LOGINMy heart sank.Not again. Please not again…Before the feelings could take root, I shook my head and told myself he was being cautious about saying too much in front of Nora. That made sense; we hadn’t talked about what last night meant or what we might say to her, and the last thing either of us wa
Charlotte’s POVI woke up in the hotel bed with sunlight on my face and no memory of getting there. The sheets were pooled around my waist, my arm thrown up over my head, my mouth tasting like ash, suddenly reminding me that I hadn’t brushed me teeth before going to bed.Slowly, the events of last n
Jason’s POVI turned away from the window and rubbed the bridge of my nose with one shaking finger, letting out a small, slow breath that made my chest rattle.It was done.The blood tie was in place—my contact had told me as such a few days ago, in the middle of the night. A quick text slid in on m
Charlotte’s POVThis kiss was just as fierce as the one before, but deeper, more tender, like it was full of unspoken words. I pulled back just enough to breathe, my nose pressed to Kieran’s. He smelled like mint and something I couldn’t quite put my finger on, and his eyes were fixed on mine, half-
