Ambrose POV Analyn was kissing me. She was caressing my chest and planting feather-light kisses on my throat. I stayed still, enjoying the moment. I thought about telling her to stop because I didn't deserve her kindness at the moment, but as soon as our eyes met, my heart melted. She put her hands on my shoulders and pressed her mouth to mine. She kissed me softly. It was very sweet and slow, shy and tentative. I fought the urge to take over. She gave me a push, prodding me onto my back before getting on top of me. Her sex rubbed against my cock, making it hard. "Analyn, I don't think we should..." my words couldn't escape my lips as I saw her pull her dress over her head and toss it on the ground, showing me her pert, beautiful breasts tipped with perfect pink nipples. I drank in the sight of her. She was too damn beautiful. "What are you doing?" I asked. [What do you think she is doing, knucklehead,] my wolf mocked me. I don't think
Analyn POV"What the hell? How do I change back?" I screamed. The wings on my back started flapping around and lifted me two feet off the ground."Whoa...look at those wings. You are beautiful," Ambrose stared at me with awe.But I wasn't in the mood to feel flattered. "Stop staring at me and do something!""I don't know what you want me to do here. This is a natural thing. You saw how Charlotte shifted." Ambrose shrugged. "But I'm not a werewolf.""But you are a fae. And we both know your human form is nothing but an illusion." Ambrose smirked.I knew, but I pretended that I was only a human. Because being human was not complicated. And I wanted to believe I was normal. "It's not that I mind looking like this," I said as I looked at my reflection in the water. I had a pink glow radiating from my skin. I always thought of myself as somewhat attractive, if not beautiful, but when I looked at the fae me, I shame
Ambrose POVI went to see Theo. He was still bedridden. I knew I wasn't in my right mind when I attacked him, but it still hurt to see him like this."Theodore, I am so sorry about this," I apologized right away."You really fucked me up, bro." Theo laughed. He sat up halfway. "Look, I know it wasn't you, so I am not angry. I am angrier at myself for not being able to defend myself better. I feel like a weak little bitch."Bitterness dripped from his voice, so I knew his pride was hurt."You couldn't have done anything against me. I was in my full Lycan form, and you know what happens when I'm in that state," I said.'Still, we all had enough preparation to deal with that version of you. But it was as if you were way stronger that night." Theo frowned.[The Lycan was being controlled,] my wolf said.[Controlled by who?] I asked him.[By your evil desires.]I ignored my wolf and turned my focus back to Theo. "Your
Analyn POV I heard what Ambrose was thinking when he held our daughter. They were cruel, terrifying thoughts. He wanted to hurt her or, worse, kill her. But I hung in there. I knew he would snap out of it eventually because I could hear his inner battle between him and whatever it was that spoke to him. I could feel the pain inside him when he thought about killing his daughter. That's when I realized he was not all evil, and I could bring him back. I watched him hold her and then put her down. He had a pained expression on his face as if he was ashamed of himself. He ran off as soon as he saw me. I guess he couldn't face me after thinking those thoughts about our children. The darkness inside him was trying to manipulate him, and it was slowly winning him over. I had to do something before that happened, I couldn't let it win no matter what. "Do not trust Ambrose with the kids alone again, Sylvia. He's not ready for that yet," I told Sylvia l
Ambrose POV I reached for Ana in the morning, but she wasn't next to me. I squinted my eyes at the clock. It was way too early for her to wake up and leave the bed. Usually, the kids didn't wake up until later either. I went to find Sylvia and found her standing in the Kids' room. "Hey Ambrose, are you alright? Can I help you with something?" she asked when I barged in. "Where is Ana?" I asked. For some reason, I felt uneasy. Sylvia looked like she was taken aback by my question. Did I ask the wrong question? Her reaction made me even more anxious. "She's out," Sylvia said. I looked at her suspiciously. Out? What does that suppose to mean? "Out where?" "She is out with her friend," Sylvia said. "What friend?" I barked. I was getting impatient. What is with all these vague answers? Are we playing twenty questions? "Shirley, I think that was her name," Sylvia said. Oh...Shirley is Ana's best friend
Theodore POVI ran off to the forest to blow off some steam. The side of my body still hurt. And my face...Well, it was destroyed.No, I'm not someone who obsessed over their own looks but being scarred like this was a cherry on top after being rejected by my mate.Am I really so unlovable that she didn't even hesitate for one second? She didn't even give me a fighting chance.Yes, I wallowed in self-pity all night, so I left the house and spent the night in the woods.I also wanted to keep an eye out for the drider. I hadn't forgotten about my duties. I still had a territory to protect.I was surprised when I saw Ana. I didn't expect to see her walking around alone in the woods. I proceeded to call her name but stopped. She was acting sneaky, so clearly, she didn't want anyone to know that she was here. If I say something, it will scare her off.So I stayed hidden and watched her in secret.I walked stealthily and foll
Analyn POVI stared at the girl in front of me."Are you lost?" she asked again."I'm looking for someone," I told her.The girl squinted at me. "I've never seen you around here before, and I know all the faeries that live here. Where did you come from?"She knew all the faeries? How's that even possible? "That's crazy. You can't possibly know everyone here. How small is this world?""We are all connected. Why are you acting like you don't know how things work?" the girl said irritably. "I'm Nora, by the way.""My name is Analyn. How do you know I'm a fae? Is it because we are also connected?" I looked at her curiously."Because you look like one," Nora said. She looked even more confused than I. "Do you not know what you look like? Here," she stepped back and did something with her hands, so a mirror appeared in front of me.I let out a nervous laugh as I realized I was back in my fae body. It was as if coming through t
Analyn POV "What? Cat got your tongue?" Rania laughed again. "I can't believe it. You killed your own husband. Didn't you love him?" I managed to say. "Oh, don't look so disgusted. I didn't even love that bastard. I only made him fall in love with me because I wanted to take him away from your goody two shoes mother," Rania declared. "How could you do that to her! I thought she was your best friend," I exclaimed. "Yes, she was, but she was a fool. She loved me even though I was evil. If that's not stupidity, I don't know what is. So when I saw her pining over that wolf, I thought it would be delightful to steal him away from her, and I was right. Besides, it didn't hurt that the beast was amazing in bed." Rania smirked. Ugh! This lady is atrocious, I thought to myself. I didn't want to discuss this further as I had more pressing matters to deal with, like saving Ambrose from this evil witch. Maybe I will let him deal with her later. He
