All Chapters of Winter: Chapter 61 - Chapter 70

I pried my arm out of his grasp and shook my head. “He might listen to me. It’s stupid. I know. But I can use myself as leverage. If you’re so worried about my chastity, then come with me.”Turning again, I made my way into the party. There were different groups that were filling the main center. Some were around music, dancing and drinking without a care. Some were starting fights and what looked like gambling. It looked like a movie set. I wondered if Galen promised them that they wouldn’t get in trouble for anything as long as they stuck with him.As I maneuvered through the sea of drunk assholes, I hit the inner ring. It was a weight ring around both the bonfire and the gazebo. They were just talking and laughing, drinking, dancing and watching the chaos of the surrounding groups.I couldn’t understand why Rebecca was sitting in the gazebo with Galen. She always said that he gave her the ick too. It might have been the onl

I let out a long and slow breath as I pushed my hair back. Despite his magic, I hadn’t given up. I picked up my speed and I pushed myself as hard as I could. My eyes glanced at the timer in Kenneth’s hands. It hit fifty-nine seconds left and I looked back at Galen. He was standing completely unbothered, smirking at me.He’d been using magic to teleport just out of my reach. Usually, it was just before I hit him and he would appear behind me. I didn’t know if there were any limitations on it, but I didn’t have the time to figure it out. Part of me wanted to cry. To just fall to my knees and give up.Originally, I thought I might have been able to get in a lucky hit. That maybe I had a chance. Not overconfidence but at least a little confidence. No. I was just being stupid to think Galen would doing something dirty like this. Dee was right. I’d never hear the end of this. I’d hear ‘I told you so’ from him until the day I died. With magic involved, I didn’t stand a chance.‘Stoop to his l

A searing pain rippled through. It invaded my dream and I screamed, thrashing until I felt myself back in my body. I continued to scream though, realizing that I was being pinned down to the bed. My eyes flung open and my heart sunk deep into my stomach.“And here I thought I would managed to at least get my dick in you before you woke up.”Galen was looking down at me, parts of his face sprouting fur as his wolf seemed to be taking over. He looked absolutely manic. His chest was bare and his arms were pinning mine up against the bed just above my shoulders. I couldn’t rotate my shoulders and so there was no way for my hands to reach him.“You know…you embarrassed me, in front of everyone!” He yelled at me, spit spraying from his mouth.The blankets had been pulled off the bed and he was sitting on my hips. I did everything I could to try and get him off. Twisting my body, hitting him in the back with my legs, twisting my arms. I did everything I could bu

Again, the feeling of being overwhelmed rushed through me. My hands shook as I couldn’t imagine keeping up with the thoughts wanting to rush out of my head. It didn’t help that Caspian was looking at me like he was about to make a run for it. His worry was written all over his face as he tried to understand what I was thinking.“Winter…”Looking around, I spied the clipboard with the paper I had used earlier that day. I grabbed it and fumbled with the pen before finally writing.  How? When? When did you know? How do we know? What do we do now? What is going to happen? What…  His hand grabbed mine and I felt my heart leap into my chest. Tearing my eyes away from the paper, I looked back up at him.“Winter, relax. Not everything needs to come out now.” M

Krista squealed as I gave her a rundown of what I spoke about with Caspian, and also how I felt after. When I was done, I buried my face in my hands. She sat up, straddling my legs as she faced me.“You can’t be embarrassed, Winny! He’s your mate!”“Yeah but…like…this is all…I’ve never…” I could feel my ears getting red.Krista laughed. “Oh you sweet summer child.”“Winter. Winter child.”She laughed again. “Winter, you don’t need to worry about that right now. I think he will have enough sense not to push you into anything. Usually, even if mates do mate right away, there is a period of transition. They still ease into the processes. It’s not something that wham! All of a sudden you’re moved in, having kids, and showering together.” Humming, I watched her wrinkle her nose. “I guess some do. But it&rsqu
