Chapter Twenty
Kadel
She said yes
The words rang in my head like a battle cry, one I’d waited a lifetime to hear. She said yes. Not just to me–but to us. To being mine..!
but
I hadn’t even drawn breath before I swept heri into
my arms, my heart a hammer in my chest. Selene’s limbs were light, easy to carry, her scent–gods, her scent–was wildfire and honey. It wrapped around me, filled my lungs, sank into my blood. I carried her through the Great Hall like a conqueror returning from battle, ignoring the elders who watched with unreadable expressions, some tight–lipped, others with eyes that glinted like they’d seen this day in prophecy. Let them watch. Let them gossip. Let the whole godsdamned realm know- she is mine.”
in my gut.
But beneath the triumph that bloomed like a second heartbeat, suspicion simmered in Callister. I didn’t trust her. Not for a single heartbeat. Not with that manipulative smile she always wore like a veil, nor the conveniently timed poison that had just barely tipped Selene into heat. It hadn’t been enough to harm her–just enough to make her desperate. Needy. Pliable.
But if Callister had hoped to steer her toward someone else, she’d miscalculated.
Too bad for her–I was the one Selene chose. The right one
We’d barely cleared the corridor when Selene shifted on my back. Her breath was hot against my neck. Her thighs tightened around my waist as her hands slid across my chest, then lower
“Kade…” she murmured.5
There was something unhinged in her voice, a sweet madness. Desire, yes–but it was more. It was possession. Craving. A hunger that pulsed in her words.
One hand fisted the collar

by shirt. The other slipped lower, teasing, testing, brushing over the rigid length straining against my pants.l I sucked in a breath through gritted teeth. My steps faltered.
“Selene-“B
She surged forward, slamming her body against the wall, using the jolt to flip us around until I was the one pressed against the stone. Her eyes bumed Dark fire.
With a gasp, she dragged me down into a kiss that ignited everything inside me. It was wild, messy, searing. My back hit the cold wall, but she didn’t care. She was already climbing me, arms wrapped around my shoulders, legs straddling my hips, grinding against me with a shamelessness that stole my sanity.
“Touch me,” she breathed.:
My name–Kade–was a prayer and a curse on her lips. I tried to steady myself, to think, to wrestle control–but then she grabbed my hand and shoved it into her pants.
My fingers met slick, pulsing heat. She moaned-loud, guttural, sinful.
“I need to come. Now”
I obeyed. Two fingers slid inside her as my thumb found that spot she needed. She rode my hand with abandon, gasping, trembling. grinding down until her body locked and she shattered with a cry that echoed down the corridor like a song of ruin.
My cock throbbed painfully. My wolf clawed beneath my skin, howling with glee, demanding release. But Selene wasn’t done 2
She turned, bracing her palms against the wall, and reached back to guide my cock into her.”
Her breath caught as I slid in.I didn’t hold back. Couldn’t
I gripped her hips, slammed into her, fast and hard. The corridor disappeared. Time fractured. All I could feel was her heat, her pulse, her body clenching around me like she was trying to pull me deeper bind me to her soul.!!
Her moans were high and broken, the sounds of a woman possessed.§
We came again–together this time. The air between us crackled, charged, electric.
Still, she clung to me She turned, her eyes glassy and wet with pleasure. “Again, she whispered.
I didn’t hesitate.
She climbed into my arms, legs over my shoulders now, straddling my face. Her scent–musk and heat and something uniquely her- coated my tongue as I feasted
She ground against me, rode my tongue like it was salvation, hands fisting in my hair as her thighs trembled.
She came with a scream!
And then–A cough sounded.
1 looked up slowly, lips glistening, eyes burning An elder stood at the far end of the hall, horror etched into every wrinkle.!! “Alpha perhaps a more private location?” he offered, voice cracking.
Selene giggled, breathless.
I growled low wrapped her in my arms again, and stalked past the elder like he didn’t exist. Down the hallway. Toward Dur chamber now She slammed the door shut the moment we entered
