Skender’s visions turned almost black from rage. He tore apart the shades yet the blood spilled was not enough to lighten his vision. They had intended to hurt his mate. To take away from him a person he cared for again. He would not allow it! He would shred every last one of them to pieces. He would bring an end to their race and then he would feast on their flesh and blood. Ughh…he growled with rage. More blood! More death! Who sent them? It was the only thing he could think…-

Oh, God! Skender was in real pain that he just now realized when he wasn’t focused on giving Roxana pleasure. He knew it was dangerous as a demon to start something that couldn’t be finished. Now her scent would linger on him stronger. His itch had already grown and his gums pained him as much as his stiffness did. He tried to think of other things, of the pain in his past, of drowning, of being numbed, anything to help the pain but he couldn’t. Especially not when she lay right beside. He took a…

Roxana still felt like this was all a dream. Did she really steal his heart? She found the ultimate treasure which was this man and now he belonged to her. If this was a dream then she was ready to never wake up. She leaned against him again and rested her head on his chest. “Are you not afraid anymore?” She asked knowing it wasn’t easy to steal his heart. She watched their fingers play together. “I am. I am still terrified, but you are to me the one worth suffering for.” Roxana frowned her…

“Roxana!” Alexander came running after her. “Why don’t you go fishing, Your Majesty. That must be more fun.” She threw her hair back, something she did when she wanted to display female confidence. “Then what?” “Nothing:” She said. “It is surely more fun than nothing.” He teased. “But I want to stay by your side. I need protection. You are my guard. Remember?” “There is no threat here.” She said. “Are you sure? It seemed like there were many threats just now. I thought…

Roxana wasn’t sure how long she cried in Alexander’s arms but she knew it was long enough that it had become night. They lay in the dark of her room. Her cries had now turned into choked breaths. Alexander rocked her lightly until she fell asleep. In her dreams, she was reunited with her family. They were happy again, playing outside their small home. The delicious smell of her mother’s baked bread invited her and her sister inside. Her father also left whatever he was building outside to come and…

“Have you found her parents?” Constantine asked. “I followed the bounty hunter. He found her father but he is dead. The hunter is now looking for the mother and sister. I will keep an eye on him and try to find them myself as well.” Constantine nodded. “Find them soon and make sure no one knows.” “Yes, My Lord.” Constantine dismissed the shade. He wasn’t sure what he would do with Roxana’s found family but he had been growing impatient. While he was here waiting, Skender had found…

A kiss? Roxana’s eyes dipped to his lips. Would his kiss be like the night before he collapsed? Somehow she became nervous. She wanted it to feel good like the time before that. Alexander didn’t let her speculate much. He leaned down and melted his lips against hers. Roxana shivered. Not because she was cold but because of the warm sensation that followed his kiss. It felt like her heart dipped to her stomach and began to beat faster down there. His lips were cold but she didn’t care for it…

Roxana never thoughts watching someone sleep would be so satisfying. After having the food challenge, she had insisted he should rest and he listened to her with a shake of his head. He had that smile where she knew it was because of something she did or said but she couldn’t understand why. Roxana didn’t know how else to help him since he refused to see a physician. Even after the shaking ceased, he remained pale. She watched him lay in bed, eyes closed, face relaxed. He must have been tired to fall…

Roxana couldn’t believe that she was offering to feed him. She could see that he was trying to contain his surprise because his eyes darted a little. Still, she felt bad. He was so wrapped up in the blanket, shivering and looking so cold that she could understand why he wouldn’t want to try to eat. “I can help,” She smiled. Standing up she went to grab a chair to sit closer. She could feel him watching her the whole time. He didn’t say much since he woke up, probably trying to fight the…

At first, when Skender woke up, he couldn’t open his eyes. His eyelids felt glued together and he could barely lift his hand to rub them. He sensed Rayven’s presence in the room who took notice of his slight movements. “Skender? Are you awake?” It seemed like he called the other lords because soon he sensed more people in the room. They tried to wake him up, but he just couldn’t open his eyes and their voices were distant. “We should be careful and ready in case his other side wakes up.”…
