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
Artemisia Fynn continues to kiss me as I feel Cayden‘s burning gaze on us. Breaking the kiss, he moves back down to my breasts, biting into my nipple gently. He continues to massage my breasts with his hand while playing with my other one with his mouth. I moan lowly, turning my head to see Cayde
Artemisia Fynn pushes into me, steering my core to hover over Cayden’s hip. Cayden is holding his cock perfectly for Fynn to make me impale myself on him. Wrapping my arms around Fynn’s neck behind me, I scream in pleasure as they fill me. “Fuck. Fuck. Fuck,” I scream as Fynn starts lifting me up
“Of course,” I say breathlessly, smiling up at him, and love how he lights up. I’m about to get up as Cayden pulls me back against his frame, turning to have me sitting in his lap with a squeal. He presses his lips to my ear, my heart halting in my chest as he asks me in a husky whisper, “Do you t
Ace‘We will just stay calm and leave everything to your family,’ Aamon purrs, wanting to calm myself as I gulp down the bile rising in my throat. The greater good. The greater good. The greater good. I keep repeating my mantra in my head, taking a deep breath while I tune out Aamon laughing and
Chuckling at my brain thinking that he isn’t as heavy as he seems, I close my eyes. He is going to crush my spine. But I don’t fucking care. I can’t. My eyes follow the Judge talking with Emma as she looks at him terrified. ‘We need to get her,’ I plead, ignoring my bones crushing under the wol
Kai A nauseating sensation wafts through me, causing me to look for my mate through the fighting warriors.I spot my mother making an elegant gesture with her hand. One that might seem irrelevant or random to someone who doesn’t know her, but I know better than that. Just as Emma does. My thought
Emma After the welcome dinner for the Judge, things only got awkward. Artemisia and I showed the Judge and his warriors to their quarters, my stomach churning as we had to be respectful. And sickenly kind. On our way back to our floors, Artemisia had put her arm around me and we had climbed the s
I do a small curtsy quickly, fearing I might throw up if I don’t move instantly. “Me too, your Honour.” ‘Brilliant. You are doing awesomely. We got this, he can’t hurt you if we are here,’ the voice calms my panicky self, even if I can’t wrap my head around who he might be or think about the fact t
Emma “It’s Blackwood,” Kai mumbles, making me giggle. Is it? I shake my head, flashing the Judge my best smile. “Just a little bit, your Honour. Nothing to be worried about.” Wrapping my arm around Serena who hides behind me while clasping my dress, I watch him laugh while holding his belly. “We
Now I finally manage to smile, leaning slightly towards her as Judge Attwood nods, his happy expression growing. “I see, Kai Blackwood and Emma Silvester will be a fantastic couple to lead the pack. I can already picture it perfectly.” “Thank you, Judge Attwood. I feel immensely honoured by your co
Emma The day I’m standing on the stairs of the pack house behind Luna Artemisa and Alpha Cayden, I feel like breathing becomes increasingly difficult. I fight to keep my back straightened, pushing down the urge to hyperventilate. The last few days have been awfully stressful, the preparations for
Emma I startle awake, my cry for help fading into the darkness and it takes me a moment to realise that I’m looking into a set of red eyes that are indeed very real. “Another nightmare?” His deep voice vibrates through me, and I nod, still catching my breath. He captures my lips in a kiss, before
