All Chapters of Bonded to the Elf king: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

I had felt something strange when I stepped into the room. It was a strong herbal smell, something that always clung to Zipphora, which made me pause for a second. Zipphora wasn’t in the room, and neither was she in the castle even. She was in her own home, so why would I smell magic? More importantly, why was I smelling magic in Eloise’s bedroom.It didn’t take me long to see through it. I was an Elf King after all, so while she – Lyara, walked to me, with the cloaking spell in place, I had to keep myself from snapping. Eloise was my priority and I needed to know what she had done with her. Where was she? Where was my mate? And how the fuck was this wolf doing in my home again.The last time i had caught her here, i had made sure to warn her sternly never to return, but she did. She had guts. Was she trying to find Ian? As she walked closer to me, and even dared to touch me, I had to admit that her cloaking spell was good. She looked like Eloise. Everything was in place but she cou

OlpheusSweat dripped down my forehead, and I sank to my knees.She had a smug smile on her face, staring at me. “You have no idea what I have planned, what I am doing in this very moment. You will all bow to me –”“You fucking bitch,” I spit out the words angrily, looking at her in disgust. “You had the nerve to come into my home, hurt my beloved and use forbidden magic on me? You will pay for this, you will regret everything and I will make an example of you.” I avowed, my anger burning through me.She frowned, losing her confidence for one second, and that was all needed.My guards burst into the room and knocked her unconscious before she could mumble out another spell.They stared at me, alarmed, and fell over their words.“Sire, what has she done to you –”“What do we do –”“What –”I cut them off, pushing past the agony in my veins. “Do not let her escape, and get me Zipphora. We need to find –”“You have a tendency of creating messes, don’t you, Olpheus?” Zipphora walked in, s

My heart couldn’t stop pounding as our bodies flushed together. Why was I still painfully affected by him despite everything? Why did I still want him? What was it about him that made my knees weak and threw my inhibitions out the window?I shut my eyes and tried not to see him with my sister but that was all I saw. I was haunted by the memory of them, the words he said to her, the way he touched her as he was touching me right now. How could he set me on fire with just a touch and yet be with her that way? It made no sense. None of this did.“Eloise,” he whispered, thickly and I looked in his eyes, blinking away my tears as despair sunk further into my heart.“I know how it feels, but give me a chance to explain, to make this right,” he begged, eyes softening and I nodded reluctantly.“I had come in here to apologize to you for leaving abruptly when I found her in the bedroom. She had used a cloaking spell, hoping to fool me, but I saw through it. Immediately she knew that I hadn’t b

He pulled away, and I groaned against the sheet, gasping wild, trying to calm my raging heart. It felt as if he had peeled my skin, layers by layers. I felt turned inside out. I was a huge mess, and so overwhelmed.“Take your time. I’m still going to be here when you’re ready.” He assured me, and when I looked at him, he had a warm smile on his face, a very pleased smile. I wanted to kiss it off, but first, I needed to catch my breathe.“Stop smiling, you …” I trailed off, not knowing what to say.He chuckled, and leaned against the bed frame, watching me happily. There was something in his expression that disarmed me, it made me happy but scared at the same time. I didn’t know what we were doing. Was there a label for it? All I knew was I was done being pathetic and defenseless, he was going to help me and he was who I wanted, only him, and no one else. It was long shot, but it was worth it.I licked my lips and crawled to him. I helped him pull down his brief, and my eyes widened wh

His gaze hardened, and when he spoke, there was no emotion in his voice. “Ian had the audacity to attack my people. He came to my home, looking for you, and he thought it was going to be easy to defeat me. I warned him not to come. I told him that I wasn’t one to be trifled with, but he came anyway. What was I supposed to do? Let him go? No. I did what I needed to do, as a King. I protected my people, and I do not have to justify my actions to you.” My head spun and I inhaled slowly, realizing that Ian had been in captivity for a while now.Bile rushed up my throat, and I staggered backwards, feeling the ground shift from under my feet.What the fuck?‘How long has Ian been here … how long has he been trapped while i went around messing around with Olpheus? … i did not only mess around with him. I slept with him, while Ian was under the same roof … what have i done? I was still mated to Ian, and I had slept with someone else … it doesn’t matter what i thought i felt for Olpheus … i a
