LOGINFirst, I owe you all an apology.
I promised to upload two chapters and ended up delivering none. Some things, however, are beyond our control. A lot has happened over the past three days, all related to family. Iâm doing fine health-wise, but there was a large family reunion that began on New Yearâs Eve and lasted until daybreak on the 2nd. Between the lack of sleep and caring for my child, I needed time to rest and recover. As introverted as I am, family will always come first, and I hope you can understand that. Thank you so much for your patience and kindness. Please donât give up on me. I have many exciting plots ahead and several books I'm already working on. I hope to find a family in you all, and I truly appreciate your continued support. â€Love, FireworksđCole is consumed by fury, but the moment his gaze meets Britneyâs, the violent aura he's exuding drops like a stone.He sees the flash of raw betrayal, the insecurity, and shock reflecting in her wide, glassy eyes.Fuck, it tears straight through his chest.He turns away and sets Britney down on a plush lounge chair right outside the threshold, turning his back on Lucinda as if she does not exist.He kneels right in front of Britney, taking her face between his palms.âLook at me, Britney. Look only at me,â Cole commands gently, his deep voice thick with emotion. He brushes his thumbs over her pale cheeks, searching her eyes. âShe is nothing to me. I swear to you on my life, on my honor, she means absolutely nothing. You are my only mate. My Luna.âBritneyâs breath hitches as the panic in her chest begins to settle under the truth burning in Cole's gaze.She swallows back her doubts and nods softly.âI believe you, Cole,â she whispers, even when she can't hide how her voice shakes sli
Coleâs eyebrows pull together in a frown.âThree days?ââThree days,â Dr. Evelyn repeats, refusing to back down. âNo exceptions. Her human body needs time to repair itself. If you touch her roughly or attempt any physical intimacy before then, you risk causing severe internal damage and prolonging her recovery. Do I make myself clear, Alpha Cole?âCole stares at the paper in his hand, his heart twisting with a mix of possessiveness and remorse.He looks down at Britney, seeing the exhaustion etched into her features, the pale shade of her skin, and the faint purple shadows beneath her eyes.âThree days,â Cole grunts through gritted teeth, giving a single, firm nod. âShe rests.âWithout waiting another moment, Cole bends down and slides one arm beneath Britneyâs knees and the other around her upper back. He scoops her into his arms in one fluid movement, pulling her against his chest.Britney gasps softly, resting her cheek against his collarbone.âCole... I can walk...ââYou are not t
âIt's alright; we have forever to make up for it,â Cole says, and Britney nods, smiling as she wipes her face, and answers.âYes, we do.âCole carries her through the double doors of the packâs hospital, his long, powerful strides echoing off the polished marble floors.The nurses and junior doctors who had been watching the fallout between the alpha and his mother scattered instantly.They bow their heads in respect as their alpha storms past them. They all can feel his protective aura rolls off him in suffocating waves, an overwhelming wall of authority that warns everyone to keep their distance from the little woman in his arms.Britney shyly buries her pale face into the crook of Coleâs neck, her hand clutching the fabric of his shirt, the other around his neck.Her tiny body trembles against his, suddenly feeling drained from the intense confrontation.~~~Cole pushes open the door to a private ward, stepping inside and moving straight towards the examination bed, and carefully l
They break apart from the kiss, Caroline breathing heavily as she leans her chin against Darius' broad chest. Darius holds her close, placing a soft, lingering kiss on top of her head. Suddenly, Caroline feels the weight behind her vanish, and she asks Darius softly, âMy wings... are they gone?â âYes,â Darius murmurs, pressing another kiss onto her forehead. âThe fever has broken for now. How do you feel?â âExhausted,â Caroline admits, letting out a small, tired sigh as she rests her head over his beating heart. âBut... the dark fog is gone.â She pauses, her fingers gently tracing the faint scars on his chest. âI'm sorry, Darius. I'm sorry for pushing you... for letting my anger make me doubt you.â Darius shakes his head, his jaw tightening slightly with fury toward the real perpetrator. âDon't ever apologize for protecting your heart,â Darius says firmly, looking down into her eyes. âValerie set a trap, and I was reckless to lower my guard. But I promise you, Caroline, she will
âCaroline?â Darius's voice is hoarse, laced with raw awe. âYou have⊠wings.âCaroline opens her mouth, but her body goes limp as she collapses against Darius's chest, her skin glowing and burning to the touch. Her chest heaves with fast, uneven breaths.Darius looks down at her, his hand sliding up to wrap tightly around her as his arm drapes over her waist, pulling her flush against him.His fingers gently stroke her damp hair away from her face, tucking it behind her ears, then his thumb softly traces the smooth line of her cheekbone.âDarius⊠IâI just found out my dad is Hades. And I think the curse broke my mother's spell. It shattered whatever was hiding me.âDarius nods, suddenly recalling Aida's earlier words about Caroline's bloodline.âYou're burning up. Is the heat taking hold of you again?â Darius asks.Caroline shakes her head slowly before lying back, listening to Darius's steady heartbeat.After an intense silence, Caroline breaks it.âDarius, I have no idea how to make
As the kiss deepens, Darius finds himself fully hard inside Caroline once more. Breaking the kiss, he rests his forehead against hers, his breath hitching. âFuck, love... I'm hard again,â he rasps. âI know. Do you want me toâ?â she starts to ask, but Darius gently shakes his head. âLet me.â Without pulling his hard length out of her, he smoothly flips their positions, trapping her beneath him once more. They lose themselves in the heat all over again. Caroline moans and cries out, begging him for more as Darius grunts and growls at the tight squeeze of her walls clenching around him. He can never get enough of being buried inside her. Darius thrusts deep once more, and Carolineâs body goes limp as her third orgasm crashes over her. Her nails dig into his back, clawing at his skin as her grip tightens, but he doesn't slow down. He pounds deep into her, his mouth around one sensitive peak, sucking, while his free hand kneads the other. âAhâfuck!â Caroline cries out under his rel
I don't knock. I don't hear what Anna is saying. I push the door open with enough force to make the glass partition rattle. Adrianâs âdeadâ wife, what's her name again, Julianna, doesnât even flinch. She just looks at me as a slow, condescending smirk spreads across her face. âGet out,â I say, my
Angela: ~~~ âCassian, why are you looking at me like that? Did you do something to Adrian?â The words spill out before I can stop them; the air in the room has shifted, turning heavy. Cassian is staring at me with that dark, predatory gaze, which makes me afraid of him. âYou want to go back to h
Angel:~~~âGo. Now. I need you safe.â Cassian says, and I've never felt so useless.He wants us safe, but what about him? What if I don't get to see him again?I look into his eyes and almost protest, yet I know if I stay here, I will only be an extra burden.I let him go and follow Virus, and as
Author: ~~~ Angela is furious for two reasons. First, she can't believe that Cassian, this handsome devil, managed to outsmart her in her own game. Second, she is terrified by her own heart. She is supposed to hate him. She is supposed to feel nothing but disgust for him, especially after
