Psycho Devils (Cruel Shifterverse, #5)

by Jasmine Mas

The honorable House of Malum was bound to a lying, weak fae. A useless. Manipulative. Woman.

FUCK. YOU.

Until we found our other Protector, we couldn’t touch one another like we wanted. Like we needed.

Wait... Why?

We’d met Orion when he was standing over us in the middle of the night, watching us sleep. Even after we’d all realized we were mates, he’d still break into our rooms to spy on us.

Good lord

Our mate bond wasn’t completed; it couldn’t be until an act of intimacy occurred among all mates.

Oh she's totally your fourth and you have to fuck her. Why do you think Orion's so obsessed??

I never would have agreed if I’d known who it was.

Is he saying he knows who it is and it's her?

She brought dishonor to us all.

DISHONOR ON YOU. DISHONOR ON YOUR FAMILY. DISHONOR ON YOUR COW

A humiliated woman temporarily gave me the illusion of control.

OR. And hear me out here... You've got Mommy issues.

How dare he take what was ours? The three of us got to our feet as the screams in the hall increased. He threatens Arabella. Must protect her. Must get her back. Must keep her close. She’s ours, nobody else’s.

Sounds like a mating bond to meeeeeeee

What did you call a murderer who didn’t want to kill?

I feel like she's actually their Revered

It was pathetically small, and my fingers overlapped twice.

Is that even possible?

“I recommend just preemptively euthanizing yourself. Your personality is messy, and I don’t see it improving.”

It's giving Paris Gellar

“That has nothing to do with the tattoo.”

Dick's over here with literally all thr answers being all "ask the right questionsssssss"

“I hope,”

“that you die painfully and get shanked up the ass.”

“What type of misogynistic, close-minded jerk would hold the fact that you’re a girl against you?

Uh her boyfriends??

“Why are you on top of Arabella?”

It took him way too long to notice this

They’d been aggressively horny since I’d gotten the tattoo.

Normalize gaslighting men.

Done.

Orion whispered as he tried to pull his psychotic mate off me. It didn’t work.

I think he knows that she's their fourth... Question is, why isn't he saying anything?

Men were so melodramatic.

Facts

It should have been a routine exercise, but it wasn’t because of one person—Arabella. She wasn’t okay. I could tell she was mentally struggling.

And you love herrrrrrr

We had a little arrangement. I told him everything I heard, and he told me everything he saw.

HOW DO THEY NOT SEE WHAT'S GOING ON?! Men are fucking idiots.

At the time I’d convinced myself that it had sounded off. That they were faking it.

Never doubt yourself babe

I wanted to be Arabella’s villain.

Each day last week I’d woken up and said my morning affirmation: “I am the victim.”

lol

the enchanted “WHORE” carved into my flesh

I swear these boys are gonna lose their everloving minds when they see that for the first time. And if they don't i will enter this book and murder them

“I think you already know,”

THIS MOTHERFUCKER KNOWS AND ISN'T TELLING ANYONE.

“Did you enjoy your dalliance with a mated woman? You’re such a whore.”

Ugh. I want him to see her back, he'll feel like such a fucktard

Did you know one of your eyes has a little gray in it?

Because its her dads eye

“If anyone looks at your naked body, I’ll kill them.”

I am so confused.

“If you knew what I was, you wouldn’t be saying that.”

WHAT IS HEEEEE

My new aesthetic was cozy, drug-dependent swamp monster.

Omg that's mine too

Something was different about Sadie, but I didn’t feel like the moon goddess was the reason.

I swear if this bitch is pregnant

I’d gone to her first and not my Revered.

I think she's the Revered you dumbnutz

It was obvious what was happening. The House of Malum was bound to a slut.

Well fuck you dude. If you just realized she wasyour mate and became nicer to her then you could bone and be happy. But nooooooooooo

Lately the demons seemed to be the only rational people.

The demons fucking know what's going on here too.

Because who didn’t love coming while staring into the eyes of their enemy? Normal people.

“I-have-the-ability-to-make-people-forget-things-if-they-look-into-my-eyes.”

Wait..... Is she the reason Aran doesn't remember Lothaire giving up his eye for her?

Losing your ability to speak was painful, but having the ability and being unable to use it was torture.

Why can't he talk? Does he kill people with his voice like black bolt?

If she’d just calm down, I could take care of her. Fuss over her. Make sure nothing harmed her ever again. I’d protect her from the world if she just let me.

I find this whole chapter sad and horrifying ... i never want it to end.

Sometimes I felt like the worst Revered in history. Like I was playing a role I couldn’t fulfill.

BECAUSE YOU SIR ARE THE OTHER PROTECTOR AND ARABELLA IS THE REVERED. jesus. Do i have to figure everything out for them?

In a moment of lucidity, I panicked over the fact that I couldn’t find a single pair of underwear.

Dude someone is obviously taking your panties.

“You don’t get to leave my side.”

Okay why is this guy being al possessive and shit then trying to pretend he's NOT possessive and shit?

I telepathically told him I wished I were adopted.

He's trying girl. Cut him some slack.

It was still one of the great mysteries of the realms how my darling Sadie had seen the psychotic snake bastard and thought, That one’s mine, I love him.

Because he's perfect.

“For her punishment, the gods order Arabella to have penetrative intercourse with her legion mate John on the field until completion. Now.”

WHAT.

Even the kings had nothing to say. And it felt… Like everything had changed.

They're probably so mad. OR they could feel how much it hurt her?

I was being punished for what I’d done to John.

I think its because you slept with someone other than your mates...

Their opinions were like male thongs.

“You don’t want to know how we discovered it.”

I WANNA KNOW
