"Elder?" I repeated, snapping my gaze towards Ian. "Did I hear that right?"What were the chances that I managed to save a kitsune elder? Didn’t that mean that the kitsunes were now deeply indebted to me?"Could we please discuss this later?" Antoine asked, looking over his shoulder. "We don’t know
I lay in a large bed with a fluffy white cover and large pillows stacked around it. The room that I was currently occupying was huge and almost the same size as the bottom floor of my own house. How all this managed to fit inside a debilitated looking cabin was beyond me, but I was quickly learning
"Seriously?"I turned my gaze to Ashton as he spoke. From the hint of glee in his voice, I knew that he couldn’t possibly be thinking of anything good."Within reason." Ian added, catching onto Ashton’s train of thought."Bring it in, idiot." I sighed, drawing Ashton’s attention to me. "We can think
"Ashton… fuck… ASHTON!"My body trembled and my core pulsated as a powerful orgasm overtook me from Ashton’s tongue dancing along my clit. "FUCK!" I growled, clutching the sheets beneath me as wave after wave of pleasure coursed through me. "THAT’S IT!"Never in my life had a man made me feel so da
I woke the next morning to the sound of voices echoing down the hall outside my door. Ashton, who was still in bed beside me, remained fast asleep. Sighing, I grabbed his shoulder and began to shake him gently. A low groan escaped his lips before his arms snaked around my waist and pulled me closer
"Andrew," I breathed, attempting to pull my hand free of Ashton’s. "What are you doing here?""I came to check on your siblings since you went out of town again." Andrew said slowly, his gaze shifting to mine and Ashton’s entwined hands.I could feel guilt flooding through me as his face fell and hi
I turned and looked at Ashton, who was still hanging around. He raised his brow as his gaze met mine, and a slow smile began to creep across his lips."What?" I asked, feeling a thrill rush through me from the sight. "Why are you looking at me like that?""More like, why were you looking at me like
The twins had already gone to bed by the time Ashton and I made our way downstairs. Leah, who was the only one awake, was already engrossed in a game on the PC."It appears that I have you all to myself."Ashton smirked, taking in the scene.I opened my mouth to respond, but stopped when my stomach r
Ouch…"Anyway," Chloe continued, looking into the distance once again. "I’ve been observing you all morning and you’ve been acting strangely. If you don’t get it together, they’re going to grow suspicious. ""I..." I began, but stopped as Chloe got up and wiped dirt from her pants."That was all I w
[Asher’s POV]A gasp escaped me as my eyes flew open. What was… lifting a hand, I touched my forehead to find it covered in sweat. Sitting up, I watched as a black comforter fell down my body, revealing perfectly smooth skin."My scars..." I murmured as my memories of everything that happened up to
[Asher’s POV]"Asher!"Antoine’s voice drifted through the roar of the power I was slowly drawing in as Selene struggled to break free. From the sound of his tone, I knew that he already had an idea of what I was about to do and wanted to stop me."Stay back!" I called, turning to meet his terrified
[Asher’s POV]Jumping up, I kept Leah close to me as I drew on my power once again. The duo would pay dearly for what they had done. And then, once I was done with them, I would go and join Leah."Asher!" Antoine called as footsteps began to make their way towards me. "You need to calm down.""Calm
[Leah’s POV]"Stop it!" I shrieked, shoving Selene aside. "You’re hurting him!"Behind me, I could hear the yells of my comrades, but I wasn’t about to stop now. Sucking in a breath, I lifted my fingers and began to wipe the blood from Asher’s injuries."Why did you let her do this?" I murmured, fee
[Leah’s POV]I kept my gaze fixed on Asher as I continued to touch Ian. Despite the indifference that remained in his features, I could see the jealousy burning in his eyes. Good. This meant that even when the darkness had taken over, he still felt the bond between us. That meant there was a chance
[Leah’s POV]"Mallard has been around for a very long time." Craig began, growing serious. "I know that sounds impossible, but some claim he may even be immortal."Immortal…Shivering, I tried to picture being unable to die. After losing those closest to me, I found it hard to imagine carrying on. I
[Leah’s POV]"You’re Asher." I insisted. There was no way that I could mistake the sensations I was feeling from where we touched."Who?" The man asked in confusion."Leah," Ian murmured, giving my body a slight tug. "That isn’t Asher."Frowning, I continued to take in the man. The eyes that met min
[Leah’s POV]I held my breath as Craig led us into a dark hallway with a long stairwell leading down beneath the earth. Once we reached the bottom, the sound of laughter drifted towards us, filling the deafening silence that was becoming unbearable."In here." Craig announced, beginning to knock an
