"But you could have gotten hurt," I murmur softly, hanging my head and feeling my shoulders drop, the tension seeping from my body. "No. Stop," She cuts me off sternly but tenderly, "Don't talk like that, Reece. I'm okay, you're okay, we're okay," She speaks softly, reaching her hand up to gently brush her thumb over my cheek, just under the cut that's there. "We're okay," I repeat, taking a small step closer to her. She nods with a small smile, moving her hand down from my cheek and instead placing the palm of her hand on my chest, right over my heart. I know she can feel how fast my heart is beating. I just don't know why it's doing that. ~ Reece Carter is the bad boy of Northwood High. He smokes and he fights.

[COMPLETED] ✔ Book 5 of The Deliverance Series Conclusion of The Deliverance Series "I said, I'm fine," my tone alters slightly, and his grip loosens on the plate, Wyn taking a step back as he releases the plate and sits down. "Alpha Merle," Alpha Keir's tone is sharp, realizing how quiet the table is...even Princess Edith is staring at me in silence. Alpha Keir lifts his chin and states, "Don't give orders to anyone in my pack, especially my omega," he stares at me hard. I want to roll my eyes, understanding his protectiveness over a mere omega...after all, Ashling was one. I part my lips to speak, stating, "With all due respect, Alpha Keir, your omega is my mate and-" "Dot treated her mate with more respect in a single look than you can in silence," Alpha Keir snarls, his features altering. He narrows his eyes and continues, "and Dot is by far your superior in all aspects. Treat your mate with the respect he deserves. An equal. Besides..." he lowers himself back down into his chair, raising a glass to his lips, "...I can guarantee that Wyn could take you easily in a fight."

[COMPLETED]✔ Book 4 of The Deliverance Series Cormac smirks and replies, "Clever man...writing our worlds while hiding his daughters away." "My dad is my dad, you make absolutely no sense!" I'm quick to snap at him, frustrated by everything he's been claiming as the time he's spent here helping me with school alters his thoughts about me. Cormac chuckles while sighing, "No, nothing around you is what it seems, a clever way to keep you safe until you were ready to-" he cuts himself short as I can hear Edith banging on the door, crying for me. When his eyes glance back to capture my own, he tells me very carefully, "You've read it all...we weren't prepared for him and that's why your parents created all of this to keep you and your sister safe until...now." "I...I need to take my medication," when I go to move away, I feel the air shift around me, Cormac now standing before me. "No, you don't," he observes me with fascination, "there's nothing wrong with you." "But I see and do-" Cormac cuts me off when he gently chuckles, "There's much more you'll come to understand," he glances to the books and then nods, "be careful what you wish for..." "I just want this to all stop," I'm shaking my head profusely, not truly understanding everything he says. It doesn't make sense... ...it's words spun of a fairytale He's calm as I stare at him hard, asking, "What about Edith?" "She will be safe here, that I can assure you as your mother left nothing to chance," Cormac reassures me and at this very moment, everything around me seems to be flickering in and out of existence, especially when we both turn toward the books. "I'm scared," my voice is so weak and hardly above a whisper while Cormac picks up Code of Conduct. Cormac turns to me while holding the book in his hands. As he slowly extends it toward me, he arches a brow and asks, "Are you ready to tempt fate, little sparrow?" (Not Edited)
