Artemisa “What the hell is that smell?” I watch Hendrick contort his face in rage as Lisa clasps the edge of the tray, making her knuckles go white. “It’s… It’s a sweet tea, just like Missy likes it,” she stutters, trying to make excuses. “But I… I don’t know what is in it. Alberta prepared it. I
ArtemisiaI gasp as it hits me like Lisa took out a knife to stab me right into my stomach. Clasping my clothes, I fight to keep standing upright, forcing my brain to stop making my surroundings spin.“Bella donna?” Ramona asks, scrunching up her nose. “Are you tripping? This isn’t the moment to fli
He lifts his hand, his desperation showing in his eyes as he justifies himself. “I didn’t know that she was poisoning you?! I just felt sorry for her because she kept crying about being left alone to me repeatedly! I felt pity for her, damn, never would I have wanted her close to you if I knew that.
Artemisia Tonight I slept the worst possible way. In my dreams, I kept being haunted by Logan, transforming into different monsters wanting to slash my throat, and my family dragging me back to their pack. Several times, I jerked out of my dreams in the middle of the night and needed a frustratin
“I’m pregnant,” I shrug, smiling happily as their eyes widen. “No way?!” Cayden has barely uttered his surprise as he skyrockets out of his seat, charging towards me. Wrapping his arms around my legs, he lifts me up, and I squeal as I hold myself onto the collar of his shirt. “You aren’t kidding?!
Hendrick I cringe as I feel the sharp tip of the metal instrument pierce into my skin. “You were always my favourite.” The memory of his gravelly voice rumbles through my head, making me take a deep breath. I open my eyes, finding Artemisia leaning against my shoulder as she has fallen asleep dur
Hendrick I sense Cayden wanting to move, and I take a step forward to lay a hand on his shoulder. “Think of Missy,” I whisper before grinning at the bitch. “Madam Patricia, how lovely to see you again.” Her smile falls only for a split second before she regains it again, “It’s still Rachel, Hendr
I breathe out exhaustedly, shaking my head. “I don’t know. But this does not look good.” Rachel leads us into the east wing, showing us the rooms where we are residing, and after reciting the basic pieces of information about the lunch times and general palace rules, she shocks us with the informat
Kai“No wonder you couldn’t wait to take my place as an Alpha,” Ace snarls at me, and I get into his face, keeping him from pushing me backwards. “Poor little Kai, always behind in everything, and still fighting so hard to get our father’s attention at all costs.”Rage streams through my veins, pump
Emma “This can’t possibly be it.” Kai lets the bag he is carrying slump to the ground as we stare at the city lying in ruins before us, spellbound.“This isn’t it, is it?” he asks again, even if he knows that we could never give him a positively confident answer. He sighs while Ace takes out the
Emma “Be wary with everyone you encounter.” Corvina scurries around us as we load her red Beetle, and Kai groans as he stands in her way. He stops her from panicking by putting his hands on her arms and leaning in. “Aintín, we are big and strong. You don’t have to worry about us.” “And we won’t
Emma I don’t even remember how I got back into my bed. Kai got rid of his ripped shirt and helped me clean myself up. Maybe it was just a dream, but we had found a small pond where we could dip in and freshen up. By the time we were floating in the water, I would have guessed that they would alre
Emma It looks like Kai found what he was looking for, because he walks through a set of bushes. Kneeling, he puts me down gently, Ace following with a lost expression. “Go ahead,” Kai entices him, putting my head on his knees. “Spread your legs for him, babe.” My blush must be spreading to my br
Oh, fuck, yes! I start moaning loudly on purpose, wanting to incite him as Kai continues to fuck me gently, lifting me up and down on his cock. Ace’s fingers graze my hips carefully, causing hot sparks to dance on them. “Ah,” I jerk up, and he retreats his hands immediately. “No, wait,” I plead,
Emma I bite my bottom lip, my gaze jumping from him to the fire shining through the trees and back to him. “We can’t…” His grin grows, and he puts his hands onto my hips, letting them glide onto my back and down to my ass. I lose myself in his eyes as he locks his gaze with mine, my hands driving
Emma “This is ridiculous,” Kai mutters against his glass before taking a large gulp out of it. I sigh, tugging at my dress as I reposition myself. “But you wanted to attend the bonfire. Don’t you like it?” The crackling noises of the large fire accompany the witches' chants and laughter as they
Emma “See?” Corvina giggles as she turns around to me, Kai still looking at her as if he wanted to rip her head off. She looks back at Kai. “Are you okay?” He nods, but I get up to stand next to Corvina as something in his expression doesn’t convince me. And in fact, as soon as I have reached he
