Her heart stopped when she saw him. The world she had grown up admiring suddenly lost its appeal when her eyes fell on the man who was her mate. The first thing about him that arrested her attention was his amber eyes. They were not looking at her and even then she reckoned the intensity they held. There was no mistaking the ferocity they carried. She was already lost. Butterflies burst in her stomach as she took in his well-chiseled face. He was handsome with his Raven hair that was swept back into a bun. Thick dark eyebrows, adding to his sex appeal. Pointed nose, making him look even more attractive. And plumpy pink lips that must taste like cherry. The beard, hiding his edge-cutting jawline, gave a feral touch to his rugged look. He is handsome in every sense of the word. But that was not it. He also carried an air of danger around him. The ambe

"Pardon, my lady," Elijah questioned, positive he must have misheard her. Not your lady, I am your woman, Sabrina was tempted to say"You are my mate," Sabrina nervously fisted her nightdress and repeated with a little more confidence this time. Elijah was staring at her with a straight face. He scanned her expression for any hint of amusement but there was none. She has to be a really good actress for he knew she was just messing around with her. On the other hand, Sabrina was turning into a nerve-wreck by his silence.  Her brows knitted down when he started chuckling. That deep delicious chuckle.  "You got me for a second, my lady. Your theatr

Sabrina had her head throbbing painfully when she woke up from her brief slumber. She sat up and massaged her temple to alleviate the pain but to no avail. And then the memories of last night rushed back, prompting fresh tears to invade her eyes. Their moans and grunts had felt like a spear, stabbing and twisting her gut mercilessly. How could he be so cruel? She moped for ailw on her bad luck than quietly wiped her tears and slid off the makeshift bed. She straightened her gown and corrected her appearance before walking out of her chamber. The maids bowed down to her when she came out. Her eyes of their own accord started searching for him and they found him a few moments later. He was talking to one of his commanders. A wave of anger and pain burst inside her as she couldn't help but remember the last night. Her gaze trailed down his face. Another heart break was awaiting her when she found a hickey right above his collarbone. Her heart had stopped beati

Before she could scream for help, a large hand clamped itself firmly over her mouth. "Ssshhhh," he breathed heavily in her ear while pressing his large chest into her back. Sabrina froze in realization. It was him. His firm grip around her bare belly tightened resolutely. She felt the gentle heat of his body searing through her back, causing her heartbeat to sore like a bird. "I didn't like how you were dancing with that imbecile," he loosened his hand over her mouth only to play with her hued lips. His thumb started caressing the soft flesh. "I was this close to snap his neck and then yours," he pinched her lower lip with his thumb and index finger and stretched it harshly. She groaned in pain. The stench of alcohol coming from his mouth alluded that he was drunk. "Is that what my little princess wants?" he put his chin on her shoulder and continued to roll her lip, ignoring her groans of pain. "Nnnno please..," she p

The river was raging fiercely. Anyone could get easily drowned in the powerful current of the river and never be found. His face blanched when the ralisation dawned upon him. Without thinking twice, he jumped off the cliff and into the water. The icy water pricked at his skin as he felt himself going deeper into the water. He pushed himself up the moment his feet touched the floor bed of the river to swim to the surface. He emerged from the water and looked around. She was nowhere to be found. His heart sank to the pit of his stomach. All he could see was furious waves of water. He swam through the water in search of her. "Sabrina," he hollered her name while fighting the fierce waves."Sabrina," no answer came. The anxiety was clear in his eyes. He had started to lose hope when his eyes caught on a piece of green cloth flowing in the opposite direction. He turned towards it and started swimming after that while calling her name from the top of his lungs. Her blond locks were float
