"Remember my son,

Hope is the ember that kindles the soul. Without it—we simply turn to stone."

[SHADE SHADOWS]

My fingers slide down the wood of the shelves, feeling for dust as I walk mindlessly in between aisles. I note that they return clean as if someone had spent hours here.

Perhaps Madam called for a maid whilst we slaves were away. I do not dwell too much on the mystery. I have too many mysteries to solve already.

Above all else, I am simply grateful that at least work has

I truly love Kayos and Shade. But like Shade, I have so many questions to the mystery that surrounds her. I hope by staying by Kayos side in the library she receives her answers

  • Mated to the Night Wolf   [67.1] A NEW FLAME (part-one)

    •|•|•But alas, a life without risk is no life at all.•|•|•[SHADE SHADOWS]"The rooms have been divided into groups of four," Dula excitedly explains, practically skipping beside me as she takes me into our new room.Her eagerness and childish nature bring warmth into the air, a new light in her eyes that had once been dull. Her gaze shifts to the new room she presents before me with a twirl.I am stunned by what I see.Beds.Actual beds.I have not slept on a bed in...well, it felt like ages.Iron beds.Mattresses, pillows, blankets. Four separate beds in a room, equally spaced, with two windows at the farthest end and a perch beside them. The room itself was warm and inviting. Enough light that it actually felt like home.There were even chests placed before the beds.Dula, in high spirits, rushes to them, flipping them open. "Madam gave each of us two new sets of clothing and shoes," she explains as I take a peek inside, surprised.Indeed, clean new attire is folded neatly insi

  • Mated to the Night Wolf   [66.1] FOR THE FUTURE

    |•|•With every decision you make, pup, you must identify the sacrifice. For every choice demands a price—and blood and time are the most expensive of currencies.|•|•[SHADE SHADOWS]Kayos is hovering.Keen on every move I make, his eyes follow me as I test out the crutches that kind-hearted Master Gregory brought for me.Truly, I do not know what it was Barnabas was warning me about the masters. So far, the two I have met have been nothing but a delight.Or perhaps.. I am simply lucky.How strange for a keffer.Either way, I am grateful.I take a few more hops before coming to a stop. A little wobbly, the crutches certainly need some getting used to, but I manage to steady myself, turning around to face Kayos, in victory once I cross the threshold again.He waits by the shelves, but his eyes are filled with worry, brows drawn in, and eyes fixed on my movements with precision lest I fall.I laugh at the sight of him.Warmth brews in me when his gaze snaps up to my face at the sound a

  • Mated to the Night Wolf   [65.1] TO KNOW

    |•|•Are you afraid, pup?Walk in the light where the shadows do not reach. And if the darkness devours us, we will search for hope, whose flame never goes out.•|•|•[KAYOS ADREN PRIME]I have not found a dinner this enjoyable in years. And no—it is not because of the delicacies spread before me.There is no honorable way to confess the obsession that grows the longer that I am in her presence.Her smile has become an addiction; her voice sustains me.Reason. What has become of reason?When was the last time I thought of consequences? For surely, there will be consequences. Life has never been this generous.Traps set so plainly, and I take caution to the wind.I have walked the path of the blind once and decided to never stray.Indeed, I have long established that I am to keep her no matter the cost. It is simply not negotiable.There is no way—no future that I can see where she is not intertwined completely.She sees me, and by heaven and hell, I refuse to be hidden again.I have k

  • Mated to the Night Wolf   [64.1] CARE (part-two)

    •|•|• At the end pup, when your eyes are weary with age. Gold and silver become worthless, and memories—priceless. •|•|• [SHADE SHADOWS] I am dazzled by the spread before me. It is not just plenty; it is diverse. From fruits to meats, desserts, and even things I have no idea what they might be. My mouth waters, slightly overwhelmed. I confess, I do not even know where to begin. I have never seen a table so plentiful in my life. So much so, that I am reminded of my sister and the other slaves that eat portions bland and small that- should they be put together could not even equate half of what was here. "Shade?" My eyes flash back up to the Master at the soft call of my name. Kayos watches me through the flicker of the candlelight. There is a concerned draw between his eyebrows, his head shifts slightly if only to see me better—a question lingering in his gaze. I realize that my expression must have come across as worrisome. I did not want him to think I was

  • Mated to the Night Wolf   [63.1] CARE (part-one)

    [A/N] The POV's switch twice this chapter. (Dual POV chapter)•|•|•Come, and I will teach you, Pup—things of old.How to keep a heart beating, warm and living. Feed it with a kiss, let it dine on affection and at night, when it is coldest, let it nestle in your utmost devotion. •|•|•[KAYOS ADREN PRIME]Beneath the low gleam of torchlight, I set down two wine glasses on the large master's table that sits at the heart of the library.With precision and care, I align them with the rest of the silver plates and golden bowls, paired with matching cutlery. The rich scent of exquisite foods from all over Valcane fills the air, placed atop chargers, covered beneath intricately designed royal dishes.The books and maps that had previously littered the table had long been cleared, the old chairs replaced with stronger ones, the surface wiped clean. My eyes study the spread, taking a mental note of what was and was not, eyebrows drawn.Everything had to be in place. Every detail had to be

  • Mated to the Night Wolf   [62.1] THESE HAUNTING REGRETS

    •|•|•See how they haunt us, our regrets, our reckless mistakes?They are shackled to us like ghosts. We cannot escape. So we hide in the dark, where no one may see.•|•|•[MASTER GREGORY]Many new feelings afflict me...Confusion, excitement, fear, apprehension, indeed only the strangest emotions and the oddest combinations. My mind runs wild, thoughts rapid as I tread the empty passageways from the Night Wolf's Sanctuary, coming to a slow stop in front of the familiar wall where I now know the hidden doorway lies.I stare at the cold brick that towers before me, eyes trailing the rough ridges beneath the low flicker of torchlight. It is strange how even this close to the light I feel a cold shudder cross my spine.So this was how he did it.Mmm. Back then, I had always wondered. When I served in his time. My lips press thinly and almost by instinct I turn to the left, glimpsing the gloomy hall I had only just left behind me as if I might see that familiar haunting figure cross
