But what can one say in such a situation? Yes, Cayden. I want to be your Luna. Cayden, I’m ready. Make me your Luna, Cayden. Take me, Cayden. Make me yours…He lifts a brow at me, tearing me out of my spiralling thoughts. “Missy?” I open my mouth several times only to close it back again. Clo
Artemisia “You don’t have to worry about making too much of a fuss. You would deserve it, but I respect your wish not to do so,” Cayden says, leaning against the door. I love how we just sat down, blocking the door to my bedroom while leaning against it. “We could tell everybody at the ball,” he
I shrug, playing with my food. “Maybe… Does that make me a bad person?” “I wouldn’t put it like that. You had a bad fight, it’s only normal that you are anxious to face him. But you’ll see that you two will make up fast.” He takes my hand in his, caressing it with his thumb. “And I actually would l
Artemisia My mother had told me so many things to prepare me for my mark. She told me about how wonderful it was as my father finally marked her, and she became officially his. She told me how happy she was, and how it had stung a bit but that the butterflies erupting in her stomach covered every
Artemisia Descending the cold steps slowly, I can feel my heartbeat pick up with every step I take. I start regretting having persisted towards Cayden that I wanted to face him all by myself. Well, I guess I won’t be alone as there are guards around. I pass the tunnel and come to a halt as I rea
“Are you going to go to the ball with Cayden officially?” He asks, his eyes darkening slightly. I shake my head, inhaling exhaustedly, “Logan…” “I’m sorry, I’m sorry,” he says, taking a step back and lifting his arms in a defensive way. “I was just asking so I can already adjust to that.” My hear
Artemisia “Harper?” I ask, taken aback at finding her coming out from what is supposed to be Fynn’s quarters. “I hope you get happy together. You certainly deserve each other!” she shoots me an angry look before walking away and out through the long hallway. What the… “Thank you!” I shou
With a deep sigh, I lean my forehead against his chest. “You are right. I’m still feeling so agitated that I don’t seem to be able to think clearly.” “It will be alright soon,” he whispers, pressing a kiss on top of my head. Looking back up at him, I pout, “He thinks you threatened me into goi
Emma “No worries,” Doctor Davies laughs as he enters the room. “I know how mates are. There is nothing that could surprise me anymore.” He turns around, looking at me, and he flashes me a big smile. As if he didn’t just treat my severe burns because of my mate’s touch. The best thing about Docto
“How bad is it?” I ask lowly, and he tilts his head, caressing my head as he flashes me an encouraging smile. “It’s all good. You got burned pretty badly, but it will soon be better. Your wolf is doing a great job.” I sigh, closing my eyes as I feel tired. “I feel a lot better already.” “That’s g
Emma My body floats in the jelly-like water again, and I fill my lungs with a deep breath before I open my eyes again to focus them on the dark ceiling. Like the last time, the flickering lights aren’t enough to enlighten the room, and I sigh exhausted as I feel my wounds close with a sizzling se
Ace - Five Years Ago “We have to stop,” Emma whispers as soon as I break the kiss, only to claim her lips again. “We will get caught.” I chuckle, biting into her lip, making her mewl lowly. “Only if you keep talking.” “I’m serious, Ace. If they find us here we will hear it until the end of our da
Emma My heart pounds against my rib cage as I try to keep my breathing steady. I’m frozen to my spot as I stare up at him. “Mate.” Jax’s rough voice vibrates through me, making goosebumps rise on my skin. “You called for me?” I’m only able to shake my head slightly, my body shivering as if I had
“Sorry, I had to mix a new ointment as the one I had prepared was gone.” I try to sit up slowly as she halts in her tracks, sniffing the air, and closes the door behind her. “Don’t let them sneak into your room without taking responsibility for wanting to be with you. They got that from their fath
Emma I open my eyes feeling like I’m lying in gelatine. My sight slowly focuses, landing on Aunty Artemisia. She is smiling, her hands tucked flatly under her head. “Good Morning.” “Good morning,” I say with a raspy voice. She exhales, keeping her voice low. “Kai asked me to check on you, and I
My heart starts racing, my air getting cut by the lump forming in my throat. “Wait. My old quarters?” “No, Kai’s quarter,” he answers dryly, pushing the door open. “This is where you will be staying during your mission.”I laugh awkwardly, shaking my head at how he says the word ‘mission’ with a sn
Ace Cayden scoots forward, sitting on the edge of his seat. “So, how will this work? Kai told me you have become the head warrior of the Royal Army. That’s a remarkable achievement to accomplish in just five years. I’m very proud of you, even if I still hope that you will be coming back.” Well, ho
