His kiss was like a wildfire, consuming me in an instant.
Lucian's stamina was extraordinary, his energy as fierce as a wolf on the icy tundra.
He wore me out until dawn, barely satisfied as he finally relented, imprinting a deep mate's mark on my forehead.
We spent a week like this, shamelessly indulgent.
It suddenly dawned on me that this lifestyle was far too decadent.
So I dragged Lucian to attend a full moon banquet hosted by an important allied wolf pack.
Many werewolves had heard of Lucian.
They approached him with drinking horns full of fine wine, eager to strike up a conversation.
I wasn't interested in the exchange of interests between clans.
Tactfully, I retreated to the balcony to enjoy the night breeze.
Behind me, familiar footsteps approached, tinged with a hint of suppressed anger.
"Elara, I've given you enough time. Isn't it about time you got over your anger?"
I turned to face Damon, noticing the dark circles under his eyes, looking somewhat haggard.
