Life’s Spiced Up with Some Werewolf Reads
I held her a beat longer, long enough to sear the message into her brain, then released her with a shove. She staggered forward, coughing, clutching her throat. Behind me, Judy muttered, “Damn.” Talia’s face had gone pale as parchment. Finn’s gaze flicked to me, unreadable. Roxy hunched, wheezing, but the fury hadn’t left her.…
She collapsed onto solid ground, coughing, smeared from shoulder to toe in muck. For a long moment, none of us moved, breaths ragged in the choking fog. Then Finn stiffened. His gaze darted to the right, toward the faint shimmer we had seen beyond the marsh. “ The second shard-it’s gone.” My eyes widened as…
The gates loomed ahead, shadows stretching long across the sand. The first round awaited. I tightened my grip on the obsidian pass and whispered to myself, a vow no one else would hear- ‘We will endure.’ SERAPHINA’S POV All the Arenas were clever illusions and simulations. But it was hard to remember that when we…
“Seraphina!” Judy bounded toward me, her ponytail swinging animatedly behind her. She was grinning so wide her cheeks looked ready to split. “You’re with me?” I asked, surprised warmth rising inside me. “Damn right I am.” She nudged my arm with a laugh. I couldn’t help it; I smiled. In this jungle brimming with tension…
His reputation was ironclad, his dominance undisputed. Every wolf alive knew his name, whether it was because they respected him or despised him. And though his presence would no doubt ignite tension, perhaps that was exactly what the LST required. Formidable. Impartial. Untouchable. Except to me. And to her. My lips curved faintly, although I…
I was halfway to leaving when his voice carried after me, sharp as a whip. “Aren’t you the least bit curious?” I stopped. Against my better judgment, I stopped. Because that was exactly what I was: curious. Lucian’s tone deepened, deliberate. “Don’t you wonder what allowed her to step out of the shadows?” He smirked,…
I found my pulse racing, heat crawling up the back of my neck. The weight of the prize pressed down on me, heavier than expectation. I wasn’t just competing for prestige now. This was about legacy, salvation, hope-for so many. For myself. And yet, despite the knot of nerves in my stomach, a strange fire…
She crossed the terrace with brisk steps, then clasped my hands dramatically in hers. “You’re going to crush them, Sera. Absolutely obliterate the competition. And I brought…a gift of my own.”. Lucian’s lips twitched. “Oh, Goddess. Spare us.” Maya ignored him. With a flourish, she pulled a tiny pouch from her pocket, scattering a few…
I exhaled, fingers flexing around the phantom feel of the bow. “Because it was never about being extraordinary. It wasn’t even about being good. It was about passing the time.” His brows furrowed. “No one ever invited me to play with them,” I continued, my voice quieter, softer. “No one wanted me on their teams.…
William barked out a laugh. “Composed? Hardly. He was a wild child-mischievous, impulsive. He and our little sister Sabrina were constantly at each other’s throats. Always brawling, always competing. We thought the roof might cave in some days.” I laughed with him, the image too surreal to hold in my head. Lucian-the man who barely…
