LAIKA Staying mad at MOLART means I will not get the petals of life for a long while. I must think of what I want. It was a few hours before dawn, and tomorrow was my last day getting the petal. I quickly stood when I heard MOLART's footsteps. He stood by the entrance in no time, and I glared
'Laika, you said everything, and everyone deserves forgiveness. I feel he is remorseful now, and that is what his mother wants,' Joy whispered in my head. I rolled my eyes. My heart was soft, and I could not hold grudges, especially against people who had helped me. That was my weakest point.
LAIKA I was quiet after the revelation MOLART or should I say my father made. He urged me to go to the open space and wait for him to come over and teach me his skill. I do not know if I will learn such a skill in a few hours, but if he believes in me, I believe in myself too. He cam
LAIKA I watched the smokey shadow as it plummeted from the sky toward me. It was so fast that I did not know what to do. My feet were suddenly rooted to the ground as I watched it. "Laika!" MOLART yelled my name, and the next thing, I was whisked away from my position. The spiri
LAIKA I coughed and sat down on the floor to regain my strength. I recognized where I was, but it would take me a while to return to the Titan pack and save Karim. However, my heart was still heavy from the loss of MOLART. Never in my life did I ever think that I would feel sad if he died.
He came at me again; I knew I had to disarm him to get back to Karim. I already overslept in MOLART's cave. The sun was already standing in the middle of the sky, and soon, it would go down into the ocean. I needed to get back to my mate before it set. When next, this giant lifted the weapon on me,
LAIKA 'Laika, you have no weapons to defend yourself. It is time to use your powers. I know you are afraid that you might be unable to control it, but you will not know if you have never tried. Follow every step that MOLART taught you,' Joy said. I looked around the forest and saw not
LAIKA I was almost getting to the pack, so I tried to mind-link Sekani, but he was blocked off from me. I staggered along. My entire body ached with pain, but my wounds were healing because Joy was full of strength. Once I was at the tip of the forest, I saw some dead warriors, and my heart sk

"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
