"Katherine is staying here," I clarified as they both looked at me with concern, but fuck it. I was the one going, I get to choose who I take. Aydin needed to learn to temper his temper and Katherine needed to learn that sometimes duty comes before mates. Maybe I'm feeling particularly jaded about it right now, but Aydin was a strong fighter and his senses were almost as good as ours. I trusted him to watch my back, watch our surroundings.
One of the guards brought out a platter of food, fully stacked and set it in front of Nixon who sat up at the little patio table and dug in.
"Where did you go?" Linden snarled.
Nixon always ate three times his body weight after lots of flashing around so I'd requested they have it ready for him. He did me a huge favour i

ALICE 'It's Finn's head,' Nixon's words floated through me as Linden alerted the pack to go into lockdown. They'd practiced this over and over growing up. Everyone was to be indoors, those who were able to fight would stand guard just inside their doors, where some houses were equipped with special lights to flip on if needed. First and foremost they were supposed to make it to the bunker under their house, turning off all of the lights and remaining silent until one of us told them otherwise. We were prepared and the lights surrounding us would keep the Vamps out. Those red eyes never left me, locked in and ravenous like we had a personal vendetta, and now, now we do. I might disagree with Linden on so

ALICE Marcy’s back was pressed to the Vamp’s chest where he was holding her tightly and Linden's rage was so uncontrollable that it radiated through our bond making my whole body feel like it was constricting in on itself. Her eyes were shut tightly as silent tears streamed from them, her face and chest were covered in blood, but her heart was still beating and that was the only thing rendering Linden motionless. That and the distance between them. If he moved, the Vamp would kill her for sure before he ever had a chance to save her. Everything seemed to happen at once. Linden’s call for Nixon, sent to every warrior, was only three words in and barely enough time to blink between the moment I laid eyes on her and the moment the Vamps teeth sunk into her. Her sof

ALICEOnyx laid me down beside Linden. His presence, something I couldn’t face when I knew what was coming.My bones were healing almost instantly - being an heir and having the Moon Goddess’s blood running through you came with benefits as much as it did curses.A loud crack radiated through me as Onyx reset my bones, the cracks that followed paled in comparison to the damage done to my heart, my lifeline, my existence. As I regained movement of my legs the disapproval on his face landed on where Lucius bit me.‘It’ll heal,’ I tried to reassure Onyx, hoping it was true because leaving Onyx alone wasn’t an option, but his scowl only deepened as he turned his attention from my leg to Linden. His eyes were staring at the

ALICE It was my turn to cry. The tears spilled over as I tried to recognize my insanity. Lub Dub. Amara was too weak to search for where it was coming from, whose heartbeat I was picking up on as I tried to cling to anything that would make this true. Lub dub. Lub dub. Lub- “Open your eyes volcano,” Nixon’s sweet demand had me wanting to give him what he needed. When I opened my eyes to find his, the lightness of them was almost blinding in comparison to Onyx’s. “Tell me I’m not crazy.” A look flashed between us and before we could blink we were both down on Linden’s chest. We laid on either side of him, our ear’s pressed tightly to his bare skin with our breath h

ALICE “She’s turning Alice,” Bellamy’s eyes glowed a bit brighter, “I can scent a Freshling anywhere, it’s faint, but-” “No,” I shook my head, falling to my knees with her still in my arms, “you’re just smelling the Vamp on her, he could have been-” “It’s not,” Aydin half growled as he went to take Marcy from me but Amara surged forwards, a growl ripping from us that had him halting his movements. I screamed for Nixon out loud, my voice desperate and cracking as my vocal cords cut out, refusing to work as my whole body was trying to reserve what we could to defend ourselves and the Luna. The door shattered against the wall as he flung it out of his way to get to me, his black eyes meeting my desperate ones after he surveyed the room for threats.

NIXON The heat and Nixon’s chocolate scent assured me that he was still alive, but the lack of two heartbeats was enough to startle me awake. Alice was gone. ‘Where are you?’ I reached for her over the link. ‘With Maddy,’ she responded immediately and Declan cleared his throat from the side of the room. ‘She doesn’t look well still, she barely slept a few hours,’ he linked me, clearly not wanting to chance Alice hearing our conversation. ‘You’ve been out for most of the day, nightfall is in a few hours,’ he proactively answered my next question, which meant that crying was almost as draining on me as rebirthing was. ‘What was wrong with her? What is wrong with her?’

NIXON “What are you doing?” I asked Alice when she looked at me like she knew I was there the whole time, her thick scent hanging in the air, more potent than it usually is, “Is that your-” “Yes,” she interrupted, “Marcy needs it to survive now, Nixon.” “You’ve already lost enough,” I hissed, taking the time to really look at her and Declan was right. She looked paler, had bags under her eyes, and reacted slower than normal. We’ve never been sick, part of the shifter charm I suppose, but that's how she looked now. Sick. Onyx was scratching at the surface to be let loose, even though Marcy was Linden’s mate and he understood she needed it to survive, the fact that she was drinking Alice’s blood was boiling his. Marcy looked better, and she was technically dead.

ALICE “Just because you couldn’t survive out there, doesn’t mean I can’t,” Jerrika was arguing with the guards as I approached, “I’m allowed to leave.” “Jerrika, I can’t let you go out there, your dad-” “My dad is dead,” she said, a little too emotionless for a nine-year-old with a baby on her hip. Her back stiffened once she sensed my presence, standing taller as she prepared to face me. “Jerrika, what’s going on?” I looked down at her as I linked some of the mothers I knew had recent babies, ‘I’d like someone willing to nurse another to meet me at the main gate.’ “I’m not a prisoner, am I?” She asked so matter-of-factly with no hint of aggression and I knew what it was like to hide all of your emotions, she must be exha

ALICE **6 months later** Sebastian held me from behind, sitting up on the bed with his hands carefully tucked under mine, holding Tiernan up to feed as I slept against his chest. It always woke me, but it was adorable that he tried to let me sleep through the feedings. His lips lazily grazed my shoulder and neck, sensing I was awake, as Rian’s stronger scent announced his arrival with the sweet notes of fruit. 'Always scanning my thoughts for movements,' I teased, and when I opened one eye slightly to look at him, he was standing there with a smug smile on his face, not caring in the least. I looked down at our little greedy bundle of love and with each look, somehow the pain of the longest pregnancy in life subsided.

NIXON **6 months later** Rest in peace, Ian. You had a nice life. A fine life. One you clearly don't value too much when you're trying to argue with the woman carrying your offspring and my mate. A strong shiver crept up my spine at the thought. Nope. Even I'm not that crazy. "She does what she wants," Bridget announced, the rose notes in her scent rising as if to remind you that in her beauty is also thorns. My mate was correct, even in her oddly robotic

NIXON Alice's hand was tucked into mine, her other arm reaching across her body as she pressed into my side and lazily stroked my arm. This was the conversation I'd been waiting for since my parents left. Linden was standing on my other side, his arm pressed up against me as he showed his version of support. He wasn't as outwardly affectionate as Alice, and while he hardly initiated contact, he also wouldn't stop me if I reached for his hand right now. Their mates had given us this moment alone, Mountain and Ian were learning to give Alice some space the more they were here, but they never went far, always hovering in the background like she'd disappear if they took their eyes off of her. Well, she might. But it was drawi

LINDEN I still can’t believe the giant monster curled up casually outside of the house. Alice has been home for over two weeks, which was also so unheard of that I was beginning to wonder if I was dreaming. The blue scales on his body rippled as his lungs expanded, the horns coming back from his face shaking a bit as he seemingly got comfy and pups crawled all over him. They were sliding down his tail, where Sebastian and Nixon were on watch in case they needed to flash to catch anyone who fell off. Patient, yes his beast was that. Careful, cautious, really any kind of safe, he was not. ‘I don’t think I ever want to leave,’ Alice leant her head on my shoulder and I wrapped my hand around her as we watched them and she ate some… kale? She’s always eat

ALICE Rian's knot was nestled into me, the feeling of just how much it stretched me out being accentuated by the way my body was stretched up, slightly tugging at my entrance. My hands were tied together with a soft silky type of fabric that looped through a ring on the ceiling as Sebastian circled around me. He flashed to deliver little nips of his fangs all over my body, while Rian laid back and watched us like we were his entertainment. Sebastian loved knot time almost as much as I did... this was his time to take my submission that he craved freely. Rian let me play with Sebastian alongside him once, and oh was his perfect ass red, but I preferred handing the control over to them. He continued to edge me until I was a vibrating mess, begging him to let me find my

LINDEN Later that day, after a well-deserved nap, I came back out to check on Nixon but found Alice’s mates sitting in front of his fire with her. She was sitting backwards on Rian’s lap as he sat cross-legged on the ground and sideways to the fire. Her cheek was resting on his shoulder and her face pointed in the direction of the fire, although it didn't surprise me that she would be keeping an eye on Nixon. What did surprise me was when I rounded her and her eyes were closed. Was little volcano finally sleeping? She hardly ever slept when Nixon rebirthed, only admitting defeat after several days if his episodes lasted long enough. Al was always afraid that she would miss something, that he would wake without her and she wanted us to be the first thing he saw when he did.

LINDEN Terran confirmed his support of the two coupling and offered to help build Nixon a nest, but it had to be me and Alice, no one else ever has, or ever should, although we did allow him to construct a platform the nest would go on top of for us to be able to carry it easier. Once Ayana was let go, she left with Cato and Terran to solidify the truce with the other Fae bloodline holder, Baylin. Alice's mates were getting increasingly handsy, but her attention was solely on Nixon. She always had the natural ability to manage people without them feeling managed, Goddess knows she's managed us our whole lives, and she knew what her mates needed in order for her attention to be elsewhere soon. As I started to collect the bigger logs Alice began weaving some smaller bra

ALICE My chest began to heave up and down as I stared at Sebastian, the pain of him leaving me in the middle of the night flooding back to me. “Why didn’t you come back to get us so that we could have done this together? You let me think you left me? That you’d betray me?” Sebastian’s eyebrows scrunched together, his jaw flexing with tension, “I had to get us close enough with minimal risk, I was working on a way to get you here alone-” “Nixon is dead,” I interrupted him, cocking my head as I took a step towards him, “Terran could have died… Linden could have died… again!”

ALICE Jasper looked to Sebastian behind me, but his cruel red hues narrowed like he didn’t find what they were looking for. His anger turned to surprise and a slow ember type of light started to shine through his veins, turning the skin above, and then around them, to ash as he fell to his knees. My blood, and anywhere it touched, was burning him alive. The few screams of agony that he let out were like ecstasy wrapped in more ecstasy, drawing the attention of the very bloodied and probably broken prince’s. Linden’s eyes started to bulge not because of what was happening with Jasper, but because of the water that was filling his lungs. Panic filled me as my body tried to leap into action but Sebastian’s hold hadn’t let go of me yet and his voice boomed out
