I hollowed my cheeks, bobbing my head up and down as I sucked him off. Ferris’ loud moans filled the room. I held the base and kept sucking. His moans urged me on. I took as much of him as I could, making myself gag. I wanted to keep going. I wanted to please him more than anything.I kept going til

ELISE'S POV Sophie and I returned to the palace with our shopping bags in hands. We bought a lot of stuff and I got things for her as well. I noticed that Sophie seemed more excited now. She bounced as she walked. There was a twinkle in her eyes I couldn't explain. What was going on with her?
I sighed, letting out a nervous laugh. “This feels ridiculous. Are you sure I’m not going to trip and fall?” “I won’t let that happen,” Sophie reassured me. “Now, hold onto my arm and just follow my lead.” I did as she asked, clutching her arm as she guided me. Each step felt uncertain, and my sen
Elise's POV My heart was still racing from Ferris’s proposal. Every time I looked at the ring on my finger, I felt excited. I couldn't believe this. I was engaged to Ferris! Mated werewolves didn't usually bother with weddings. So, this was a big deal. It showed how much Ferris cared and how much
FERRIS' PV As soon as I saw her, I opened my mouth slightly in shock. Her face was hidden behind a mask and a veil, but I could recognize her from miles away. No, it couldn’t be. Even with her face hidden, I knew it was her. I'd know her anywhere, no matter what. She wore a dress that clung to
JOAN’S POVThe stench of iron burned the inside of my nostrils.My wrists throbbed from the tightness of the enchanted shackles, and the cold stone beneath me did nothing to soothe the ache in my bones. Rats squealed somewhere nearby, likely celebrating the scent of blood left from the last mad soul

FERRIS' POV Everything changed as soon as Farrell walked in. Damn him, he always knew how to make an entrance. He held a drive in his gloved hand—small, silver,. But the weight of it? I could already tell it was heavy enough to shake kingdoms. “Farrell,” I called “What’s this?” He looked up at
FERRIS' POV. “Alpha,” Eden’s voice was barely a whisper as he stood behind me. I didn't even remember that he was present. That's how occupied I've been “Tell me you have a plan. Please.” I turned to him. The exhaustion in my bones was so heavy I could barely shake my head. “I have nothing,” I wh

I caught up to Farrell, my boots sinking into damp earth. "Where are we—""You'll see." He didn't look back.The trees grew thicker, branches clawing at my arms. My pulse hammered in my throat. Then I saw it—a jagged mouth of rock yawning open in the hillside. The cave exhaled a breath of something rotten.I pressed a hand to my stomach.

ELISE’S POVI stared at the man before us. His body was restrained. His face was bruised and swollen due to the beating Farrell and Henry had given him, yet I could see a hint of arrogance in his eyes. He looked at us like he had already won. He sat in the chair, bound with thick chains. His pants
