Temptation
Chapter Twenty-Seven - Temptation
Balor's POV
I waited anxiously for Reyna to return from the meeting. I wasn't sure what to expect, and the fact that I couldn't actually be in there only made matters worse.
I had covered all of my bases. I glamoured myself to everyone except Reyna, which took a lot of energy. I also cast a memory spell on the host so she wouldn't ever remember encountering me. These events were so exclusive that I didn't even have to worry about cameras, which was an added bonus. Phones weren't even allowed past the front entrances, saving me from having to find a way to delete all photographic evidence of Reyna being here too.
"Another, sir?" The dealer asked me. I nodded as he placed another card down in front of me.
Fredericks went all out for these events. Apart from the ballroom and over-the-top decorations. He also had another room sectioned off and turned into a casino.
"House wins. Would you look to play again?

The sound of footsteps sounded behind us, and I reached for her hand, tugging her to move faster behind me. I went to let go of her hand as we rounded another corner, but Reyna only squeezed tighter.My heart started to beat a little faster as sparks travelled up my arm. I wondered if she could feel them too. If she could feel the same warmth I did, whenever our skin touched."This way," I said, pulling her in the direction we needed to go.

Chapter Thirty - TormentReyna's POV"You have a pretty twisted grasp on how to ask a lady out for coffee." I deadpanned, earning a huff of amusement."It's the tough ones I love breaking the most. But, on the other hand, watching your spirit slowly crack is just as euphoric. Plus, watching the light start to fade from those beautiful eyes of yours is going to be the best part of my day.""You said you wanted to talk. So talk.""In a rush, are we? It's not like you can leave." He laughed."Seems we're at a crossroads. I can't leave, and you're too much of a bitch to step out of the shadows." I snapped.
The Deadly One Acceptance
Chapter Thirty-One - AcceptanceBalor's POVWe exited the police station, and a bunch of press was waiting outside to bombard us with questions. They were like vultures circling their next meal. They all charged forward at the same time, shouting questions and accusations. Cameras flashed, and recorders were shoved all too close to my face."Once we get her back, she's going to pay for this," I muttered to Flint. He hummed in agreement before retreating back. He knew when to stay back, even if everything in me told me to shift and lose it. That wouldn't bring Reyna back, and it would only cause more trouble for my kind in the long run.Self-control was the most challenging and most detrimental thing to learn once you could shift because our wolves were so intuned with our emotions that they could shift for any reason, whether it be because of anger or

Ivan didn't bother to unstrap me from the chair. Leaving me here all night to freeze, hoping it would break me.The dress I wore was anything but warm and weighed a tone from being soaked again and again. My feet were also left bare. That had me guessing they were smart enough to know I would have used them as weapons.The shuffling of shoes against the gravel path grabbed my attention. I lifted my head slowly, ignoring the aches it caused my body to move. My eyelids felt like weights as I forced them to stay open."Are you ready to talk now?" Ivan asked.

I pulled it out and opened it, grabbing the red leather handle of the silver knife I forged when I was sixteen.It was one of the first things Keith ever had me make. The knife as a whole was small. The blade was a little wonky, and the tip ended in a small point. But it was something I made and was proud of it. I was an expert by the time I was eighteen and one of Keith's best apprentices.
