Having Devin say it would mean he was hurt by what Yuri did to him and wanted to pay him back by all means. It would be excusable. Peter looked at me after hearing what Devin said and shook his head. "We can't pay evil back with evil," he started, and his peers agreed. "We remained silent and did
~Leo~ The meeting with the Stepnaovs went pretty well. Gezel knowing and trusting them was a good sign, but we could not be relaxed and let them in on our plans. We had to be extra careful because we would only get one shot at this. Yuri was a slippery bastard, and we could not afford to let him sl
I pleaded with them, and Marcel got a bit short. "What else do you want us to do, Leo? We have been cautious. We even let you run this thing for a while in the East. Now that we have some action, you are doubting our break?" He asked, and I shook my head. "I do not doubt our break. And for the rec
Morning came, and it was time for us to leave for the East. I needed to gather my people and lead them to the West. I wasn't happy that Gezel would fight with us, and I wished I could talk her out of it. Still, I hadn't gotten the chance, nor had I been able to tell Amelia about her mother's decisio
~Leo~ We arrived at Mountain without issues. I wasn't fooled by the false peace, but I knew it meant Yuri was either out of the East or had no influence in the region. Maybe he was busy with other things; I was grateful. Seeing a few people above ground, I realised how important dealing with this
I left the room and headed toward's Gezel's room. I did not hesitate to knock on her door, and she opened it after the first knock. She did not even ask who it was. She just opened the door. "Leo," she said, a bit surprised. "Who were you expecting?" I asked her, and she stepped aside for me to en
"Don't go. Please Gezel. I know the King has given his consent but please. I would prefer that you return to the North with Amelia when the time comes. I would prefer you are with her." I said and bowed my head. "Our victory isn't guaranteed. Should anything happen, she would at least have you," I
"We will hunt down the son of a bitch that has plagued our world for so long and end his shadow reign. We will clip his wings and destroy his ego. We will pay him for his crimes against us and our peers," I said, and they hailed. "I want to thank you all for your contributions to the cause, and the
Dear Readers and Beloved Co-Writers, I am thrilled to share some exciting news with all of you. Liam and Josephine are embarking on their own unique adventure, and their story is becoming so enthralling that it deserves its own book. Considering the depth and breadth of this tale, I've received wi
"I... I’m clueless," I stammered as he trailed kisses along my neck, each touch igniting a wild sensation within me. "Same here," he managed between breaths, his hand gradually tracing up my thigh. His confession reassured me, and at that moment, I embraced the idea of exploration and discovery wit
"I was scared, partly because of Sophia's presence. She seemed perfect, so normal, and I…" I stumbled over my words, the memory stoking an odd ache within me. The pain from that day was stubborn, refusing to fade. "I felt like I couldn't measure up, Li. But my sister insisted that I should give it
"Since we can't venture out alone, I convinced Mrs. Mirabel to join us," he explained, and a surge of excitement led me to embrace him tightly. His consideration touched me deeply. I had yearned to return to the park ever since that day. Even though the stream wasn't quite the same as the lake, it
~Josephine~ A rush of excitement coursed through me, and a smile tugged at Liam's lips as he stood by the doorway. Since there was nothing to grab in my room, I slipped on my slippers and made my way outside. "Did your father get in touch?" Liam inquired as we descended the staircase, and I nodded
"I have to hope that we are fated to be together or that we possess the strength to do what his parents did: defy expectations and reject what fate has in store for us," I mused aloud, causing Charlotte's expression to take on a tinge of concern."Let us not worry about things that are yet to come a
"Because you are my friend, and he is my cousin, and I know of Sophia, so I want to know why you will allow yourself to get carried away," she responded, her tone genuinely concerned. I offered her a smile, touched by her sincerity."There's nothing between him and Sophia," I reassured, to which she
~Josephine~The kappas coming from Lucland didn't reach Grizlo Hospital until late, subjecting us all to a lengthy and tense wait. When they finally did arrive, Charlotte couldn't contain her joy. Meanwhile, I observed Justin issuing them instructions, my only thought being an earnest desire to depa
Seeing that the Royal family is somehow involved in this mess, I request that the council get involved and assist me in solving this matter," He said, and people began to murmur. "How was the Royal family implicated? Isn't this your jurisdiction, alpha Zakharov?" Pamela asked, and he nodded, then m
