Amara’s pov I was back in my room after getting myself together in the kitchen. I couldn't go to sleep even if I tried knowing that Orian was somewhere out there thinking he was ugly and him being saddened by whatever Hector meant by lemons.I took a quick shower, pulled on a nightgown, and got out of my room to find him. The lights in the hallways were dimmed with the moonlight shining through the windows guiding me.I didn't know where to look for him and so I stood at the beginning of the stairs that led to his side of the castle.Don't go there, My attempt to talk myself out of it failed and I placed one foot on the step. I was about to ascend with the other when grunts and heavy breathing sounded. My ears picked up the sound and I followed, it me away from the stairs that led to his side and down the stairs that led to the ground floor.I followed the noises, picking up Orian's scent as I did and soon I found myself before a door. His scent smelled stronger and his

Amara's povYou saw me, I am pathetic.His words. Words I had thought he offered only in the moment of pain only to see that he truly meant them which is why I was here, at the table, alone for the third day since after the incident.I could hear Aileen busy in the kitchen, puppy Orian running around with her there as she quietly scolded her but the only voice I craved at the moment was his.I wanted to hear him speak, for him to tell me that he was okay and I had nothing to worry about. I wanted him to say that he would be down soon and I should wait so we could have breakfast together but none of these happened.I couldn't feel or sense him. I couldn't reach him through the mate bond for he had blocked me out and I couldn't even tell if he was still breathing.I looked down at the dish of creamy pasta, my appetite waning as my husband wasn't down there to eat with me. I wanted to push the plate aside, go upstairs, and lay in bed but I couldn't do that. Aileen had spent time making

Orian's pov I had desperately craved a spark of life within me after these past tumultuous days and tumbling down the stairs with Amara, hearing her screeches and laughter as she tried to wrestle my diary from me did just that and unexpectedly, it began to heal a part of me.I gazed down at her, my heart swelling and chest heaving as I felt light spread within me, the sparks I felt from coming in contact with her skin and the playful flicker in her eyes made me want to tumble down the next flight of stairs just to see her like this again, to be flooded with the light she gave me anew.Her hair was already tousled, the untamed blonde curls scattering all over her face and I watched her uneven breathing, the movement of her chest, and her luscious lips parted as she tried to gain her breath."Why do I have a feeling you enjoyed that?" A smile appeared on her lips as she peered up at me with those gorgeous green eyes and she was right.I enjoyed it, even if it was th

Amara's pov I tilted my head, gazing up at the sky on hearing his question which sent exquisite tingles gushing through my nerves despite not knowing what it fully meant. The stars above were magnificent but not as admirable as the wonderful creature I had for a husband currently lurking between my legs, with fingers trailing teasingly against my skin and head dipping slowly building my anticipation for what was to come.What does he mean by the ones I am about to make you see? I questioned myself as his head completely hovered above my cunt and his gaze lowered staring at it intensely.I curled my toes, a sharp intake of breath as his hot breath fanned my damp core and he pressed a kiss to the top of my cunt right where my pubic hair grew, "I think I prefer the ones above, in the sky, they are quite magnificent, grump, do you agree?" My words came out breathless for he moved his face right to my exposed cunt, running his nose between the slit, his growing must

Amara’s pov"All done." I wiped Orian's face with the hem of my gown blushing at the fact that I had caused the mess and I couldn't just let him stay with my release all over his face as he insisted. He wanted to know how everyone else would know he belonged to me if he wasn't carrying my essence, like anyone would see him to tonight, "Can I have my panties?""Nope." He grinned sliding his hands over my thighs and going up to palm my butt cheeks, "I much rather prefer you bare."I slapped his hands away knowing where this would lead and quickly got to my feet wanting to escape him but I fell due to my legs still weak with pleasure and he chuckled again, grabbing me from the ground and hoisting me in his arms, "Weakling." He teased."Big Monster." I stuck my tongue back at him."Want to know what other big monster I have? I promise you, you would love this one.""Describe it." I raised my brows in confusion wondering what he was talking about now."It's huge and it gets you pregnant."
