THEODORE’S POV

Gravewind's growl doesn't fade — it grows teeth of its own inside my skull.

Protect her.

"No." I say out loud, to the empty air, to the trees, to whatever piece of my wolf has gone insane. My claws are still an inch from her throat. My arm is shaking, not from weakness, but from two hundred years of obedience breaking apart at once. "You don't give me orders. I give you orders."

Gravewind claws back, and this time it isn't a growl — it's pain, real pain, like something inside my

  • The Nun's Lustful Desire    CHAPTER 11 — The Girl Who Made Me Want to Live

    THEODORE’S POVThe clearing stays empty no matter how many times I search for it.I've searched these trees for hours, retracing the same broken path while the falling snow buries every trace of her scent. My chest burns. My hands shake—not from the cold, never the cold. I press my palm onto the ground where she lay, searching for anything. A strand of hair. A trace of her heartbeat. Anything.But there’s nothing."Where is she," I say out loud, to no one, to the trees, to the wolf pacing behind my ribs. "Tell me where she is."Gravewind doesn't answer.That’s wrong. He always answers. Even when I beg him to stop, he growls, snarls, demands blood. For two hundred years, his voice has been louder than my hatred. Now there is only silence in my chest—so deep, it feels like something inside me has died.I laugh, but it breaks into something close to a sob.For decades, I prayed for death. I welcomed fifteen dragons tearing my throat open. I wanted it. I never feared it. But now, one stra

  • The Nun's Lustful Desire    CHAPTER 10 — The Walls Remember You

    ANGEL’S POVThe snow slowly swallows his shadow as he leaves me to die.I truly believe this is the end. Then, in the next second, my body begins coming apart. I look at my hands. They dissolve into drifting smoke, my fingers coming apart into thin strands of light, like frost melting away from a window under the sun. I try to scream, but no sound comes out. The forest, the moon, and the proud snowman who throws me away like garbage all stretch, grow thin, and finally tear apart around me.Then the cold floor of my dorm room slams into my back.I gasp so hard my lungs burn. My fingers claw at the floor. Real floor. Cheap linoleum presses against my palms near Bianca's bed. For one heartbeat, I don't believe it. I press my palm against it, just to make sure it stays solid.My vision shifts.For a split second, the wall beside my bed turns into thick blue ice, glowing under a moon that isn't there. Then it's only a plain dorm wall again. "I swear to God, if that Angel girl isn't back b

  • The Nun's Lustful Desire    CHAPTER 9 — Three Days Without Angel

    CHRISTIAN'S POVThe world has never ignored my voice before.Ministers answer my calls. Bishops rise when I walk in. Governors shake my hand. But for three days, no one can tell me where my daughter is.Angel doesn't even last two days at Kingsbridge International University. Now I stand in a hotel room that smells of bleach and cold coffee, staring at a silent phone that never rings.Seventy-two hours since the school called to say Angel is missing. I haven't slept. Food turns to ash in my mouth. I've exhausted every favor, every contact, every man who ever owed me a debt. Still nothing."Christian," Rose's voice cuts through the room, tight and thin. "Did you hear what the inspector said? They found nothing on the cameras. Nothing.""I heard him." I didn't look up from the phone. "Cameras break. Systems fail. This is Bucharest, not Ashbrook. Things don't work here the way they do back home.""You're doing it again." She crosses her arms. Her wedding ring catches the lamp light, thro

My claws are still an inch from her throat. My arm is shaking, not from weakness, but from two hundred years of obedience breaking apart at once. "You don't give me orders. I give you orders."Gravewind claws back, and this time it isn't a growl — it's pain, real pain, like something inside my ribs is being pulled apart with bare hands. I stagger back from her sleeping body, gripping my own skull, and for one humiliating second the Alpha Prince of Winter kneels in the snow like a dying man. This has never happened. Not once in two centuries has my own wolf turned against me.I choose something worse than ending her life. I choose to fear my own mind instead—and make her pay for it.Every step hurts as I force myself up. A growl slips from my lips with every breath. Ignoring the pain,

  • The Nun's Lustful Desire    CHAPTER 7 — The Girl Who Stole My Death

    THEODORE'S POVIt is so peaceful that I never want it to end.Cool sea air brushes my face, carrying the scent of salt and mist. The old wooden boat rocks gently on the clear water, its dark sides glowing under the golden light.I run toward it before it leaves without me, because for the first time in two hundred years, nothing hurts.The river glows silver under a sky with no moon and no stars, only light that comes from nowhere and everywhere at once. Soft blue flowers cover the riverbank. They do not wither when I walk past them. They do not turn black beneath my feet. Nothing freezes here. Nothing screams. The silence is warm.Safe.For the first time in longer than I can remember, I laugh. A real laugh.The sound startles me. It feels strange coming from my own mouth, as if I have never laughed before. Maybe I never truly did.The little boat waits quietly at the edge of the river. Without thinking, I reach for it. Finally… No one will ever fear me again. No one will ever hate m

  • The Nun's Lustful Desire    CHAPTER 6 — Every Resurrection Takes a Life

    ANGEL'S POV"Who gave you permission to take that away from me?"His grip burns around my wrist like a hot mark. For one heartbeat, my ribs refuse to move. I only stare into his glowing red eyes.As I stare, I notice his arm is shaking. His fingers are tight, but not as strong as they should be. He's still weak. Even now, his eyelids barely stay open.I wrench my wrist free and stumble backward into the snow. The white ground gleaming beneath the moonlight."I'm sorry!" I gasp, scrambling upright. "I'm so sorry. I didn't mean to."Before he can answer, I run.Branches tear at my sleeves as I push through the trees, my bare feet screaming against ice and stone, my lungs burning colder with every breath. Looking back feels impossible. If I look back I'll see those crimson eyes again, and I already know I won't be able to make my legs move if I do.Who is he?The question chases me through the dark faster than my own feet can carry me.Who did I bring back? And how? I've never done anyth
