LOGINIsmelda's POV:The hollow walls of the castle rung in my ears as my steps ricocheted off them. I schooled my anxious nerves before I stepped through the heavy doors. All heads turned to me before their bodies rose to acknowledge my presence. I walked with my head held high and my stride, slow. My father stood to his feet. His face was hard, but his hand was raised to recieve me. My long white hair was swept up in a high ponytail. My sleek neck was on display as it was accented with a sliver halter dress that sparkled. The dress hugged my figure just right, exposing my back. It had some weight to it, and it dragged slightly behind me. The silver highlighted the palness of my skin and the blue to my cold eyes. I extended my hand out to reach for my father's. My sharply pointed nails, that was polished with a dusty silver, shined in the reflection of the chandelier that hung over us all. He pulled me in. I leaned forward to kiss his cheek. He looked at me as I leaned back. Remnants of th
Gin's POV:I've noticed a pattern as of late. I came across an injured she-wolf, who just so happened to be a relative of the girl I almost killed. Now, I've come across of friend of the same girl. Apparently he's been taken hostage and forced into coercion: finding and tricking women of the same lineage as Kwen to "date" him, before they're taken, and their powers siphoned from them. He hasn't really told me much that has happened to him. I found him in bad shape when I was coming from seeing my mate at her home. She was needed and had to tend to her people. He looked as if he was running from something or someone... and he barely got away. He woke up just long enough to barely give me a recap. I haven't had any new visitors as of late, and I've been tryna keep a low profile. I've nursed him back from almost dying, which was basically cleaning his wounds and reset his shoulder. His wolf did the rest. He's been in and out of consciousness for about 3 days now.I came back into my plac
Mateo's POV:...Flashes of a woman with dark, brown skin appeared before me. Her smile was bright and her eyes held mystery that captivated me. Her danty fingers reached out to me.She was soft.Her eyes mesmerized me. One blue. One brown. I heard her whisper out to me."Teo."My heart fluttered. A bright light shined ahead of me, calling me towards it. I crept my way into the light, and it was blinding. I covered my eyes, and when I opened them again, I was in a room. It looked to be a nursey. The walls were painted in pinks and yellows, with little angels that lined the walls. I turned to see a woman with short, curly hair sitting in a rocking chair. She glanced back at me and then back down in front of her."Come close. She missed you. She wants to see her daddy before she sleeps."I quickly looked behind me to see if there was another here. No one was. I turned back to the mother/daughter duo, and slowly moved closer. I stood behind the woman who continued her rhythmic back and f
Kwen's POV:It's been a weird few days. Cersai has been, how do you say, clingy as fuck!! I mean, your girl can't even sneeze without him thinking I'm sick or something. I went to try and trian the other day, and he snatched up a solider so damn fast, talking about "he was staring too hard."Dude!!We were on the training field. Of course he's staring at me!! That's literally the point!! Damn! I give up the cookie one time, and now I done created a fan, who I can't get rid of. So it's more like a stalker with rights to my body.He lucky he cute.I had to sit him down and let him know that we'll have sex again, and that it wasn't a "goodbye fuck." Ima still be here and I ain't going nowhere. He chilled out, but he still seemed uneasy. I don't know what that's about, but I'm gonna find out. But first, I need to have a conversation with my auntie and Angel. Angel's been going through it. Aunt Mia and Angel has never been on the outs with each other, so she's taking it really hard. I'm no
Mia's POV:Flashback: 22 years ago...Someone buzzed up to our apartment. I looked up from the book that I was reading on the couch. A squeal came from down the hall, and I rolled my eyes."Girl, get your shit together. You act as if he went off to war and has been away for months."I said, sarcastically. Minnie came rushing out the bathroom, hair pinned back and makeup half done."Stop hating. It feels that way."I gave her look."Bitch, he was just here last night. Are y'all doing drugs or something I don't know about? If you are, for one, I'll be pissed, cause we supposed to do that shit together. Two, what drugs you on, cause y'all seem happy as hell all the damn time."I said. She started laughing, walking towards the door to buzz him up. She turned to me with a huge smile on her face."Ahhh... it's called love, darling. You should try it. And stop acting as if you don't like him. You love him and you know you do. Otherwise, his ass would never step foot in the house."Minnie sai
Marcus's POV: Walking towards the cellars, I heard the screams of our new prison. I could tell my face held a frown that refused to budge. Andrew and Jason both followed behind me. "The prince is sure about this?" Jason questioned in concern. "Wouldn't you be? If anyone told you that your mate and future children would always be at risk, wouldn't you try anything to stop it?" Andrew countered. "Yeah, but with the Library?? I don't know. I'm not sure if I'm projecting, but something just feels off. It's like everything is caving in, all at once. I'm not sure who to trust at this point." Jason finished. "Trust me. Trust my son... trust Kwen. I know you've only skimmed passed her before she had to leave, but trust me when I say, she is worth the risk. If Heather can find what she needs to keep those bastards from trying to hurt her, then so be it. Besides, I don't care if they exist yet or not, no one threatens my grandpups." I said, darkly. My wolf, Knox and I, were already ove
I looked over at Cersai. I couldn't figure out if he's delusional or if he had a point to his line of questioning. I looked back over at my sister, and she seemed unbothered by it. She shrugged."I don't know. I know not everything our mother does or why she's allowed for this union."It looked as
As I looked back on the last few hours, my want for Kwen has done nothing but increase. I watched as she skillfully ran through the enemy and defended the people without hesitation. She chose to stand before all, even when she was look at like a fraud. In doing so, she made a statement to all who w
I didn't get much sleep. It was already early morning, when I finally got to my room, after my run-in with Kwen and Sebastian. I felt like a jackass. It seems that lately, I haven't been able to do anything right by Kwen. The more I try to fix things, the worse they become. It was about 10 am when
I hopped into another quick shower and threw on some short shorts and a long t-shirt. I braided my hair into two big braids, then laid back on my bed. As soon as my back hit the bed, a knock was heard at my door. I knew exactly who it was. I got up and opened the door to see Psy standing there."Ta
