Angelica was worried sick to her stomach. She didn't know where Lord Rayven was and she couldn't find him anywhere in the castle. She had tried to call him to see if he would show up but he didn't. She had tried to wait but now the sky was now turning dark and fear twisted in her gut. All she could think of was if he hurt himself. If something triggered him and she wasn't there to save him. What was she supposed to do? She was so close to leaving the castle but even then where would she look to find…-

Rayven left Angelica alone feeling all kinds of emotions. He had only meant to be romantic and heal her wounds but got caught up in the moment. He hadn't thought of healing her that way. She gave him the idea and when her body responded to his, he couldn't stop himself. His demon would now not try to fight him to mark her. The demon only got agitated to mark when it felt like the receiving end was willing and when there was a clear indication of no, then it retreated. Now his fangs wouldn't forcefully…

Angelica tried not to look at his reflection in the mirror as he combed her hair. Instead, she tried to calm her by wildly beating her, but that only did the opposite effect of what she wanted. "Do you feel better today?" he asked his voice as soft as the brush of his fingers on the nape of her neck. It made her skin tingle. "Yes." She breathed. "I want to make you feel even better," he said. Something about when he spoke in a low and soft tone made his mesmerizing voice even more appealing.…

Rayven woke up early in the morning. He looked to his side where Angelica slept peacefully. His sleep wasn't as peaceful. He had nightmares about his mother again and he woke up with wet eyes and face. Before Angelica could wake up and see him he left to wash up and change but his hands kept trembling. He had avoided hurting himself too long that now he was hurting if he didn't do it. He couldn't stop the itching anymore, even if he didn't want to scare Angelica. Looking at his hands, he tried to…

Angelica woke up feeling cold. She looked outside. It was night but the sky was clear and the moon shone brightly. She pulled her blanket up and curled to stop her shaking body, but she felt wetness and greasiness as she moved. She was sweating. The back of her dress, her forehead, and her neck were damp. Angelica wondered where Lord Rayven was. He had been beside her the whole day, reading for her, nagging her to eat and sleep and because she enjoyed his reaction so much she played hard to convince. It…

Rayven didn't like what he was hearing. He knew Angelica couldn't be the same person that Skender called a friend. Rayven knew that friend was the woman he used to love, but there was still some kind of connection there. Skender looked troubled as well as he sat quietly in a corner. From Angelica's dreams, it seemed like he was rejected by the prophetess. He offered her to be in their world which would require her to become his mate but she refused. And then Constantine found her. If he tortured her,…

Rayven was surprised to find out that she had a dream about Skender. Why would she? Skender had always felt something special for her and now she had a dream about him. What did it mean? How were they connected? There also seemed to be a connection to Constantine. She had a dream about him before she even met him. Maybe she just didn't remember? With William and her, maybe there was a past that remained hidden from them, to protect them. It seemed like she had experienced abuse at the hands of a shade.…

Angelica began to think that she was cursed. Just how many more things would she have to endure? How many more dangers and fears would she have to face? Why could the man she married just not be ordinary? Why were there some unknown creatures looking for her? She had just gone through an emotional turmoil after seeing her home and bringing back her things and the things her mother left behind. She missed her more than ever. Now, she even missed the old days she spent at home. Her life had been…

Angelica was working in the garden when she suddenly felt something strange. It was an alarming feeling as if danger was nearby. She looked around and spotted a man standing outside the gate. Standing up she went to see who it was. When she got closer, the feeling intensified. The man was clad in black trousers and a long black coat with a grey shirt beneath. His hair was long and dark and he held a cane in one hand. His face felt somehow familiar and made her heart beat in a strange way. "Good…

Rayven left Angelica after telling her that was just who he was. He couldn't change certain things. He was angry and didn't want to say anything wrong to her. He needed to calm down first. Going to his room he paced back and forth. He really couldn't help the need to punish. His hands were already itching to scar his already healed face or to hurt himself in any other way. With a sigh, he sat on his bed. He was so close to ignoring what Angelica told him and go find those filthy men. To stop his…
