Raven

Sleeping had become a luxury for me. Restlessness ate me up throughout the night as I tossed and turned in my bed. I couldn't even shut my eyes for a moment.

I was afraid, trapped, and burdened by this secret.

I didn't know how long I could continue keeping it. The fact that Vlad was in trouble gripped my soul, and I needed to see him.

Telling my dad was useless because he would never give me the staff of authority.

The only person who could bring a hint of a solution was Dora. I spent all night thinking and thinking, racking my brain for a solution to my problems, until the morning light filtered in.

I woke up with a banging headache. It didn't help that my roommates decided to wake up that morning, yelling like banshees as they prepared for the day. I rubbed my temples, feeling a yawn escape my lips.

As the minutes ticked by, the urge to call Dora became stronger. I just wanted to break free from this suffocating web of silence and uncertainty.

"Fuck it," I thought. "I

    Raven My eyes fluttered open, and I checked the time. It was four am. The room was still flooded in darkness, and my roommates were fast asleep. I couldn't stay in bed any longer. I needed to release the restless energy in my body. Quietly slipping out of bed, I reached for my hoodie and running shoes, ensuring to be as quiet as I could, and tiptoed to the door. The hallway was dimly lit, and I headed out. It was dark except for the faint glow of streetlights and scattered moonlight filtering through the canopy of trees. The morning dew caressed my face as I began to run, my shoes hitting the pavement. I sighed as my body absorbed the energy that was drowning through my veins. I ran past the school's vicinity and didn't stop until I released all the pent-up sweat and worries. Returning to the dorm, I headed to the bathroom, turned on the cold water, and enjoyed the shock it sent through my body. After washing up, I lay on the bed. My roommates had already started getting ready for

    Lucian I headed for a meeting with the King, his whore wife, and the vermin, Dimitri. We stepped down from the never-ending limousine, heading into a huge skyscraper building. It was a meeting of all the vampire Kings in our district. King Vladislav dressed in a flowing white coat, and I followed closely in his footsteps. We headed into the magnificent house, and I looked around. Everywhere was displayed with wealth and opulence. It was crazy how these kings were rich, living in a fantasy world, wearing clothes crusted in gold. As usual, a rich show-off, treating money like firewood, and rich enough to bend reality. A lot of the women, like Elvira, had to die for porcelain skin, highly sophisticated, haughty faces with ridiculous shades of makeup. These were incredibly rich that even their sixth generation could never be poor. It pissed me off that I had lived in poverty all my life, while my dad was living in plenty and resplendence. I watched the Queen, who wore a fur dress ador

    Lucian My hand stung from the force of the slap I had just delivered, and an immediate regret made my heart bang like a drum. But something inside of me felt satisfied, knowing that Dimitri deserved the slap. His hand flew to his cheek, and he stared at me with wide-eyed disbelief. Even I couldn't believe that I had slapped him. What the hell was I thinking? A blanket of heat fell over me, and I broke into a sweat, with my knees almost threatening to give way. A tomb-like silence descended on us, except for the chirping of birds and the gentle rustling of leaves in the breeze. Dimitri's cruel mouth twisted with hate, and the fierceness of his glare glowed like an oven. "Take a deep breath. Relax, the worst has happened," my inner self said to me. My gaze darted away, my belly knotted, hoping he didn't bring out a stake and thrust it into my heart. His stare turned dark, ambushing my face. "You filthy bastard. You dare raise your hand to hit me?" "I... I'm sorry. I didn't mean t

    Raven's POV Going back to school wasn't an option. All day, I stayed in my room, haunted by the recent events that have left their mark on my tired, restless soul. Wasn't I too young for these compounding problems surrounding me? All the accusations and worries threatened to steal my sanity. If I continued this way, wrinkles and high blood pressure would hit me before I clocked twenty. Clarissa was in the hospital with Nova when my dad returned, knocking gently on my door. "Honey, are you okay?" His concerned voice seeped through the door. I responded with silence, staying on my bed. His knocks grew more insistent. "Raven, come on, talk to me, honey." His pleading tone and heartfelt apology almost made my heart soften, but I didn't want to see him. My dad was a good man, the best father I could ever ask for, but knowing how impulsive he could get, he'd probably end up screwing things up or make me cry. "Honey, I'm sorry about yesterday. I know the recent happenings have been ha

    Raven, Dora's head tilted, and her gaze met mine, breaking into a smile and waving like a child on Christmas morning. My legs felt like lead. I stood there, not knowing whether to turn around and gallop out of there or brace up and go to them. My breathing felt compressed, like two hippos with a chest cold. I wasn't foolish to mistrust them. They were vampires, after all, and I had no idea what they were up to. The almost empty coffee shop had only a handful of patrons, old men arguing over politics. Gradually, I approached them and played it cool, glazing at Vlad's twin like a wolf in a trap. My eyes surveyed for any escape route when he swung around and shove upright like he was sitting on a cactus when our eyes met. His mouth widened in alarm like one who'd seen a ghost. Dora must either be telling the truth or they were damn good actors. I would go for the latter one. "Come on," Dora gestured with her hands. I approached them, giving Vlad's twin a crisp nod, and slipped int

    Lucian My mind wobbled with lots of thoughts. Dora and Raven's expectant gazes were on me, waiting for me to speak. The pressure was too much, and I didn't know what to do or think. "Listen, guys, this is not as easy as you think. First of all, that place is filled with lots of Dimitri's bad men. Secondly, Dimitri doesn't trust me anymore. And thirdly, even Vlad himself hated me the last time I tried to see him. He beat me so hard." "We know all of this, but there's no harm in attempting to at least try. You need to help us get Vlad out of there, not just for his life but for the life of the kingdom." Raven was staring at me. I could tell she didn't trust me, and she had every right not to. All I wanted was for this to end. I was surprised and even ashamed that she knew I was a phony all along. After about an hour of planning and strategizing, darkness descended upon us. "Here's what you should do. Don't attempt to hide, because that would rouse their suspicion. Go through the ma

    Raven My heart pounded like a frightened bird, racing to escape, as I ran through the night. The darkness was consuming, making the hairs on my nape raise with raw fear, but I moved swiftly along, ignoring my rising panic. The area was a vampire coven, so I couldn't shift into my wolf. I had to trust my human gut feeling and continue running. "What if something goes wrong? What if Vlad has been caught? What if you die?" Several nasty thoughts kept flying in, causing me to get frightened beyond measure, but I put a fire under my feet, attempting to lighten my mood with the hope of seeing Vlad tonight. "I'll see Vlad tonight," I chanted like a mantra. I hastened because it was almost midnight. The hotel Lucian recommended didn't seem to be popular. I stopped to take a breath when I began seeing spots in my vision and closed my eyes, taking a deep breath to regain control. A screech made me jolt into motion and I staggered slightly, my breathing unstable, and scrunched my nose i

    Raven Vlad grinned at me and our breaths mixed hotly. It was an intimate moment for us as we forgot about our problems and focused on each other, savoring the warmth and peacefulness that emitted between us. My legs felt like jelly after he made me orgasm so hard. Vlad leaned back, breathing heavily and stroking my arm. "That was… wonderful." I nodded with a satisfied smile and my heart slammed with love for him. "You're so beautiful," his breath came in soft pants. " I still can't believe you're here by my side and I'm not in that fucking Manor. It feels like a dream." He stopped smiling and his face held a whiff of bitterness in it. I kissed him, whispering gently to him. "You're out and I'm the happiest person alive right now." He broke into a small, tight smile, trying hard not to ruin the moment but I could see the string on his face as he held himself from ranting. I straddled him and kissed his anger away. Despite the surplus of problems we were facing, Vlad made me f

    JalenThe overpowering smell of old, musty leather filled my dad's beat-up sedan, and the sound of his angry voice rose above the roar of the engine as he scolded me for shifting into my beast form. Tension filled the car, and my anger radiated off me in waves."Is it such a difficult task to control yourself in public? Have you never seen a girl before that you had to shift into your beast form? Now everyone in the pack will yap about how my son was aroused by a stupid werewolf.""I wasn't aroused by her," I lied, trying to defend myself, but he was too far gone in his rage to listen."Griffin, please hear him out. There may be other reasons why he shifted, and besides, Jalen can't be attracted to that spoiled brat.""Oh, shut up," my dad barked at my mom, who had stepped in to try and calm the situation. "That's all you do, make fat and silly excuses for him. He never does anything right. I'll be retiring in a year, and I don't even know the future of our pack."She sat in silence,

    Clarissa I fell to the stage, surrounded by flashing cameras and concerned faces, I couldn't believe what had just happened. My heart was racing and I was hyperventilating, trying to process the fact that a Lycan was my mate.All around me, my family rushed to my side, trying to help me up and calm me down. My mother's caked-on makeup was smudged with sweat, a proof to her concern and worry. And all around, people were talking and trying to make sense of what was happening. 'Breathe, Rissa,' I encouraged myself, breathing out of my nostrils.Why was the moon goddess doing this to me? My brain couldn't process this at all. I'd been mateless for twenty-three years only to become a forbidden Lycan's mate?Fucking great!My mum squeezed my hand to comfort me. She was going to keep blaming me for months for disgracing her. "Here, sip some water," she said. My brother, Bryon, held my head while my dad checked my temperature. I felt lightheaded and was breathing quickly, inhaling and exh

    EpilogueSix years later "Raven, my love, ever since I met you, I've fantasized about this moment," Vlad's voice trembled with emotion. "I can't imagine a world without you. We have everything we need – money, a loving family, and a future ahead. Please, baby, will you marry me?"Caught off guard by Vlad's proposal, I burst into tears, turning to mush and ruining my perfectly done makeup."You naughty boy! Why didn't you tell me about this," I blubbered, hitting his shoulder? His perfect dentition broke into a killer smile, as my head bobbed in a yes. "Of course, I'll marry you," my heart sang with delight. "you own me after all.""I owe you my life," he said and I threw myself at his arms. He wrapped them tight around me, the smell of his cologne and our mating bond engulfing me and sending shivers down my spine. Gently, he slipped a Tiffany style round cut engagement ring onto my third finger, and the diamondsglinted brightly against my skin. "So this is why that silly girl, Ta

    Raven The Doctor and King Vladislav walked in slowly, with the king standing beside me.I sobbed uncontrollably to the point that I began seeing spots and my vision became blurred, and I could hardly see the people in front of me anymore. The king's eyes were clouded with sadness and regret. I could feel the pressure building in my throat, making my breathing feel constricted. "Raven, please don't cry. You have done enough. Let's just say goodbye to Vlad.""Goodbye?" I spat, and he took a step back. "How will I do that? How do you expect me to say goodbye to my mate? My partner for life!""Raven, Vlad is my son," King Vladislav said with a resigned tone. "I feel so hopeless right now. But we have to face reality. Hybrids are different from humans and werewolves. The earlier we accept the reality that Vlad can never regain consciousness, the better for everyone. False hopes and delusions will get us nowhere."The king's voice cracked. "Please understand, Raven." I stumbled forward,

    Raven On the night of day six, I couldn't sleep. My mind was restless like a rolling stone and I kneeled by Vlad's bedside, begging him with everything in me.King Vladislav had begun preparing for Vlad's funeral. According to him, Vlad deserved a befitting burial. How could anyone be comfortable burying their child?My tongue felt swollen. I was helpless and needed a miracle for Vlad. He was the only thing that brought joy and light to my life.The king was broken. All he did was mope and answer questions with monosyllables. Reality had begun to hit him but matter how much I begged him to extend the date, he didn't budge."Raven, there's nothing we can do. This is pure torture," his voice choked. "Let him rest.""Vlad, my love," I gripped his hand. "Did you hear your father? Is this what you want, to be buried? Talk to me. Wake up before they turn off the life support. Come back to me. Don't leave me, please. Just come back!"The answer I got was the beep of the machine and Vlad's s

    RavenI couldn't sleep all night, and all I kept thinking about was Vlad. It was so bad that when I finally managed to drift off to sleep, it was filled with nightmares of them burying Vlad and all our classmates placing flowers at his gravesite. I felt even worse when I woke up, rolling over to face the wall and pulling my knees tight against my chest. The darkness of the night wasn’t comforting enough for the pain in my heart. The silence didn’t help either. What if Vlad never makes it? What if he doesn't come back to life? And then the memories from my dreams replayed over and over again in vivid detail. Taylor never left my side and even shared my bed with me. She sat up, staring at me with sympathy in her green eyesMy head rested on her shoulder as she whispered soothing things into my ear while rubbing my arms and whispering ‘It's okay’ every few minutes.At one point, she had to go out and make me some hot chocolate because I had started shivering so badly.

    Raven On day three of my stay in the specialist hospital, I had to return to school to write an important test that couldn't be written online. It was the last screening part to get admitted to college."You need to go," King Vladislav pleaded with me. "You're young and have a full life ahead of you. Vlad wouldn't want you to waste your time here and spend a year doing nothing just because you missed your college entrance exam." He paused to let his words sink and sadly, he was right. It was a good thing that I had been accepted into the best college program on campus on a full scholarship. My dad was wealthy enough to train me but that didn't mean I should waste his money on tuition. I sighed and the King begged me to stop making excuses. "you've got to graduate, Raven. I'm here with Vlad and you can always come back whenever you wish.""I don't trust you enough," I muttered. I don't know what you'll end up doing the second I step my foot out the door.

    LucianI'd seen too much, witnessed too many painful scenes. I returned home, terrible regrets and guilt assailing me. Vlad's condition was my fault. I let out a choked, desperate laugh. The king was so mad at me that he couldn't stand my presence. He hated me so much. Blood pounded in my temples as I felt humiliated and deflated remembering the disgraceful way he sent me away from the hospital. Not that I blamed him anyway. I deserved to be ridiculed. Everything was all my fault. If I hadn't fallen for Dimitri's stupid antics, I would have exposed him instead and saved my brother.Now Vlad's blood was forever spilled on my hands. It made me want to cry like a baby.How could I have been so stupid? How was I so careless as not to recognize how evil Dimitri really was? When I returned home, that wicked bitch, Elvira, was nowhere to be found. She could run, but she was definitely not going to hide forever. She was the mastermind of all this calamity and the reason why my mother d
