RUNEWhen I woke up, I felt content. My body ached, and between my legs felt raw and sore. I felt like I had been through war and come out victorious. Every mark on my body sung like a trophy. I shifted slightly, and the ache between my legs made me smile. He ruined me perfectly, just how I’d asked him to.I sat up, the covers slipping off my naked body. I was clean, fresh. Even the sheets underneath me felt clean too. I guess Xavier must have taken care of everything when I passed out. Turning around, I spotted him lying beside me. God, my heart can’t take this!He looked peaceful, his chest rising and falling steadily, the mark–my mark on his neck still fresh and bold. I touched mine too, feeling it throb under my hand like a living thing. I actually did it. I marked my mate, I finally did it! And he marked me too. So now I can’t compel him anymore!“Why ever would we want to compel our mate?” My lycan purred, her voice dreamy and love sick. Ha. That pretentious bitch. Just yes

RUNEI was still straddling his hips, soft moans spilling out of my mouth, when he flipped us over with one smooth motion. I landed on my back, laughing breathlessly as he settled between my thighs like he belonged there.“You’re sleepy,” I mumbled, cupping his face and running my thumbs over his cheekbones. He leaned closer to my touch, pressing soft kisses into my palms. “Fuck sleep,” he whispered, his voice still rough. Whether it was from sleep or from how I’d sucked his soul out of his cock, I didn’t know. I’d like to guess the latter. “You’re beautiful, Rune.”His sudden admittance made me blink. Then warmth flooded my entire body. A tingly, giddy kind of warmth. I smiled. “Thanks…you’re beautiful too.” I traced his neck, running my fingers softly over the marks I’d given him. So beautiful. So mine.He took my hand, brought it to his lips and kissed every one of knuckles. His kisses were slow, reverent, and I felt like I was being worshiped. His golden eyes never left mine, s

RUNE“Why the fuck do you sound so happy?”I rolled my eyes, even though Lorenzo wasn’t there to see it. “What? Can’t your sister be happy anymore?”He made a huffing sound. “Whatever. The Eclipse, did you get any information about it?”And just like that, my smile vanished. Ah. The Eclipse. Everything in between. My spirits dampened. Pulling my legs up to my chest, I rested my cheek over my knees. “I asked Elias and no. He said he wasn’t on the council, so he didn’t have any information on it. He did give me the details of it, the sacrifice.”“That stopped a while back. They don’t do sacrifices anymore, my guess is that they use blood. Or hair. Something personal like that.”“Yeah. I tried to find the person, the…sacrifice. But I don’t know where to start.”“Don’t.”“What?”“Rune, it’s best to stay away from the council. Although that’s going to be a bit impossible given who you’re dating.”“Xavier isn’t aware either.”Lorenzo paused and went silent. I thought he’d hung up, but he

RUNEIt’s fine. I’m not here to fix her relationship with Xavier. She doesn’t even look like she wants it fixed. That’s none of my business. Although a tiny voice whispers that eventually the three of us will need to sit down and have a real conversation, that’s not the part of me I want to listen to right now.Not my business.So I took a seat. On the couch far from Marcella. She noticed the distance and scoffed, muttering something about a scared cat under her breath. Then she went back to her drink, whipping out another full of bottle of beer.“Go on,” she said impatiently. “What?”“What happened to you?”She laughed. It was a cold and heartless sound. “Like hell you care.”“I cared.”Cared.Her brows quirked at that word. So many memories came rushing to my mind, all the time we’d spent together. All the happy and sad times we had. All of them now turned to ash. “Good thing it’s in past tense. Please just say what you want and get out.”Suddenly, the confidence is marched in her

RUNE:My heart hammered, thrashing against my chest like it wanted to escape. I couldn’t piece everything together without feeling like I was losing my fucking mind!My blood. Me. I’m the sacrifice. Except I’m not going to be cut up on some altar. No. I’ve already handed this council the one thing they needed to succeed. And I did it with my eyes wide open.I could pause and say that Elias lied to me and decieved me. But did he?He told me from the start, that lycan blood needed consent. And I gave it to him. Only I didn’t know exactly what he was going to use it for. He said it was for research, for drugs. I was stupid. So fucking stupid. “Oh and did you know,” Marcella spun on me after a few seconds of her relentless pacing. “This is just a personal suspicion, but Elias is a lycan.”“You’re lying…”“She’s not.” My lycan purred. “I felt it the first time we met. That man is one of us.”“What?! And you didn’t tell me?!”“I had my reasons.”“What’s going on?” Marcella asked wi
