Lies, lies, lies. This couldn't be the truth, and yet, Torin had no reason to lie. I had spent long hours tossing and turning in my tent, processing everything I had heard. My heartache resurfaced as I thought about how blind I had been.

“Fool,” I whispered to the night's darkness. “I was such a fool.”

How long had Jarith been conspiring with the Fiery Mist Pack? Had I been the only one who hadn't known? It enraged me even more that those soldiers had been sent to kill innocents. I knew that no war was just, but there were boundaries I would have never crossed. I would have hated Jarith had he ordered something as despicable as killing the weak and defenseless, and he had known it, too. Perhaps that was the reason why he had hidden that truth from me.

Of course, it might have been the Fiery Mist Pack that had made this call, but I doubted they would have engaged in someone else's war for no reason. It had been far too convenient for Sarendonia's troops to be called a coincidence. Hadn

  • My Fated Enemy   Building a Shield

    I was looking at Dearon sitting before me with my heart thumping fiercely in my chest. He looked even more breathtaking than the last time I had seen him. His mesmerizing blue eyes fixed on me, and my chest clenched in response. I missed him. Gods, I missed him so much. Every fiber within me yearned to sense his scent, to feel his touch, to hear his voice…His sinful lips formed a sly smirk. Then his mouth opened, and Heletria's voice sounded. “Focus, Kaira. You were supposed to focus!” she chided. Then Dearon's image faded in a dark smoke, and the witch appeared in his place.I groaned and tilted my head back. “I'm trying, but it's hard when you're showing me… him.”Heletria gave me a look. “I'm not even trying anything drastic, and you keep failing. I'll have to leave in less than an hour, and you'll have to face Darcio. And trust me, you're nowhere near ready to face him.”She was right, and that thought terrified me. I had decided to trust what my instincts had whispered and let h

  • My Fated Enemy   A Plan

    KAIRAThe room I had been given resembled a luxurious castle chamber, except it was windowless, which was slowly driving me insane. There were no windows in the hallways or corridors, and I couldn't find them in the throne room either. That only confirmed what I had already suspected: this place had been built underground.In brief moments when I managed to overcome the searing anxiety and heaviness in my chest, I could admit that my newest prison cell was quite impressive. There was a large canopy bed, several cabinets, closets, a settee, and a wardrobe filled with dresses that had less fabric than most of the nightgowns I'd seen.The bath chamber had running water, and the water was… warm. The underground water system was quite astonishing. Had I not been a prisoner at the mercy of the cruelest bastard I had ever met, perhaps I would have enjoyed taking a long bath in the tub that could accommodate at least four people.Unfortunately, none of those amenities offered the thing I crav

  • My Fated Enemy   Tricked

    DEARONI stared at the message from Oryndale, dumbstruck. I had read it three times since the messenger had brought it, but I had yet to utter a single word. Torin, Nazo, and Rafe gathered in my tent, waiting for my orders, but right now, my mind was a mess.Kaira was gone. She had somehow escaped from her prison cell. She had taken Aura and left Oryndale, heading in an unknown direction. Unsurprisingly, Morvan had come along with the messenger. The old bastard had wanted to see my face. He'd wanted me to admit to my mistake. I'd thrown him out of the tent, but the fucker remained close, waiting for his moment of triumph.“There had to be a reason behind it,” Rafe muttered. “Kaira would have never left without a reason.”Torin looked at him. “How can you be so certain?”“She's a good person,” Rafe hissed. “And you should be the one defending her. You're her brother, for fuck's sake!”“She might be my sister, but I still know nearly nothing about her!” Torin growled.“But do you believ

  • My Fated Enemy   Demonstration

    I jerked my hand out of Darcio's grip before I could think of what I was doing. A low growl rumbled in his chest—a clear warning—but I ignored that. Rage hummed within me as I gritted out, “I will never become your mate. You cannot force me!”The whole hall burst into wicked laughter. I looked at the warriors sitting by the tables, no shadow of a doubt that their Alpha could do it. But how? The mark couldn't be forced. The Moon Goddess might have taken our bonds, but she left us the sacred rule. Those who entered the mating ceremony had to be willing. The mark left by force would disappear just like any other injury on the wolf's body. He would have to convince me to become his, and I would have to accept him and then place my mark on him, too. And why in three hells would I ever accept him and mark him?I shot to my feet, my hands fisting. Then I looked at Heletria; she was laughing, too. I ground my teeth and turned to Darcio again. He leaned back in his seat as his lips curled up,

  • My Fated Enemy   At His Mercy

    I stared at the man before me as rage hummed in my veins. In any other circumstances, I would find that man handsome or even madly attractive. The sharp lines of his face were very much like Dearon's. Only his eyes were different. They were dark, slightly more squinted, and something cruel burned inside them.His fingers splayed, exploring my bare back as he held me in his arms. His touch burned right through me, filling me with disgust, but I knew this was a game. Others were watching—his warriors. If I prove to be the weak prey Darcio believed me to be, I might easily become a toy for all of them to use. On the other hand, fighting too fiercely would get me nowhere, too. Darcio was just as strong as Dearon. I was no match for him in a fight, but it didn't mean I would be meek and obedient.I stopped struggling. Instead, I looked into his eyes with all the confidence I could summon. “If you brought me here against my will, I deserve at least to know why,” I demanded.One side of his

  • My Fated Enemy   On a Leash

    The violent pounding in my head dragged me to awareness. I opened my eyes, blinking a few times to regain my focus. Gods… What was this place? Why was I there? Why was it so dark here? And what in the three hells had happened?My jaw clenched as I tried to move, triggering a new wave of pounding in my head. I sucked in a sharp breath, trying to put my thoughts in order. It didn't help. Everything was a fractured mess of images, emotions, scents, and sounds.I blinked a few more times and forced another deep breath into my lungs. Only then did the pounding in my head fade enough to soothe my feverish senses. I started by establishing simple facts: I was lying in some kind of bed, a hard and uncomfortable one, I was in a windowless room illuminated with only a few candles, and I—“Oh, gods,” I choked out, feeling something cold and hard around my neck—a collar. I lifted my hands, trying to touch it, only to realize I had been cuffed and chained. The panic within me exploded.I jerked up
