“And now what?” I ask, my heart about to punch a hole through my ribcage from the whole situation—and from having this man so unbearably close to me. “Can you kill them?”

“I can,” Kays replies, “but I won’t, for many reasons.”

I stare at the brunette without understanding.

“Well, first of all, there are too many of them. And while I’m dealing with one, there’s a decent chance another might reach us. I can’t defeat them all at once,” the mage explains, studying my face. “Second, killing them would release an enormous amount of free mountain energy and force. I can’t absorb that much, and it could be destructive for everything alive nearby—including you. Third, I simply don’t kill living or magical creatures without extremely dire necessity.”

“And right now isn’t that dire necessity?” I breathe, unable to tear my gaze away from his lips, which curl into a mocking smirk.

“No. We’re hidden. It’s not their fault we ended up in the path of their migration. Natural processes of this land. Th

    Two huge hands grab my shoulders, lift me, and throw me back onto the bed, pinning me beneath his massive body. His eyes glare into mine—and damn it, my traitorous body responds! How helpless I am before this beautiful demon!“Yes, we didn’t argue,” Kays snarls angrily, sliding his hand between my legs and starting his indecent actions. I try to clamp my legs shut, but it’s useless—the bastard has settled his torso perfectly. “She was a very obedient and meek wife, never dared to say a word against me,” the insolent man begins kissing me insistently, but I have very different thoughts.“You’ve completely lost it, bastard! You’re pawing at me while telling me what a wonderful wife you had!” I snap, desperately wanting to claw his eyes out for that.But the brunette only presses harder, smiling smugly and continuing to kiss me while I dodge and squirm.“Get your drooling mouth and shameless hands off me, you crooked freak! If I’d known I’d suffer this much because of you, I would’ve lef

  • No Escape From Fate    161 A Bedroom Confrontation

    When I wake up, I see the sun glowing outside the window and an empty bed beside me. My naked body pleasantly aches beneath the sheets after last night, but resentment and bitterness fill my mind with a vile bile.Suddenly, I feel myself being pulled against a strong chest, powerful arms wrapping around me from behind.“Kays,” I turn to look at the man like a beaten dog. “I thought you’d left…”“I figured you might,” the king smiles faintly and kisses my nose. “I’m sorry I left you alone for so long yesterday. You had time to work yourself up pretty badly, didn’t you? The situation turned out to be extremely… unconventional.”“As far as I’m concerned, it’s quite conventional,” I lower my eyes sadly and settle more comfortably in the arms of the man I love. “Your dearest wife showed up, and you had no time for your mistress…”“Don’t say that,” the brunette frowns.“How should I say it? Am I wrong? Are you really going to tell me nothing stirred inside you when you saw her?”And from th

    “But that was before the two of you opened up to each other,” my friend tries to reason with me. “I’ve read your books too, in case you forgot, and it says there that to break the curse you need a powerful feeling! And for it to be the strongest and truly effective, it has to come from both sides! Without his strong feelings for you, you wouldn’t have been able to lift the curse,” Io says gently, trying to comfort me.“I don’t know, Io. I don’t know anything anymore,” I wipe my tears with my sleeve. “That was true because she wasn’t here. But now that Bahira has appeared, his old feelings might flare up again—they never went anywhere.”“That damn pest!” the brunette snaps angrily. “Couldn’t she stay in the afterlife? If she died, she should’ve stayed a fine layer of ash!”“Turns out I’m the one who pulled her back,” I start sniffling again. “Did myself a real favor, didn’t I.”“You need to talk to Karadeylis,” Iolanta insists, and I know she’s right—but… I’m so afraid of that conversa

  • No Escape From Fate    159 The Extra One

    I never thought that a single word could make my soul grow this cold. I hear my heart pounding somewhere in my ears, leaping into my throat the moment I realize who it is.“Kays!” Bahira looks at my fiancé with emotion, anguish, and pain—and with tears, she rushes into his arms.The brunette stands frozen in mute shock, staring at the girl in his embrace in disbelief—then wraps his arms around her tightly in return.Inside me, everything snaps in that very second. The vilest, most repulsive feeling spreads through my body like a slow poison, seeping into every organ, every living cell of my existence, extinguishing the light within.And this isn’t jealousy. Not anger. Not the all-consuming despair that crashes over me in a second wave.It’s the feeling that you don’t belong.That you are extra.“Iza…” I faintly hear Iolanta address me softly, with worry. “Are you okay?”“Ah…” I’m as if in a trance—none of what’s happening feels real. I turn my lost gaze to my anxious friend.“Iza,” th

    We left the king’s chambers, and to my surprise, we didn’t go down—we went up, climbing a spiral staircase into some tower. There were several doors there, and we stopped in front of one of them.“This is, in a way, my armory. But about it…” Kays paused, thinking, “…no one knows. There’s no access here.”When he placed his hand against the door, his palm glowed—and the door simply vanished. At my whispered “wow,” we stepped inside the small room. It was modest in size, like a storage chamber, but everything inside was perfectly orderly.There were no windows—only several shelves lined with various items.I’ll admit, I expected to see massive axes, muskets, firearms, blades, swords, and bombs—but not what I actually saw. Resting peacefully on the shelves were amulets, pendants, and rings of all kinds of colors.“This looks more like your jewelry box,” I snort, examining the glittering trinkets.“Appearances can be very deceiving at times,” Kays smirks. “Minerals, metals, and stones hav

    “Nice talk, smooth operator,” I still grumble.“What’s a ‘smooth operator’?” he asks, and I roll my eyes.“Nothing. This world wouldn’t understand it.”“Iza, what are you even imagining now?” Kays sighs, gives up, pulls on his trousers, then gently wraps me in his arms, lifting my chin so I look at him. “We’re fighting over something that doesn’t even exist. Why?”“It’s just… I love you so much that I’m scared… scared you’ll regret being with me… scared you proposed out of a sense of duty—for lifting the curse…”I’m cut off by my beloved’s demanding lips crashing into mine.“Thinking really is bad for girls,” he smirks slightly as he pulls back. “No sense of duty would ever make me marry a woman I don’t love! And I definitely don’t plan to regret my decision. In fact, I’m counting on you giving me a few more beautiful little prepedollies and some brave princes,”At that statement, my eyes nearly pop out of my head.“I’m not a little boy who doesn’t know what he wants—I’m a very mature
