My Second Chance Mate is a Barbarian 539 Is This It?
LyraDawn came, a chill grey light creeping into the room. I blinked, realizing I'd been staring at Edran's chair by the window for hours. I hadn't slept. I'd lain awake all night, an arm's length away from Nadia's back.I tried not to imagine him in it, before...Nadia stirred. I tensed, waiting."Your father is all I see when I look at you now," she whispered. "I can't bear it, Lyra."My breath caught. I opened my mouth, but no words came. My tongue felt tangled, heavy. My whole body felt heavy, as if I'd been buried under the floorboards."I don't want to see your face again, Lyra. I can't."A sound escaped me. "Nadia..."Silence. She didn't move.I stared at that gap on the carpet. My hand rose, fingers curling to caress her rigid back. But it fell away, returned to press against my own thigh. My gaze caught on the chair, angled to the window. The dent in the cushion.I lay there, unmoving, as the light slowly grew on the wall. The shadows retreated, exposing the rough texture of
My Second Chance Mate is a Barbarian 538 Not Like Any I Knew
BramI crawled backward through the snow, chin to the ground, satchel pressed close to my side. The riders' fire had burned down to embers. Their talk had faded into snores and breathing, but I knew they could wake at any moment.The bitter cold nipped at my exposed skin, but I hardly felt it. The satchel weighed heavier with each mile, but I pressed on, putting as much distance between me and the riders as possible.The wind whipped my face, carrying the scent of pine trees and frost. I breathed it in deeply, letting it fill my lungs.I used what I could to navigate through the darkness. The moon was a sliver of silver overhead, too thin to cast much light, but my eyes adjusted easily.I knew this land, knew the way the trees and rocks lay, and I moved swiftly and silently through it.The stars faded overhead and the sky turned a deep, frozen blue.I stopped to breathe and looked around. The trees loomed closer here, their branches tangled in a way that felt wrong.No bird cries, no
My Second Chance Mate is a Barbarian 537 Two Feet or Four
BramMy paws crunched through the snow. The hare's blood still tingled on my wolf's tongue. I reached the burrow where my bundle was hidden, a mound of snow at the base of a twisted root.I shifted back, my bones folding in on themselves, my muzzle drawing back into the nose and mouth of Kael's face, my four legs straightening to two.And now I was standing naked in the snow. The cold bit at my bare skin, but it couldn't make me shiver. My body ran too hot for that. I dug my bundle from its icy bed, shaking the powder from the old coat and tunic.I dressed swiftly. When the coat was on, I strapped the satchel beneath it. The weight of the papers lay against my ribs.It was the reason I walked these woods on two feet, instead of dashing through the woods as a wolf.A wolf couldn't keep them dry in this snow. There was nothing left for me back in Ironmaw, and if I tried to push through the passes, the riders would catch me sure as daybreak.I kept walking. For the first time in all that
My Second Chance Mate is a Barbarian 536 I Don't Have To
FenrisI walked into the small hall with Yvara, a cold morning draft following us inside.Vidar was already there, sitting at the table eating bread and cold meat with a cup of ale. He looked at home, as if it were his own house. His beta stood by the door, arms folded.Vidar caught my eye and smiled, waving me over. "Eat, Alpha. We have much to discuss."I stayed standing by the fire, folding my arms. I had no stomach for food this morning. Vidar took that in good humour, tearing off a hunk of bread as if I weren't there."Last night, at the feast, you leaned into my ear and talked at me for a good long while just to ask for this meeting at first light," I said.Vidar laughed, crumbing bread onto the table. "Well, I've always been one to take my time."He winked at me, but I just stared back.Yvara stood silent by the door, watching Vidar's beta. The beta watched her in return. They sized each other up without a word.I turned back to the fire. The keep was quiet still, most of my wo
My Second Chance Mate is a Barbarian 536 His Who, My Nobody
ElaraMy hand slid beneath the fur, closing around the ring. My knee jerked beneath it as I stared at Kane. He hadn't moved.I leaned forward, coming out from under my cover, one hand gripping the seat edge. "What I'm going to do? You brought me here! I had no choice, no say, and now you're asking me why I wanted to escape?"Kane turned to look out the window, an impassive mask on his face. The gate houses slid by, lantern light catching in his hair.I felt my voice rising, my words tumbling out faster and louder. "My parents begged you to let me stay. They begged you not to take me. But you didn't care, did you? You just dragged me back like some kind of... like some kind of prisoner!""Like you don't know!" I burst out. "Like you don't know exactly what I wanted when I went to that trader. I wanted to get away from you!"I froze. It was too loud, too raw. I looked at Kane, waiting for his reaction, bracing myself for it. But he just kept staring out the window, his face as empty as
My Second Chance Mate is a Barbarian 535 Exact. Every Piece.
SeraYvara's eyebrows shot up. I swallowed hard, trying to work out the details. "Deep in the forest," I said. "Where things die in winter and nobody asks.""Picked apart by beasts," Yvara added, her voice dry. "It should look like he fought whatever got him."I nodded. "But venom..." I trailed off, my gaze drifting to Amara. A bite was the surest way to kill, but... I glanced back at Yvara, at Fenris. "There can't be venom. Vane knows I keep a rogue."Yvara's gaze drifted to the silent girl who watched us from the hearth, then back to me. "Whatever you tell her," she said, "it has to be exact. Every piece."The memory of Torin's mangled body flashed through my mind, Yvara dragging him in by the collar, his arm gone. The old fury stirred within me once more, but I held my tongue, meeting Yvara's gaze steadily. I gave a single, sharp nod.Fenris groaned softly behind me. I glanced back to see him dropping his head onto the furs, eyes shut.I rose from the bed with the tunic in my hand,
My Second Chance Mate is a Barbarian 110 Mechanical Voice
LyraShe ignored me. She dropped to her knees, her hands sliding down to the waistband of my trousers. She shoved her fingers inside the fabric, gripping my hips tight. With one sharp pull, she dragged the pants and my underwear down to my ankles. I stepped out of them, kicking my boots off in the

Lyra"Tell the girl to step into the room," he said."Leave her out of this," I said. My voice came out as a pathetic, raspy whisper. I cleared my throat, trying to find some spine. "She didn't do anything. It was my idea to come in here.""Tell her to step into the room," he said, his eyes going d

LyraThe voice didn't belong to Nadia. It didn't belong to me. It came from the metallic object resting directly behind my hip.Nadia froze. She pulled her mouth away from me and yanked her fingers out of my body. She stood up quickly, wiping her wet mouth with the back of her hand, her chest heavi

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.
