Claws of Stone WHAT ARE FRIENDS FOR?
Rebecca’s storyI was so hurt. If the wound was physical, I could have healed it, but it was deep in my soul and it hurt like hell. And the worst of it was that there was no healing. I urgently needed someone to be near me. And I didn’t mean someone from the agency. I meant a loyal friend that I missed. I wondered if she was in town? I was so happy when she answered on the first call and recognized my voice immediately. It had been so many years.“Samantha…” That was all I could come up with. The excitement was so strong that it drowned me.“Becca? Is that you, love?” I had missed that sound so much. I was instantly choking back tears, so Sam kept talking. “Darling, I know it’s you. Please talk to me or you’ll worry me,” she continued to speak to me in the same worried tone. Finally, I could say something. “Sam... yes, it’s me... and I need you. Please tell me you’re in New York.” Samantha was a travel fanatic, so it would be a genuine miracle if she were here. She spent a lot of
Claws of Stone STAY OUT OF MY LIFE!
Rebecca’s storyToday I decided it was time to resume one of my old habits. Especially since I hadn’t done it in a long time and my muscles were fading, not to mention my physical condition. Around my house was a small, dense forest where I used to run in the early hours of the morning before the attack. That’s exactly what I was preparing to do now. I suited up, put my headphones in my ears and confidently set off slowly into the woods. From the very first running steps, my legs felt it. It was to be expected. Don’t despair, Rebecca, things will get better, I kept telling myself with each step. But as I went further into the woods, my body, which was no longer in shape, failed me. I found a bench and rested for a few minutes. I struggled to believe that I couldn’t run at least one mile. No, I couldn’t give up that easily. I gathered all my remaining strength and set off again. Only this time, everything around me went dark. I was struggling to stay on my feet, but it was no use. Th
Claws of Stone MY DEMONS
Dominic’s storyFrom the moment Rebecca left, she called me one more time and confirmed that she was just coming by to pick up her ID. She said she would need it. I was okay with that, just that I didn’t really want to stand in her way when that happened. Just the thought of her being in the company of that troglodyte Logan was throwing me off my normal rhythm. All my life I had avoided letting the wolf out of my body, but now it was too much. It’s getting out of control again. To free myself, I decided to let him loose at least for a few hours. There was nobody around anyway. And I was boiling inside like the flames of hell.Then it started. My bones cracked, my jaw lengthened, revealing my sharp fangs. Then the claws and slowly my body got covered in black fur.He was out. I ran wild and aimlessly. It wasn’t so late, and the couples were already out for their evening walk. The dark forest looked like a ghost. I was trying to avoid the alleys because I didn’t want to meet people or
Claws of Stone THERE WAS SILENCE
Dominic’s storyI was about to make the biggest mistake of my life. But I couldn’t control myself. I knew Rebecca was there, soaking in the hot water, as droplets trickled down her luscious body. The body I dreamed about day and night. It had brought me to the brink of madness. There was nothing clean left in my thoughts, and I cursed myself for letting things get this far. I intended to call Declan, but I couldn’t seem to dial the number. The demons inside me had a life of their own. They couldn’t be contained. They had to be fed.I ran my hands through my now sweaty hair, chasing away all the guilty and sinful thinking I had about her. She was so pure that I wouldn’t allow my mind to wander in that direction. Despite all our short history, I was one hundred percent sure she wanted me as much as I wanted her. Therefore, my rational side said I should do this in an easy and humane way. But what should I do with the beast waiting to surface, stalking like a predator? She was a fragile
Claws of Stone SOMETHING WASN'T RIGHT
Rebecca’s storyI just got home, but I shouldn’t have gotten in his shower. I didn’t even know Dominic was home. He told me he wouldn’t be. I called Logan as soon as I got out and postponed the meeting. I called Sam instead. She arrived at the same time I did.“My God, Becca, what happened to you?” she asked me worriedly, seeing me arrive with wet hair and totally confused. I didn’t answer her anything, but walked shakily towards the door. I barely unlocked it. I left the documents on the dining room table and Sam followed me quietly. With a towel, I soaked my hair a little and immediately made two coffees. The storm Dominic stirred up inside me was giving me a hard time breathing. I was devastated and hurt at the same time. But if I was to be honest, I never felt fear during what happened. On the contrary, I experienced the most consuming desire ever. I just knew he would not hurt me. He loved me. Even without telling me the three magic words, I could sense that. And the whole time
Claws of Stone THE PAST RETURNS
Dominic’s storyI was so stupid. How could I do such a thing? How could I not have tamed myself and this wolf that was getting the best of me? They were questions that drove me crazy and no matter how hard I would try to find justification for what I had done to Rebecca, I would sink deeper into guilt. Today I took a break from my struggle and rehearsed a few scenes from the new film. Nick, as always, was effective, but I was losing focus. I was forgetting lines, or messing them up. I couldn’t concentrate on what I had to do. Even the co-actor who was rehearsing with me saw that something was wrong, so he brought Nick into the picture immediately. “What’s the matter with you, Dominic? Alec told me you’re having trouble concentrating? Are you okay, man?” Nick was really worried.“Can we take a break?” “Of course. Come, let’s go to the cafeteria set up by the film crew. There’s nobody there now.” I followed him in silence, and we had a cup of coffee. Mine was a double. Even if I’d h
Claws of Stone I FELT...PAIN
Rebecca’s storyToday I was meeting a good friend, and it wasn’t Samantha. It was someone who had been by my side during the hard days when death had almost made its home inside my body. Eve Adams was in my hospital days as my mother. I met her during my stay there, but briefly. In fact, I got to know her during my walks in the nearby park. I kind of kept a close connection with her. When I needed an escape, I would come to her house. She lived so close to mine. I just needed this escape because lately, Dominic’s presence had been shaking me and my entire existence. It was so hard to be around him when all I wanted to do was kiss him, make love to him, and then repeat all of that. I wasn’t ashamed to admit it, especially after his outburst from yesterday. I couldn’t resist him.My heart and soul ached so much for not being able to fulfill my dreams. My reality was so harsh that sometimes I just didn’t understand it. There were days when he was so present, so involved with me, and da
Claws of Stone I AM HIS LUNA
Rebecca’s storyI could hear Eve’s words, but to believe them was impossible. It was like listening to my grandmother’s bedtime story.“Look, I know it’s hard for you to believe me, but I swear I’m not lying. Dominic is in danger.” She repeated to me, pressing the words. And just then, a frantic, uncontrollable laughter erupted from the depths of my soul. I didn’t mean to laugh like that, but it was sounding ridiculous. “Excuse me, but 100 years ago, werewolves, you and Dominic, all of this overwhelmed me,” I justified my laughter then Eve took a step back. “Jane was only 16 when a wolf the size of the ones that attacked you took her life. She and Dominic were in love, but my husband, Zack Barnett, never agreed. But I admired their devotion, the love they shared apart from our eyes. It was the only way they could express themselves. Neither Dominic nor Jane were werewolves, they were humans. The day Jane died, Zack ordered me killed, too, only I don’t know by what power I escaped. H

Claws of Stone EPILOGUE
REBECCAIt was a breathtaking afternoon; the sun radiating its warm golden rays upon the vast field that stretched out before us. Anticipation filled my body as I stood there, my eyes fixed on the horizon, eagerly waiting for the one I loved, Dominic.Just when I thought it would never answer my longing, there he appeared as if the very fabric of nature had responded to my call. As he emerged from the shadows, Dominic’s appearance shifted, and he transformed into his magnificent werewolf form. The sight of him was simply breathtaking, with his powerful muscles and shiny fur. It glimmered in the sunlight, leaving me momentarily speechless. As I gazed into his eyes, I noticed the sun filled them with an ethereal light that seemed to shine from within him. Our eyes locked onto each other’s, and in that moment, we communicated a profound connection that went beyond what words could express.Immediately and with no delay, I strode confidently towards him, feeling my heart thumping with a
Claws of Stone CLOSURE
REBECCAI groaned softly as I slowly opened my eyes, the harsh hospital lights piercing through my dizziness. Blinking a few times, I tried to gather my strength, but everything seemed hazy, like a jumbled puzzle. It took a moment for the fog to lift, and as my vision cleared, I saw Dominic and Declan sitting by my side, their worried faces etched with relief.“What happened?” I said, my voice weak and unfamiliar to my own ears. Dominic leaned forward, his hand gently clasping mine.“You were kidnapped, Rebecca,” he said, his voice filled with a mix of concern and anger. “Zack, that deranged… man, he took you and... and he almost killed you.”Dominic’s words had a chilling effect on me as a shiver ran down my spine. Kidnapped? Almost killed? Although the hospital surroundings were all too real, it felt like a nightmare that I couldn’t wake up from. Despite my best efforts, I found it difficult to recollect the series of events that led up to this moment, as my memory seemed to be a ch
Claws of Stone FINAL BATTLE
DOMINICAs I stood before the looming fortress that belonged to the notorious and ruthless Zack Burnet, I couldn’t help but feel a surge of invincibility coursing through my veins. The desolate landscape around me matched the emptiness inside my heart, and I knew I had come here alone for a reason. It wasn’t because I lacked allies or help in my mission to rescue Rebecca, the woman I loved. No, it was because I believed that Zack Burnet owed me a debt that only I could collect.In my teenage years, I had been engaged to Jane, but the actions of her father, Zack Burnet shattered our blissful future. He was a man consumed by power and darkness, and his reckless pursuits had cost me the life of my beloved Jane. It was a wound that festered deep within me, driving me to seek vengeance and justice. And now, as I gazed upon his forsaken fortress, I knew that the time for reckoning had come.The wind howled through the barren landscape, a haunting symphony that echoed my determination. With
Claws of Stone THE WEIGHT OF THE TRUTH
DOMINICIt was surreal; I couldn’t wrap my head around it. The anger and sadness inside me were like a tempest, tearing through my veins. My number one enemy, Zack Barnett, had done the unthinkable—he had kidnapped Rebecca. The evidence was overwhelming, leaving no doubt in my mind that he was the culprit. He had always despised me, always found pleasure in tormenting me, and now he had taken away the one person who meant the world to me.“So you are positive it was that bastard, Zack?” Declan asked, rubbing his jaw.“I am sure of it as I am sure of every breath I take. Now, I have another problem. I’ve been called to the agency in an emergency.” “Why?” “Apparently the head of the intelligence agency has been kidnapped and is nowhere to be found,” The one person who had believed in me from the beginning, who had seen the potential in me and given me the chance to become the best agent I could be, was now in danger.“However, his identity was and still is a secret, Dominic. What are
Claws of Stone IN THE MIST
Rebecca’s storyThe time during which I was unconscious was a mystery to me. Suddenly, my surroundings were engulfed in pitch black darkness, immediately following a sharp blow that I felt on the back of my head. I was currently being held captive, unable to see because of a blindfold, and my whereabouts, unknown to me, but I was confident that God was aware of my circumstances. The captors had me bound with my hands tied behind my back and also secured to a chair, rendering me immobile. As I struggled to release myself from the rope, the rough texture had caused pain and discomfort to my hands and feet.All I could remember was Dominic’s party premiere and the huge, senseless fight I had with him. The questions he asked me and the way he looked at me in pain got me into this mess. I needed to stay focused and alert so I could find out who my captor was. Because one thing I knew for sure about this strange situation was that someone kidnapped me.As soon as the musty odor reached my
Claws of Stone SOMETHING BAD
Rebecca’s storyI’d had enough of his jealousy and his stupid impression that he owned me. Nobody owned me. I controlled my own destiny.All this stuff had to stop here and now. “What the hell is wrong with you? You think because you had me and marked me, I’m yours forever?” I shouted, hurt and angry because he was treating me just like a puppet. But nothing prepared me for his incomprehensible reaction. “All the legends about us as werewolves and their mates are true. Ever since that night I saved you from death, I’ve claimed you. You were mine from before you even knew you were mine” I wish I hadn’t heard that. “You didn’t just say that! It sounded like that’s what you planned all along. Why didn’t you let them kill me, Dominic? Why did you have to save me? And don’t tell me because you love me, because let me tell you, I can hardly believe you now.” My heart ached hearing him confess this, and I didn’t know what was real and what wasn’t in our relationship. I never thought Domi
Claws of Stone OPS, I AM NOT SORRY!
Dominic’s storyThe hours have passed with difficulty and just thinking about the way I marked Rebecca made my stomach turn. My reaction towards her was out of the ordinary. If only I could turn back time...“Come on, man, the party’s starting. We have to go. You’re the guest of honor. You can’t miss it,” Declan told me, poking his head through the door. “I’m hurrying as fast as I can. If you only knew how much I want this night to be over...” I said, running my hand through my hair, then looking at it, I felt my blood boil. The same hand that I marked Rebecca with.“Look, I know you may not be in the mood any longer, but somehow you have to pull yourself together. I guarantee it’ll pass quickly and you’ll be home soon. You’ll have plenty of time to sort things out with Rebecca. By the way, she’s also invited, I presume.” “Yes, she is, but I’m doubting she’ll even show up,” I replied with regret, gently kicking the mirror table. “Let’s go!” I urged as I rushed towards the exit. I d
Claws of Stone THIS IS NOT OVER YET
Dominic’s story“I marked her! I fucking marked her!” My nerves were about to snap. Even Declan and his jokes couldn’t keep me under wraps.I could see he understood and was a little shocked by the news, especially since he already knew this was what I wanted. But he probably didn’t understand the reason for my anger.“You marked her... okay? And isn’t that supposed to be a good thing? Something you were supposed to do?” he looked even more confused, rubbing his barely grown beard. The way he looked at things was the obvious way, but from my perspective, I fucked those things up. I narrowed my eyes and felt them catch fire. “Okay, I take it that not everything went smoothly...” Declan continued, but in a more cautious tone. “Everything went so wrong, Declan!” I snapped, slamming my fist into the table, watching the coffee cups shake. Already, a few curious eyes had turned to us.“Calm down or you’ll attract attention and you don’t want that. Take a deep breath and tell me all about
Claws of Stone STAY THE HELL OUT!
Rebecca’s storyI found his voice colder than ice. He could barely contain the urge to punch the man standing so near to me. His blood was boiling in his veins and his stare had turned so evil that I was trying to make eye contact with him to calm him down. At the same time, he might wonder what the hell I was doing with Logan in this part of the hotel, so isolated? I could almost hear these thoughts screaming in his mind. “What the hell are you doing here with her?” He asked, not even noticing that he had raised his voice at me.“I don’t think that’s any of your business, actor!” Logan shot back, and contrary to what I was expecting from doing, Dominic rushed forward with his fist straight into Logan’s jaw. “Dominic, stop!” I shouted, trying to stop him from hitting Logan a second time. Somehow, I placed my frail body between the two of them. And although I expected the fight to continue, Dominic hardly held back. Especially since I knew what a beast was inside him. “Let’s go! Let’
