Ethan's hand remained wrapped tightly around her waist. He threaded his other hand through her hair, completely unraveling her neat bun as his fingers locked into the dark blonde strands, tilting her head back to fully expose the delicate expanse of her neck.Rose closed her eyes the moment his head descended. When his lips pressed against her marking spot, a sudden firework of electric sparks erupted against her skin. He nipped at the sensitive flesh before his tongue slicked over the spot, igniting a fierce, burning desire deep within her. Rose had to bite down hard on her lower lip to stifle the desperate moan threatening to escape her throat.She was utterly lost in his seduction when a sudden, stinging pain pierced through the fog. Ethan's sharp canines sank deep into her skin, permanently marking her as his.Instantly, Rose felt their bond snap into place, growing exponentially stronger as their very souls reached out and fused together. She let out a sharp hiss when his fangs fi
Because Killian was so completely focused on his mate, Rose cleared her throat loudly to steal some attention back from her brother.“Someone has forgotten that it's my special day,” she complained, playfully pouting her lips at him. “I need to be admired too, you know.”Killian laughed heartily, the spell breaking as he looked down at her. “Look at you. My baby sister has grown into a beautiful woman. I am so proud of you, Rose.” He stepped forward, wrapping her in a warm, protective brotherly hug.When he pulled back, Rose hooked her other arm through Killian's. With her two handsome men on either side of her, they began walking her down the aisle toward her groom.Rose's heart pounded nervously against her ribs as she took slow, measured steps along the velvety red carpet. She kept her head bowed slightly, too shy to look up. She could already feel the intense heat of Ethan’s gaze burning into her from the moment she had stepped into the hall. Rose knew that if she dared to look up
Today, Rose was on cloud nine. It was finally her wedding day—a day she had dreamed of ever since she first learned that her secret love and childhood crush, Ethan, was her true fated mate.Though they had dated steadily after discovering the bond, Ethan had exercised incredible self-control. He had never pushed her beyond passionate kisses and gentle caresses, fiercely determined to wait until their wedding night to officially mark and mate with her. Even when the pull of the bond made it nearly impossible to keep their hands off each other, Ethan had honorably kept his promise.Now, the wait was over. Today was their wedding, and Rose felt like the happiest bride to ever live.She wore a customized, designer white wedding gown made of the finest silk and delicate netting. Brilliant diamonds were embedded along the elegant neckline, and intricate silver threadwork shimmered across the entire dress. Killian had gone above and beyond for his sister, flying the designer in directly from
There was a firm knock on the door. Killian opened it to find Ethan standing on the threshold, a food tray held carefully in his hands. The moment Ethan saw the Alpha King already inside Rose’s room, a sudden flash of worry crept across his expression.“Is she okay?” he asked urgently.Without waiting for a response, Ethan walked straight past Killian, practically brushing him aside in his haste to reach his mate. When he stepped inside and saw Rose sitting safely on the bed, a deep breath rushed out of him—a release of air that made it clear he had been holding it in absolute panic.“I am sorry, princess,” Ethan said softly, crossing the room to set the tray on the mattress beside her. “I was busy this morning with the interrogation of those filthy Blue Wolves and couldn't come to check on you sooner. But when I returned to the pack house and found out you hadn't eaten anything yet, I brought this up myself. You have to finish it all.”He offered her a warm, sweet smile, but Rose onl
Killian gently guided Rose back to her chambers. Closing the door to shield her from the rest of the pack house, he looked down at her pale face and ordered softly, “Now, rest for a while, and then I will take you back to the pack doctor.”“There's no need,” Rose whispered, a single tear spilling over her lashes and dropping down her cheek.Killian sighed heavily, his expression softening as he stepped closer. “Stop crying for that bastard, Rose.”Rose’s lips trembled, but she nodded in bitter agreement. “You’re right. I thought... I thought he could change after seeing the destruction of his own kind with his own eyes. But no. He will never learn from his mistakes." She covered her face, her shoulders shaking. "But I feel so helpless, Killian. I can’t bear to watch everyone of my blood die just like that.”“Rose, look at me,” Killian coaxed gently, lifting her chin. “I am here.Your brother. You have Father, and you have Isabella. You are not alone.”“Arthur is the last piece of Mother
“Maybe. But you need to be more careful and gentle this time,” Isabella murmured, shyly biting her lower lip.“I promise that I will be more gentle and careful. Let me worship my stunningly gorgeous pregnant wife,” Killian replied softly.He pulled her firmly onto his lap, her legs draping over both sides of his hips as she straddled him. Shedding the heavy burdens of the day along with their clothes, Killian held her as if she were the only thing that mattered in the world. He made love to her the whole night through, their bond offering a quiet sanctuary from the darkness of the battlefield.The morning arrived, bringing with it a mixture of new challenges and fragile hope. Killian pulled himself away from the warmth of their bed to face the grim tasks ahead. His first duty was to speak to his father, James, about Grace’s death and Arthur’s current imprisonment.However, James was already heartbroken. The exact moment Grace had drawn her last breath, his wolf had felt the shattering
When Killian left the banquet hall to cool off, he was fuming. If he hadn’t stepped out for air, he might’ve done something he’d regret later. Without a second thought, he stripped off his clothes, shifted, and ran into the woods, letting his anger burn away with every pounding stride.He finally
Isabella had always been told that Maya had saved Killian’s life and that it was the reason he was so protective of her, why he cared for her, and even promised to marry her. But no one had ever told her the details—how or where Maya had supposedly saved him.Now, as Maya’s words echoed in the dark
Isabella glanced at Rose, who shot her a mischievous grin, her innocent eyes sparkling with a secret thrill. Rose gave a playful wink and a cheeky nod toward the front seat, making Isabella shake her head subtly. She knew she had no choice—she had to go and sit beside that infuriating, yet magneti
Killian drew a deep, shuddering breath, trying to subdue the sharp edge of his frustration. An alpha’s ego was as vast as Everest, and he was the Alpha king.The next moment, he leaned his forehead against hers, letting her touch soothe the heat simmering through him. His voice was low, rough, and
