•BOOK TWO of the Faerie Tale Series• "Wait, you want to go out?" Aure called after Meiri, stopping her as she went to skip to her room. "Well...yeah?" Meiri nodded, blank eyes wide. Clearly she would have to spell it out for her friend, "You set me up with some insane sidhe claiming to be fae royalty, what's more, but of some made up court, and you want to go to IHOP?" Aure pressed. "I mean, when you put it like that, it sounds terrible, but have you seen the guy all morning?" Meiri arched an eyebrow. "The garden isn't so big that it would be that hard to find a giant purple dude with horns camping out in the rosebushes." "Well, no, but if he is who he says he is then he could have powers we can't even fathom, like he could be in this very room with us right now, and how would we know? I can't even cast, Ree!" Out of the pair of them, Meiri had the natural talent, however her spells had a tendency to go haywire when she was under stress. Yet, performance anxiety seemed like such a minor conundrum in comparison to Aure, who couldn't be relied upon to even empower the simplest of protection incantations. The irony; two witches, one the granddaughter of the Green Crone and the other the coven's favorite prodigy, completely at the mercy of an errant sidhe. Aure knew online dating wasn't for her. Truly, what girl, what witch (even a washed up one like Aure), could have expected their first ever date, let alone their first ever Tinder date, to propose within minutes of meeting? Truly, what girl would even reply "yes" to such a question? Not even Disney would write that faerie tale.

Book 4 of The Alpha Series! Cannot be read as a standalone book! Highest rank: #1 in Werewolf genre on 06/11/2019! Amelia Reid and Ivan Romanov were once childhood friends that would see each other every summer. But that all changes when Ivan stops visiting. A few years later, they meet again. But this time, they don't see each other as friends. Join Amelia's journey as she tries to peel back the many layers of Ivan Romanov while finding her place in a completely different world. *** "They show what you've been through, and I think that's beautiful." I whisper back, running my fingers through his hair. "Hell, you're ten times stronger than I could ever be." In an instant, he turns around to lay on his back with me straddling his waist. I blush at the position, his hand caressing my heated cheek adoringly. His emerald gems hold an array of emotions, flickering across too quickly for me to catch and decipher. So, I choose to admire him instead. I meant what I said. Ivan is so breathtakingly handsome that it hurts sometimes. His midnight black hair is always tousled sexily, eyes bright and alert, there's two freckles by his right brow and one by his chin. His lips are full and most of the time they're either in a frown or a straight line, but I manage to catch several small smiles throughout the day. He's quite muscular but whenever he holds me I feel safe and protected, as if I'm in a soft cocoon. "You don't need to be strong." His low murmur snaps me out of my trance. "You have me, I'll always protect you." "You protect me from the world and I'll protect you from yourself, deal?" I smile softly when he laughs, nodding in agreement.

He's popular. I have one friend. He's outgoing. I'm quiet. He has a girlfriend. I'm alone. I'm shy and he's purely arrogant. But they say like forces repel and opposites attract. And we're complete opposites. ════════ "Hello, my name is Juliette Hunter and I think you're an asshole" I said to him, turning my body away so I could, once again, try and grab the book I so desperately needed. "Your turn" I added, after a moment of silence, realising that he was too stunned to speak. His recovery was lightning fast however, as he replied with "Hi Juliette, my name is Levi Knight" He paused, allowing his eyes to roam my body, slowly taking me in from head to toe. I looked him in the eyes, defiant in not allowing him to get to me, as my cheeks began to burn. "And I think you could qualify as one of the most beautiful girls I have ever laid eyes on" he continued smoothly. I couldn't think of a smart remark in response to what he had said so I mumbled a "fuck off" before returning to the bookshelf, I was sure my face turned crimson. "Just out of curiosity," Levi continued, now leaning against the bookshelf. I wasn't going to warn him about the fact that it was slowly tipping over. "You're single right?" I wasn't going to tell him that his assumption offended me either. Instead I replied with "Just out of curiosity" I said in a mocking tone "You're single now too, aren't you?" "You're a feisty one, aren't you?" "You're not gonna leave me alone, are you?" I muttered, attempting once more, to grab the book I so badly needed for English. "You're really hot, you know?" "You're really annoying, you know?"

While she rambles I stare down at her. She can't be taller than 5 foot, a tiny petite thing. I feel like I want to protect her. Her eyes are a deep blue filled with innocence. I could get lost staring into her eyes. Her heart shines in her eyes, a good and pure heart. What am I thinking? I can't be this way. A girl like her is too good for me. I'm the devil she's a saint. "Sir, your coffee is ready." She hands me a cup. "Please don't call me sir. It makes me feel so old." I joke, and she laughs. "I'm Boone West, and what's your name?" I heard her call herself Darcy, but for some reason I need her last name. "I'm Darcy Scott. Pleased to meet you." She holds out her hand for me to shake. Shaking her hand it clicks for me. I know why she looks familiar. Her brother is my partner at work, Chase Scott. I can see the family resemblance. I'm not telling her I work with her brother. It's for her protection. It's too dangerous.
