The Lost Royal Forty Two
Haden stood, lifting me with him, without even breaking the kiss. He carried me through to Saxon's bedroom, only lifting his mouth from mine as he lowered me onto the bed. He pulled away, pulling his shirt off over his head, revealing his incredible body. As he leaned over me again, I couldn't resist running my hands over it, tracing the outlines of his abs with my fingertips, until they reached the top of his pants. He grinned, that look of mischief in his eyes again, and waited, watching my face as I slowly undid his belt, then his pants, and pushed them down, revealing more of him. I felt my face flush, as the heat, and the need, began to build inside me, and he only smiled wider. Slipping his pants the rest of the way off, he then reached for mine, removing them quickly and lifting my legs over his shoulders. I started to protest, knowing I wanted - needed him inside me, but it was cut short as he pressed his head down between my legs, giving me a long, slow, tender lick that s
The Lost Royal Forty Three
It was hours later when I woke, finding myself still naked in Saxon's bed, only with Saxon himself curled tightly around me, and Haden nowhere to be seen. I yawned, stretching out, and Saxon grunted in response, pulling me tighter against him. I laughed softly and tried to free myself from his arms, but he only held tighter, until I complained that I needed to use the bathroom. He reluctantly let me up, grumbling incoherently in a state of partial sleep, and I headed straight for his ensuite, shutting the door behind me. I used it, and took a moment to notice my reflection as I washed my hands, then froze. My hair. My roots had begun to grow in, I realised, and there was no mistaking the obvious flame-red colour of them. The dull brown that Mama had used to hide the true colour for as long as I could remember, now only seemed to make the red stand out even more. I suddenly felt sick. I wouldn't even be able to hide it until the Luna ceremony. One glance would be all it would take
The Lost Royal Forty Four
His kiss was intoxicatingly passionate, as well as fiercely possessive, sending an instant rush of heat through me. I didn't want it to end, and it seemed he didn't either, only reluctantly raising his head when Haden cleared his throat behind him. Saxon kept his face close to mine, our lips almost touching as he whispered, "I'm going to have you all to myself, soon enough, and I'm going to make you understand exactly how much you mean to me." My cheeks flushed, and his lips twitched in amused satisfaction, before he suddenly turned towards the door, planting a quick kiss on Haden's lips as he brushed past him, then headed for his wardrobe to get dressed. Haden paused to give me a long look, that trailed from my head to my toes and back again, with a small smile. "Breakfast?" he suggested, "We can order it up, if you like. No need to get dressed." I raised an eyebrow, and he grinned playfully at me, "Or I can wait, while you shower," he said, then blinked in surprise when I shook
The Lost Royal Forty Five
I must have dozed off without realising, as comfortable as I was, snuggled into Haden's chest. Opening my eyes as I felt him gently shaking me awake, I yawned sleepily, stretching myself out, then froze as I saw the look on Haden's face. "What's wrong?" I asked, immediately feeling a deep sense of dread, as I studied his pale, uncertain looking expression. "Another attack," he said quietly, as he lifted me off his lap and got to his feet himself. "You should dress quickly, we need to go and help. This one.." he paused, taking a deep breath as his voice began to tremble, "It was.. worse than the last. A lot worse."I stared at him in horror, feeling frozen in place for a moment. "Now," he insisted, "Please, we should hurry," and the urgency in his words seemed to snap me out of it, sending me rushing over to the wardrobe. We dressed hurriedly, and I began heading towards the doors, but Haden paused, seeming hesitant, then more decisive, as he walked over to a large, heavy looking c
The Lost Royal Forty Six
Immediately, hands and faces rose, as many volunteered themselves. Saxon looked around at each of them, with a look of approval, before turning to Haden, his eyes briefly going blank, apparently communicating something he didn't want all to hear.As his eyes cleared again, Haden gave him a short nod and took my hand, tugging on it gently, to lead me away from the crowd. "Wait!" I said, feeling a pit of worry forming inside me, and pulled my hand away, turning back to Saxon. They both gave me frustrated looks, but they quickly faded as I wrapped my arms around Saxon's waist tightly. "Be careful, please," I whispered, and he rested his head on mine for a moment, wrapping his arms around me in return."Of course, love," he said gently, with such a beautiful warmth in his tone, and placed a soft kiss on my forehead before releasing me. "Don't worry, I'll keep him safe," Trin said with a playful wink, as Haden took my hand again, trying to lead me away once more.I gave Trin a warm smile
The Lost Royal Forty Seven
Haden looked frozen in place for a moment, the expression on his face more troubled than ever. "Do you think..?" I began, and he shook his head, sighing deeply. "I don't know," he said heavily, his voice sounding as troubled as he looked. "We need more information, before we begin making assumptions that could only make things worse."I nodded understanding, "Aerin?" I suggested gently, "She might have heard.." Haden nodded and began moving before I could even finish the words, looking over the list from Nera as he walked, his other hand clasping mine tightly. I could feel the tension in his usually calm grip, and it was deeply unsettling. "Your Mother used herbs, didn't she? Would you recognise any of these?" he asked, handing me the list as he led me back towards the doors at a brisk pace. I looked it over quickly, recognising many of the names, though some I noticed were regional alternatives to those I'd grown up using. "Most of them," I said with some degree of uncertainly, "T
The Lost Royal Forty Eight
Haden watched him go, looking deep in thought for a long moment, then took my hand, leading me out of the small cottage, and back towards the packhouse. We walked in silence, though it didn't take words to feel just how unsettled Haden was by the situation. And it was understandable. His generation of the pack had only known peace their entire lives, aside from occasional rogue attacks, and now..Well, now, it was anything but peaceful. The rumours of the truth behind the war between Nightfall and Silver Waters had already had my mates on edge, but no one could have predicted this. As we neared the pack house, I noticed it was very quiet. Too quiet, in an eerie sort of way. Haden felt it too, I could tell, as he exchanged an uncertain glance with me, then quickened his pace. Most of the pack would be helping either with Saxon's pursuit, with patrolling and defense, or at the hospital, but even so, people needed to eat, sleep, and take care of other basic tasks within the building..
The Lost Royal Forty Nine
We continued through the darkness in silence, until we reached the next junction, and Haden hesitated, turning towards me. Just like before, a faint floral scent wafted from one of the passages, and just like before, Haden seemed oblivious to it. I frowned, but nodded towards the scented one, picking out another small, crushed stem from the corner of a beam this time. Haden seemed just as confused as before, yet with no other guidance, we continued to follow the way they led us, and I desperately hoped it was Aerin, or someone else we trusted, who was leaving them behind. The silence stretched out, as the words we'd heard played over and over in my head, almost making me miss one of the scents. At this one, there was no junction of passages, but a gap in the wall to our left, that only led straight up and down. I turned back as I noticed the scent, staring at the dark opening with a growing sense of apprehension. Haden turned when I stopped, moving beside me, seeming every bit as
