Love. Loyalty. Immortality*****Twodecades later"You're my king, you'd do it anyway," Basilea laughed as she sped up, fleeing, leaving me behind with her pet dragon."Oh, now you're just testing me, my queen." I teased the second I reached her side.We were roaming the hellish sky. It was our favorite pastime the moment Basilea was able to spread her wings and fly with confidence. Brontes, her favorite pet dragon would accompany us. We'd fly to take our minds off, and we grew closer to each other with every passing year. Even with decades behind us, we still find it exciting to spend time with each other. Always finding
Mate bond. It's scary when you actuallyshareda heart. The fear of knowing that you are responsible for your mate's life, for his future, and that when you die, he too will meet his demise.Despite what he told me, deep down I was not sure that I was worthy. I am a lesser being, a demon succubus. Despite that he's fallen, he was still an angel. We are creatures that should never be bonded, let alone shared a heart.*****A week after my resurrection, I have been veering off-topic. I didn't want to discuss our bond. The last time we did it was the day after my death when Gerold came to us and basically told us everything that cemented my worry about his future.There was
When you love your mate to her existence, you're doomed. And when Basilea was fading away, I knew I was going to lose her and myself.I didn't want her gone. I needed her, she was my life. How was I to function without her now? How was I to live without her, after knowing how good it was with her in it?*****This was not hell, this was worse than hell. This was another heaven's way of torturing me after casting me down to hell. My head was not functioning, it hurts too fucking much. My heart felt like it was ripped apart, shredded to pieces until reality meant nothing anymore.Basilea was the only focus, everything else was unimportant background noise. I didn't care, I just want her to wake up. I
Everything is easier with a mate. I know this because I've seen it before with king Ranulf and his human-werewolf-mate, Rain, then I saw it again with Magnus, and his lovers Gerold and Savaric.It's like they have their language and I neverthinkI'dexperiencedit until I met Armand.*****"I could never get enough of you," he whispered the second he was inside me. "I missed you," he lightly bit the crook of my neck and I moaned his name louder. We've done this move a thousand times before, but it always feels like the first time with Armand. Maybe I've gone weak with the love we share between us, but I needed him as I needed sex to survive.
I'd never considered myself to be her mate when I saw her for the first time. But now that I could I know that I have fallen for her, deeply and madly.I'd do anything for her, and when I heard her claim me as her mate, I wanted nothing more than to be hers. For however long our eternal life might be.*****"Are you sure we're safe here? I think you should hurry up and we can go back after you patched him up. This place stinks of elves, I don't like it."I tried to open my eyes, but my body felt like I'd been squashed by a dragon, my bones hurt, and my head pounded with pain. I looked across, half-lidded, and saw Savaric whispering louder making sure that Magnus was listening to him. I saw hi
When the need to survive was strong, the will to fight was even stronger. I need to save him, I need to get my Armand away from the deranged elven king.Wings or no wings, I will try my hardest to save him, the fallen angeldeserveshis freedom. He will not wither away in a cold, filthy dungeon.*****Tula was back to help me get dressed, the dark green color was starting to annoy me but I let her do her job. It was not her fault that I was in such a position though I did ask her about Nicodemus and Tordis and the other Concubi demons within the palatial walls."I didn't remember your family reign much, my parents didn't survive the great slaughter. I was young when I ar
