After her parents are killed in a pack attack, Celia escapes the clutches of the alpha and his notorious pack members only to find herself face to face with the youngest Lycan Prince, Jasper. He is someone everybody avoids, nobody understands and even the King is wary of. "Just kill me and be done with it” I said as irritation building up inside me found its escape through my tongue. I was not even afraid of death anymore. I could even picture meeting my parents again in the afterlife. "Things have gotten too interesting for that” He replied, dragging me out of my thoughts. He gave me a malicious look and a smile that did not reach his eyes. Death would have been an easy way out but there was no escaping Prince Jasper.
View MoreCelia I raised my hand and ran straight at Jasper who stood where he was. His hands were still in his pockets and he barely stepped aside as I tried to hit him. In one smooth move, he twisted the dagger out of my hand, knocking it off as it clattered to the ground. “You are distracted” He muttered as he bent down, plucked the dagger from the floor, and threw it to the target in one straight shot. Again, it hit the bullseye. Though I knew it had, I couldn’t help but turn around and check for myself. He saw me looking at the small shortsword that was still vibrating due to the impact. “And you lost, again. So do as I say. Strip for me” His eyes darkened as he looked at me. He did not advance toward me nor did he look the slightest bit aroused. There was that signature smug look on his face that annoyed the hell out of me. “Now” He repeated in an even voice and the walls trembled a little. There was barely a hint of power in his voice, the slightest tinge of authority but it mad
Celia I hated him. I hated him to the core. That was what I kept telling myself as his lips found mine and he began kissing me, hungrily. Well, I could play the game too. Our mutual passion or fury or whatever it was could serve as a perfect outlet to subdue one another. There was nothing to lose. I could kiss him back, make him come undone just like the day I had sucked him clean and wiped off that smirk off his face. That would redeem me. His moans would be brownie points. I fought to keep my head in the game but soon his hands left mine and began trailing downward. I was hyperaware of the way his fingers slowly, deliberately trailed down the path to my body. Meanwhile, I was being ravaged by his lips which demanded more access. I fought my body’s need to comply but Goddess my mind was on the losing end already. “Celia” He breathed just one word, my name and I let go of the leash I had placed upon myself, restricting me. “Kiss me, harder” I muttered and he obliged, flick
CeliaMy cheeks were flush, not with desire but with rage. I was mad at him and I felt the wave of jealousy rolling off of me while my eyes were glued on their hands that were still woven together.“Nym, let us talk later”He said in a sweet voice as she stepped away from him.“If you say so, prince”But he still held her hand and stopped her as he muttered, “Everything is good between us, right? You forgive me?”Nymeria gave him a smile and placed her hand on his and gave him a reassuring squeeze.“Don’t worry, you can always count on me”Jasper too gave her a smile. Not his usual sly grin but a genuine smile. A real one.And that made me feel even more jealous.I was suddenly feeling murderous and the need to bury the knife into the target was overwhelming.“I believe you did as asked,” Jasper murmured to her softly as I angrily walked past them to grab a knife from the table.“Yes my prince”On another note, why just 1 knife?So, I simply plucked the entire goddamn tray and held it
Celia When I had nothing to throw up and my stomach was empty of every single thing I had forced down my throat in the past few hours, I turned the tap on and washed my mouth and face. I looked at my reflection. I really looked like a homeless person when compared to Nymeria in her long silk gown that hugged her curves perfectly. She was everything I was not. I looked at myself, and the state I was in, and angrily yanked the towel from the hanger and dabbed at my face, wiping out the bile. After splashing some more water on my face, I decided to walk out of the washroom, without bothering to dry it. Nymeria was standing by the side of the table, waiting for me. Her dress seemed to be made of water. It was a flowing, ethereal creation that seems to float around her like a cloud. It is made of delicate, gossamer-like fabric, and its soft, pale pink hue complements her rosy cheeks and full lips. I blinked, trying to focus on something else. “You are not feeling well dear. I think
CeliaI tried hard not to shiver as he looked at me with that predatory gaze.“Though I should add that I don’t think you are ready for it.”Yeah, granted I was shivering under his gaze, he would feel that but hey, I was still standing in the room and had not left.He had to give me credit for it.“Why? Are you afraid I might surpass your expectations?” I taunted, donning more bravado than I actually felt.I wanted him near me by hook or crook. It was too painful to stand this close to him yet not be able to reach for his face and kiss those damn lips again.Yes, I had officially lost it.But then I was never quite the woman I usually was whenever he was around.Jasper gave a sly grin, “I would be more than happy if you did kitten. But, I doubt you would be able to”Oh. He was challenging me.All thoughts of exhaustion and tiredness flew out of the window as I jutted my chin up and spoke in a loud and clear voice.“Try me”Jasper was lying on the bed so he got up and placed himself in
CeliaI gave him a wicked smile as I held that small vial in my hand. While he had been lost in the heat rising up from our bodies, I had sneakily reached for the vial.I wore a satisfied smile on my face, grinning from ear to ear as I held the vial proudly in my hand. It held a bluish sheen to it and glimmered faintly as I hedl it.Jasper only kept looking at me, grinning back.Wait, why was he grinning?Something was not right.The way his eyes danced and a playful smile adorned his lips somehow made my smile crumble.I frowned a bit and furrowed my eyebrows.“Why are you smiling?”I asked him, feeling unable to help myself. “My lips, I can smile whenever I want”He responded and slowly reached for the vial.“Uh huh” Not so fast, your highness” I muttered, stretching my hand and holding it as far from him as possible.“Ok, task over, now give it back to me” He said but I shook my head.“No, first you have to agree that you are taking me to the ball with you. Just me”He cocked an ey
Jasper I had come here to find an ally in her, I had decided after hearing her scream somebody else’s name in her sleep that I would not go near her, that I would keep my distance. But my little kitten had walked out of my bathroom wearing nothing other than my shirt. The last time I had seen her in my clothes or just my shirt, I had found it incredibly sexy and hot. That time I had barely restrained myself, knowing and judging by her reactions that either this was her first kiss or she was being kissed after a long time. There was something about seeing her in my shirt that turned me on like nothing else. I had decided to whisk her away and again probably make her cry but then I was stunned to see her in my shirt. Her long slender legs were bare as the shirt almost reached her mid thigh but Goddess she looked so damn beautiful. I mentally restrained myself hard, not wanting to show how much that sight affected me, and willed myself to not jump on her the moment she walked out o
Celia“So you want me?”He asked and I tried to hide the rosy blush that crept up my cheeks. I lowered my head but he immediately cupped my chin and brought my face up to hold his gaze.“Answer me, Celia”He spoke, his voice turning huskier and I saw a muscle in his jaw twitch.“I want to meet Ivan and you are the road to reach him so yes I do want you,” I said plastering a huge smile.I could lie if I tried hard, partially…maybe?“I thought you gave up on the idea after your failure…your rather abysmal failure. I think asking you to seduce me won’t work so how about flirting? Can you flirt?”He stated in a plain voice but it felt like an evaluation nonetheless. “I don’t give up easily” I spoke and tried not to shiver given our nearness. His hands were resting on my bare skin and had slid down a little when I had wriggled to get out of his hold, thinking of running away.“Sure, you can try again if you wish. Your time starts now.”Huh?Jasper said and began walking away from me. “W
