Aria's pov

I awoke lying on Jasper's chest and noticed that I had drooled all over him.

Lifting my head and wiping my mouth I apologized when he looked down at the damp spot.

Chuckling he said, “You slept deeply, Aria. It's perfectly acceptable.”

“I need to head to the river and wash up,” I murmured as I hopped off him and briefly appraised him with my eyes.

He was built, but not as large as the other warriors I had seen. He was also covered in numerous love bites I had given him.

  • Phoenix Rising the Rise of the Sacred Shewolf    Chapter 24 Returning to the Kingdom

    Aria's pov I grinned at my mate as we ran across the turrets, my hair whipping in the breeze. While we searched together for an area to jump from, my heart pounded recklessly in my chest. Seeing Jasper jump over the ledge I stopped and peered over to have him grab me and take me down a set of constructed stairs. “Did you know about these?” “Of course, I believe that Nathan has something for you.” We landed on the ground. He gestured with his head and I turned to see Nathan standing there holding my mother's blade and gasped. “Jasper, I told the guards who wanted better treatment to meet us at the Bone Forest,” he asserted as he handed over my knife. “Light her up, my love.” Glancing at Jasper, I told him to get Nathan out safely, and I lifted my hand to call my flame. The vegetation around the castle was engulfed in fire that spread quickly up the vines that clung to the walls. “Are you okay and not worn?” Glancing at Jasper running beside me I chuckled and said, “I feel

    Aria's pov “Isn't that the omega bitch who started the fire and destroyed the Ironclaw Pack lands?” One guard growled and the one next to him curled his lip and nodded. “Alpha will want her wolf's hide so we should take her to the cages with the others.” Jasper was watching them all with calculating eyes and I shook my head at him. “You can't beat them all or you or I will be shot,” I murmured in worry. I could sense his anger crackling and held his wrist. “I know that you are a well-trained warrior but part of being a good warrior is knowing when to back down,” I stressed adamantly as the guards gestured with their rifles for us to leave the river. “Avert your eyes, my mate doesn't have any clothes,” Jasper asserted firmly and the guards ignored him as I climbed up the riverbank. I could feel their eyes peering at me everywhere. “Good job boys, but let them get dressed,” Nathan stated, and I glared at him in disbelief as he walked towards me with his arms full of clot

He was built, but not as large as the other warriors I had seen. He was also covered in numerous love bites I had given him. “Dynamite comes in small packages,” I sighed softly and heard him laugh. “Told you I wasn't petite, silly,” he asserted as he stood and stretched while I watched his muscles ripple. “Hmm,” I murmured in appreciation. “You have convinced me,” I purred as I wrapped my arms around his waist from behind and laid my cheek on his hair covering his upper back. He encompassed my hands and intertwined our fingers. “I love you my sweet and beautiful fire queen. We need to name our newly acquired kingdom,” h

    Aria's pov “Allow me to escort you to your cave,” Jasper offered. “I want to take a walk. You can join me if you like,” I muttered and rubbed my chest because my heart was racing due to his odd possessive behavior. I hurried to the ladder and descended it quickly then held it as Jasper came down the rungs. When he joined me he stood before me and grabbed my hand. We froze as we watched a shiny white butterfly flutter between us and then land on our clasped hands. “That's strange…a butterfly out at night,” he said softly and I added, “It's glowing too.” “Hmm maybe it's a sign from the Moon Goddess herself,” Jasper offered and I shook our hands to get it off but the damn bug stayed glued on. Laughing at me, Jasper said, “Guess she's stressing her point that we should stick together.” I side-eyed him curiously, then exhaled softly when he kissed my temple, because it was sweet and caused me to shiver, but not from coldness. “JASPER!” Wisdom shouted out into the night an

    Jasper Durin's pov My half-brother's death didn't sadden me but I felt Aria's broken heart, and that was painful. Not being able to comprehend why she even liked the pale-skinned cold bastard I shook my head while I dragged his corpse across the bridge to his former kingdom. The guards were all shocked to see their king dead. “Ironclaw shot at him and you know they poisoned their bullets,” I growled sourly. “Will you now lead us?” Several of them asked and I told them that it was up to my grandfather since he was the original Dire Wolf King before my half-brother's and my father was. We had different mothers because that's how my grandfather raised our dad and then us, a womanizer. Entering his chamber I wasn't surprised by him being naked. He was in bed and surrounded by several naked women. Balder shooed them out after I told him Malrik had died. When he told me after they left that I must have a queen to become king, I baulked at first not believing I had heard him correct

    Aria's pov Numb, that's what I was feeling as I walked beside Nathan to the Witches Gulch. “Nathan, I thought bullets didn't kill our kind, especially a Dire Wolf King,” I commented. Shaking his head Nathan sighed, “Normally that is true but Ironclaw uses silver bullets dipped in wolfsbane so they're deadly. I'm sorry you lost Malrik, you both seemed close.” My stomach rumbled and I pinched my mouth while Nathan rummaged through his pockets and handed me a meat stick. Taking it, I thanked him. “The terrain of the Veilspare is bipolar. You have valleys, cliffs, thick forests, and then dead areas,” I huffed. He chuckled softly and informed me that the Gulch was getting close. Eyeing him strangely at how he knew that he tapped the side of his nose and explained that he could smell the dead. I frowned at him and continued forward. Coming upon the first dead body my brow furrowed. “Alpha!” Wisdom shouted. “The king is searching for you!” Hella added and I stopped as they rushed

    Aria's pov Following Jasper since he was familiar with the location I asked him what the Gulch was. “Is it just a rock formation or are there actual witches?” Glancing back at me he chuckled and said, “A bit of both plus exiled wolves.” “Great,” I muttered as I continued into the darkening

    Aria's pov Seeing Hella leave, I glanced back at Malrik wishing he would smile again. It had given me butterflies in my stomach and shocked me at how much it enhanced his attractiveness. “Why are you eyeing me like I'm edible? Are you hungry?” He questioned, making me laugh while I sipped the c

    Aria’s pov Following Darian up a curved stone staircase I was hesitant about sleeping on the same floor as him. Reaching the second floor I noticed Mora entering one of the doors. When she glanced back and saw me her eyes narrowed at Darian then returned to me full of haughtiness. “Why aren'

    Aria’s pov I realized that I was naked, my clothes had burned off me leaving my skin unblemished. Embarrassment rose to my cheeks while I ran to the pack's clothesline to grab something to wear. Groaning at the sight of the bare line, I paused briefly, my wolf sigil pulsating. My body sudde
