My mouth opened but no words came. I’m surprised I didn’t fall out right then and there. I had all intentions on telling him everything, the truth, but he had completely caught me off guard. Of course he smelled Acelin. How could I be so dumb to forget that he had the nose of a canine? He knew. Without me telling him, he knew. I had been so disrespectful and stupid to not even wash the sex off of me before I brought him over here.A dark thought popped in my head; one I didn’t want to believe. Did Acelin do this intentionally? Before he seemed to be accepting and understanding about Adrian being in my life but he was pretty upset about me leaving and he knew I intended to meet with Adrian. Could this be some sick attempt of marking his territory, making sure Adrian knew exactly what we had been doing together? I didn’t want to think that way, but Acelin was very smart and calculated. I found it hard to believe he would not have known Adrian would’ve picked his scent up immediately.

I had a hangover straight from hell the next day. Wine drunk is a different type of drunk. Pair that with crying, and it equals a migraine out of this world. I grabbed a bottle of water and chugged it empty after popping some pain meds in my mouth to help with the excruciating headache, then made my way upstairs to the bathroom. Steam filled the room as I turned the shower on to the hottest temperature I could stand. My head fell back as I adjusted to the heat, allowing the water to touch every part of my body. This is where I got most of my thinking done. One quiet place my mind could focus and find some clarity in the haze. No matter how badly I had been treated in the past, my heart was not cold. I hated knowing how I made Adrian feel, knowing I was the one causing him pain. I had felt that pain before and the last thing I wanted to do was to inflict that on someone else. My eyes welled up before releasing a few tears that ran down my cheeks blending in with the water. The int

Who the hell was this bitch and why was she all over him like that? Did Adrian seriously drive me all this way to make me jealous? Well, if so, it was working, because I was ready to yank her off him by her hair.I crossed my arms instead and he must have sensed how pissed I was because he shot his eyes over to me before quickly sitting her down.She had a confused look on her face and that’s when she finally noticed me.“Oh, so you must be the Zoldeck witch. Let me have a good look at you, then.”My mouth dropped open. What the hell was going on? Why had he brought me here to this stranger that seemed to know a hell of a lot more about me than I did of her? I couldn’t believe he had entrusted my personal business with this woman. Was she one of the wolves that belonged to his pack? Either way, I didn’t really care. I knew he was still upset with me, but that did not give him the right to bring me here without giving me any indication of what was going on and telling this woman my secr

“What is it?” I asked with big eyes looking between Ciel and my bracelet that she still grasped.“It is in fact protected. This bracelet has been spelled by a pretty powerful witch. I am curious as to who that might be. But, regardless, it is as you said, Adrian. When she wears this no vampire will be able to enter her mind or sway her decisions. I notice it’s made of pure silver, though..”She lifted one eyebrow looking at Adrian then down at me. Great even she noticed. I looked off to the side. I already felt pretty shitty enough that I hadn’t caught on to the fact that when Acelin said it would protect me from wolves that also extended to Adrian. But was it seriously that big of a deal? I mean, as long as it didn’t touch him he seemed to be fine. I looked over to Adrian and he was looking at me, but I was unable to read his face. What was he thinking? Had that confirmation set him off all over again? Was he upset with me, did he want to kill Acelin even more now, or was it both of

Something wasn’t right. After driving a little while longer, I started to get confused. I wasn’t completely familiar with Sequoia and the surrounding areas, but I was pretty sure we weren’t heading towards Adrian’s house. It was obvious because we seemed to be in the middle of nowhere. There was a narrow dirt road and a bunch of trees everywhere. I saw a shed but no other houses or any other indication of civilization. Were we in a freaking forest? I sat up in my seat now more aware of my surroundings looking around for and hints of where we might be. I looked down at my phone. No cell service. Of course.Maybe I had read it wrong. Maybe Adrian hadn’t forgiven me and was actually more pissed than I thought and was planning on taking me out here to kill and hide my body. No one would ever find me. My eyes got big and anxiety built in my chest.‘Calm down, Ray.’ I said to myself. I really needed to stop watching so many crime shows. ‘Adrian is trustworthy. He would never hurt me.’ I co

“Adrian, what the hell? When did you do this?”I stepped into the room to get a closer look. The room was a huge luxury suite. On a table across from me was a vase full of flowers and balloons tied to it and a gift box. On the far-right end of the huge bedroom was a his-and-hers walk-in closet. One side was filled with women’s clothes, things that were definitely my style, but I didn’t recognize any of them to be mine. I saw tags hanging on some. Did he go shopping for me?What was going on? It was like this room was prepped for me, for us.“What is this?” I turned to look at him still somewhat shocked. I couldn’t believe he had gone through all of this for me. Once again, he had surprise me. A gnawing feeling in my gut hit me when I realized he had probably planned all this before I told him about Acelin. He had done all of this for me while I was playing around in someone else’s bed.Trinity was right. I really was a bitch.“This is our room,” he said. “Well, it is if you want it

My hands wrung together in my lap as I felt my palms begin to get sweaty. I was nervous. Tonight, we were having dinner with some important people in Adrian’s pack, according to him. ‘Pack.’ I wasn’t sure that I’d ever get use to this terminology and the meaning behind it. Adrian tried to explain who they were, but I couldn’t focus. I absolutely hated situations like this. I just knew I was going to be so awkward knowing there was going eyes on me and feeling like everyone had high expectations. But I was a human. Even if I was part witch, I wasn’t a wolf. I didn’t feel like I belonged. I probably didn’t, and I wondered what they would think of me.I looked down at myself. My dress was pretty. My hair and makeup had come together nicely when I checked. I looked damn good, but I wasn’t feeling this at all. Last night I had hoped we would be able to enjoy some alone time after everything that had happened, but there was way too much excitement going on for that. Back in t

“Impossible!” someone yelled. A man sitting on the far left of me had jumped up. One look from Adrian quickly had him back in his seat. “Are you challenging the words from my mate,” Gentry? The man bowed his head looking down while speaking.“I apologize, Alpha. But no one has heard from the Zoldeck coven in many years. It is well known they no longer exist.”“And yet a Zoldeck witch sits before you. Do you think we would come here presenting this information without having thoroughly vouched it?” Adrian’s tone was stern and deep and dared defiance. The man he called Gentry continued to look down in submission and just nodded accepting what he said.‘Thoroughly checked out.’ Was the blood results that Claudis got and taking me an hour away to go see Ciel, his version of thoroughly checking this out? I mean, I guess I didn’t really know how you would check something like this out anyways. Claudis had enough faith in himself and the test results to believe it so it seemed like that was
