Dane
While Chris continued to swear down the phone at John about how he didn't care about the fucking law, Dane finally turned to find Lila. They'd been working for an hour and he'd been so focused, he hadn't realized she'd gone over to the couch.
She'd pulled her legs up and curled them under her, snuggling into his big sweatshirt, elbow on the back of the couch, and her temple resting on her fist. She looked little, and young, and desperately sad. Dane's heart sank. He wanted nothing more than to shield her from this—from everything. He wished he could put himself between her and the rest of the world. Especially his father. Every day. Every moment. He wished there was a way to buffer her from any kind of struggle or pain.
Don't forget that I have THREE books updating DAILY here on WebNovel:
LOVING THE FORBIDDEN PRINCE: It's a Royal Romeo and Juliet with dark mages—and a happy ending! Don't miss the story of Ayleth and Etan's star-crossed love. She's a strong but innocent Princess, and he's the powerful, jaded heir to her parent's bloodsworn enemy. Can their love survive the battle between families and Kingdoms?
FALLING IN LOVE WITH THE KING OF BEASTS: Elia is a poor university student until the night she's taken to the world of the Anima—ruled by humans whose ancient hearts pulse with the blood of animals. There she's forced into a battle to the death. But when Elia survives, and refuses to kill her final opponent, the King must either kill Elia himself, or take her as his mate.
Reth, the King of the Beasts, whose heart beats with the blood of lions, shocks everyone when he chooses the weak, human Elia to become his Queen. He promises her every comfort of his wealth and position—but warns her she will not warm his bed. He chose her to defeat those that were trying to corner him into blending his Leonine bloodline with the Wolves.
Elia must become stronger to survive among the Anima. But the vengeful Wolves see only a weak human that brought them shame. As Elia and Reth grow closer, the wolves are determined to destroy her. Will they admit their feelings for each in time to fight for the Kingdom—and their lives—against the treasonous wolf-tribe? Or will the wolves kill Elia and steal the throne?
