While the guard stood there, motionless, I weighed my options. I couldn't bypass the warriors out front without my chains. And I couldn't get to the control room without running into anyone, which would mean, even though I managed to escape freely, I would still risk someone raising an alarm on seeing me without my bonds.And there was the fact I didn't want to escape just yet. I had unfinished business.I studied the guard's stoic face. "Open up," I said. He came forward and opened the cell, going over to the worn table across the room to grab my smaller bonds.After getting them, he stood before me. I outstretched my arms pointedly. Bending, he exchanged my bonds, pulling me up. I gave him directions to the control room and he began to take me there. Once we got to the main chamber, I grew nervous, passing under the rapt gazes of the lycans there.Someone slapped my guard's shoulder, saying, "Taking her to the king's again?"Silence.Still under my spell, he said nothing. My heartb

LAN_"Are you out of your mind?!"Leisurely unbuttoning my shirt, I didn't turn around from the magnificent view beyond the balconies. "No, Liam, but I'm thinking you are for trying to burst my eardrums."The sound of the door slamming shut echoed. His voice drew nearer. He hissed out, "What do you think you're doing?"Turning, I held his yellow gaze coldly, raising a brow. "You question my motives?"His beast instantly retreated from his eyes and he lowered himself into a nearby chair, taking off his lenses. He scrubbed a palm over his face roughly. "So I'm guessing she's managed to beguile you with her magic. Wonderful."My eyes flashed and I drew level with him, seating. "Never."He splayed his arms wide. "So, care to explain why you had her released? She's dangerous for goddess sakes, Lan.""Which is why she'll be wearing a magic restraint," I said plainly.His blond brows shot up his forehead. "How are you so calm about this?? Lan, it doesn't matter whether or not she'll be wear

The shock in the blonde's gaze got replaced by fear and she started to head back out, but was quickly pushed in by another, much shorter girl. The brunette closed the door behind her and shot me a stink eye. I drew back, my brows shooting up.The first girl spoke in hushed tones, sounding panicked, "Syb, why didn't you tell me the witch was here already..."The second girl didn't mute down her words, but spoke loudly, obviously for my hearing, "Would it matter? The bat is leashed. She won't be able to harm us."A hairbrush had never looked so much like a weapon to me.I stood, and both their gazes snapped towards me, trailing my movements as I went over to my narrow bed, sitting. A stiffness overcame the atmosphere. Some part of me felt like turning and yelling, 'boo!' If anything to see the frightened looks on their faces.But I just laid on my side and waited for sleep to come, a part of me dreading tomorrow.The voices continued, "Syb, you know you can sleep over at my new room, ri

That afternoon, I went into my room and drew short when I saw what was on the table.Food.Just as I rushed over to it the door opened and four omegas poured in, two I recognized to be Syb and her tall friend, Penny."I know right??" one of them was saying. "I'd literally die."Sitting behind my small desk, I picked up the hamburger and devoured it in seconds, starting on the next one."Eurgh, careful," someone called out in disgust. "You're not in an eating competition."My ears burned as they erupted into laughs. Soon, they went on to another conversation. I didn't key in to it until they mentioned an event of sorts. Figuring this would give me an idea of what the rush in the morning was about, I listened."...yeah, like I said, I don't care. Every alpha around the globe will be coming here, what part of that did you not understand, Lu?""Um, the part where you said every alpha around the world will be coming here. Look, the only time they ever come is for the annual festival in Nov

He rose above me and came to join me on the cold slab, his huge dick bobbing in the space between us. He paused for a moment, his green eyes roving over my face, taking in every single detail as if committing it to memory. My flushed cheeks, wild hair, and dazed grey eyes...As if unable to stop himself, his thumb found my cheeks and slowly he caressed it, leaning down on his elbow. He watched his finger raptly as touched me, sliding his thumb down my neck and further down to my chest.I didn't think it possible, but my body came alive again, and I watched him on a caught breath, looking on as he pulled down the hand of my dress, sliding it down my arm.Once he bared my breasts, his eyes turned possessive and he covered one with a rough palm. "Beautiful," he growled quietly, rolling a nipple between his fingers and intently watching it bid to a hard point. "Beautiful..."He covered the second one with his other hand and brought them together, rubbing his face between them while growli
