Karina X Winter Novels & Stories

Then paused before adding, “Wait! Send me the media asking for an interview.” I could hear the excitement in my PA’s voice before I disconnected the call. I opened the door to see the kitchen was a mess. Flour littered the floor, with some kitchen utensils scattered about. Upon walking closer, I saw Winter by the sink, her index finger under the running tap. “Are you okay?” I asked, rushing towards her. This caused her to turn to me. “I was bored, so I tried to bake,” she said, casually. “What happened?” I asked, but I didn’t need an explanation to know what had happened.

"Hmm, this is hard...I'm gonna choose owl city and before you exit. You?" "The 1975, Twenty-one pilots and owl city." "Song?" I asked. He paused to think then said, "Fireflies by owl city." I nodded in agreement...Hmm, he has a taste. "Mine is, I see fire by Ed Sheeran, Kill em with kindness by Selena Gomez, I won't give up by Jason Mraz, yeah plenty." Then I think about another question. "What is your favorite season?" "Winter." He said. I smiled, "Copycat. Mine is winter also." I said.

Jordan teased, placing the order and pretending not to notice how familiar her choice felt. Once everything was set, he dimmed the lights and turned on Elf. Malaya squealed happily as Buddy the Elf appeared on screen, immediately scooting closer into the blankets. Laila settled beside her, tucking a blanket around Malaya’s shoulders, and Jordan sat across from them, close enough to feel included without crowding the moment. One movie turned into another—A Year Without a Santa Claus, then Noelle. By the time Frozen came on, Malaya insisted it was required viewing "because it’s Christmas and it has snow." Jordan found himself humming along, smiling when Malaya belted out the lyrics with total

We both took our selfies with the windmills on our background and I was too stunned to see the result because it's like I also took a picture with Maddison. "Hey, Karin. Want to have a trivia?" she asked me and who was I to not show any interest. I love trivias. "Sure, what is it about? The windmills?" She just smiled and hooked her arm on my shoulders. "No. This is about---uhh, how should I put this one?" I gave her a chuckle. "You can just directly tell your trivia to me." "Okay? Then, Karin. Did you know that last night's the first time Aspen got himself drunk?" It made me freeze, and I only gulped.

The only one that could possibly beat them might be a Christmas store in Alaska that was actually near the North Pole. As she closed the door behind her, she spotted Mrs. Kerstman, the store owner, up on a tall ladder. She was putting the finishing touches on a display Christmas tree. Mrs. Kerstman was a thin woman with auburn hair, her warm nature matching the reddish warmth in her curls. She played Mrs. Claus every year for the children in the town and Molly couldn't imagine anyone better suited to it. Mrs. Kerstman took a moment to wave down at Molly before going back to adjusting the ornaments on the tree.

Karina POV Right on cue, Victoria Hayden, the pack's elder Luna, appeared at the door. She greeted Lila with a warm, affectionate smile before her eyes landed on me, scanning me up and down like I was something she'd scraped off her shoe. Her voice was pure honey when she spoke to Lila. "Having fun, dear? Just make yourself comfortable." Then, turning to me, her tone instantly iced over. "This is Karina, a manager from our company. She's here on work stuff."

I could tell that Morrigan was looking a little worse for wear after the ceremony for Killian, Cormac, and myself so I drew her a bath and massaged her naked body to help her relax. I think something is up, Winter isn’t feeling well either. She’s been sleeping a lot and she won’t tell me what’s going on. We’ll have to talk to her in the morning. Stark agrees, and our concern for our mate swirls around between the two of us. After her massage, Morrigan was out like a light, snoring louder than normal that I couldn’t help but take a video of her. She’s going to kill you for that. Well, I have no inclination to tell her, and don’t you go telling her or Winter either.

“Jasmine, don't you think it's funny, I guess today is a special day when witches and serial killers where born, worth a celebration.” “What did you just say?” I asked in fury. “Well, just saying…” she reached for a cup on the sink, filled it with water then poured it on my dress. “Oops.” My dress dripped with water and I just stood there mad as h*ll. “Personally I don't think witches deserve a birthday, especially ones who killed her mother.” I turned to her and slapped her on her cheek making her red. “Ah!” She exclaimed in pain then turned and grabbed my hair, I grabbed hers too, I had had enough.

Tristan asked, shocked. “Kai is Eternal, like you all. The threat will never end so we must stay with you.” Moon said. “Tris, this is the last time, man!” Kit started walking away. Rex looked confused, but that was his ‘resting wolf face’. “Who are you talking about?” Rex asked, innocently. “Winter had this very same decision to make with a few wolves a while back. He told Tristan that was the last time he was to adopt wolves into the pack without his approval.” Kit laughed at Tristan’s face and high picked objection that followed.

“You’re not happy?” “Why did you say that? I’m so happy, Crystal.” He bent and pressed a kiss to my forehead. “You’re lying. You’re still thinking of Winter, aren’t you?” My voice lowered, “She’s dead, Kallias. Your men saw it themselves she was attacked by a wild bear." Months had passed since Winter left this pack and I became the new Luna. But no matter what I did, no matter how much I gave, Kallias never truly let her go. He always told me he had never loved her, but why does her leaving haunt him so much?
