I sat at the edge of my bed, rethinking my decision for the dinner King Leonidas had planned. It felt too intimate and something about the implication made me uneasy. I do not like him. 'Keep telling yourself that' the voice in my head mocked. "You look gloomy" Arin noted from the corner of the room she'd been standing in for over twenty minutes now. "I'm unsure" I admitted truthfully. Honestly, I had no idea why I always felt comfortable when it came to Arin. With my history, I shouldn't be. But when it came to her, I found myself baring my heart. "It's not every day that the king plans a special dinner. It's all everybody has been talking about" I huffed, uninterested in the gossip and what they thought of the gesture. "I don't know if it's the right thing" "Does it feel wrong?" "No" I answered immediately. It didn't feel wrong when I stared at the velvet forest green dress. "But something tells me that I shouldn't be going" Arin hummed but said nothing. "You're s

I bolted out of the door without a thought in the world. I heard his name calling me from a distance but I didn't stop. My heart pounded heavily in my chest as I ran. No direction in mind. My legs splashed the muddy earth as I pushed myself harder until I was lost in the trees."Rebeccah" his impatient voice drew closer as I continued running through the trees and then I slammed into a tree I'd not noticed in my panic. I fell backwards, my body sinking into the mud."Rebeccah" he stood above me, face shining with anger. He leaned down and helped me to my feet despite the protest."Why the fuck did you run out" he asked as he eyed my frame."You're soaked to the bones. Let's get you back to the castle to warm up and...." I pulled my hand out of his grip and he frowned at me."What's wrong Rebeccah?" He pressed, voice growing higher with each word.I couldn't speak. I just wanted to keep running until there was enough distance between us but I knew that wouldn't be possible right now.

KING LEONIDAS POV My body felt stiff. Like it had been bound by magic. My chest rumbled with a growl at my stiff limbs. I shut my eyes and tried again and I sighed in relief when it moved. I immediately sensed the presence beside me. Not just anyone’s. But Rebeccah. Her sweet scent wafted into my nose and my body instantly came alive. I buried my fingers in her hair and stroked lazily. She jerked upright in surprise, staring at me like she had seen a ghost. “King Leonidas” she was still in awe when she ran her fingers lightly over my arm. The sensation they shot through me was fierce, intense but I focused on the annoyance I felt at the use of my title. I’d fucked up once. After Fenrir’s death, I’d spoken so coldly. It’s going to be extremely difficult to convince her to drop the title again. “My lord? I’m going to get Zeus now” she said in panic and rushed out before I could get a word in. The loud bang of the door jerked me upright. I stretched my sore muscles and a

Unexplainable rage filled me and I slammed my palm against his shoulder pushing him off me."That's why I can't fucking stay around you. All you know is fucking violence. Control and heaven help whoever tries to live outside your control" I spat at him and his eyes narrowed. "I was nice to you""Yeah. For two fucking minutes and then you're right back to the mons...." I bit my tongue sharply and tasted blood but I did not finish that sentence."Go on. Finish it" he ordered calmly and I shook my head."Just let me go, King Leonidas""Never. You're mine" he snarled with primal possessiveness."I'm not yours. And I'm not special. You'll meet someone else and...""Don't fucking finish that sentence" he growled at me."You're coming back with me. I'll give you a moment and then we're heading back" he turned away from me and I remained rooted to the spot."No" I mumbled and he didn't turn back."I'm not in the mood for this shit Rebeccah. We're heading back together. There's no other optio

"What?""Your mother. What I did was terrible and I'd like to apologize directly to her. Do whatever she wants. That could be a step forward in winning you over" his eyes were determined, certain that it was the best decision, and my heart pounded like a heavy drum. "T-There's no need to" I said quickly."Why not? It's very important to you. I want us to do this properly""We're not doing anything" I snapped but regretted it right after. "I don't think there's any need to. She won't want to see you and...""Why do I feel like you don't want me to meet your mother" "That's ridiculous" I spluttered and disappeared into the closet but he followed closely behind me."Is it? If it's not a problem then you should allow me to see her"I pinched my lips tightly. I knew he was waiting for my reaction just to confirm his theory that I didn't want him meeting Paula.The real truth was I didn't want him going to the shadow hills pack. I didn't want him meeting the people from my past. Opening
