LOGINHansel’s POVThe innkeeper told us what she could, and now we had a tour guide ready to take us there, he was an old guide ans looked creepy.He said his name was Rowan, for several seconds, none of us moved.Rowan stood in the doorway of the inn, his walking stick resting against the floor, his old eyes fixed on us as though he could see straight through every lie we had ever told.I didn’t like him and it was not because he had done anything wrong but because it seemed he knew too much.And people who knew too much were dangerous.Caleb leaned toward me.“Please tell me we’re not actually going into that forest with him.”Greta elbowed him.“You were the one complaining that we needed a guide.”“I said we needed information, I never said we needed an old man who looks like he has personally buried half the village.”Rowan’s eyes moved toward him.“I heard that Beta.”Caleb immediately straightened up “I said you look very experienced.”Jon snorted and I covered my mouth to hide a la
Elliot’s POV I glanced over my shoulder. Millie was sitting on the floor in the middle of the library, surrounded by books she had no business touching. Henshaw was beside her, he had somehow convinced her that the giant ancient books weren’t toys. She wasn’t listening, she was turning the pages of one anyway. “Millie,” I called. She looked up. “Yes?” “Put the book down.” She hugged it to her chest. “Why?” “Because it’s older than all of us.” She looked at the book and then at me. “Is it important?” “Yes.” “Does it have pictures?” I paused. “No.” “Then it’s boring.” Henshaw laughed and I glared at him. “You’re encouraging her.” “I didn’t say anything.” “You laughed.” “I couldn’t help it.” Millie smiled proudly and returned her attention to the book. I sighed, today was going to be a long day, I walked over and crouched beside her. “Okay how about this? You can look at the books with pictures, but these ones stay on the shelves.” She con
Bastian’s POVThe whispers did not stop, they followed me all the way back to my cell, even after the guards were dead and the blood had dried across my knuckles.We know what you want.I stood in the middle of the cell, breathing heavily.My chest rose and fell.My wolf paced inside my mind.Who are they?“I don’t know.”Then why are you listening to them?“Because they said they know how to get the crown.”My wolf went quiet.That cursed piece of gold was the only reason Mila had come to me in the first place, I looked down at my hands and blood covered my fingers.Three guards had come into my cell laughing, expecting me to kneel because there were three of them and only one of me.They had forgotten something, I once controlled thr darkness before the king put that collar on me and now I reminded them who I was and they were dead.I walked over to the wall and sat down with my back pressed against the cold stone. I looked toward the darkness of my cell.“You said you knew how to
Mila’s POVI woke up before sunrise.I simply lay there with my eyes closed, listening to Knox’s slow breathing beside me.I opened my eyes and the morning light slipped through the curtains.I turned my head and Knox woke up too“Morning little mate” he said I missed him softly “let’s get dressed, we need to continue our search” We got dressed quickly and Sasha and Marie were staying in the room beside ours, we met them outside a few minutes later.Sasha looked tired and Marie looked worse.“Did you two sleep?” I asked.Marie gave me a blank stare. “Not really.”“Why?”“Because…...” they both turned red and I sighed “I don’t even want to know anymore” We made our way downstairs and the Beta who had given us rooms was already waiting.He stood near the entrance with two members of his pack “Good morning.”“Good morning,” I replied.“How did you sleep?”“Well enough.”His eyes moved toward the four of us. “You said yesterday that you’re searching for something.”“The bones of the
Spicy scene ahead, you can skip it nothing Important happens here, just pure smutHenshaw’s POVThe door barely closed before Elliot had me pinned against it, Mille was asleep and we were alone now.His mouth crashed into mine on a deep kiss and my hands grabbed his hips and yanked him closer, grinding our cocks together through the layers of our shorts.“Fuck,” he growled against my lips, already working my belt open with impatient fingers. “Been thinking about this all night.”“Then stop talking and do something about it.”He laughed and shoved my jeans down just far enough to free my cock. His hand wrapped around me immediately and I hissed at the friction and bit his lower lip in retaliation. Elliot just smirked and spit into his palm before stroking me properly, his thumb dragging over the head on every upstroke until I was leaking into his fist.I spun us, slamming his back against the wall hard enough to knock a picture frame. My mouth found his throat, sucking a dark mark
Hansel’s POVI wa sore, my body felt like it was torn into pieces, I remembered the wild night i had and groaned.I sat up slowly and Marcus was still asleep beside me, his arm was thrown across his face, his dark hair completely messed up from sleeping, while Caleb was sprawled across the other side of the room with one leg hanging off the bed.I stared at them in disbelief “How does someone sleep like that?”Caleb didn’t answer obviously because he was asleep.I pushed the blanket away and stood up, the area looked secure, at least for now.I walked toward the window and pulled the curtain aside.The town was already awake, people were walking along the dusty road outside, some carried baskets and others were leading horses toward what looked like a small market. Even from here, I could see the tops of the trees stretching across the horizon, that was where the heart was supposed to be.According to Mila’s vision, the forest was ancient. Silver-gray trees and blue lights and insi
Mila’s POVThe dungeon smelled like damp stone and sweat.The moment they threw me inside the cage, the iron door slammed shut with a finality that echoed far deeper than the sound itself.I let out a fustrated groan and kicked the doors, Bastian was so evil for making me go through this.The momen
Knox’s POV“Call the healer!”My voice tore through the hall, sharp and raw, but it felt like it wasn’t loud enough.Nothing felt loud enough because my mother was dying in front of me.Blood spilled from her lips as she coughed again, her body trembling under my hands. I dropped to my knees beside
Mila's pov…Kreda was draining and annoying, I almost punched her in the face.I reached the palace gates and pushed it open everywhere was dark already except for the torches of fires lining the place. Guards stood at their usual posts, but none of them stopped me as I walked inside.Some nodded
Knox Mercer……. I didn’t want a Luna. That was the truth no one seemed willing to accept. The council chamber was quiet, and I sat in my chair while Conrad and Caleb watched me. Generations of Alphas were carved into the walls, staring down at me like judges waiting for me to fail or slip up.
