LOGINWho knew life could change so quickly and dramatically? Justice finds out the hard way after her father dies tragically and her mother becomes an addict. What she didn't realize, though, was the secret her first love was hiding. She would never have guessed the supernatural wasn't just in fairytales, and hiding would be her new way of life.
View MoreThe hallway was a stark, silent stage for the aftermath of our clash. Justice, my fire, my defiance, had retreated, leaving behind an echo of her challenge and a simmering frustration within me. My wolf paced restlessly in my chest, a beast accustomed to absolute obedience, now chafing against the sting of her refusal. I allowed myself a moment to consider Brigid’s offer, a fleeting distraction, a familiar comfort, but even her cloying perfume couldn't erase the imprint of Justice’s fiery spirit. She was a different kind of challenge, one that ignited a possessiveness far deeper than mere desire.I walked back into the living room, the air still thick with the phantom scent of sandalwood and nightshade. Her words, "Then learn to dance, Niko
His jaw tightened, a muscle twitching at the corner of his mouth. The hint of respect I’d glimpsed had vanished, replaced by a glacial determination. He took a slow step towards me, his gaze never leaving mine, and for a terrifying moment, I thought he might lash out. But instead, his hand, the one that had traced my jaw so gently, rose again. This time, it didn’t stop at my lips. It cupped my cheek, his thumb stroking the skin just below my eye. "You are a fire, Justice," he conceded, his voice a low rumble that vibrated through me. "And I am the storm that will either consume you, or learn to dance with you. But make no mistake, you are mine to weather."The possessiveness in his tone was still a brand, but now, beneath it, I felt a tremor of something new. It wasn't quite
His grip tightened, a jolt of pain that ripped through my confusion and replaced it with a surge of defiance. The fear was still there, a cold knot in my stomach, but it was now laced with a potent anger. He had claimed me, spoken of possessiveness, yet his actions screamed of a desire to control, not connect. "I went out," I managed, my voice trembling, but with a new edge of steel. "I wasn't going to just sit here like a… a prize you'd won and then forgotten about." The accusation hung heavy in the air, a fragile shield against the primal storm I saw brewing in his eyes.He released my arm abruptly, the sudden absence of his touch leaving a stinging sensation on my skin. His eyes, dark and stormy, swept over me, a predator assessing its prey, but there was something else there too – a flicker of surprise, perhaps even hurt, quickly masked by a renewed display of dominance. "You do not question my orders, Justice," he growled, his voice a low rumble that promised retribution. "You do
The screech of Uber’s tires as it pulled away was the only sound that cut through the oppressive silence that had fallen over me. I stood on the curb, the familiar city lights blurring into streaks of color as a wave of confusion washed over me. Niko’s abrupt departure, the cold efficiency with which he’d dismissed me, felt like a physical blow. He’d laid claim to me, whispered promises into the charged air of his strangely alive apartment, and then… this. It was a whiplash of emotions, a dizzying descent from the intoxicating heights of shared vulnerability back to the harsh reality of his unpredictable nature. I clutched his card in my hand, the plastic cool against my clammy palm, a silent testament to the power he wielded even in his absence.My steps were hesitant as I walked into the dimly lit diner.
