All Chapters of Gravity: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

At their room we bid James and Shoran goodnight and went up to our room. I unlocked the door and it swung open. I picked Adara up and carried her inside. She was laughing and I smiled at her. I kicked the door closed with my foot and put her down in front of the bed.“I’m the luckiest woman in the world,” Adara said in the darkness as we stood in front of each other.She leaned in and kissed me and then turned around. I slowly unbuttoned her dress. She turned around again and I gently pulled the delicate fabric down her arms, down to her waist and it fell to a heap on the floor.She stepped out of the dress and she took my hands away from my shirt. I had started to unbutton it and she continued. Once she was done, I took my shirt off and she loosened my belt. There was a soft knock at the door and I groaned.“Go away!” Adara said loudly but the knock came again. I turned towards the door and Adara hurriedly put on a robe. I opened the door and looked at the young woman that stood in f

There was no doorman for this building and he stood outside waiting for someone to either come out or go in. He waited for an hour before an old lady opened the door and he held it for her smiling.“Thank you, young man.” The old lady smiled gratefully at him. He smiled back at her and then slipped inside. He walked up the stairs to the first floor and knocked on the first door. He pulled his cap low over his face as the door opened up.“Yes? Can I help you?” The man was probably in his seventies, thinning gray hair and a slight stoop to his shoulder.“Morning Sir, I have a package for a James Thomas but there’s no apartment number on it. Can you perhaps help me?” Adrian asked and smiled.“Sure, such a nice young man, very helpful. They live in apartment 4D, right at the end of the hall,” he informed Adrian.“Thank you very much Sir.” Adrian nodded his head and turned towards the stairs.“You won’t find him there. They’ve already left for school. They’ll be back at about three this af

Her spell had been effective, she had experienced the power of it for herself. She had planned on entertaining Kiran for the next three or four weeks until she could do a pregnancy test, not that she minded a repeat of the previous night.When she saw that it was eight pm she sat down on the floor and drew a circle in the air around her. She took the crystal from the windowsill and clenched it in her hand tightly as she murmured to herself.“I call on you Urdr to show me what once was. I call on you Verdandi to show me what will be. I call on you Skuld to show what shall be. I call on the Norns to show me the past, the future and the present.”Dezrael’s eyes opened with a shocked gasp coming from her throat. Her spell on Kiran had been broken and she was blinded to see how or why it had happened. Kiran Sinclair would not be coming back to her cabin.She closed her eyes again and said a desperate prayer to Freya and called on the magic of the elves in Alfheim; she needed the fertility

“Tomorrow we’ll get you some better clothes and then we’ll head back to Seward, off the grid, nobody can know that I’m back in town until I’ve completed what I’ve set out to do.” Adrian made himself comfortable on the chair as Juniper’s eyes snapped up to his.“Seward?” she asked hesitantly. She was banished from Seward.“What’s for dinner?” Adrian’s question threw her off.There was definitely something wrong with him. How could he think of food when he’d just told her he was planning on massacring an Alpha family. Was he insane? Did he think he’d be able to kill them all? She’d seen how calm Malachi Sinclair was under pressure. He was going to get her killed.“There’s no food here, I buy as I earn.”“Slow night huh?” It made sense to Adrian now, the cheap clothes, the scuffed shoes, the worn out look on her face.“I’m not a prostitute you asshole! I eat at the bar after my shift.” Juniper said furiously.She jumped up from the couch, her anger pushing forward, but he aimed the gun a

I grabbed a bottle of water from the fridge and emptied it. I didn’t like where this conversation was going, but I also knew that Christian wouldn’t be leaving this house. He belonged with us and I’d always look out for him. I didn’t think that Adara was aware of just how much I loved him.“Where are you going?”“To bed. How long are you still going to be?”“I’ll be up in a little while.” I kissed her cheek as she smiled at me and I headed upstairs.Christian was sleeping with his one hand under his cheek and I smiled as I looked at him. I could never let him go and in that moment I made a decision. I was going to adopt Christian. Malachi had been right, again.I closed Christian’s door and took my clothes off as I headed to the bathroom and stepped into the shower. I stood under the heat of the blasting water with my head bowed and I smiled as the shower door opened.Adara’s hands snaked down my stomach and she pressed herself against my back. “You are so bad.”Her laugh was a light
