Pokémon Sword And Shield Rival

Marina had spent her life clawing against poverty, illness, and desperation. With her mother and brother gravely unwell and her family barely surviving, she makes a dangerous choice. To become a royal consort. Trading her body and freedom for the power to save the people she loves. It is not romance she seeks, but leverage. King Xanthanius was murdered by betrayal and brought back from the dead by a single, fatal error made during his killing. Immortal but incomplete, half of his life force was stolen, leaving his resurrection imperfect and his existence unstable. Determined to reclaim what was taken, he rules with calculated cruelty and a singular obsession. Restoring his immortality at any cost. When Marina enters his court as a consort, Xanthanius initially sees her as nothing more than a crowd to his space then a disposable pawn, useful for navigating political traps and accomplishing delicate tasks beneath a King’s notice. But Marina is not as expendable as he assumes. Her presence is an untold key to the missing half of his immortality. She is tied to the very power Xanthanius needs to survive. Bound by mutual exploitation, desire, and distrust, Marina and Xanthanius use each other to pursue their own ends until ambition blurs into intimacy and manipulation gives way to something far more dangerous. Because falling in love with Marina may cost Xanthanius the immortality he’s willing to kill for and Marina must decide whether saving her family is worth destroying the man she’s come to care for. #romantasy #darkromance #mistress #ruthlessking #steamy

Pour notre septième anniversaire, mon compagnon, l'Alpha Ethan, a envoyé ma fille et moi à l'Autel de la Déesse de la Lune. Il m'a dit que c'était une surprise, pour offrir à notre fille son rêve d'observer une pluie de météores depuis le plus haut sommet du territoire. Mais Ethan n'est jamais venu. Les runes protectrices à mes pieds ont crépité, puis se sont éteintes. Le sol sous nos pieds a commencé à s'effriter. Ma fille a hurlé, son petit corps glissant vers l'abîme. Je me suis précipitée, attrapant sa main juste avant qu'elle ne bascule dans le vide. J'ai hurlé le nom d'Ethan à travers notre lien mental. Quatre-vingt-dix-neuf fois, il a refusé de répondre. À mon centième appel, le lien ne s'est pas simplement ouvert, il a été déchiré violemment. Ce n'a pas été sa voix qui a répondu. Ce sont ses sensations qui envahissent les miennes. J'ai tout vu. Lui. Une autre louve. Et lui, profondément enfoui en elle. « Je savais que tu m'aimais, Ethan, » a roucoulé sa voix doucereuse. « Tu as même sacrifié Marcus, juste pour sauver notre Leo de la maladie de l'âme. Je ferai n'importe quoi pour toi. » La voix d'Ethan était velours et glace. « Arrête. Si Sera ne m'avait pas trahi, tu n'aurais jamais eu la chance de porter mon héritier. Une fois que je me serai débarrassé de son autre rejeton, le bâtard de Julian, nous pourrons à nouveau être parfaits. » Mon monde s'est effondré. Mon fils… Les renégats. J'avais toujours cru que des renégats l'avaient enlevé. Mais c'était son propre père. Il l'avait sacrifié pour un mensonge. Avec ma dernière once de force, j'ai appelé Julian. « Je romps mon lien avec Ethan, » ai-je grondé dans le nouveau lien. « Fais de moi ta Luna. En échange, je t'aiderai à réduire sa meute en cendres. »​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
