Chapter: 'You wanted her,'Chapter Twenty-SixRonan’s lips twitched, though the smirk didn’t quite return. ‘Well, whatever that was, you felt it long before I left a mark on her skin. I only tied the knot tighter. What we did here today… That fire, that hunger, that was ‘yours’, Callister. Yours alone.’His chest tightened, though no air truly passed between them. He turned his face away, glaring instead at the dim outline of the chamber around him, as though the physical world could anchor him from his wolf’s words.‘You wanted her,’ Ronan pressed, softer now, relentless but not mocking. ‘Not as a Luna: we never wanted the throne in the first place, not as a womb for an heir. You wanted ‘her’. You kissed her first. You burned first. Don’t shove it on me because you can’t bear to admit it. She doesn't have a wolf so I don't feel attached to her even though I marked her.’For a heartbeat, silence stretched between them; thick, charged, heavy with truths Callister didn’t want to hear. His eyes darted to the sleep

Chapter: 'She looked like Lilith. My Lilith.’Chapter Twenty-FiveShe shifted once, a faint murmur slipping past her lips, but exhaustion claimed her quickly. Her lashes stilled, her breathing softened, and within moments she was asleep beneath him, utterly spent.He lay on his side, propped up by one elbow, watching her in the muted dark. There was something unsettling in the quiet, something he couldn’t name as he studied the delicate rise and fall of her chest.He was a step closer to getting an heir.He should have left. He should have pulled away, cold and indifferent.But he didn’t.Instead, his hand lingered, brushing a stray lock of hair from her face, his eyes fixed on her as though some unspoken truth had bound him there long after the fire had burned out.Callister’s gaze continued to linger on her face, soft in slumber, her chest rising in even rhythm. For a moment, the silence of the chamber wrapped around him like a shroud. But he should have known better than to expect peace.From the shadows of his mind, Ronan eme

Chapter: “Mine”Chapter Twenty-FourHer cry broke against his mouth, muffled and sharp, her nails raking down his back in a desperate reflex. He groaned into the kiss, a sound guttural and raw, hips pressing flush against hers as if to hammer the truth of it into her bones: she was taken, filled, possessed.He didn’t give her time to catch her breath. His hips drew back only to slam forward again, the sudden force making the bed jolt beneath them. A wet sound echoed between their bodies, obscene, undeniable.Her thighs quivered around his waist, the involuntary clench of her body pulling him deeper, tighter, until his rhythm grew harsher, punishing, each thrust punctuated by the rasp of his breath and the bruising grip of his hand on her hip.“Mine,” he growled against her throat, teeth scraping the delicate skin as his pace drove harder, faster, each stroke shattering her resistance piece by piece.She should have fought. But her body betrayed her with every moan, every arch of her back, every shive

Chapter: Caging her in completelyChapter Twenty-ThreeAnd the moon goddess help her, the worst part was the shiver running through her spine, the way her skin seemed to crave more of the same.His hand lingered one last time against her breast, squeezing just enough to make her breath hitch, before his other hand seized her waist. The shift was sudden, forceful.With a sharp push, he drove her backward.Her knees buckled against the edge of the mattress, and the next thing she knew, her body hit the bed with a soft thud, the coverlet wrinkling beneath her. Her hair spilled across the pillows, strands fanning like ink across pale sheets.He stood over her, broad shoulders blotting out the chamber’s dim light, his chest rising and falling with the same unyielding rhythm that seemed to command the air itself.For a heartbeat, she only stared up at him, stunned, her pulse hammering wild beneath her skin.Her cloak had slipped, baring the curve of her shoulder, and his eyes, those merciless, storm-dark eyes, followed the

Chapter: It was like an instinctChapter Twenty-TwoBut he had felt it too. He had felt the way she had melted, the way her mouth had given under his.Eileen’s heart slammed painfully in her chest, panic and something hot colliding until she could not name either. She wanted to shove him away, claw the smirk she knew would bloom on his face, but her body betrayed her still, leaning into the heat of him, aching with a need that sickened her.‘What are you doing?’ she screamed at herself in silence. ‘This is the man whose family ruined everything. The man whose bloodline slaughtered your family. You should bite his tongue off, not—’Her mind was screaming no, but her body moved anyway. His lips dragged harder against hers, rough and claiming, and the thought shattered.Somewhere in the blur of his mouth pressing harder, of the fire coursing where ice should have lived, she didn’t even notice when one of her hands slipped free of his hold.It was like an instinct; a traitorous, damning instinct that flung it upward and

Chapter: Every nerve screamedChapter Twenty-OneHer chest heaved, fury and helplessness tangling until she could hardly breathe. His grip on her wrists burned, not just from the force but from the sheer audacity of it: how easily he dismissed her resistance, how little it meant to him that she tried to shield herself.He did not look at her face now. His gaze dragged downward, slow and deliberate, stripping her in ways harsher than the fabric had slid from her skin.“Pathetic,” he muttered, voice low, almost to himself. His hands shoved hers harder against her sides, as though daring her to try again. “As if covering yourself makes a difference.”She jerked against him, uselessly, a trapped bird beating wings against iron bars. His hold didn’t waver.Every nerve screamed at her to spit in his face, to claw at him, to scream but another voice coiled deep inside her chest. It was cold and sharp. ‘Not now. Not like this.’ If she broke here, if she wasted her rage, there would be nothing left for the vengeance she ha
