I Can't Be Mated to Him Victory's Spoils
*Kieran*“Oh, my. That is a bright shade of pink.” My mother blinks her eyes a few times before sipping her wine again. She’s commented on Nessa’s dress at least five times since dinner started only a few moments ago. Every time she does, Nessa giggles and squeezes my hand beneath the table, as if it’s a compliment.It’s not one. My mother doesn’t give a lot of compliments, but when she does, one can tell she is pleased. At the moment, she looks as if she’d rather down the rest of the bottle of wine sitting at the end of the table than look at Nessa again.“Mother helped me choose it,” Nessa gushes this time, smiling at her mother whose bright yellow gown is almost as capable of burning retinas as the one Nessa has on.“We can’t tell you how excited we are to further unite our two kingdoms,” Nessa’s father says. He’s been practically giddy since we announced we were mates. He knows his own king will reward him greatly for creating such a tight alliance between Dun’s Crossing and Snowc
I Can't Be Mated to Him Stepping In It
*Blanca*After Candace left, I’d sat there immoble for quite some time. Her statement about Nessa being the worst match for Kieran had made me nauseated. But I’d managed to eat the food she’d brought me, and now, I’m pacing in the small area of my room.I can mind-link with Mr. Blake but no one in my family. Just to prove it, I try sending Candace a message that I’m done eating, but she says nothing back to me because she can’t hear me.My own family treats me worse than garbage. Why would they do that?The Moon Goddess matched me with someone who can’t possibly be my mate if everything I’ve been told my whole life is the truth.But what if it’s not?What if I am from Escuro? I have no idea how that’s possible since I have flickers of myself sleeping in a crib far away from everyone else in the castle except for the mean old maids who used to take care of me. I remember crying for my mother and being snatched out of that crib and shaken.Maybe that never happened, and it’s just a bad
I Can't Be Mated to Him I Don't Think We're Related
*Kieran*I’d seen her rush past while I was sitting in the rose garden, thinking about everything. My first instinct was to shout at her and tell her to get her ass back inside.But I can’t do that, and I know it.She has to leave. Not just because she doesn’t really belong here but because it’s the only way either one of us are going to get any answers. It seems certain to me that no one in our family is ever going to tell us the truth, and everyone else is afraid to say anything. Even Taner’s father, who’s provided more info than he realizes, won’t say anything more for fear that my father will kill him.Still, with my hand wrapped around my sister’s thin arm, I have to admit, I don’t want her to go–not alone.“Listen, Kieran,” she begins, breathing heavily from the run, “I know you think I shouldn’t be out of my room, but this is what you wanted, remember? You and Nessa?”I wrinkle my nose and lean away from her at the mention of the woman who wants to be my queen. “Nessa is the o
I Can't Be Mated to Him Run Into the Night
*Blanca*“Hand me the key, Kieran,” I tell him as I see guards coming closer to where he’s standing on the other side of the gate I just squeezed through. Right now, the guards are preoccupied, fighting the birds I’m sending to distract them. But it won’t take long before the birds get scared and fly off or the soldiers get the upper hand. If he is actually coming with me, which I still can’t believe, then he’d better get his ass over here soon.But he can hardly unlock the gate in his wolf form, so he needs to hand me the key. “Give it to me,” I whisper to him.Kieran stares at me for a long moment before shaking his wolf head and dropping the key–on his side of the gate. I think this means he’s not coming with me, and if I don’t hurry up and run, maybe he’ll change his mind altogether and work with the guards to get me back inside the castle. I take a few steps backward.In a blink, Kieran shifts into his human form. He’s standing there naked in front of me. Flashes of images from
I Can't Be Mated to Him Cover Your Tracks
*Kieran*“Man, do I have a few things to tell you.” I can barely see Blanca in the darkness of the cave. Her eyes are like polished onyx, and even the whites of them are difficult to make out. It’s probably for the best. I don’t really want to see her at the moment, not when I’m so fucking confused about everythig.“What’s going on?” She sinks down across from me. I wish I would’ve had time to pack something–anything–before we left the castle because my stomach is killing me. Another hunger pang flashes through me as I pull a knee up to my chest. “Did you hear anything through the mind-link?”“Oh yes,” I tell her. “I heard plenty. That’s what I wanted to tell you about.” I take a deep breath and consider how best to spew this all out to her. On our way here, the chatter in my mind was almost overwhelming. I could tell when we crossed out of range of the castle because my father’s booming voice stopped rattling my brain.“I’m listening.” Her tone is calm on the surface, but underneath
I Can't Be Mated to Him Who's Your Daddy?
*Blanca*Before I even open my eyes, I know that something is different. My back hurts, and the bed beneath me feels harder than usual.The pillow beneath my head doesn’t quite feel right either. It’s familiar–but it’s not the paper thin slip of fabric I’m used to resting my head on.When the pillow moves, everything comes back to me. My eyes fly open, and I realize that Kieran and I have shifted our positions in the middle of the night. His eyes are closed, thank the Goddess, and he makes a small murmuring noise as he readjusts on the floor.Somehow, he’s got his head on the backpack I was using as a pillow–and my head was on his chest.“Great googly moogly,” I mumble, barely a whisper. The last thing I want is for him to wake up and look up at me, seeing me hovering this close to him. He’d probably think I was trying to make a move on him again.I remind myself of everything I’ve discovered over the last few days and try to feel slightly more at ease about the horrific discovery we
I Can't Be Mated to Him Scent of Danger
*Kieran*If I was smart, I’d rest during the day and run at night. But I guess I’m not that smart because the sun is hanging overhead, and Blanca and I have been running for hours. We hug the base of the mountains for shelter to exclude anyone coming up on that side. So far, despite the messages from the warriors in my range that my father is absolutely pissed, none of them have been able to find us. They still trust what I’m telling them and are fanning further away from us. No one is even questioning me.It’s a good thing, too, because there’s no way in hell we’d be able to fight off a group of my father’s warriors. They are the best trained fighters in the world, and there are just two of us. Not even an entire flock of birds would help us with that.Blanca is keeping pace with me, though the narrow, rocky path has her a few steps behind me and not righ next to me. Earlier, we killed a rabbit and ate it in our wolf forms. I could tell by her eyes that it made her sad to do so, but
I Can't Be Mated to Him The History of the World
*Blanca*I’m wrapping strips of my extra skirt around Kieran’s shoulder wishing I had something to disinfect the wound with. Of course, I had nothing like that in my room back in the castle, so it wasn’t like I just forgot it. I had very little. If Kieran would’ve known he was coming with me, he could’ve brought us a lot of supplies, but he didn’t. Sometimes I still can’t believe he came with me. I’m not exactly sure I know why he’s here.“What’s the matter?” His voice is just above a whisper, and I can feel the warmth from his breath on my cheek. I try not to let it affect me. He might not be my brother, but he’s still not thrilled about being my mate.My eyes go to the mark on his shoulder as I think about it, trying to figure out how to answer his question. “Nothing,” I tell him, which isn’t the truth. “I was just thinking it would be nice to disinfect this.”“Yeah, it would be. Oh, well.”He doesn’t say more, and I find myself staring at his mark again. It’s different than mine.
