"I've got everything arranged," I said, forcing a smile as I handed him the gift I'd been holding onto this whole time. "I came to say… happy fifth mating anniversary, Alaric." He looked startled, clearly having forgotten it was our fifth anniversary, let alone expecting me to travel all this way to bring him a gift.

She could not rely on Ethan’s version of truth anymore. Dust swirled in the beam of her flashlight. She pushed aside cracked picture frames, winter coats eaten by moths, boxes of old letters.

The ribbon was stained darker in places, as though it had once been wet with blood. Her hands shook as she untied it. Inside were handwritten pages, her mother’s script looping and sharp.

You know what, why don't you keep your five million and sleep with me? I can give you benefits.”

Cara agrees and I smile because I said the truth, in five years, I hope I still have my girls, hope I am married to Caden, and hope Xavier, Damian are back, they've been gone enough.

"Yes, it's about this woman, her life -- " She sees our expression and shuts up temporarily about the story I am sure she'd continue later. "In five years, I want to be, drum rolls please, alive.

he said and Olivia looked up from the book that she was reading. After sending Jaime away with the n***l that he had bought for her some hours ago, Olivia had went back to her room and searched her luggages for the book she had once buried deep inside one of her boxes. It was her favorite n***l and when she finally found it, she couldn't stop the tears that were rushing down her cheeks. The last time she opened that book was about eight years ago. Before the love of her life died.

Rex confessed. It was all Rex. He took the men down like a beast. The leader gave a skeptical glance and then glanced his way at me. "You must be very proud of your man, señorita. But sadly, you won't be able to see him." Fear broke out. "What do you mean?" "As I said, we only came for six women." Six? But only five. Claire is back in the hotel with Don. She should be safe since they are unaware of it. Only five are on this boat.

But I couldn’t risk anything happening to Katrina's body. I mind linked my brother, it was time. “Rowen?” I said. “Ramses? What’s wrong?” He instantly asked through the mind link. “I have Pandora’s Box, and I’m coming back right now… But there is something you should be prepared for.” I said to him, and then I closed the mind link. and materialized back to his home.

Tyr pointed his fingers at his brain and continued, “I believe you’ll outperform Senior Belisarius now that you are in charge of the Red Tower.” Jim asked Olympias to refill a bowl of grits for him. He blew at the food to cool it down before replying, “Boss, you don’t have to flatter me. The Liberated will take action soon, so we need to branch out. I’ll go to the Dragon Palace to find the third book, whereas you need to take a flight to find the fourth book.” “Hmm.

"Anyways we had a lot of fun together, although I was not his only customer he paid me generously, one time he even offered me a gold book, quite the treasure it was. Then he suddenly disappeared, everyone in the red district was sad when he did." Oliviér jolted away from the counter. "Repeat that." "Everyone in the red district—" "No, you mentioned treasure?" Alistair nodded with glee. "Ah yes, the book was so beautiful. I still can not open it till today but I have never seen such a beautifully made book."
