When Duty And Desire Meet Novels & Stories

Day by day Desiree would work as stream Lee hard as she was trying to figure out exactly how things were going to work for the island and the different alphas. She had sent out messages for every one of them to come to the island for a meeting. Though she didn't exactly know what she was headed for she knew that she needed to get them on board as well. She was still fighting with the council on the idea because she knew that they were going to go against anything that took power away from them. That didn't matter to her nor did she care about anybody's actual feelings. She knew what was right and she was going to work for all of that for the rest of her life if she could.

Which is how I found myself opening the Council summons claiming Darcy had conspired with Mallory and her mates to murder Quade. I set the summons aside. Even something that dire couldn’t divert my attention from the ache in my cock or the almost inescapable desire to rejoin my naked mate in our bed. I’d never felt such a soul-deep need to be one with another person before. Not even with Mallory.

“This isn’t about you—” “The hell it isn’t.” My growl rumbles through my chest, vibrating against her as I cage her closer, pressing her back until her spine meets the cold pillar of the departure gate. “Every damn thing about you will always be about me, Vivienne. About us.” Her suitcase slips from her grip, forgotten, thudding against the floor. My hand slides down her arm, over the curve of her waist, pulling her flush to me. I can feel every frantic beat of her heart against mine, feel the war inside her—duty versus desire, fear versus the pull she’ll never escape.

he stated, locking his gaze with mine, a devilish glimmer dancing in his eyes. As tension heightened between us, the stakes grew ever higher. Little did I know that our paths would intertwine in ways unforeseen, igniting a maelstrom of passion, secrets, and unexpected turns. Our lives were about to collide, testing the boundaries of love and hatred in ways neither of us could have imagined. Taking advantage of my distracted state, he slipped his hands into my shirt, igniting a rush of arousal and leaving me craving more of his touch. I despised how I always succumbed to his every caress.

With a dangerous smile on her lips, she answered: “To the Vacil Empire.” The man and woman together with the baby headed to their destination. As they drew closer to the borders of the empire, thunders clapped as lightning flashed, giving them a warm welcome. _ To Be Continued _ Authors’ Note: Thank you for reading Immortal Desire until the end.

He was fighting a battle he'd never seen coming, a conflict between his desire and his control. For fuck's sake, what is happening to me, she thought, her mind reeling, her body tight with a sharp, unfamiliar need, an overwhelming desire she'd never felt so intensely, so uncontrollably. This is impossible, I can't succumb to this, I can't let him see how deeply she affects me.

Scarlett’s hair cascaded unbound, a river of molten starlight rippling in the gentle wind, her body draped in a translucent silk gown that shimmered like a veil, so sheer it clung like mist, revealing every curve beneath, leaving nothing hidden. His breath caught, a sharp hitch in his chest, as her honey-brown eyes locked onto his, fierce and unyielding despite her servitude. The breeze seemed to freeze, the air thickening with unspoken tension, the scar across his left eye stark in the moonlight. Scarlett stood tall, her gaze held no submission, only a blaze despite the chains of her status that stirred something primal in him. The door clicked shut behind him, sealing them in a moment wher

“Because of your job. It’s dangerous, I get it.” He steps toward me, closing the gap he seemed so interested in maintaining. I sit perfectly still, frightened I’m going to frighten him away accidentally. “The only person I have any desire to be with is you. And I can’t have that,” he murmurs. The pure intensity of the truth takes me aback. He looks tempted to grab me and take me away from this life, so we can be together elsewhere, where neither of us have any obligations. I even feel tempted to take that offer.

"We can't seem to meet his freaking expectations." We had gone through our work meticulously, double-checking every detail, and it was flawless. Everything was fine, but it still wasn't enough to satisfy Isaac. "If he weren't so handsome, I would have dropped this project already," Danna continued with a hint of playfulness in her voice. I couldn't help but burst into laughter. Danna always had an eye for good-looking men. Even in the short time we've spent together, it was easy to see her preferences because she openly talked about them. Handsome and visually appealing. Has a muscular physique. Intelligent. Rich.

“But I hear it in your voice. That little edge. Talk to me. Is it the job? Is it Andres? Or is it everything piling up?” I let out a slow breath. “It’s… complicated. Andres told me good work today. We had this moment after the meeting. Just looking at each other. Nothing happened, but it felt like something. I don’t know. Maybe I’m overthinking it.” “You’re allowed to overthink it.
