"Do you have anyone in mind?" He shook his head and shoved another spoonful into my mouth. "I know you do not want me to be near you, so I will not bother you, but you must stay out of trouble because I will not always be there to save you." I wanted to tell him that I wanted him ne
LAIKA I woke up from a dream with Alpha Khalid in it. I let out a cry as I jerked up, but muscular arms encircled me quickly and pulled me into a comforting embrace. It took me a few seconds to remember that I had slept in Alpha Karim's tent. The dream was so real, and it peaked my insecuri
This dress was a rag indeed. Madam Theresa had loosened the band, and it had too many holes that I stitched together, making it as shapeless as anything, but it was still my most comfortable dress. I do not know if my attachment to the dress was because it is my oldest belonging. I hated to discard
LAIKA Alpha Karim and some of his noblemen left the pack for a meeting and handed it over to some warriors and elders who were not interested in what went on in my life. I went back to wearing my old rag dress. I did not know who ripped my new dresses, but I knew someone was determined to kee
I shook my head. Sekani moved in front of me and squatted. I stared at him blankly. He turned his head to me and urged me to get on. But I shook my head. I will not climb onto his back, and I will not put him in an awkward position again. Since he had been seen with me in public, it was only typical
LAIKA I woke up when water splashed on my face. I inhaled and coughed as the water went into my nostrils. They have stopped beating me now, but I was bound in chains. The warriors and elders had come and called decorum and I did not see Madam Zora on the floor where she was before I passed out
With those words, she left me there. I crumpled to the ground and wept bitterly. I felt sick again and in no time; I slept off. I woke up again when I heard footsteps approaching. I jerked up from the ground. Maybe they have come to take me away. My death is here. But when I saw Sekani stan
ALPHA KARIM I tried as much as I could to concentrate on the meeting. Power could not stop jumping in my head, it was not a jump of excitement but one of agitation. I tried to mind-link any warrior from my pack, but I had instructed them specifically that I do not want any distractions once I

"Oh, that's excellent. I should get ready then." Morpheus headed for the bath but paused, turning to Mildred with a cocky grin. "Do you want to scrub my back?" Mildred eagerly agreed, starting to remove her dress. She was always enthusiastic to be with Morpheus. When they were both nude, he lifted
THREE FULL MOONS LATER... "My queen," the guard announced from the doorway, startling Mildred, who had been wrestling with nerves. It has been going on for several days. "What is it?" she inquired. "The royal visitors have arrived the planes of the kingdom." Mildred sprang from
"Penelope, come out," I urged. No response. "I need to talk to you." When silence persisted, I requested a flame torch, which was handed to me by a guard. Holding it up, I peered into the cell and found her lifeless body sprawled on the floor. The metallic scent of blood hung in the air. My heart
"Are you going to lie here all day admiring my perfection, or are you going to claim your crown?" he muttered and opened his eyes. Leaning in, he planted a lazy kiss on my lips. My heart fluttered as I remembered my inauguration ceremony today, and I was supposed to be getting dressed by the ladi
His eyes didn't intimidate me; I knew what it meant when they darkened. He buried his face between my legs, and when his tongue flicked over my throbbing wetness, a quick shiver ran into my blood; my thoughts became misty, and my leg wobbled, but he gripped my hips, holding me in place. "Mo
MILDRED I found myself torn between conflicting emotions regarding Morpheus for two days, so I distanced myself from him during that time. The choice between forgiving him and letting him go out of my life forever weighed heavily on my mind. He had made me cry the most since I met him, but the
"Of course, I want that," I replied earnestly. It was all I had ever yearned for. I longed to belong to someone so profoundly that I had wreaked havoc in Karim and Laika's lives. "I desire a family, someone to return to after the day's challenges, someone to share my thoughts with. I crave everlasti
MORPHEUS I moved silently down the dimly lit corridor of the palace, as quietly as I could, striving to avoid drawing attention or causing any disturbance with my unannounced departure. Everyone would discover my absence when they awoke. The palace remained hushed, although distant echoes of joyfu
