Amelia continued to stare at Albert as he seemed to come out of whatever daze he had been in from her prying on his memories. "What the fuck did you just do?" he growled, attempting to lash out. "Who saved who?" "You," Amelia responded, still trying to make sense of what she saw. "When we were kids, but why don’t either of us remember?" Frowning, Amelia tried her hardest to recall the memory she saw, but even she couldn’t find that she had it. "You shouldn’t waste your breath on him," Victoria huffed, deciding to break the silence that was beginning to fall around them. "It’s clear that he didn’t care enough to remember it, so you shouldn’t care too much either." Even though Amelia knew that she was probably right, she couldn’t help the warring emotions she was beginning to feel. She and this hunter had a history, and they were clearly close enough for him to risk his life, but why were they like this now? ‘Those emotions are going to ruin you,’ her succubus side warned. ‘You nee

“Are you sure?”Jimin’s words leave his lips slowly as he continues Amelia’s request. Was she sure? Of course, she was sure of this.She had the entire kingdom of Vi after her, and if she didn’t learn to fight and hone in on her succubus abilities, she would be nothing more than a sitting duck.“I don’t want others to continue to get hurt because of me,” she said slowly. “I want to be able to not only protect myself but also those I care about.”Right. This was what she wanted. She couldn’t continue to be that weak girl who grew up in the convent. That girl was gone, and she would never return.“We can easily handle things,” Jimin pointed out, not quite budging. “You really don’t…”“I do,” Amelia countered, cutting him off before he could continue. “This isn’t only for those around me; this is for me. I’ve been weak my entire life and accepted things as they were because I was led to believe that it was the way of our goddess, but how can I possibly continue to trust in the plan of an

The room around Clarence swayed as he brought his fourth, or maybe fifth, bottle to his lips. Downing its contents, he throws it against the ground and then slumps onto his bed."Fuck!" he growled, throwing his arm over his eyes as if it would stop the fucking spins. “What the hell?"So far, no one had managed to find a single trace of Amelia, and despite knowing he shouldn’t give two shits if she was dead or alive, Clarence couldn’t stop the torrent of emotions in his body.‘Mate,’ Griffin whimpered, causing Clarence’s frustration to grow more. ‘Find her.’‘She isn’t our fucking mate!’That’s right. She wasn’t Clarence’s fucking mate. She was a damn succubus that tricked him with her powers, and that was why he couldn’t stop the attraction he felt toward her.‘But her abilities were blocked,’ Griffin counters, showing Clarence a picture of the ring that Amelia always wore. ‘She was sincere.’Sincere. There was nothing sincere about a fucking succubus. They were evil, and they pretend

When Amelia arrives back at the Nomads domain, there is a lot of fussing going on, and all of it is coming from the cabin that Albert was being kept in. Gasping, she rushes forward and barges into the cabin to find that Victoria is hovering over the hunter with a knife at his throat.“Where is she?” She hisses, pressing the blade against his skin enough to draw blood. “Tell me where you’ve taken Amelia!”“I told you I haven’t done anything!” Albert growls before his eyes snap to Amelia. “She’s right fucking there!”As he speaks, Victoria’s eyes slowly pull away from the hunter’s face and come to rest on Amelia’s. However, they don’t stay there long before they’re traveling to her neck, and a look of fury crosses her face.“You went to see that wolf bastard?” She roars, pressing her knife harder against Albert’s throat so that a grunt of pain escapes him. “What the fuck were you thinking?”“First,” Amelia says, taking a tentative step forward. “Move your weapon.”“Why?” Victoria asks,
