"You can't push her away forever. If you keep going, at some point it will be too late, and you won't be able to repair the damage done between the two of you." Her mouth was full as she spoke, and I curled my lip in disgust at her lack of manners. She had been out for the past several years playing
Natalie's P.O.V. Killian was shocked that night when he got back to the room and found me curled up in the armchair by the balcony. His eyebrows were raised as he examined the throw blanket I had wrapped around me and the pillow I had taken from the bed. "Natalie," He started after I stared at him
"No. My people do not fear me. They respect me. It is the others who fear me, the ones who live outside of my walls. They remain under my rule, but know nothing of loyalty or the lengths my people go to for them." He sounded so sure, that I wanted to shrink away until I was absorbed by the cushion b
Killian's P.O.V. Natalie looks terrified and confused at the same time. I hated that she flinched away from me, but the way she was standing up for herself was admirable. There were only a few who had ever stood up to me, and all of them were the women in my family. My mother, my sister, and my chi
"Do not tease me, mate. I did not bring you here to die for me, but I did bring you here to be mine. If you want to be mad at me for my actions and treatment during the day, that's fine. We will fight about it all you want." I bent down and hovered my mouth over hers. The tip of her tongue gently to
Natalie's P.O.V. The night was awful. I didn't get a wink of sleep, and I was positive that Killian didn't either. Although with him sleeping in the sitting room, I moved from the uncomfortable armchair to the empty bed so I wouldn't have to sit up all night. It made me smile when he came back in
Killian glanced at me briefly, and I could see that he was feeling torn. If I had to guess, he was enjoying our civil time together as much as I was. "Thank you for breakfast, Killian," I said, and he seemed to light up when I used his name again. The brief moment of happiness vanished as soon as h
Natalie's P.O.V. All of the work the masseuse had put in was pointless as I felt myself tense back up. I cleared my throat, resisting the urge to pull the slices of cucumber from my eyes and look over at her. "Not very much," I answered, embarrassed to admit that he hadn't told me anything about t

That was fine by me.I didn't want her anywhere near him either.I let out a low chuckle, feeling proud of the spot I had selected for this, as the sound echoed off the rock wall on one side and bounced between the trees on the other.Xander's eyes widened, and he began to pull harder. I had left th
Damien's P.O.V. - Seven months laterIt was almost too easy.He was nervous, his head turning back and forth as he scanned the area, but he wouldn't see me. Not until I wanted him to, at least.He knew I was out here, and if he were smart, he would know what was coming.I didn't have much time as Ch
I knew he had a lot of work to do after the war, and the fact that he took time out of his schedule to come here today meant the world to me. "There is nowhere else that I should be today." He smiled, and I nodded as I glanced back at Natalie. She was looking at her mate with all the love in the wo
Charlie's P.O.V. I hadn't been expecting it to happen so soon. I wanted it to, but Elder Artis and Damien managed to have the ceremony prepared in three weeks, just in time for the full moon. My hands shook as I stood in Eden's den. The short white dress I wore had been borrowed from Olli and mad
Eden went inside as Damien and Olli fawned over the new addition to their sleuth, and I tensed as I noticed Elder Artis approaching. I hadn't seen her with the others who had shown up to welcome us, and I wondered if we were about to have a repeat of my first visit here.Damien didn't look up as his
Charlie's P.O.V.Even though I was walking into the den of angry bears, who had wanted nothing to do with me previously, the scent of Damien's sleuth was comforting. It wasn't my home, but he was, and I loved his scent.I wasn't sure what I had been expecting, but to see everyone outside with Eden W
All of the men were present and solemn. "What happened?" I hesitated, letting out a deep breath when Marlene pushed through the swinging kitchen door with a tray of drinks, smiling at me warmly like everything was right in the world. Everyone looked healthy but unhappy as she passed out the mugs o
