Alvize:“I take it that she is our Luna,” Viktor stated, smirking at me.I had to fight back rolling my eyes at his statement. The fact that she was upset was something that I understood, but I had to admit, I couldn’t help but feel bothered about it.“Yes, and I suggest that no one pressures her because of it. She is annoyed enough as it is right now, and the last thing that I need is for her to have a breakout on me.” I said, glaring at the men who nodded. They knew not to cross their limits with their Alpha’s Luna, it wasn’t something that I needed to warn them about. I knew that they would protect her with their lives whether or not she was one. The fact that she was a woman that they could tell I was growing affectionate towards was enough.I walked into the lobby and sat on one of the chairs, knowing that I needed to calm down. The fact that she was angry was something, but the fact that she left being as angry was what bothered me. Viktor sat by my side, not saying a word, as h
Elena: I sat on the couch, getting lost in my thoughts, as I considered what Alvize just told me. I put my finger on my bottom lip, thinking, my heart racing, and my chest aching as I couldn’t help but feel both confused and guilty. The man was my mate, and that wasn’t something that I wanted to let go of. Finding him was luck enough for me, and that wasn’t something that I wanted to lose. Alvize’s bedroom door opened, and he frowned when he saw that I was still sitting on the couch. He walked toward me and got on his knees in front of me, giving me a gentle smile. “I take it that my malyshka didn’t choose a dress to wear” “How are you this calm when I am going through the conflict of my life?” I asked, shaking my head at the man who smiled. He took both my hands in his and brought them to his lips, gently kissing my knuckles. “The conflict itself means that the feelings that we both have are mutual and that is something for me to hold onto. Plus, the two of us talking the way th
Alvize: “Thank you,” I heard Elena say as I entered the living room. I couldn’t help but smile at the fact that she chose to wear the blue dress that I chose. The dress was strapless, tight around her breasts, and loosened around her thighs. The slit reached her left thigh, and her golden heels matched the golden belt that was on it. Her makeup gave her more light and vibrancy in her expression. Her eyes met mine and she smiled before taking a step forward. I did imagine how she would look, but I couldn’t help but admire how gorgeous she looked. It was even more beautiful than I had anticipated. “How do I look?” She asked, her cheek reddening as she saw my expression. “Fucking gorgeous.” I whispered, tucking a strand of her curled hair behind her right ear. She wore a pair of earrings that she didn’t seem to ever take off. I never did ask why she didn’t, but I wanted her to wear something that I got her. “If you’re done, you can leave.” I said, wrapping my arm around my mate’
Elena: I looked down at the ring that hugged my finger perfectly. Alvize had his arm wrapped around me as the two of us entered the lobby of the gala where Viktor, Artur, and Nikolay smirked at us. I personally had to fight back rolling my eyes in response before Alvize unwrapped his arm and took my hand in his, intertwining our fingers. “Alpha, Luna,” Nikolay said, nodding at the two of us. I looked at Alvize who smirked and squeezed my hand gently, not wanting me to say anything otherwise. Just the fact that he was letting me know that he was accepting me as a Luna, and that his pack was too, made my heart swell as I felt like I belonged somewhere rather than being an outcast. “Almost everyone is here, boss.” Viktor said, and Alvize nodded. I frowned in confusion but he simply squeezed my hand in response. “They will be asking questions about who Elena is.” “There’s nothing for them to ask questions about.” Alvize said, looking at his beta. “She is my wife, and that is how t
Alvize: “Brother,” Ezra said, smiling at me. I got up from the couch and greeted the man before smiling at Lia. She smiled back at me, her smile brighter than it had been a in a while despite knowing that she was worried about the whole Killian thing. I couldn’t blame her, if anything, she knew that the bastard would come at her first, and that was something that we didn’t want to risk. She looked at Elena for a second before raising an eyebrow at me, her expression clearly amused. She knew about me finding my mate, but she was yet to meet Elena, but I knew that she wouldn’t leave Elena until she got some gossip from her. I just hoped that she didn’t end up driving the woman insane. I wrapped my arm around Lia, hugging her before she nodded at Elena. I knew to introduce both despite her knowing Ezra, I knew that Lia wanted her to feel welcome, and if anything, I had to admit that I wanted it for her as well. The last thing that I wanted her to feel was out of place, especially when
Elena:I frowned as I looked down at my hand. The whole place was packed with people, some were ordering their drinks, others were mingling about. And I couldn’t help but worry about how things were going to go if this was how the night started. The vision of my parents dying flashed in my head as if the memory was vivid. And for a second, it felt like it just happened. The heat that I felt was one that I couldn’t understand, and my chest ached.“Elena?” Alvize said, breaking the train of my thoughts. I didn’t turn to face him, I didn’t want him to read my pain in my eyes. It scared me what he would think if he did. “Malyshka, what’s going on?”I shook my head before taking a deep breath. I clenched and unclenched my fist before forcing myself to relax. He couldn’t have been the one behind their deaths. “The Lycan, who is that man?” I asked and he frowned. Alvize sat by my side and took my hand in his, trying to understand what was bothering me. I slowly removed my hand from his an
Alvize: I watched as Elena walked out of the hall toward me, her eyes as hard as stone, making me frown in confusion. Her heart raced against her chest, and I could tell that she was not only annoyed but she seemed broken, and that was not something that I was used to about her, especially since I knew that despite all the pain that she could be in, she was one to always mask her expression. Her revealing her pain was something that she was against, and I somewhat understood her reason, the last thing that she needed was for someone to hold her pain against her. I wrapped an arm around her waist in an attempt to get her to smile, wanting to lean in to kiss her, but she didn’t react. “Elena?” “Alvize, please get me out of this place before I start saying or doing things that I know I am going to regret.” She said, looking me dead in the eye. I frowned in confusion at her response but nodded and guided her toward the car. Her heart raced against her ribcage, and I didn’t need to
Elena: I knew that my eyes were harder than they have ever been as I walked out of the car, feeling the heavy weight of the whole world settling on my chest as my heart burned with pain and anger. Alvize’s response was not one that I expected, especially when I thought that it was something that he wanted. How fucking naïve of me to believe that he was being honest? The fucking Pakhan… I didn’t even want to enter the hotel, and that was something that Alvize knew. “Elena, stop.” Alvize said, wrapping his arms around my waist, stopping me from taking a step forward. I glared at the man and pushed him back, taking him off guard, and I could tell that his mates who just stopped their car frowned at what they just saw. “Elena, just give me a minute to listen…” “Do not touch me,” I said, glaring daggers at him. I didn’t even care that people were looking at us or that he was growing more frustrated. Most just walked by, choosing to ignore us, while others slowed their paces to see whe
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
