I knock on Klevon’s room. When I hear his faint, “Come in,” I push open the door.I swallow as I watch him sitting against the wall. He is absently caressing his bottle of liquor. His eyes are on the window on his right, watching the rainwater run down against the windowpane.“Welcome back, Kaiya,” he whispers, shifting his attention to me. “Ready for another round?”He stands up, places the bottle on the table, and undresses before climbing onto the bed. I move towards him and sit on the side of the bed.Removing my clothes, I say, “You will need to tie me up on the bed, Klevon.”“What?”I look at him. He is completely naked. He really is a huge, muscular man. I am sure that other women will find him attractive. I just hope that I can do it now that I no longer have the mate bond with Theo.Completely baring myself to him, I sit before him on the bed. I glance at his crotch. Even without doing anything, he is already erect.“You need to tie me up on the bed so I won’t run away from y

I follow Theo into his room. He is not speaking to me, and I can sense his anger growing as Seth tells us his plan. He opens the door to his room and enters. I am about to enter too when he bars my path. I look up at him, and his eyes flash as he glowers down at me. His fists are tightly clutching the frame of the door. “Theo...” I whisper. He radiates waves of anger, and I am suffocating from it. I don’t get it. When we broke our mate bond, I thought I had his trust. I told him, right? That with or without the mate bond, I will always love him. “Theo, are you jealous?” I finally ask, breaking up the silence between us. “Who would not be jealous?! You have a mate bond with Seth, and you plan to go with him to Orttenburg!” I touch his forearm, but he slaps my hands away. Instead, he groans and enters his room. He sits heavily on the couch and leans his head on his arm. I enter, closing the door behind me. I kneel before him

I am on all fours, his erect member is between my legs while we share a passionate kiss. Both of us are lost once again in the sensation of our embrace. My body is on fire as he moves his hips against me. I can feel myself becoming more aroused. I moan aloud, feeling too sensitive at each of his thrusts.His fingers play with my chest, and then slowly, his hand moves further down my body. He reaches for my center, and my pleasure grows intense. I close my eyes as I feel the warmth and electricity of his fingers exploring me. I savor every movement, his body pressing against me.After all the touches and thrusts, I feel like I am going to lose control again. I want more and more. Theo seems to sense it. He presses harder, sliding faster between my legs. His rhythm is perfect until another wave of pleasure passes through my body.Finally, after what seems like an eternity, Theo releases his grip, and I feel his body slump against me. He’s heaving, pant

Seth and I stand together in a dimly lit cell, the only sound is the echoing of our breaths. A single lamp lights the room in a dreary glow. There are papers on the table on the right and vials of liquid on the left side. I massage my head as I watch Seth in the middle of the room. His fruity scent is assaulting my nose. I’ve become used to it by now. It’s been a few weeks of trying to thwart what the mate bond wants us to do every time we are alone. “Hmmm,” he mutters, his face bright with an eerie gleam of excitement. “Ain’t this the most interesting result we had ever since we started?” “You mean that this is the only result we had that can possibly justify what we are doing to these people?” Seth looks at me and smiles. “Even now, you are still hesitant.” I look away. I still can’t fully accept that we are using humans as experimental subjects to regain some of my memories, even if they are hardened criminals who’ve done unimaginable crimes. Seth sits beside me and holds my e

“What the hell is going on here?!” Theo booms, his eyes blazing with fury. I freeze as I see him, my heart pounding in my chest. “King Theo! I told you that this is King Seth’s private area! You are—“ “Your King has done the same thing in my land!” he growls at Darius, who is much taller and bigger than him. Seth stands up calmly and meets Theo’s gaze. “There’s nothing going on here, King Theo. We were just talking.” Theo steps closer and takes in my state, his eyes flickering between Seth and me. “Talking? With your hands all over her? I’m not stupid, Seth. I know that you wanted her even before you have the mate bond with her!” Seth’s jaw tightens as Theo approaches him. Standing tall and unflinching, he says. “I’m not trying to do anything, Theo. Kaiya and I were just having a moment.” “A moment? Is that what you call it?” Theo sneers, grabbing Seth by the collar of his clothes. I stand up, panic rising in my chest. “Theo, stop! We were just talking, I swear!” But Theo doe
