His body molds into mine perfectly from behind as he grasps my waist with cold hands. "Didn't I tell you who you belonged to?" His husky, dark voice flows through my ears as his hands travel slowly to my hips, leaving a trail of heat along the way. "I belong to no one." My tone wavers unsteadily, and I curse him for having control over me. He chuckles, a lovely sound coming from deep within his chest. Suddenly, our chests are flush against each other with his hand buried in my hair. "Oh, but you do. And intend to show you that." He whispers possessively, his lips crushing mine. ~~ The second book is out now! The Queen of Darkness. Check it out!

The door opened quietly, Hades entered with all his glory, he looked at me with angry eyes. I gulped, "Before you say anything, I just want to tell you that I have my reasons for doing what I did." He crossed his arms over his chest, "And what are these reasons?" I took a deep breath, "I couldn't control myself, I- I got jealous." I mumbled. "Jealous?" He didn't sound convinced. I nodded, "Yes jealous, because you did that on purpose!" I pointed my finger at him, "I saw how you were flirting with that- that she-wolf! I have all rights to act that way, you cannot blame me, it was an instinct to claim you- well I didn't technically claim you, I only kissed you in front of her and your warriors," I shook my head, "All in all, you can't be angry for something that was bound to happen." I crossed my hands, feeling proud of myself, "You called for it." I muttered, holding back a grin. "I am not angry that you kissed me in front of my warriors," he spoke, "I'm embarrassed." My eyes widened, "Embarrassed?" "And disgusted." ______ Life as an omega isn't pretty, in fact, it is worst than being a rogue.

A creature that isn't really different from others, she wants what all of them longed for most of their lives. A mate.

She prays to the mood goddess everyday, every second she can, to find her mate as soon as possible. That prayer has been sent and answered. With one meeting, a deal has been made between the alpha and the unexpected visitor. When the two meet, eyes snapped in recognition. Her mate. This is it. A journey shall rise. ::Fast update::
