All I wanted to do was peel that woman’s face off and hand it to her.“When will it wear off?” I asked through seething teeth.He shrugged and as a harsh breeze pulled in he shivered. So weak.How are humans not extinct yet? They hurt so easily, one nick and they’ll die of an affection, eat a poison
“Hazel,” Angus called. The smile was still there but a little more gloomy than before and he dropped his arms to his sides and let them just hang there while his jacket fell open.“I’m sorry,” he said aloud. “Everyone has a part to play and I had to play mine,” I smiled and stepped closer but he b
The Guard was carrying Angus’s body over his shoulder- showing no mercy or remorse. It was a job, and he did it and something tells me he was happy about it. Werewolves and humans don't co-exist. We don't help each other or like each other- we don't even tolerate each other. At least that was the ru
I was sick of fighting and holding onto grudges. They got heavy and I had enough to carry so I decided to drop it and I leapt from the ground and circled my arms around this neck.Gabe caught me and tightly wound his arms around my back while his face rested in the crock of my neck.We stood like that for a while, embracing and relishing in a comfort that I missed even if it hadn’t been gone for that long. Gabe was always there, ready to protect me or make a joke that would bring a smile to my face. He was the one who reminded me of what my laugh sounded like- a sound I would occasionally forget amid the chaos that had become our lives. I pulled back and patted his arm before I released him. “I have to talk to find Darian. Will you be okay?” Gabe nodded with a smile that brought life back to his eyes. Those eyes should always have life in them, in turn, he would bring life to everyone else. I was heading back to the palace when he called behind me. “What did Zade whisper?” I th
My skin was so warm I could fry an egg on my chest and Darian was fisting my shirt and pulling me in as close as physically possible. A burst of desire exploded inside me and all I knew at that moment was that I wanted him. I needed him.But all he did was tease my skin with his hand whenever my shi
I lay down and took a breath when the memories flashed before me like I was reliving them. “If you want me to stop at any given point you say stop and I will drop everything. You’re not stuck and I will not do anything that you’re not comfortable with. Are we clear?” I nodded in response.He grabb
To say that Darian and I had a wonderful night would be an understatement. My body was exhausted in the most beautiful way- a way that I hadn’t ever experienced before, my legs felt like led falling into the mattress and my head rested on Darian’s wet chest. My breasts were red from being squeezed,
“I want the whole fucking world to see you wear it. How do you feel about a billboard?” His hands rested on my waist.These butterflies were eating me up.“First food,” I said and stepped up on my toes.Our lips met and his hand came around the back of my head, his fingers entwined in my hair and he
The boys had full heads of hair, it was a pain in the ass to cut it all the time because it fell in their eyes, but it grew like weed on their heads- Kaitlyn’s didn’t, but she had the most beautiful ash-blonde color with caramel highlights that sparkled under the sun. The flowers around us lit up t
3 Years Later. Hazel's povIt was the triplet's third birthday and everyone had gathered in the royal garden. Gabe carried Kane like a purse and spun him around, the two were inseparable. Kaitlyn was Kiera’s new doll, she dressed her and did her hair- not that she had a lot of it but it was growing
We were sitting in the hospital room. Gabe came a few hours ago and Nora pulled a chair up to the bed and hadn’t moved for the past three hours. We were waiting for Hazel to wake up, she was healing quickly and had been given blood all night, she should be good as new before nightfall. I kept going
Zade’s lips pulled in a grin and he rolled up the sleeve of his shirt.“You all might want to look away for this,” he said humbly and reached out his arm. The inked snake started moving, the tail slithered under his skin and the head slowly rose with its split tongue flickering as it fell on the be
Darian’ POVWhy the fuck was her heart slowing down? I listened to every beat and felt myself sinking the more time passed before each one. “Baby, stay with me,” her breaths were so fucking shallow and the doctors and healers were cutting her open to get the baby out but the cord was tangled around
I turned my head and looked at the babies in their bassinet.“Welcome to the world, my angels. Mama’s right here. I’ve got you,” I and turned my head. The ceiling wobbled in my hazy vision.“Come on my love, we’ve got this,” I said and stroked my hand over my belly. Tears streaked down my cheeks and
Two Months Later. “FUCK! Get them the fuck out of me!” I punctured Darian’s skin with my nails when I lifted my upper body off the bed and screamed at the doctor who sat between my legs. She was focused on the first baby’s head crowning. First. And then there were two more. The strikes of pain tha
A gasp peeled from me as I bent over in pain. I had been standing for too long. Darian grabbed my arm and told everyone to continue the preparations, with the housekeepers and maids running around with laters and boxes with trinkets and decorations. He led me up the stairs and got me into bed. “Yo
1 Month Later. “Holy shit! You’re kidding me, did that really happen?” Mathilda screeched and covered her mouth.“Fuck, Hazel,” Gabe winced and stepped back when he heard the news. A trial was held today, where a male member of the Lycan pack had been charged with rape- which meant today when he wa
