Claws of Stone REBORN
Dominic’s storyDamn all this. How was I going to tell her that the man she was asking for was actually her fiance? The man she was going to marry one day? And why the hell was I feeling jealous of a dead man?I didn’t prepare an explanation concerning Tom. What was certain was that in Rebecca’s mind, this Tom didn’t have a face. Only what she remembered from her dreams, if she remembered anything at all. And I couldn’t even go into the motives. She was very vulnerable now, anyway. So I’ll take the shortest possible way. “We’ll have time to talk about Tom, who you only see in dreams, anyway. There’s been enough excitement for one day, Rebecca. You’d better rest now.” For the first time in a long time, she gazed directly into my eyes. I knew she could see me so well. But there was still a void in her eyes. I helped her gently onto the bed, supporting her carefully. She looked so fragile, especially now, when something she so long longed for had happened in her life. “Maybe you’re ri
Claws of Stone WHO GAVE YOU THE RIGHT?
Megan’s story“I just can’t stand her! That bi*ch” I shouted, pacing angrily under Zack Barnett’s questioning eyes, perhaps the only one who had an insane hatred towards what was left of William Stone’s family so much... Dominic. “Don’t be sad, baby, it won’t be long now and Dominic will pay. And if that means the one he cares for pays for his mistakes, then so be it. Besides, Rebecca Holland and I have another feud to take care of.” As soon as he said that, even though I didn’t feel any better or more protected, I approached him. He was the same attractive man I was still begging him to turn me. To be with him for eternity. But he was always making excuses for me. One lame excuse after another. His wild animal eyes looked at me every time with a mad thirst. I could never resist him and even though I felt and knew I was just another amusement for him, I fell prey to him every time. With a flick of his arm, he cleared the desk and just as easily mounted me on it, legs spread in fron
Claws of Stone I AM NOBODY'S POSSESSION
Rebecca’s story I hardly thought Dominic and Declan were talking about Tom like I knew him. Now I had to confront Dominic because I didn’t hear that part. They both looked at me as if they hardly believed I was the one standing in the doorway and heard them talking. I was no longer an invalid and no longer blind. I knew what I heard and saw. “Yes, Rebecca here! And you’re going to tell me right now what connection I have with Tom?” I could definitely say that I had surprised them, but I would not sit and watch. That’s what we had to discuss now.“Let’s go home and talk. Declan, please excuse us!” The doctor looked at us worriedly, first at me, then at Dominic. But the look on his face towards Dominic was so much different from the way he gazed at me. To be honest, I didn’t even realize it when we arrived home. Declan was really nervous, but maybe I was the one in a position to ask for an explanation. They were keeping me in the dark. So who had the right to be upset here? Was me
Claws of Stone THIS WAS NOT SUPPOSED TO HAPPEN
Rebecca’s storyThis morning I realized that yesterday I had been a bit too mean and pushy with him, so the first thing that came to mind saying I was sorry was a cake, a chocolate cake. I knew he had to like it, because everyone loved chocolate. Although my intention to leave after the Gala was as real as it possibly could be.I walked down the stairs into the kitchen, still shaking a little on my feet. It seemed Dominic had left. All the better. I was going to surprise him.I had made today a special one. With my sight restored and back on my feet, I had much to celebrate. Megan was out, too. I had the entire house to myself.It took me two hours to bake the cake, but I was happy with it. I just hoped Dominic would be the same. Everything had to be perfect. Just as I placed the pastry in the fridge, I heard the front door open. Damn, I didn’t have time to wash up for a bit! When he stepped into the open-space kitchen, he remained silent and still. It was the first time my eyes had e
Claws of Stone WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOUR EYES?
Dominic’s storyWhat I experienced the day before was probably the best feeling of my entire existence, but also the hardest to keep myself from going further. Although Rebecca invited me with her whole body, I had to restrain my urges and desire. The week was almost over and we had to get ready for the Treasure Awards Gala.All these days it seemed to me that Rebecca avoided me as much as she could, or maybe it was all in my imagination. But today the entire afternoon was ours. My footsteps led me to her room, and after two soft knocks, her voice from beyond the door invited me in. “Come on in” As she avoided me until now, I became aware of how much I missed the tone of her voice. As soon as I saw her, my heart started racing. She was beautiful!“Rebecca...do you think you can be ready in ten minutes?” I asked with a tremor in my voice. I wasn’t aware I had. “Definitely yes. Actually, I am almost ready,” she replied, and her voice penetrated deep into my soul. Only now did I realiz
Claws of Stone NOT AGAIN!
Rebecca’s storySomething was happening with my legs. I knew instantly that something was wrong. As soon as I woke up the day before the gala, where Dominic was dreaming of me walking in on his arm, I couldn’t feel my legs again. Then I realized that even my eyes hurt from the bright morning sunlight coming through the window. It was so intense I had to close my eyes. Maybe even try walking up to the window and closing the curtain.How hard could that be? Dominic was not here to help, but I believed I could handle it.I pulled the blanket aside and revealed my legs. They seemed numb now, but I needed them to move. I was still wondering how they listened to me yesterday as I prepared for Dominic’s surprise. Maybe I was pushing myself too hard and today was difficult to leave my bed. I was a little scared, but I helped myself with my hands and lowered my legs one by one, lifting myself up. Now came the hard part, the walking. I rested my hands on the edge of the mattress and pushed so
Claws of Stone THE GALA
Dominic’s storyIf I could stop time now, I would. How would you get out of this, Dominic? And as if divinity was on my side, even though I was an integral part of the darkness, given my appearance, my phone rang. Just the man I was thinking of.“Declan, what’s up man?” I greeted him, seemingly happier than ever. Rebecca’s eyes widened in amazement. She was waiting for my answer, an explanation that probably wouldn’t come now. She complied and took another long sip of coffee. “Dominic, I sense in your voice that you are perhaps too happy to hear me? Or is it just my imagination?” This man knew me so well. “Don’t tell me, you were about to explain something you didn’t want to...at least not now” “That’s right...you read me... Rebecca’s having some trouble. We’ll be right with you.” I may have stuttered horribly, but I was mostly right.“What kind of trouble?” The conversation was veering in the direction I wanted it to go and it seemed Rebecca would not insist. “Since the morning,
Claws of Stone SECRETS
Rebecca’s storyAs much as I wished I hadn’t heard that, there was nowhere to hide. And I didn’t expect Logan Elliot, my subordinate, to be here. Was there another undercover assignment I didn’t know about? And Dominic seemed to know him, too. It wasn’t like Logan was an actor. And the way he made his appearance made me even more confused. I almost couldn’t believe my ears. I expected the agency to investigate Tom’s death, but I didn’t expect Dominic to be so involved. How was that possible if he came to my rescue? He had time to tell me almost everything that was needed. Tom was an outlaw and now I found out something connected Dominic to him, too. Somehow, I had to continue the conversation with Logan at another time. I needed to know more. But a lie was a lie, and it was there. And the worst part was that Dominic admitted to me that Tom had died even though I didn’t remember, but he didn’t confess to knowing him somehow. “Is everything okay, Dominic?” Logan was testing his temper

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’
