Fated to my One Night Stand Chapter One Hundred and Eighteen: All Hail Axel Edgewood, The King
~Axel’s POV~“Start talking.”The head warrior standing across from me was older than most of the men I commanded. Grey threaded through his hair at the temples, his posture was rigid with the discipline of decades, and his face carried the specific expression of a man who had failed at the one thing he had been put on this earth to do and knew it.“They came in the early hours, Alpha Edgewood.” His voice was steady but I could hear the fractures underneath it. “Between three and four in the morning. Through the eastern perimeter.”“How many?”“We counted twelve. Possibly more. They moved in coordinated units. Two to disable the perimeter wards. Four to neutralize the eastern guard rotation. The rest went directly for the King’s chambers.”“Directly.” I repeated the word and let it sit in the air. “Which means they knew the layout.”“Yes, Alpha.”“Which means someone told them.”He did not answer that. His jaw tightened.I took a step forward. “How did twelve wolves get through reinfo
Fated to my One Night Stand Chapter One Hundred and Sixteen: One Day When I Am Big and Stronggggg
~Amber’s POV~“One day when I am big and stroonngggg.” I drew the words out in the singing tone and gestured with my hands, flexing arms that had nothing on them worth flexing, tiny muscles that did not exist yet no matter how hard I squeezed.My mother picked it up without missing a beat. “You will be a Queennnn.”I burst out laughing and threw myself forward onto her because that was what I always did when she made me laugh, just launched myself at her like she was the safest place in the world.Because she was.But this time she winced.It was small. A tightening around her eyes, a breath that caught halfway through, and anyone else might have missed it but I did not miss things when it came to her. I had stopped missing things months ago.The smile fell off my face immediately.“I am sorry.” I scrambled backward. “I am sorry, where did I hurt you? I did not mean to hit you so hard and—”“Amber.” She cut through the panic with a gentle smile that sat on her face like it belonged th
Fated to my One Night Stand Chapter One Hundred and Fifteen: The Day The King Fell
~Amber’s POV~Time was supposed to move slowly when it was fixated upon.But that was not what happened in my case. Because after that day in the office when I had looked into Axel Edgewood’s eyes and watched the blankness behind them echo louder than his words ever could, after I had felt every good moment between us obliterate into nothingness inside my chest, the days had blurred together.And in what felt like a blink, a total of one hundred and twenty two days had passed.I knew the exact number because I had spent every single one of them ticking it off. Counting down to the day I would never have to see Axel Edgewood again if it were to be by my will.“You get a kiss if you can guess where we are going after this.”Rosella’s voice broke through my thoughts and I looked up, meeting her cheeky grin from across the table.I rolled my eyes and realized that if I was given a penny for each time this woman made me do that, I would rival Axel’s net worth by now.“I told you to stop fl
Fated to my One Night Stand Chapter One Hundred and Fourteen: The Audacity of This Man
~Amber’s POV~It had played in my head over and over on the walk here and as forward as it would make me look, especially after the conversation I had just had with my father, one of the scenarios I had run through ended with the clothes I had thrown together in a haste to get here on the floor of this office.And I knew it was wrong to even consider it after what I had seen him do this morning. Even though my father had told me to stay out of it. But I had to factor everything in. Every angle. Every possible outcome.So there was nothing he could say that would—“No.”One word. Two letters.And it surprised me so much that I physically almost flinched from it.Had he just said—“No.” He said it again, taking the rest of the thought right out of my head.I blinked. “Excuse me?”“Do you want me to say it a third time?”In between when I had left my father and when I had gotten here, I had done something I should have done a long time ago. Somewhere during the walk, I had come up with a
Fated to my One Night Stand Chapter One Hundred and Thirteen: Get It Over With
~Axel’s POV~I was not one for this and I did not think I would ever need to be, but seriously I was on the verge of gesturing with my whole body and saying from “where to where now?”But I did not do that.Instead I took him in with more focus than before and decided that I was done with that line of conversation entirely. So I pushed my aura out, letting him feel exactly what I was communicating without needing a single word, and I watched the unease flicker in his eyes again.This time it stayed.“Enough time has been wasted on irrelevant things.” I let my voice settle into something that left no room for whatever he had been doing for the last several minutes. “Like I said before. Sit down.”The smile had completely left his face. He sat down in the chair across from me and I got straight into it.“Thankfully, you being a know it all does have one advantage. Because yes, I asked for you to be found and brought here because I want something. And you owe me your life.” I held his ga
Fated to my One Night Stand Chapter One Hundred and Twelve: Timothy Was Annoyingly Hard to Intimidate
~Axel’s POV~I could not stop pacing.Back and forth across the length of my office, the same stretch of floor, the same number of steps, the same dead end where I had to turn around and do it all over again because my brain would not stop running and my body needed to match it.What had happened?When had I done it?Why could I not remember doing it?I replayed everything. The corridor. My mother. The suitcase. Walking away. The car. The accident. The crows. Cassandra. The child. Then standing right back where I started with blood on my hands and no memory of the space in between.I replayed it again and again and again. But I ended up with nothing over and over because every time I reached for the gap, the place where the answer should be, I came up completely blank. Like reaching into a drawer I knew had something in it and finding it empty every single time.I ran a hand through my hair in frustration and pulled at it harder than I needed to when a knock broke through it.I stop
Fated to my One Night Stand Chapter Seventy One: White Roses
~Axel’s POV~ ‘Axel Edgewood, what did you do to my daughter?’The surprise of it, the sudden intrusion into my mind, the King’s voice cutting through my thoughts without warning stopped me mid-motion.Because of it, I almost dropped Cleopatra right onto my bed instead of the careful placement I ha
Fated to my One Night Stand Chapter Sixty Six: The Butter in the Sock Finally Had a Purpose
~Amber’s POV~I didn’t know what I expected but it wasn’t an answer. Probably something along the lines of him telling me to keep quiet until we reached wherever it was we were going, that it was none of my business, that I should stay out of family matters.But he did answer.“Yes.” He paused, the
Fated to my One Night Stand Chapter Sixty Five: Reads Like Heartbreak
~Amber’s POV~Unfortunately… he was right.But more specifically, he was right because I looked worse than a beast. My hair was tangled into what could only be described as a bird’s nest on top of my head, mascara smudged under my eyes, and was that… dried spit at the corner of my mouth?I didn’t
Fated to my One Night Stand Chapter Sixty Four: "I'm Sorry I Was Ever Born."
~Axel’s POV~‘Come on, Axel, it’s one in the afternoon the next day.’‘I am well aware of that,’ I answered simply into the psychic link between Zane and me.His groan followed, as expected.‘I have apologized over and over even though none of this was my fault. I did try to stop you before you mar
