MORPHEUS 'Mate,' my wolf howled again in my head. That was when her lilac scent wafted into my nostrils and toyed with my senses. I felt something I had never felt before. Her scent was intoxicating, and all I wanted to do was wrap myself around her. I took a few steps toward her
"The fair lady will not survive, even if she was meant to. The smell from this place would send her back to the other side." I eyed him. "How dare you?" I growled, my anger growing. "I will get to work now," Odin replied, and bent beside the lady, not wanting to provoke me. I p
MILDRED I grunted and squeezed my eyes tighter as my head throbbed. I robbed the area where the pain was coming from, and my fingers were smeared with a paste. Consciousness gradually returned, along with my memories. I was running away from the palace. Where was I? I could not even remember
MORPHEUS I am freaking out and do not know how to control myself. I thought I was in control and could handle this gift from the moon goddess, but this was far from what I expected and what I could control. My heart was pounding frantically in my chest. It was easier to stay beside her when
MILDRED He spun quickly and glared at me when my hand touched him. It startled me a little, and I took a few steps back, not wanting to get on his wrong side. This man was tall and huge—larger than any average man I have ever seen, so it was safe to be a little scared of him, not to mention
I wish I could tell her that I was going to hunt for meat for her. I could not provide her with a proper meal except for the beasts I hunt down. She does not deserve me; she does not deserve to be with me and suffer with me. The moon goddess should be smarter than this. I walked away, but she was
MORPHEUS "Put me down! Put me down right now!" the woman yelled, squirming in my hold, and trying to get down, but I gripped her. I do not know why she chose to be stubborn with me. She claims that I should put her down, even though a wild animal nearly tore her apart. Was she lookin
MILDRED I sat in a corner, nipping at the roasted meat the grumpy, beastly man gave me and staring at him with the boy that was around my age or younger. I do not know why that man was grumpy and cold. Why did he have to leave himself to look so shabby? I hated him already for treating me lik

"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
