Leora

My eyelids felt too heavy to lift, and forcing them open wasn't easy. Streaks of light flooded in once I opened them slightly, but they immediately shut again. There were voices nearby, ones I wasn't sure I recognized. My wolf whimpered and then told me, Pack, so I knew the people I heard had to be Charlotte and Nathaniel. Knowing they were here helped me find the strength to pull my eyes open. A film across my vision took several blinks to clear, and once my vision sharpened, I saw I was still in the clinic. There were machines everywhere, and an IV was still in my arm. It took me a moment to get my bearings, but once I did, I noticed something.

Something had changed.

I felt different.

Better. I felt better.

Stronger and healthier than I had all my life. I didn't know how, but I finally felt as I should have felt my entire life. My wolf was more present than ever, and it felt like I could run a marathon right now.

Was this how I should have felt my entire life? This was what I

  • Mated To The Cursed Lycan King   The Fine Line

    Leora"I, Leora Almelda, promise to embrace your wild spirit and nurture the gentleness inside you. Together, we will howl at the moon, run through the forests, and face life's challenges as one. Through the darkness of the night and the light of the day, I will be by your side until my heart stops beating. I will be your anchor, your shelter, and your home. Until our dying day, I am yours and pledge my life to you."I felt the magic of the pack bonds seeping into me. Every one of the Lycans in our kingdom was connected to me, filling me with a new level of power I never thought I would feel. My wolf howled inside me, and I knew when this was over, we would need to go for a run.Then, it was Bryan's turn. "I, Bryan Atwood, promise to embrace your wild spirit and nurture the gentleness inside you. Together, we will howl at the moon, run through the forests, and face life's challenges as one. Through the darkness of the night and the light of the day, I will be by your side until my hea

  • Mated To The Cursed Lycan King   The Vows

    LeoraToday was the day. Everything would change after today. The way my body vibrated as the nerves built up inside me was not something I thought I'd feel. This was bigger than finding out I was having a baby. Even bigger after knowing my wolf had grown strong enough for me to shift. This was the day I would be brought into the pack as their luna and into the kingdom as the queen.Being the queen was a huge responsibility. There were thousands of Lycans I would be overseeing by Bryan's side. He would be doing most of the heavy lifting, but I planned on sharing every burden I could to lighten his load. After we came home and I saw the pack open their arms to me, I knew things would be different. Everything was falling into place now, and I just needed to take deep breaths. Moving forward could be handled one step at a time. I wasn't doing any of this alone, either.I had Bryan.In the mirror, I could see how I looked in a soft blue dress that was fit for a queen. Coda had spent hours

  • Mated To The Cursed Lycan King   The Missing Piece

    BryanI moved in close and locked my lips with hers. Her arms wrapped around my torso, and I held her by her hips. Our kiss deepened, and I slipped my tongue into her mouth. She rubbed her hands up and down my body, feeling my muscles as I grabbed her head, weaving my fingers in her hair. She exhaled all of the air in her lungs and moaned. I could feel her body go limp.My hand slipped underneath her shirt, creeping up her torso to her breast. I went underneath the bra and felt that her nipples were already stiffening with anticipation. I pushed her against the wall and leaned into her. Her hand started to massage between my legs where I was expanding; she let out a laugh under her breath, and I looked at her."I need this," she said, grasping my member."I'm sure you do." I grabbed both of her wrists with one hand and held them above her head. With my free hand, I unbuttoned her pants and pulled them down. Beneath her clothes, she was wearing pink panties. I slipped my hand underneat

    BryanCielo had been released from the clinic a few hours after he went to the room. They didn't find anything to keep him, and everything remained stable. I wanted to be the first one to hold him, but I knew I would lose that fight against Leora. She pushed me out of the way to get to Cielo's room.Like the amazing mother she was.Cielo looked healthy, as if nothing had happened to him. There was so much I wanted to say, but I didn't want to take the focus off our son. If anything, I wanted to reach out to Annalise and thank her for getting my head out of my ass. I would have lost them because of my own arrogance if it weren't for her. As much as I wanted to blame the curse, the truth was I still would have messed things up. I proved that the moment I failed to shut Isobel down when she started saying shit about Leora. That was a huge mistake that I wasn't even sure I had apologized enough to Leora about yet.Once Leora saw that Cielo didn't have anything attached to him, she scooped

    Leora"Do you mean that?" I whispered."Yes, I do. I don't give a shit about anyone else right now. Kingdom be damned, I just want my son to live. To have the life he deserves. Even you. You went through hell and back, twice, and the second time was because of me." He growled, and I shook. It felt so threatening, and I wanted to get away from him if he was going to get angry again. He didn't let me go. "I will never hurt you again, Leora. You are mine, and I am yours. If it means I have to give up everything else, so be it."Bryan pushed me back just enough so I could see his face. "There is nothing in this world more important than you and Cielo. I will do whatever it takes for you to see that."That sentence alone meant the world to me. For him to say he would give up everything for me wasn't what I wanted. I just wanted him to put me and Cielo above everyone else. That's what it meant to be a mate; they were supposed to be the main priority in their lives. I put Bryan ahead of myse

  • Mated To The Cursed Lycan King   The Confession

    LeoraWhy did this have to be so hard? Love wasn't supposed to be this ongoing fight, was it? When Bryan let go of me, I walked back into the clinic, not stopping until I reached a chair in the small waiting room. Bryan followed, choosing to sit in the chair next to me, and hesitated before putting his arm around me. I rolled my eyes, then grabbed his arm and placed it over my shoulders.Even if I wasn't sure about this, I knew I needed him by my side right now. We waited for a long time, each passing second feeling longer than the last. The heat from his body sunk into my muscles, relaxing me against him. It felt too good to be cuddled up to him. When I leaned my head on his shoulder, everything crashed into me.I was at a clinic because my child was sick.My child was sick because of a witch who hated my mate.There was possibly no way for my child to get out of this mess until the curse was broken, and neither Bryan nor I knew how to do that.I turned my body into Bryan's, shaking
