KIAN I couldn't stop myself. All I wanted was a moment of her, to feel the way she tastes, to relish in the way she consumes me. Pleasure streamed through me right down to my dick making me twitch against her. Her soft moans vibrated against my lips, making me want to fuck her right now. Never had a kiss felt so good, I was already hard for her. Right now, the way I felt… All I needed was her and I would give everything up to have it. ‘Mark her and she is ours.’ Thanatos’ voice came through the link. I plunged my tongue into her mouth, letting go of her chin. I tangled my hand into those gorgeous silk locks of hers as I explored every inch of her sweet, tempting mouth. Her arousal perfumed the air and I let go of her wrist, wrapping my other arm around her waist and pulling her hard against me. She reached up, cupping her hand around the back of my neck as she kissed me back with equal passion and anger. She fought for dominance, yet I was the

MORGANA I didn’t get it, whatever was happening between us… Something had shifted since that kiss... I didn’t get what, but it had. As for those thoughts, I was sure it was his wolf that I had heard. But what I couldn’t get my head around was, was I really the Alpha Kings mate? How could that even be a possibility? One thing I was certain of was that he had been the man at the lake, and remembering that made my cheeks burn and my core throb. That voice that had said ‘mine’ had been the very same as the voice I heard in his thoughts. I sighed deeply. As a vampire, falling in love was something that didn’t happen often. But when we found the one, our beloved, the connection was there… My mother said your heartbeat would race and no matter if you knew this person or not, when you laid eyes upon him you would know he was the one. Perhaps it was similar to werewolves and mates… I wasn’t sure but we would only truly love once. When we loved, we loved with a passion

KIAN When something feels like it’s too fucking good to be true, it usually is. Although I knew that she was trying to prove that she had a hold on me, I was still in control. Fuck, mate or not, her touch alone was my fucking undoing. Never had I had such a good fucking release and that was just by her fucking hand. When Sage entered, I wasn’t expecting it. Although things were different now that I had found my mate... I still needed her as my Luna. I needed her to understand that she would be the Luna. If she went and told anyone about Morgana and me… that could ruin a lot more. I had pulled away, grabbing a towel, yet the guilt I felt for just leaving her in the shower… I never thought I’d ever feel like this. Her face was emotionless. Her post-orgasm glow made her look even more beautiful… the innocence in those beautiful ruby red eyes of hers… But… I had to do this. I left the bathroom and rushed to find Sage. "Sage!" She was almos

MORGANA Night had fallen and I was back in his bedroom. He was nowhere around, after Cain had gone I had checked for the niche in the pillar, and sure enough, there inside was four rather large vials of blood. I drank them quickly, placing the empty bottles back there. If Kian gave me blood tonight, then I would drink as much as I could, I needed to get stronger. Cain was right; I needed to be sufficient and be at my best. I was in bed now, but he never came. I stared at the ceiling, trying to sleep fruitlessly. Maybe I could do some snooping? I was alone after all… This was Kian’s room, surely there must be something about him here... I pushed the sheets away and got out of bed. Turning the lamp on, I looked around the room. I can’t believe I never bothered to snoop before. The bookshelves caught my attention. Books, files, notebooks, journals… Oh, Morgana, you had an entire wall with information. I walked over to it, silently running my eyes along t

THANATOS I am done, if this fucking pup was going to hurt my mate, then I will show him who the fuck the true Alpha was. The moment Morgana put those soft lips against Sage's, my anger snapped. It disgusted me when Kian kissed her, but it disgusted me even more to see my mate kiss this bitch! "Kian... Thanatos…" Sage whimpered, staring at me. "You heard what I said! She. Is. Mine! And if Kian cannot be fucking man enough to admit it, then I will!" I hissed, I grabbed her by her neck, wanting to rip her to pieces. ‘Thanatos don’t! You can’t tell her about Morgana!’ ‘WHY?! ASHAMED OF HER?!’ ‘No! I don’t want to risk her in any way! If anyone finds out-’ ‘Fuck off, I'm fucking in charge here!’ I hissed back, slamming my walls up. I hope he enjoyed the fucking treatment. He was a fucking dick. If he couldn’t accept mate, then he didn’t deserve mate! She was mine! "I-I’m sorry, Thanatos…" Sage whispered, look
