Without another word, Maren turned and walked out of the room, the heavy wooden door clicking shut behind her.

I let out a long, frustrated sigh, the sound loud in the sudden emptiness of the chamber.

She kept saying things like that. Ever since the day I woke up in this fortress three weeks ago, Maren had been feeding me these cryptic, mystical assurances about my hidden strength.

How funny, I thought bitterly, walking back over to the mirror.

She tells me I am strong, yet I am still bou

    "Maren, please. Look at me. Look at my son. If I stay, Riven is going to hand me back to Kaelen. He said it himself in the hall today. His political interests are bigger than my life. Please, Maren. Come on. Do this for me. I’m begging you.”I crawled forward, grabbing the hem of Maren's grey nightgown."All you have to do is hand me my baby," I pleaded, my voice breaking into a pathetic, desperate whine. "Just hand him to me and turn your back. Go to sleep. Pretend I hit you over the head. Pretend you saw absolutely nothing. I will take the blame. I will take all the risk. Just please... do this for me as a mother. Do it for the girl you used to be."Maren looked down at me weeping on her floor. She looked at the tiny, sleeping infant in her arms. The silence stretched for an eternity. The only sound was the crackle of the firewood."Get up," Maren finally whispered.I scrambled to my feet, my chest heaving with desperate hope.Maren didn't hand me the baby yet. Instead, she walked b

  • My Ex Sold Me To The Devil   Chapter 32: Fidelity

    Before I could even form the words to demand my son, Maren yanked me inside so fast the door slammed shut behind us. The warmth of the small room hit me hard after the cold night air, but it did nothing to slow my racing heart. She still had Mael in her arms, rocking him gently, but her eyes were sharp on me now, scanning the bag on my shoulder, the cloak, the way I was breathing too fast.“What’s wrong with you?” she hissed, keeping her voice low so she wouldn’t wake the baby. “Are you out of your mind? Are you asking for a death sentence?”"Give him to me," I demanded, my voice shaking as I reached for Mael.Maren stepped back, holding the bundled infant out of my reach. Her grey eyes were wide, scanning my heavy cloak and the packed leather rucksack slipping off my shoulder."Don’t you get it?? You cannot run from the Valrok Empire," Maren said, her tone dead serious. "No one escapes this fortress without the King's seal. The Vanguard doesn't just let people wander into the snow. T

  • My Ex Sold Me To The Devil   Chapter 31: Boss Lady

    The voice cracked through the dark like a whip. A guard stepped out from the side corridor, spear already lowered, blocking the way completely. The tip glinted in the torchlight.“Identify yourself or get diced in half right now!”I had the veil pulled low over my face. It made it hard to see clearly in the dim light, and apparently it made it hard for him to recognize me too. Good. I straightened up, letting the bag hang at my side like it was nothing."Kill the Lycan King's mate?" I asked, my voice dropping into an eerily calm, melodic tone. "Kill Riven's wife in the middle of his own fortress? Oh, man. You seem to have a rather creative death wish upon yourself. And upon your entire bloodline." The guard’s eyes went wide. His spear wavered. He took a half-step back, then another, the weapon drooping."My... my Queen," the guard stammered, his voice cracking with absolute panic. He bowed his head so low his chin practically touched his chest. He was physically shaking. "Please... p

  • My Ex Sold Me To The Devil   Chapter 30: Skate On Thin Ice

    I zipped up the last bit of the small bag as quietly as I could. My hands were steady even though my heart was hammering against my ribs. I didn’t have much anyway. The Northern Wastes had taught me that a long time ago. You learned to move light or you didn’t move at all. A couple of changes of clothes, a small knife, some dried meat I’d stolen from the kitchens earlier. That was it. Enough to get me and Mael out of here and into the trees.I slowly let go of the zipper.I eased the bag off the vanity, careful not to let the brass buckles clink against the stone.I tiptoed toward the door, every step careful, testing the floorboards with the ball of my foot before I put weight down. The fire had burned low, casting long shadows across the room. Riven was still on the bed behind me, breathing deep and even. I was done. Nothing was stopping me this time. Not the High Council, not Kaelen, and definitely not the arrogant warlord sleeping twenty feet away. Not the memory of his hands or h

  • My Ex Sold Me To The Devil   Chapter 29: On The Edge

    Tears of sheer, human humiliation leaked from the corners of my eyes, rolling down my temples into my hair. I was trapped. I was listening to my own mouth spout the most filthy, submissive, degrading pleas, begging a man who had just sold me out to a council of warlords.Riven’s golden eyes flared with absolute, victorious triumph.He smiled. A dark, devastating grin that showed the sharp points of his fangs."Good girl," he growled.He didn't make me wait another second. Riven crashed his mouth down onto mine, kissing me with a passionate, bruising violence that stole the very oxygen from my lungs. His tongue invaded my mouth, tasting of salt and dominance, sweeping over my teeth and tangling with my own in a ruthless, consuming rhythm.At the exact same time, his hand moved between our bodies. He found my slick, swollen cunt and slipped a thick finger right past my entrance.I whimpered uncontrollably into his mouth, the sound vibrating between our connected lips. He began to circle

  • My Ex Sold Me To The Devil   Chapter 28: “Beg Like A Slut!”

    My chest heaved, my breath coming in jagged, shallow gasps that tore at my throat. I was sitting there, completely exposed on his massive mattress, drowning in my own wetness. My thighs were trembling, my core throbbing with a hollow, agonizing ache that demanded to be filled. I was so incredibly, shamefully horny it felt like a fever burning under my skin. I was ready to be fucked. I was practically vibrating with the need for it.But Riven had spoken.‘You're going to have to beg harder than that.’I gritted my teeth, my jaw locking so tight the muscle fluttered. No. I had sworn to myself. I had made a silent, blood-bound promise the day Kaelen threw me into that freezing mud. I thought I had learned my lesson. I thought I had built a fortress around my pride, vowing that no man would ever control me again. No man would ever dictate my worth, tell me what to do, or reduce me to a weeping, pleading mess on a mattress.Not Kaelen. And definitely not the Lycan King.

    KaelenThe jagged tracks of the carriage wheels were permanently gouged into the mud.I stood at the edge of the pack square, staring down at the deep ruts left behind by those demonic horses. The freezing wind bit at my face, but I couldn't feel it. I couldn't feel my fingers. All I could feel was

    ‘Mine.’The single word slammed into my chest like a physical blow.When Kaelen rejected me, just moments ago, the severing of our bond felt like a rusted blade dragging through my soul, leaving me hollowed out and dying. Typical werewolf reprisal to a severed bond. But this? This was a supernova.

    My knees gave out on the second step.The guards didn't care. They didn't stop dragging me.My bare feet slapped against the freezing stone of the grand staircase, my toes leaving small, pathetic smears of blood where I dragged. The rough fabric of the hospital gown rode up my thighs, exposing the

I was finally giving an heir to my mate. I was finally going to be a true Luna for the Alpha. Kaelen was
