Liliana’s POV

The contact is electric, overwhelming. It overshadows my shock in an instant.

My hands find the front of his black shirt of their own accord, fingers curling into the fabric as I answer him without hesitation. Desire floods through the bond between us, mixing until I can no longer tell where mine ends and his begins.

He walks me backward until my shoulders meet the wall. The cool wall presses against my back while the heat of his body brands my front. When I gasp into his mouth he

  • CHOSEN BY RUIN   Raw Madness

    Liliana’s POVI no longer know what I am doing. The moment Xaden kissed me earlier, control had slipped from my body like water through open fingers. Now, every inch of me pulses with a wild, aching need that feels almost violent in its intensity. My skin is too tight. My blood runs too hot. The residual steam from the shower still curls around us, carrying the scent of his skin and my own arousal until the air itself feels charged.Xaden’s hands slide to the back of my bra. He works the clasp open with deliberate slowness, as though he has all the time in the world and intends to use every second of it. The soaked fabric falls away and my breasts spill free, firm and heavy, my nipples already tight and aching from the cool water that still drips from my skin. I should feel embarrassed- I have scars that are yet to fade entirely on my skin, but instead- I long for his hands on me again. His eyes have gone nearly black as they lock on my body, then suddenly, they flash a sudden,

    Liliana’s POVThe contact is electric, overwhelming. It overshadows my shock in an instant.My hands find the front of his black shirt of their own accord, fingers curling into the fabric as I answer him without hesitation. Desire floods through the bond between us, mixing until I can no longer tell where mine ends and his begins.He walks me backward until my shoulders meet the wall. The cool wall presses against my back while the heat of his body brands my front. When I gasp into his mouth he breaks the kiss just long enough to speak against my lips, voice rough.“Fuck. You taste like addiction.”Then he is kissing me again, deeper this time. I am so damned. Xaden is kissing me like he needs me to breathe, and I find myself returning the favor even though I’m unable to match his energy.I’m a mess. He’s messing up with my mind, my body, and soul. I can’t get enough even as I try to feel guilty about letting this happen.His mouth trails down the column of my throat, finding a sensit

  • CHOSEN BY RUIN   You Don’t Deserve Her

    Liliana’s POVI go still, my heart hammering against my ribs the moment Xaden steps into view. His expression is far too calm for the storm he always seems to stir inside me whenever he surfaces. The air has suddenly changed around us, thick with the residual tension from the hall and the quiet fury that never quite leaves his blue eyes.Darian’s arm loosens from around me. He turns slowly to face Xaden. “What exactly do you mean by that, twin brother?” He asks, his voice edged with challenge. Xaden’s gaze doesn’t waver as he repeats himself. “I said Hannah can protect herself.”Darian lets out a sharp scoff that echoes off the stone walls. “Worry about Rhea, Xaden. Stay out of whatever exists between me and Hannah.”Xaden takes a single step forward. The movement feels predatory. His eyes flick to me for the briefest second before locking onto Darian again. “Is that so?” His voice is low, almost conversational, yet every word is threatening. “Last time I checked, you don’t even

  • CHOSEN BY RUIN   Caught In Between

    Liliana’s POVWe all go silent as Darian approaches, his expression hard to decipher.He stops right before us and lets his gaze wander, then stops on me briefly before shifting to Liam.“Is anything wrong?” He asks, curiosity in his gaze as his eyes narrow.Liam straightens, his expression giving nothing away as well. “I’m just having a little conversation with my friend here.” He gestures lazily at me, like I’m nothing more than a passing distraction. Then his lips curl slightly. “I’m glad you weren’t killed, Ann. Next time, stay away from trouble.”That… doesn’t sound convincing. Darian would surely ask questions. I don’t doubt it.Liam gestures to Enya, who had been silent since Darian emerged. “Let’s go, Enya. We have things to do.”Enya’s white eyes linger on me for a second before forcing her gaze away. She doesn’t acknowledge Darian as she leaves with Liam.I feel heavy the moment it remains just me and Darian.The air itself seems to press down on me.I slowly shift my gaze a

    “How far into my mind did you get?” Enya asks me, her hand tightening around my arm in a vicious manner that makes me panic silently.Her white eyes bore into mine, sharp and unsettling, like she’s trying to pull the answer out of me.“Stop it, Enya.” Liam interrupts.Enya turns her head slowly to look at him and I use that opportunity to snatch my arm from her hold. “You know already. Don’t you? Why didn’t you report her?” She queries Liam.Liam’s jaw clenches, the muscle ticking visibly. “You won’t report her too.”Enya laughs mildly, but there’s nothing soft about the sound. “I have no reason not to. Perhaps she saw something when she read my mind.” Her gaze flickers back to me. “She’s risky if kept alive.”My breathing labored.Liam steps between us, his voice lowering. “She won’t speak. Not if she doesn’t want her identity to be revealed. She will be executed without doubts.”His hazel eyes move to me, pinning me in place.And I feel it. The impending danger that’s bound to com

  • CHOSEN BY RUIN   Constant Hell

    Liliana’s POVI gasp awake.Air rushes into my lungs like I’ve been drowning, my chest rising and falling too fast as my eyes snap open. For a second, everything feels disoriented and blurry—and then I realize where I am.The healers’ wing.Who brought me here? My body stiffens as I push myself up slightly, expecting pain, weakness… something. But there’s none of that crushing exhaustion from before. The hunger gnawing at me is faint now, almost manageable. Only my tongue feels bitter, dry against the roof of my mouth.I could feel it. I’ve been mended.I inhale slowly as the thought of one person drifts through my mind naturally.Xaden.His scent lingers here, wrapping around me like a second skin. But he isn’t here. Was he…here?My mind drags itself back to the hall, to everything that happened, and my body goes cold.How did Xaden find another wrist chain?My brows knit together in confusion. My thoughts feel tangled. Is the one he showed them mine? And the one in Imogene’s hand s
