DARIA POV: I woke up to the sound of soft snoring in my ear. My body was pinned down to the bed beneath me, and I couldn’t help but sigh. Blinking my eyes open, I gave it a moment for my eyes to adjust to the rays of the morning light. Turning to my right, I saw the source of the snoring, and I couldn’t help but smile. Gabriel was slumped beside me; his stomach was pressed against the mattress, his head turned towards me, while his muscular arm pinned me down. I maneuvered my body so that I was facing him. Then I just laid there and watched him sleep. Gabriel was a beautiful fallen angel. And I know what you want to know. No, we didn’t have sex; hell, we didn’t even have oral sex. I just like for him to sleep in the same bed as me. I feel safe with him. I mean, after all, he is my guardian fallen angel. He became my guardian fallen angel when I was 13 after my brothers kidnapped me, literally. I mean, literally, they just kidnapped me one day and took me to some cabin on the far en
MILA POV:Darkness surrounded me.I didn’t know where I was, only that I was in darkness, a short black robe wrapped tightly around my body.“Cara Mia, Cara Mia.” His voice echoed in the darkness. “Finally, I’m going to have you all to myself. Mi manchi, Cara Mia.” His voice was deep and low with a strong, sexy thick Italian accent.I could feel eyes watching me from in the darkness all around me. I knew he was watching me; I could feel his gaze piercing my skin. I wanted to see him. I needed to see him, just to make sure that it was him. I had to be sure.“Say my name Cara Mia, Per Favore.” His voice begged out of the darkness, it sounded like him. The way my body shivered at his every word was also a sign that it was him. But I had to be sure.“Where are you?” I called out to him—my voice trembled in the darkness.“Di ll mio nome(say my name)” He begged again.“No!” I yelled, “Not until I see that it’s really you.”His chuckle echoed as he stepped out of the darkness. My breath caug
1283"Love, which quickly arrests the gentle heart, Seized him with my beautiful form That was taken from me, in a manner which still grieves me. Love, which pardons no beloved from loving, took me so strongly with delight in him That, as you see, it still abandons me not..." -Dante Alighieri.Sleep, for some reason, was avoiding me tonight. I kept tossing and turning, my mind wandering everywhere except for sleep. Sighing, I tossed and laid on my back, my eyes closed in one last attempt to finally find peace in sleep. But once again, I failed. Groaning, I opened my eyes and ran my hands over my face in frustration."Still can't sleep?" a heavenly voice asked, causing me to jump. Looking around in the darkness, with only the moon as a light, I caught the shadow of a person sitting on my desk.Placing my hand over my heart, I let out a small chuckle. "You shouldn't scare people like that, Mila," I started, getting out of my bed and walking over to her. I stopped when I got right in fro
ELIAS POV:I was worried; my Vixen was sick, terribly sick. I knew it; everyone knew it, but she wouldn’t admit it. After Lani, she got worse; she always looked so weak and pale that she passed out a few times. I didn’t know how to help her; she was a demon, not a werewolf, so I didn’t know how to help her if she didn’t tell me.I was in my office, trying to do pact business. But my thoughts kept going to Mila and her health. What the hell was wrong with her, and how could I help? It made me feel worthless. What kind of alpha, a king, can’t even care for his mate? What kind of a mate does that make me? I ran my fingers through my hair in frustration, then the phone rang.I looked at it, but I hesitated to answer it for some reason. I felt a dark, cold shiver run over me the longer the phone rang. Finally, I picked up the phone from the receiver and answered it.“Hello?” I answered.“Are you happy with yourself?” the deep voice on the other end responded. His voice was cold and dark an
MILA POV: As I took a shower, I could feel Eli’s eyes on me. I just sighed. I knew he was worried for me; I could hear it in his voice and see it on his face. But things were going to change. He was back; I didn’t know how but he was. “If you’re not going to shower with me, please don’t just stand there staring at me,” I told Eli, and I heard him sigh. “Call me if you need me, ok?” he said, worry lacing his voice. “I will,” I responded. “I love you,” He told me again before walking out. I just hummed a response. I loved him; I truly did. But I couldn’t express it right now, and honestly, it was for the best. I couldn’t risk expressing any type of affection towards him. I didn’t want him to end up like Adam, so I will keep my distance, for now. I listened to him sigh sadly, then I heard him close the door behind him as he left. The hot water that ran through my hair and down my body felt blissful. Even though I was alone in the shower, I knew he was there, watching and waiting.
DARIA POV:After my mother went upstairs I quickly finished my pancakes and then left for grandpa Luies. I liked traveling between the Empires seeing the different how they dressed and how they interacted with each other.Gabriel drove us and I sat and just waited. Honestly I worried if I should bring Gabriel with me or not. His relationship with my grandpa, even though they settled their differences you could still feel some tension in the air whenever they were in the same room together.I just looked at him as he stared ahead, his eyes on the road. “Why are you staring at me?” He asked never taking his eyes off the road.I just sighed. “Are you sure you're going to feel comfortable at grandpa Luie?” I asked him and he just chuckled.“Awww your worried for me?” he said in a baby voice as he reached over to me and pinched my side.“Well duh,” I laughed “If my guardian angel dies who will protect me from my psycho brothers.” I whimpered in fake fear.“I’m sure you’ll find someone.”“A
THIRD PERSON POV:Just then, a faint, sad howl rang out through the air, and they all looked up. They all knew that strong, powerful howl. It was Axl, the alpha king himself, crying.Daria looked up into the sky, she could feel the sadness running through the bond. However, she wasn’t worried or scared, instead, she felt oddly calm.“Something's wrong; we need to go back home,” Gabriel said as he started to panic and get up from his seat.“Can you let me talk to my granddaughter,” Lucifer said looking directly at Gabriel “Without you?”Gabriel looked at Daria, and she gave him a small smile. “Can you wait in the living room?”Gabriel stared at her intensely for a moment before giving her a sharp nod. Then he looked over Lucifer and Ciel. Turned and walked away.Another howl faintly echoed throughout the air.Lucifer just looked up into the air, a small smile on his face. “And so it begins.”“You know what going on don’t you?” Daria asked him. Her eyes narrowed at him, and his smile wi
1283DANTE POV:It’s been a week, and I was still in pain, but at least I wasn’t throwing up anymore. I haven’t gotten a visit from Mila, and as the days went by, I found myself missing her more and more.My fiance Gemma walked into my room. She carried a tray as she slowly made her way over to me. I just watched her every movement, and I couldn’t help but compare her to Mila. While Gemma’s skin was beautifully fair, Mila’s was a beautiful olive color. Gemma’s hair came a little past her shoulders and was jet black; she always kept it tied up. But Mila’s hair reminded me of the moon; her beautiful silver hair always seemed to shine, never seemed dull. Mila’s body was full of curves, and I loved to run my hands over every inch of her body. However, Gemma’s body, however beautiful she was, her body wasn’t nearly as curvy as Mila’s.Mila was never shy about her body; everything she wore was always so very revealing, showing a lot of skin. But Gemma, like a good younger woman, always cove
Black.That's all that surrounded Elias Woods was blackness. He was no where, he saw nothing, he could hear nothing, and when he tried to speak, nothing came out. There was just nothing.Then in that darkness shined a light and then came a voice. The beautiful voice of his daughter Daria. She was calling out to him and laughing the way she use to laugh and Elias followed that light and that beautiful laugh of his pup. He wanted to see her, he wanted to touch her to hold her to beg her for forgiveness that he knew he didnt deserve but was going to do it anyway.But the more Elias walked, the more he started to notice that he wasn't alone. He looked to his side and saw an identical copy of himself standing right next to him. The only thing different was that his eyes were pitch black. Elias knew that this was Axl, it was just like when him and Mila got trapped in that place after bonding for the first time.Again Daria's sweet laughter echoed through the darkness and she called out to h
DEO POV:Walking out of the room I sighed to myself. I was surprised. In fact hell I relieved that that whole conversation went by smoothly. No arguments, not violence no nothing, not even after Lori spoke up, towards him. I was even more surprised when he didn't react towards Drake and Lani being there. I though he would at least curse them out or glare at them or something. But he just walked out, without saying anything.Turning to Damen, I looked at me and he looked calm. Almost too calm and it worried me a little. "You ok Damen?" I asked him and he raised an eyebrow at me."Yeah why wouldn't I be?" He said smoothly. Yeah he was too calm. Right when I was about to say something, the room door opened and Drake walked out carrying a giggling Lani.Immediately I looked at Damen and the look he had on his face was one I was expecting from the beginning. He looked frozen in spot as he glared at Drake and Lani, his jaw clenched in anger. This was the reaction I was expecting from Damen,
One Week LaterThe Wolf EmpireCORY POV:It's been a week since we seen our father. A week since we seen Daria or Gabriel. A week since we seen our mother and a week since Deo and Damen took over the Wolf Empire.Being that Daria's gone, me and Lori had to take over at watching over the siblings. We couldn't depend on Damen or Deo. It was like something snapped in them the day that Daria, disappeared. They didn't seem to care about anything anymore, the only thing they are interested in was taking over the Empire from dad. And then starting a war against grandpa.It doesn't seem like Dad is putting in too much effort to stop them either. He never comes out of his room or participate in the empire decisions. He left everything to them, and so far things aren't going well.It's only been a week and Damen and Deo already cut off all communication with the Demon Empire as well as the Rouge Empire. They are blaming the grandpa for mom, Daria and Gabriel disappearing and saying that he prob
THIRD-PERSON POV:They waited and waited. But Daria’s body didn’t move. She just laid there on the dark red table. And they were all becoming worried. Especially Ciel, and his worry was coming out in anger as he paced the floor.“What’s going on Lucifer,” Ciel said as he ran his fingers through his hair in frustration. “She’s not waking up, why isn’t she waking up!” He yelled out.“Calm down Ciel, just give it time,” Lucifer said but that didn’t help calm Ciel one bit. Instead, it frustrated him even more.“Calm down,” Ceil let out a sarcastic laugh. “You want me to fucking calm down! She’s not moving! You said she would come back but she isn’t! what the fuck!”Lucifer just shook his head.“Honestly I agree with Ciel.” Gabriel said as he sighed and looked down. “I’m worried too, shouldn’t she be back by now?”“These things take time, we just have to be patient, that’s all.” Lucifer sighed as if he was tired of hearing their complaints.“How much time!” Ciel yelled.“It’ll be soo-”Luc
CIEL POV:That fucking wolf!I knew nothing good would come out of that Alpha; it was only a matter of time. But he truly fucked up this time. Lucifer kept going on and on about how that Alpha bastard almost killed his daughter. But honestly, I could give two shits about that or her. It may sound cold-hearted, but I didn’t care. All I needed was my Daria, but now she was gone from me. Her life was taken by that fucking wolf and his sons. They were all going to burn by my flames until they were nothing but mere ashes.One thing the world will learn is never to mess with what’s mine. And as soon as this ceremony is over and I have my Daria safe in my arms. I plan to make an example of what happens when you fuck with what belongs to me. Starting with those stalker brothers of hers. They think they're crazy, trust me they don’t even know the definition of the word. But I’ll show them. I’ll show them what it really means to be crazy, and it’ll cost them their life.This ceremony better wor
DARIA POV:Darkness. I was surrounded by nothing but darkness. I looked around and saw nothing but darkness. I was dead, I knew I was. Sadness passed over me as I remembered how I died. Gently my hand reached up and softly grazed my neck. I couldn’t believe my father would actually kill me. It didn’t matter if it was him or Axl. Either way, they were still my father. But for information, for his mate, he actually choked me to death. My own father.In the mix of my sadness, hatred and anger started to build and my hate for being part werewolf only grew. No one fucking helped. My brothers just sat back and let my father do it. No one cared if I died. How fucking dare he do this to me! I didn’t want to die, I couldn’t die, not yet. I still had so much to live for. So much to accomplish, this couldn’t be the end for me!Then in the distance of the darkness, there were two small lights. Slowly, I walked towards the lights and I saw that it was two candles across from each other on the floo
CIEL POV:I was sitting at home thinking about my meeting with Daria and how perfect she was. She was everything I wanted in a woman and I knew I was going to enjoy ravaging her. She was meant to be with me, she was born to have my cock forever planted in her sweet cunt while I pounded away breaking her in half.My cock strained in my jeans as I thought about damaging her with my cock. I wanted to break her, to abuse her, to leave make all over her body while I worshipped and admired it at the same time.Just imagining my sweet, sweet Daria, all black and blue made me as hard as a rock. Those marks will be due to all the love, lust and desires I have for her.Then out of nowhere, small sharp pain started in my chest. I frowned as I tried to rub the pain away. The sharp pain started to increase, becoming more and more painful, and I jumped out of my bed.“What the fuck!” I yelled out. Roughly I yanked my shirt over my head; looking down at my chest, a dark red spot was in the middle of
“Do you remember Mila? Do you remember how I came to be? How you help create the being that I am today; do you remember? No? Then Let me remind you. Let me remind you why you're mine and I’m yours. Why you’ll always be mine and I’ll always be yours no matter what.”1283MILA POV:I couldn’t let this happen; this couldn’t happen. He couldn’t die because of me. Guilt settle in on me as I realized that his death would be on my hands.All because of love.Before I knew it, being with Dante wasn’t just about gaining energy anymore. I’d started to grow feelings for the mortal, and that was something that was never supposed to happen. But it did and now his life is on the line. I cradled his head in my lap as I watched the waves crashed against the shore. Tears dropped from my eyes and I let them.At least I got to see him in his last moments. There was nothing I could do now.I could feel eyes staring, burning a hole in the back of my head and I just knew who it was.“What do you want fathe
ELIAS POV:“Let her go Axl!” I argued with him. But I was trapped. Stuck in my mind sitting in front row seats as my wolf choked the life out of my pup.“Not until she tells us where our mate is,” he argued. His grip only tightened on her neck and I watched her face turn colors. Her grip on my hand was becoming weaker and weaker and I can feel her heartbeat start to slow.“You're going to kill her!” I yelled at him. I was trying to gain control I really was. But his emotions and his need to find his mate was overpowering my need to save my own pup.“Whatever it takes to get our mate back and if I have to sacrifice a pup then so be it.” he told me.I saw the look in Daria’s eyes when she heard him say that. Her eyes went wide with fear and then sadness took over as her eyes started to water and tears dropped from them.The look on her face broke my heart. She was heartbroken to hear her own father say that he would gladly take her life for his mate. She dropped her hands; it was like s
