GILDEON

His eyes flicked to the chamber as Ghulik started retching. The goblin was on his knees, saliva dripping from his jagged teeth, hands bracing himself on the floor. Gildeon had expected the process to take longer, but here it was already.

The sooner, the better anyway.

He set the grimoire back on the table and stood to watch closely, hands in his pockets. Ghulik vomited up two black, slimy eggs, each the size of Gildeon's palm.

“Just as I thought,” Roselia muttered, handing the eyeglasses back to him. He felt their renewed enchantment just before pocketing them. “Two eggs. Two witches, My Lord.”

He crossed his arms, shaking his head. “It still baffles me that this is how you people get the witchtrace of each other.”

“Well, back in the day, it was a lot... different,” Roselia said hesitantly as she approached the chamber. She carefully picked up one egg and set it down on the clear part of the table. “Witches used to slice open their stomachs, with nothing to numb the pain.” A g

  • MAD END'S DECEPTION   248 - Feel Him Everywhere

    ARAHShe woke up with a big smile on her face. She couldn’t remember the last time she’d slept that well.A small pang of disappointment hit when she realized Gildeon was already gone from the bed. However, the sound of movement in the kitchen made her heart skip a beat. She sprang up, nearly tripping over Lexi’s scattered things on the floor, which she quickly gathered and tidied up.Arah tiptoed down the hallway, careful not to make a sound. Not that it mattered. Salamanders like Gildeon had incredibly sharp senses too. Still, she wanted to do some silly, sneaky things with him—just like human couples did.She leaned against the wall at the end of the hallway and watched him move around the kitchen, cooking breakfast. His back muscles flexed beneath the soft stretch of his white shirt, and she bit her lip, smiling to herself.Her mind drifted back to last night,to how big and hard he’d been for her, the hunger in his kiss,

  • MAD END'S DECEPTION   247 - Awakened Sylph

    GILDEONHe wasn’t sure how long he’d been watching Arah sleep. The steady rise and fall of her breath, the way her head rested on his arm…She was completely out, worn down from everything that had happened. She looked peaceful. Safe. Like she trusted him with all of her. It was ironic considering that the first time he brought her down to Earthland, all he’d thought about was how to make her submit to him.Gently, he brushed a blue curl from her face. He could’ve stared at her forever and never gotten tired of it.“Did Master fuck Sylph Lady already?”Gildeon’s head snapped up. At the foot of the bed, Ghulik was climbing on, crouched low on the mattress with that wide, toothy grin of his. His crimson eyes scanned Arah from head to toe like he was inspecting a prize. Gildeon pulled the comforter up to cover her bare body.‘I didn’t sense your return,’ he said telepathically, carefully sliding his arm out and sitting up.

  • MAD END'S DECEPTION   246 - I'd Rather It Be You

    GILDEONShock and confusion tore through him like wildfire. Even his dragon spirit stirred uneasily within him. He had already suspected that his real mother wasn’t just an ordinary higher mortal. But to hear the words, Dragon Queen and High Immortal, was almost impossible to grasp.“Don’t know much about High Immortals, myself,” Roselia remarked, “only that Yonah’s one, far as I know.”“We don’t know much about them either.” Gildeon stared into what was left of his tea. “All we know is the Shining Keeper came down from the higher dimension with her companions—the High Immortals. They helped her shape the world how she wanted.”Arah chimed in, “So… could it mean your mother was one of those companions?”“Could be,” he replied simply, his thoughts beginning to spiral inward, tugging him deeper.But before he could get lost in the weight of that revelation, he forced himself to pull back. He needed to shift the conversation be

  • MAD END'S DECEPTION   245 - From Your Real Mother

    ARAHAs soon as the dragon vanished along with the Dark Plane gateway, the Dark Fae disappeared too. It only hit her then that the world around her had frozen, just like the first time she’d witnessed him do it. And now everything was moving again as if nothing had happened.Her weary eyes found Gildeon, and the worry on his face made her heart flutter. He rushed to her side, and the wind shield around her faded the moment he reached her.She threw herself into his arms and sobbed against his chest. His embrace tightened around her, as if he were afraid she might disappear. She didn’t mind if she got crushed in his grip. She needed his warmth, his comfort, and his sense of safety.“I’m sorry, Arah,” he whispered into her hair. “I’m sorry for making you leave. I wasn’t myself.”“I know,” she murmured, savoring every time he said sorry to her. He was so different from the Gildeon she’d first met. And while the recent events had throw

  • MAD END'S DECEPTION   244 - Get Her Back

    GILDEONHe jolted awake in a bed that didn’t feel familiar. The last thing he remembered was the sharp sensation of electricity surging through his body, then everything going dark.A musky blend of incense and herbal smoke filled the air. As his eyes adjusted, he spotted clusters of crystals around the room and slowly began to recognize where he was.One of Roselia’s rooms.He’d come here earlier that morning to check on Roselia and Ghulik—who were both still in hibernation—before he’d lost consciousness. Judging by the fact he’d been moved and was clearly receiving healing treatment, at least Roselia was awake.He swung his legs over the edge of the bed.The door just opened.“Oh, good. You’re awake now, My Lord. Perfect timing.” Roselia stepped in and set a tray on the nearby table. On it sat a bowl of fragrant, steaming soup and a cup of freshly brewed tea.“What happened to me?” he asked.“Same thin

  • MAD END'S DECEPTION   243 - Sealed It Within You

    ARAHShe pressed a hand over her mouth, trying to piece it all together. “The Dark Fae,” she asked after a moment, “is he working for you?”Zephyr nodded. “His kind shares my vision, though I don’t trust them entirely. I had to offer them something in return to ensure they followed the demands I set.”“What did you give them?”“An augmented power,” he replied, “enough to stand toe-to-toe with the Light Faes.”Arah thought back to what Gildeon had said about how the Dark Fae had helped them break free from the Light Fae’s grip. Knowing that a sylph had granted them that kind of power was hard to wrap her mind around.“Why do you need the Dark Plane open?” she asked.He fell silent, simply staring at her. For the first time, he seemed to be weighing whether or not to answer her. Then he drew a breath.“The Dark Plane is the only thing capable of containing the entire Shamibar.”She frowned. “What do you me
