Elora’s POV
Just as he neared the entrance of the cave stepping into the light outside I spoke.
“He told me to Silas, told me he wouldn’t let our child pay for his sins” I screamed to him as he went to walk out of the cave, he froze for a second before turning on us.
Matitus and Dragus both walk toward me when his voice calls out. Both covered in the blood of the Dragon’s they killed and their own.
“You mean the Fae’s sins, everything has and always will come back to the Fae” I shake my head.
“That’s not true Silas, we never killed her that was your father, your father did it and caused the war”
“Yeah, but it started with a fucking Helcate” He screamed before shifting and flying off.
“Come Elora” Matitus says.
“You’re really not going to say anything, anything at all?” I ask has he holds out his hand toward me expecting me to take it.
“He is right, the Fae started it, and if his father asked for death, you should have let him do it. His father didn’t need to die by your hand, you took his only chance to say goodbye.” Matitus answers.
Yet I know he never would have went through with it, his father also must have known that too.
“He will calm down Elora, he just needs time, time to wrap around the fact he had his father for a few minutes and lost him again” Dragus tells me also stepping forward. I look at both their hands, they genuinely believe he would calm down, yet I could feel his hatred, it was hotter than the day he met me, hotter than anything I have ever felt. If it weren’t for the child I carry he would have killed me that I also knew without a doubt, he wanted me dead even if it meant killing him in the process, killing our mates, history with the Dragon’s always seemed to doomed to repeat itself and never ending cycle of anguish between to species destined to never quite be together.
Looking around the Cave those that remained and weren’t dead, were standing around awkwardly like they were to scared to move in the presence of the kings. Too scared to move and draw attention to themselves, the air in here so thick with death and bloodshed. His father’s body lying on the rocks below unmoving, a reminder of what I had done, what he made me do, yet I knew his intentions were good, I also feared that he doomed us to repeat the past again.
“And if he doesn’t?”
“He will, he loves you Lora. He is just upset” Dragus says reaching for me but I step back. I wasn’t willing to take that bet, I have taken that bet more times than I can count now and only just narrowly won. I won’t bet again, not when it comes to our child.
I get up shoving between them walking for the cave entrance as soon as I step out, I let my wings free, before letting them carry me, take my weight as I get higher. I look around and see the castle, see Aldrin trudging through the snow back toward the castle with Pluto’s brother, I let out a sigh of relief when I realise he is okay before looking toward the mountains. Without a second thought I take off. Silas was nearly all the way home already so I had time or so I thought. Matitus shifts giving chase but it wasn’t him that caught me, Silas new instantly I was intending to leave by the stupid blood promise I foolishly made. I heard his roar of anger blast over me as I flitted over the mountain heading for the trees on the other side to offer coverage what I wasn’t expecting was for his anger to fuel him, he swept past me effortlessly knocking me with his wing, I felt the brute force of it hit mine, the searing pain that radiated through my back made me screech in agony before I was falling, toward the trees, toward my death.

Loved loved loved this book. Thank you x...
Personally love the story/book. Loved reading it online and would love to purchase the book. Is it a little darker than I would like? Yes; however, it doesn’t mean I wouldn’t reread it. I also think that there is a lot more story to be told but I understand this being in the genre of “erotic fantasy” and trying not to stay too far from that. Would love to read a mythical fantasy/action version though. Would love to get closure of Aldin and how he feels about his families past, or if he even knew. Or diving deeper into Silas past as to why he is as angry as he is. Surely there were other events leading up to Blaire’s appearance in his life that had made him the villain he is. I would love more explanation as to how Taylor came back into the picture after betraying the kings. Just so many unanswered questions but also a really captivating read ♥️ thanks Jessica 🙏🏼...
😐 story was ok but I’m iffy about the romanticizing of the amount of abuse in this book and how forced the bond is. She doesn’t want them. they and the bond are forcing her to accept it. Also she keeps sacrificing herself for Abigail fine whatever but agrees to be mates with the 3 monsters? Like c’mon now wtf happened to all her fight? Can’t she be a bit more selfish? I’m just saying I knew this would happen eventually but the way it happened and when it did felt hella forced disappointing and a huge let down for me. By rating for this book dropped down to 0 instantly. Couldn’t the marking session happen when she was on better terms with them? Finding out Matt betrayed her trust and Silas threatening to kill her friends just to 3 seconds later get all horny with them felt kinda sick and out of place. Like did the mating have to happen instantly couldnt they give her some time to cool off first? Or even apologize? This book brushes off stuff way too easily and it truly bothers me. Feels like I’m wasting my time investing into the arguments and taking sides only for it to be resolved without so much as an apology they just move on and pretend it didn’t happen. It pisses me off reading their arguments knowing it won’t go anywhere and no development cause they don’t discuss any fucking thing. Makes me wonder why everyone is praising this author so god damn much. There’s a lot wrong with this story and it starts with the letter S. I’m disappointed adult women are the ones writing awful stories like this one. Comments and reviews justifying the abuse makes me wonder how they find entertainment in such violence to say it’s the best book they’ve ever read. That’s disturbing to think about...
Perfect!...
