NARRATOREven though Silas knew she was his mate’s mother, that she wasn’t responsible for his suffering, every fiber of his being rebelled against showing even a shred of courtesy to another Selenia—anyone who wasn’t his Sigrid.A low growl rumbled behind Valeria.Aldric was barely restraining himself.How dare he show such disrespect to Valeria—the very woman who had brought his mate into this world?Sigrid also looked at him anxiously. More than anyone, she understood him, but that didn’t mean she liked his dismissive behavior toward her mother."Silas…""It’s fine, pup. He needs time. I understand his fears very well…"Valeria wasn’t offended in the slightest. She was about to lower her hand, which had been extended in the air for some time, but suddenly, a larger, colder one took it."Thank you for giving birth to her," Silas said, clumsily returning the greeting."I am the only one blessed by that," Valeria smiled, gazing affectionately at her daughter.Sigrid couldn’t help but
NARRATORValeria glanced around nervously as they walked through the passage.She trusted her daughter, but the negative energy in the mist surrounding them made her hair stand on end.Aldric squeezed her hand, sensing her unease, and quickened their pace. The end of this tunnel seemed close.Valeria imagined they might emerge at the battlefield, near the ruins of the Selenian gate.Though everything had been left in shambles after the explosion that destroyed the seal completely, there shouldn't be anything left… right?She heard Sigrid’s sharp gasp of astonishment ahead of them.A bright light flooded their eyes, and her long lashes fluttered as she struggled to believe what she was seeing.They had emerged onto an open plain. Right now, they stood atop a hill covered in soft green grass, swaying wildflowers dancing with the wind.Where was this place? And more importantly… who were all those armed people waiting for them?Aldric tensed. Was this an ambush after all?His gaze locked
NARRATORAt the front of the army, a man wearing a helmet adorned with black feathers watched the exchange with piercing blue eyes.His sharpened hearing caught every word of the conversation—something the other Elementals couldn’t perceive from this distance.The restless horse beneath him shifted uneasily, but it wasn’t nearly as unsettled as his own racing heart.An opportunity. This was the miracle he had prayed to the heavens for.The man on horseback—the Duke of Everhart—held a great secret.The Elementals believed they had successfully blocked all supernatural beings outside the dark mist.They had no idea how wrong they were.Some had been trapped inside when Umbros was sealed away—forced into hiding within Elemental society.They had gone from being lords to being outcasts and hunted fugitives, living in constant fear of discovery.A smile of relief spread across Elliot Everhart’s lips. His mate was pregnant—with two wolf pups.Now, at last, they had a chance to survive.****
NARRATORDressed in a stunning cream-colored gown that flowed to the floor, embroidered with roses in tulle and satin, she looked breathtaking—radiant.Silas walked down the carpeted aisle, guided by Valeria, but he was utterly spellbound by those gray eyes, bright as stars, her soft skin, that smile that warmed his very soul.Gods, how he loved this woman.He had missed her so much that he couldn't fathom how he had survived all those years without her—without losing his mind completely.His brain had erased her, shielding him from insanity, just so he could survive until this very day."Now you have to ask her father for her hand," Valeria’s voice pulled him from his daze.Looking at the massive redhead standing beside his Selenia, he recognized those same gray eyes— at least in color.But that permanent scowl? That was something else entirely."King Lycan, I—only Silas, just an Elemental—ask for the hand of your daughter, Selenia, Sigrid Von Carstein. I wish to be her protector, he
NARRATORValeria’s inner she-wolf was fully awakened now, and she gazed at him like a predator eyeing its next meal."Baby, I know exactly what you’re doing," Aldric rumbled, his voice hoarse.Just her presence and the heated images in her mind were enough to make him hard."And what are you going to do about it?" Valeria flicked the lock shut and began to advance through the darkness, the moonbeams illuminating her in intervals.The intoxicating scent of wine had her dripping, the desire roaring in her veins, hotter than ever."Vale, I don’t want to hurt you. The pregnancy—""Shhhh."Valeria stopped in front of him.Her delicate silhouette glowed under the moonlight, standing before Aldric’s massive frame, trapping him against the desk, her slender index finger pressing against the sexy lips of the King."The pups are fine, but their mother isn’t. I need the vital essence of my male…" she whispered in that voice that made even Aldric’s heart stop.He watched as she took a step back,
SILASI took a step forward, then another, hesitant—would she like this illusion I had created from my dark magic?"Love, is that you?" Her beautiful eyes looked at me, doubtful, standing in the middle of the clearing, bathed in silver light.Her magic reached out to me, probing, testing me. I began to move toward her.The pads of my massive paws pressed against the fallen leaves and soft grass. I felt a little ridiculous, but for her, I would do anything."It’s me," I told her in her mind."Silas, you turned into a wolf!"She leaned over my massive form, her hands burying themselves in the mist-like fur I had conjured.I lifted my head, mesmerized by her smile, contagious and radiant, as she stroked me with joy and wonder.It had been worth the effort, practicing until I mastered this form."I can create a wolf with magic too!" she said, her eyes sparkling."But… I don’t know how to transform my clothes properly like you do… mmm, wait a moment!"She darted behind a tree. I heard the
SILASMy heavy breathing fans over the soft white fur.I have to constantly remind myself that it's her first time, that I need to control myself. I straighten up and shift again.Clumsy and a bit slower than her, but steady. I guide her where I want her to go.A massive black wolf leaving a trail of dark mist and a beautiful golden-haired she-wolf running under the moon.I reached the edge of the lake and leaped over its calm waters.Beneath my paws, the surface hardened instantly, allowing me to move forward.Sigrid followed me, golden flashes marking the path she traveled.We touched and nuzzled each other, always by her side, always with my Selenia.I crossed through the dark mist, the barrier into the Realm of the Elementals, which opened to let her pass. She would always have access to this territory.She followed, without question, over the hills, through the mountains, skirting the cities the elementals had built over so many years.But inside this prison, there was something
SILASThe tiny pink slit parted slightly, dripping intoxicating honey that had me salivating.The plump petals on the sides and her swollen, hard clit showed just how aroused she was.The pads of my index and middle fingers stroked lustfully along the entire opening, gathering her fluids, watching her like a pervert.My cock throbbed, trembling with the rigid clench of all my muscles.“Mmmm…” A heated moan slipped from her lips as I started touching her virginal flower.Up and down, without slipping into the tight entrance, just teasing her.I circled her clit and pinched it lightly between my fingers, rolling it in slow circles.“Silas…” She writhed in pleasure, calling my name. My eyes locked onto hers, glazed, damp with desire.Fuck, fuck, fuck…I leaned over her and kissed her deeply, passionately, desperately.My fingers explored and traced the soft folds of her pussy.My mouth traveled down her neck, leaving a trail of fevered kisses.My middle finger pressed in slowly, little b
