Chapter 57
Lan was insatiable.
Throughout the night, he'd woken me up at different intervals with a few whispered words, passionate touches and hot kisses to have his wicked way with me.
Even now he nuzzled the side of my neck. "How do you feel?" he murmured into my ear.
The early morning rays of sunlight teased the side of my face. Blinking open my groggy eyes, I looked up to meet his green gaze. They were the brightest I'd ever seen them. His face and composure reeked of satisfaction and happiness, and for a brief moment, a memory of him as a boy flashed across my mind.
Reaching up, I pushed a few stray locks away from his forehead and smiled at him. "A bit sore," I admitted.
He gave a small, apologetic smile, passing his thumb over the side of my face. "I'm sorry I kept you up last night."
The tips of my ears reddened. "Well... I'm not complaining."
A smile stretched his sculpted lips, and at the memory of those lips on me, I grew hot.

LAN__Fury shot through me, fast and hot. And right after Willow had explained how she'd arrived at the realization, I shot to my feet while holding my phone. Goddess, I needed to warn them immediately.To a startled Lev, I stormed out of the house, heading towards the spot with the signal.As I tore through the forest, my mind went back to the day I'd hired Andrew four years ago. Liam had put in a damn good word for him, boasted of his competence, and I just had to see the boy for myself.He'd proved worth his salt and I'd given him the job as the castle's technical head of security. An action I now regret.It was all f*cking convenient. Someone like Andrew would be at a place to control who or what went into the castle secretly. He knew the castle inside out, had had four good years to memorize it just from studying those security footages, and simply existing as a guest in the castle.I broke out of the forest with a furious

LAN__The next day Lev took me over to the mines.His voice sounded beside me as we trudged along the snowy tracks. "Now, Mikhail is not... I will say, the friendliest of persons. He can be a mean son of a bitch sometimes but as long as you work good, he will not disturb you."Although the lycan in me despised answering to anyone, I nodded quietly to his statement, saying nothing more. I needed to make money, so I would make it regardless of any obstacles... or nuisances I might face. Coming out of my thoughts, I tried to focus on what Lev was saying."...We had gone to the same secondary school. I was a bit surprised seeing him here after all those years. Turned out he was inheriting family business at the mines."Before I could say anything, the loud sound of drilling and metal on hard rock had me raising my head. Ahead of us, a large cliff rose into the horizon, blocking out the early morning rays of the sun.Lev muttered beside m

WILLOW __ Earlier that morning, I waited until Lan had left before I sprang down from bed, rushing over to the closet where I kept away a few plain blankets. I'd had the whole night to consider what I was about to do, and in order to set it to motion I needed some money, pronto. On our way down to Lev's the other day, I'd caught sight of some exotic embroideries placed on display. I looked down at the plain blankets before me now. If I could just make this into something worth paying money for... Lan was set to leave in about three days--if he made enough money from his mining job. And within those days I hoped I, too, would raise enough money to travel down the nearest research facility, find some base elements like sodium, and mercury hopefully, then steal--ahem, grab--a burner, conical flask, mortar/pistel; and create an apparating potion. The plants and insects it took to do that, I would surely find in the forests. Sucking in a breath, I call

My tongue felt limp in my mouth. After a few seconds dragged by, I croaked out a quiet, "I had to... pick up something from the... the shop."He eyed my flushed face, then his gaze slid down to the bag I clutched at my side. I thrust it behind me reflexively. His voice dropped to an even lower octave. "Really now? I want to see what you picked up."My fingers flexed over the strap in my hold. Thoughts ran haywire in my mind, my anxiety ratcheting up. I settled with a stuttered, "I can't--I can't show you."Silence stretched the air. He stared down at me for a long while before he turned and left, disappearing into the section that housed the rooms.I saw less of him for the rest of the day, and our conversations were limited. The next day, he left for work at the break of dawn. A gloomy feeling settled on my chest as I stood and set about my day. The feeling intensified when I went over to the living room and saw what was on the dinning table.Flowers.Going down to the table, I pick

The next morning could've marked the last day I woke up in Lan's arms.Could have. Not if I could help it.That morning I watched as he strapped himself with ammunition, jamming handguns into the leather holster around his waist. After he slid sharp daggers into the sides of his boots, he packed a light bag and we both headed down to Lev's. Lan must've informed him he now had enough funds for the travel, because the old man was already up and smiling.Lev spoke over the dark silence engulfing us. "Good morning, good morning! I see you are all set. We will be on our way now."Heclosedo the door behind him, drawing his coat tighter around his little form. Then he started to lead the way down the snowy path.Drifts of snow blew past me, leaving goosebumps in its wake. Beside me, Lan was a large wall of brooding silence. His face was cold and expressionless, a hand tucked into the pocket of his coat while the other held onto a small bag.I chased away the heavy feeling closing around my c

The air around me shifted and I blinked my eyes open to see where I was. Relief and horror battled for dominance within me.I had apparated into the middle of the central hall, in the midst of at least a hundred lycans.The noisy hall fell silent as every gaze reverted to where I stood. There was a momentary stretch of silence, then all eyes went feral and weapons were drawn. I panicked when the lycans started to shift into their beasts. Shooting up my hands in surrender, I yelled over the whole hall, "Listen! Your king is in danger. Your king," I repeated slowly. "Is in danger."A murmur rose up in the room. Around the wide and luxurious space, warriors and omegas looked on at me with a mixture of anger and distrust. Someone shouted, "What have you done with our king?!" The murmurs increased.Fury suddenly bubbled in my chest. "Quiet!" My voice cut through the hall, rendering it silent. I marched over to stand on a high surface, making sure everyone saw me. "The vampires have a plan

After they'd all seemed really determined to hug and query the life out of me, I stood in the midst of my aunts as they ran their gazes over me, still a tad disbelieving. Familiar sights surrounded me, the beige walls of the living room, the black grandfather clock in shape of a pointy hat, bats, rats and other familiars hastily moving around the wide space. But all this did nothing to contain the anxiety turning my stomach inside out, they only heightened it: because it brought to attention how I could lose everything, everyone, in a blink of an eye if king Dmitri prevailed. I'd told my aunts about everything, from the vampire king's plan down to my gift from Hecate, but the first thing Maren asked was, "You and king Lan are mates?" A sharp breath tore out of me. "Guys! We need to concentrate. The elixir is almost done and at any moment, th-the zombies of our past ancestors would come hunting us down." Aradia scoffed. "Lowe, the lycans hunted us in the past, tortured us. You can't

LAN__My eyes were trained on the window, watching the places we rode past. The clouds darkened overhead and the distant rumble of thunder sounded at a distance, an ominous flash of lightning forking across the sky. The noise in the transit increased, humans complaining about the weather.Time dragged by before we came to a stop at a station. Everyone stood and alighted, chattering as they went by. The noise flew past me, my focus on what I was about to do.Grabbing my bag from the racks above, I went out into the dark. I hailed a cab and told the driver my destination. And I might as well have told him I had a ticking time bomb on me, because his reaction was astounding. He paled, his mouth opening and closing numerous times, then he settled on a stuttered, "A-are you... are you s-sure?"I rose a brow, saying nothing. He faced ahead and started the engine, driving down the far side of Uglich.Reclining, I listened into the silence.A few moments later, we were driving down a narrow
