Mag-log inMila’s POVI stared at Supreme in annoyance, there was something different about him and sonething he clearly wasn’t telling me.The confidence he’d carried in the Underworld was gone.He looked tired now like he was haunted.“What exactly is happening?” I asked.Supreme remained silent for a moment before finally speaking. “The king found a way to escape and it dosen’t have to do with your blood anymore, I was just teasing you”My heart dropped.“What?”“Listen to me” he said and I pinched his arm, he grunted and continued“He hasn’t completely broken the seal.”“Not yet.”“But he’s found a weakness.”I stood immediately.“How?”“I don’t know everything.”Supreme looked toward the forest. “But he discovered that the barrier between the Underworld and your world has weakened.”A cold feeling settled in my stomach.“So that’s why you came here?”He nodded.“The king sent me and several other demons to scout the human realm.”“To find a way out.”I swallowed.“How many of you?”“More th
Mila’s POVThe footsteps came again and it was getting closer.I remained frozen in the river, my heart pounding against my ribs. The peaceful feeling I’d had only moments ago disappeared completely.Someone was coming.I turned toward the trees, squinting through the branches.Nothing. Then a shadow suddenly burst through the bushes.A sword flashed in the moonlight and I gasped.The figure rushed straight toward me, I instinctively ducked.The sword sliced through the air above my head.“What the hell”I stumbled backward, grabbing the towel I’d left on the riverbank.The attacker didn’t stop, well I couldn’t exactly fight naked, I wrapped the towel around me quickly and the psycho swung again.I jumped aside, barely avoiding the blade.My feet slipped on the wet stones, i almost fell into the river.The attacker raised the sword again and I grabbed the nearest branch and used it to block the strike.The impact sent a sharp vibration through my arms.“Who are you?”They didn’t answe
Hansel’s pov Living with my Harem wasn’t so bad, most times we were all happy and a loving family, we were having dinner.Dinner was supposed to be normal but ther was nothing normal about this house.I should have known better the second Caleb’s hand slid under the table and up my thigh. His fingers were warm, and they didn’t stop at the hem of my dress. They kept going upwards, slow and deliberate, until they found the bare skin above my knee and squeezed. Across from me, Conrad watched us with dark eyes and a lazy smirk, swirling the wine in his glass like he already knew exactly how this was going to end. Marcus sat at the head of the table, silent as usual with his posture relaxed, but the gold ring around his irises had already started to brighten. He hadn’t touched his food in five minutes.I tried to keep eating. Tried to pretend the fork in my hand was still useful and I could taste my food. Caleb’s fingers climbed higher. When they brushed the lace of my underwear I su
Mila’s POVI couldn’t stop thinking about the crack in the earth, and the damage that may have happened to it.It was the place where I’d fallen into the Underworld with Bastian and also the place where everything had changed.For days, I’d tried to push the memory of that day aside but now that my powers had returned, I needed to know something.Had the demons been able to escape?Had the crack remained sealed?Or had something happened while we were gone?I needed answers and fast, because that would be the only way to know if we were really safe or not.I decided to talk to my mate and checked for him, I found him in the training yard with Jacob, he was shirtless and doing some excercise with the warriors.I watched him for a while, noticing how his abs flexed and how handsome he looked, like a sculpted god.When he was done, Jacob came to him and they were were going through patrol reports when I approached them.Jacob was doing well so far, I knew he was a good choice for Beta.
Hansel’s povHe’s already got me pinned when the door shuts behind us.My back hits the wall hard enough to knock the air from my lungs, but Marcus doesn’t give me time to catch my breath.His mouth crashes over mine in a hungry, demanding claim, the kind of kiss that says mine without a single word.“Been thinking about this all day since I saw you in my office,” he growls against my lips. One of his hands fists in my hair, tilting my head so he can deepen the kiss. The other shoves my skirt up to my waist. His fingers find the soaked lace panties between my thighs and he rips it to shreds. “Hey” i protest but he only chuckles “Walking around in that little dress, looking like you needed to be fucked, did you wear it for me, Hansel?” He asks I can only nod, already panting. He doesn’t wait for more. Two thick fingers push inside me without warning, stretching, curling, finding that spot that makes my knees buckle. I cry out into his mouth. He swallows the sound and works me h
Hansel’s POVIt seemed the calendar wasn’t such a bad idea, I Today was Marcus’s turn to spend the day with me.I had smiled and nodded then when he reminded at lunch.But now that I stood outside his office, I found myself hesitating.I knocked twice. “Come in.” He sad I pushed the door open and Marcus was sitting behind his desk, surrounded by papers, maps, and several open books.He didn’t even look up. “You know, most people would at least pretend to be excited to see their mate.”He finally raised his head and a smile immediately appeared on his face.“I am excited.”“You don’t look excited.”“I’m working.”“Exactly.”I walked inside and closed the door behind me.He watched as I approached the desk. “What are you doing?”“Reports.”“How exciting.”He rolled his eyes. “You could leave.”I pulled a chair beside him. “Absolutely not.”He laughed quietly and I picked up one of the papers.“What is this?”“Trade reports.”“And this?”“Border reports.”“And this?”“Something I haven’
Mila's pov…I stood there for a moment longer after Knox spoke, the tension between us was still thick enough to choke on.“The investigation has already started,” he finally said, his voice calmer now. “No one leaves the premises without being questioned.”I didn’t respond immediately i just… loo
Knox's POV….The plane landed smoothly, though my stomach had twisted from hours of anticipation. My hands clenched the edge of my seat as Caleb and Conrad guided me through the protocol for the meeting. Every detail mattered every gesture, every word was very important I couldn’t afford to make
Knox's POV….Pain.That was the first thing I felt when I woke up.A dull, throbbing ache behind my eyes, like my skull had been split open and poorly stitched back together.I groaned and shifted slightly and I froze.Something wasn’t right.I opened my eyes slowly and everywhere was blurry before
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
