#1 in the Kingdom series
Sneak peak -
Xavier growled possessively, walking towards me like the predator that he truly was. Staring into the endless pools of his eyes, I saw as raw, primitive need took over every ounce of him and all it did was turn...
Finally, chapter ten. It's been a great ride so far and I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did!
Happy reading lovely humans.

I was jogging on the beach as the moon shone down on the sand. It truly made the water look ethereal. I stopped to catch my breath, and what I saw made my heart clench in agony.
A couple was seated a few feat away from where I stood. Seeing them cuddle and laugh at each others jokes was painful to watch.
Never in my life had I imagined that I would be this jealous of something I didn't have. It was really starting to get to me and I knew, if I didn't do something about it soon, then I would lose my shit and lash out.
When we first came back from Venice, I didn't leave my room for a day and blamed it on jet lag. Nobody was suspicious of anything. In fact, I'm pretty sure, my dad was more than glad that both his daughters had come back instead of finding their mates.
Jokes on him, because I did come across mine.
After that, I had tried everything to keep myself busy, doing art classes, shopping sprees with Zeke, dancing as usual, but lately my nerves were getting to me.
I couldn't place a finger on what exactly had me on edge but I decided to let it slide.
To keep myself sane, I had been doing extra training and had gained a little more muscle. Not that I minded it, in fact my legs looked so nice and toned, I wore nothing but shorts and skirts to show them off.
I decided it was time to go home, I was pretty sweaty and needed a cold shower. I even had plans with Zeke for the night and needed to get ready on time.
When I reached home, dad was on the phone. It looked like there was some serious conversation going on so I sat down on the couch, waiting for my dad to finish talking on the phone.
Rose was out with mom, so it was dad and I.
"What was that?" I asked, my curiosity getting the best of me.
He sighed, "Some unreported wolves our roaming about in our territory. Be careful tonight and keep your phone in your hand throughout."
I nodded before going up to get dressed.
I let my jet black hair down. They were darker than the night and in their natural wavy length, they looked good.
I was wearing a pair of denim high-waisted shorts and a black cut out top that did wonders for my boobs. It had been a while since I had dressed up and I was feeling good.
