"Lost for words, little star?"His lips brushed my earlobe, his breath scorching hot.The scene snapped back to my bed. My usual dream.His rough, large hand gripped my chin, tilting my head back. I still couldn't see his face.He crashed his lips onto mine. His tongue swept into my mouth, wild and greedy, stealing all my air."Say yes," he mumbled against my lips, his hard hips grinding aggressively against mine. "Come to the Eternal City. I'll make you my mate... my only bride... I'll claim you for real."Pleasure shot down my spine like lightning, making me shake.Gasping, I threw reason out the window. Just like the last ninety nights, I kissed him back, wrapping my legs tight around his waist.When it was over, my eyes snapped open. I was soaked. It felt terrifyingly real.But I couldn't care about that right now. That pomegranate crest kept flashing in my mind.The Night House. Rulers of the Eternal City. Descendants of the ancient Underworld God.Cold-blooded. Masters of life an

I dragged my exhausted body to Valerius's office. The door was cracked open.I was about to knock when the voice inside froze my blood."Of course, darling. I miss you too." It was Valerius.Smooth, but sickeningly sweet."I can't wait to see you either. Give me a few days to wrap things up here." He was laughing. Utterly devoted to his beloved.My hand hung in the air.He was flirting with his noble little fiancée.Just hours ago, this man was losing his mind in my bed. Begging me with a broken, gravelly voice like a shattered madman.In the harsh light of day, he was right back to playing the perfect fiancé."We have a nightmare of a meeting this afternoon." Valerius's tone shifted, heavy with dread. "Lord Cassian is personally reviewing the star readings. You don't know how terrifying he is. I need to make sure the astrologer doesn't screw up."I shuddered.Cassian Thorne. The Underworld God incarnate.But I didn't care right now. I bit my jaw tight and pushed the door open. I would

We left the ball early.Cassian practically shoved me into the fancy pomegranate carriage.The cab was cramped and dim. Just the two of us.He sat across from me, his long legs spread wide. As the carriage bumped along, his knees kept brushing my dress.The air smelled of sharp cedar and a hint of liquor. Pure, aggressive male energy filled the tiny space.I wrung my hands, too terrified to look up."Lyra."He spoke. In the dark, his voice was crazy deep.He leaned forward. His massive body instantly suffocated me with its presence.Those gray eyes pinned me down in the shadows."If a woman..." He paused, his voice tight. "...made a catastrophic mistake about a man."I stopped breathing."She furiously shuts him out and refuses to ever see him again." His long fingers tapped his knee. "How should he clear his name?"My heart skipped a beat.What the hell was he talking about?That sounded... exactly like what I did to that bastard in my dream last night!Could he read my guilt? Or was

Morning sunlight stung my eyes.I bolted upright in bed. My heart hammered.The memory of my ward being crushed by brute force still terrified me.That shadow magic was way too powerful for a normal noble to wield.Maybe Valerius was using some dark artifact?I touched my forehead where he kissed me. The skin still felt burning hot.Damn it. I bit my lip.Why was my body still reacting to that bastard, even knowing the truth?At dusk, a maid knocked on my door."My Lord is waiting for you at the observatory."I wanted to say no. But in this locked-down estate, Cassian's word was law.I changed into a gown and headed up to the top floor, my guard all the way up.I pushed open the heavy doors, and the high-altitude wind hit my face.Cassian stood on the wide balcony with his back to me.Clad in head-to-toe black as always. His broad shoulders gave off an aura that made you want to drop to your knees.He turned at the sound of my footsteps.His gray eyes locked onto mine. His harsh featur

"You... you're..." I backed up, trembling, my voice barely working. "The man in my dreams?"Cassian let out a dark chuckle and opened his palm.A faint sliver of silver starlight trembled in his hand, before being swallowed whole by swirling shadows.It was the leftover magic from my ward last night.My knees completely gave out."Drag this trash out." Cassian gave the cold order without even glancing at Valerius.Two huge guards appeared like ghosts."My Lord! Mercy, My Lord!" Valerius shrieked.The guards ruthlessly gagged him and dragged him out, his eyes rolling back in terror.The heavy doors slammed shut.We were alone in the study. The silence was deafening.Cassian closed in.I wanted to run, but my legs wouldn't obey. I could only watch helplessly as he stalked closer."Why are you running?" His massive body pinned me, his hard thigh sliding aggressively between my legs. "You were so bold in the dreams, spreading your legs and begging for me. Now you won't even look at me?"Hi
