A scribe to an emperor who moonlights as a Guardian has Ariadne confused and anything but neutral.
Ariadne loves calligraphy, the pen and ink meeting paper and the strange rituals that go with it. It gives her a focus and a reason to move forward, day by day. The rituals move her along, and it is her skill with the pen that gets her into the Volunteer Program.

Usorn has led his people for years, but he needs an heir and a woman who is genetically neutral is his only option. If she can double as a scribe, it is a win-win situation. Views: 51

It was raw and demanding, and she loved it. She was obsessed by it. Putting a stop to Derek's kiss didn't even cross her mind, the kiss claiming her in a way that Jaike was no longer herself. She was simply his. Derek's tongue thrust in and out of her mouth, mating with her tongue, and she could have died for the sensations that his deep and masterful kiss churned out. His kiss demanded, and she yielded. His lower body pushed against her, and she pushed back without thinking, loving the pulsing heat of Derek's hard length. The next thing she knew Derek had jumped away from her, and the glare in his eyes made Jaike gaze back at him in hurt confusion. "You're so fucking confusing you're driving me crazy!" he growled. "You're so fucking confusing, too," she half-screamed, unable to understand how Derek could be so mad after the kiss they had shared. "What do you want from me?""You know what I fucking want. It's you who doesn't fucking know what you goddamn want!" Derek took a challenging step towards her, his chest shaking with every ragged breath he took. "Tell me, Jaike. Does this fucking mean you'll leave him? Are you mine now?" His words worked like a bucket of cold water thrown at her. Oh God, oh God, oh God. What had she done? "What's it going to be this time, Jaike?" Views: 51
