"My hair is long. I mean it's like it has grown almost seven inches overnight," Alexa frowned checking her hair in the mirror."I like it long. It looks wavier now," Lucian mused from the bed."Huh... you never said you didn't like a thing about me. Whatever I say you always like it," Alexa grumbled as she ambled towards him."Not true. I have told you I don't like it when you cry," Lucian argued and Alexa rolled her eyes pulling the laptop from him."My turn, you are at it for almost two hours now," Alexa said and looked at him in amusement when she noticed the pages which were open."How to braid long hair? Seriously?!!" She exclaimed looking at the laptop and him.Lucian shrugged, "I like it when girls braid their hair. You always seem to pull it into a ponytail," he replied."So you have learned how to do it for me?" Alexa asked in amusement. She liked this side of Lucian."Kind of, maybe if you'd let me try a few times, I

Lucian’s eyes darted towards Alexa’s plump lips as she licked the last of her ice cream. “The food is to die for Lucian you are amazing,” Alexa complimented rubbing her stomach. She helped him load the empty plates into the dishwasher and didn’t miss the way his body brushed against hers.She could feel his desire and she didn’t want him to hold back anymore. They are turning eighteen tomorrow, anyway. Alexa gasped softly when Lucian hugged her from behind running his hands over her thighs.“I don’t want to wait any longer Lucian. If you consider all the leap years we are eighteen already,” she whispered seductively as he placed a kiss on her shoulders. His beast rumbled sending delicious shivers across her body and she turned looking deep into his bright blue eyes.“Take me, Lucian. Make me yours forever…” she whispered, leaning towards him. A growl ripped through his chest as he captured

The guards did not sit and went to stand guard on each end of the couch, ready to strike if anyone dares attack Dimitri. Both stood tall at six feet with a broad frame which said they worked out a lot, one had a dark skin with piercing amber eyes, his short curly hair stood out different from his entire demeanor.Other guard had a long ugly scar which ran across from his right eye to the left cheek marring his tan skin. His pale green eyes held no emotion as he stared across the room to nothing. His unruly shoulder-length hair and crooked nose stroked an unknown fear inside Alexa.She did not miss the weapons strapped to their torso and the glint of the shiny metal did nothing to reduce her fear. Lucian rubbed her arm unconsciously, and she felt herself relaxing under his touch. Alexa turned her attention from the guards to stare at the elf who sat before her in admiration as Dimitri shifted in his seat.Dimitri looked like an older brother to Lucian. He had thi

“Dimitri…” his sister sighed in relief when she saw his face.“Did you find them?” She whispered and Dimitri believed his sister well knew of the girl Lucian was with.“You knew, didn’t you?” He questioned with a slight anger lacing his voice. They have spoken almost every day, and she did not even mention a word about this except for saying Lucian was protected by an unknown magic.“I am sorry, brother. I wasn’t sure. I had a doubt when I lost the bond with Lucian on his sixteenth birthday, and then I didn’t want Antonio to find out. You know how he is.” His sister sighed.“What is she? I witnessed and felt so much power radiating from her and she could read my mind clear as day,” Dimitri asked narrowing his eyes at his sister. He was sure that Giselle knew more about the girl. Mirunalini had the gift of vision and she could see anything through that cauldron she keeps i

The Steller’s extended their stay in Burlington for a few days. Though Victor was satisfied with Lucian’s decision, he knew his parents wouldn’t give up. If Lucian was the only heir to the throne, then they would come back for him, one way or another.Victor did not miss the tension that coated Alexa’s features. Though she let the others believe she was fine, he knew his daughter well to know her emotions. I must secure her future with Lucian.Amanda noticed the determined look on Victor’s face and the way he kept gazing at their daughter and Lucian told her they will have a talk sooner.Later that day, the family gathered in the living room after dinner. Though everyone spoke and behaved as if everything was normal, the heavy tension in the air could not be mistaken. Abram and Nate were engrossed in video games, oblivious to the tension.Lucian couldn’t shake the foreboding that clouded his mind thinking about
