THEODOSA.

The night air slapped my face when we stepped outside.

For three seconds, I thought it might clear my head. Then the alcohol reminded me who was in charge and the cobblestones started moving under my feet.

Nala grabbed my wrist and I held on because the alternative was eating pavement.

The women from the bar flowed through the streets ahead of us. All that silk and bare skin catching moonlight as they laughed and spun and drew everyone along behind them. The crowd followed without que

  • Bound To The Cursed Lycan    57: NOT A GENTLEMAN

    THEODOSA. I refused to flinch. He wanted me to cower. To stammer and blush and prove that I wasn’t serious about this. That I was just some desperate girl who’d crumble the moment he pushed back. I wasn’t going to give him that. “I want my brother released,” I said, keeping my voice steady. “Sent back to Duskmire safely. Unharmed. In exchange, I’ll be yours.” Xahen’s expression didn’t change. He just sat there on his throne, watching me like I was a mildly interesting insect he hadn’t decided whether to crush yet. “Mine,” he repeated. “However you want me. Whenever you want me.” I forced the words out before I could choke on them. “No resistance. No complaints. No attempts to escape.” The silence that followed was suffocating. Then he laughed. It was a low, cruel sound that made my skin crawl. “You expect me to believe that? You, the woman with the same face that’s put a knife in my chest twice, want me to trust that you’ll just… behave?” “I’m not asking you to trust me.”

  • Bound To The Cursed Lycan    56: TO SAVE YOUR BROTHER

    THEODOSA. My hands wouldn’t stop shaking. Nala walked beside me with a pace that said she wasn’t going to slow down no matter how much I dragged my feet. The path toward the palace grounds stretched out ahead of us like a death march. “You wanted this,” Nala said without looking at me. “I know.” “You begged me to arrange it.” “I know.” “So stop walking like you’re headed to your own execution.” I swallowed hard. “This is Xahen we’re talking about.” “Yes. It is.” She finally glanced at me. “And you’re about to offer yourself to him on a silver platter. So maybe pick up the pace before I change my mind about helping you.” I forced my legs to move faster. The palace grounds came into view and my stomach clenched at the sight of it. Guards were posted at every corner, their eyes tracking us as we approached. I tried to keep my breathing steady but my heart was pounding so loud I was sure everyone could hear it. Then a sound split the air. It was massive. A groaning, cracking,

  • Bound To The Cursed Lycan    55: LIKE A WHORE

    XAHEN. Three bottles in and the memories still wouldn’t stay buried. I’d given up on the glass hours ago. Now I was drinking straight from the bottle like some common drunk in a tavern, sitting in the dark of my cabin because the light made my head pound and I didn’t have the energy to care about dignity. Damnation or salvation. Nala’s words kept circling in my skull like vultures waiting for something to die. Three hundred years. Three hundred years of watching women with that face walk into my life and tear it apart. And now the universe was telling me this one might save me? Bullshit. I took another long pull from the bottle. The worst part wasn’t the vision. The worst part was knowing I’d run my mouth to her like some lovesick pup while I was blackout drunk. I didn’t remember everything, but I remembered enough. Enough to know I’d handed her weapons she could use against me whenever she wanted. Stupid. Careless. Weak. My father would have been ashamed. The d

  • Bound To The Cursed Lycan    54: IN DIRTY EXCHANGE

    THEODOSA.Nala stared at me like I'd just sprouted a second head."I'm sorry." She blinked slowly. "Can you repeat that? Because I could have sworn you just asked me to convince Xahen to take you as a sex slave.""I did."She kept staring."Theo." Her voice was careful, like she was talking to someone who'd lost their grip on reality. "Have you completely lost your mind?""Probably." I started pacing again because I couldn't stand still. "But I've been thinking about this for hours and it's the only thing that makes sense.""The only thing that makes sense is offering yourself up as a sex slave to a man who wants you dead?""He doesn't want me dead. Not really." I stopped and faced her. "If he wanted me dead I'd already be dead. He's had a hundred chances to kill me and he hasn't taken any of them."Nala pressed her fingers to her temples like I was giving her a headache. "That doesn't mean he won't. Especially now that he knows about the vision. You could be his damnation, Theo. Do y

  • Bound To The Cursed Lycan    53: IN LIGHT OF INSANE REQUESTS

    THEODOSA.Five hours had passed and I still couldn't think about anything else.Damnation or salvation.Those were the only two options Nala's vision had given.I was either going to save Xahen or destroy him and there was no way to know which one until it happened.And now he knew.I'd been pacing Nala's cabin for so long that I was surprised I hadn't worn a path into the floorboards. Afnie had left hours ago to handle council business and Nala had gone somewhere she refused to tell me about. So I'd been alone with my thoughts and my thoughts had not been kind.I kept circling back to last night and the things Xahen had said while he was too drunk to filter himself. How he'd admitted to seeing my face on every woman he'd tried to fuck. How he'd tracked me through the mate bond like he couldn't help himself. How he'd told me to just kill him already because he was tired of waiting for it.Then I thought about the night I'd snuck into his cabin.How he'd woken with gold eyes and pulled

  • Bound To The Cursed Lycan    52: DEATH SENTENCE

    THEODOSA.I stared at Nala and waited for her to tell me she was joking.She didn't."What do you mean you signed my death sentence?"Nala's smile stayed frozen on her face in that horrible stretched way. "Not here. Too many ears."She dropped a handful of coins on the table and stood up before I could ask anything else. Afnie was already on her feet with her eyes narrowed and her arms crossed."Nala, what did you do?""I'll explain when we're somewhere private." Nala was already moving toward the door. "Come on. Both of you."I looked at Afnie but she seemed just as confused as I was. We followed Nala out of the restaurant and back into the crowded streets of Obsidian.The atmosphere had shifted for me now.Five minutes ago these streets had felt almost normal. Busy and loud and full of people living their lives. Now every face that passed felt like a threat.Every shadow pooling in the corners of buildings made my skin prickle. I kept glancing over my shoulder like I expected Xahen
