Breaking The Cardinal Rule Novels & Stories

he finally said, his voice breaking, "was obedience. Absolute, unquestioning obedience. It was the cornerstone of everything, the foundation upon which all else was built. A sub has to obey, without hesitation, without question. To disobey was to break the most sacred rules." He fell silent, his confession hanging heavy in the air. Ava reached out, taking his hand, her touch gentle and understanding. The rules had been a shield, a barrier against the fear of being truly seen, truly known. But in revealing them, in trusting Ava with his deepest, darkest secrets, Carver had taken a step towards healing, towards a love that was real and unencumbered by the past.

“The rules exist for a reason, cousin. And the fastest way to break a man is through his heart.” “You’re a coward.” The growl ripped from my throat before I could stop it. I felt Nitta and Fukui tense beside me, seconds from snapping. But I didn’t care. “The rules ensure that consequences fall on us. Never on them.” My teeth clenched so tightly my jaw ached. Women and children were never supposed to be part of this. Never. But Petros… Petros never played by the rules. He just stared at me, reveling in my frustration, feeding off it. I was close to snapping.

And now, everything was falling apart. I needed to put her to her place once and for all. My vision blurred briefly, warning me that I had to hurry up with Calantha and send her out of here before this beast consumed the both of us. The last thing I would want would be to make her my third victim. Romance was never my forte anyway. Love wasn’t made for a man like me. “You broke the biggest rule we agreed on,” I hissed, still holding back the chaos in my chest. “You didn’t just disrespect the deal we made. You disrespected me. Your king.”

“I only have a few rules I need you to abide by when working for me.” “Okay. Lay then on me.” He kept his eyes on the road. We weren’t far from my house now. “First, you don’t let anyone in my house. I don’t want to see any of your friends partying by the pool or going through my private things.” “No problem there.” I chuckled but he didn’t so much as smirk. “Second, you don’t give anyone that code. It’s specific to you and will be monitored.” Wow, this guy was persistent. I mean I’m not a child. I don’t have to be told something a million times to understand it.

I swear—" His fingertip finally brushes over me, feather-light, and my whole body jolts. My thighs press together, trapping him there. "Rule three." His voice is gravel, low and unyielding, as he presses just enough for sparks to crackle through me. "You come when I say. Not before." "Ahhh—" I moan into his chest, the sound ripped out of me, muffled, needy. My head shakes, frantic. "Yes, yes, I’ll wait, I’ll—" He stops, and pulls his hand away, leaving me clenching around nothing, trembling. His eyes pin me like knives. "Break a rule," he says, voice cold enough to burn, "and you’re done."

I heard Maddy took them out earlier today and would love to see how they were doing. "Don't you think you should've gone a little easier on the man?" Kael asked beside me. I'd handed a lot of men today, but I knew the one he was referring to. "He broke the rule. What did you expect?" "I know he broke the rule. But I've seen you let go of similar cases of recent." And I hate myself for showcasing that level of weakness. "I am merely acting like a King. If anyone breaks the rule, they get punished for it. It's as simple as that."

he shrugged, “one and done and all.” I tried to push away from him, but my body betrayed me as my hips moved against him and then my mouth decided it needed to join in, “my rules weren’t made to be broken, but, maybe just once.” What the fuck did I just say, NO, I don’t break my own rules, and we have a contract so double and triple NO’s. I shook my head, “yea, sorry forgot we have a contract so NO, that can’t happen.”

BUSINESS FIRST. PAY TRIBUTE TO THE BOSS. DON’T MESS WITH CIVILIANS. INITIATIONS ARE SACRED. He stared long and hard at the words, barely blinking. He didn’t even hear the sharp click of heels echoing through the hall. “Cardinal Rule Number 6,” came the lilting voice. “Honor all pacts with allied families.” Rios gripped the ledger before slamming it shut with a thud. “Beatrice Sandoval.” He said it with such contempt, it felt like the ground shook with his fury. “You came after all.”

Chandra pulled Amara away. "Stop." "Don't try to rule me, Chandra!" "Then don't do anything against my rules! Or I will shut you up." The last line she just stated served as a tranquilizer to me- it made me freeze- stopping me to eat Amara. Into the thin air, I shouted, and I growled. The nearby wolves responded, including Amara. But Chandra didn't. One thing is for sure, she isn't part of our race, and this place is not werewolves' realm. Just the parallel of my world.
