LOGINWhen I opened my eyes again, it took a lot of effort to even feel my body again. It was as if I had reached my maximum limit of exertion and consumed every ounce of energy in my body. In fact, I had the distinct impression that I had only woken up because things were a little noisy outside.
Well, it wasn't like I needed to get up right now, so I just curled up even more under the sheets. Even Noah was tired, so prob
“Why… Why is my hair this color?” I grabbed the white strand, seemingly the only one among the rest of my brown hair, and I pulled it hard enough to make my scalp hurt, unable to believe that it was actually stuck to my head “How did this happen?”“You’ve always had it.” Garrett laughed “When you were born, you had this white curl on your head. We thought you’d inherit your mother’s hair, but everything else grew brown.” There was a lot of nostalgia in his words, but I was too shocked to pay attention.“How… How is this possible…?” I continued running my fingers through that strand of hair “I never…”“Whoever helped the Moonjoys kidnap you wasn’t stupid.” Flora sighed “After all, how could they raise you among the Silverhearts without hiding these little clues in your appearance? Even if they cut your hair, it would
“Three days?” I blinked, wondering if I had misunderstood what Elowyn had just told me “I was unconscious that whole time?”We were all sitting around the bed where I had woken up, after I had put some food in my stomach and taken a bath. It was still a little hard for me to believe that, for the second time in my life, I had been in a coma for so long, but the more I regained feeling in my body, the more it made sense. My head was heavy, my stomach ached with hunger, and my body was so weak that I needed Elowyn's help to even walk to the bathtub.“What happened?” I asked, meeting their worried gazes “I… I remember trying to get out of that underground chamber, but… I threw something up…” I recalled, a shiver running down my spine “But… It didn’t look like blood. Or did I see wrong in the dark?”“No, you didn’t see it wrong.” Flora, who was already in the room after I returned from my bath, tapped her staff on the floor “It was… A symptom,” she murmured, leaving me more confused than
Oh, Goddess. I missed that face so, so much. That impatient frown, the way his lips would purse when he was about to scold me.Him.I missed him completely, as if half of me was missing."Swear!" he said through gritted teeth, but not angrily.He seemed… Distressed. Fear wasn't a word I was used to using when it came to Noah, but… that's how he seemed at that moment. Fearful and tormented, as if he had been tortured.“Tell me!” he insisted, one of his hands molding my face, while that look on his face made my heart ache; Why did he seem to be suffering? Who had hurt him? “Promise you’ll never run away again. Promise you’ll never abandon me again.” His voice was even deeper than usual, his intonation making it sound like he was begging, not ordering.Part of me knew something was wrong. There was a reason why I couldn't promise him that. Something between us, separating us. But, at that moment
I was lying face down on a bed and, judging by the way the sheets were caressing me whenever I moved, I was also naked. That should have been a warning sign, but I was so happy and content that I didn't even care. Goddess, I was so, so content that my chest felt like it was about to burst. Once, I didn't know how to name this feeling, but now I did.Love.I was overwhelmed by Noah's presence, immersed in his essence. I could smell his earthy and pine scent more intensely than I ever imagined possible. There was a slight, satisfying ache between my legs, but I could feel myself growing aroused, ready to have him again.Wait… Again?That thought certainly wasn't important. When I felt a movement beside me on the bed and a muscular arm wrap around my waist, I gave up
“Oh, Goddess…” Elowyn whimpered, breathless, when they finally parted “I prayed so much to be able to feel your kiss again… I love you so much…”“Elowyn…!” Garrett pressed their foreheads together, staring at her as if she were about to disappear. “How… How is this possible? I searched for you everywhere… And those bodies… The woman smelled of you… Even the smell of your blood…” he lamented “Please, tell me this isn’t just an illusion. I can’t bear to lose you again…”“They cornered me.” she cried “I don’t think they ever meant to attack the pack. They wanted to take you away from us. They knew I wouldn’t use a dangerous spell while Estelle was with me.” Elowyn’s voice broke &ldqu
“Mom?” Wayne murmured, the question sounding not only strangled, but also hesitant, vulnerable. Adjectives I never expected I would one day be able to use for someone like Garrett Nightmoor’s son.“Wayne.” she replied, her voice choked with emotion, one of her hands reaching for my shoulder as if she feared falling.“How…?” He took a step back, making me think the woman next to me wasn’t the only one feeling her body weaken from the shock “How is this possible…?”He was right. How was that even possible? Without understanding how it was possible, I stared at that woman's face, the same one I had known for months in her wild wolf form."Is what he's saying true?" I asked, incredulous "You... You rea
I was still lost in those strange sensations when Noah's kiss, as suddenly as it had begun, ended.My breathing was uneven, and my whole face was hot. And when I looked at Noah, I noticed he wasn't much different from m
The cabin was quieter than usual when I finally managed to reach it. For a wolf with a normal sense of smell, finding the place would have been a task of only a few moments, but now I was kind of lost in my new "home" and had no idea where Prince Noah could be.
For wolves, a wedding was more than a ceremony. It was an event for the entire pack. And, more than that, a way to celebrate and thank the Goddess for what many considered her greatest blessing: the mating bond. Proof that our souls were touched by the Goddess and
“Very good, child. Now we just need to put some hairpins in your hair. Tessa, give them to me.” the older woman who was getting me ready for the wedding said, causing the teenager who had come with her to run around the room, rummaging through the vario
