Her steely gaze held disappointment and sadness. I don't give a damn, though. She can join the club. Bastian, a dragon shifter from the dragon realm, came to see me and his gaze held disappointment too. It also contained the added touch of anger, which I deserved. In my grief over the death of my beloved bride, I tried to kidnap Bastian's son, Ashrac. The human bride of Laryn, another of my dragon brothers, tried to stop me. I practically burned her to a crisp, incinerating most of her body. The horror of what I did haunts me, and forgiveness is not what I seek.

Her arm swung in a perfect arc, catching the fang midair, and in one fluid motion, she was beside me, crouched like a warrior ready to strike. Jace gasped. “What the—” Even I was stunned. She stood there, chest heaving, blood trickling from her scalp where he’d pulled her hair, the fang gripped tightly in her bruised fingers. Her eyes were wild but clear. Focused.

Alpha Dominic is literally the alpha of her pack. You know how crooked he is, he hates you”

They'd survived thirteen years of neglect, waiting underground for someone to give them a chance to bloom again. She carefully cleared around them, gave them space to breathe, and felt something uncomfortably like hope stir in her chest. She crushed it immediately. Hope was dangerous. Hope made you soft, made you hesitate. She was here for revenge, not redemption. It was a Tuesday morning, barely past dawn, when Celeste found her. Sera was on her knees by the fountain, scrubbing years of grime from the stone basin, when she heard the sharp click of expensive heels on the pathway.

SELENE "Do you know what this means?!" Henry shot out of his chair. "This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity! If we play our cards right, we can have everything we ever wanted!"

I'm the one who'll have every inch of my existence judged and scrutinized. I know the Royal Lycan family. They're not an easy bunch."

‘I just hope that my brothers are on their way to clean up Shananel once and for all,’ Alpha Liam hoped at the back of his mind. x-x-x-x-x LAST PORT OF THE NORTHERNOST COAST (WEREWOLF COMMITTEE’S TERRITORY) “Shananel Ritchell is really going all out,” Gelong muttered under his breath.

However, the relentless onslaught from Britney persisted, effortlessly dodged by Freya. As the skirmish unfolded, my concerns for Freya diminished; she strategically used her intellect, giving me confidence that she aimed to tire out her opponent and strike back when necessary.

The Lycan king however had a blank expression on his face , like an empty shell with none of the emotions or feelings inside. I turned around to face him. His gaze was piercing into mine, yet his icy blue eyes were burning with fury. His body was tense, like he was about to attack at any given moment. I limped to where the moon flame was and hesitantly, I placed my hand against it . I felt warm, the heat emanating from the fire was strong and soothing.
