Sinful Desires: Fatal bonds Chapter 26— Playing Dangerous games
The door to Aldric’s room shut with a quiet click.The sound echoed.I was still sitting on the edge of his bed, the faint copper taste of blood lingering at the back of my throat. Aldric stood in front of me, staring.He wasn't starting at my injuries, but at my lips, his eyes were dark and I felt my skin flare."You kissed him" Aldric wasn't asking a question.The accusation in his voice made my stomach flip.I swallowed nervously. “You saw?”His jaw tightened, hand coming up slowly, thumb brushing across my lower lip. Not tender, more like testing, thinking and considering implications.“As if I could not smell it,” he murmured.There it was.That sharp, territorial note in his voice.“You let him touch you.”My heart beat faster. “You don't tell me what to do Aldric.”His eyes lifted to mine.“I do.”The air shifted.His thumb pressed harder against my lip, rubbing slowly as if trying to erase something invisible. His scent wrapped around me, dark cedar and smoke, overwhelming and
Sinful Desires: Fatal bonds CHAPTER 24— Hurt
I did not even have time to process the tearing pain in my chest.Before I could understand why Aldric’s name had surfaced so violently in my heart, I felt it.His presence. A not so subtle presence at that.The night, which had been cool and almost tender beneath the moonlight, turned heavy. The bridge seemed to shrink. The wind stilled as if it too was waiting.Seraphiel’s arms were still around me.My fingers were still curled into his coat.And then I saw him.Aldric.Marching toward us.His charcoal black hair moved slightly with his steps, shoulder length and untamed, framing a face carved from something colder than stone. His eyes were darker than I had ever seen them. Not simply cold.Livid.For a brief second, something else flickered in them.Something sharp and human.Hurt.It vanished before I could be certain it had ever existed.My body locked.Seraphiel did not move away from me.He only turned his head slightly, lips curling faintly.“Well,” he said softly near my ear.
Sinful Desires: Fatal bonds CHAPTER 24— What about Aldric
I did not sign my name that night.I walked back to my room and sat on the edge of my bed, staring at the blank parchment meant for werewolf defense registration.The ink had dried in its well, my hands were cold.Seraphiel’s last words would not leave me alone.A possibility that expired.Expired.As if what we had was something fragile and perishable. As if I had let it rot in my hands, which I had indeed made happen.I lay back slowly, staring at the ceiling. The academy felt different now. It felt empty, I felt empty.I told myself I had done the right thing.I told myself I chose my pack.I told myself I chose myself.So why did it feel like I had abandoned someone who had never once abandoned me?Seraphiel had listened when I spoke, he had touched me gently, he had never looked at me like I was a burden or an obligation, he had never treated me like a duty.Aldric had.The thought rose before I could stop it.Aldric who kissed me and left.Aldric who touched me only when it suit
Sinful Desires: Fatal bonds CHAPTER 23— Seraphiel's decision
This was a mistake.I knew it the moment I stepped into the shadows beyond the academy walls, the wind colder here, quieter. The path toward the old stone bridge that marked the edge of wolf territory felt longer than usual. My boots scraped against gravel, each step sounding too loud in my ears.I almost turned back three times.But I had already decided.If I was going to sign my name into werewolf defense, if I was going to stand against the vampires instead of lingering between both worlds like a confused stray, then I owed Seraphiel honesty. If I couldn't own up to a man I owed honesty? What good would I do in a battlefield? My heart, brain, and stomach twisted and churned.He was already there when I arrived.Leaning against the broken pillar near the bridge, silver hair loose over his shoulders, dressed in pale blue. The fading light caught on his pale skin, making him look almost unreal.“You look troubled, little wolf,” he said softly.He did not move toward me.That made it
Sinful Desires: Fatal bonds CHAPTER 22: Bold decision
For the first time in what felt like forever, I did not look for him. I didn't go into the corridors or the training grounds, I didn't look into the reflection of polished glass where I'd silently cross my heart hoping to glimpse a sight of him, the sight of him that made my heart race, just hoping he'd appear behind me like some silent gravity I'd never be able to escape from.I stayed away from Aldric.The decision felt like peeling skin from bone.It was not anger. Not exactly. It was exhaustion.I had loved him like a drowning man loves air. Desperately. Blindly. As if he had been the only solid thing in a world that had taken everything from me.But why?That question haunted me.Why Aldric?Was it because he was powerful? Because he stood at the top of a hierarchy no one dared challenge? Because when he looked at me, even rarely, I felt chosen?Or was it because he had been the first person who did not see me as entirely useless?I did not know.And that frightened me.Love shou
Sinful Desires: Fatal bonds CHAPTER 21— A misunderstood Aldric
Lyra noticed, of course. She walked in before the kiss happened, I didn't know if to be glad or disappointed. Aldric just walked away from me like nothing had happened and then I was left to pick up my unrequited love and wait for him to reciprocate hopefully. But Lyra, she had always noticed what I did not yet have the courage to admit. She sat across from me in the mess hall, fork paused halfway to her mouth, eyes sharp as ever. Our friendship was new, she was from a third rate pack who had joined the council by merit.“You are ridiculous,” she said when I told her about the uniform and Aldric's favour.She replied never hiding the affection in the roll of her voice. “Do you know how you look? Like a wolf who got lost and found a crown instead of a pack.”“You are supposed to console me,” I mumbled.She snorted. “Sorry. Consolation counselling is not in my skill set. But if it helps, the way Aldric looks at you is not entirely neutral. It is not pity. It is not approval. It is… I d
