Semua Bab The Opalescent Kingdom: Bab 81 - Bab 90

"I am so ready to be done pumping. Can't we just switch them to formula?" I groaned, crawling into the bed beside Bastion. It was nearly 7:30 and Rory still hadn't gotten home yet. He was normally back by 6, but we figured he just had some things to wrap up before the weekend.This was his first Friday at his new job.Bastion chuckled at my exaggerated dismay, running his hand tenderly down my cotton covered stomach."We can do whatever you want to do, baby. It's your body." His husky voice assured me, his lips pressing smoldering kisses up my shoulder and neck. I moaned at the electrifying sensation crawling beneath my skin and pooling in my core."I can think of something else I want to do with my body." I confessed, swinging my leg and body over until I was straddling my mate, my lips hovering over his as my hands supported me on either side of his head.He gripped my hips, pulling them down to press against his erect cock, filling my body with unbridled desire. He groaned at the s

I surrendered the letter I had held onto so tightly for the past week.Anthony's eyes lit up at the familiar script before darkening with dread as he took in the words on the page."Oh my–" My mom couldn't even finish her words, her brown eyes already wetting with tears of pity for her only child. "Aria." Her quiet voice wavered, breaking the dam to my oppressed emotions."Mom." I choked out, covering my face with my hands as harsh sobs racked my body. I felt her warm embrace within seconds, consoling and comforting my trembling form. "He left, mom. He betrayed us all.""I know, baby. Shh. It's all going to work out. He'll come to his senses." She cooed in my ear, placing loving kisses on my forehead. But I knew that wasn't true. Call it pessimistic, but they didn't hear how stable his heart sounded as he walked away that night.He wasn't in his right mind. How could he come to his senses when his senses were long gone?Anthony didn't speak for a long time, but I could hear the viciou

Holy shit.I just had an affair. With Lysander. Sanguine One. God of vampires.My best friend.And I told him I loved him.I kept my eyes closed while he cleaned me, utterly humiliated by my actions. He must think I'm a complete slut right now.He tried to stop me, tried to get me to think it through, but all I could focus on was claiming him, body and soul.I wanted him, I truly did.Not just sexually, either. I wanted him to hold me afterwards, to kiss my forehead and tell me how much I loved me, too.But he didn't.He left.Trotted out to sea with a bottle of liquor in his hands.If the sting of Rory's abandonment hadn't been so intense, Lysander would've really wounded my pride.I had thought that he had feelings for me as well, but maybe I was wrong. I thought back to what he was saying during the act of my infidelity, blushing hot when I recalled his naughty words.He called me sexy. He said he wanted to put his cock in me.He kissed me first.Maybe I was being insecure for no r

Rory's POVWithin an hour I was on a private jet headed straight to Michigan.This wasn't going to be an easy mission.I had to somehow persuade the Moon Goddess, who I was sure was already aware of my treachery, that I come in peace. Distract her enough for my backup to attack. That was my goal.As soon as we landed I was given a Black Ferrari with a GPS already programmed to bring me to her house. I didn't even know if she'd be there. I could be wasting my time.I glanced in my rearview mirror as I followed the winding roads along the great lake, making sure my men weren't within eyesight.They were all equipped with special pendants that were meant to shield them from Luna's mind reading abilities. I didn't know how well they would work, since they basically radiated dark magic, but we had no other options.If I could restrain her first...I glanced down at my phone for the hundredth time since landing back in the states. I texted Aria to let her know I was here, though she hadn't

"I called Bastion and told him that Rory was here. He's on his way home, now.""No! It's his first day there! What if they fire him?" I asked, horrified by his brash decision. Lysander shook his head, approaching the tub gracefully with the bottle of oil I requested. He added a few drops before lowering himself to lean against the enamel side.I was still curled into a tight ball, even in the water.Even though I knew he didn't mean to, Rory did hurt me when he changed positions, and my ass was burning and sore.I had never felt more embarrassed and degraded in my life, and I hated that he kept surprising me with the terrible things he was capable of."I told him that, but he said, and I quote, 'fuck them, I'll be there in ten.'" I couldn't help but laugh at the obvious accuracy of his quote. Bastion never did care about what people thought of him. But if he lost this job, we would have no way to live. Rory didn't exactly leave his credit card with us.Seeing the concern etched on my
