~Amber’s POV~

I played with my fingers absently, twisting them together in my lap, pulling at the hem of his shirt that I was still wearing, anything to keep my hands occupied while my eyes stayed focused on the blurring roads outside the window.

Because I didn’t want them to focus on the last threat playing over and over in my head.

That didn’t let the food digest even though it tasted the exact same it smelled, made it feel like it was still lodged in my throat minutes later after getting in

  • Fated to my One Night Stand   Chapter Eighty Two: Cold and Final

    ~Amber’s POV~ “Dearly beloved, we are gathered here today to witness the union between two special people—Axel Edgewood, Alpha of one of the most prominent packs in the entire Realm, and Amber Crystabel Moon, daughter of the King, Princess of the Realm and heir to the throne.”Well then.In his face.They might have said his name first, but my introduction was longer, more titles, more weight, and I knew he must have seen the thought play out across my face because his eyes narrowed slightly from where he stood across from me.But I ignored it, kept my expression neutral, turned my attention back to the officiant standing between us.The grand hall was packed, thousands of people, Alphas and Lunas and nobles from across the Realm, all of them watching, all of them waiting to witness this historic union between the Palace and the Edgewood pack.I caught my father’s eye in the front row, saw him beaming with pride, his expression so full of warmth and genuine happiness that something

  • Fated to my One Night Stand   Chapter Eighty One: I Can't Wait For You To Drop Dead

    ~Axel’s POV~ I had been very skeptical about the theory that had formed after the day that I became the recipient of two rounds of vomit, courtesy of the woman who was meant to be the most proper person in the Realm.That when Amber Moon was created, a needle had been placed into her head and every ounce of her sense had been extracted, leaving her to be sent into the world completely empty of rational thought.It had been too much of a dramatic conclusion, too harsh even by my standards, which was why I hadn’t decided if it was actually true.But this had just cemented it.This moment right here, standing in the doorway of her room with her father beside me, his words still hanging in the air like a death sentence, had just confirmed beyond any doubt that Amber Moon had absolutely no sense whatsoever.“Amber?” King Roland’s voice cut through the silence that had followed his question then he turned to me. “Axel?”That was what it took for me to snap my attention away from the glare

  • Fated to my One Night Stand   Chapter Eighty: Walked In on the Wrong Sentence

    ~Amber’s POV~ I had existed for twenty-three years.And admittedly, for the first twenty years, the universe which I liked to believe was linked to the Moon Goddess had been kind to me.But for the last three years, ever since the moment I set my eyes on Ian, and not to sound ungrateful but the universe had taken that moment to decide that it was going to antagonize me.I mean, it was there when it happened. It could have stopped me by making me go blind or making him invisible or literally anything that would have prevented me from falling for someone who would humiliate me three years later, but did it?No.I had proceeded to fool myself for three years, holding onto feelings that were never going to be returned, only to be privately and publicly humiliated. And then, finally, finally, when I thought things couldn’t get worse, the universe threw the final act of cruelty on me when it and the Moon Goddess made Axel Edgewood my mate.Axel Edgewood.Of all the wolves in the Realm, o

  • Fated to my One Night Stand   Chapter Seventy Nine: Permanently

    ~Amber’s POV~ We are going to fall in love.I would have laughed, would have kept laughing if the exhaustion hadn’t settled back in the moment I stepped into my room.I kicked off my shoes, let them fall wherever they landed, was about to throw myself face-first into bed because there were still six days left and I could come up with a solution during that time, no doubt, after I just…My body took the thought and made to execute it.I reached for the covers, pulled them back.And they exploded upward.The scream that tore out of my lips was immediate, instinctive, cutting through a voice yelling “SURPRISE!”Roxanne bared her teeth inside me, snarling, ready to attack, claws pushing forward as my brain tried to process what was happening, tried to catch up to the shock flooding my system.“AMBER, IT’S ME! IT’S ME!” The voice came again, familiar, cutting through my panic. “STOP SCREAMING!”My eyes finally registered what I was seeing.Timothy.Timothy was in my bed.Had been UNDER my

And well, he has been really mean to me too.” She pause

    ~Amber’s POV~ Capitalize on the fact that he left you all alone in a strange place where absolutely anything could have happened to you.That is your defense.And that was exactly what I held on to as I made my way downstairs, unfortunately in his shirt because there wasn't anything else to wear, the fabric hanging huge on my frame, the scent of him wrapped around me like a second skin I couldn't escape.Only for the defense to completely disappear the moment I saw his face.He was standing in the kitchen, back to me initially, but the second my foot hit the bottom step he turned.Our eyes met.I froze completely on the staircase, one hand still gripping the railing, my breath catching in my throat at what I saw in his expression.He held my eyes for exactly two seconds.I counted because time seemed to slow down, stretch out, make those two seconds feel like an eternity before he broke contact and spoke."Take your seat."The words came out flat, emotionless, but there was something
