Roxana’s body reacted immediately to Alexander’s words. She was beginning to realize that certain words could make her melt even faster than a touch. Why did she find this arousing? Alexander turned her around, pushing her back against his chest. He removed the hair from her neck and as his lips made contact with her skin, her head fell back involuntarily. Her eyes shut as he kissed and nipped at her neck until her skin tingled with that strange sensation again. A tremor went down her spine and she…-

Roxana looked at herself in the mirror after wearing the beautiful nightgown she bought. The lady at the shop recommend a light pink gown and told her it complemented her teal blue eyes and the tone of her skin. Roxana couldn’t deny that she looked good in it. The gown reached below her knees, exposing the lower part of her legs. It had a sweetheart neckline adorned with lace and the sleeves reached right below her elbows. They were also adorned with white lace at the end. The chest of the dress was…

Roxana left Alexander’s chambers feeling some kind of rush she couldn’t explain. She felt somehow powerful, in control, and satisfied that she could also make him feel frustrated. It was almost the same feeling as when she discovered something new and exciting and with this, the excitement was even more because it felt forbidden. That slowly made the excitement fade and her face burn hot. No. He touched her too so why would she be embarrassed about touching him? It was time to use her skills to…

Skender didn’t want to give Blayze the satisfaction he was seeking. Fights and anger gave him some kind of rush and probably made him feel strong or bad or whatever else twisted idea he had. And almost all of them enjoyed some type of pain even though he hadn’t seen Blayze inflict any pain upon himself except for running his mouth. In the early days of their punishment, Lucrezia was his target. He somehow always looked for ways to annoy her until she one day chose a punishment for him that made him…

“Where is Skender?” Acheron asked when the meeting holder didn’t arrive. “He must be busy with his lady love or perhaps he got his heart broken again. I am not sure.” Blayze shrugged. “What did you do?” Acheron asked him. Lazarus began to shake his head. This man needed some psychiatric help but he was sure Skender could help with that soon. “I just made things a little more interesting since it was solved too easily,” Blayze said. “You have issues with Skender. Keep his mate out…

Skender was getting his hair combed when Roxana came into his chambers. He turned to her with a smile but the look on her face made his smile fade away. ‘Do you know what I am thinking right now, Your Majesty?’ He heard her thoughts while her mouth remained curved into a twisted smile. Oh, she found out. Bloody Blayze. Skender dismissed the maid. Once the door closed behind her, Skender thought of explaining himself but Roxana held her hand up to stop him. “Don’t say anything.” She warned.…

Skender went back to the castle to clean himself up and change into something new. His clothes were soaked in blood so he just burned them. Now one problem was out of the way and his plan was to solve the other one using Constantine. As much as he wanted to kill him, he thought he could benefit from having him alive. A shade leader that he knew and could control would be better than one who would go back to chasing demon mates again. There was also something about Constantine that he couldn’t shake off.…

Constantine knew he would get a visit soon after the incident he arranged and he knew the visit wouldn’t be pleasant at first. So he was surprised when Skender came to him calm and collected. He didn’t like this. What did it mean? Skender teleported right into his parlor and made himself comfortable. “Some shades attacked my mate.” He spoke calmly. It was harder to fake when he was calm. “You know I have nothing to win from making shades attack your mate. I said would keep them away.” “I…

“Listen to your body. Only push when you feel like pushing and when not, take a break to breathe.” The midwife instructed. Roxana was told not to watch another woman deliver until she had her own child first. Now she understood why. This was frightening and it seemed to never end. She became anxious and tried to hide it to provide support to Angelica. She was beside her the whole time. Angelica’s face was flushed and damp with sweat. “Good. I see the head now. Push again when you feel like…

Roxana watched Alexander disappear into thin air as he walked away. She stood there staring into the emptiness, where he had once been walking. Her mind refused to function and she didn’t know what to make of all this. A demon? And if not the kind she believed in then what? And where was he going? From the way Angelica told him not to go alone, Roxana felt like she should worry. Worry about someone who could tear apart a dozen of large wild animals. Oh, Lord. She was losing her mind. “Roxana?”…
