NIRVANA

I’d never been to Cumbria, let alone England. The weather was chilly. Archibald castle was built on a highland with greener grass, surrounded by a moat, like one of those featured in a popular historical drama series.

It looked surreal. I expected a Dracula’s castle with a dark and Gothic theme. This one, though, was exemplary.

“Don’t show off. Stay calm, and remember we’re his guests and want something from him, even if he throws insults.”

“Is he that terrible person, Alpha King?” I asked.

“When he’s not in his mood. By the way, his guards are humans.”

We arrived at the gate after walking ten minutes from where Zarah sent us through the portal.

“Lord Archibald is expecting us,” Alpha King said, and these are my presents. He showed two cases of his wines carried by Luka and McKaye.

“I’ll assist you to his study,” the other man, older than the blonde at the gate, said.

The thick double doors cracked open. The interior of his castle was magnificent—gorgeous was an under

    NIRVANA “Ah, yes. My apology, Bastie. You’re looking for a knife, and your beautiful witch led you here. Where’s Zarah, by the way? I haven’t seen here in a while.” Still holding a glass of blood, he sat and crossed his legs before the Alpha King. “We’re a bit in a hurry, Lord Archibald. There’s a serious matter left in the US that’s escalating fast.” Knight turned to a serious alpha that I didn’t see often. His stance remained strong, confident, and admirable. “Is it about the virus infecting beings?” He turned in our direction. “As a matter of fact, it is.” “Huh.” He slightly nodded. “It is everywhere. A friend of a friend of mine in Germany rotted to death. He was bitten by a werewolf.” He pointed a finger at us. “I know your fangs are deadly, but we don’t die like what happened to him. Here, look at this.” He showed Sebastien the video on his phone. Knight and I went to watch it. My hand flew to my mouth. I was horrified to watch a person dying, but this one was a nightmare.

    KNIGHT Nirvana almost had the dagger when Chance woke up. In a blink of an eye, he had his fang on my mate’s neck, his hands locking her arms. With my heart in my throat, my wolf urged me to come out. I already felt my eyes glowing. The guys growled, ready to attack and rip Chance’s head off. “Relax!” Archibald became the middleman, stopping us from killing his brother. Tension quickly erupted in the tomb. I felt their anger everywhere, and my wolf turned feral, about to attack and kill, where his laser eyes focused on the one who had his mate. “I will fucking kill you and your brother if you won’t let my mate go. You bloodsuckers, maybe fast, but you can’t take us all down in five seconds.” My anger instantly boiled in my blood as I watched Chance’s teeth grazing against my mate’s skin. “He’s not gonna bite your mate,” Archibald grunted. “Chance, let her go before it gets bloody down here. She’s not your type, bastard,” Sebastien said impatiently. “We don’t have time for this.

    KNIGHT “The Excalibur,” I muttered under my breath. “Thor’s Mjölnir,” said Kailin. “No,” Chance replied. Grunted, Nirvana let the dagger and glared at Chance. “You have to give it to me, haven’t you?” “Yes.” “Wait a sec. Why can you hold the dagger without hurting yourself?” Nirvana asked. That was an excellent question. “Remember what I told you about a few people secretly tasked to protect something with their lives, the Keepers? Just like Case, he is tasked and responsible for protecting the key, and I am tasked to keep the journal by birthright, and Chance’s job is to give the dagger to the last female Katzius’ descendant,” Dylan explained. “That makes sense,” Luka said. “Well, it’s been an honor having this dagger with me for almost a century and a half since my father passed it on to me. It’s yours now, Nirvana.” He took my mate’s hand and placed the dagger on her palm. “Protect this with your life and use it to do good.” “Thank you.” She grasped it, and something just

    NIRVANA “Oh, my God.” Air stuck in my lungs as I stared at the giant wolf in front of our vehicle. His eyes were pitch black, snarling at us, drooling in black blood. We had two problems. We couldn’t drive to the other line, or the wolf would throw us off the bridge. If we ran it over, it would damage the car, and if the wolf would not die, it would kill us all. Then, we had to walk if we could not find a passing vehicle. “What should we do now? We can’t run over a wolf or change lanes.” Exactly. “Stay in the car, Luka—” “Wait.” Knight was instantly alarmed. “What are you going to do? You can’t fight that wolf, or you get infected if you get bitten, or maybe the scratch is also infectious.” “I know. I’ll be careful.” “No, Knight.” I grabbed his arm. “I’ll run to the woods and let it follow me.” “Are you insane?” The way Kailin looked at me, she thought I was out of my mind. Maybe I was, but I could teleport. “How many werewolves are we in this car? We even have a Lycan royalt

    NIRVANA I was back to the place where it all started. Where I first met Cyrius, how he showed me everyone I loved died. It was painful, and I was hopeless. And then he appeared. “I’ve shown you, your future— how it will end. Resisting against me, you know you can’t win, Nirvana. Come and join me, and see how your future changes, just the way you’ve ever dreamed, having family and kids—” I felt extreme fear again as I watched the future, losing hope. “Over my dead body! You can stop spreading your tentacles, asshole. You won’t get what you want. Even if you will kill everyone I love, I will find a way to kill you.” “You had your chance.” “Fuck you!” I jolted to sit, my heart galloping in my chest. I realized I was still in the vehicle, and we hadn’t arrived at Inverness. “Whoa.” I thought it came from Kailin. “What’s wrong?” I saw their worried face. “You must be dreaming. You just cursed in your sleep,” Knight said. He still looked hurt. I knew he cared about me, but I was mor

    NIRVANA “That dream I had, it was where I badly hurt. I don’t know, a gut feeling, I guess. I don’t wanna risk the people there.” “Don’t worry. We’re fifty miles away from Inverness. By then, Zarah will be done with the meeting with her coven.” Later in the afternoon, we finally arrived at the Inverness. We entered the pub, and most customers were local humans. I couldn’t feel other supernatural beings but us. “Where’s your friend, Alpha?” Knight asked. “He’ll be here, but Kain is always on time.” He looked at the time on his watch as we took a table while Luka, Dylan, and McKaye took another table. “I wanna drink Scotch.” “You don’t look twenty-one, Nirvana,” Knight whispered, amused. “Really? The last time I checked, Scots can start drinking at eighteen. Then you shouldn’t be sleeping with me.” I put my hand on his thigh, slowly tracing up just below his crotch. “Not funny.” We ordered drinks and the rest of the guys. Before our order arrived, Sebastien said, “Something

    KNIGHT “Are you going to ignore me the whole time?” We were all exhausted, but we were finally back at the vineyards, and I didn’t want Nirvana to stay angry at me. So far, she was doing a great job of ignoring me. “I need to talk to Kailin. I’ll see you later.” She just took off her jacket and went to the door. “Nirvana, you’re not leaving this room until we talk.” It was not a request but an order. Her head snapped in my direction, her eyes narrowing. “What are you going to do?” “We’ll talk.” “I don’t wanna talk, okay? Not now. I’m tired and need a good friend, and you’re definitely not my friend right now.” “I already apologized.” “Did you? First and foremost, I’m an adult. I’m not your wife. Yes, I’m your mate, but you can’t tell me what to do.” “I don’t want you getting hurt, and we’re not even close to ending this madness. We don’t have a vaccine or a cure for this black virus, and if you get hurt, what will happen to our mission? It’s over, Nirvana. We can’t do it wit

    NIRVANA “Who has his number? This has to end today.” Knight was shaking in anger. “You can’t do this out of anger. Let that emotion calmer, and then we can make a plan to deal with this.” I knew what it was like to feel violated and disrespected. “This is our fault, Alpha Knight,” West finally said. “I will do whatever they want just to stop harassing us.” “You will not do such a thing. Travis is an arrogant son of a bitch, and if they think they can scare us because they have guns, they just make their biggest mistake. This can’t go on. It has to end today, and they shouldn’t have laid their hands on both of you.” “What are you going to do, Knight?” He looked at me. “What I should have done a long time ago when they started bullying the twins. I gave them a chance, and they came for us. Now, I have to eliminate one problem at a time.” “I went scouting outside the nightclub. I think they don’t do business transactions there anymore. I couldn’t follow up where they transferred

    NIRVANAThree months laterThis man wrecked me in every way possible, in a good-to-be-true way. The private island Lycan Alpha King Sebastien owned was more beautiful than he described, and we were here for the third day of our honeymoon. Yes, honeymoon. Knight asked me to marry him again, and I said yes before he could finish popping up the question. And here I was in bed, legs spread at his mercy. His searing gaze burned my skin. He stood at the foot of the bed, naked, and my hungry eyes devoured him. He was perfect from head to toe, and those muscles and his long thick erection in his hand with a small drop glistening in the slit of his crown.I licked my lips, squirming in bed. Knight knew precisely how to drive me crazy. My hands fisted above my head. No matter how I struggled, the rope laced with magic he used to tie didn’t even budge—no thanks to the book of spells my mother’s own. Dylan sent me a box full of my mother’s books and tools. Knight found out about it, and he u

    NIRVANAI smiled at Carter. “Yeah. I’m a werewolf.”“You look wonderful, Vana. If he’s over you, come find me.”“Cut the shit, Archie.” Knight chuckled as he hugged Archibald. “Glad you could make it.”“I would not miss for the entire world,” Chance was the one to reply.Kain and Dane were engrossed in their conversation at the corner.“Hey.”Kain hugged me. “I thought we lost you.”“So do I.”“We wouldn’t be here without you.”“You all keep saying that when it was more of a team effort.” I patted Dane on his arm. He remained at Kain’s pack of assassins to protect Kailin and our allies. “You take care of my best friend, or I will rip your throat out.”“You can stop threatening him.” Kailin, in her beautiful blue gown, came and kissed me on the cheek. “I will be the one to rip his throat out if he betrays me.”The tapping of a spoon on the glass caught my attention. The whole pack house went silent, and the music stopped. Our attention went to Victor, Lennox, and my grandfather, who no

    NIRVANAI shuddered at the loss of his thick dick inside me.“On your knees, Nirvana.” He growled. His breathing was rougher.“I don’t bow nor kneel to anyone, but sure.” I was too eager to do as he commanded me to, so I moved to my knees and faced him.“Open your mouth for me.” His eyes almost glowed. His jaw locked harder, every part of his body tensing.I opened my mouth as he gathered a fistful of my hair and gripped it, pulling me closer to his erection.“Now suck me.” He flexed his hips as he shoved his cock past my lips.I took it too eagerly, one hand gripping the base, the other on my knees, balancing myself on the bed. I swirled my tongue around him, sucked, and stroked him.My mouth stretched around his girth. I struggled to breathe through my nose, my eyes watering as I tried to accommodate him without gagging.“Relax your throat. You can take all of me.” He pushed my head into his cock, and quickened his thrust until a guttural groan erupted from his throat.He threw his

    KNIGHTI stopped at the edge of the bed and watched Nirvana strip off her clothes one by one. Nothing fancy, even her skin tone bra, but her body, though, the sexiest and hottest fucking thing I’d ever seen, always would be and forever.She was on the last thing, her cotton panties, and there she was, the same body and curves I’d felt many times against mine, and the same woman I fell in love with over and over again, smiling at me as she spread her legs wide apart, revealing her always smooth and waxed pussy.Her cheeks flushed as she slid her hands between her thighs, and a low groan rumbled from within my chest as she let go of a shuddering moan.I found myself gripping my erect cock, stroking it. Locking her searing gaze against mine, she lay on her back, inviting me into bed. She didn’t have to do that because I intended to join her and make her feel what I longed for over a week.I crawled into bed, joined her, and braced my forearms on either side of her shoulders. Then I held

    NIRVANA“No freaking way! That’s impossible.” My eyes grew wide as I stared at them one by one.“Is it, though?” McKaye said. “We trained for months.”“To fight that freaking monster?”“Your bloodline is some kind of link to an ancient warlock from Greece,” McKaye explained. “And you were the only one who could kill that son of a bitch.”“Yeah. My mother’s side from my grandmother were witches.”“And you don’t have a gift?” Knight asked me hesitantly.“No. Why? Should I?”He glanced at Zarah.“You’re a witch, Zarah. Can’t you jag my memory or something?”“It doesn’t work that way.”“Then I’m sorry to disappoint you, guys, but I don’t remember fighting an evil warlock named Cyrius.”“What about him?” Kaleb, the beta, tipped his chin at the alpha.Alpha Knight finally groomed himself, looking hotter and smelled so good.I couldn’t help but smile, and every time I looked at him, my heart skipped a beat. “No.”“You’re lying.”“Excuse me?” I arched a brow at him.“I can hear your heartbeat

    KNIGHTWhen Kailin called urgently via our link, I thought someone was in trouble again in the tasting room, like the twins.I had struggled the past week without Nirvana, but I never gave up searching for my mate. Scratch that. I once considered jumping off the cliff, and there may be a minuscule chance she would appear and come to save me. But somehow, her promise kept my sanity intact.Everyone helped me check for the lost women or unclaimed bodies in every morgue in the region, but none of them was Nirvana, and I couldn’t find a record of her death either. I felt so relieved and hung in a thinner thread as the days passed, and there were still no signs of her.The underworld was back to normal— no more viruses or killings, thanks to my mate, and my uncle was offered a job at the council while I barely hung in there and not dealing with my loss. I barely slept, or I found myself in the woods mourning. I lost some sense of self-love and belongingness. I couldn’t work, and I hadn’t

    NIRVANA“Grandpa! Where the hell have you been?”“Vana?” His eyes widened like he’d never seen me in years. He ran in my direction and squeezed me into a tight hug. “Oh, Goddess. Thank Goddess.”I chuckled as I hugged him back. “It’s only just been a week, Grandpa. You’re overreacting.”He looked me in the eye from head to toe, cupped my head, and kissed me on the cheek, and he was about to get all teary-eyed.“We don’t do that, Grandpa. Where have you been, anyway? I was worried when you did not pick up my call.”“What do you mean?” There was pain, confusion, and relief in his eyes.I slumped my ass to his couch. “You’re acting weird. What’s going on with you? How’s the pack anyway?”He came sniffing me, making me freeze. “You’re a—”“A werewolf?” I scoffed. “Yeah, since birth. Duh. You taught me how to shift. Don’t tell me you suddenly forget about it.”There it was again, the staring, and then he smiled. “I’m proud of you, kiddo.”“Of course, I just sold two pieces of my paintings

    KNIGHTGasping for air, I woke up on the ground. The blood’s bitter, sweet, metallic taste dried on my mouth.A shudder of terror rocked through me as I got up. It felt like a new day, or nothing happened last night.Trees stood tall, leaves dancing against the soft breeze. Sunlight streaked from the sky.I saw broken trees on the ground from a distance, a reminder that something had happened around here last night.“Guys!” I went to Califf, shaking him. “Cal, wake up.”He sucked in a breath, staring at me. “What happened?”“I have no idea.”Luka and McKaye stirred and froze as they realized we were still in the forest.“What the hell?” McKaye looked at his naked self.“Did we win?” Sebastien dusted the dirt off his body.Alpha Frye came from behind us, confused, eyes roaming around. “I think she did it.”“Fuck. Nirvana. Where is she?” Terror filled my chest. “I can’t feel her.”“We’ll find her.” Michael, Grady, and Ryden went separate ways to find Nirvana.“Nirvana!” I called her nam

    NIRVANA“Asina? Wow. You are gorgeous.” I was surprised to see her standing before me. For the first time, she showed me herself— a beautiful and tall woman with straight long, dark hair, brown eyes, and a smile that could bring men to their knees. She was truly captivating, a real strong heroine in a white flowy dress. “Am I dead?”“About to if you won’t wake up.”“I can’t. There’s too much pain and loss. I can’t do this, Asina. I’m too weak compared to his power. He killed everyone I loved, and I want to die along with them. I give up. And you leave me alone there.”“Nirvana, you take it all wrong. You don’t need me to win the battle against Cyrius. All you need is your courage, your strength, and your heart.”Frustrated, I sobbed as I fell on my knees. “He is powerful to stop, and you’re telling me to use my heart and my strength? I don’t have strength anymore. I can’t even level a percent of his power.”“Because you believe you can’t.”“Are you kidding me right now?” I growled in
