Claws of Stone MILLION PIECES
Rebecca’s storyIt was the first time I had heard such a word. It sounded more like... a woman’s name. Still, I was curious. And I felt so helpless I couldn’t see them. “Well? What is a Luna?” I insisted, sensing the tension that had risen between the two of them. I could almost see them looking at each other, wondering who should speak first. Eventually, it was Dominic’s friend Megan who did it.“My dear, first of all, it is a pleasure to meet you and I am sorry to do so under such circumstances. I would have liked to have met you over coffee. But, to answer your question, Luna...is a kind of nickname...that Dominic here...uses with...his friends. Women, especially. He would not use that kind of name for a man, was he?” Megan’s explanation was a bit forced, but I would not push it either. If I was honest with myself, I didn’t really care about that right now. All I wanted to do was recover and get on with my life. I had a lot of contracts on standby and I either had to honor them or
Claws of Stone MY TRUTH
Dominic’s storyI couldn’t wait to get out of my own house. Rebecca’s presence was driving me crazy, especially since the wolf in me hadn’t found peace since I rescued her. Not being a pureblood, I was skeptical even about that. I thought I could control my senses and not give in to desire. I couldn’t have been more wrong. Although I had used my career as an excuse, I still called my agent and right now we were meeting at my favorite restaurant. I didn’t have any shooting, but I really needed to see Nick. He was a man of many ideas. Maybe this time he had one as brilliant as ever. “You called Megan? The Megan I also know? To help you do what, Dominic?” he asked in a deep voice, almost standing up with the whole table.The second we sat down at the table, Nick started questioning me. I’ve known Nick for over ten years. He was my best friend, almost like a brother. He also knew my other personality. Only I knew the reason I called Megan to help me, and maybe Megan herself knew it.“I
Claws of Stone LEARN TO WALK AGAIN
Rebecca’s storyThis house was so big for me, and without Dominic in it, it was even bigger. His friend Megan would occasionally come over to help me, just as he promised, but I got the feeling Dominic was actually avoiding me. This week he’s been home with me for barely three hours during the day, every day. He would always say he would have filming and an audition coming. At night, I would hear him coming in so late that I would lock myself up in my room so as not to disturb him. His room was right next to mine. Sometimes, if it was really quiet, I could hear his breathing through the walls.I was understanding why he brought Megan into the house. And not so I wouldn’t feel lonely. I was sensing certain behaviors in Dominic. But I didn’t want to jump to conclusions. I didn’t quite know what was happening to me when he was nearby. There were some moments when he would stand so close that I would feel overwhelmed by his masculinity. I had to admit that even without seeing him, I was
Claws of Stone ALMOST A NEW BEGINNING
Dominic’s storyI had just walked into my room when a million thoughts made their way into my mind. How would I help her walk again or see again? So she could join me at the gala. I intended to hire the best physiotherapist in all of New York. And that could only be Declan, who I knew had such courses under his belt. And also arranged for a specialist to perform surgery and restore her sight. It was a bold and difficult plan, but not impossible. And I would be with her all the way.Just as I was getting ready for sleep...“No, Tom! No! Leave him alone, you beasts!” I immediately jumped out of bed and went into her room. She was having a nightmare, one of her many. She was calling her fiance. I reached over and grabbed her shoulders with both hands and shook her a little, then harder... She didn’t wake up. Every second she sank deeper into her dream and she was more anxious. I could feel the terror she was feeling right now. Beads of sweat caressed her angelic face. Seeing her like th
Claws of Stone BABY STEPS
Rebecca’s storyAlthough I couldn’t see and couldn’t move, the way I felt remained the same. And Dominic’s news really shocked me. “Rebecca, I know I took you by surprise. I didn’t want you to find out this way, but I really want to take you with me to the Treasure Awards. So I need you cured in two weeks,” Dominic explained, but my mind remained on the Treasure Awards. This man, if he was indeed taking me there, was actually the actor Dominic Stone. If it hadn’t been him, how could he tell me he was taking me there? “So, I got in touch with the best physical therapist in New York, Catherine Rogers. She is actually my agent’s fiancee.” “Doctor Catherine Rogers?” Who didn’t know Catherine? He was the best, and everyone, without exception, went to him. Another reason to believe Dominic was who he claimed to be. She wasn’t a cheap doctor.The day in Dominic’s company flew by. I was supposed to meet Catherine the next morning at 8 o’clock. And as the time approached, I grew increasingly
Claws of Stone THERE, I SAID IT
Rebecca’s storyI knew it would be hard, but at the same time, I knew I wasn’t alone. “Miss Holland, in front of you is an exercise table I use on patients who have mobility difficulties. So I’m going to put you on that table too,” the doctor explained, and I could already hear my heart pounding to break my chest. I didn’t know if it would be painful, or how long the recovery would take. All I knew was that in the next few seconds, we’d get started. “We need to start with some light warm-up exercises. Dominic, will you help me, please? To get her on the table?” Dominic picked me up so lightly. On impulse, I wrapped my arms around his neck, leaning my head up against his chest. I didn’t need to do that. I just sensed I had to. He was like a magnet that was inevitably luring me in. My body was putting up no resistance. It seemed so perfectly normal, this nearness between us.I often tried to explain to myself why I was so attracted to him. And it wasn’t just that he saved me, it was s
Claws of Stone WOULD WE BE THE SAME?
Dominic’s storyThe wolf was howling so loudly inside me I barely kept it from surfacing. Rebecca had just experienced a painful and exhausting time with doctor Catherine. But I couldn’t control my eyes. My body was throbbing with desire as I felt a bright, hot, red heat in them. I’d almost let him loose. I forced him to behave normally around her. I could have sworn she wasn’t so indifferent anymore either, even though she still didn’t believe who I was. I had so many identities that I feared the time when I would have to reveal them. But if I wanted her with me for eternity, she’d have to accept me as I was. I knew I had to somehow prove to her that my love was heartfelt. She had a difficult medical condition at the moment and I didn’t want her to think I was sorry for her and that was the only reason I was sticking around. That was the last thing I would want and do. I had so many questions that I desperately wanted an answer to. What was the name of that feeling when you felt l
Claws of Stone I CAN SEE YOU
Rebecca’s storyI didn’t expect it to be so hard. Things that before the attack I used to do with ease now seemed painful and exhausting. I only got tired from a few exercises. With all the training I had done in my life, it was impossible now to believe that this was all I could do. But I would not quit. I was going to fight back and go all the way. Damn, this was really tough! I was struggling to hold myself together and not slip or fall in the shower. The last thing I wanted was to worry Dominic. He had so much on his mind; I had to show up, too. So I had to be ten times more careful about what I was doing. I carefully washed, rinsed and dried my body and hair a bit, then covered myself in the cotton towel Dominic gave me. It was so tender, like the touch of a man...like his touch...It’s just that I can’t help wandering off my thoughts into the deepest parts of my brain. And those thoughts were so full of guilt that a bitter-sweet ache rippled from my belly to my femininity. I cl

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’
