Chapter
Ch19. Mortus
Duke Mortus *Three days prior.* "Where is he?" I tapped my black fingernail against the edge of my wooden chair. The padding had almost worn down to the wood. Two female servants stared at me with their beady red eyes wearing the sluttiest maid uniforms I had ever seen. I turned my nose up at them both as they kneeled before me in my study. The books were worn, smelling of old leather and the mothballs that sat behind the bookshelves. Documents ranging from vampire history back thousands of years…-

Part 1 – Chapter 25
Afterward, I’m an emotional mess. I lie facedown on the sofa with my ass in the air, sobbing into the cushions, trembling all over, sweaty and spent. Aidan is bent over me, breathing raggedly. His hot forehead rests between my shoulder blades. “Oh, baby,” he whispers. “Don’t cry. It’s okay, sweetheart. It’s okay.” He presses the gentlest of kisses to my spine and slowly withdraws from my body. Then he drags the afghan off the back of the sofa and wraps me in it. He sits, pulls me…-

Part 1 – Chapter 12
I wake in dim gray morning light in Aidan’s arms. My head rests on his chest. His heart thumps a slow, steady beat beneath my ear. He’s got both his big heavy arms wrapped around my body, holding me tight, even in sleep. I take a moment to orient myself to this new version of reality where I’m waking up on a mattress on the floor with a man who lives over a bar and has more tattoos on his chest alone than everyone else I know has combined, and decide almost instantly that I like it. Him, I…-

Part 2 – Chapter 37
PURGATORIO Even in the grave, all is not lost. ~ Edgar Allan Poe When I told Kayla that ghosts are simply souls with a story to tell, it was the truth. But the thing about ghosts is that they’re unreliable narrators. Especially when they’re telling a story to themselves. Figuring out that you’re dead is complicated business. A shout comes from behind me. I turn to find Sandy running down the hall toward us at top speed, her eyes wide and her face white. Clinging to my leg, Bennett…-

Odessa The mattress on the floor was softer than my bed, where I lived with Dad. The fluffy blankets covered my entire body, and at one point in the night, I burrowed deeper into the duvet. The cold air rushed around my head when I felt the blankets thrown off unceremoniously. Fluttering my eyes open, I was greeted with Creed with his brows high and breath ragged. Did he just run a mile? I squealed, pulling the blankets back down. I was still naked under here and didn't need to flash him so early in…-

Ch20. Alpha Adam
Creed Odessa's lips were so soft. Everything about her was delicate. I didn't want to hurt her, not my Fawn. My beast couldn't stomach that. I kept my hands from gripping her too harshly, but her movements, the way her hands tickled my neck, weaved into my hair, had me wanting more. So much more. Odessa granted me the ultimate gift, by kissing her like mates do. Does this mean she wanted more, too? My hands traced up her back. We were back at the cave, laying in each other's arms. Every moment I…-

Ch1. Running
Odessa "Wait!" The gurgling voice called for me. A claw ripped the upper part of my ankle; I winced at the sharp sting but kept going. Flinging the weighty door open to the unobstructed air, I bolted to the tree line, which wasn't far. This area was usually secure, streaming with guards, but many were missing. I didn't question it; this was my only chance. His gurgles became more transparent; he was healing far too quickly. My hope for escape was diminishing, but I trudged on because facing the…-

Part 1 – Chapter 26
Sunday morning dawns brilliant blue. The rainclouds have been chased away by the sun, and for the first time in weeks, it’s gorgeous out. Aidan makes us breakfast—scrambled eggs, of course, but also toast and bacon—then we shower together. He hums as he washes my body, grins as he towels me dry afterward, whistles as we dress. Aidan in a good mood is intoxicating. With his face lit up, he’s even more handsome than usual. Because the weather’s nice, he suggests we make the trip to the…-

Part 1 – Chapter 13
In stark contrast to his snarling savagery as he took me, Aidan is silent and gentle as he washes my body under the warm spray in the shower. I’m shaky and shell-shocked, uncertain what I’d say even if I could speak, so I’m grateful he’s not asking me to. He turns me this way and that, soaping and rinsing my skin, then squirts a dollop of shampoo into his palm and washes my hair. I stand with my eyes closed and wonder what happens next. I’ve never had a one-night stand, so I don’t know…-
