casteel gives off such klaus mikaelson vibes
‘“But then you insulted her. You made her flinch, and then you threatened her. I will not forget that.”
Whatever Landell was about to say ended in a gurgle as Casteel’s right arm thrust forward.
“And I will not be able to forgive you.”’

really just pulled his heart out
‘there was a hint of a smile on Casteel’s lips as he leaned toward me. “There is no side of you that is not as beautiful as the other half. Not a single inch isn’t stunning.” His lashes lifted, and the intensity in his stare held me captive.’
“If you’re looking for a fight...” came a voice that sent a shiver down my spine and then over my skin. My head jerked in the direction of the sound. “You’ll fight me, Princess.”
“Hmm?” His lips hovered over the spot where my pulse fluttered wildly. “Your penchant for violence isn’t anything to be ashamed of. Not with me. Haven’t I told you it turns me on?”
“One too many times,” I said, pushing off the ground and against Casteel. I felt him against (1/3)
me for a brief moment, felt the proof of his words. The tight throbbing response to the knowledge made me question my sanity.
Casteel hadn’t expected the move, and he slipped to the side—or msybe he was just humoring me. Probably the latter. Either way, I scrambled to my (2/3)
knees and turned on him, throwing a wild punch.
Casteel caught my hand. “Then I guess it would be repetitive of me to tell you how much you’re turning me on now?”
“That and how incredibly disturbing it is.” (3/3)

pLs cAsteel is fucking h4rd right now from them fighting????
‘He lifted his mouth from mine, his eyes nearly luminous as he stared down into my wide ones. “But we will have that conversation later,” he promised, thrusting the sword into my hand. “Make me feel incompetent and kill more than me, Princess.”
“I’ll try to escape again.”
“I figure as much.”
“I’m not going to stop fighting you.”
“I wouldn’t want you to.”
Casteel prowled in as if he had every right to do so. He halted the moment he saw me and what I held, sighing heavily. Closing the door behind him, he was wise enough to not take his gaze off me. “Poppy,” he started. “As you know, it’s been a long day and night. And while I’m rel
ieved to see that you didn’t manage to evade Delano, and despite that I think you look rather adorable in that gown, holding that tiny, little knife-“
I threw the blade, aiming for his head just like he’d told me to do so.
Stepping aside, Castel snatched the weapon out of the air
‘Loosening the collar of his tunic, he tsked softly. “Poppy, you wound me. In my heart,” he said, placing his hand over his chest. “Again.”
“Don’t whine. You’ll heal. Again,” I snapped. “Unfortunately.”
“But I have nothing to gain from lies now. I have what I want. You.”
“You do not have me.”
One side of his lips curled up. “We’ll have to agree to disagree on that. Ask me something, Princess. Ask me anything, and I will tell you the truth.”
“But just so you know, if you want my lips on any piece of you, I’m more than willing to appease you.”
My mouth dropped open.
“And my willingness to comply extends to my hands, my fingers, and my c0 ck—“
“Oh, my gods,” I cut him off. “You don’t have to worry about that.”
tw // sa , sexual assault

was casteel sexually assaulted???
“You’re not just a pawn to me, Poppy.”
“Don’t lie,” I told him, my heart squeezing. “That’s not doing either of us any favors.”
He opened his mouth and then closed it, seeming to rethink what he’d been about to say.
‘An arm snagged me around the waist. I swallowed a squeak of surprise as I was pulled down. For the second time, I found myself in Casteel’s lap.
So focused on the book, I hadn’t even seen him sitting on the settee I’d walked past. I twisted toward him, ignoring the jump in (1/2)
my pulse as heavy, hooded, amber eyes met mine. “Was that necessary?”
“Always,” he replied, his arms loose around me as several men filled out of the room, their gazes trained forward as if they didn’t dare look in my direction.’
