Biel

The moment we landed at the entrance to the magic trail, I knew that betrayal had overtaken us in a terrifying way.

I thought that somehow Nadine had been tracked to the Fairy Wasteland, but seeing Taina's torn body a few meters away, hidden in some bushes, and seeing Samir wounded made me understand that someone from our group had been the traitor.

We had fallen away from the entrance, so we had a clear view of the panorama, something Aris didn't seem to see, so Drago roared, and Aris turned to see us, so I nodded, and we crept up to Nadine, who seemed to be furious.

I didn't want to imagine her reaction when she saw Taina's throat slit; that was when Aris approached me subtly, once we were close.

“Is anyone dead?” the vampire asked in a whisper, and I nodded, “I smell blood very strongly, but I know Samir is fine, wounded, but unconscious.”

“It's the elf,” I replied in a whisper. “Someone killed her.”

Aris looked at me in surprise, then Drago roared again, and I knew he had sur

    Part III. The siege of the shadowsNadineI was terrified to see the amount of blood that Biel was coughing up, but when I saw him fade away, terror gnawed at me. What he had just experienced with Drago did not compare to seeing death stalking the captain of the guard; it was a thousand times worse.We landed near the northern mountain range, right on the spot where I had first shifted.“This place is too cold for Biel!” I said quickly, and Drago placed him on the ground, then Aris and Connor carried him while Drago turned dragon.“Wait here; I'll come get you,” Connor said, and Lion denied."I apologize, but due to the captain's injuries, I—"“This isn't about the temple or the Equilibrium Order,” Aris said annoyed. “This is about saving Biel's life.”“Don't take him to shelter,” Samir said earnestly. “The captain doesn't have that much time; he needs medical attention immediately and for Nadine to activate the link to him; otherwise, he's going to die.”Hearing Samir drove me crazy,

    NadineI watched as the shadows enveloped my mates and pushed them away from me because I was turning into darkness. My body was ceasing to exist, my mind had turned to butter and Alister's eerie laughter was the backdrop to my madness.I took a deep breath and then Aris shook me, which made me react.“What did you see to make you so upset?” the vampire asked and I started to deny; however, Drago squeezed my hand calmly to give me comfort.“It was bad or you weren't crying; tears of joy are easy to identify,” the dragon said and his words shook me.I was going to respond, but Rose came in with a large tray of food.“I hope you eat, Nadine; my grandson and these fools have been clawing at the walls on the verge of a nervous breakdown that I don't want to deal with,” Rose said. “Inna had to calm them down after beating the crap out of them, so please eat as much as you can and pull yourself together.”I looked at Aris and Drago, surprised to learn that surprising fact.“They fought with

    ArisNadine felt too much.Her feelings used to be a balm for me, but that moment when she felt overwhelmed, I could do nothing but act to make the uneasiness she felt much less.What I did not imagine was that, when I kissed her, I was going to feel like an anxious child.I had to facilitate a couple of important talks with our linked group to respect not only Nadine's time but our own time. What Biel had done was just an explosion of his desperation; however, he had overstepped any boundaries.I heard the door open and Rose said something to Nadine; then she walked into the kitchen and saw me with a frown on her face.The woman adored me; she just liked to pick on me because it was fun.“What did you do to her?” asked Rose and I smiled at her.“She's like this because of what I didn't do to her,” I said loosely and Rose patted me on the shoulder.“You're incorrigible,” she said and sighed. “I need advice on something, but I don't want you to tell Connor yet; I need to address it bef

    NadineI kept the men trapped in the shadows, but it wasn't me they really feared after the initial shock of knowing my power; their fear really lay in Aris, who suddenly rolled his eyes and started doing something I couldn't understand.The men started screaming all at once, as if they were being hurt badly and then I realized that what Aris was doing had to do with his telepathic powers.Connor returned to his human form, and so did the wolves around us.A couple of pack guards appeared wearing handcuffs with power-annulling runes, but these particular ones were made of moonstone and from what I could smell, they had aconite essence.The guardians were looking for all the ways to restrict the rogues' powers in a hurry.When Connor nodded, I released the shadows and the guards proceeded to seize all the rogues in a hurry. Whatever Aris was doing was helping them, then the men fell unconscious on the floor and I looked at my mate with many doubts about his powers.Aris was no simple e

    NadineWe let more than five hours go by until the fucker in the interrogation room started screaming. That was like music to my ears, and then I got up from the waiting room we were sitting in and Aris grabbed my hand.“Let him scream for another hour; its desperation will make him talk from the door,” the vampire said and I smiled at him. “If he really has people kidnapped as he says, he will scream very loudly.”I nodded, and to my surprise, Biel entered the room where I was waiting with my other mates. He walked with difficulty, as if the magical blow still really hurt him.“What the hell are you doing here?” I asked him annoyed.Biel's relief at seeing me jolted me, but I kept my stance fixed and unwavering.Seconds later, Samir ran up to where we were standing swearing.“I told him he shouldn't come here; he has to lie down right away; he's not fit to walk yet,” Samir said and I crossed my arms.Biel looked at him with annoyance, as if hearing him say those words was a damn prob

    ConnorI didn't like to get away from Nadine.I would take a trip south of Lunarius, right on the border with the Chozora Forest, original home of the bear shifters. They weren't our best friends, but they were decent neighbors who didn't get involved in anyone else's business.That's why I was surprised that Ophelia had enough connections to take refuge in that forest.“We have the meeting in a few minutes,” Drago said. “I've known the lead generation of family bears for millennia. They all deal directly with me when they go to Dragis.”“Do you think they will cooperate?” I asked, and Drago nodded.“They will,” said the high priest.Lion had decided to come with us as the authority of the Equilibrium Order, along with Jackson, who was the highest-ranking guardian after Biel.While the order did not act directly in the cooperation policies of the autonomous territories, it could intervene if it created conflict in the region or suspected alliances of anarchists.Soon the bears arrived

    Nadine“Nadine, wake up!” exclaimed Biel in a hurry.I awoke to find my shadows filling the room like a cocoon of protection to the point of completely isolating us from the rest of the world. I frowned and then saw Biel standing beside me, looking in the direction of the door.His worried expression set me on edge.“What's going on?” I asked him.“There are strangers who have tried to enter the house,” Biel said and I looked at him sleepily, not quite understanding the situation. “More people have come to Raptart, and these ones are indeed well trained, unlike the rogues you caught. I guess your shadows sensed the danger and that's why they have isolated us, but we must help the wolves in the pack and Drago. It smells of dark magic.”Biel's words set me on edge.Please, shadows, show me what's going on outside, I whispered patiently.Biel watched as the shadows retreated, leaving only a small, almost transparent gray layer that let everything into the hallway. Inna was fighting like

    ConnorThe evidence against Ophelia was heartbreaking.The bears sent to the herd everything they collected from her hideout, which turned out to date back years, many more years than I would have guessed. It was amazing what this woman was hiding. It felt like Pandora's box had been opened and a storm was about to break.And that was a minimal description, from a human story, to simplify the shit that had to be studied from that evidence. Every bit of power used in each of the objects she hid had to be analyzed, but the confirming evidence of my family's death was videos of the failed spells she tried to cast.That left me bad, so bad that my grandmother went to see what was wrong with me, and it was Nadine, as beautiful as she could be, who helped me confront the situation.I had no choice but to sit my grandmother down gently to break the news to her.“What's wrong, Connor?” My grandmother asked with a frown, as if she knew what was going to happen.Nadine at that point squeezed my

    BielNadine was devastated.The news that people she loved but couldn't get involved with out of fear were dead was devastating. She felt completely guilty about what had happened, and the worst part was that it hurt her not to have shared in the people at the club. They all seemed like good people, but Nadine was forced to push them away until she couldn't do it with Elle.That was what hurt Nadine the most, and she wondered how it was that Aria had poked around so much to find out everything. She was afraid for the good people who had once helped her. Connor and Aris had to calm Nadine down to explain that there was no one to blame but Aria.The woman's name made me sick and very angry.She was a legendary figure in the Temple.Her wit had been part of great attacks, but she had never shown herself or been directly involved in committing an anarchist attack until that day. Aria had left the note for Nadine and had intentionally watched the surveillance cameras in order to have the

    NadineDrago returned with two trays of food.There was everything on the trays, so I didn't hold back and ate with great eagerness because I was famished. My mates were silent as they watched me eat so enthusiastically, so I put the cutlery aside and folded my arms.“Is something wrong?” I asked with a frown, and they denied.“No, nothing's wrong,” Connor said before giving me a kiss on the head.“Then I don't understand why you guys are so quiet,” I said calmly.“The four of us just had the same thought, Nadine,” Biel said mischievously. “We think you look beautiful eating, and that sex suits you wonderfully.”My cheeks immediately turned red, and Aris burst out laughing.“For a tough woman, you have trouble with compliments,” Aris said, and I threw a piece of bread in his face.“It's not funny,” I said before I sighed and lifted my shoulders. “I'm not used to compliments or cuddles, but I can tolerate cuddles pretty easily.”They laughed because the reality was that I could easily

    NadineDrago's dragon was overwhelming.There was no other way to perfectly translate what was happening.His kisses felt like boiling lava, and my body was receiving them with pleasure.My mouth molded to the movement of Drago's mouth with nothing but desire and devotion for him and his dragon; however, that moment was interrupted by Biel.“Drink some brew,” Biel said, and Drago proceeded to ignore him to kiss my neck and make me moan loudly. “Drink the brew, Drago, or I'll draw a rune to freeze your fucking ass. Drink the brew; we have to take care of Nadine.”I turned to look at Biel in surprise; the dragon raised his face in anger but took the potion Biel was offering in a second. That gesture made the others relax.The captain of the guardians smiled, and after that, along with Connor and Aris, took the brew he had made earlier. I finished turning and looked at my mates heatedly, but with a frown on my face due to confusion.“Why didn't you give me contraceptive brew?” I asked be

    NadineThe Temple had opened an official investigation in Lunarius.The level of corruption in the case of the Vanir family, Ophelia's family, was too strong to be ignored, and so they were going to start the investigation in the Eclipse Pack and then make sure that the other packs were not affected. The Temple was going to follow the protocols of the federal laws of the continent respecting the primitive laws of Lunarius.That was what gave the wolves peace of mind.They did not like people meddling in their affairs; however, seeing the level of out-of-control created by Ophelia and her father, they found themselves having to accept the Temple's meddling. They had no choice.Connor felt responsible and guilty for what had happened.He, being an Alpha, should have been careful about the workings of the council, but inexperience made him trust the people he had grown up with over the years. He never suspected that the older people he respected so much would stab him in the back.The sa

    NadineI was itching to have my shadows kill the pack council, and Becca was bloodthirsty; she herself wanted to go out and rip their throats out.Just let me come out for a moment to show them who I am, my she-wolf Becca said angrily.I ignored her for everyone's sake, especially Connor's.And it was Connor's expression of disappointment that made us want to attack the jerks who had the audacity to make our mate feel so bad. He was not a weak man; on the contrary, he was very strong mentally, and that was one of his best attributes; however, we hated to see him sad.When we left the council room, Connor wanted to get away, so I let him have some space to go into the woods.“Is he going to be okay?” asked Biel to Aris.“Connor is resilient; he's been through a lot since his family died, so he's going to be fine. He just has to adjust to his new reality,” Aris said with sadness in his voice.That truth was a harsh reality check.After that we went to the shelter.Since the legal proces

    ConnorThe tension in the pack council room was intense.Many of the people who had one day reached out to me and urged me to become Alpha were there, but unlike that time when they smiled at me because I was just a scared young man, now they all looked at me with annoyance.“Only you can go in, Connor,” said Counselor Pier.It was hard to know what he had fallen for in the foolishness of playing along with Ms. Susy; it was depressing, not to mention disappointing, but I had to be blunt and direct.“My family can come in,” I said temperately.The mark on my wrist, which I shared with Nadine, Aris, Biel, and Drago, glowed again. In that instant, no one could ignore the divine sign. One of my grandmother's friends got up from her chair and approached us in bewilderment.“Is that a blessing from the gods?” the older woman asked, and I nodded. “It can't be.”At that moment a general murmur began in the room, and Nadine reached over to squeeze my hand. I really liked the fact that my mate

    Part IV. Dichotomy of loveNadineWhere is the sacred cloak?That was the thought that haunted my mind for the next three days of intense research we had on the cursed divine object. We had our noses stuck in the books.It was tiring.The worst part was that my mother hadn't shown up as she had warned, and the damn god who had created me hadn't given me a valuable clue. It was depressing, so I just hoped I'd have some great insight into it like I'd had with the Enchanted Forest, but it seemed like fate was kicking me in the ass.I sighed as I closed the last children's storybook.I was fed up with the situation.“Go get some rest, Nadine,” Lion said. “You're doing nothing but upsetting our nerves here.”I raised my eyebrows in surprise and then wearily shook my head.Whether I liked to admit it or not, Lion was right.“Well, I'm off,” I said before getting up. “If anything happens, please tell me.”The priests nodded, and I walked bound for my room, but then I sensed a deep concern co

    NadineAlister tried to get out of the prison, but I had my shadows catch him.“Why do you want to run away quickly?” I asked mockingly.“I have the power to finish you off,” Alister said.“And why don't you do it right now?” I questioned defiantly. “You don't kill me because you can't do it, and just now you feel afraid because I have the power. You are terrified to think what power it is that I hide, and truth be told, you should be terrified of me right now.”Alister stood up straight and looked at me haughtily.“You think you can kill me, but the truth is you can't because you know the Anarkhia Order would retaliate in a violent way, and I can swear to you that my killing you will make you suffer in spades,” the vampire said earnestly.It could be true; however, I would have to deal with that later; just at that moment, my thirst for revenge was much greater.“I don't care what the Sons of Anarchy do after they kill you; right now I just want to make you pay for slitting my mother

    NadineOutside the Enchanted Forest, the gloom was the prelude to disaster.There was no other appropriate description for what my eyes saw once we all got off Drago's back. My dragon mate, seeing the chaos, decided to remain in his primal form, and I didn't blame him. The guards and priests guarding the gate that protected the Enchanted Forest were fighting with all their might against the children of anarchy. There were hundreds of anarchist men and women of all kinds invoking dark magic and attacking all the caretakers of the forest.The worst thing about that scene was that there was one person who was enjoying that event very much. He was so much enjoying it that he couldn't help but smile, showing all his teeth.Alister was observing everything from the top of a tree, as if he were the king of the world.“This is bad,” Lion said anxiously, and I identified with his words. “I don't understand how the priests didn't set off the displacement alarm so they could flee, and the templ
