But for now, for this fantasy, I wanted to fuck her so hard all she could do was hold on and enjoy the ride. I had the strength to keep her pinned for a good long while, and I had the stamina to match. I’d have her coming on my dick until she couldn’t even remember her own name. She’d know mine
The morning of the second elimination ceremony, I awoke with a big pit growing in my stomach. I still hadn’t been able to speak to Julian about his potentially saving me today. I had talked more with Joyce, but he remained apathetic about the whole thing. Nicholas was avoiding me. Granted, I was
I wondered where he had been these past few days. I hoped he was okay. I wished more than anything that I could ask him what was going on. Did his absence have to do with the investigation? Or was he truly just being reckless? Thoughts and worries swirling in my head, I walked over to Elva for a
I continued to hold Susie’s hand as we were led into the staged area for the ceremony. The 14 of us that were left were lined up into three rows. Camera crews were setting up in front of us. On the other side, three small stages were arranged side by side, each with their own set of stairs. A thro
After Nicholas and Julian said my name, many things happened all at once. My breath was so shaky I felt lightheaded. The King and Queen both jumped to their feet in outrage. Many of the remaining girls descended from their standing places to complain aggressively to the producers and Nathan an
“I can tell by the look on your face that you’ve been thinking about me,” Terry said. My stomach twisted. The champagne I had enjoyed only a moment ago soured in my mouth. Susie shrunk, half-hiding behind me. Terry didn’t even look at her, his entire attention was focused on me. I didn’t
I couldn’t give up. There had to be a way out of this. I glanced around, desperate, but no one was looking at me anymore. Even if they did see me, they wouldn’t notice Terry pressing himself against me from the way he was so closely angled to my back. I felt hopeless, powerless. I missed my wolf
On the dance floor, Nicholas placed his hand on my hip. I placed mine of his shoulder. The orchestra began to play, and Nicholas led me forward in a dance. His jaw was clenched and he wasn’t looking at me. Even compared to our previous dances, his movements now were stiff and unnatural. He w
Instead, the Queen pulled me into a hug. It was uncomfortable and brief, but a hug none the less. From the Queen, this was a tremendous breach of decorum, and I froze, unsure how to react. Even Nathan, standing dutifully as his King’s side seemed shocked.“I have misjudged you dearly,” the Queen sai
I wasn’t sure what to expect when our car delivered us from the train station to the palace, but even in my wildest dreams, I wouldn’t have guessed what actually awaited us.Cheering crowds lined the outer walls of the palace. Balloons and streamers of various colors were abundant. A stage had been
At once, my heart leapt up into my throat, while simultaneously crashing down into my stomach.I pulled away from Nicholas enough to push myself up onto my hands and stare down at him.The thought of breaking the engagement had never crossed my mind! Nicholas proposing had been one of the best momen
In a war between the wolves and the bears, only the lost bear princess will be able to stop this fighting. Else, the bears will continue to fight themselves to exhaustion or to death.“It’s up to you,” Nicholas said. “I believe in you. You can do this.”I closed my eyes. Miracle was still exhausted,
Slowly, my grief subsided for now, enough for me to look up at Nicholas and feel the relief of being reunited with my fiancé.My… mate.“I love you,” Nicholas said. “I’m sorry it took so long for me to reach you.”“How are you even here? It’s impossible for you to have found me this quickly?”Nichol
Joyce, despite his best efforts, was not a fighter. He was not bred for war and battle like Hawke was, so even calling on the power of his Alpha wolf, Hawk tossed Joyce aside like he was a sack of potatoes.However, Joyce did show amazing tenacity, and stood back up time and time again. Roaring, he
Nicholas was here. I didn’t know how. I didn’t know why. But he was here, and that gave me the strength I needed to act.I ripped my arm away from Joyce’s hold and rushed into the room where Hawk was choking my sister on the ground. Using all of my strength, I plowed into Hawk.My surprise more than
We slipped into the hallway easily enough. The lights were off, so we stuck to the shadows. We didn’t go far when we started to hear raised voices.“I want to know if Piper was telling the truth.” It was Jane.“You cannot mean to trust her more than me,” that was Hawk. His cold voice sent shivers ru
A mating bond…?Yes. Even though Nicholas and I had never talked about the love between us, I had still felt it grow over these months together. Nicholas had never made a bonding bite on my neck, yet inside of me, that bond had cultivated. Our hearts were bound together, mating bite or now.There wa
