Iris:It took everything in me to keep the blush from forming on my cheeks as Alvize ran his thumb over my fingers before he let go and proceeded with his driving. He parked the car at the cemetery before the two of us recomposed ourselves and proceeded with what we had to do. The last thing that the two of us needed was a distraction right now, especially since we knew that we couldn’t afford it.“Can I ask what we are looking for again? I understand that he ‘emerged’ from his grave, but we already cleared that part here.” I said, and he shook his head, making me frown in confusion.“Yes, we did clear that part, but there is more to this that I want to see. A body doesn’t just come out of its grave without leaving a trace, and considering the fact that his sister was buried by his side, if Ianos wanted revenge over Annalise, why didn’t he just bring her back, why Killian?” He asked, and I frowned in confusion. “Annalise was his lover and the mother of the child, Konstantin; therefo
Alvize: “This isn’t the mansion.” Elena stated, and I nodded. “I said that I was going to take you to my house, but I never specified that it was going to be the mansion.” I said, and she frowned in confusion as I parked the car. “The penthouse would give the two of us a little more privacy, and considering the fact that I am sure that you would need to calm down after what happened earlier, I figured a private place would be more adequate.” I opened the car door and got out, frowning when she stayed in the car for a few seconds before opening the door for herself. She got out of the car, and I couldn’t help but fight the urge of claiming here and now after the kiss. The mating bond was growing stronger by the day, and now that I got a glimpse of what it would be like to feel her, I couldn’t help but want to claim her. But I knew that doing so could risk a lot, and that wasn’t something that I wanted. “I’m not going to eat you, Elena.” I said, motioning for her to follow me to th
Elena: I wrapped my arms around Alvize’s neck, pulling him close as he kissed me. He bit my bottom lip, stripping me out of my clothes as I felt him grinding against me, his cock growing harder with each move. I whimpered, growing wet for him, and he smirked, resting his forehead against my own as he took deep and slow breaths. He looked at me, studying my expression for a few seconds before leaning in to kiss me again. This time, his kiss was gentle, even loving, as if he was taking his slow time. My heart raced against my ribcage and I couldn’t help the low whimper that escaped me as I looked at the man who was treating me like I was a jewel that he didn’t want to break. He pulled away again and got up, slowly stripping off of his clothes. His cock hit his stomach, hard with need and want, but he seemed to be taking his time as he got on top of me, spreading my legs and settling between them. He didn’t move for a few minutes as he kept his eyes on mine, studying my expression
Alvize:I smiled when I woke up to find Elena laying in my arms, sleeping peacefully.Her chest rose and fell with each breath that she took, and her wolf seemed content, I knew that mine was. I slowly moved her a little to lay on the pillow before covering her with the blanket. She stirred in her sleep, but she thankfully wrapped the blanket a little tighter around her before curling up.I couldn’t help but chuckle at the sight before putting my boxers on and heading to the bathroom to freshen up. I knew that this didn’t mean that she wouldn’t be playing the role of cop on me. If anything, I knew that this was going to make working with her a little more complicated due to our different positions, and if she was working to get a promotion, then things were going to be a lot harder. But that wasn’t something that I wanted to think of right now. If anything, the two of us had a lot to tend to, and I knew that it wouldn’t be ending in a day or two just like the idiot of a boss wants i
Elena: “What are you doing?” I laughed, shaking my head at Alvize who was looking through my underwear drawer. He pulled out my red thong, and raised an amused eyebrow before I rolled my eyes and snatched it from him. “Out of my bedroom, Alvize.” “You were in mine last night and you didn’t find me complaining about going through my clothes.” He smirked, and I shook my head as I put the thong back inside the drawer. He pulled it out again, and walked toward the bag, putting it inside. “Alvize…” “We are going to make good use of it in LA.” He said, and I raised an eyebrow. “You seem to be confident that I would be sleeping with you in LA,” I stated and he smirked. He walked toward me and leaned in, pecking my lips. “You are lucky that I’m controlling myself enough not to take you here and on your bed, malyshka. The two of us are on a tight schedule, but we can make up for lost time on the plane.” He said, making my cheeks redden. He cupped my cheeks and deepened the kiss befo
Alvize:“What are we going to do when we get to LA anyway?” Elena asked, turning to face me as the plane took off.The two of us thankfully managed to get to the plane with no interruptions, and I was mostly thankful for the fact that no one called her. Her boss calling was not something that I wanted to deal with, especially since I knew that I didn’t want to keep in mind that she had a ‘fuck’ buddy at that station.Just thinking about it was annoying to me. The fact that she was my mate, and the fact that neither one of us rejected the other told me that we were giving things a chance, but I didn’t want to ruin that because of a prick who thought that he could get between us. “First, we’re going to settle at the hotel. I think that you won’t mind sharing the suite, or my bed.” I said, putting a hand on her thigh, gently squeezing it. “There will be a gala that the two of us will attend, the main event that we’re going to be at is the after party auction.” “Auction?” “You are goin
Elena:Alvize and I walked toward the airport, side to side, as I noticed that his affectionate side seemed to somewhat fade. The man wouldn’t even hold my hand or try to brush his finger against mine since we got outside the plane.However, I didn’t bother questioning his reasons. I wasn’t stupid, if the two of us had just admitted the fact that we were aware of the mating bond and yet were quiet; I knew that he had kept it from everyone else as well. “I take it that the two of you managed to get here safely.” Viktor taunted the second he caught sight of us. I didn’t bother looking at the men or taking a step forward as Alvize was greeted by them.“Is the car waiting out?” “No, we came riding horses.” Viktor said sarcastically. I had to fight back laughing at his response, but seeing my amused expression, the two other men smirked. “She has a sense of humor, that is something.” One of them said, crossing his arms over his chest. I raised an eyebrow at the man and Alvize turned to
Alvize:Elena stayed quiet through most of the ride to the hotel, and I knew why. She didn’t understand that there was no way that they were going to leave her to work as she wanted if she was to work by my side. The men followed the car back to the house yesterday, and I knew very well that someone followed us to the cemetery yesterday. It was one of the reasons why I refused to take her to the mansion.I knew that someone would be waiting for her there, and that was indeed the case. And that was something that she wouldn’t have allowed me to stop or control. At least, with her being far away from everything, I knew that I would be able to contain the whole topic. However, if she was there, in front of them, then she would have lost everything with no chance. Joseph had sent two of his teams to see whether or not she would come with me to the mansion, and the last thing that I wanted her to deal with was them after I kissed her. She wasn’t aware that someone was watching, and it wa
Alvize:I wrapped my arms around my mate whose eyes widened in surprise as we entered our room.She looked at me and raised an eyebrow as I pinned her against the wall for a few seconds before connecting my lips with hers.The two of us were currently staying at Ezra’s estate, mostly because Killian was also here and the fact that everything was just too messed up for us to leave for a while, we chose to comply with Maria and just stay until we have managed to settle most of our things.“What are you doing?” Elena asked and I smirked before connecting my lips with her neck, biting down her sweet spot before running my canines over the spot where I wanted to mark her. Her body heated, and I knew that her wolf told her what I wanted.“I believe that you know what I am going to do. But I will need you to either say yes or pull away. Because once we start, I am not going to be able to hold my self control any longer.” I said and she whimpered before nodding. Elena connected her lips with
Elena:“I take it that you are the sister.” Maria said, looking at Hana who avoided my eyes. The woman stood in her true form, not bothering to cover it from the human who stood beside Killian, making me smile as I looked at Alvize. He wrapped his arm around my waist and kissed the crown of my head, letting his lips linger there for a minute before he pulled away to look at both Hana and Killian. “Can I really speak to him?” She asked and Maria nodded. Her heart raced, and the woman could tell that her life was not going to be the same after this. To say the least, this was the last thing that she would have expected. But then again, I doubted that she would have believed anyone if they told her about this.The ground, which was black, turned white before a few stars flew around us. My heart raced and my eyes widened as I saw Drake’s picture forming in front of me. Tears fell from my eyes as he stood in front of us, his eyes meeting mine for a second before he turned to his sister.
Killian:“Are you sure that you don’t want us coming?” Elena asked, looking at me and I shook my head.This was one thing that I had to do on my own.I had done my own deeds in this world, and I knew that I had to start paying for them. To say the least, I owed it to the woman, regardless of not knowing her, for killing an innocent man that I knew nothing about. The man was a target of Ianos, just like everyone else, but I have never killed anyone in front of another person. If anything, I never allowed them to go through that pain and vision.“If she chooses to want me dead, then she can fire until she finds herself relaxing. I will heal as time goes.” I said, looking at Alvize to take his mate. The fact that they have yet to complete their mating was something that I respected and yet was surprised about.With everything that they have gone through, I would have expected it, but the fact that it didn’t happen told me that they had more in mind than they let out. I just chose not t
Elena:I frowned as I woke up to find myself in a room that I did not recognize. My heart raced and I sat up only to frown when a headache hit me faster than I thought that it would.“Easy, malyshka.” Alvize’s voice took me off guard before he rushed to my side as he wrapped his arm around my waist, pulling me to his chest. “You are in my room at Ezra’s estate, that is all.” His voice was content and relaxed, and though I didn’t know what happened, I knew that there would be a lot for him to tell me.“Ianos?” I asked and he smiled before nodding. He ran his finger over my waist for a second and I frowned when I realized that I had a bandage. “Your body was strong enough to fight off him trying to kill you.” He said, and I frowned. “Maria and Donatello came to us last minute…”“Donatello is alive?” I asked, my eyes tearing up and he nodded, smiling at me. Alvize didn’t even know the fear that I had in my chest as I thought that the demon tricked me into killing him. The idea of harm
Alvize:“Alvize, we are going to need to get out of here.” Donatello said, wanting me to leave. I shook my head as I kept my eyes on the door, knowing that Ezra wouldn’t be leaving either. The man knew that his wife was in there, and though they were arguing, the last thing that he would do was leave her at a time like this one. “You can leave if you want, I am not going to leave without her.” I said, glaring at the door before their shadows appeared.My eyes widened in surprise as I saw the hound rushing toward us. The ground beneath our feet shook as the place started crumbling, and I knew that it was the light of the scroll and blade. Whatever happened, I knew that my mate succeeded. Lia and Elena ran toward us but that wasn’t what surprised me. The Lycan, our brother, the man who was still considered our enemy, was with them, and both women were supporting him to ensure that he didn’t fall.I ran toward them and wrapped my arm around the Lycan who seemed to be injured as blood
Elena:I ran my finger through the scroll before putting it on my holster, surprised that it fit perfectly.The thing kept shrinking and growing depending on where it would be going.I looked at Alvize and Ezra, their eyes were fixed on the demon as Lia stood behind him, trying to find a right angle to hit him. I needed them out of here to kill the demon, it would be the only way to do it. Them being here was going to affect their lives and that wasn’t something that I wanted.“What the fuck are you waiting for?” Killian asked, catching my attention. Tears fell from my eyes before I could stop them and he frowned in confusion before shaking his head.“If I open these scrolls, everyone here dies,” I said, including him as well. I didn’t know how much of the demon blood he had, and the man frowned in confusion. “Killian, only Lia and I would be able to get out of this, and I need you to leave to be able to fight off the demon.”“You are saving me?” He asked and I rolled my eyes as he ch
Alvize:Elena’s eyes met mine and I could tell by her expression that something was going wrong. My beauty was not able to react, and that was something that I could tell. Her hand wasn’t moving despite the demon’s tight grip, and considering the fact that she was bleeding, I was surprised that she wasn’t reacting. “I said a word, Ianos.” Donatello said, glaring at the demon who laughed.“As if that means anything or has ever meant anything to me?” He asked, mocking the man who let out a low growl. He chuckled and shook his head at him. “Have you forgotten the fact that I do not give a fucking damn about a word that you say? I never have, therefore, why should I now?” He asked, glaring at him. Donatello’s eyes avoided ours as he listened to the demon who was taunting him. I had to fight back frowning at his underline meaning, and the fact that Donatello seemed to tense told me that there was a lot to the man that we didn’t know. “I believe that you chose to hide your reign of dark
Elena:“Lia, keep the key with you.” I said, and she frowned in confusion as I handed it to her. Whatever the keys were for, I didn’t want to end up losing them in front of the demon, and him seeing them, regardless of me not knowing what they were going to do, was not something that I wanted.“What if you need them?” She asked and I shook my head.“I doubt that I would with the demon. But I think that you would. If they do lock you in, or if something happens to me, use them, or try to at least. I don’t know what they are good for, but I am sure that they would be counting for something if Killian chose to give them to me.” I said and she frowned.“And you’re trusting Killian?” She asked and I shook my head.“I am not, but I don’t have a choice but to believe that something that he’s given us might come of good use. To say the least, I will hold onto the idea of him having a source of humanity somewhere.” I said and she frowned but nodded.“I’m sorry for misjudging you,” she said, ta
Alvize:“Why would we trust that you don’t mean us any harm?” I asked, shaking my head at Killian who sighed as we got out of the car. Donatello was quiet throughout most of the ride, whether it was the plane or car, and I knew that it could have been due to the reason that he was with the child of a mating of his wife.That was something that I knew he didn’t like, but he also knew that he couldn’t change the facts. The man was born, died, and was alive again. We just had to deal with the facts regardless of whether or not we liked them. Plus, there was the fact that I couldn’t find myself accepting that he was helping my mate without anything in return.“Because I never asked you to trust me. If anything, I think that you are stupid for doing so.” Killian said, looking at me. Donatello nodded at the bouncer to let us inside the club and Killian looked at him. “I believe that you are the one person who knows where the door is. You might not be talking about it, but such doors aren’t
