“Nobody saw it coming, I tell you. If we did, we’d have stopped it. But we were drunk and we were dancing, and when he struck, it was like, what the fuck?
Who attacks a wedding? Party crasher.
“The thief stole everything,” she then continued. “Took Father’s Lightning Bolt and Poseidon’s Trident and Hades’s Helm of Darkness, too.”
Damn. Who is the thief??
The thief imprisoned him at the bottom of the portal right here in Idaea.” She pointed a finger at the floor. “I feel him, even now.”
Shivers
“He did,” she said now, sipping on her tea slowly. “He saw. And once we get to him down there, we’ll know exactly who’s behind all of this. I’ll know exactly whom to hunt down.”
I'd LOVE to see that
“Godlight,” she told me. “The godlight you produced last night was blinding. If you weren’t in the Vault, the entire city would have seen it. I felt it all the way to my bones—outside. It’s not enough to get us through the portal tunnel and to the Underworld, not right now, but I believe that once you consume my Ichor, you will be able to harness enough power to do it.”
She is so strong!
That’s where Shade went off to when he disappeared. That’s what he did at the Academy—he fucking killed monsters!
For DAYS at a time!
But the voice in the back of my head, this time that of a man’s, was there to warn me just like in all the other dreams—no magic, not for any reason, ever. No magic. Squeezing my fists around the railing once more, I continued to watch the sky in silence, until the ache in my gut faded away together with the light of the sun.
Very curious to know what these dreams are…
Mortals and their godlight. As impossible as it sounded, when he said it, I understood—we saved them. We saved ourselves, too, but we saved Elyseans as well, just as much as they saved us.
In the middle of formation because they are important!!!
“Yes, that Hob,” said Shade, keeping his lips pressed to mine, and his hand on my neck and cheek. I loved the feel of it. “She has more godlight in her than most mortals in the past two centuries. You can see it when she uses it from very far away.”
Beatrix seems like a badass
“I heard you and Carmine talking that day when you found me in your room,” I reluctantly said. “Accidentally, but I heard you.”
Surprised She told him already!
“Regret staying here for you?” he said, shaking his head, kissing me harder. “Never, not for a second. I’d follow you beyond worlds, Snowflake.” I about melted right there in his arms.
ALSO MELTING (sadly not in Shade's arms)
Shade leaned back to look into my eyes. “I was wrong to be so afraid of you coming here, Snowflake. You’re so much stronger than I realized at first. But strength means nothing if you don’t use it, if you don’t mean to use it, no matter who you’re up against.”
Fuck yeah she is! Strong Capable woman!!
“And his actions are his responsibility. He makes his choices for himself. It’s his job to realize that he’s like you, too, but it’s your job to protect yourself, Snowflake. You can—but you have to want to,” Shade said.
TRUE CHAINS. You are not responsible for the actions of others
“It is, but you’ll handle it. With that godlight coming out of you, you can handle anything.” “Was it a lot?” I wondered. “Oh, yes.” “Like Beatrix Hob?” Shade chuckled. “About a hundred times more, at least.”
That's our girl!
“I’ve never seen anything like it. It was so pure. Almost like it wasn’t godlight.”
OH. Is this a foreshadow alert???
My eyes closed again, and I focused on breathing. “I was there,” I whispered, and he never stopped touching me. Never stopped kissing me. “In the last trial, when I disappeared, I went to this place that could have been the Underworld and I was made to drink from the Mnemosyne to pay for the memories I took from the Sphinx with one of mine. The goddess chose the night my parents died, Shade. I saw all of it from the outside. All of it, in detail.”
Th last secret finally shared! Love
I told Shade everything exactly as I knew it, about my parents, about Peter and Tobias and Max’s father, and with each new word I got lighter.
Oh shit she REALLY spilling the FULL last secret she had!!
“The secret to life is that there is no secret: all suffer. All break. All experience some kind of happiness. All feel. That is all there is to it.” —God of Thunder, 9th Edition, 250 By William Gendar, House Ruby
Damn. Powerful chapter epigraph!
For the first time in my life, I’d trusted someone so much that I’d told them everything as it was in my head. Every truth as raw as I knew it.
Chills. Love this open communication they have
Elyseans—that boy Peter—had indeed killed my parents. And Elyseans—Alan Roux, my best friend’s father—had also saved me. He had literally brought me back from the dead.
Still shook Alan is Max's dad!
A small Cerberus. A puppy Cerberus.
TERRORIZE ME WITH CUTENESS
The Cerberus pup was in my room, lying on the floor next to my bed’s legs, perfectly at ease.
The cerberus distribution system at work!
“Holy Lightning Bolt—what the fuck!” When Max says fuck, you know shit is serious.
HAHA Max was NOT ready and I love that he finally swore!
He took a step closer to Max, all three tongues hanging out. Max screamed and ran out of the room.
HAHAHA CRYING
Then she came closer and said, “But you gotta tell me how good he is in bed. How big his dick is. If he moans or growls or bites—that sort of thing. You gotta tell me.”
Love you Mave, way better at girl talk than Max hahaha
Because I already had all the answers—he’s an eleven out of ten in bed, and his dick is huge, the tip slightly curved up, and he moans and growls and bites—while he fucks me senseless for hours at a time.
DEAD. I AM DECEASED. Delicious
“There you are,” he said. “There you are,” I said, resisting the urge to jump in his arms. “I was looking for you.”
Can't not think of Rhysand to Feyre on Calanmi. "There you are, I've been looking for you".
Stolen away by Shade? Yes, sign me the hell up.
SAME. TAKE ME NOW!
“I’ll be your boyfriend, Snowflake. I’ll be your friend, or your lover, or your anything at all, as long as I’m that first—yours.”
SWOON
Shade was right behind her. Holding a leather jacket in his hands. “Thought you might need this,” he said with a grin, then came and put the jacket over my shoulders. It was heavy. It was warm. It was big—and it smelled like raindrops and his skin. Definitely Shade’s.
So fucking sweet.
“Looks good on you,” Shade said, raising a thick brow. I rolled my eyes. “You’re only saying that because it’s yours,” I teased. But he came closer and closer until his mouth was right next to my ear. “So are you,” he whispered, leaving me more breathless than the view did.
SCREAMING AND GIGGLING WITH DELIGHT!
“His dad is…” Mave’s voice trailed off as Max reached the fence gate of his house, then turned to wave at us before going in. We both waved and smiled, too. “His dad is not there. It’s just him and his mom, and sometimes her sister,”
What do you mean? Where is he?
And my usual dreams of different times, too, so detailed I almost believed they were real memories.
Feels like a big foreshadow setup
Suddenly, Max leaned closer and whispered, “He’s not far, just down the street in an institution.” My brows shot up. “Institution?”
Shit! Did not see that coming
A cause. A trigger. Like…like doing a spell that could cost you all your energy. All your magic. Like doing a forbidden spell that would bring a dead person back to life.
SHIT SHIT SHIT
I was responsible for the madness of Max’s dad. And I had no idea how I was going to live with myself knowing that.
Fuck… this will break max
She was a bit of a bitch when she was pissed, it seemed, not that I’d ever tell that to her face without being ready to die a gruesome death.
Lol true
“Oh, boy,” Arti said, shaking her head. “I wondered where she’d gone off to.” My brows shot up. “She?” I don’t know why that surprised me so much. “That’s Mors’s offspring,” she told me.
THE FEMALE PUP FROM THE PROLOGUE
“She’s yours now.” I blinked. “What?” “She’s yours. She’s apparently chosen you.”
Lol no take backs!
“Be careful with that one. Females are very aggressive. Very powerful. And do not freak out when she shows you her true size. She’ll get tired of maintaining a puppy image eventually. They all do.”
WOOF. Pun intended. I bet they are huge
“You do look like an Oreo,” I muttered to myself, and all three heads barked at the same time. “Oreo? You like Oreo?”
LOL a female, aggressive cerberus called oreo. I love it
It was just me and Shade here, and with him between my legs, I saw all the gods to have ever existed.
Orgasm so good you see gods
“Scream for me, baby,” Shade said
Passing away rn
My God, Shade had come into my room and I hadn’t heard a single thing, and he’d seen me touching myself.
AAHHHH SCREAMING AND GONNA PASS AWAY
“Touch yourself, Snowflake. I want to see,” he whispered.
DED
“That was the best orgasm I’ve ever had,” I admitted, and he chuckled. “Yet,” he whispered against my ear.
Pft pft pft delicious
The smile was automatic—I wasn’t alone. Oreo was with me, and I doubted anybody was going to want to come near me when a hellhound, puppy or not, was right there.
I fucking love Oreo. Can't wait to see her fuck someone up
“A fucking hellhound picked her, you tool. She’s readier than you,” Bailey told him, rolling his eyes.
LOL DYING
A moment later, Shade was lying on my pillow, guiding me back until I had my knees on either side of his head, and I took his cock in my hands again.
Haha 69 has entered the chat
he kept himself buried deep and came inside me.
Cant help but wonder about the birth control situation at the school lol Elysean Plan B anyone?
