Find the Fallen
A strange surge lifted inside Deragan. Something he barely recognized after so long. Hope.
“Sebastian never hurries.” Deragan concurred. His shout to the gate tower made the bridge begin descending over the moat.
Not fast enough.
“He’s not slowing down.” Lucien grimaced.
The valkyrie’s cry rose again. Louder.
She can feel his return. Deragan sensed.
Lucien eyed the wall separating them warily. “That’s why I lock that thing in when I’m here…”
And because she scares you. Deragan had no time to tease just now.
“Bast wouldn’t appreciate that.” Deragan commented without looking away.
“Yeah…But she terrifies me. I love a tough woman. But not one that can actually kill me…” He murmured. “And likely wants to.” Even Lucien silenced as Bast reached the bridge. Leaping to claw the peak of wooden planks, raking in front feet until piercing the wood. Tossing his body atop it, he t

The Taming The Lovers
Sebastian was surprised to see a bold shadow step from the tree, momentarily catching him off-guard. Only Deragan’s projection. The Alpha’s body remained carefully hidden by the tree. Usually, The Alpha isn’t so impulsive…Only when it comes to her. Bast watched her lean against both edges of the pane in an attempt to see the street through the downpour. Holding his breath, Bast reminded himself she couldn’t see the spirit projection. Only Forever Knights can see spirit so clearly. Bast knew. At length she shook her head and put her forehead against the cool window. Hand on the glass next to her she watched rivulets cascading odd little trails. Leaning back, she gave a weak smile as droplets seemed to move around her hand despite, they were on the other side. It was a painful sight to witness. Poor, miserable souls. Deragan’s outline, head and shoulders blocked light from the Parlor. A
The Taming What of Calisto?
“Think he killed her?” Rhyers breathed, daring to ask the question they both wondered. Rhyers leaned forward, waiting for Bast’s answer. “Not a chance.” Bast said dully. “She’s too valuable to him.” In-case Raese ever returns. Or to use against Chavias…Bast remembered the vision he'd seen in the globe so many years ago. Telling him about Chavias' fall. I could've done more. If I'd known it'd be then... “She’d never give in to him.” “So, he’d rather torture her indefinitely.” Bast said dully. Her and Chavias, no doubt. Bast choked on the distaste running through him at the thought of his old friends. The subject made a lump of emotion in his throat. I need to discuss something else. “How is Mardichi?” Bast said randomly. Throwing Rhyers off-guard. “We talk very little anymore, as you well know.” “No one talks to him much anymore since he found that little mate of his.”
The Taming Merciless
He strode to her. She lined the blade up with his chest and he walked into it until the tip pierced the skin above one of his pectoral muscles. Sliding through flesh and making a thick red drop well. “What are you doing?” She blinked rapidly, stunned. “Giving you, your chance.” He opened his arms wide to expose his torso to her. You won’t do it. You’re not as vicious as you want me to believe. She drew several quick breaths, eyes flicking as she decided what to do. Her face tightened as she steeled herself to attack. And he realized he was wrong. He saw the change in her. In the storm of her eyes. Turning on his heel, he strode from the room. “I hope your full belly assuages your guilt.” She hissed waspishly. “For your kind heart will demand you do.” She shouted epithets. Bast found despite all his bravado; he was angry she’d killed the rabbit. Somehow, I’d secretly hoped she wouldn’
The Taming Look All You Need
Her eyes widened at the threat that he’d seduce her ruthlessly. She thought I’d harm her? His arousal was immediately doused with the familiar feeling of disappointment. “You’re mistaken about me.” He whispered. “I’m not so sure…” “You should be.” But the weight of her words pierced him like a sword. “Ask her about Raese.” He said. Clearing his throat, he rose and strode from the room, trying to hide the pain she’d caused him. “Look what you’ve done now…” Calisto said. “Why so heartless?” “I don’t know him.” “You do. Better than anyone.” “Better than you?” “Better than anyone.” Calisto’s voice turned chastising. “You should ask yourself why you work so hard to keep him at arm’s length.” Elsabet eyed the darkness. “What about Raese?” She asked hesitantly. “If I’d known anything new it’d have been the first thing, I wouldn’t have wasted time on repartee. I’m tired.” Calisto sighed.
The Taming Toying with Fire
It was a few hours later after the sherry took her in its grip, she rose and decided to walk it off. Putting a hand to the back of the chair to steady herself. He put his over it with a worried look. “Are you okay?” I didn’t intend to get you intoxicated. He felt a pang of remorse. She’d had two glasses already and had told him she’d not had anything heavier than wine previously. I should’ve paid a bit more attention. She slid her hand out from under his. Dodging his study. She moved to wander the aisles of the library under his watchful eye. Swaying slightly, she stumbled now and again. Making him jerk in his chair. “Can I help you?” “No.” She responded. But it lacked her usual venom. He drew a steadying breath and let her move about. His concern mounting. She stopped and began looking through the pages of a book. “Will you give me a hint about the book I search for?” “One about me.” Her eyes
The Taming Teasing a Lion
Instead, she moaned softly, and her hands pressed to his chest, wrapping around his waist to reach his back. He felt his body hardening in response. Abruptly she jerked her face to the side and pushed him back, sidestepping to escape his reach. “I-I can’t-” He stood where he was. A black silhouette with gold eyes glowing like floating orbs in the dark. She was staring at him as if he’d just lit on fire. Which I think I have. I will have another taste of that. She backed away until her back slammed into one of the cases, jostling the books. And making her give a panicked screech. “I don’t know why-I…” Fumbling to slap books back up over her shoulder she continued backing from him. Easing around the shelf. Realizing he’d lost her for the night and seeing that pursuing her would terrify her. She’s afraid of surrendering. He knew he was close to sending her walls crumbling. I can be patient awh
The Taming To Feel You
Kneeling before her, he placed his other hand on her knee to massage it over her skirt. Vaguely noticing she didn’t jump or recoil from his touch this time. “Is this a game? Do you toy with me?” He took another drink and eyed her warily over the rim. “Am I playing a fool in your hands?” It’s been years of casual touches, getting close, then drawing back. I’m more confused than ever. “Would I find you so pliable?” She arched a brow. “You would.” He looked at her steadily. Mesmerizing turquoise eyes intent on her face. “I’m clay in your hands...” “Clay hardens.” Me too. Every time I look at you. Bast nearly spit his wine at the immediate thought entering his mind. She gave him a quizzical look. “My usual crude tongue would run far from my control should I respond to that, My Lady.” “You know well, I’m no Lady.” I disagree. “Are you trying to provoke me?” He gave her a que
The Taming As She Wishes It
He rose up and she greedily unlaced his breeches and withdrew his hardened length from his pants. Groaning he kicked from his pants and replaced his finger with his root. Sinking into her heat and feeling her body stretching to accommodate him. A sweet body unused to the intrusion of man. He was instantly flooded with possessiveness. Wanting to make her his, and mark her so no other man or beast could put a hand on her without grave consequences. “Get this dress off me.” His gaze fell to the many laces tying down the front and the long layers of skirts. “Tear it off. Like you did your shirt.” She said urgently. His brows shot up. “Now, Sebastian.” He complied before surging roughly into her. Desperate with the need to drive into her. Mount her like the beast he was. But even as he filled her, he yearned for more. Knowing he’d never get enough of her. His tawny hair fell in gold waves down his back as he
