Alpha Promise Chapter 35
Startled wasn’t quite the word for what I felt about Ode’s declaration. It led to another question.“Is there reason to kill Talon to keep me safe?” I held my breath, waiting for his answer.“No, my lady. He plays a strong part in the prophecy. He doesn’t wish you harm, but he is a vampire.”I exhaled and thought about Lilith again.“Was Lilith a danger to me?”“Yes, but all the vampires are dangerous. Before you arrived, Talon told them you were off-limits and if any touched or threatened you, he would kill them. I fear he regrets killing Lilith, but Talon does not go back on his word.”“She was jealous of me. Were they intimate?”Ode looked uncertain but at the same time, resolute. He didn’t think I really wanted to know. He also knew I needed the information to understand the vulnerabilities and dangers I faced.“For a time,” he finally said. “The relationship was more one sided. Talon put up with her jealousies and manipulations but no one thought he would keep her around forever.

It had taken me a long time to prepare so it was only an hour before Ode came to get me. I kept forgetting to check the door and see if I could leave on my own. This time he knocked and didn’t enter until I opened the door and my question was answered.I could have worked with my sword in the garden to kill some of the time instead of allowing my nerves to get to the snapping point. I would definitely take advantage the following day. The need to burn off energy was almost overwhelming.“My lady,” Ode said with a slow nod of his head.“Ode,” I replied. I had to walk through that door and go to Talon. I was suddenly terrified.Ode placed his arm out, which shocked me and at the same time gave me the courage to move forward. We stepped together toward the cozy dining room. After the first fifty feet, I forgot I was wearing heels. The dress slinked down my body. I wore nothing beneath it.We passed a male vampire and he bowed to me. He wasn’t as gorgeous as Talon, but he was still incred

Talon’s eyes seared me. I swear I could feel the hot sparks.He didn’t argue or ask why. He stood and took my hand. I walked with him until we reached a deep set of stairs. Moving suddenly, he swooped me into his arms and carried me deeper into his lair. I couldn’t help my small nervous laugh as I circled my arms around his neck.He placed me on my feet when we reached the bottom. Low lights high on the wall lit the way as we continued walking, my hand in his. He opened the door and his rooms were a suite like mine though larger. The furniture and décor looked like they came from a past century, maybe two. It was more ornate than the first dining room where I’d met him.“I only have the wine mixture I drink. Sable and Ode are the only two who come to my rooms and Ode prefers water.” His eyes stayed on mine.“Did Lilith come here?” It slipped out before I could stop the question.A flash of pain entered his eyes, but then it was gone.“No. When we were together, I went to her room,” he

The power surge detonated out of me and Talon took it along with my blood. I throbbed where we were intimately joined and his strokes grew more rapid. My heels dug into his ass as he took and took and took.There was no way to describe what was happening. I was completely undone, completely consumed, and completely his. With a final arch of his hips, he came. A groan thundered from his throat to meet my cry. My entire body vibrated beneath his. His skin was cool and mine hot as our breathing settled.I smoothed my hands over his back and unlocked my legs.His mouth covered mine again and I tasted blood and my desire. He pulled away and lifted his weight slightly so I could breathe.I looked into his eyes.“Mine. My mate.” I repeated the words he’d said because it seemed right.He rolled to the side and took me with him so we lay facing each other.“Thank you for this gift,” he said.My hand traveled between his legs and I took him in my hand. He was half-erect.“Mine is a gift that ke

I wasn’t sure why I woke up in my bed. I didn’t remember coming here. Talon and I stayed up most of the night. I groggily remembered falling asleep in his bed before the sun came up.I rolled over and saw a note on the bedside table.Visit the sun today.I will find you when it goes down.I jumped out of bed and hit the shower. Talon’s note made me realize how much I needed sunshine. I sent a message to Ode so he would deliver my meal in the garden and to bring tea for himself. I smiled when I felt his grunt.I dressed in leather but left off the jacket. I opened the door to my room and quickly walked the twists and turns without thought. I knew where I was going; the plants from the garden were my guide. I opened the last door and walked into my daytime wonderland.I took a deep breath and relished the heat on my bare arms. When I looked around, I saw Ode in the shadowed part of the garden, waiting patiently.“My apologies,” I said when I was closer. “I didn’t think about the sunligh

My fairy-tale relationship with Talon lasted for two months.I stepped into a room I was unfamiliar with and Conner was sitting on his throne. He was shirtless and wore black leather pants that conformed to his body. His muscles bunched when he saw me and then rippled when he stood.The people surrounding him departed and I walked forward until we were a few feet apart. He didn’t smile as he had in the past. A rumbling noise sounded from his throat.“You are mine,” he snarled. The words held so much power, I almost went to my knees. It was a different energy than Talon’s, wild and completely untamed. It traveled over my skin and I thrilled at the feel, but I told him the truth.“No,” I said. “I belong to Talon.”We were suddenly standing inches apart.“You are mine,” he repeated with a growl, breathing the words against my lips. He kissed me.Conner drank my power much as Talon had and I couldn’t fight him. I wasn’t sure I wanted to. I’d closed my eyes when his lips met mine and when

Four weeks after I’d dreamed of Conner, something changed. I knew it the minute I opened my eyes. Ode entered my bedroom, which was something he’d stopped doing after I had the ability to call him through the plants.“Talon has asked for you to accompany him this evening. He would like you to pack a bag for a week’s stay.” He lifted a large case for me to use. “He has requested you wear the gown inside.”Talon was taking me with him. I almost forgave him for how he’d treated me this past month. Almost. I would have time with him and we could talk. The place in my gut that had been wrapped tight, loosened.Ode’s eyes barely met mine. Unfortunately, I was too excited to really notice.“Eat first, my lady, and I will help you pack.”I shoveled down my food. When I finished, I washed my hands and opened the travel bag to see what was inside. Instead of silver, this gown dripped glittering gold that looked like fine chain mail over shiny gold material. I laid it out on the bed and took out

Sable looked over my head at Talon, and then he glanced behind us. Two vampires stepped forward and placed their hands on Talon’s shoulders. My mate looked at me and I saw more than sadness now. He shook off the arms holding him and grabbed me, pulling me in for a punishing kiss. Conner’s growls filled my ears, but Talon ignored them. “I love you,” he said, looking into my eyes. “I will always love you.” He was wrenched away and Sable’s hand landed on my shoulder. “You need to get her out of here,” Sable told Conner. “Now. We will have trouble holding him.” I started struggling against Sable. Had he set Talon up? Sable turned my body so I was facing him and we were both standing, though I had no idea when I stood up. He was holding both my shoulders now. “Talon never goes back on his word. Remember that,” he said. “Conner will not harm you.” “No,” I said as the room spun. My power, I thought. I must use my power. I tried but it wouldn’t work. Sable had drugged me and Talon had

Ode waited for me to eat and then change clothes. I came from the bedroom in jeans and a tank top. I carried my sword but placed it on the couch.Ode went to the center of the room and sat cross-legged on the floor. With his short arms and legs, I was surprised he made it look so simple. I sat across from him.“You must breathe deeply to gather your energy,” he said. “Close your eyes and try to see the colors. It will become easier with time.”“Do you have this energy?” I asked. “Is that why you know what I need to do?”“I hold a very small part of your magic. I was born knowing how to teach you.”“Do all the guttybrew know this?”“No. Like Talon, I was given a place in the prophecy. Because of it, my power is slightly stronger than other guttybrew but nothing like yours.”I closed my eyes and breathed deeply as he requested. The colors began spiraling behind my eyelids. I opened them and saw the colors in the room.“That is your power,” Ode said. “You must pull it into you. Think of
