Lana’s POV

It’s clear she loves that blonde man and is dedicated to being with him, surely her parents might eventually forgive a scandal? But faking her own death?

    Lana’s POVI’m caught in time. Frozen in the moment that Delia Thorne and her partner entered the cave. I was relieved to see her, but couldn’t understand why she would need to abandon her family for love. It’s clear she loves that blonde man and is dedicated to being with him, surely her parents might eventually forgive a scandal? But faking her own death?I’ve barely time to think it through when the blonde man snarls that at least Delia knew what she was choosing. Thade was on in him in a blur. A huge, black blur of fur. It was two wolves that tumbled into the water. Delia shifted into a wolf, her body stretching out and shimmering with blinding blue power. I shield my eyes with my arm with a scream. I can hear screaming, and it’s mine. Shocked as adrenaline floods my body.What do I do. Thade is a wolf. Delia is a wolf. People can turn into Wolves? They all act as though this is normal but Thade is in the water and the cave is filled with splashing and snarls. Do I go towards them

    We tumble down into the pool, I won’t draw his blood but I hold him, pinned beneath the water. Then we leap. Kalik is a large black wolf and we land easily back in the cave. Our eyes adjusting to the dusky light. There’s another wolf before, silver like the moon, Lady Delia. I growl and she tries to refuse my command. But I am more than Alpha of my pack, my lineage descends from the Kings. She lifts a paw, ready to bow her head in submission as her mate twists in the pool and starts climbing out.But I look past her, hackles raised as three large wolves appear at the entrance, snarling. We cannot draw their blood on the sacred ground. I can hear Lana’s scream, her panic as she stands, watching something she has no understanding of. I want to go to her, but first we have the intruders to manage. I walk over to them, strides heavy, paws landing hard in the dirt. My presence grows with every step as Kalik takes over. We’re larger than most wolves, as tall as most horses with feet that s

  • The Bride Wore Blood   23 - Two Years Ago: Bitch

    I stand at the entrance to the chamber, the water pouring behind me. Alert to the sense of another Wolf approaching. My awareness brushes his, in a way that makes Kalik bristle and snarl. I expect him to walk away, to sense me hear and leave. But he persists. He appears as a shadow in the long tunnel that leads to the world outside. A shadow that grows as he advances. He’s taller than me, but I’m heavier. His human body is wirey, lean where mine is corded with muscles. I train harder than another other Wolves I know, I’m a Knight Commander, there are times when I can’t let Kalik take form. Not without destroying our secrets.‘Name yourself,’ my voice is a low growl that echoes down the hall. He doesn’t hesitate at the sound of my voice, and now both me and Kalik are really pissed off. ‘NAME!’ It’s a snarled order as he steps into the faint light of the magelight. He’s younger than I am, somewhere in his twenties. Blonde, with his hair cut short along both sides above his ears. Usually

  • The Bride Wore Blood   22 - Two Years Ago: Secrets

    Thade’s POVI’ve never felt this overwhelming wave of tenderness before. I find myself treating Lana like some kind of Princess. Looking after her, we’re both exhausted as we climb out of the water, basking on the rocks as our skin dries in the hot air. She looked ready to drop, even before I stole her innocence. Now, she’s so soft and malleable, her eyes are heavy with sleep. She’s hunched over, unused to being naked. Her arms wrapped around her endless legs that shimmer like molten gold in the mage light. She’s so gorgeous, her beautiful curves spilling out in all of the right places. Her skin is clear, smooth and creamy and Kilak is unhappy that I didn’t mark her. There will be time, I assure him. I can’t terrify the poor girl. She doesn’t know about Werewolves and the Otherworld that exists within Illure. She’s watching me and I smile back at her, reassuring. Inside, I’m tied in knots. With every passing hour, the burden of sharing my secrets grows heavier. I should have told he

  • The Bride Wore Blood   21 - Five Years Ago: Golden

    The soft whimper escapes me as I watch him. My arms are wrapped around his shoulders, my legs around his waist, the warm waters lap around my body. I’m caught up in him, held in his strong grip as his hands slide over my skin, as though he wants to explore me all over again. I know the feeling. I want to run my hands over every part of him. The cave walls shimmer with the reflected light, propped up by our belongings. The sound of crashing water echoes, filling my senses as I study his face. The hard angle of his cheekbones and the curls of his beard. His dark hair is wild, ruffled and messy as he bows his head against mine again. His chest rising in ragged gasps.‘Otherworld,’ he hisses, so soon after telling me he’s going to take me. I’m ready, body tense as I prepare. I’ve always been told it will hurt, but it’s a pain I’ll endure for Thade. My breathing is ragged and I shiver, still coming down from my own undoing. He’s driven me beyond the brink of lust and I want the same for h

  • The Bride Wore Blood   20 - Two Years Ago: Don’t Stop

    He moves quickly, cupping my face between his hands. His thumbs stroked my jawline, fingers splayed down the back of my neck. His grey eyes shift, as though the rain clouds are echoed in them as he stares at him, his breath ragged.‘Lana, if we start something tonight, I don’t know if I’ll be able to stop.’ He bows his forehead against mine and I close my eyes, our breath intermingled. All my discomfort forgotten as I’m wrapped up in the scent of him. Horse and woodsmoke, and undertone of sweat that drives me crazy. Desire washes over me, more certainly than the water from the river. ‘Then don’t stop,’ I reach up, holding my hands over his. I’m not stupid, I know what he means, he’ll take my innocence; and what shocks me the most is how little I care.He gives a slight shake of his head, his hair brushing my forehead, tickling as heat spreads through my body, staring in my core. Warming me, despite the stupid soaking clothes and the exhaustion that I felt in my bones. ‘You deserve a
