His Dark Obsession 40. Undeniable Lust
EVANGELINE.I stare in the mirror, towelling my wet hair. The sun that shines through the steamy bathroom window really makes my skin glow and highlights the freckles along my nose and cheeks. Zedkiel’s words return to me, and my heart skips a beat.‘I wouldn’t intentionally hurt you…’I smile faintly, his words basking me in warmth. I’m glad I told him about my nightmares, and I hope he understands that if I do get jumpy or scared, it’s because of those dreams. Everything he had told me last night replays in my mind, and I believe there is a connection between us.The nightmares and his experience with the Shadow Wolf, a description that fit me perfectly was proof of that connection… but are we dangerous to one another? Sure, he had hurt me, but I saw the sincerity in his eyes. He hadn’t meant to.But there is something that niggles at my mind. Last night he hadn’t completed his sentence… there was more to say before he stopped; 'When I step into his life'… at the end of that sentenc
His Dark Obsession 41. Rules
Zedkiel has not said a word since then. He didn’t even spare me a glance and only when we sat down in the front row of seats, did he place his arm around the back of my seat protectively. I also know why.The first two rows were the contestants and I see Octavius Huntington, Celia’s brother has chosen a woman too, Kara Irisian, the niece of the Alpha of the Night Dust Pack and to my surprise, the Alpha’s daughter and Kara’s cousin is sitting by Ragnar’s side.The competition is made up of strong women… and all are of Alpha blood apart from me. Dear Goddess, give me the strength I need…There are other people here to watch and listen as the tournament rules and rounds are explained. I can see Alpha Aeron too and I make sure not to even look at Sinclair, who is sitting right behind me. I can feel his gaze burning into me, but I refuse to give him any of my time, not after what he did last time.“Thank you everyone for attending, I won’t waste much time and we will get right into this.”
His Dark Obsession 42. A Couple of Gifts
EVANGELINE.Hours have passed, but I can’t get the rule book out of my head…Consummate the marriage before the tournament? How!All I can think of is everything that can go wrong if we do that, but without it… it means we can’t even participate…Urgh!Just think Evangeline, if you weren’t an omega, you would have to be marked too. But the downside is, once the rest of the couples all mark one another until they go into heat, no one will even know if they are mated, unlike me… I have a feeling that rule was put there because I am unable to be marked due to being wolfless.I shudder at the possibilities of what could go wrong; it isn’t that Zedkiel is that bad… but this life, this rank, it’s all a façade...I sigh heavily, running my fingers along the spines of the leatherbound books that line the shelves in the royal library. I don’t even know what I’m looking for, but I need something to keep my mind off everything.I had spent two hours with Alistair, and I am exhausted. He gave me
His Dark Obsession 43. Perfect for Each Other
EVANGELINE.It is the following night and I have just gotten dressed in a pale pink satin off-shoulder dress that Zedkiel has picked out for me; I was surprised at his choice considering he preferred dark colours… but I didn’t argue, and when he himself put on grey pants and a white shirt, I think we matched perfectly. I don’t know how I feel about going back to the Welhaven Mansion… The wedding is being held in the mansion gardens.We still haven’t decided on the two questions to ask the Oracle. We just need to think very carefully before we do.Zedkiel and I are sitting in the back of the sleek back car and with every passing minute, my nervousness is growing. The king and queen are also attending the celebration. I am a little surprised that not all the royals were, but after all, their importance is far greater. But having the king and queen come is probably a great honour in itself. It just reminds me that the Lycans are far above the rest of the Alphas, just as Zedkiel is above
His Dark Obsession 44. Clarity
ZEDKIEL.I smirk internally as we somehow make it to my apartment in town, it’s closer and I don’t think I would have made it to the castle. It had taken my all not to rip that dress off her in the car and fuck her right there.I fucking want her, but at the same time, I know how this goes… The bloodshed when my Lycan takes over… Unlike the rest of my siblings, mine has never spoken to me. I just feel his rage and anger that always seems to bubble within me. I’m not sure if it’s because I’m not a pure blood like them but instead part vampire… But his anger is something I can’t control… When he wants blood, he gets it.The moment I tug her through the door, I slam it shut and push her up against it, claiming her lips in another sizzling hot kiss. Her sweet intoxicating taste makes me want to devour her. Her heart is pounding, and I feel a powerful urge of possessiveness overcome me. My eyes flash and I force myself back… just in case… I need to make sure things don’t go wrong, and that
His Dark Obsession 45. Another Side
EVANGELINE.The pain and pleasure combined make me feel as if I’m in a haze of ecstasy. He’s huge and I feel so full. This feeling is unexplainable and every time he drives into me, he hits something inside of me that makes me cry out in blissful pleasure. It feels incredible.I bite my lip, my back arched as I crave every part of him to touch me. I look at him, but he’s not looked at me in a while… is he disgusted? Is he regretting it? He has his face turned away, pressed against my shoulder, but not once does he look at me. I try to push my insecurity away, hugging him tightly. I don’t know what we are, or where we are emotionally, but the one thing I do know is, for now, we are married, and we are consummating our marriage for this tournament.Suddenly I feel his aura surge around him, his entire body tenses and I bite my lip when he speeds up, the burning pain is stronger as he fucks me, he’s struggling, and I try to turn my head to the pillow just in case, but his hand is under i
His Dark Obsession 46*** First Round
ZEDKIEL. This feels good… I wrap my arms tighter around the woman I’m holding in my arms, and she laughs softly, a sound that sounds oddly familiar… “I missed you.” She whispers, placing her hand over mine and guiding it to her breast. “Did you miss me? My Prince?” I frown slightly, my eyes feeling too heavy to open. Missed me? Who is she? Who cares… As long as I can enjoy her… I squeeze her breast, placing soft kisses along her neck. Her intoxicating scent lulling me into a sense of security. A soft moan escapes her and then a shriek makes my eyes fly open, and I see Evangeline jump from the bed, dragging the duvet with her. Fuck, was I just feeling her up in her sleep? I don’t let any emotion show on my face as she stares at me with wide eyes, her heart thumping and her cheeks flush a gorgeous shade of pink. “What are you doing?” She asks with a frown. “Sleeping.” I say, placing my arms under my head. Sleeping after sex is pretty neat, rather than waking up to a dead body s
His Dark Obsession 47. An Unexpected Trial
EVANGELINE. One minute I was looking down at Zedkiel at the table and the next we were being whisked away. Apparently, our first round was meant to start simultaneously, or so we thought. “What is this?” Maryka asks holding up the envelope in her hand. We were each given one; they are identical aside from the name on it. Mine reads ‘Zedkiel’ in gorgeous gold embossed writing. “Well, this is part of your first test.” Jean says. “Let’s say you are the queen and this city is under attack, and you are most likely going to be kidnapped or killed. Now, to save your people, you have the chance to leave your Alpha a message. Where will you put it, knowing that time is short, and he must find it before anyone else?” “Is this part of our test?” Celia asks, frowning. “Yes, it is. It’s a good chance to display how in touch with your Alpha you are.” Jean replies in a clipped tone. Celia looks down. “Then that’s surely unfair. Some of us have been married for far longer-” “There is no place
