All Chapters of Gravity: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

Shoran started experiencing pain, I could see it and feel it. This wasn’t discomfort. She let out a small cry and I had to put my arm in front of James to stop him from disrupting whatever Adara was doing.Even though I could see that Shoran was in pain, I knew that Adara would never do anything to harm her. James knew that too, but his instincts told him to protect his mate, at any cost.Adara held her hands over Shoran for the next thirty minutes, whispering to herself. Every now and then Shoran would scream and tears were streaking her face when James had left the room. He couldn’t watch Shoran undergoing this agony and not being able to help her. He had told me to ease some of her pain.“No. You can’t take it. She has to feel it for it to work.” Adara was stern and continued humming. I stood and watched and finally I understood what she was doing as I felt the odd pain inside myself. She finally opened her eyes and said I could help Shoran with her pain now. I concentrated on Shor

Adara went upstairs to shower after Declan had parked in front of the house. She used jet lag as an excuse to go to bed early. The truth was, she was hurt and angry and lonely. She just wanted a moment alone and Declan had looked at her in such a way that she knew he wanted to have her naked underneath him.Even though she was in love with Declan, sleeping with him made her feel guilty. She wasn’t sure why she felt guilty, they were basically engaged and Kiran didn’t love her anymore. She shouldn’t feel guilty at all, but she did, so she made excuses not to be intimate with him.Declan had told her that he would speak to Peter and Claire and announce their plans to marry. He had told her not to worry about a thing. He would get everything sorted out so that she could use this time to concentrate on her powers and to just enjoy being engaged to him.“No Declan! I won’t do it!” Peter Gillian’s voice rose an octave.They were alone in his study and what Declan was requesting was lunacy.

I stepped out of the small office and I saw a young woman on the beach, struggling with a canoe. I walked up to her and started to laugh. She turned around and my breath caught in my throat. She was exotically beautiful and I was aware that I was staring.“Let me help you with that.” I picked up the canoe, getting my bearings straight and put it face down on the beach. “I hope you’re not planning to go out on the water in this thing, are you?”“Thanks and actually I was, it’s so beautiful here.” She smiled at me, even her voice was beautiful and I smiled back at her, she had that type of smile, one you couldn’t resist.“Not such a good idea, the wind’s going to pick up and you don’t want to get caught out there when it does, you’ll flip over.” I was intensely aware of the sweat in my hair as she gazed intently at me.“Right … and you are?”“I’m sorry… I’m Kiran.” I stuck my hand out like an idiot but she smiled as she shook my hand and we both pulled our hands back at the spark of ele

She walked past me and her hand lightly touched mine; I turned around and followed her as she walked towards her cabin. Faintly in the background, I heard Sam shout something but I couldn’t care less what it was about. She unlocked her door and walked inside, leaving the door ajar. I pushed it open and walked inside and closed it as she turned to look at me.I forgot about work, I forgot about Jessica and I even forgot about Adara. I picked her up as she stood against me and we were kissing. All I cared about was her, right here, right now. I felt obsessed, addicted even, her smell, her taste, it was all about her. She was clawing at my shirt and I put her down on the small kitchen counter.I blinked and we were half naked and she wrapped her legs around me. I walked with her to the bed and she clung to me as we fell on top of the covers. Before I knew it, I was inside her and she was matching my rhythm; there was no tomorrow, no next week. There was only now, the sex, urgent and amaz

Adara struggled to sleep, she felt dizzy and nauseated. She got up and wandered through the house. The bed seemed strange, big and empty. She went down to the kitchen and got some water. She concentrated on her own spirit, healing herself. After a few minutes she felt a bit stronger and slightly better.She sat in the living room all through the night, staring out of the window. She tried Malachi’s phone a few times, but it went to voicemail. She wished Karani was still alive. She needed her so much. Karani would know exactly what to say. She missed her so much that it hurt.“Adara.” Adara’s head snapped up because the voice that had spoken to her belonged to Karani.“Am I dreaming?”“I’m right here with you.”“I’ve missed you so much, Karani.” Tears were flowing freely over Adara’s cheeks as Karani gripped her hand tightly.“What are you doing, Adara? This isn’t your home.”“I don’t have a home anymore. You were wrong, Karani, Kiran doesn’t love me.” The words were choked sobs and Ad
