[Lennox’s POV]"Her skin’s so damn smooth and unmarred." Princeton sighed, sending waves of disgust through me. "It’s too bad that once I’m done with her, she will die; otherwise, I may have to ruin it."At his words, I could feel Silas’ need to kill. I could only hope that he would arrive soon."Ho
[Silas’s POV]"Go find her!" Gray called as I watched his men finish off Princeton’s men. "We’ll flank you."Nodding, my wolf turned and began to move while shifting into its true form, a massive wolf that radiated such a strong energy that I didn’t quite recognize or believe that it was mine.‘Up a
[Silas’s POV]Ignoring the voices that tried their best to degrade me and the pain of the thorny vines that attempted to confine me, I continued to move towards the small speck of light I could see at the end of this tunnel of neverending torture.‘You’ve got this.’ My wolf urged, indicating that he
[Lennox’s POV]"He needs help!"Quickening my pace, I come to stand beside Gray as he looks at me as if I had grown a second head."What?""Give her your jacket!" He snapped, speaking to one of his men who stood just ahead. "Now!"Before I can fully comprehend what is going on, a coat is being throw
[Lennox’s POV]My hands shook as I used all my strength to stop Silas from attempting to move as Jason busied himself creating an opening to see exactly where the silver bullet was lodged."Even half dead, he’s still strong as hell." Gray growled, pushing down on his side. "Are you sure we can’t kno
[Lennox’s POV]"We’re back." Silas whispered, spurring me from the light doze that I had managed to fall into since leaving the lycan’s compound. "Time to wake up.""Don’t wanna." I grumbled, snuggling closer to him. "Just five more minutes."After everything we had gone through, I truly felt as tho
[Lennox’s POV]"Not as much as I love you." Silas murmured, snaking his arms around my waist. "But what will you do now that you’re essentially human?"What would I do? That was a good question because all my life I had strived to be the strongest beta I could be and help lead Caelum."Honestly," I
[Lennox’s POV]"He’s that bad off?"I couldn’t quite comprehend what I was hearing, especially since Gray and I both managed to come out of the very same ordeal unscathed. Why was it that Alphonze was hurt so badly, but we were okay?"Don’t think too hard on it." Silas murmured, seeming to understan
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
