“You won’t get it because in your eyes, we are just entitled, but have you ever considered that if it wasn’t for those so-called Elites that you fucking hate, you would still be in those caverns! We helped save you all! We freed you! My grandfather and biological mother fought in that battle that gave you your freedom! So many members of those so-called Elite packs died for us all! Alejandro almost died! Fuck, he did die! Even though Kia was pregnant, she knew she had to fight that battle! And Rayhan, who you fucking hate so much! It was his mate who travelled to the veil to the other world to make sure Endora hadno way back here! I’m fucking tired of you throwing a bitch fit! I get it, Leo. What Rayhan did was wrong! I feel that! But what have my parents ever fucking done to you? Those Elite you hate so much helped you and your people!”
I shove him back, but he doesn’t even budge. He tosses his cigarette onto the floor, his eyes flashing steely blue as he sneers coldly.
“So, there it is, the part of you who feels like you did us a fucking favour.”
“No! I’m just saying I get it! Rayhan fucking messed up, but he admitted it! He gets it! But don’t you see how many fought Endora? If those Elites, as you called them, didn’t, this world wouldn’t be what it is today!” I shout in exasperation, grabbing his shirt as I shake him, but even then, he is unmoving. White-hot rage is clear in his eyes as he steps closer, his body pressing against mine.
“Spoken like a true entitled princess. You will never get it because you only see it from your point of view. No one ever fucking gets it.” I try to push him away only for him to grab hold of my hips sending a violent jolt to my core.
“Then try to make me get it! I want to know!” I shout, my chest heaving in anger. He swallows, his eyes searching mine, and I know they are blazing silver. Our anger and whatever this is between us rages around us like a hurricane. “Tell me!” I scream, my eyes stinging with tears of frustration. “I want to know!”
“Shut up.”
My eyes widen in shock and confusion before another wave of anger flashes through me. I try to knee him in the balls, only for him to knock my leg aside with his foot and trap my leg between his. My heart thunders as a jolt of pleasure rushes through me when his thigh presses against my core. Oh, fuck.
“Don’t tell me to shut up!” I growl, trying not to focus on his body. “You have an argument, then throw it at me. Give me agood fucking excuse for you to be so -”
“I said shut the fuck up,” he growls huskily.
“You can’t make me -”
I am cut off when his lips suddenly press against mine in a rough, blinding kiss that sends my body into a frenzy of pure bliss. A thousand tingles course through me, and I feel every pore of my body react. My heart pounds, and I find myself kissing him back with passion fuelled by my anger and frustration. His hand slides up to my bare waist, pulling me closer as he deepens the kiss, my stomach knotting as he devours me.
Oh, fuck, he definitely can make me shut up.
The moment I feel him throb against me, and a moan leaves my lips, I freeze. One word screams in my head.
Nikki.
I push him away, and this time, he staggers slightly, his eyes flashing as he stares at me, our hearts thumping violently as we both realise what we have just done...
Restlessness
Azura
“We shouldn’t have done that,” I say quietly.
He shouldn’t have done that.
“Yeah, but don’t go fucking taking it the wrong way. It was to shut you up,” he says, his voice sounding thicker as he looks away. It had gotten to him, too…
This is it, the moment to reject him. I look up at him, trying to force myself to say the words.
“I…”
Do it, Azura.
Leo frowns as he searches my face for something.
Reject him. Fuck, why is it so hard? It fucking hurts.
How had he had the strength to do so? And after marking me, too. He raises an eyebrow, waiting, but I can’t do it. His scent is overpowering me.
I am looking for an excuse… asking myself what I should do. When I thought of what I wanted in a mate, I always imagined someone who found me funny, someone who would be okay with me being crazy. The type to laugh at the shit I get up to. Not everyone finds their fated mate, and not everyone has it easy. But is rejection the answer, without even fighting for him? Am I just going to walk away?
Nikki, remember Nikki.
“I…”
