CLARISSA

Jaxon turned to look at me with eyes that gleamed like coals. The chaos unfolding around us meant nothing to me at this point. All I could see was the stranger wearing my mate's skin.

"Hey," he drawled as though he was just seeing me for the first time. And I knew...I knew that it was an effect of the void.

"Who are you? You're not my Jaxon," I said, and he beamed, his eyes sparkling with delight.

"Smart girl," he purred, taking my hand in his, his fingers colder than ice. His gaze roamed my features with unnerving amusement. "I see why he's crazy about you."

I frowned.

Was he talking about himself or...

"You're right. I'm not him." He sounded so smug, I wanted to slap him on the face.

"Who the hell are you?" I demanded, and he pulled me towards him, leaning over to whisper in my ear.

"Technically, I'm a creature born from his dark consciousness and the hollow king's consciousness." His voice dropped by an octave. Hearing those words from him sent chills down my spin

  • A Baby For My Professor    Ninety one

    CLARISSA Lilith screamed.Her blood painted the stone walls of the basement in thick crimson splashes, the sound of her agony echoing off the iron pipes. I didn't flinch. I wanted her to scream. I’d chopped off her hands for daring to touch my baby, and now I would bleed her dry. She deserved it.General Vale lay twisted in a pool of his own gore, his chest carved open like the monster he was. He died too quickly. He should've suffered. But I made sure Lilith felt every second of what she’d stolen from me and my family.Power pulsed at my fingertips, white-hot and blinding, webbing across the floor. Lilith's limbs jerked, and she screamed as my magic scorched her nerves from the inside out."You don't get to die easily," I growled. "You don't get mercy.”Her blood-coated lips moved, mumbling something. A plea? A curse? It didn't matter. I wasn't listening.It was at this point that I felt the warmth that accompanied my mate’s presence.Jaxon. He was here.His hand slid around my

    ZION The moment I saw Lilith holding the child version of myself, the dreadful memories from my timeline filled my head.She had no right. No right to be near him. No right to breathe the same air as him. Not after what she did in my timeline. Not after she butchered children with a smile or when she and her brother dragged my mother's corpse to the Hollow King and made her a bargaining chip.Not after they turned my world into a graveyard.My grip tightened on the doorframe. They should be thankful I wasn't in top condition. But that didn't mean that I would let them have their way. So I moved, faster than they could've predicted.And then I was in front of her. Lilith. My claws sliced through the delicate column of her throat like it was paper. Her eyes widened, and blood spurted across my arm. She tried to scream, but all that came out was a wet, gurgling rasp.I caught the infant—my younger self—before he hit the floor. He blinked up at me with innocence and trust, oblivious

  • A Baby For My Professor    Eighty Nine

    CLARISSA Morning came like a thief after a sleepless night. I hadn't really slept, not with Callum's voice still echoing in my head. I had just breastfed my baby, and he was now sleeping in his grandma’s arms. So I headed out of the room in search of Jaxon."I'm trapped in here, Evie. Please save me."Even now, the words made my skin prickle.Evie.No one had called me that in years. Not since I was a girl with scraped knees and a wild laugh. I shook the thought away and walked down the hallway. Zion's room was just up ahead.The sound hit me first...the sound of his ragged breathing.My pulse spiked.I turned, my heart leaping into my throat, and found him doubled over by the wall, one hand gripping the edge of a dresser for balance. His chest rose and fell heavily like he was trying to ride out his pain. Only one sleeve of his shirt was on, the other was hanging off his sculpted frame. His muscles were straining, sweat sliding down his temple.Jaxon's shirt.I recognized the fabr

    CLARISSA I jolted awake in bed with a start. I was so certain I’d just heard a deafening crash but the house was too quiet.I sat up, my heart pounding so loud it drowned out everything else. For a second, I couldn't breathe. The room was dark, washed in silver moonlight, but it was empty.Jaxon wasn't beside me.Panic gripped me.I reached out, my hand brushing the cold sheets where his warmth should've been. My stomach twisted. Something felt... off.I hurried across the room in quick strides. Zion was still in his cot, sleeping peacefully, his tiny fists curled under his chin.But the instinct in me that had surged to life the first time I’d heard his cry roared louder now.I slipped on my robe, lifting Zion gently into my arms. He stirred, letting out a soft sound. Then he settled on my chest.I pressed a kiss to his head and moved towards the door, my heartbeat echoing in my ears.As I stepped into the hallway, I heard Jaxon’s voice. He sounded concerned.I moved faster, h

    Warning +18JAXON I couldn't answer because she was right.Clarissa's lips brushed my neck. "You should know by now, Jaxon... You're the only one I'd touch like this."Her hand began to move with maddening precision, alternating her rhythm. She was tearing my control apart one breath at a time.I groaned, my head tipping back against the shower wall, water cascading down my chest. "Clarissa..."But she was already sinking to her knees in front of me, her hands gliding down my thighs, anchoring herself there. Her lips parted, her warm breath brushing my skin. Then she took me into her mouth.My fingers immediately tangled in her wet hair, a shudder running through me."Fuck... Clarissa—" I moaned, pleasure coating my insides.Every flick of her tongue pulled a deeper sound from my throat, the kind of sound I'd never let anyone else hear. The kind only she could wring from me.My release hit me like a wave. It was all-consuming and blinding. My fingers clenched in her hair as I let

    JAXON "Hey, old man."The words were casual. I didn't think I would ever hear those words at my age. Therefore, they hit me like a goddamn truck.I didn't move.My bloodied fist curled tighter as the world slowed down to a crawl. The copper tang of blood filled my lungs. It wasn't from my kill. Neither was it from the fight I'd barely survived. No, this was different.It was coming from the man bleeding on the floor looking exactly like...No. No, it wasn't possible.I stepped forward slowly, my boots thudding against the marble floor. The others were frozen, their eyes darting between him and me like they were waiting for something to explode."Who the hell are you?" I demanded.The smirking bastard looked up at me with those eyes...those same damn eyes as the infant I'd cradled just days ago...glinting with something that didn't belong in a dying man."Still venomous," he rasped. "Good to know how long you've been like that."I didn't blink or let my shock show. Not yet.But s
