Do you think that Kalen is doing the right thing with Maddox? Bianca got called out, but will it be enough to deter her or the others like her?
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
MADDOX My mother was not dead like I had lived most of my life thinking. On top of that, she was the Goddess of Truth. I was a Demigod. I could not even begin to wrap my head around that. How in the fuck did that happen? ‘I’m sure it’s the same concept of how we’ll create our own pups,’ Neo chimed in. My eyes narrowed at him. It was really fucking strange to see him outside of me. Thank you Captain Fuckhead. Now, we were on our way to Loki’s prison. Goddess, this entire trip had been so fucking strange. Brought up to Selene’s realm – check. Met my mother who just happened to be a Goddess – check. Learned that I was a Demigod – check. Now, I get to go command a douchey God for the truth – double fucking check. Beauty and I were told to hold onto each other, so I coiled my arm around her waist. We were in a blooming meadow one moment and in front of a large building the next. It appeared that our wolves were back inside us because they did not come with us. The two Goddesses start
KALENI reached out to Angel once we woke up from our trip to the Godly Realm. I still could not fully comprehend everything.Maddox was the key to wiping out the Demacores. It literally would not be possible to end this war without him. I really prayed that meeting his mother and all of that would help him heal some from the trauma of his past. That was the thing about trauma though – it could embed itself so deeply into who you were that it created a version of yourself, which was marred by it.Before we left out, I went into the bathroom and looked at my back in the mirror. There was not a single mark on it. With tears in my eyes, I called Maddox to come see. His jaw dropped some in amazement. He had seen the scars because of the bullshit with Bianca. He had also felt so damn guilty for what Calvin had done.His fingers reached out and trailed along the silky-smooth skin. A shiver went down my spine and straight to my core. His touch was featherlight. Sparks rushed through me. It fe
MADDOX I woke up with my nose buried in her neck. Her scent was to die for, and I could not get enough of it. It seemed that last night was a turning point for us. Not only did she want to sleep in here, but she also kissed me. What an amazing kiss it was too. It was so much better than either kiss before. The mate-bond snapping into place really enhanced every single aspect of our connection. Each touch, taste, and scent were a hundred times more potent than before. The fact that she was here in my arms meant everything to me. She did not give up on me even when I wanted to give up on myself. She was the light that was shining brightly in the darkness, pulling me away from the chaos inside of me. I was thirteen when I was given my first dose of Nordan. It had been five long years since then. I had grown accustomed to the darkness that it created, not realizing the impact of it until I was cleansed of it. I had never felt so light in my entire fucking life as I did then. “Hmm. I c
KALENThere were three new faces in the meeting. Nightshade will have three new Lamias when the twins and Angel take over.Axel was a strong warrior with great insight. Darius was Sera’s older brother who was a Trelinin Protector Fae/sphinx hybrid. He was extremely powerful. Ryker was the toughest human you would ever meet. He was a great warrior himself who shocked everyone with his ability and dedication.It made me realize that we would need to do the same thing for our Lamias whenever we eventually took over our own leadership. Dad had said he wanted to hand it over by the time that I turned twenty-one, so we had time. I was not in any rush to be passed the torch because I was still working through a lot of shit right now.When I was handed the floor, I painted the picture so that they could imagine being right there with us in the realm. Everyone paid close attention to each word I spoke. The Demigod bomb was dropped and amazed people. The best reaction was from Dad. He looked sta
MADDOX I was putting on the finishing touches to an abstract phoenix design that I had been working on. Beauty was still getting ready for the first family dinner that we would be attending together. I was nervous as fuck even if I would neve admit it. Family seemed to be extremely important to her, so I would do everything in my power to make sure tonight went well. “That’s an amazing drawing.” I had been so focused that I had not even noticed her coming out of the room. I looked over her outfit and internally groaned at the way that the dress hugged each delicious curve of her body. Auburn hair was braided and hung over her shoulder, showing off the silky expanse of her slender neck. My canines ached to leave my mark there, but I would never do it without her permission. “You look gorgeous,” I told her, standing up, and kissing her cheek. A beautiful blush highlighted her features. It was amazing how a fierce warrior blushed so deeply. Super fucking adorable. “Thanks. You’re l
KALEN Fate truly had an interesting way of bringing the right people together. During dinner last night, I explained to everyone that Angel had called for a large meeting this morning and explained what they had found out about the pack that belonged to the dude who kidnapped her. It sucked that Alpha had been her biological father, but now that pack was coming after her and Nightshade because Maxine, the backstabbing bitch, told them everything. Two weeks was about what Dahlia was estimating, given the information that she had been able to collect based on the correspondence between pack members. Luckily, she had been able to hack into it all with the electronics that had been gathered when the group saved Angel. Jaxon asked if he could come with us. I figured that it would be, but I asked Angel first. She said the more the merrier. When she said ‘meeting’ it had apparently meant a huge ass welcome breakfast for those who had come in from other packs. The thing that I had not an
