Lahat ng Kabanata ng Our Submissive Sin: Kabanata 31 - Kabanata 40

“You need to stop crushing my chest, Kade,” I choked out, a low, thick growl rumbling deep within my throat as I wrapped my arms completely around his massive shoulders. My fingers dug into the heavy tactical leather covering his spine, pulling him closer into my space until our ribs compressed. The raw, primal heat of his dominant wolf rolled off his skin in waves, instantly invading my senses and overriding the lingering fear that had frozen my muscles only moments ago. For half a winter cycle, my hands had been completely empty of his touch, forced to survive on nothing but distant memories while he ran silent border patrols across the frozen expanses of Abakon Yellow. Unlike Malakai and Zuberi, who had been making regular, covert supply runs back to the far-off Moonreach Territory to gather our shadow resources, Kade had planted his paws firmly in this cursed soil from the very first night we arrived. He had isolated his beast here, building his trade holdings and tracking every f

My brain was completely groggy, but my beast knew there was no time for weakness. I had given my solemn word to Katy that I would cross the border into her clearing before the first pack meeting, and when it came to securing territory deals, my wolf never broke a promise.I vaulted out of the furs, stretching my arms high toward the stone ceiling beams and twisting my torso from side to side to force the blood back into my limbs. The shadow clocks showed it was barely five-fifteen in the morning, and the mountain sky was still a deep, bruised charcoal, but my body needed a hard, freezing run through the pines before I faced the council spies.I stepped into light running gear—a plain white tunic over my bare skin, thick blue tracking shorts, and soft white running skins that gripped my feet tightly. I pulled my long dark hair back into a tight warrior's knot, shoving my communication stone, a few silver tokens, and a small sweat towel into my leather jogging pouch. The air outside was

The night after the four horsemen cornered me in the dark and left my body bleeding in the brush, she was the only outsider who forced her way into the Silvermoon Healing Lodge. She slipped a small wooden tablet under my head furs for me to study. My eyes were swollen completely shut from the heavy iron rings the boys used to crack my skull, so my mother, Lieli, sat by my cot and read the words aloud for days. Shifting my focus to the brave warriors in the text was the only thing that kept my young wolf from sliding into absolute self-pity and despair.When the pack elders held their secret council fire with Old Man Eugene and decided our bloodline had to flee Abakon Yellow for our own survival, Mother Blackmaw had tracked my mother down to the creek line."Lieli... you will send a bird back to my den, right? Or let a scout pass a message to my clearing?" she had begged."I will, Laura," my mother had whispered back. But it was a complete lie to protect the trail. Our circle had taken

“Malakai is running late with his boards too,” I told him, my legs shaking slightly as I gingerly slid off the desk and walked toward the small stone washbasin. “I passed his trading post before riding here.”“No wonder the female is lurking around my counters,” Kade muttered, grabbing his communication stone and furiously striking a rune before throwing the door open. “Wait for me in the dark, alright? I’ll just herd her over to Malakai's gates.”I cleaned the sweat and seed from my thighs, fixed my tracking gear, patted my damp hair back into the warrior knot, and smoothed down my deer-skin tunic.When I stepped back into the main den, Kade was already leaning against the desk, calmly draining the horn of spiced tea I had brought him. He caught my eye and let out a wicked, sinful grin.The heat in his eyes made my entrance instantly twitch with fresh moisture. I wanted his beast to pin my chest against the wall and take me from behind right then and there. Gods, how I wished our cir

Pete’s jaw dropped and he began nodding his head like mad, but a savage, lethal glare from Talia’s eyes froze his muscles instantly. Corwin bit his bottom lip and violently tore his gaze away toward the lumber wall, looking completely stunned, as if my words had entirely shattered whatever dark plans they had mapped out for my building. Perfect.“Actually, Johnson, my design skills can easily handle both commercial projects at the exact same time,” Talia hurriedly explained, her voice rising with sudden desperation. “Plus, Malakai hasn't even called my den to specify—”“Hold your pack applause, everyone. The true star of the valley has finally arrived,” Zuberi announced loudly, his booming voice completely shattering whatever lie Talia was trying to spin. Yesterday, the Mooncode Seer had worn nothing but dark, intimidating black leathers, but today, his massive frame was completely clad in a bright pink wool tunic, save for his clean white running skins. “Talia! Your wolf explicitly s
