His teeth pressed together, his robes swaying with his shifting weight. A hand at his side clenched and unclenched sporadically before fixing the hair at his brow. He swallowed his pride, his throat moving at the action, and bowed lowly at the waist.
"Lady Lasmure of Nightsoar, we implore you as a friend and ally to help Us in Our fight against Rosacrae."
"We regret that we cannot accept your request, for Nightsoar has been at peace for three generations, and we would like for another three if at all possible. We apologize that your journey here has been for nought. I wish you victory in the war."

Burntout

The marble floors were now stained with his blood and I gazed as it seeped through his white shirt. ❝Your reign is over. ❞ ________________ Andromeda Holloway is pulled into a realm of lies and memories when she finds out she's one of them.

One Kiss Less
Mia Chrismen doesn't believe in fate, fairy tales, or the so-called mate bond that ties werewolves to their soulmates. She believes in science, steel, and her surgical scalpel - the only things that haven't failed her. But when a wounded stranger collapses at her feet - all blood, fury, and secrets - her world doesn't just change. It shatters. Cain Arker is the crown prince of the werewolves. Alpha by birth, cursed by destiny, and haunted by the throne he must claim. To do it, he needs the heir of the moon-blessed bloodline. What he didn't expect? Her. The woman who doesn't feel their bond. The woman who challenges him, hates him, tempts him - and still refuses to be his . A slow-burn, soul-bonded, enemies-to-lovers saga where loyalty cuts deeper than knives, love is war, and fate isn't a blessing - it's a weapon. --- "Now talk" he murmured, voice rough, every syllable carrying a warning "Who was he ?" She gave him that infuriating little smirk , " you sure you want the details? You might get jealous." His jaw flexed , " I have been patient the whole night love " he said , low and lethal , " for your own good.... don't test me now " He shifted , instantly bringing her on his lap . His jacket - the only thing shielding her from his gaze , shifted with the movement, falling off the shoulder. She gasped. " Listen carefully MATE - " his voice dropped further, a sinful whisper in her ear " - try running from me once more and I will make sure you can't even walk for weeks." The words came off less like a threat and more like a promise. She scoffed even though her pulse was wild , " Empty threats Arker ?" He let out a slow laugh, " You love challenging me don't you ? " . . "C-Cain " she breathed but he only kissed her harder . As she let out a sharp sound again , he smiled , " But you should know I never back down from a challenge sweetheart ."
