After many years have passed since the Century War between humans and other species, times seem to be getting better.

View MoreMason wanted to take control if Rodin got carried away, but seeing her looking at them stopped him. He expected her to run at the sight of Rodin. Run like she did before, but she didn’t. Instead, Mason felt something he never thought he would from her. Wanting? He knew it could only be from Nova, but still, it felt…good. Like a weight lifting from his chest he didn’t know was there. “Rodin.” The name fell off her lips like a light caress through his fur, and she stood on shaky legs to move closer to him. Xenia’s eyes flashed between brown and blue until Nova took over. Rodin moved closer until her outreached hand touched his head. “I’ve waited so long, mate,” she said as she buried her face in his fur. The feeling of her touching them the way they wanted, without being forced or being pushed away, had some unchecked emotion filling them. Without hesitation, Rodin stepped back, allowing enough room for him to shift back into his human form. Not a moment later, Nova fell into his a
Every part of Xenia wanted to go back to him. Telling her this was how it should be, but the moment he said those words, with a voice that was no longer human, a fire lit under her feet. Rodin. She cursed herself when she moved toward the woods instead of the packhouse. She knew the doors wouldn’t keep a beast like Rodin away from her. This…this was Rodin’s playground. His fantasy, and she fell right into it. “They are coming for us,” Nova said without hiding her excitement. Those words echoed inside Xenia’s head and through her body, and she could feel Nova wanting to take over. Xenia was initially scared, thinking Nova would run right back to him, but that was not what Nova wanted. Nova wanted the chase just as much as Rodin. She pushed Xenia to sprint through the dark forest. The darkness was thick, but the Blue Moon shone brightly above, and there was a sense of calm humming from it. Xenia thought it must have been her imagination, but she could feel Nova answer it. Xenia st
Mason could barely catch his breath. When he felt Xenia was awake, he left his scouts in the woods without a second thought. She occupied his mind, and he couldn't think of anything other than getting to his mate. At that moment, she was in front of him, in his arms, and she felt so good. As the shock of her fighting slowly dissipated, Mason took in her appearance. She looked far better than he could have imagined. Her skin was flawless, her hair framed her face perfectly, and her eyes burned right down to his core. The moment he picked her up, the sparks from their bond spread through him like an unforgiving wildfire. He closed his eyes momentarily to take it in before noticing the same reaction from her. His admiration turned into desire as he felt Rodin begging to be released. Begging to claim her his way. Mason held Rodin back as he lifted Xenia from the ground. Even in pain, she was beautiful, and he was so transfixed he felt words come out of his mouth and didn't register th
Xenia took in labored breaths, trying to figure out what was wrong. Though she did well, Nova did just eat her body weight in food. Still, she was hungry in the sense that she needed something else. The heat tingled across her skin, arms, legs, and right between her thighs. She let out an involuntary moan. "I'm…hot," Xenia growled at no one in particular. "You can say that again, hon." "Frieda! This is not the time," Lacey reprimanded her. "You are acclimating faster than I expected," Nova said. "If I had known, I would have warned you earlier." "Warn me about what," Xenia asked out loud. The girls looked at her. "Are you talking to us," Lacey asked. "You have to get used to talking to me like this," Nova said. "Or people will start to think you are crazy." "I think it's too late for that," Xenia said, trying to make light of the situation. "Well, I have so much to tell you," Lacey said, cautiously walking around Xenia. "But I want to make sure you're not going to a
Nova could feel Xenia pushing through, which was good for her but not for the girl she was stalking towards. Nova could feel her claws elongating and another growl rumbling from her chest. She could hear the rapid beating of Jane's heart, which excited her. Xenia wanted Jane to be scared. Her primal side was itching to come out and make the kill. Before she got close, Jane held out the plate in her hands, and Nova stopped only for a moment to look at it. "I…I…made this for you," Jane squeaked. Nova grabbed the plate, completely taken off guard. Banoffee Pie. The memory of Xenia making this pie for them flashed in her mind. It was a rare occasion where Xenia was happy, if only for that moment. "I don't know what I did, but I'm sorry," Jane cried, falling to the floor. "Please forgive me, Luna." Xenia's anger pushed through enough for Nova to clutch the plate so tight it cracked in her hand. "You don't know what you did?" Nova said each word as if it hurt coming out of her mo
"Wake Up!" The loud demand rang inside Xenia's head and sent a jolt to her heart. She felt flustered, confused, and oddly aroused at the same time. How could his voice do this? Her eyes shot open as she quickly sat up in bed. It took a minute before she realized where she was. Everything felt distanced, like the opposite of an out-of-body experience. She was looking at everything through someone else's eyes. "What the hell is going on?" Then something else hit her. A familiar scent. She followed the scent to the pillows and inhaled the faint perfumes her mother usually wears before realizing what she was doing. Then she heard a voice. It sounded far away, but she could feel her lips moving. Everything confused her now. A hand touched her head, and she turned, seeing no one beside her. It was her hand, but it felt like a stranger. "WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON?!?!" "I am trying to tell you, but you must relax, human. Your emotions are too strong." Again, it was her voice, bu
Lacey panicked only a little before seeing it was Frieda, who didn't look so happy. Lacey took in a shaky breath, but Frieda placed a finger over her lips before she could speak. Frieda looked down at the basket, searching for something, and her eyes lit up when she found it. "What's taking so long?" the guard asked. His voice came out in short pants. "Oh, don't worry. I found exactly what you need." Frieda took the cast iron out of the basket and walked back around the corner. Lacey was stuck in her stupor for a moment before she started to freak out again. She heard the sound of the cast iron hitting flesh, and the guard's scream came immediately after. She's going to get us in trouble. Lacey thought before the guard's scream turned into a soft whimpering. What the hell? Against her better judgment, Lacey peeked around the corner and covered the gasp from her mouth with her hand. The guard was naked from the waist down in a missionary position with his ass in the air. Fr
Jane's hands shook as she carefully skimmed to the chocolate bar's top. She ignored the sweat and clumps of wet flour caked on her face. She wanted to imitate how Xenia made the swirly chocolates for the banoffee pie. So far, in the last ten minutes, she has gone through two bars of chocolate and made four perfect toppings. "I have no idea how you can do this with such ease, Xenia." After ten more minutes, Jane gave up and decided to go with what she had. She had been slaving all day in the kitchen and between her other duties to make this, and she prayed it worked. "If there's one way to get back in your good graces, it will be with this pie," Jane muttered as she placed the last chocolate curl on top of the pie. "Done. This should be perfect." Jane stepped back to admire her work. She planned to put it up for when Xenia woke up, but no one knew when. The fact that she growled earlier indicated it might be any day now. "Hopefully, it's soon," she muttered. "I would hate for thi
Lacey held the key out in front of her. "Celia found it underneath Xenia's pillow. She made a weird look and put it in her pocket when she thought no one was looking. I thought the whole thing was weird, so I stole it from her." Frieda looked aghast. "A key, Lacey? Really? Do you know how many doors this place has?" "I do," Lacey said defensively, putting the key back into her pocket, "but how many use actual keys? And besides, look at it." The jagged key had a carved-out seal on one end with a jewel in the middle. "Maybe it's a key to the dungeon's cells or something important. It looks all fancy." "Well, how are we gonna test it," Frieda asked. "Celia is the one that delivers the food down there. Come to think of it, I'm not sure I want to go down there. It's so…dark." "Just come on," Lacey said, pulling Frieda out of the room. "We should go now while everyone else is getting ready for tonight's bonfire. This is the last night of the Blue Moon." Not long after, they stood near
