Kahlan POVI pulled back, as Eric kissed me the more, and desire clawed into me. "Are we seriously doing it on this table?"Eric smiled, the action revealing his nicely set of teeth. "I will do it anywhere with you."I laughed. " I don't want Naomi around you," I barely finish it when Eric's lips swallowed mine in another deep kiss."She won't," he said softly between the space of kissing me. "I can't wait to have you all to myself," his husky voice made my core tight.He's really affecting me so much.Smiling, I met his lips again for another kiss while my hands unbuttoned him, yet they were shaking and I had difficulty in getting a button off.He laughed at my action. "Cute," he whispered in my ear, nibbled on it, and pulled back to pull away the shirt.I stared at his chest again and the breath almost left me. "You like what you see?" He teased.I forgot to reply but instead nodded, my cheeks blushing hard.He gave me hickeys as his fingers went around the buttons. He was doing fi

Kahlan's pov A sudden knock jerked me out of my thoughts. I rushed out of the bathroom and took one of Eric's shirts. After Eric left, I decided to whirl away time by staying in the shower. I slept off eventually until it was morning. I didn't know if the designers came or not but well, I knew they would soon be here because they must take my measurements before Eric returns. I couldn't stop thinking about the sex I had with Eric. It was emotions filled and very hot. I imagine it over and over again. The way my body wants Eric again is something I didn't expect but I love it. After breakfast that morning, I decided to shower again because I was thinking of him and wishing he could return to me quickly. "Yes, come in," I invited as I buttoned up. The door opened and three maids walked inside. I recognize the last one as the lady that spoke to me in the hall. "We are here to take your measurements and provide you with the best quality of clothes," one of them expressed. I nodded

Kahlan POVA sigh escaped my mouth unknowingly. Well, I was initially anticipating it. I knew Mathias was going to be adamant about Eric being the culprit. I wasn't surprised anyways because I was like that too. I guess I have a long way to go. I will just have to keep pushing it until he believes me."See, she's not shocked. She knew who did it! But she's doing nothing about it!" Sonia stated, half screaming. The girl is annoying me and I might have decided to do something if not because I have to convince Mathias before Eric gets back. I would have to introduce the two anyways. So, they must stay on good terms."You better shut your mouth there, Sonia, or I shut it for you," I warned sternly before I looked back at Mathias. "I know, Mathias and that was in fact my belief. I have always thought Eric killed them but he didn't. I got to find the truth and in fact, he doesn't even know who did. He's currently looking for the culprit," I explained, while silently praying he accepts it.

Kahlan POVI had a feeling of dejavu immediately. It was as if I was seeing a replica of myself and Sonia. "What are you talking about?" I asked, the words made me tremble, or was I trembling before uttering the words? I'm just so confused.He sighed. "I will tell you all you need to know if you will hear me out. If you aren't interested, then I will leave," he expressed.I regarded him for a moment. " How did you enter? Did you grow wings or what?" I inquired.He smiled. " You see, Eric and I could be from the same father but we are way different, very different. While Eric is a lycan, I'm only a shapeshifter," he revealed.My heart took on a sudden beat, as a reminder. Damn! Sonia is also a shapeshifter and she's the worst. I sincerely don't know if I should be talking to Hardin or not.Ok, I'm so angry at everyone from Eric's side because Hardin is going to be telling me about Eric. Somehow, I'm interested."That's why you hate him?" The word went out of my mind before I could thi

Eric povSomehow, it just felt somehow. I mean even looking at Kahlan and I could see that something was wrong somewhere.But with the emergence of the wine, I think that was what she was trying to keep from me.My smile widened as I regarded the bottle of wine. Kahlan was planning behind me. She is slowly getting free with me which is what I was desperately wishing for.Now that I'm back, I will try to look for Hardin. He's my brother and so I don't want to fight him but if he's so bent on ruining my relationship with Kahlan, then we might as well just fight till the moon goddess separates us.I'm not going to let him ruin my chances with Kahlan as he did with Naomi. Trouble just follows wherever he goes.I watched Kahlan safely place the bottle of wine on the table, a smile on her face before she moved even closer to me.“I want you too,” her soft voice caresses my ears.I've seriously missed her. I caught her in my arms and kissed her collarbone. She giggled at this and it melted m
