Natalia:“Blake, you know that the last thing I want to do is see the man” I said, walking through the forest alongside my husband who had his arm around my waist, pulling me toward the empty arena where we knew that he was waiting for our presence.The forest moving to clear the path for our arrival told us that he was waiting for us to come, and knowing that he was, I got more annoyed with each step I took.“Baby girl, I know that you don’t want this, but what better chance do we have? If Drake is playing a nasty game, then we have to be prepared. I don’t know if anyone out there is against your grandfather and wants you as dead as they want him; therefore, I want you to at least be prepared for what we’re going to face. Yes, I know that it would be hard, and yes, I know that you are still angry with him; but we don’t know the whole story, we don’t know what kind of pressure he was also under, and no, I am not defending him, I am just stating facts” Blake said as we reached the empt
Blake: I kept holding my wife’s hand as she shook her leg, listening to what Nikita had to say. The fact that we both knew that there were people out to kill the two of us didn’t make anything feel or seem any better, and knowing that my wife was in danger only made my wolf grow a lot more protective over her. “Throughout centuries, element manipulators and witches were forbidden from getting married, and it was due to this prophecy” she said, handing us a scroll. She had been searching for something for the past few minutes, and I could only assume that she found it. Natalia took it from her, and putting it on the table between the two of us, I recognized the language that it was written in as ancient Latin. “A child was to be born…” I read, looking at my wife who nodded at me to proceed “out of the blood of a witch and manipulator. That child would be both the reason for the union between magic creatures, and the end of dark magic…” “And that is not something that they want” Ni
Natalia:My head throbbed as I opened my eyes.My heart ached, and looking around the room, I couldn’t help the tears that fell from my eyes as I recalled what my grandfather, Alexander, told me.The risk that I was putting everyone through, my mate, and even my dragon…I understood now why my father chose to let his powers go. The man was fighting to protect himself and his kids. It was also why he fought to keep me hidden, and when he gave me to an orphanage, something must have been wrong if he did so. My heart ached, and sitting up, I looked at Crystal who was curled up by the fireplace. My little dragon must have been worried sick about what was to come, especially after what we heard and after our argument at home. “You don’t need to be scared, Crystal” I said, assuring her. My dragon jumped upon hearing my voice, and turning to look at me, I could swear that she took a step back despite me not moving from my place.“It was how he made him freeze before” she said, looking down
Blake:Natalia stayed quiet for a few seconds processing what I was saying before she laid back on the pillow, throwing the pillow over her head.“Nat…”“This is just getting too much, Blake” she said, stopping me “from one side, we are fighting a battle that we really have no idea where is going, and on another…”“Nat, breathe” I said, hovering my wife’s body, removing the pillow from over her face. She sighed and shook her head, her eyes meeting my own for a second, making my heart skip a beat. Her arousal’s smell suddenly filled my nostrils, and taking sight of our intimate moment, Crystal flew out of the room through the window that was open. “Blake, I don’t know what to do” she said, her voice lowering down slightly when she saw me leaning in, my lips brushing against hers for a second. Her eyes closed as she took a deep breath, processing our position before I connected my lips with hers, stopping her. I pressed my lips against hers, dominating them for a few seconds before pul
Natalia:“Nat, baby, are you sure that your back is okay? There’s still a bruise on it…”“I’m fine, Blake. It hurts, yes, but I have no better option right now, I want to be out of here as soon as I can” I said, stopping my husband as he watched me put my shirt on. He sighed but nodded, knowing that at this moment, I was right. The two of us wanted nothing more than to get out of this place, and no one could really blame us for that. We’ve been here for less than a day, and yet, here we were, already injured. “Alright, but you need to promise me that you won’t start another argument with Alexander. The last thing we need is him attacking you again, because believe me, I will be ripping his head off his shoulders” Blake said, making me laugh. I knew that it took everything in him to stay under control the other night, and that controlling his wolf was a lot harder than we ever thought that it would be. However, it was a funny game of life. Sometimes, we didn’t get to do what we wante
Blake:My heart raced against my ribcage as I saw Natalia’s father walking in front of us, facing Alexander who was furious. “Jaiden” he said coldly. Natalia and I frowned at the name; however, neither one of us commented as we listened to what was going on.“That is a name that I chose to give up a long time ago. Now, I am here to take my daughter and son-in-law back to their pack, and I give you my word that if you try to stop me, I will be sure to kill you” he said, glaring at Alexander who laughed. My eyes widened in surprise at the sight of the black tail of a small creature on his shoulder, and nudging Natalia, her own eyes widened when she caught sight of it. The dragon was on his shoulder, however, his tail was long enough to come out of his shirt. “Need I ask how you would do that? Last I checked, you were nothing but a human, and I don’t think that a human like yourself can actually afford to fight me. That is, of course, unless you wish to lose your life here and now” Ale
Natalia:I sat on the edge of the bed, staring out the window as I tried to calm myself down before I felt Blake approaching the door.He knocked on the door twice before entering the room, and wrapping his arms around me, he pulled me closer to him, hugging me tightly as he sat on the edge of the bed beside me.“I don’t even know what to say, Blake” I said, staring out the window “but this is becoming too hard for me to both accept, digest, or even process. Whenever I think that I can trust someone, they just end up stabbing me in the back” “I am guessing that this is just a twisted game of our life” Blake said, trying to calm me down. A few tears escaped my eyes before I could stop them, and tightening his arms around me, Blake purred, trying to calm me down. His purrs which usually calmed me down made me breakdown, and I didn’t know whether it was due to the many emotions that were coursing though me, or because of what happened earlier. The fact that my father was lying to me thr
Blake:The two of us walked down from the bedroom to find mum and dad sitting with Jaiden over a cup of tea. Jordan put her hand on my shoulder, squeezing it gently, silently letting me know that she was the one who called them here, and looking at Crystal who was on my beauty’s shoulder, I smiled at the fact that she was standing strong.“I take it that you have accepted to finally start talking as an adult?” Jaiden asked, not bothering to turn to look at Natalia as she took a deep breath before walking toward the loveseat that faced him. She didn’t even open her mouth to say a word, and simply staring at him, she waited for him to continue. Mum and dad looked at me, silently asking what was going on, but I shook my head, wanting them to disregard the subject for now.It amazed me how much closer we got to one another after Natalia and I grew closer. The man that I was after losing Myla was now almost nonexistent. At least, not in terms of being as cruel, hell, I don’t even think tha
