#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...
Yes, I know I know. I'm way behind on the schedule and I sincerely apologize for it but can you blame me for getting carried away with the new year? I mean, it is a new decade- the stars have something big planned for all of us.
Ladies and Gentlemen with that in mind, here goes the next chapter.

Chapter XVIII
It wasn't until later that night that I felt as if someone had opened my bedroom door and walked in. I was still half asleep and it felt as if it were a dream. For some reason though, I pushed the slits of my eyes open, trying to see who it was or if I was just imagining the whole thing.
There was definitely someone standing next to the couch.
Moving ever so slightly, I wrapped my fingers around the glass lamp on the side table.
Aiming the lamp at the strangers head, I threw it with all my strength.
The lamp smashed against the wall at the same time I switched the light on.
Xavier was standing inches away from where I had thrown the lamp and his eyes were wide open, like he was almost scarred of what had just happened.
I breathed a sign of relief upon seeing that it was only Xavier.
"What were you thinking?" I groaned as I rubbed my eyes groggily.
Xavier looked astonished at my question, "What was I thinking? What were you thinking? You almost threw that lamp at my head."
He accused as he pointed his fingers towards the tiny shards of what was left of the lamp.
"Oh, so it's my fault that I thought some stranger had sneaked into my room!" I exclaimed, taking a threatening step towards him.
"And it's my fault that you almost split my skull in half?" He said as he took a step towards me, not backing down from the challenge.
"You're the one who sneaked into the room! Without my permission, might I add." I said as I stepped even closer to him.
"So now, I'm not even allowed to see my own mate?" He asked, closing the distance between us.
I took in a small breath before whispering, "Not without her permission, no."
"Hmm..." He placed his hand on my chin, "I think I like the sound of that."
His touch on my face alone left my skin ablaze. I wonder what it'd feel like if we did other things.
