My Second Chance Mate is a Barbarian 230 Hello My Queen
IrinaI went to him the next evening in a dress I had not worn since the early months of our marriage. I took his hand at dinner in front of three of his guests. I laughed at one of his jokes, a thing nobody had done at one of his jokes in twenty-three years. I asked him, after the wine, if he might walk me to my chamber.He walked me.He walked me without speaking, which I took for a refusal until we reached the door and he stepped in behind me and the door closed, and he took hold of me by the upper arm in a grip that was neither rough nor kind, and he asked me in a soft voice what I was doing.I told him I had missed him.I said it in a voice I had been practicing on the inside of my cheek for a day.He held me with his eyes for what could have been a long time or no time at all.Then he took me to bed.He fucked me for the second time in our marriage, and he was thorough and unhurried and effective in exactly the way he had been the first time, and he was better at it than I had r
My Second Chance Mate is a Barbarian 229 A Different Plan
IrinaI had told Nyx first because Nyx already knew.She had crossed the room, gone down on one knee in front of me, and waited.After a minute she said, "How long.""Eight weeks.""You're sure.""I am sure.""All right." She stood. She held her hand out. "Up."I let her pull me up.She sat me at the dressing table. She poured water from the carafe into a basin and pushed the basin across to me, and I washed my face while she stood behind me and watched my hands. She watched my hands the way she watched my hands when she was deciding whether I was steady enough to be left alone.When I was finished she took the basin away and sat across from me."How.""A man.""I know how. Where.""My father's hall. The summer.""The cloth merchant."I turned my head."You knew.""I stood outside the door for three nights, my lady."I had nothing to say to that. I waited.Nyx folded her hands in her lap. She studied them. She studied them, and then she studied me."Have you told the king.""No.""Are
My Second Chance Mate is a Barbarian 228 The Captain
IrinaHe stopped touching me the night Sera was born.I had not known, at the time, that he was stopping. I had been recovering from a hard birth. He had come into the lying-in chamber twice, taken in the child, said the child is a girl, and left both times inside the half-hour. I had assumed his distance was a temporary courtesy. The weeks had become months. The months had become a year. I had been twenty years old and the wife of the King of Valdris, and my husband had stopped turning toward me, and I had spent the second year of Sera's life telling myself it was the season, the politics, the strain of his accession — anything except what it was, which was that Aldric had decided he was done.I had thought, then, that he had taken a mistress.I had spent four years searching for her. I had checked every woman who came into the keep. I had checked the kitchen girls and the maids and the daughters of the lower lords. I had read his correspondence when his clerks were lazy. I had bribe

IrinaMy father is a spineless idiot.He let his wife burn so his sister-in-law would stop being uncomfortable at the dinner table. He let her burn rather than stand in his own hall and say no. He let her burn so he could continue being the head of a small pack at the end of a small southern province where the food was always almost short and the children's shoes were always almost worn through. The sadness in his eyes had not been the sadness of a man being broken. It had been the sadness of a man who already knew, before the elders had spoken, that he was not going to do anything to stop them. The sadness had been the down payment on doing nothing.He sold me to Aldric years later for a debt he should have died refusing. He sold my younger sisters in the same season for prices I do not want to think about. He sold all of us in his soft voice, without raising it once.I was not surprised, the night he came into my chamber and put his hand on my shoulder and said the king has asked fo
My Second Chance Mate is a Barbarian 226 Spineless Idiot
IrinaI had been raised to believe a queen does not think about her mother after a certain hour.The reasoning had been domestic and circular, the way the reasoning of women raised in small pack houses tends to be. A queen has obligations in the morning. A queen who lies in the dark thinking of her mother does not sleep. A queen who does not sleep is no good to her household. I had carried the rule for forty-six years and broken it twice on harmless occasions, both of them at the bedside of a sick daughter. The third time I broke it was tonight, and it was not for any reason a woman in any pack house would have understood. I broke it for the smell.I was eight years old when they killed my mother.She had been screaming before they lit the wood. Screaming about my father, about her sister, about me. Begging, and pulling against the rope at the pole — twisting at the wrists, twisting at the ankles, twisting until the rope had taken the skin from both wrists clean enough that I could se
My Second Chance Mate is a Barbarian 225 Silent Moan
LyraShe reached for the laces of my dress and freed my breasts from the silk, the fabric dropping away, and then her mouth was on my skin and her hand cupped my bare breast and squeezed, and I arched up into her hands before I'd decided to.She pulled my nipple into her mouth.She sucked hard, her tongue pressing it flat against the roof of her mouth, and the direct line between my nipple and my pussy went taut all at once. I grabbed her hair. She did it again, slower this time, tongue circling the tip before she sucked again, and then she bit it — soft, enough to feel — and I made a sound that came from my chest.She moved to the other one without asking. Her teeth grazed the nipple first and I felt my pussy clench before she'd even put her mouth on me properly. When she did — hot and wet and pulling — I pushed my breast into her face and held her there.She let me hold her.Then she pulled back.She pressed her palm flat against my pussy through the silk. No movement. Just her hand

SeraNight fell fast, and with it, the temperature plummeted. We had three fires going, but the heat didn't seem to travel more than six inches past the flames. I sat on a log by the middle fire, pulling the wagon fur around my shoulders, shivering so hard my teeth were literally clicking together.

SeraThe light coming through the ceiling vents was fading into a deep violet. Torches were being lit, their orange glow reflecting off the polished stone. I sat on the wagon, feeling the cold start to seep back in, wondering if I’d just been forgotten.The warrior returned, bringing a girl with hi

Sera“What just happened?”"Forced healing takes fuel," Yvara explained. She paced in front of me. "It pulls energy directly from your reserves. It burns calories at a massive rate. In a battle of attrition, this will keep you alive, but it will also kill you if you aren't careful. You just got the

SeraMy mother’s hands were too soft. They felt strange against my skin, like something that didn't belong in the North. She dabbed a wet linen cloth against my cheek, her fingers trembling so badly she kept missing the dirt.The guest room was stifling. She had ordered the Valdris servants to buil
