Her Two Proud Wolves Chapter 12
Adelia's Point of View"You look beautiful!" Nessa exclaimed and clapped her hands together in excitement.Eyeing myself in the large mirror, I cringed at how much I looked like my old self. "I look like a whore." I ground out and turned away from the image.Nessa's brows furrowed. Mouth opened slightly as she beheld me. "Well, a beautiful whore. Make all the boy whores go whaaa." I perked up an eyebrow at her. "What an odd fucking statement to make." She seemed offended for a second. Held her hand over her heart. "Don't tell me you never watched Princess Diaries. It was a cultural masterpiece," When I didn't respond, she sighed deeply. "Did you grow up beneath a rock or something? What's wrong with you?" I hadn't grown up under a rock. My father just never allowed me to watch TV. Wanted me to practice my piano and dance. How to become a perfect wife. Everything else took second place to him."Whatever. Let's just get going. I don't want to piss off your brother more than I alrea

Adelia's Point of View"The king will have our heads if one of your spies fucks this up, Harold! That's what I mean by that!" The old geezer's voice carried across the room with an echo. I glanced at a tense Siya by my side. Took in the way he held his head up by his chin. The bored expression on his face. But how utterly taut his body was.Although I found their arguments amusing and lapped up the fact that they were freely letting me in on all of this information, what I didn't like was the fact that we were two hours in and no closer to an end."Fuck the king! Let him find out! Phaedra has plans in place that will stop him from coming even close to us!" Another fool snarled.They were arrogant, then. An easy enemy to read and anticipate, seeing as they had no self-control when it came to their tempers. Their egos made their moves whilst rational thought failed them.Once upon a time, I had been much the same."When is this going to be done?" I asked loudly. Remained staring at my

Adelia's Point of View It was stifling to hear him say those words. Made my blood run cold. What kind of a person was he then, if he couldn't even be loyal to the one person he promised to be? Or was he just fed up and looking for a way to get away from her? Either way, this only solidified to me that I needed to escape. Brave the elements with what little insight I already have. "Then why did you bring me here if you knew I was your mate? Knew that she would use that fact against you? Are you dumb or just arrogant?" I asked, voice steely. Killian shied away from Siya as the larger male ground his teeth together. Looked ready to slaughter anyone and anything in sight. I was pressing on a nerve, then. "I had a duty to these people-" "But not to me?" I shrilled back, nostrils flaring. "I don't even know why I thought you would put me first. How stupid, right? I mean, not like I'm your mate or anything." I seethed, feeling more heat rise to my cheeks. By now Killian was shifti

Michael's Point of ViewEveryone was in a frantic state by the time I arrived at Lover's Quirrel. Gone was the coordinated mess I was used to back home. Replaced by people hurrying along and looking like no one had slept for the last week or so."Michael, you made it," Ulrich said, pushing away from the wall he had been leaning up against.He was different. I knew when he changed from being a human into a werewolf, there must have been some visible side effects as well. But this was entirely different than I had envisioned in my mind.His muscles seemed large by far. Stride more confident. Taller, somehow. And he had the air of a predator around him. Made the hairs on the back of my neck stand up straight. It took all of my restraint not to back away from him when he came closer. To not cock the gun at my hip."When you called I thought you were joking," I grumbled back, feeling twenty years older than I truly was. Especially when I looked at Ulrich. More in his prime than he had e

Adelia's Point of ViewTalking about Phaedra and seeing her in person were two very different things. Somehow my brain had put up a wall between the two. As if it didn't associate the thought of the woman with the physical thing."She'll want to see you first," I said to Siya.We were back in his room. Had the door locked, like it might keep her away for longer.Now I truly knew he feared what she was capable of. It painted the best picture of her that anyone has ever had. Showed me just how far she would go to gain power."She's going to cuss me out for being captured." Getting cussed out was better than being whipped or harmed. From the way he spoke about her, it wasn't uncommon for him to be punished physically. Sighing, Siya slid away from the window. Scrubbed a hand over his face."Do you want me to go-""No. You heard Killian. It's risky for us to be around each other so publicly. Someone besides Killian and Nessa is going to put two and two together and then we are fucked."
Her Two Proud Wolves Chapter 17
Adelia's Point of ViewThe concubine was sitting poised at the end of what I could only call a throne room. Draped over the large stuffed chair like a queen dominating her surroundings. Not like a painted traitorous whore.Her cruel smile spread wide the deeper Siya and I walked into the room. Having left Nessa behind in the hall, I almost felt vulnerable under Phaedra's gaze. As if Nessa granted me an extra layer of protection that was now gone to the wind. There were no guards to speak of. Only our footsteps echoed as we went. Siya, to my delight, remained a healthy distance away from me. But had my hands shackled in front of me. To put on a show. When Nessa had suggested it, I balked at the thought. My father had used handcuffs to teach me a lesson every time my hands were idle according to him. I relented, seeing the logic in his thought even though I hated it."Welcome, welcome. Brother, I'm glad to see you are in one piece. Did those barbarians treat you well, at least?" Ph
Her Two Proud Wolves Chapter 18
Adelia's Point of ViewFear slid down my spine. Lodged in my throat, inhibiting my breath.Cold, calculating eyes slid over my face. Slid back over to Siya, assessing as she went.But the male didn't back down. Took up a stronger, wider, stance. His head tilted back a bit more in defiance. "Hurting her would hurt our cause. You are acting rashly, sister. It angers me to think that you would throw away all of my hard work for a few seconds of pleasure on your part." He diverted suspicions effortlessly. Phaedra's eyes softened. A single index finger ran along her bottom lip. "Fine. As always, you're right. I was just wondering how pretty she'd look if someone were to run a knife along her jaw. But as always, you have our mission's best interest at heart," She mused cruelly and slid out of her chair.My heart balked as she approached. Gone was the fury. The anger. All I felt now was an instinct to run. She was no wolf. Rather she was a snake sliding along its belly. When she stopped r
Her Two Proud Wolves Chapter 19
Adelia's Point of ViewNessa basically gave a fuck you to Phaedra. Allowed me to go for another run in the closed-off garden. This time around, only one guard stood watch. Barely glanced at us as my heart skittered in my chest.She wasn't invited to the family dinner like Siya. Instead, she was given the duty of keeping me locked up in my room. A task she failed miserably at. Almost as horribly as she failed at keeping pace beside me.After the third lap around the garden, she tapped out and resigned herself to simply observing me and making comments.I never missed the way her eyes would light up when I passed what I presumed to be the weakest point in the wall. The way she had chosen the furthest spot from it. Or how she tried to look away every time I came close. It was obvious that she wanted me to escape.But something inside my chest wouldn't let me go, despite the lack of people here to stop me.Maybe it was pity. Pity towards the girl who had let me go. Because Phaedra would h
