Artemisia Before my panic can rise drastically, I calm myself down, as his scent must have been enough for me to spot him as my second chance mate. And even if his scent is mouthwatering, it isn’t screaming mate. “Is that a quirk of yours?” I look at him confused, finding him smiling. The hell?!
Artemisia “They were kissing!” Zeno shouts, making me gasp. “Liar!” Giorgio groans, passing a hand over his face. “This is enough! Zeno, I’ll be thinking about an appropriate punishment for you, and you will apologize to Alpha Blackwood appropriately.” After what had happened at the lake, and th
Giorgio The sun's rays make me open my eyes with a groan, and I turn around, laying my arm around my wife’s waist, and pulling her close. She giggles, turning around to kiss me, and I smile. “How are you feeling?” “Strange, but good strange.” I chuckle, hugging her tighter. “I’m glad.” “Are you
Artemisia “Have you lost your mind?” I gasp, clenching my cup of coffee as Ramona cracks up. “You are such a pervert.” She recovers from her fit of laughter, wiggling her finger at me. “Come on. He sounds like an awesome guy. I know that your family is scared about him coming to get you, but maybe
“I- You- I have patients here.” He watches me dumbfounded as if he wasn’t getting what I wanted to say. “I can’t leave them here on their own. I’m their doctor and they trust me.” I gulp again, trying to get rid of the lump forming in my throat. Goddess, why me?! His eyes narrow at me as I push
Artemisia I can’t remember a moment in my life when I felt more uncomfortable. Well, except for that rejection part. Forget that. But it is flipping awkward. As I climb the stairs to my room with my new companion, he takes his time to look at everything. And even if his stoic face keeps frownin
Artemisia “Relax, princess.” He says mockingly as he starts the engine and drives off after the others. “I won’t surely take your innocence in an Escalate.” “Ha!” I push out, turning my head to look out of the window. “Would be too late for that anyway.” As I’m expecting him to blow off, I’m quit
Artemisia “So, you are a doctor?” Matt’s eyes sparkle as he questions me. “Erm… yes,” I say shyly, scooping my potatoes from one side of the plate to the other. My eyes keep snapping over to Fynn, who is eating all by himself at a table in a corner. His unpleased frown about his momentary situat
Emma “Good morning, my—” Hendrick is about to greet us happily as he gets body-checked and shoved out of the way. Kai appears in the room, his hair tousled and his shirt sticking to his chiseled body as he must be covered in sweat. “What is happening here?” ‘Oh, hello,’ my wolf purrs, the growl r
Emma The next morning, I get woken up by a purr vibrating through my mind. Blinking against the sunbeams intruding into our bedroom, I groan, wrapping myself into my blanket. Kai has long left for his training, and I blow into my cheek as I hate waking up in an empty bed. Especially after such a
Emma “Let me down,” I laugh, not being able to breathe as he carries me through our quarters. “Kai!” He chuckles, throwing me off his shoulder to make me fall on the bed. I crack up as I bounce on the cosy material, and he gets on the bed as well, pulling me beneath him. “Your wish is my command,
Emma As usual, Uncle Finnegan is the only one who is grinning. A smug face among a preoccupied and angry crowd. Kai and I, as the future leaders of the pack, had been called into a meeting with the higher-ranked members of the pack by the Alpha. I feel all giddy at the thought of it, even if it
Ace I feel like my entire body was set on fire and is now lying in a jelly-like extinguishing substance. Groaning, I try to move, but to no avail. My body is heavy, held by anchors drilled into the ground. As all I can see is darkness, I close my eyes again, taking a deep breath. My subconsciou
I straighten up, nodding repeatedly. “Oh, I’d love to.” “Awesome, let me fetch the carafe I have put on ice,” he says happily. He is just about to get back into the house as an angered voice booms from the other side of the street. “Hey!” We jump on our spot as Kai slams his car’s door and storms
Emma - Five Years Ago “They are searching the forest once again,” Artemisia tells me while pulling the curtains of my bedroom open. “They aren’t giving up. They will certainly find him.” I wipe a tear off my already sticky face, my eyes concentrating on the dust twirling through the air. “I don’t
Emma“Where is my son?” Artemisa says, determined, the guards bearing their necks as she approaches the entrance of the hall with the cells. “I want to see my son.” It is funny to see how those huge guards cower as they show the way to Artemisia to reach her son’s cell. As it was pretty difficult
Emma“How are you feeling?” I sit still, my hands folded in my lap. It is still unclear how she will react when waking up and if she is really back to being herself. And only the Goddess knows how hard it was to make her mates wait outside the door to be able to talk to her in private and peaceful
