“Matteo it is not that big a deal.” I try arguing. It’s difficult to argue with someone driving and not looking at you. I hate that he makes me sit in the backseat like I’m a child.
“No, Princess. I am not leaving you alone with him.” He growls at me.
“What do you think is going to happen, Matteo?” I’m irritated now. I am a grown ass woman. I don’t need a babysitter while I sit at my desk the whole day.
“Nothing. But I’m there incase something does happen. Incase I need to protect you!”
“You just said nothing is going to happen. That means you don’t need to be with me the whole day.”
“But something could happen.” He glares at me in the rear view mirror.
“Like what, Matteo? What do you think is going to happen? Worse case scenario?”

We pull up to an abandoned parking lot with high rise buildings on either side. There is no one else here.“Not shadey, right.” I slam the door as we get out the car and walk to the middle of the lot.A woman with auburn hair leads a group of men and woman out from the parking garage entrance.“Milo.” She greets. “What have you brought tonight?”“Smells good.” The man to her right chips in.“Leroy’s new assistant. She’s here to sign for the order.” Milo says to the woman, female. She’s female. A Vamp. All of them are.“This,” she gestures to me, “Is the his new assistant? I don’t recall Leroy having lap dogs, especially not bitches. I think you’re here to steal from me, Milo.”“This can speak.” I snarl at her. “Now hand over the order before there’s a problem. Ler

“You’re in trouble.”“When am I not?” I say over the phone to Matteo as I pull into the garage.“He wants to see you in his office.”“Tell him he needs to be more creative with the places he shouts at me. A good hall scene might be nice once in a while. Let the omega’s listen around the corner. Some good old castle drama.”“Do you think they don’t press their ears to the study door?”“I’m surprised their ballsy enough to do that.”“As long as they’ve never been caught, they do as they please.”“I need to clean up before he sees me.”“I’m not playing messenger anymore. Talk to your own mate.”“Fine.” I hang up the phone.As I step foot in the castle, Matteo and Jace sprint around the corner.“Wha

“Kim darling what a nice surprise.” The Queens coos as I walk into the royals dining room. “Will someone please fix the Princess a seat.” She says to one of the omega’s.“Good Morning.” I greet to the whole table before taking my seat next to Reece. He looks at me dumbfound.“This is a lovely.” The Queen turns her attention back to me. “To what do we owe this welcome surprise?”“It was actually Reece’s idea that I spend more time with the family.” I smile and lay my napkin on my lap. “I hope to make it a regular occurrence rather than a surprise every now and then.”“That would be wonderful.” She smiles back.Everyone falls into idle chitchat as Reece leans over to me.“You look gorgeous this morning.”“Thank you.” I say sweetly, allowing a blush to stain my cheek

My mind hasn’t stopped spewing thoughts since breakfast this morning. I honestly don’t know what happened. After I stuffed myself into my once perfect bra and top, I was walking down the hall with my arm laced through Reece’s, we were talking about going away to a Northern Europe Country in the winter. Next minute, the smell of bacon was suffocating me. The nausea gripped me so hard I actually doubled over and began dry heaving. Maybe…“Would you mind doing me a favour, Matteo?” I ask him from the backseat of the car.“It depends on the favour, Princess.” He looks in the rear view mirror at me.“You’ll enjoy doing this one.” A soft smile tugs my lips.“Okay.”“Would you mind going to a pharmacy after you drop me at work and getting 4 pregnancy tests. All different brands. Please.” My voice is slightly shakey but Matteo’s broad sm
A Crown of Halos (book 1 of the Angel series) 28) Calypso POV
CalypsoWe’re all sitting at breakfast. I absentmindedly pick at my food, letting my mind run. All I can think of is the battlefield. All I ever think of is the battlefield.The sweet tang of blood in the air. The iron mixed with dirt. The beating sun. Everything about it was bliss. After the battle I was so drained and my mind reeled but looking back it was like my body, my blood, deep within my cells, craved the battle and bloodshed.Craved the power death holds.Kim wasn’t entirely with it during the fight but I felt more alive then even before. I commanded teams and brought my own sword upon enemies.I am a warrior.The Army General said he was proud of me and how I handled myself out there. He said once I’m old enough I’ll be in charge of my own team.But since that day… all I can think about is blood and death. I can feel it’s stickyness dripping from my fi

PullPluckPinchStickSprayMore hereLess thereFluff thisFlatten thatThere is a swarm of females in my room getting me ready for the ball.The ball. The baby’s ball.The little tot isn’t even a semblance of a person and it’s being thrown a whole ball.I didn’t realise just how much I wanted a baby until I found out I was pregnant. Now my whole life seems to revolve around it. Planning and decorating and baby proofing. I mean I even read out loud to my belly. Which is all so ridiculous seeing as the little thing is barely a month old.But I’m allowed to be excited, right? Everyone else certainly is. Fussing over me and the baby even though the baby isn’t really a baby yet.The only person who’s unhappy about it is Roy. He tries to hide his disdain but I know, I know he’s unh

I stand in Reece’s office. I smell like sex. I feel like shit. He’s never done that before. Never been so possessive, so… claiming. That’s what he did though, he claimed me, marked his territory. He even bit into his mark again, made me smell like him.Then left.Left me all alone. In this stupid office. He said it was so I could make myself decent again. He said it so sweetly too. With nothing but love in his voice.So here I stand, on my office balcony. Staring into the great wide darkness. There’s not moon tonight, no stars, no light. No hope.What a pathetic little life I’ve got here.I hide who I truly am from the one person who’s supposed to love me the most. Love me for who I am. But he doesn’t want me to be who I truly am. He loves the sweet little princess I twist myself into just for him. He constantly tells me how much more he loves me now, like this. Maybe I&
A Crown of Halos (book 1 of the Angel series) 31) one last night
Its still early in the afternoon so I decide to do some light reading. Reece got over his possessive BS and let me carry on working. So, after the two months I’ve been working with as his assistant, Roy decided it’s time to let me shadow an editor in my spare time, which isn't much but it's a start. The editor is such a nice female. Her name is Helietta and she is a 600 year old fae who has been editing since the first printing press so I have a CRAP TONNE to learn from her. I sit all tucked up on one of the wicker chair on my office patio. I turn to the next chapter of one of the project books she gave me to edit. It's nothing big but it's still something. Immediately I'm hooked. Sounds start to fade, the room begins to morph into some else's bedroom and Reece's stare fades with my reality. I can feel the main characters touch on my skin. The sound of the river outside of the tavern room. The roudy sailers drinking their beer downstairs. I can feel the leather belt unde
