EMBER’S POV

“You’re insane,” I manage, wiping my eyes.

“For you. Comprehensively.” He pulls me back in against his chest, and I go, easy this time, no bracing left in me. “I love you. I should have said it before the candles and the heart attack. I love you, Ember. More than my own life. More than my own sense, clearly.”

“I love you too.” I tuck my face into his neck. Then, because I can’t help it: “A little less than you love me, though.”

He goes still. “Excuse me?”

  • TRADING MY CHEATING HUSBAND FOR THE LYCAN KING   CHAPTER 306: WE FOUND DEVIKA

    EMBER’S POVKnox sits up properly now, and there’s something almost careful in how he does it, the way you move when you’re about to set something down that might break.“We found Devika.” He says it plain. “Your mother.”The whole world tilts. I’m gripping his arm before I’ve decided to.“You — what? Where? How? Is she—”“Found is a strong word.” He covers my hand with his, steadying. “We haven’t got her. But Nathaniel’s been working it since before we left Alaska, and he turned up a pattern. There’s a place she’s been circling. A casino, in the next city over, big and ugly and exactly the kind of golden trap a woman like your mother can’t stay away from. She’s there every Friday, regular as a tide.” His jaw sets. “I intend to go and collect her.”“I’m coming.”“And that—” Knox drops his head back with a groan, “—is exactly why I didn’t want to tell you yet.”“Knox.”“There’s a plan, Ember. Nathaniel has eyes on the place; he’s got the patterns; we don’t just walk in the front door a

Then, because I can’t help it: “A little less than you love me, though.”He goes still. “Excuse me?”“It’s just math. You said more than your own life. I love you a normal, healthy amount. Possibly slightly above average.”“Slightly above—” He pulls back, genuinely affronted, and it’s so funny on his terrifying face that I start laughing again. “I orchestrated a heart attack and a hundred candles and got Marjorie to lie to your face, and you love me a slightly above average amount?”“The candles were nice,” I concede. “I’ll bump it to moderately above average.”“Moderately.”“Don’t push it or I’ll go back to slightly.”H

    EMBER’S POVHe tilts my chin up.“So here’s what’s going to happen. You have my entire library at your disposal. Every record this family has ever kept. You have my best teachers, the finest in my territory, and you’ll have them the second you want them. And physical strength? Easy.” His eyes gleam. “I’ll teach you combat myself. Personally. Every dirty trick I know, every way there is to win a fight you have no business winning, because Goddess knows I’ve won enough of those. I will pour everything I am into making you exactly as dangerous as you already secretly are.”He shakes his head, and there’s something almost fond in it, almost awed.“Because Sapphire might come from a long line of warriors. Fine. Good for her. But I have never in my entire life met a woman as stubborn, as unrelenting, as flatly impossible to kill as the one in my arms right now. She thinks you’re not worthy of her? She’s got it backwards. She has no idea what she’s been put inside of.”His words strike a mat

    EMBER’S POV“Ember—”“And it hurt. Because all this while, I’ve tried so hard to be that one thing. To prove everyone wrong about what they think I am. I’ve tried to be worthy, Knox.” And here it comes, the real thing, the bottom of it, and the tears are back. “Worthy. Just—worthy. Of being loved properly, for once. Of being a mother someday, a good one, not like mine. Of being someone who rose above all of it, the eight years with Gale and all of it, someone who mattered. I’ve spent my whole life clawing toward worthy. And this—this thing inside me, this ancient, powerful thing that’s supposed to be the answer to everything—looked at me and called me nothing.” I press my hand to my chest, to the place where she lives, quiet now, probably smug too. “Why give me this if I’m useless? Why put something that enormous inside someone too small to hold it? What is the point of me?”Knox is quiet for a long moment.And when he speaks, his voice is low, even, and absolutely certain.He bypasse

    EMBER’S POV“Do you—” I pick at a thread on the blanket, not looking at him. “Do you think I’m strong enough?”“Strong enough?”“For my powers. For any of it.” The words come harder than I expect, and my cheeks go hot, almost embarrassed. “Because I don’t think you do. Yesterday, when you got mad, I think that’s the real reason you were so scared I’d die using them. Why you’re so scared. Because, maybe, deep down, you think I’m fragile. Some little breakable thing that needs saving. That can’t be trusted to handle what’s inside her without it killing her.” I make myself say the worst of it. “That I’m useless. Worthless. Without you, or without the wolf. That on my own, I’m just nothing.”His whole body goes rigid under me.“Don’t.” His voice comes out hard. “Don’t you ever use that word about yourself. Useless. Where the hell did that come from?”“Because it’s true.”“It is not—”“You might not say it.” I pull back to look at him, and now I’m the one with the hard edge, all the old wo

    EMBER’S POVHe takes my entire weight, sinking to the floor with me until we are tangled together on the thick blanket, right in the centre of that warm, golden pool of candlelight.He pulls me across his thighs, shifting his massive frame until I am completely caged in his lap.He is overwhelmingly large, a man built for violence, handling me like I am made of spun glass.One of his heavy, warm hands slides under my hair, his long fingers cupping the sensitive nape of my neck to tuck my head under his chin.His other arm bands tight around my waist, pressing me flush against the solid wall of his chest.He buries his face in the curve of my neck, inhaling deeply as if my scent were oxygen, holding me securely.I grip his shirt, utterly enveloped by his blinding heat and the grounding, intoxicating scent of him.His thumb traces slow, devastatingly gentle circles against my spine, anchoring me to the floor, to the room, to him.Under my ear, his heartbeat is a steady, enormous drum, a

I felt it down to my
