LOGIN“Where were you when she was attacked?” All colour drains from her face. “I—” “Kingston,” Maddox laughs, hitting my chest. “Sorry, he’s a little protective of her, you get it, huh? Mate bonds.” He says, as if trying out the word. “Actually…” “What did you want to speak about?” I demand. They’re
“Let’s meet at the institution to further discuss. There’s a lot I can’t say over the phone.” She says, “Just call me when you get here.” And with that, the line goes dead. Maddox and I share a look, and I shake my head. I don’t like the sound of Evelyn’s tone. I’ve been uneasy about Aeliana being
“The doctors don’t think it’s a good idea for her to leave, much less after her escape.” “I didn't like leaving her there,” Maddox groans. “She seemed done.” His voice drops, “She didn’t even fight it like last time.” “It’s a good thing, is it not?” Danielle frowns. “No,” he sighs. “It’s worrying

Audrey frowns, her jaw dropping. “You bet on us fighting?” He shrugs, “I bet on her rocking your world, which she did, and thanks to that? I bought my wife a new rock,” he grins, nudging Danielle. “Show her baby.” Danielle laughs, “You’re being an asshole, babe. Why don’t you just tell her you mis
KINGSTON The last five days have been bittersweet. Spending time in Astral Fang was wonderful, it’s rare that all of us get together that way, my whole Academy friend group made it to check on Jaxon. It’s why I stayed longer in the first place, but missing the look on Aeliana’s face when she saw t
Damien is great company in the car, I get to listen to his choice of music, which happens to be almost identical to mine and my Noah’s, so I enjoy it a lot.
