Blood and Moon: Book Two - Onyx Chapter 25
The plane ride on the private jet was smooth enough as to be expected, but I loathed flying. There was just something that felt unnatural about a vampire being the air. I was a creature of the night, meant to be on the ground and in control.Even so, we toasted to new beginnings with champagne and blood. Usually, I would have declined the blood as I only take what I need, but Elijah insisted I replenish my strength and I had been depriving myself lately, a form of punishment for my weaknesses. But no more of that. It was time to move on. Even I was imperfect, as shocking as it seemed, and I deserved some grace. I made a one-time mistake that was over with, done and in the past. To beginnings indeed.It was a few hours past dusk when we arrived. The air felt different here. It was warm and humid and salty. I stared at the large structure in front of me. So different than the place I called home. The Ventrel compound was more of an ancient castle. Not much had changed over the

There was something about a nice hot, steamy shower that just made me feel better. It was the one instance in which I preferred heat. The soft water droplets brought me calm and clarity and I felt like me again. It was as if I had washed away all my issues, even if it was only a temporary feeling. My eyes trailed over my body critiquing myself through the mirror staring at the long, black shimmery gown that hugged my curves tightly. Turning sideways, I mulled over the fact that I did not enjoy dressing in such attire, as I did not care for the lustful looks received from men and envious eyes from women, but for the time being it was necessary to appease others, and admittedly, I did look stunning. Straying from my usual long, sleek and straight hairstyle, I pinned my locks into an elegant bun, pulling some pieces down to frame my face. When I exited the shower, there had been a jewelry box on my nightstand which contained a bracelet with both black and white diamonds and a very

We sat closely in the back of our transport vehicle and even though I made it a point not to look at him, he could not keep his eyes off me. I loved watching him struggle and fight against temptation after what he had done back at the mansion. He tried to seduce me, and I almost fell for it allowing him to kiss me. After all the times he had attempted to before, he decided to use that moment to play a game. He toyed with me. Me? Oh, I would fully enjoy making him regret that decision. My skin was on full view tonight, exactly the look I was going for. I wore a black two-piece skirt set. The top was cropped with spaghetti straps and the bottom skirt was long but had two high slits showing off my long legs. I let my hair down and kept the same jewelry one, making it a point for the bracelet to be seen. Even though I was still reeling from what he had done, I could not help but to appreciate how good he looked as well. He had changed out of his suit and into somewhat more casu

Atlas' POVWhen I came back to bed after a piss, she was still there and I was fucking annoyed. I should never have let her fall asleep, but I was pretty sure she faked it in the beginning probably knowing I was planning to put her out after. Fuck and leave. That’s all I wanted. No sense in beating around the bush.I stared down at the woman I used to find attractive. Yeah, maybe she was still attractive, but I wasn’t attracted to her anymore. No matter how many women I brought to my bed, in the last few weeks no one seemed to do it for me anymore. Someone had ruined that for me. I tried to fuck her out of mind. Hell, I had tried everything to get her out my mind. Nothing seemed to work.I sighed as I climbed back onto the side of the bed into the small empty portion of the bed. I had a mind to wake her up and put her out especially when she tried to put her arm around me in a cuddle and I tossed it off quickly. I didn’t want to be touched, not by her. To be honest, I did feel bad. Sn

Atlas’ POV“And who is this?” Elijah asked motioning to Sno. His words were kind, not intrusive. He seemed only to be genuinely curious. Perfect time for introductions. “This is Sno Errendale, my future luna.” I smiled at Elijah innocently, turning to Onyx to gage her expression. Her frown deepened as she stared daggers at Sno then her eyes darted to me. I wasn’t surprised. Women were always jealous. But what was she so worked up about? She was the one who rejected me, right? Or at least that’s what she fucking thought anyway. That’s what she meant to do. I smirked, tilting my head up looking down to her tauntingly in her seated position across the table, but inside I wanted to reach out and touch her soft skin if only for a second. The bond was just as strong as ever and I needed to be near her. I was confused. Did I hate her or not?“It is nice to meet you. This is Onyx Ventrel, my betrothed and future queen.”Well, fuck. That hurt. I mean, yeah, I figured as much,

Livid. I was completely livid. I had been bombarded, and the thought of once again being caught off guard, being unprepared had me enraged. How could I have allowed this to happen? I had lowered my guard and gave into my physical desires in a moment of weakness by allowing Elijah to kiss me. In that short amount of time of being distracted for a fleeting moment, the wolf had been able to creep up to me. If he had been an enemy, things could have gone very different.The irritation and anger in his tone made it obvious he had witnessed it all. A shred of guilt had formed in my stomach, angering me even more. I despised the fact I felt remorse for simply living my life, for letting myself go. Feelings I thought I had been rid of, were slowing coming back like a long-forgotten memory. My mind was all over the place as another thought popped into my head that I would be bringing to Elijah’s attention as soon as we were alone. He had asked for me to keep an open mind, to allow him some gra

We sat in silence on the way back to the Galanis compound and all I could think of was the interaction that just transpired with the wolf. Yes, I still wished to kill the annoying-faced she-wolf, but she was no longer in the forefront of my mind at the time. Everything I had went through in the last two weeks had been for naught. The discomfort I had put myself through, the physical pain I had felt, the healing I thought had taken place, none of it meant anything the moment I saw him again.I clenched my fist thinking about how I would love to put it through the window, and I would have done just that, had I been alone. I was unsure how to proceed forward. The way his face lit up, the desire and utter need he had in his eyes in those last moments when I turned to him confirmed that I feared; that he would not give up on me until I relented. But I would never. I could never. He viewed me as some valuable treasure that he would venture to win against whatever odds he faced, but

My eyes shot open meeting the darkness. I was on high alert. My breaths were short and heavy. Something had awoken me. I felt my forehead to find a thin layer of sweat, which was odd since I was unclothed, and the room was cool. I never perspired unless being physically active.My body wanted to be somewhere else. There was a push and pull like a magnet telling me to get up, get dressed and leave. This feeling, I had felt it before. I knew what it was. He was calling to me. The wolf. Atlas. I should have known after seeing me tonight that this would happen, but what could be going on in that mind of his? He knew I was with Elijah. To be so bold to think I would go to him when I was in another’s territory… so insolent. I did not wish to see him again.Tonight was just another lapse of judgement due to my unpreparedness. I was unsure why I felt the need to glance at him once more before we parted ways, but that had refueled his fire. And now he was seeking me out as he

(FIVE YEARS LATER)Tiny voices of laughter and giggles filled the air, the most intoxicating sounds that I would never tire of. Little Atlas ran through the building chasing one of the other children. A spitting image of his father, with an attitude that was all me. I grinned at the thought. What an alpha he would grow up to be.“Mommy, he is mean to me.” A small voice spoke, tugging at the fabric on my waist. I bent down kissing Iliana on her forehead. My daughter, the sweetest and equally most manipulative little girl. Hmm. Perhaps she was also like me.“Tell me, little one, what has your brother done to upset you now?”“He did not tell me happy birthday.” She peered into my eyes with a pout on her lips. This game was one she played very well in a way that had everyone in the palm of her hands.“He did. We woke you up together this morning. Do you not remember, sleepy head?”“Well, I do not think he got me a gift then.”“He wrote you a card, a gift from the heart, which

(SIX MONTHS LATER)The sun shone down on us brightly as I basked in it while preparing for the upcoming celebration. So many were moving about frantically attempting to ensure everything was in place for tonight. Another joyous event to bring us all together.Six months had passed since the night me and Atlas began to plan for our future, and so far, everything had been going accordingly.A warm smile graced my face thinking about it all. Things had fallen into place so nicely. Everyone was in great spirits. The pack was thriving, happy, and its members were growing stronger. We were healthy, and thankful to be alive. Life was indeed enjoyable.For a time, I took over training our warriors, whipping them into shape before Arron was ready to take his place as head warrior while I fell into more luna duties.Manix and Wolfe also took their places as Atlas’ numbers one and two respectively. Admittedly, I had become quite close to those three, dare I say even friends?So many thin

The door had barely slammed closed before his lips were on mine as we fought to pull the clothes from our bodies, a race to who could get undressed first.His tongue lashed out against my neck making me throb with an explicit need. Him inside of me was the only thing I wanted in that moment.“There are a couple ways I want to see that body tonight.” He pulled back from the kiss with his fiery blue and predatorial eyes locked on me like a target.The way he looked at me with such desire and want… never had anyone made me feel so needed.“I want to hear about them.” I replied with a breathless whisper, eagerly waiting for him to tell me about the ways he would handle me.“First, I want these legs and arms wrapped around me.” His hand slid down my thighs pulling them against his naked waist firmly. I bit my bottom lip, looking between our bodies feeling him harden between my leg before my eyes slowly trailed back to his.“And then what?” “Then I’m going to lick every part of you.” He wa
Blood and Moon: Book Two - Onyx Chapter 80
Somehow, I allowed Araya to talk me into having a meeting of sorts with the females. She called it a “girls’ night.” Though, the reasoning behind it was unclear to me in the beginning, I realized later she meant to have “fun.” Unfortunately, her idea of fun tended to differ from my own, usually to include alcohol, and she was a horrible drunk.The boys were around the pack boundaries somewhere with explicit instructions not to intervene. It was very clear who ran things amongst these parts.Hours and many drinks later, we were speaking freely with loose lips.“I still can’t believe you’re with a wolf and you decided to stay here,” Lilith rolled her eyes, expressing her displeasure in my decision for the umpteenth time. “They are so very irritating. I’m unsure how you can cope.”“Oh, is that so? You seem to enjoy being irritated by one in particular.” I cocked a brow looking at her from across the table as a smirk formed on my lips.“No. That is… it is untrue. Take it back!” Her body
Blood and Moon: Book Two - Onyx Chapter 79
Atlas’ POV“Luna Onyx, good morning.” One of my wolves greeted the woman that damn near took my breath away everytime our eyes met as she walked beside me through the halls. That title sounded so good, and I would never get tired of hearing it knowing the meaning behind it.She was mine. She belonged to me, but not like some property. More like she was a part of me, a piece of my heart, like our souls were forever intertwined and I couldn’t live without her. She was the female leader of our pack and my equal, the one entrusted to give me guidance, with our safety, and someone I could lean on in every way.A real fucking queen. My queen. She replied back to him with words and a fucking cute smile of her own, a gesture that had become more frequent as the days went by. What she said, I had no clue, because like always, I was so caught up in her beauty everything else was a haze.It was hard to believe a couple of weeks had passed since that crazy night where I almost met my end and now
Blood and Moon: Book Two - Onyx Chapter 78
Atlas’ POVI’m pretty sure you’re not actually supposed to walk towards that white light, but how can you not when it’s so damn warm and welcoming?No. This wasn’t what I wanted. I didn’t want to die like some dickhead. I needed to get back to her.Something happened after I closed my eyes and allowed myself to relax. I was no longer in that dark cave lying on my back staring into the most beautiful eyes I’d ever seen as a strong weakness overcame me. So where exactly was I? Heaven or hell? My track record would indicate it should be hell, but it definitely wasn’t what I expected.Fuck. Was this really it? Did I actually die? I didn’t want to be dead. I was too handsome to die young, and there was so much unfinished business left, so many things for me to do.My family… my loved ones… my mate… I never got to spend the time with her I wanted. This wasn’t how it was supposed to be. We had so much more life to live and so much to look forward to. I had plans for us like han

“What have you done to him!?” My voice traveled through my own ears in a muffled tone as I pushed through the pain calling upon all of my strength. With blackened eyes that reflected complete hatred and disgust, I met the gaze of the three before me as I held the weakened body of the man that meant so much to me. He was all but limp within my arms, a realization that clenched my heart even tighter. Although he was still alive, he was fading fast.How could this be happening? The moment I begin to have a semblance of happiness, it is taken from me? Sno’s eyes had widened as she darted glances between the wolf I knew to be her father and the other woman who I had concluded was the witch, the very one that had inflicted this pain on me. It was still there, but I no longer cared. The only thing on my mind was saving him.“Answer me!”“So you’re still involved? Interesting.” The nameless wolf spoke. He smelled less than unpleasant, and I hated him.Ignoring his words, I stayed
Blood and Moon: Book Two - Onyx Chapter 76
Atlas’ POVMy eyes shot open, all sense of time and direction completely out of whack. I had passed out again. Was it day or night? What day even was it? It was obvious I was underground somewhere in a rocky cavern type place, and with the constant dripping and damp ground, seemed like the location was around some type of body of water.By this point, I’m sure it was known we’d been taken. Once again, I tried to link Arron and Wolfe, but nothing. Still, they seemed to be alive in some capacity since I hadn’t felt their death. Thank the gods for that at least. So far that much of what Sno said had been true.I found myself wondering if she would come back and help me, the intent to kill her somewhat dissipating. The way she left let me know she had been shaken up and I was sure a talk with her dusty dad was imminent. That fucker. He had been plotting all these years. Another power-hungry, selfish prick. I could never imagine sending my pup out to do my bidding, risking their safety in
Blood and Moon: Book Two - Onyx Chapter 75
Atlas’ POV Well, that fucking hurt. My neck was stiff, body weaker than before, and my senses were all discombobulated. What the hell was in that shit they put in my neck? It was way stronger than just pure wolfsbane. Someone was coming.Not that my vision was clear anyway, but my eyes nearly rolled into the back of my head from annoyance once they landed on the familiar approaching figure. Fucking Sno. She seriously didn’t get it. But I didn’t have much energy. Whatever they had me chained with seemed to be draining me, preventing me from using my power in addition to the injection that had just knocked me out like Tyson.She didn’t speak but her mere presence brought me back to reality. I had been captured and was being held there against my will. They wanted my power thinking it belonged to them. And that fucking bastard Anus or Ranus – oh yeah, Remus or some shit, but I didn’t really care – he insinuated he killed them, Wolfe and Arron. My warriors, my friends…Snap ou
