[Lennox’s POV]The next morning, I straddled Silas, taking comfort in the feel of his warmth that seeped into my skin.Ah, I was going to miss this. Once we separated from here, our plan would come into play, and there was truly no telling how long it would take for someone to take the bait."Don’t
Never in my life did I ever imagine being like this with someone would feel so fucking good and so fucking right, but here I was in my most vulnerable state with the man that was always meant for me."Harder," I whimpered, wanting to feel him more. "Fuck me harder."And like a genie that grants its
[Lennox’s POV]‘I love you.’Those were the last words I heard before Silas cut our connection, leaving me totally alone to make my way towards where a driver would be waiting for me.This, too, was part of our plan to ensure that I arrived at my new home as soon as possible.When I arrived at the d
[Silas’s POV]My head throbbed as I stared at the small computer screen in front of me. Since Lennox’s departure, I had watched, waiting to see if anyone made any odd movements, but seemed to be coming up short.Letting out a huff of frustration, I clicked to another camera and began to watch the fo
[Silas’s POV]"Poison Rose." I gasped, snapping back to the present. "We've got a name!""What was that?" Clifford asked, furrowing his brows. "We need to hunt down a pack called Poison Rose." I explained, beginning to move. "That’s where Stacy and Hana are hiding.""I don’t think I’ve ever heard o
[Silas’s POV]I watched Damien’s face pale as his panicked gaze took Alissa in as if to make sure that nothing had been done to her."Please!" Alissa gasped, coming to his aid. "This was all my doing; please, if you punish anyone, it should be me!""Alissa," Damien hissed. "I’ll handle this."Remain
[Silas’s POV]I surged forward, weapon at the ready, while my gaze remained on the lone figure that was now weaving his way in and out of the trees that lined the street. Despite their play at seeming to be alone, I kept my guard up, expecting more."FAN OUT!"Letting out a howl, I watched as my men
[Silas’s POV]"Do your worst." My captive cackled, "I’m not afraid.""Fair enough."Deciding to show that I didn’t give a damn whether or not he actually cared for his life, I let my blade dig into his thigh just enough to draw blood."Let’s see how much you really can take."Twisting my knife, I be
Nodding, I take a deep breath and rush to Ayla’s side while Gwen begins the operation, and after a few minutes have passed, I hear a shriek fill the air before she is lifting a tiny creature into the air and handing it over to Brian to clean while she cuts the bloody cord attached.Once she is finis
[Aera’s POV]9 months Late"Mmm, Aera, right there."Ayla’s voice echoes around me, spurring my movements even more. Knowing she was enjoying what I was doing to her was all the encouragement I needed."Ah!" she gasps, leaning more into the chair in front of her. "Not so hard."Chuckling, I lean for
When I reach my parents, their faces fill with relief, and I feel my heart squeeze. Even though they hadn’t spoken a word about everything that happened, I was sure that they were now expecting me to snap at any given second. I still had a lot of making up to do in order to gain everyone’s trust an
[Celia’s POV] I stare up into Alphonze’s dark, unreadable eyes while trying to figure out exactly what I was feeling. Was I just caught by surprise because he suddenly appeared, and that was why I suddenly felt jittery and my heart was racing? Right, that had to be it; there couldn’t be anything e
This had been proof to me that we were intended to be together since we didn’t meet just once by chance but twice.After that, I approached her and began to woo her since I couldn’t stand the thought of losing her. It was a love that I never imagined could exist, let alone for me, but she made me so
[Alphonze’s POV]I stand to the side, watching as everyone present for the evening enjoys themselves, laughing, dancing, and being merry. It had been a while since I had attended something like this, so it was taking a bit to get used to it again.The last time I came to a full moon ball was when I
"It seems that your date for this evening has arrived," Alphonze announces, clapping me on the shoulder. "I wouldn’t distract you any longer."Nodding, I give him a look and don’t miss the sorrow that flashes in his eyes as he looks from Ayla to me."Hold on as tight as you can because you never kno
[Aera's POV]Soft music drifts toward me as I stand to the side of the large ballroom, waiting for my date to arrive.Despite all the chaos that had been happening in our world, Silas and Alphonze insisted that we have a small, intimate gathering for the full moon as a way to relax and unwind after
[Ayla's POV]The next day, I sit in the passenger seat of Aera's car, staring at Crimsone Tides Estate while fighting the urge to run away. When I entered that building, I'd be making the toughest decision of my life, and I wasn't exactly sure if I was ready.Beside me, Aera remains silent while hol
