The L word has been dropped!!!
Hunter kisses me, his mouth seeking, and his hands moving from the water to cup my face. I don’t care that it’s wet. All I care about is the feeling of him on my lips and his hands on me. I need to feel him, to feel our bond. It’s growing stronger and stronger inside of me that I don’t think I can hold off for any longer. I don’t think I can keep denying this unbelievably strong connection of ours. Oh goddess. His lips are all over my mouth, his kisses starting out soft and teasing, but after a few seconds, they start to cling on mine and it becomes possessive. He’s demanding for more and I happily give it to him, opening my mouth wider and his tongue invades mine. It’s magic. Everything about this. Everything about him. His body shifts closer and a gasp escapes my lips that he instantly swallows. His… hardness. I can feel it pressed against my stomach. Oh my god. Heat traveled all throughout my body at the thought of him being so close to me. It would take him little to no
TW: Violence. Please read with caution. King Hunter Beowulf I didn’t expect for her to bring down her walls and then build them back up even higher this time, but I was determined to find her and let her know that I wasn’t going to go away no matter how high or how strong she makes it. I will always tear down each one. Uncertainty traveled through my veins when I'd been running for quite some time. It was getting darker and darker and I was afraid that she had gotten lost. I needed to find her immediately. I wish she hadn’t gone away so fast and so far, but I understood her sentiments too. I might have pushed her a little too much and a little too early and guilt lingered in me because of it. I know now that I have to be more aware around her, that I needed to make sure she wasn’t having any second thoughts before going for anything. I pushed too far and in turn, she took a few steps back from me. Excalibur lifted his head to the night sky and sucked in a lungful of air,
The thing about nightmares is that sometimes you never know if they’re real or fake. And even when you do know that it’s not real, it doesn’t mean it makes it any less scary or terrifying. The monsters are still there, lurking in the shadows or disguising themselves as normal people. They’re just waiting, analyzing, trying to find out when is the right time to come and bring you down. And sometimes when you least expect it, that’s when they attack. — “Ah!” My heart was racing inside my chest, my vision was blurry, and I felt like my hands were attached to some wires. When I blinked my eyes rapidly a few more times, that’s when I realized where I was. White walls, white beds, and dextrose in my hands. We were at the castle’s infirmary. “Hailey! You’re awake!” The voice came from the side, but the high-pitch sound made my ears hurt, my head wincing at the sudden invasion in my eardrums. I placed my hands over my ears and crouched down. “Sorry, sorry…” I heard someo
I knew ‘training’ to become a Queen would take some serious work and it definitely wouldn’t happen overnight, or not even a week, but I definitely did not expect it to be this strenuous – physically, emotionally, and mentally. Carolina tapped the table with her finger, bringing my attention back to her, and she gave me a raised brow as if waiting for me to realize what I’m doing wrong. When I just blink at her for the fifth time, she gives up and lets out a sigh. “Posture, Hailey! Chest out, chin up, and back straight.” Carolina gave me a strict smile and I quickly shook my bones and stiffen my body up. “Not that stiff, Hailey.” She corrects me again and I try not to roll my eyes at all the absurd rules. Shouldn’t a Queen be able to sit and stand however she wants? Wouldn’t they be the ones to have to adjust to her? “A Queen is very well-respected, so much so that they become the ones that are looked up to by almost everyone. This in turn puts you in a very bright spotlight
King Hunter Beowulf Hailey was relentless, and damn did I love that about her. I had only been teaching her for a couple of days but she absorbed everything I taught her with so much ease that fighting with her right now was actually taking more effort than I thought I would need. I mean, I know I could beat her with my hands tied behind my back and my eyes blindfolded, but I give her some allowance and she’s really using all of her to try and beat me. She let out another loud growl as her right hand came up and hit me on the side, dragging me down to the ground and in a blink of an eye, she’s already on top of me, her fangs sharp and her claws unstoppable. Her eyes are filled with anger, and it’s nothing like I’ve ever seen before. Maybe that night when we were attacked, but still, there was something different about it, like this wasn’t just training for her. This was something else. Shit. Was she mad at me? I quickly turned the tables and used more strength to capture her.
Hunter is perfect. I’ve tried so hard to deny that for weeks being here with him, telling myself over and over that I didn’t need him, that this was just the bond forcing me to like him, but in the end it was obvious I had just been lying to myself this whole time. I can no longer lie to myself. I love him. I love the way he cares for me, the way he makes an effort to see me and not just the facade I show to others, the way he makes sure I know that I am worth it and that he would do everything to keep reminding me that over and over again. I guess I was just blinded by my own heartbreak, forcing myself to believe that the mate bond was wrong and shouldn’t be trusted, though slowly but surely, Hunter had gone out of his way to make sure I never have to think that way again. He does it by holding me in his arms like this, our bodies pressed against each other, warmth traveling both of us, and the feeling of his soft lips against mine. His hands fell to my hips as he pressed my bod
Kylo Knight My brother was completely unhinged. In the days following Hailey's departure, he had done nothing but figure out a way to get her back. Meanwhile, all I could do was reel in what I had done and accept my fate that even if I was her mate, she was better off with somebody else. Still, though, a part of me couldn't help but think about that phrase they always say — if it's meant to be it will be or if you love her, let her go. If she comes back, then she's all yours. That was what I kept telling myself as each day passed without her. Though I couldn't deny that every single day that did pass and there didn't seem to be any signs of her coming back, I couldn't help but feel heartbroken. I tried to distract myself, busying myself with everything around me, but no matter what I did, my thoughts just kept coming back to her. I ended up working at the Pack more than anybody else was actually supposed to. Even my parents noticed this, but they just chose not to comment on it.
Confusion. Disorder. Madness. Those were just the few things that I felt as soon as Hunter and I got out of the training grounds. From having the most beautiful and intimate time together, in the blink of an eye, we were thrusted into a world of chaos. "Get on my back, we have to run!" Hunter instructed me and though I was still processing what was happening, the desperation in Hunter's eyes was enough for me to quickly follow him. As soon as he had me steady on his back, he started to run. The speed was nothing I've ever experienced a human form to have, but this is him we're talking about. He pinned me down on the ground while he was human and I was in wolf form. "Hunter, what's happening?!" I asked him, but he didn't respond. I knew not to push it any further. He would tell me once he has the answers to my questions. We arrived at my room which was on the other side in less than five minutes, which would usually take about fifteen minutes at a normal pace. "Pack your thi
