163. Baffled Male
~ CASIMIR ~
I was drowning in her.
Kneeling there, slumped together, muscles trembling, breathing ragged, and my heart…
God, it was terrifying what she did to me.
Taking her had felt more than necessary. It had felt… urgent.
I’d been bathed in lust before, driven for a female, or just for pleasure. But this… this felt like she had slipped those little fingers between my ribs to grasp at my heart and wasn’t letting go.
I didn’t want her to.
And yet… ever

~ CASIMIR ~I realized I’d stayed open to her in my mind, so Jesse had seen flashes of what I envisioned when I thought of the two of us together.“It’s not a joke!”“You don’t want me to want you?” I said, tipping my head, trying to decide if she was adorable, or being childish.“No! I mean, yes, of course I do. But no, that’s not what’s bothering me.”“Then what is it?”Her brows pinched a V over her nose. “I guess it’s… it’s that it feels less special when you know other people are… aware of i
Slave to the Wolf King 165. Promise Me
~ CASIMIR ~Jesse sighed and rolled her eyes. “Sure, sure. Sounds like an excellent plan,” she muttered. But I didn’t have to reply because she had already leaned into me and up on her toes to kiss me one more time, quick and hard. She’d meant to pull away swiftly, but I held her there in the kiss for a long moment until she sagged in my arms, then groaned—though not because of me.“I have to go, Cazz,” she sighed, tipping her head down to my chest. I stroked her hair.“I’m not stopping you,” I grinned down at her, because it was gratifying to know she was as reluctant to leave me as I was to have her go.

~ CASIMIR ~A message from Rake.Rake who was with the humans and going after Jesse’s brothers.That made me sit up and take notice.“What does he say?” But before he could respond, I was out of my chair and striding around the desk to grab the paper and see for myself.Ghere pulled a piece of paper from one of the deep pockets in his cloak and unfolded it to present to me.I snatched the paper from him, perhaps a little sharper than necessary, but Ghere only sighed as I leaned over it, frowning.To my relief, it was covered in
Slave to the Wolf King 167. Power Full – Part 1
~ JESSE (Earlier in the morning) ~I got a lot closer to Maya’s cave before I lost the verbal link with Cazz this time. He’d already explained that he was able to reach much longer distances than I could with wolves, so I prayed that link between us would keep growing and one day I wouldn’t lose contact with him when I came to Maya. Or maybe even further.That ache that I seemed to carry for him just wouldn’t let up. Even though we’d only just been together, I was hungry for him. Everything in me pushing, driving me to turn around and go back, to ignore the demands and responsibilities and just be skin to skin all day.More than once I stopped walking, began to turn, then mentally slapped myself. It was the bond, that was all!&

~ JESSE ~Her expression got very serious. “I don’t believe so. I believe… I believe he has seen the error in his father’s ways—at least, some of them,” she said, though I didn’t like the way she wasn’t meeting my eyes.“Maya—”“Jesse, this is… you’ve achieved something that none of the females in Cazz’s Royal line have done. You’ve captured your mate’s heart. And gathered his power. This is… stunning.”I was too busy thinking back through all my conversations with Cazz, all those memories he’d shown me, trying desperately to remember if he’d ever actually said he wouldn’t make our kids do the same thing.…Cazz stepped right up, standing over me, staring righ
Slave to the Wolf King 169. Non-Negotiable
~ JESSE ~Maya let me go almost an hour later than usual, “to make up for my tardiness.” By the time I literally ran out of her cave, I was aching for Cazz, and also angry, and terrified. It was such a confusing turmoil in my chest and body because the longer I was away from him, the more my flesh ached to have him again—but knowing what I knew now about how an Heir was selected…It made me cold.I couldn’t stop thinking about the grief he’d had in his eyes when he talked about killing his siblings—and also the intensity when he spoke about reaping the benefits of it.I hadn’t understood at the time, I’d been consumed with wanting to help him stop beating himself up, but maybe… maybe the reason he felt bad about it was because even though he hated it, he didn’t w
Slave to the Wolf King 170. Future You
~ CASIMIR ~The moment I got her in the door of her rooms, she yanked her hand out of my grip and turned on me.“This isn’t negotiable, Cazz!” she hissed.‘In the bond!’ I snapped back. ‘This is not a conversation for anyone else to be a part of—make certain your mind is closed to everyone, Jesse. There are things I need to explain that are not for other ears or minds to hear.’Her lips pursed and she folded her arms, glaring at me, but she did as I asked.
Slave to the Wolf King 171. Necessary
~ JESSE ~I wasn’t sure what was happening to me. Everything Cazz said terrified me. But every thought, every breath that felt frightening, every weight in my gut that felt like it should push me back and away from him, only shoved me closer to him.I needed him, not for gratification, but because it was only in that place, when we were both abandoned, that I felt utterly sure of him. And I needed to feel sure of him.So, when I fell into his chest and kissed him, when he wrapped his arms around me and sighed with relief, something in me remained desperate. Jittery and insecure—like he was pulling away and I had to fight to keep him close.
