ARIA

I bit the inside of my cheek to stop myself from laughing.

Isolde turned her attention back to Xavier, and I thought she would leave the subject alone, but apparently she wasn't finished proving her point.

“You still take your tea without sugar, don't you?” she asked Xavier with a knowing smile.

I paused. There it was again, another little piece of information from the Xavier she had known before me. I didn't even realize I had started staring at him until Maya spoke.

  • Too Curvy To Be Luna, Too Strong To Break    The Price of Jealousy

    XavierAlec's final remark had followed me long after he walked away. I had dismissed his accusation to his face, but the suggestion that Aria was hiding something from me had found an uncomfortable place in my thoughts. I knew I shouldn't give him the satisfaction of questioning her because of a few carefully chosen words, yet I couldn't stop wondering what he believed I didn't know about the woman I was trying so desperately to understand.I was still standing near the reception hall when I noticed Lucian returning from the garden with Aria. He was saying something that made her laugh, and she tilted her head toward him with an ease I hadn't seen from her in my presence for some time. Lucian smiled at her, clearly pleased with himself, while my fingers tightened around the glass I was holding.I knew my cousin. He had always enjoyed irritating me, especially when he discovered something capable of provoking a reaction. But watching Aria laugh with him br

  • Too Curvy To Be Luna, Too Strong To Break    His Past Has Entered the Room

    AriaAlec remained standing with his glass raised, his attention fixed on me as the conversations around the table gradually faded. I had expected him to bring up our marriage eventually, but I hadn't expected him to use the first evening of his visit to make it the centre of attention. Xavier sat beside me, his expression controlled, while the elders waited to hear what Alec considered so important that he had interrupted the diplomatic reception.“After Aria left Crestview, several personal and financial matters were never properly resolved,” Alec began. “There were responsibilities connected to our marriage that she simply walked away from, and I believe it is time we addressed them.”I placed my glass on the table, keeping my expression composed. The nerve of the man was almost impressive. He had spent years making decisions without considering me, yet now he wanted everyone in the room to believe I had abandoned my responsibilities.“I wasn't

  • Too Curvy To Be Luna, Too Strong To Break    The Return of Alec and Selene

    Aria I stood before the full-length mirror while Maya adjusted the final fold of my dress, her eyes occasionally meeting mine through the reflection. The deep emerald gown hugged my waist before falling smoothly to the floor, with delicate gold embroidery around the neckline and sleeves. It was elegant without being excessive, and the soft fabric allowed me to move comfortably. I had chosen it because I liked how I looked in it, not because I needed anyone in Blackwood's hall to approve of my appearance. “Beautiful,” Maya said, stepping back to admire her work. “The Luna of Blackwood is going to make quite an impression today.” I smiled faintly, but my fingers remained busy adjusting the bracelet around my wrist. “I hope the impression is that I know how to welcome guests without throwing anyone through the nearest window.” Maya laughed, although her expression softened when she noticed my hands. “You're nervous.”

  • Too Curvy To Be Luna, Too Strong To Break    An Unwelcome Invitation

    The messenger’s words were still hanging in the air when the courtyard seemed to shrink around us.Alec, Crestview’s Alpha and Aria’s former husband. He was the same man I had handed my mate to, thinking he would take good care of her. If only I had known he would stand in front of an entire gathering and choose another woman while she watched. But then, I don't even have the right to keep blaming him. What I did to Aria was worse than what her chosen mate did to her.With a hidden smirk, I sent a message to Rohan." Gather every information about Alec's visit. I just don't trust him."Rohan's acknowledgment came almost immediately." On it, Alpha."I slowly turned to glance at my mate, guilt eating me up. Aria stood beside me, the green scarf still bright against her dress, her expression carefully neutral. I noticed the slight tension in her shoulders and the way her fingers tightened around the fabric before she rele

  • Too Curvy To Be Luna, Too Strong To Break    A Date With the Wrong Man

    Xavier POV I told myself it did not matter.Lucian’s invitation was harmless. A walk through town. Nothing more. Aria was free to spend time with whoever she chose, and my cousin had always been skilled at making people laugh. That was all this was.Friendship. History, and nothing that required my interference.I repeated the argument while I trained with the morning patrol, while I reviewed the border reports, and while I stood in my office pretending to read the same page for the third time. None of it worked. Every few minutes my mind supplied a new, reasonable-sounding reason to cancel the outing. A sudden training exercise. An urgent meeting. A convenient report of unrest near the market. Each idea was more transparent than the last, and I discarded them all with growing irritation.By midmorning I learned she had accepted.Maya delivered the news without ceremony, setting a fresh stack of ledgers on my desk. “Th

  • Too Curvy To Be Luna, Too Strong To Break    The Woman He Once Betrayed

    At last, Xavier had no choice but to give up after Lucian nearly ruined his appetite for breakfast. If Lucian had one consistent character flaw, it was his ability to irritate the hell out of Xavier.But then, it worked to my advantage. I could finally breathe a different kind of air in Blackwood.Less than ten minutes later, I found myself staring at the large, noisy marketplace. The place felt lighter without Xavier’s presence pressing at the edges of every moment.Lucian guided me from stall to stall with the same easy confidence he had always possessed, pointing out vendors who still remembered him from years ago and inventing outrageous stories about half of them. He did not watch my face for signs of discomfort.He did not soften his voice or choose safer topics when my laugh grew loud enough to turn a few heads.He simply talked, and I answered, and for the first time in weeks I forgot to notice the sound of my own amusement. I laughed without scanning the nearest faces for hid
