It was Nox’s turn to grab onto me, another snarl building in his chest. I hadn’t realized my eyes were traveling upwards until I found myself staring at a pair of dark wash jeans with tears along the thighs. Biting my lip hard enough to draw blood, I coaxed my eyes back to the floor. “I’m just havi
“The Eye of Horus.” Jada rasped. “Yes, the eye.” Those two words were spoken with such distaste that I knew something had happened to him, something that had to do with the Eye of Horus. “They have meddled with forces that should’ve been left untouched. Opened doors that were better left…closed. Al

Nox’s P.O.V. I shifted and walked into City Hall, smirking at the thought of the red mark on my ass. Had Lilac thrown her shoe any harder the heel would’ve broken skin. Not sure why I found her temper so addicting. Perhaps it was her hatred I wanted. After all hatred and love aren’t that far apart
He wouldn’t take me seriously if I lost my temper. No, he’d just blame it on the mate-bond and write off my concerns. “Actually, Lilac was the one who was kidnapped. It was Jeremy that took her.” It was a shitty thing to do throwing my future Beta under the bus, but he had disobeyed my direct orde
