Dove pov

With damp palms, I risk a glance inward.

A long corridor sweeps into the residence, dampened by dim shadows. Claude has seemingly vanished, while I stand dumbly at the entrance.

This is what I came for.

The door clicks closed behind me once I step inside. This is clearly a servants access way, which eases my nerves a touch. I stride downward, following the music and voices.

The music practically melts in my ears, a rich and sultry melody unlike anything I've heard before.There is music

    Dove pov In one smooth thrust, he's inside me all of the way. It was only a few weeks ago that he was having to work himself inside me slowly, trying not to hurt me. Now, he knows what I can handle.I moan, my eyes closing instinctively so I can feel every inch of pleasure he is affording me. He quickly jostles my head with his hand, tugging my attention back on him."Move in with me," he says softly, withdrawing all the way before thrusting into me again.I reach my hands up to his shoulders, digging my fingers into the muscle there."Varian..."He dips his head to pepper my face with kisses until my skin is damp. All while he gently presses in and out of me, holding my pleasure hostage, everything remain securely in his control."Move in with me, and you won't even have to get out of bed to have this." He thrusts particularly deep, forcing a every day, multiple times a day."The thought of that almost makes me climax. His breathing turns uneven as I clench around him, unable to hel

    Dove povI immediately rush at him."Are you okay, are you hurt?" I grab him, running my hand along his dampened, grimy skin. I can't see any wounds or injuries, but who knows what could be going on under his clothing.He looks at me, his usually warm brown eyes almost black. They are so wide, so frightened, having seen something terrible."I don't...know.""Come in here, you look exhausted." I or perhaps trembling. Either way, I don't think it is the cold causing it."I'll get him some water," Varian exclaims, rushing into the kitchen."I haven't slept," Dev says vacantly as we sit together on the couch. I pull his coat off his shoulders, feeling the grittiness of dirt under my fingertips.My relief at having my friend returned safely is dimmed knowing he's clearly been through a lot, and is practically catatonic because of it."Where were you? What happened?" I take his hands into mine. His fingers are terribly cold."He took me," he whispers."Took you? Who?""Kalin."I draw in a b

    Dove povI tell Varian everything.Him and Ida patiently listen as I run through the events of the evening, although I skip the part where Matthias kissed me. Varian is angry enough that I risked going there — I figure I better not poke the slumbering beast within him.It's clear that my decision to go to Matthias for answers has upset him, but he pushes it aside to ensure I'm okay.The moment I finish explaining the story, a wave of exhaustion from my many days of not sleeping strikes me. I fall asleep in Varian's arms as he carries me upstairs, and don't wake until the next afternoon.The moment I wake, I'm greeted by Varian with his brows furrowed and his eyes heavy with worry. He sits while I eat in bed, his thumbnail between his teeth.I know I shouldn't have been impulsive, but when it comes to Dev, there isn't much I don't want to do.After I've eaten, I fall back into another deep slumber. When I wake next, Varian's room is dark, but he is still there, sitting on a chair lookin

    Dove povOh shit."No..." I say quickly.Matthias angles his head, suspicion and anger intermingling on his face. He definitely hasn't heard the rumours, which means they haven't reached this pack yet. That, or someone close to him knows that their Alpha wouldn't be pleased to learn this information."Dove, tell me Varian isn't your mate." His voice is so quiet I almost miss it. There is no mistaking his rage though. A blue vein has suddenly become visible on the left side of his forehead."No, of course he's not," I bluster. "A rumour is going around that he is, and I figured you might have heard about it."His eyes narrow. "Why would that rumour go around?""Someone found out about the mark he left on me, and has assumed it is because him and I are mated. They are wrong, though," I explain quickly, almost stumbling over my words in my desperation to get them out.I hope he is buying this. It's clear now that he didn't hear the rumour, and Dev isn't here. Now, I need to concentrate on

    Dove povI sit on my couch, chewing on what little is left of my thumbnail.I barely know what time it is. The sun came up a while ago, the cool melding into warmth. I haven't bothered to sleep, especially with messengers coming in and out of this house, bringing me new information.As soon as I realised what may have happened to Dev, I went straight to Varian, but he already left yesterday to travel to a nearby city for business. He's already on his way back to me.Something has happened to Dev. I know it...The front door slams open suddenly, the sound so loud I gasp. My sister rushes in, her expression stricken, followed by her wife."We came as soon as we got your message." Eden reaches for me as I stand, enveloping me in a hug.I nestle my face into her shoulder, emotion I've been pressing down rushing suddenly to the surface. I've been so concerned with covering all my bases that I haven't stopped to think about what it truly means for my friend to be missing.Every part of me is

    Dove povI wake to the scent of Varian everywhere.Stretching my limbs out, I yawn, turning my head to see my mate stirring next to me.Despite having gone to bed so late after the ball, I feel surprisingly refreshed. The moment I slipped into bed and melted into Varian's arms, I fell asleep quickly.I smile gently as I watch him wake, warm rays of sunlight passing drowsily across his face. He's so soft and dozy when he wakes, his expression slack and unworried.I wish he could be like that all the time,without the burden of being Alpha on his shoulders."Morning," I whisper hoarsely.He turns his head to face me, dark hair all soft and messy against his face. I roll onto my side, so I can admire him closer."Sleep well?" His voice is rough and unused."That's the best I've slept in a long time," I admit. I can still feel the vague pull of fatigue, but only because it was already nearing on dawn by the time I closed my eyes. Now, I estimate it's close to midday. Thankfully, no one has

She tugs her coat off, bracing it on the hook next to mine before she plucks her boots off her feet."Hey Do

    Dove Pov"Right." He shakes his head a little. "I also forgot to mention one small matter.""What?" I steady the precariously balanced tower of folded clothing that I've been continuously adding to. If it tipped over, it may very well be my last straw."I shall be looking for someone to marry very
