While often mistaken for deliberate enchantment, the allure is an involuntary trait..." An involuntary growl rumbled in his chest. Involuntary. Meaning Rita wasn't doing this to him on purpose. Meaning his father was wrong about— The page tore under his fingers. Nathan cursed, smoothing the parchment.

She hated me and wouldn't even return an email. Out of desperation, I resorted to sorcery, as advised by the last doctor from Arcana Hills who came to treat her. They believed Irene's case was caused by sorcery, just as Irene had claimed too but who would do that to her? Arcana hills was known as an academy that had Zero tolerance for sorcery, so having one of their best give an advise to use sorcery, I felt I had no other choice. But soon I learnt the hard way: sorcery was never something to play with because for every spell that was cast, a consequence followed, and I wasn't prepared for it.

he breathed, his voice cracked with emotion, “goddess… you are real.” A tear slipped down my cheek. I didn’t even know why. Maybe because, this, him, this bond, this warmth, felt like something I had prayed for in another lifetime. Something I never thought someone like me would ever have. Rowan cleared his throat loudly. “Well,” he announced, clapping, “if anyone needs me, I’ll just be...oh I don’t know...quietly sobbing into a tree because romance is alive and well.” Fenric didn’t even look away from me, though a tiny smile ghosted across his mouth.

"You want a puppet who'll nod and smile. However, now the puppet's strings are cut, and you're freaking out." Francis' expression turned icy. "I'm not freaking out." "Then why switch my meds?" I asked, a challenge. "You're terrified. Terrified that without those drugs, I'll realize I don't love…" His response was to kiss me, a fierce, angry kiss.

It was a kiss unlike any other in the ten years I had known him, fueled by both lust and a need to punish.

She imagined what it would feel like on the other parts of her body again. "Sil? Sil?" She snapped out of her thoughts though it took a little shake. "Penny for your thoughts". She smiled.

What were you saying?" "Master Arcus left me a book, Magix of death and life." Sil looked at him wide eyed. "Isn't that the book about Necromancy?"

Aurora’s POV The morning sun painted the archives in shades of gold as I pored over another ancient text. Mason sat across from me at the massive oak table, our knees occasionally brushing as we worked. Each accidental touch sent sparks of celestial energy dancing through the air, making the old books around us pulse with responsive magic. "Look at this," I said, pushing a weathered tome toward him. "Another reference to the Shadow Lords' manipulation of the mate bond. They've been interfering with destined pairs for centuries."

The others leaned in closer, their expressions piqued with curiosity. "Alaric?" Samantha repeated, a look of confusion on her face. "I've never heard of him." "That's because his existence has been erased from the history books when he was defeated over forty years ago," Lucas replied. "My parents told me about him when I was younger. Alaric was a Lycan who believed himself to be a god. He claimed to have been blessed by the moon goddess herself, and he convinced others to worship him as a divine being. Alaric's followers were fanatical and would do anything he commanded, even if it meant causing harm to innocent people."

he said when he looked back and Ara immediately saw the strange message attached to his smile that touched her heart deeply. "You're really crazy," she said, unable to stop herself from laughing because of that. Daniel did not speak and instead turned around for a moment to give her that attractive wink. And as usual, Ara immediately felt the intense warmth on her face because of what the young man did. But the annoyance was gone and instead, Ara just felt the pure romantic excitement at what Daniel did. Her knight in shining armor.

Although I had that power inside me but I knew that it's activation was something really difficult and I had been researching on it all these years when I knew he will return for me. I saw a beautiful rainbow forming in the clouds and as I stepped forward to have a clear view of it a cold pair of hands surrounded my waist and the lips landed on my neck. The grip was too strong for me to even turn my head by an inch, the cold lips kissed my neck as I struggled to free myself. I was about to use my magic to push that person away but almost at that time he bit me which send a wave of screeching pain through my body and instantly drained all the energy out of it a loud scream came out of my mout
