her knuckles tightening around the railing. Her heart raced until she heard the familiar, comforting voice. “Georgia,” Maxton called gently, stepping onto the bal
Chapter 97 - The Public’s JudgmentGeorgia had not planned to leave the safety of the manor so soon, and forever hide from the judgment of the outside world. But Maxton had been gently insistent. “You can’t hide forever,” he had said, and despite her fears, she knew he was right. He had gradually encouraged her to endure and move on, to take the blow for now and let it dissipate when the people get tired of talking about it, or when their perspective towards her changes. It would be harder if she remained hidden because time and time again people would talk about it whenever she would come out. He thought it would be better if they saw her often so they would get used to being with her and see that she was harmless and kind. So now, here she was, walking through the bustling streets of West Le Roma, with Maxton at her side. His presence was there for support and a shield, but even that could not protect her from the harshness of the world outside the manor gates. Every pair of eyes s
Chapter 98 - Scarred QueenGeorgia leaned against the doorway of their room, her head tilted back as she tried to breathe through the hectic day. Actually, it should not have been that tiring, but it was her mental and emotional crate that had been drained by hearing the judgments of the people as well as receiving their stares that pierced her back. The echoes of whispered disdain and guarded gazes still rang in her ears, mingling with the ache of rejection that sat heavy in her chest. She had not realized how much she was shaking until Maxton stepped behind her, wrapping his arms around her body, calming her down, and letting his warmth soothe her.“Hey,” he murmured softly in her ear. “You are safe now.”She did not answer right away, her fingers curling into fists at her sides. “It’s not about being safe,” she replied but her voice was quiet. “It’s about feeling… seen. And not in the way I want to be.”Maxton’s hands came to rest on her shoulders, firmly reassuring her. “Georgia,
