***ReinnI exited... more like flew through a narrow passage and finally found myself on the other side, basking in lamp light. Once I knew that thing was far behind me, I hunched over placing my hands on my knees and sucked in a deep breath. My hand was still shaking and I had to force a fist to keep it still.That thing, masked in Aries' skin... Aries' body, had been in my head, burrowing through my thoughts. Imbedded in my feelings… combing those nightmares that plagued me since I was a child. Those night terrors that kept me from sleeping more than a few hours at a time. The ones that woke me in a cold sweat.But not when I was with her. With her in my thoughts, I had no room for the past. For my regrets.I walked out and a podium stood affix with an altar in the center. Two marble pillars were placed on opposite sides of the dias. Magic illuminated the vast space, ceiling rose as high as my imagination. A thick sense of unease swallowed me from the room, invisible eyes watching m

***ReinnI pressed my head to her throat, buried myself in the familiar scent of my mate. Her skin had already grown cold against my mouth. I lapped anxiously at her wound, metallic grit coating my tongue. But it wasn’t working. She wasn’t waking… wasn’t responding. Her lips turned blue. Her flesh paled, the flush of her cheeks waning.“Please Goddess! Please save my Aries!” I begged the heavens above.She was too good, too pure to die now. I had defeated the witch, cursed her to this forsaken place for all eternity but still, Aries hadn't come back to me. My hands trembled as they curled around her pallid face. Blood covered my hands as I smeared trails across her chin. I pulled her to my bare chest, enveloping her with all the warmth and energy I could muster.The Luna ran to me, dropping to her knees at the sight of her bloodied child. She held Aries’ hand as she cried into her palms. Her eyes pleaded with mine, to do something. To save her. The Luna had just gotten her back... all

***AriesOur wolves frolicked and ran through the forest for hours. After shifting back, we cooled off by wading in the calming pool as the falls fell at our backs. We explored each other’s bodies once again and found ourselves naked on the grassy shore, wrapped in each other’s arms.The sun warmed the glistening beads of water from our skin and I traced my fingers along the tattoos stretched down his arms. We watched as the radiant hues stretched across the edging horizon. No fear swelled in my chest. No anxiety of the witch’s return panicked my insides as it neared sunset.It was only the two of us. Finally together.He kissed my forehead and pulled me closer, as if reading my thoughts. My mind was quiet, as serene waves washed over and tickled my feet. I placed my lips softly upon his, bathing in his warm caress. I laid my head on his chest, listening to the steady rhythm of his heart. His hands began fumbling with the wet strands of my hair.“Are you… are you playing with my hair?

***GiselleNow if my time in this prison wasn’t bad enough, it was maintained by the Devlin Brothers. Rumored to be five of the most cocky and arrogant country boys, who ruled this desert with a cracked whip and iron fist… hence the name, Iron Claw.I had only met three of the brothers so far – Jacob, Gavin, and Asher.They often reminded me that my mouth… the venomous words spewed from my lips wouldn’t be tolerated. But what they didn’t understand was – I didn’t follow by their rules nor anyone else’s. And I wouldn’t be intimidated by these assholes. They didn’t scare me one bit.“Let’s go, princess. Beautiful morning, isn’t it?” Gavin Devlin taunted, glaring down at me from dark tinted sunglasses. He handed me a cup of water as he opened the door of the Blue Box, where I had slept the entire night before. I snatched it from his grasp and chugged the remains with a sneer. If I wasn’t so thirsty, I would have spit it back in his smug little face while he grinned like a Cheshire cat.
