It Was a Dream

MaddieAfter washing the crying stains out of my pillowcase, I hang it up on the shower curtain rod and step into the living room area of my suite. Ellie is still not back from wherever she went. I’d love to have her to talk to right now, but she probably had to go help some of the other staff members or something. I can’t take up all of her time, after all. There’s a lot to be done in a place as big as this castle.I take a quick bath, changing into a simple dress from my wardrobe suitable for sitting around in my room. I don’t need anything fancy for that. I pick up a book I’d been reading from the side table, but all I can do is just stare at the same paragraph. I try to read it carefully, line by line, but none of it really sticks in my mind. I end up going back, reading the first sentence again, but it’s useless. All I can do is think of all those awful words April said. I try to put it out of my mind, going back to the top of the paragraph again.This goes on for a while befor

Pride and Panic

AprilGiddy.It’s a stupid word, unbecoming of a lady of such high stature as me... the future Luna Queen. Honestly, so is following orders and doing assignments for the king. Normally, I wouldn’t lower myself to do his bidding like a common servant, especially if it involved lugging around such an ugly bag that absolutely does not go with my gown.But this is so much fun! And I’m positively giddy over it!The bag is filled to the gills with money! Actually, I don’t know exactly what gills are or why they might be full, other than that they have something to do with fish. So, that’s a stupid expression to go along with the stupid word: giddy.But that’s what I am!I’d never even seen this much cash before the king had me follow him over to his personal vault and loaded up this Goddess-awful brown bag with most of his stash. The stupid old man didn’t even hide the combination from me. I repeated it like a hundred times in my head until I was out of there and found a pen and paper to wr

He Can't Be Mated to Me

MaddieI’m jolted awake, still curled into the seat of the carriage. I’m not sure how I even managed to fall asleep with all the bumps and swerves, but I must have slept for a while because the starry night has been replaced by a view of gnarly branches above me.But I’m not awake because we hit a rut. We’ve stopped.Am I home?The carriage door opens wide, and the full light of the morning sun comes flooding in, nearly blinding me. Instinctively, I cover my chest with my arms, but of course, I’m still fully dressed and have revealed nothing to the gruff, rugged driver who is peering inside.“Time to get out,” he says curtly.I nod, not really having a choice in the matter, grab my bag, and climb out of the carriage.But... though everything looks familiar, we’d stopped miles down the road that leads to my farm.“We’re not there yet,” I tell him. “It’s at least five miles down that way to my family’s farm.”He sighs, heavily, and whirls around to spit across the road before turning ba

Prayers to the Moon Goddess

Zachariah“Move the fuck out of my way.”The guards in front of my father’s door, who’d had the nerve to move closer together and brandish their weapons at my approach, startle at my command. I can see it in their eyes and feel it through the Alpha sense.One moves to the side immediately. The other hesitates, but only for a second, before jumping out of my way.Wisely.I shove the doors open so hard they rattle on their hinges and slam into the walls on either side. My father, who is on the other side of the room bending over, his butt, wrapped in thin-stretching fabric, on display to the world, lifts his head so quickly he forgets about the shelf above him.“Ouch!” he bellows. “Motherfucker! Who the fuck is coming into my chambers and damn near breaking my doors?!” He holds his head as he slides out of his uncomely position, his eyes wide when he sees me. But his shock only lasts a beat before he narrows them, spinning around so he’s sitting on the floor, his legs splayed. “Oh, it’s

Is This Real?

Maddie“He’s going to come after you.” My friend, Terri, doesn’t even look at me when she says the words. We’re both sitting on the edge of the creek by her house, the last reliable source of water in the area, our dresses hiked up to our knees and our feet in the water while we each scrub our respective families’ laundry on our washboards.“Who?”She halts mid-scrub to side-eye me. “Seriously?”“You’re not talking about the prince?” I ask. “You know I don’t like talking about him, Terri.”“I know you don’t, but that’s only because you think it’s all over between you,” she replies instead of answering, which most definitely does answer my question. “I don’t blame you. If I was mated to the prince and thought he didn’t want me, my heart would absolutely stop beating.”“This isn’t helping,” I remind her. She knows quite well that I’m barely surviving day to day. Well, it’s only been two days since I made it home, but every minute without Zachariah feels like a torturous eternity.“But I

Call Me Zach

ZachAs soon as I see Lucas wrap his hand around that of the woman who must be his mate, I turn back to my own gift from the Goddess.Madeline... Maddie, as she prefers, is a stunning natural beauty. Of course, I saw it the first time I laid eyes on her, when she first arrived at the castle in a simple dress.Later, I had the pleasure of seeing her dressed as a courtier, her hair perfectly styled, her figure delicate beneath the elaborate gown. I could tell her lady’s maid used only a hint of makeup, and even that amount was completely unnecessary given her natural beauty.But here, Maddie is in her element, a sight to behold. Her strawberry locks flow gently in the breeze, occasionally settling in front of her cheek, when I have the pleasure of brushing them aside and tucking them behind her ear. Her smile is wide and genuine, raw and unpracticed, a refreshing pace from the courtesans I’m used to encountering, including April, I realize, who practice fake smiles and feign interest in

Come with Me

MaddieI’ve never seen our farm so bustling with activity. Or maybe I have, but I was so young at the time that my brain must have scrubbed the memory on some long-past night in deep sleep. Today, though, so many people are coming and going with supplies that I can hear them even inside the house in the kitchen.I certainly didn’t sleep last night, feeling my mate so close, with him and his Beta camping outside on the grass. My father had offered him a room, mine and Katy’s, to be exact, without my presence, naturally, for propriety’s sake. Zach, of course, had refused to displace us.I can’t pretend I didn’t spend all night wondering what it would have been like sharing the room with Zach instead of Katy, ignoring all propriety. I dismiss that soon, horrified by the thought of doing... that... for the first time in a room right next to my parents. Tingles of heat rise in my cheeks at the thought of it, and I try to tamp them down in case someone comes in.Clearing my mind of all the

Heaven in a Kiss

ZachWhat we have is good. It’s right, and we both feel it. I can tell by the way she licks her lips and sneaks a few quick glances at my mouth, and by the hum of the ribbon of connection between us. We’re mates, gifted to each other by the Moon Goddess Herself, and nothing will stand between us.But this is still a choice she has to make. I refuse to take one ounce of her agency from her. I can understand her shock and the hesitancy that followed at discovering we’re mates, her anger that my father didn’t keep one word of his promise to her parents, and my sudden pressure—I admit it’s pressure—about going back with me.I’m still the heir apparent, and there are things happening within the castle that need to be addressed right away. April needs to pack her bags and get the hell out. I can’t displace her father since he’s one of my father’s closest advisors. But that doesn’t mean I have to walk the same halls with his daughter, a woman who would disguise herself as a friend for so man

Going Home

MaddieHome. I always thought of it as the house and land right in front of me, where my parents, my sisters, and my brother are close by. We shared many holidays together here. The Winter Solstice celebrations were my favorite, all of us sitting around singing songs while my father played his handmade guitar—well, until he had to sell it two years ago, but even the singing alone was magical.But now I have to consider a new type of home, one with Zach. It might be the castle, or maybe it will be our own farm, or that cottage in the woods I keep dreaming about.When I left for the castle before, I was certain it was temporary, that I wouldn’t be chosen as the breeder and that I’d come back to this place, my home, again soon. Now, things are different. I suppose all women go through this when they discover their mates. Home is with one’s mate.My home is with Zach.Tears fall down my mother’s cheeks, but I sense there is some happiness behind them, unlike the last time I left.“I’m not

Mated

MaddieThe look of concern on Zach’s face fades into a knowing gaze when he walks into the room. His eyes don’t leave mine as he steps toward me, closing the distance between us.He reaches for me, brushing his palm lightly against my cheek. We say nothing, just remain locked in our gaze. His scent dominates the room, drowning out the floral of the bathtub with the sweet aroma of chocolate and caramel.I’ve never had a man—or anyone—command my attention the way he does now. His sapphire eyes swirl with need, searching deep inside me. Ordinarily, I’d turn away at such a dominant presence that asserts such a sense of ownership. But I find myself craving it, knowing that sense of belonging works both ways. We’re equals.He is mine. I am his.The air grows thick around us when he puts his lips on mine. It’s just a soft touch at first, not tentative, just gentle and loving. I part my lips the moment he deepens the kiss, craving the feeling I had when we kissed before. I close my eyes, rela
