The Darkness Within Chapter 35 EJ
Third Person's POV Leo ran after his brother while the large bear shifter was left behind, shocked and confused. Leo banged on the bathroom door, begging his brother to open it. “Ollie, please answer me. Let me in so we can talk,” Leo said, but was met with silence. Leo frowned as he knocked on the door again. He jumped when a hand touched his shoulder. “Can I try?” EJ asked, and the Omega stepped aside.EJ stood in front of the door and paused before lifting his hand and knocking on the door twice.“Ollie, it's me, EJ. Can you open the door, please?” EJ asked, but just like Leo, he received no reply. “Ollie, I don't know everything you went through, but I would never hurt you. Please, let me in, sweetheart.”EJ’s heart began to beat faster when he heard Ollie unlock the door. A moment later, the door slowly creaked open. EJ’s eyebrows knit together when he doesn't see the Omega. He slowly steps into the bathroom, and when he peeks behind the door, his heart skips a beat when he

Third Person's POV EJ sat down in a wicker rocking chair on the patio. He thought for sure this was a dream. It had to be! After everything he'd been through, after all the packs he searched, after falling for this Omega just to realize he wasn't his, and now he suddenly is... Is this really happening? EJ keeps wondering if he's going to wake up alone. If this is just another elaborate dream that he's had one too many times. But when the Omega tickles his neck as he happily and eagerly scents himself against his scent gland, an act that screams loud and clear who he belongs to, It causes his breath to stutter and his eyes to close as his head dips to the Omega's neck and kisses it. His heart swells when he feels a shiver run through his Omega. The touch of his lips works its magic through the magical thing called the mate bond.It felt surreal to finally press his lips to this beautiful little Omega as much as he wanted instead of limiting himself to his head, forehead, or cheek onc

Third Person's POV “So, does this mean you're moving to this pack?” Anders asked.“What? Why would you ask that?”“Well, because his identical twin and their triplet brother live in this pack. I highly doubt Ollie is going to want to leave his triplet brothers. Especially not after what he just went through.” Anders said, and EJ looked down. “I. I never thought of that. I didn't plan on moving. I mean, I finally got my dream position! It took me forever to become a captain. I worked so hard for that… shit! I didn't think of that.” The memory of his conversation with Anders won't stop playing in EJ's head, not even as he carries his sleepy and adorable mate up the stairs. He watches the Omega yawn and rubs his eyes before nuzzling his cheek with his nose. EJ's heart swelled. Could the Omega possibly be any cuter? The Alpha wondered. EJ stopped behind Xavier while he opened the door to the apartment. He caressed the Omega's back as he nuzzled his neck, and then followed Xavier down t

Third Person's POV Ryder's head snaps back, and blood sprays as his body flies backward before hitting the ground, knocking the wind out of him. It takes him a moment to recover enough to push himself off the ground. He wipes the blood from his face, breathing heavily as he takes his position again. The large Delta 1 shrugs his shoulders and takes position on the mat. Ryder counts to three, and the two charge each other. The retired Beta is too slow. The wounds he sustained and the fact that he can't stop thinking about her have worn him down. Everything goes dark momentarily as Ryder takes a blow to the temple. His body hits the ground, and he's disoriented.A whistle blows, stopping the Delta 1 before he kicks Ryder’s side. “That's enough, man. You're done for the day,” The Captain said as he and Marcus pulled Ryder to his feet. “I got him from here,” Marcus said as he pulled Ryder's arm over his shoulder, held onto his wrist with his left hand, and wrapped his right arm around t
Last Updated : 2024-12-03The Darkness Within Chapter 39 Her
Third Person's POV Her hand goes to his face and grips it as their tongues fight for dominance. She kicks her sandals off and climbs into the tub, straddling him. His hands slide down her waist, gripping and feeling as much of her as he could before his hands move to her ass and grip it, pulling her closer as he deepens the kiss. Tingle dances along their skin, and the pull to her is incredibly strong. Her kiss is delicious, and her scent is addictive. Her fingers thread through his hair and grip it, tugging, and he growls. Her hips roll as he sucks on her lip. He thrust against her as she pulled back and looked at him. His pupils are blown, and his eyes flicker back and forth between Ryder and Rex. His lips chase hers, and her lips tug up as she pulls back just out of reach. He growls as he grabs her ass, pulling her down as he thrusts up against her. He moves forward for her lips again, and just as they brush together, she pulls back, earning another growl. His fingers glide along

Third Person's POV Ryder took a quick shower, pulled his clothes on, and paused before opening his bedroom door. He closed his eyes and wondered what the hell had gotten into him. It wasn't just his wolf that was responsible for what just happened; he was too. He gave in to the pull and the feelings the temporary mark was causing him to have. He knew he only made it worse for himself and Vanessa. It may have curbed the strong urge and desire for each other now, but it was temporary. It didn't fix anything; it made it worse, strengthening the bond that was going to fade and making his desire for her stronger when it came back. Ryder exhaled and pushed all thoughts of Vanessa aside as he stepped out of his room and walked down the hall to find his daughter. “Hey, sweetheart,” Ryder said as he entered the kitchen and found Azalea with her head in the fridge, putting things away. “Oh my goodness, look at this stuff! This is a dragonberry! Can you believe how big this is? Oh, and look a

Third Person's POV “I am your enemy… I am the gatekeeper!This is why you and I can never be together,” Maverick said, and then his clothes tore as Shade came forward and shifted. Azalea gasped loudly, and her eyes widened as she scrambled backward and fell onto her butt. She looked at Shade in terror, unable to believe her eyes. His eyes look like flames, and it looks like the inside of his body was on fire. She could see fire beneath the fur. It was the brightest where the fur had parted. She watched in horror and could not move as the incredibly large beast approached, not stopping until he stood over her.It was so hard for Shade not to whimper and curl up next to her like a puppy. He struggled to stand tall and show his pretty little angel why they couldn't be together. Shade failed and lowered his head; a whimper slipped past the hellhound, and his eyes closed as he nuzzled her cheek. The fear that was coursing through Azalea disappeared at the sound of his whimper. Her eyes
Last Updated : 2024-12-06The Darkness Within Chapter 42 Why
Third Person's POV The late evening Sun setting behind the trees lit the sky with shades of red, orange, and yellow. The air was a little cooler against her skin than the previous nights as they stood on the balcony. Maverick noticed the goosebumps on her arm and moved to stand behind her. He wrapped his arms around his Angel and allowed his head to dip to her neck. He took a deep breath in of her amazing scent and wondered if this was really happening. Is he really going to allow her in? Is he finally going to be happy? Maverick took another breath in of her scent before pressing his lips to her skin, kissing her neck and sending a shiver down her spine. “Little angel, are you sure? There's still time,” Maverick asked. He found it hard to believe she still wanted him after finding out he was a hellhound. He thought the angel would reject him then and there. He thought she would expose him and have him kicked out, never to see her again. But she didn't reject him, and she didn't exp

The Darkness Within Chapter 74 Other Details
Kyle's POV My parents were gone by the time we came out of my room. It was kind of nice to have the entire apartment alone. It made me realize that it's time to move out. Unlike higher ranks who move out as soon as they turn 18, Omegas tend to stay at home with their parents until they find a mate. Higher ranks desire and thrive being alone, but Omegas don't. It's lonely and depressing. We thrive with the company of others. We need that interaction and affection. Without it, we become depressed, our health declines, and we become weaker. The thought of moving out and living with Kevin sent a whole new wave of excitement through me. I couldn't stop talking as I moved throughout the kitchen, preparing our lunch. I was talking to Kevin about one thing, but my brain couldn't stop thinking about living with him. I began to wonder if this is what it'll feel like every day. Him sitting there at the counter watching me while I prepared our meals. That thought sent another wave of exciteme
The Darkness Within Chapter 73 This is real
Third Person's POV Azalea steps out of the bathroom, refreshed with clean panties. She finds Maverick lying on the bed with his hands behind his head, staring at the ceiling. The familiar scent of smoke fills her nose the closer she gets to the bed. Her heart clenches, and she exhales when she sees fire burning in his eyes. She knew she could wave her hands in front of his face, and he wouldn't see them. Whatever he is thinking about, that's where he is, and all he sees.She sighs before crawling onto the bed and lying down on top of him. Her hand rested on his face, and his eyes rapidly blinked, pushing whatever he was thinking of out of his head and coming back to her. When his eyes land on her, he feels guilty. She looks sad and concerned. He couldn't help it. The gate is constantly calling to him, and when she's not there, it becomes louder and consuming. “I'm sorry, my little angel. I will tell you when the time is right,” He said softly, and his head lifted off the pillow a
The Darkness Within Chapter 72 The call of the gate
Third Person's POV Azalea presses her lips into a thin line as she looks from her book and watches her mate. He's been different since he came back from Mike's pack. He seems distant and always lost in thought, just as he is now. The book he was reading rested in his lap as he stared out at the sky. She wishes she knew what he was thinking. Every time she asks, he tells her nothing and says he was just zoning out. She can tell it was a lie. The way he looks when he's staring off into space, she can tell he's deep in thought. The way his muscles twitch around his eyes, and the way, at times, she can see fire swirling in those eyes. She's even caught the faint scent of smoke rolling off of him once or twice. “Is everything okay?” Azalea asked when Maverick set his book down and stood. “Yes, I just need some air,” Maverick said, kissing her head and stepping onto the balcony. Maverick takes a deep breath in through his nose to clear his senses. He places his hand on the railing and
The Darkness Within Chapter 71 Meant to be
Third person's POV “Mine!” Kyle whispered through tears, and Kevin's heart soared. He had dreamed of this moment for over 16 years. When the Omega walked into his lab almost a week ago, he was struck by his beauty. His creamy pale skin was flawless, and his green eyes stood out against it. The way his dark chocolate hair had a slight curl and rested against his forehead made his light green eyes stand out even more. There was something about the Omega that drew him in. The more he got to know him, the harder he fell. He wasn't just a beautiful Omega. He was incredibly smart and intelligent. He had a smile that could light up the room, and the way he constantly blushed in his presence drove his wolf wild. He stumbled over his words so cutely and squirmed under his gaze. At first, Kevin thought it was simply an Omega reaction to his rank and position. He never thought this amazing little Omega who belonged to the royal family would ever be interested in him, but he was. The Delta 1 m
The Darkness Within Chapter 70 Hidden
Kyle's POV My cheeks felt hot as I turned to look at Kevin, but I melted when I saw the smile on his face. His hand again touched my face, but this time, instead of watching his fingers, he watched me, as if looking for my reaction to his touch. His touch felt amazing, and I closed my eyes and leaned into it. “I don't know what to think. You kissed me. You took my first kiss, but then said you couldn't do this. I don't want to hurt you, but you're hurting me,” I said once the back door shut behind Lucian as he stepped inside to grab lemonade.I swore I heard Kevin's heart skip a beat when I spoke. I looked up, wanting to look at him to see if I could figure out which part of what I said had caused that. Unfortunately, I couldn't tell. His eyes rapidly moved across my face with a greater look of wonder.“I… Y-you've never kissed anyone before?” He asked, and I felt my cheeks become warm. Of everything I said, that is what he got stuck on and caused that reaction…I looked down and sho
The Darkness Within Chapter 69 I can't do this
Kyle's POV I could tell my parents wanted to know the extent of my assault but were afraid to ask, and I'm glad they didn't. I don't like to think about it, let alone talk about it. At times, I can still feel their disgusting hands on me, touching in places they shouldn't have. I can feel the rogue between my legs, and it makes my skin crawl. I woke up screaming last night and scared my dad. I hated seeing the sadness in his eyes and the look that told me he knew all too well what I was experiencing, and he did. They wanted me to take the day off, but I didn't want to. Work is therapeutic for me, and I love what I do. I didn't stop by his room this morning to walk into work together like we usually do. I wanted some time alone with my thoughts and hoped to finish some work before he showed up. I know it'll be hard for me to focus on anything but him once he does.I was nose-deep in work when the door opened, and Kevin walked in. I didn't lift my head right away, but when I did, I r
The Darkness Within Chapter 68 I think it's best
Kyle's POV I woke up to the sound of a TV quietly playing and fingers combing through my hair. Kevin's scent was strong, and I didn't smell the sterile scent of a hospital room any longer. I hummed as I nuzzled against him before opening my eyes to look at my surroundings. His hand moved to my back as I opened my eyes and looked around. When I did, I realized we weren't in the hospital room where I fell asleep; we were in his bedroom at the packhouse.I lifted my head to look at Kevin, and his hand moved to my cheek, caressing it as his eyes swept over my face. “You're finally awake,” He said softly, his eyes landing on mine and causing my heart to flutter before beating faster.I couldn't believe I was in his bedroom, in his bed, and in his arms. I wanted to pinch myself. It had to be a dream! “I-I am… how long have I been asleep?” I was confused. How did we get here? I can feel his broken arm against my back, and I don't feel the cast. When did it come off? Where's the swelling
The Darkness Within Chapter 67 Wanting him
Kyle's pov “Don't worry, his wolf is strong. He was already healing him by the time the other doctor and I began working on him after the x-rays. He lost a lot of blood, but by the time we were able to get blood into him, he only needed 1 liter. We were able to fix his arm. His wolf is quite impressive. While we were setting the bones, he was trying to heal them. He's in a cast. At the rate his wolf is healing, it should be able to come off tomorrow. He has stitches on both of his sides and his back. His body will probably push them out by tonight as he finishes healing. If there are any stitches remaining when he comes in to have his cast removed, we'll remove those, too. Don't worry; he'll be okay. For the wounds he sustained, he's doing great!” The doctor said before leading the Alpha away to talk to him privately. I didn't waste another second; I raced into the room and had to stop myself from leaping onto the bed with him. My chest tightened when I saw Kevin lying in a hospit
The Darkness Within Chapter 66 A moment alone
Kyle's POV I sprinted out of the woods; my body still ached, even though most of the external wounds were healed. As soon as I cleared the tree line, I saw Kevin limping toward us. I don't know what it was about seeing him, but everything that happened and almost happened came flooding back, and the emotional toll of it all broke free, hitting me like a ton of bricks. My lip trembled as I struggled to keep my emotions under control, but it was harder than I thought, and tears immediately rolled down my face. I saw the relief on his face, and when he said my name and tried to hobble faster, the dam broke, and I began crying as I ran faster. I was careful not to knock him over, but still collided with him. His good arm immediately wrapped around me, and his head dipped to my neck. His body froze before trembling… He must have smelled them all over me. One of them jacked off and came on me as the others tried to get me hard and rape me.“I'm sorry! I… I couldn't get away. I-I tried to
