Adan After giving the order, rage filled me as I headed toward the castle. I shuddered to think of how close Brenna had come to being killed. Thank goodness Knox had jumped in front of her and took the blade instead, but I hated that he might die because of it. Regardless, I owed him a debt that I’d never be able to repay. “Sire.” A young maid held a robe out to me when I walked through the doors, and I slipped it on. It wasn’t proper to be nude in the common areas of the castle. Even though nudity was expected and a way of life for us, it was considered disrespectful within the confines of the castle. Instead of heading straight up to check on Knox and Brenna, I had to speak with Darius first. If his son were mine, he would be severely punished for not adhering to my wishes. After pushing open the doors leading to the dungeon, I headed straight toward his cell. “Let me out of here!” Darius yelled down the hallway, growing louder as I approached. “I’m the King of the Snow Warrior
Adan “She’s got you there.” Magenta chuckled as she tried to sit up, but I gently pushed her back down on the bed. “As an un-Mated Alpha of this Pack, the urge to mate will be exceptionally strong for you tonight. Even more so than with our future Queen.” “I’m fine.” I let out a deep breath, looking around. I spotted Magenta’s cell phone on the nightstand beside her bed and quickly dialed Nikoa’s number. Although I didn’t say anything, I was already starting to feel the effects of the Blood Moon, and Magenta was right. As the night wears on, the urge to mate will only get worse... until I claim Brenna as my Mate and Queen. “I’m calling Nikoa. You stay here and rest.” “Nikoa Blaise speaking,” he answered on the first ring. “Nikoa, it’s me… Adan.” “Adan!” It sounded as if he was walking as he shifted ears. “To what do I owe the honor of a phone call on the first night of the Blood Moon?” “I need you to marry me.” “Well, it’s a little sudden, but you’re not my type, man.” I rolle
Adan I hurried to shower and dressed in another tuxedo and combed my hair into place. Then I knocked on our adjoining door a moment later. “Come in.” When I opened the door, Brenna was dressed in another white gown, this one shimmering with sparkles and fitted at the waist, and then fell to the floor in a Mermaid-style, and her hair was still up, with tendrils falling gracefully over the curves of her neck. “You look stunning.” I took her hand and kissed it. “You look pretty wonderful yourself.” A smile lit her lips as she took both my hands. “Are you ready?” I gave her a sexy grin. “For you? Always.” She took both my hands and then looked into my eyes. “Hold on tight.” Then she yelled, “Traiceret, Nikoa Blaise!” Suddenly, we were moving without being moved through the Space-Time Continuum through a transparent tunnel as dark matter and stars rushed past. Then a bright light surrounded us, and we were standing in front of Nikoa. “Whoa!” he yelled, jumping back. “You could have
Brenna After saying our goodbyes, I took Adan’s hands and said, “Traiceret, my living room!” A moment later, we were rushing through the Space-Time Continuum, past stars and dark matter as wind rushed past us both. We stopped a moment later in my living room. Adan placed his hands gently on my cheeks as he looked into my eyes. “Wait for me here. I’ll be right back.” “Wait… what? Where are you going?” I motioned toward the window and the sun was beginning to fade. “It’ll be dark soon! The Blood Moon—” “Do you trust me?” he asked, sincerity coloring his eyes. “Yes, of course I do,” I replied. “But during the Blood Moon, you can’t help taking any wolf in sight! None of us can!” “Breanna, I’m the Alpha of this Pack, and my Beta has betrayed me. There’s no one else to see to the safety of this Pack but me. Please understand.” Adan pressed his lips firmly to mine, then he pulled away. “I have to check on the Pack, but I’ll be right back.” “Then I’m going with you—” I said, following h
Brenna Adan carried me to his bedroom, never breaking the kiss. “Adan, stop,” I breathed, needing a moment to process. No matter what was at stake, there was no way I wanted to be in a rush. His head snapped up. “What’s wrong?” I bit my lower lip as I sat up in the bed. “Everything.” I took a moment to collect my thoughts. “Here, we just lost Magenta, and I wish that my parents and my brother could have been here for our wedding—” Adan pulled me to his chest and stroked my hair as he rested his head against mine. Then he pulled back and placed his finger under my chin, forcing my eyes to meet his. “Brenna, as long as we’re here together in our suite, that’s all that matters.” A sexy smile lit his lips as he slid out of bed. Then he took my hand and led me into the living room. “Let’s have some champagne. There’s no rush.” “But what about Magenta and Willow? Conner Snow?” I scoffed, unable to believe what I was hearing. “Adan, it’s a lot to process! When I claim you, I want it to
Brenna He rolled his eyes as he chuckled. “You’re enjoying this a bit too much. Aren’t you?” “Immensely,” I teased as he slid close, the champagne forgotten. “So, what would you like to do now?” “Well, first, I’ll carry you over the threshold.” He scooped me into his arms, and I laughed as we walked into my suite, and then he carried me into his suite together, kicking the door closed behind us. “Welcome home, darling.” I gently touched his cheek. “Welcome home.” His lips descended upon mine as my heart pounded against my ribcage. I had waited my whole life for this moment, to find my Mate, and it was finally here. My inner wolf purred her satisfaction, glad it was Adan. I opened for him, deepening the kiss as I ran my fingers through his hair, pulling him closer to me. Then he pulled back and gave me one last sweet kiss as he stood me on my feet. “Why don’t I run a hot bath for you, and you can relax while I order some dinner. After dinner, I can give you a massage.” I shrugge
Brenna Adan’s cock brushed across my lower lips, causing my sex to throb with want and need. Then he pushed into me slowly as I dug my fingers into his back as he pushed into me all at once. I gasped against his lips as he began moving in and out, filling me with desire as pleasure went through my body. Then started moving in and out, slowly at first then faster until he was pounding me. Adan crushed his lips to mine as he rolled his hips into me, truly making love to me. We found a rhythm and I closed my eyes, but he wrapped his fingers around my throat, forcing me to look into his eyes. “I want to see you when you come.” I nodded as I stared into his eyes, half-mast with lust and love. I pushed against him, meeting him thrust for thrust, wanting him to take me deep. I pulled him to me as my breath quickened, wanting all he could give. Sensations filled me as he pounded into me, his lips groping mine as passion and desire overtook us both. Adan’s eyes met mine as I wrapped my legs
Brenna After we finished heating everything up, I lit the candles on the table. Then we sat down together, and I poured us glasses of wine. “Cheers.” I smiled as I raised my glass. Adan raised his in reply and took a sip. The warmth of the wine was comforting, and the pleasure of the moment was slowly washing away the tensions of the day. Adan smiled as he sat with me at the table, his eyes twinkling in the candlelight. I could spend the rest of eternity watching him. We ate dinner in companionable silence, savoring each bite. After dinner was over, we cleaned up before settling back at the table with another glass of wine. Then Adan took my hand and kissed it as he looked into my eyes. The tension of the day seemed to dissipate in that moment, leaving only stillness and calm in its wake. “What is it?” I asked, my voice low and quiet, breaking the silence. Adan shook his head. “I don’t know. I just feel... relief, I suppose. Like… no matter what happens after the Blood Moon is
