Maddox spent his entre life being torn down into nothing. His pain isn't just physical, which is why he needs someone strong to help him learn how to truly heal.
MADDOX“A very brief history lesson is necessary. Generations ago, there was a pack that was attacked and massacred. The enemy lined everyone up and slaughtered them. There was a young pup named Sorenthica Quolia who was in that line, but the Goddess shielded her from the enemy. They left believing that nobody survived. It was because of this girl’s strength and pure soul that the Goddess chose to bless her with immense power in order to protect others from the fate that her pack suffered. Each female of her bloodline would become a warrior and hold a portion of that power, but certain ones would be given the full power. We, the females of her line, are called Vessels.”Holy shit. I honestly did not think that Vessels were real. My father had spoken about them in passing. He was someone who always sought power no matter what the cost was.“It’s a damn good thing he didn’t know what you were. He’s mentioned finding one, but I honestly thought they were just a fairytale for the power-hun
KALENI felt like our talk provided some healing on both of our parts. It helped to put all of our cards on the table and be on the same page.Just like I had expected, he felt horrible when he found out that I could feel him with others. Him breaking down because of him sleeping with the dead bitch was unexpected, but it proved to me that he fully understood and accepted fault for what happened. It might seem to early to say it definitively, but I knew that he would never willingly do it again. It was a gut instinct, and those had never let me down before.I was also relieved that he wanted to share the suite with me. Despite everything that happened, I felt safe around him. I needed that, especially right now when I was still trying to come to terms with everything that happened during my vacation with the mysterious Calvin Fucking Stark.I had Mom set up an impromptu meeting regarding everything that I discovered. It was time to pull in the big guns because this affects everyone and
KALEN“I started having visions over the summer. They weren’t concrete or anything except that there was a supernatural who would end up going on a whiny bitch rampage. Everything started becoming clear once school started back.”I had Nika share with Neo that it was Maddox’s kiss at the party that started solidifying my visions. I saw Maddox’s lips twitch. Damn those lips were so kissable.‘Focus,’ Nika said, snickering.“The visions showed me who was working with the supernatural and knew that I had to set the perfect plan up so that the idiot thought he captured me instead of me being the one to place myself there. The idiot has a vendetta against the Council because the former Alpha Cameron of the Forest Trails pack was his brother.”I paused because that name alone brought growls from those who knew who he was. I looked and saw Uncle Dante nuzzling his mate’s neck since it was her who faced his torture. Having been on the receiving end of Calvin’s torture, I had a feeling that the
MADDOXThis day was shaping up to be completely different than I had expected. Honestly, my mind was about ready to completely explode right now.I knew that Beauty had told me that she would stand up for me, but I had not anticipated her doing so towards her father. She stood there, unafraid, and unwilling to back down. I thought that hearing about the bond was a shock to him. Not only because she had yet to reach eighteen.Then something unforeseen and completely shocking happened. He accepted me. Even more shocking was that her mother gave me a hug. Goddess, it had been such a long time since anyone actually embraced me for completely platonic reasons. It felt weird because it was new, but it felt like I had come home if that made any sense. It did not make sense to me, but I just rolled with it.Everyone decided to shut it down for the day so that some of them could do research on the Demacores. Whatever the fuck those were. I could not believe that my fa– Calvin got involved in th
MADDOX‘Wakeup! Our mates need us,’ Neo barked out as he paced from side to side.That got my attention. I jumped out of the bed and made my way out of my room and over to hers.I could hear pained whimpers coming from the other side of the door. I knocked and waited. I tried knocking again, but there was nothing. Would she get pissed off if I just opened her door? I did not want to violate her privacy, but I also did not want her suffering all alone.‘Nika said to go on in but to approach the bed slowly,’ Neo relayed to me what he was told.Deep breaths in and out. I hated to invade her privacy like this. Hopefully, she would give me a heads-up if she was going to rip my dick off.I turned her doorknob and slowly pushed it open so that I would not startle her. Her whimpers tore at me. I looked in and saw her knees pulled up to her chest with arms around them, holding on tightly.“My name is Kalen Zyla Anderson. I’m Dark Moon’s Alpha heir and will be the first female Alpha of our pack.
KALENI woke up this morning surrounded in warmth and tingles. The feeling was amazing and something I could definitely get used to. I totally understood why mates were so touchy feely. The sparks were incredible.It took me a minute to remember what happened last night. I woke up with my heart pounding in my chest and memories all mixed up in my head. The line between reality and fantasy was blurred.Then Maddox came in and helped me to calm down. He helped me to realize what was real. The way that he helped me during one of my weakest moments made me realize that I wanted us to have a fresh start. He was not even upset when I told him that intimacy might take a while. He understood my reasoning. He just accepted it.He promised to never break my trust again and promised to fight for me. I almost started to cry when I heard those words because it was something that I longed for since I learned about what would happen after the bond snapped into place.I slept soundly, wrapped up in hi
MADDOXI wanted nothing more than to strangle the bitch for what she said about my mate, but I knew that it was not the best course of action. Anger might have been the way that I dealt with things in the past, but it could not be like that any longer. I had to be better than I used to be.I could sense how happy she was that I claimed her in front of everyone like I did, and that meant everything to me.Zion surprised me when he gestured for me to take his seat in History class. My girl had told me that Zion had known that they were mates after she opened up to him. He was also the one who knew that she would have to leave for a Vessel mission and was the one who cast her to Atlanta where Calvin was. The disappearing bullshit was apparently called casting. It was not only instant teleportation but also provided an invisible cloak around the person or group that was being transported until the caster dropped the cloak.It was really fucking cool that he inherited that from his father w
KALENI still could not wrap my head around what Bianca did. She set me up to where I had to strip off my clothes and streamed it. There had been a full-length mirror in front of me, showing my front as well.I had no idea what would have happened if Maddox had not come in when he did. He saved me once again. Then he brought Bianca, and had Zion bring two idiots who had been watching it on their phone, to the headmaster’s office. My mate demanded that something be done or else he would not stop until all hell broke loose and the new headmaster lost his job.In the end, we went home, and he held me while I broke down. I had never felt so violated in my life. He just held me while I got everything out.We must have fallen asleep at some point. The next thing that I knew, my eyes opened up to see Selene’s realm.Next to me stood my mate. I could feel his absolute awe as he looked around us. It was understandable because I was still in awe even though I had been here before.“Where are we
