It was probably his idea of both showing that he accepted my choice, and getting just a little revenge at the same time. I grinned back at him. I was going to make him dance at my b
ClaraRonan and I returned to the werewolf castle to find it in a state of celebration. Someone passed us both goblets of wine without even checking who we were. I saw a glint of mischief in Ronan’s eyes.“Just because they’re lax with security doesn’t mean Marcus will let you get away with anything
I stepped out from behind the curtain I had thought might hide us. Ronan followed close on my heels.“Well. You two are an unlikely pair of killers, aren’t you?” the vampire said. He laughed at his own joke. The sound filled the throne room and the shadows shivered.The vampire focused on Ronan.“Yo

Clara The next few days were very busy for me. I had to split my free time evenly between Ronan and Prince Marcus. I would rather have spent all my time with Ronan and avoided Marcus entirely, but that would not have been fair. I knew my wolf longed for Marcus, but I wanted nothing to do with th
Gideon Marcus, Nora, and I left the castle under cover of the darkness. We did not want to alert anyone to our plan. If we succeeded, I was sure Father would forgive us. It was not unusual for a wolf, even a prince, to break a few rules to reach their fated mate. For Nora and Marcus’ sakes, I di
“No, she’s afraid to come back home,” Nora said. “I suppose she must be,” I said. Well, it was better she believe her friend was a coward rather than a traitor. “What do we do?” Nora asked. “I don’t know,” I admitted. “I know that I would not be welcomed back there.
