Artemisia I surely have gone through enough heartbreaking moments in my life, but setting down Emma while she is clawing on me, surely hits the top three. I even had to get Astrid to help me get her into her bed as she started sobbing as soon as she got separated from me. I figured that it must h
Artemisia “Stop it,” I whisper pleadingly, my eyes still glued onto the dolls panicky. “Make it stop!” Just as I have uttered my plea the voices stop and the dolls tipple over inanimate. Turning my head slowly to face Fynn, I find him watching him with one of his stupid grins plastered on his fac
I scrunch my nose, playing with his shirt. “I understand now why you were so triggered by me calling myself Beta-Female.” “Yeah,” he pushes out a dry laugh. “As I found you I couldn’t stop thinking about how stupid I had been. How you could have been my Beta-Female, and wouldn’t have to cope with a
Artemisia “Is that why you said you didn’t want me as your mate?” My tears well up with tears as he nods. “Is that why you treated me like I was dirt? To make me hate you? And so make me reject you?” I ask, desperation taking over. “Yes,” he admits. “But it didn’t fucking work. You couldn’t stay
Artemisia“How are you so wet already?” he asks with a smirk, circling my clit with his finger. I moan, clasping his t-shirt, “Oh, shut up!” His smirk just gets broader, and he lets go of my hair, moving his other hand under my dress as well. “Get this off,” he growls, and I comply hurriedly, pul
Artemisia I remain clung onto him desperately as he moves his arms to sling them around my body, making me close my legs slightly and wrap them around his waist. “Damn, princess,” he pushes out, his chest heaving. After staying like this for a second, allowing our heartbeats to sync with each oth
Artemisia The next day I wake up in an empty bed. Passing my hand over the now cold bedsheets, I sigh deeply. He must have gotten away from me as soon as he could. I know that he struggled at the fact of not marking me, but he was just too set on doing it with his brothers as their marks would h
Artemisia “Didn’t I fucking tell you to hurry up?” His shouting crawls right into my veins, reaching my heart feeling like a stab. “I- I am sorry,” I say, standing up, but he just clicks his tongue. My heart flutters still in total bliss despite his deadly expression as I watch him come closer.
“Alpha Guerrieri, Alpha Saviano, as you surely already know, we aren’t in need of any support. But we appreciate your offer, and I would suggest that I let a few omegas prepare two guest rooms for you in the east wing so that you can participate in the festivities with the Judge. But I have to ask y
Emma I get startled awake by another nightmare, waking up just at the perfect moment to escape one of the guards of my dark cell piercing a silver knife into my skin. Groaning, I push my hair out of my face, scanning the bedroom. To my disappointment, my mate is still gone, and I push out a breath
Emma I flinch as a set of red eyes come closer, shining through the pitch-black darkness of the cell I’m sitting in. Shuddering, I clasp my mother’s long dress for comfort as I can still smell her scent. Even if it is slowly turning sour, her skin’s coldness only adds to the one seeping into my b
“Thank you.” I blink back my tears and walk past him. Gesturing to Chloe to not follow me, I walk towards an Omega, handing her the roll of tape. “Could you take over for me, please?” She does a small curtsy, lowering her head and I leave the room with fast steps. I hurry through the hallwa
Emma As we return to the pack house and our daily lives, I feel like I have been yanked out of paradise. On top of that, we are so taken by our tasks as future Luna and future Alpha that we barely get to see each other. Since Kai asked Alpha Cayden for his official blessing, it seems like t
“What are the odds of that?” Logan gets us to look at him as he purses his lips in thought. “What do you mean?” I straighten my spine, suddenly feeling uncomfortable sitting in my chair. Hendrick sighs, passing his hands over his face. “He means that it is strange that two people who should kn
Artemisia “Airis,” I breathe out. “I found her!” Cayden looks up, peeking into my book as I turn it towards him. With my index finger, I point at the passage that I was just reading and he glues his eyes on the black ink, mumbling as he pulls the book closer for him to read. “Airis, the messen
Emma As I open my eyes after practically fainting out of exhaustion after all those orgasms, I am shocked to find Ace lying right next to me. He has his eyes closed, seemingly sleeping peacefully while Kai is nowhere to be seen. Laying my hands beneath my head, I take advantage of the moment t
Ace slumps down in the armchair next to the bed, sighing. “Kai,” he says lowly, making me open my eyes to look at him. His eyes are set on Emma, but they seem directed into a void where he lost himself in. “I know that you hate me for what I have done to you. But you need to know that I didn’t plan
