Nicholai

Kaima hadn’t left too long ago, but I was already missing her.

I told myself it didn’t bother me that she was there with Nathan, but that was a bloody lie. It did. It always did. Every goddamn time she stayed in the same room with him, something inside me turned restless. It felt like breathing itself didn’t feel right when I wasn’t close to her.

I sat back in my chair, staring at the glass in my hand. The whisky burned as it went down my throat, but it didn’t do shit to quiet down the thoughts in my head. The room was too quiet, and I hated it.

I didn’t know I could fall for someone like this, but from the moment I set my eyes on her, I knew she was the one. She was different, special. Kaima was light—everything I wasn’t.

My fingers tapped on the glass. I should have gone to the auction with her, because the longer she stayed away, the harder it became for me to breathe. But there was something off, something… I couldn’t really place my hands on.

Then I paused. There was a s

    NathanIt had been so long since I brewed wine, but here I was doing it with so much joy. The sweet, warm scent of fermenting grapes filled the room. I kept stirring the mixture, watching it. For some odd reason, I just couldn’t stop smiling today, my cheeks actually hurt.I hated that.I shouldn’t be this happy.But still… I was.I caught myself humming… humming, really? Of all things, I was humming. I shook my head. That was when I heard footsteps behind me.Oliver.He stopped beside me, crossing his arms, watching me with that annoying look that said he already knew something.“Well, this is… weird,” he faintly said.I didn’t look at him. “What?”“You.” He pointed at me suspiciously. “You are happy. It’s strange.”I scoffed. “I’m always happy.”Oliver laughed out loud. It was dry and completely sarcastic. “Yes, and I’m a witch with wings. Nathan, you haven’t brewed wine in months, and now here you are. What’s going on?”“Nothing,” I said, trying to keep my voice normal. “I just fel

  • Under Her Spell: Saving The Alpha    Chapter 111: His Apology

    CHAPTER 111 — HIS APOLOGY KaimaThe moment I reached the bottom of the stairs, I froze, completely stunned.My breath was completely stolen away because the entire penthouse looked like it was pulled out of a movie or something.There were roses… everywhere.Red roses spread across the counter, petals scattered on the floor. My eyes fell on the cake on the dining table with I’m sorry written in messy icing.Silver and gold balloons floated near it. One massive, one shaped like a heart had I’M SORRY printed on it in huge letters.The air smelled of candles and fresh flowers, my two favourite things.My heart swelled. I just stood there, not moving or blinking. I was afraid that if I blinked everything would disappear and I would wake up from this dream. I still didn’t believe that it was real.That was when I saw him.Nicholai.Standing in the middle of everything, he looked like he hadn’t slept, not just for hours but for days. His hair was a mess, his shirt wrinkled, his eyes tired

  • Under Her Spell: Saving The Alpha    Chapter 110: Crying Myself Empty

    KaimaI didn't know when I started crying.I only realized it when my vision got so blurred I couldn't see the ceiling anymore, and when I blinked, the tears slid down my cheeks and into the pillow. And within minutes the sheets were wet and cold, becoming uncomfortable, but I didn’t care. My chest hurt, my throat hurt. I was trying my hardest to stop crying but I couldn't hold it in anymore.Nicholai actually left.He actually went to Tara's place.I sobbed, the sound filling the room.“Kaima,” I heard Nyx call, her voice soft in the back of my mind. “Please calm down,” she said, trying to soothe me.But the crying only became worse. I buried my face into the pillow and cried harder.“He left me, Nyx,” I choked out the words. “He actually left.”“She's sick,” Nyx said. “You saw the message. He only went to check on her, that's all. He didn't leave you. It just makes him a good person.”“But…what if Nicholai doesn't love me anymore?” my voice cracked as another sob shook me. “What if

  • Under Her Spell: Saving The Alpha    Chapter 109: My Heart Isn't Hers

    NicholaiShit… shit… shit.The words left my mouth as I rushed down the stairs, out the house and into my car. My heart was still back with Kaima even when I drove to Tara's place.I couldn't get how she looked at me out of my head. I knew I was hurting her so badly and it was breaking me.Ever since I got my memories of what Tara and I shared, I've just been being pulled in two opposite directions and I hated it.Just check up on her quickly, I told myself. Make sure she's okay, then go back and explain everything and fix it.I knew it wasn't going to be as easy as saying it but I had to find a way to fix things.When I got to Tara's, from the door I could hear soft uneven breathing from inside. I pushed the door gently and stepped in.TaraShe was curled on the couch, a heavy blanket covered her and she was still shivering violently. Her skin was pale, her teeth chattering together, traces of sweat on her forehead. Her lips trembled as she tried to speak.“N… Nicholai.”I knelt besi

  • Under Her Spell: Saving The Alpha    Chapter 108: When Space Becomes Distance

    Nicholai It had only been a few days of Kaima asking for space and it felt like something was actually tearing me apart from the inside.Whoever said alcohol was the best way to go when you feel like a complete mess was so wrong because right now it wasn't doing any damn thing for me.I had downed almost every bottle in the house—whiskey, vodka, rum, even the cheap trash I wouldn't touch on a normal day.But swallowing it felt like I was literally drinking water. There was no burn, not even a sting. Absolutely nothing.I knew I couldn't feel anything because Kaima wasn't here... and without her everything feels wrong and meaningless.I didn't just want her, I needed her. Kaima was my drug and without her I could not function properly. My chest was so tight and it felt like all my senses were super heightened more than usual. I could even hear someone getting out of their car from like so many streets away. Every second without her was torment.So I just sat at the kitchen bar, bottle

  • Under Her Spell: Saving The Alpha    Chapter 107 — FRIENDS

    KaimaI didn’t know when the words slipped out. Maybe it was because of how Nathan looked at me, or maybe it was how safe I felt with him. I wasn’t sure, but no matter how I tried to deny it, I always felt safe with Nathan. And the way he spoke so gently, so calmly… sometimes I wondered if he was truly an alpha because he was too… kind.“Nathan, I feel it too whenever you aren’t okay.”He looked surprised, but not that surprised, really.“Yeah?”“So… how am I feeling right now?”I didn’t reply for a moment, trying to concentrate, but I didn’t feel anything from him. It was just my emotions that were all over the place.“I… don’t know,” I said, disappointed.“Hey… it’s fine, okay?” he smiled.“I don’t know when it started. I think… it was when I was still at the packhouse or when I moved. I’m not sure, but when something is wrong, my chest tightens—like something is pulling at me, like I’m supposed to check on you or something.”I quickly stopped myself from continuing further.This wa
