I was exhausted, but sleep eluded me. My mind continued to replay the conversation with Katie.

Had he really been with her?

I groaned as I pushed the thought away again. I didn't understand why it mattered. Worse, I couldn’t understand why I felt the insane urge to find Andre and demand that he not see her again. It was crazy, insane.

I had been so deep in thought, I didn’t realize I wasn’t alone. The darkness was thick around me when a hand suddenly covered my mouth. A weight pressed on me as my wrists were grabbed by a large, rough hand. Terror froze my heart when I peered up into silver eyes. My eyes widened as they adjusted to the darkness, seeing the identity of my attacker…Garridan.

I inhaled sharply, wishing I was having another nightmare, knowing I wasn’t. I twisted my body, but he rested his weight upon me even more.

“I told you I’d be back for you, Aurora,” he whispered in a harsh voice. “I didn't want to do it this way, but your father insists. I must do what he tells me.”

  • Beckoned   Chapter Nineteen/ Conversation

    I sat in the limousine beside Andre, my hands clasped on my lap as we drove toward the hotel where the reception would be held. I shifted in my seat as I bit my bottom lip and glanced out the window, afraid to speak first.I didn’t know why I was so shy with him now. Perhaps it was because I had just received my first kiss…or maybe it was because I was still not used to his presence. Either way, it left us in total silence.I glanced down at my hands, squeezing them while trying to think of something to say, finding nothing. Finally, Andre’s rich, beautiful laughter echoed through the limo, causing me to jump.I narrowed my eyes at him. “What are you laughing about?” I asked, tilting my head. There was fear he was laughing at me.It took a moment before he answered. When he did, he was almost breathless. “You scared me when you didn’t say ‘I do’ right away,” he said, still chuckling. I sighed, relieved. “I thought you were going to run.”I chewed on my lip for a moment, wondering how h

  • Beckoned   Chapter Eighteen/ Wedding Bells

    Everything was surreal as I stood in the lobby of the church. The arched double doors opened, my flower girls and bridesmaids making their way down the aisle. Mirella glanced back at me and grinned just before walking down with Marco. I trembled as I grasped Gavriel’s arm, waiting just out of sight. “It’s okay,” Gavriel whispered, smiling as his grip on my hand tightened. “It isn’t as bad as it seems. It gets better.”I frowned, then smiled. “Was it horrible with Sophia at first?”He laughed. “Yes. I thought she hated me. Eventually, we became friends and fell in love.”“You really do love each other, don’t you?” I asked, gazing up into his face.His eyes softened, his love for her undeniable. “With everything in me.” He glanced down at me, smiling. “She makes me a better man.”I studied him as he led me to stand in front of the double doors, which someone had closed again. The preacher’s booming voice came to me, causing me to jump.“Everyone, please stand for the arrival of the bri

  • Beckoned   Chapter Seventeen/ Miracle Worker

    As Mirella promised, I didn’t have to do anything. She curled my hair, piling it high on my head, then did my make-up. I was relaxed. Because of her constant chatter, I felt excited. I could almost pretend I was getting married because of love, not because of an agreement made shortly after I learned to walk.Mirella finished with my make-up and hair but wouldn’t let me look in the mirror yet. Then she took my hand and helped me step into the dress, which lay puddled on the floor. She pulled it up and I slipped my arms through the small white straps attached to the bodice. It seemed to take forever for her to fasten the buttons along the back.Once done, she turned me to face her, then clapped. “You will not believe how beautiful you are!”I shook my head. “I’m sure you’re just being kind.”She rolled her eyes. “Fine. See for yourself. However, I want you to know your lack of faith in me is hurtful and mean. I’ll expect a full apology.”I laughed. “It’s not a lack of faith in you, Mire

  • Beckoned   Chapter Sixteen/Wedding Morning

    As I slept that night, the wolf who had attacked Garridan invaded my dreams. But unlike my other dreams, these weren’t frightening. I felt protected…like the wolf was my guardian and he would appear if any form of danger presented itself.The dreams continued through the night, expelling all nightmares. When I woke, the image of the wolf’s eyes stayed in my mind, haunting me in a way that made me feel safer than I had since arriving in Timbly Mountain. I blinked, still lying in my bed as I thought of the dream, wondering what it meant.I had only been awake a few moments before Mirella came bursting through my bedroom door without knocking, my wedding dress draped over her arm. I glanced toward the window and groaned. It wasn’t even light out yet and I had planned to sleep a little longer.“Really?” I asked as I stared at her wrinkling my nose in annoyance. “Can’t the sun at least have a chance to rise before you burst into my room? It’s still dark outside.”“No,” she said with a wide

  • Beckoned   Chapter Fourteen-Bridal Shower

    After a day passed and nothing happened, I was more on edge. I realized the calm would end at some point and something would happen and when it did, it would be bad. I really didn’t believe my father had given up or Garridan had forgotten me simply because I had kneed him in the groin. Still, everyone else seemed to go on with the wedding festivities, as if my father and his family were not a threat.My dress had arrived. Miraculously, it was a perfect fit. I was relieved to see it was the one Sophia and my mother had agreed upon. Although I would not admit it to them, I liked it, too. The church had already been chosen, as had the venue where the reception would take place. Everything seemed to be coming together the way my mother and Sophia had planned. It was working out so perfectly, it felt like the calm before the storm.As the time for the wedding approached, dread seemed to seep further into my bones. If anything were going to happen, I knew it would happen soon. Ev
