Lyra's POV

Xavier’s last bruising kiss tore at me, and even though it tugged at the hem of my sanity, I didn't dare question him. When I'd let the words slip that I wanted him, I knew very well what I was up for, but I guess in Xavier's own twisted way, he was about to show me that I had no idea what he had up his sleeve up for me.

His last kiss barely lasted a second, but it rocked my core in ways I didn't even know was possible. In the blink

In the blink of an eye, he pulled himself away, dragging me up with him. His hand wrapped firmly around my wrist, guiding me across the room with a determination that made my pulse skip. Before I could even catch my breath, he had me pressed against the massive window, my bare breasts flattened against the cool glass, and my reflection staring back at me through the faint moonlight.

“Xavier.” My voice was strained and tainted with pleasure. I couldn't even hide the fact that I was close to heaven now, and he must have felt it, because he

  • A night with my ex-husband’s step brother    Chapter 95

    Xavier's POV I'd never been a big fan of mornings, but today was particularly worse. The sun didn't shine as much as it used to, but I doubted it was just that. There was something else in the air. It came with a gloomy mood and a dull cold that affected my mind instead of my body. I tried to shake it off, but in between doing that and trying to push away the one woman that refuses to leave the back of my mind, it was next to impossible. I didn't sleep. Even though I tried to delude myself into thinking that I had, the pain at my lower back said otherwise. I'd spent as good half of the night turning and tossing. My mind wasn't at rest, and the few minutes I got to close my eyes, I was plagued with dreams about Lyra. There were many to choose from, but I remembered chasing her and then shutting her out. Then trying to get her to speak to me again, but she refused to give me the light of day. After a series of events, I eventually woke up with me screaming and clawing at a huge doo

    Lyra's POV I'd always heard that things changed, from houses, to people, and even phenomenon, but if there was one thing that seemed to have remained the way it was, then it just had to be the council chambers. To me, what made it stand out, was how freaking cold the damned place always was, and I didn't mean it as a compliment. While I'd steeled myself that the unending cold was something I was going to have to deal with again, nothing could have actually prepared me for the said place. The council chamber was colder than I remembered, and that was me saying something because I'd been in here only a couple of days ago. I refused to believe that the stone walls did all the icing out, the council members Stony hearts and icy demeanor were just a bonus that wasn't needed. A chill raced down my spine the moment I stepped in. It came with a silence that pressed down at me from all sides, like the very stones leaned forward to listen, eager to see me fail.The councilmen sat in the

    Lyra’s POV The next morning came like a cruel joke, and honestly, I wished it hadn't. Prior to today, I looked forward to the sunrise and the sun seeping in through the window so, but today, I hated the sight of it. Heaven knows I would have preferred gray skies and thunder clouds to yellowly mess that was bright outside. The sun's rays poured through my window, and it spilled across the bed in golden sheets, but it didn’t bring warmth, not for me at least. The space beside me was still empty, the silence thicker than any embrace could ever be.Xavier hadn’t returned.We didn't sleep in the same room, but for a tiny second, I actually allowed myself to think that Xavier might actually return. It would probably be off brand for him, but I actually allowed myself bask in an alternate universe where Xavier would creep into my room and bed before I woke up. Then, the moment I opened my eyes the next morning, we would make up, and maybe get makeup sex too. “Stop it, Lyra.” I chided

  • A night with my ex-husband’s step brother    Chapter 92

    Xavier POV The slam of the door echoed long after I’d shoved it shut, reverberating through my bones like a war drum. I tried to drown it out, but it just didn't budge. Instead, the soundh stood rooted in its spot like a damned splinter in the most uncomfortable places. Without thinking, I pressed my palms against the wood, nails biting in, and my breath coming out in ragged wisps. Even though I wouldn't admit it openly, I could still hear her voice on the other side, soft, pleading, but that wasn't the bad part. Even after everything, a part of me was still inclined to open the door and tell her it was okay. Comfort her too, but I couldn't. I shouldn't. Not mad. That’s what I told her. I'd told her that I wasn't mad and that everything was okay, but it was a lie sharp enough to cut my own tongue. I was furious, but it wasn’t the kind of fury I could unleash. No, this one coiled inward, like venom in my veins, and spreading through every inch of me until it burned.If she had ch

    Lyra's POV The silence stretched like a blade across my throat. I parted my lips to speak, but absolutely no words came out, and while that should have been an issue of concern, I didn't really think too much about it, because right now, the chances of me saying something to escalate the entire thing was more than high. If someone had whispered that this would happen before I walked out of my room a couple of minutes ago, then maybe, just maybe I wouldn't have come out. I would have remained under the duvets where Xavier had left me. The silence echoing in the hall made the world tilt. My breath hitched in my throat and even though I knew I could pass out anytime soon, it still didn't jerk my body into action. I forced my eyes to dart everywhere else asides Xavier's face, but there was no way I could run forever. Eventually, my gaze locked on him, and I wish it didn't. Xavier stood at the far end of the hallway, his eyes fixed on me, on us. The fury I expected never came. There

  • A night with my ex-husband’s step brother    Chapter 90

    Lyra's POV The silence after Xavier left me in my rom was heavier than any whisper in the banquet hall. I lay there for what felt like hours, staring at the ceiling, and listening to the sound of my own shallow breaths. A part of me had thought that if I tried to relax, maybe everything would be okay. That if I pretended that nothing in the banquet hall had happened or was real, then it would become that way. But the more I tried to ignore it, the more it registered itself at the back of my mind, like a dam headache that just didn't want to let me be. I pulled the covers higher than how Xavier had left it, but no matter how tightly I pulled the covers around me, I couldn’t shake the feeling of being exposed. Every word they had spat, every mocking look, pressed against my skin like a brand.Was that how they all felt about me? After everything I'd done, after everything I'd sacrificed for this pack, how could they just up and turn against me like I was nothing and nobody to them?
