My fist slam down on my desk in frustration as I watch my plan back fire. I was so sure that the little black girl would never protect Morbius as her mate. It seems that I miscalculated things on my end with this. It would appear that I was right in my assumption that the brother would want him dead. That one wasn’t far fetched however after everything that Morbius has done. As I watch the ungrateful bastard lean against the wall and close his eyes, I am forced to lean back in my chair. The fact that he is still bloodied and bruised due to my lackies and his brother pleases me. However, it is not enough. I needed him to make my plan work and now I have to find a way. I rub my eyes as I feel the stress of a headache coming on. You would think that after working on this plan for twenty years that I would have what I wanted by now. This is the last step but too many wrenches have been thrown into my plan.I thought that after all my manipulating and scheming the stupid big wigs of this
The little weird man that smells like death leaves the room in a flash after making eye contact with my brother. I turn my head to look at the three men holding me and it turns out that they are looking at each other. It appears that no one knows what to do, when they are all listening to him. What are they doing listening to a human anyway? I smirk as an idea comes to mind.“So I take it that he has something on all of you right?” I ask the question loudly to insure that everyone hears me. They keep on looking at eachother as if they don’t know what I mean. This makes me laugh aloud as i shake my head at them. “Well, its obvious right. Okay, fine. He has a way of ending your life in a split second no matter where in the world you are, right” I ask them again. Some of them start to shuffle around where they stand. “I am right aren’t i?” I ask incredulously. They really are just some dumb creatures. No wonder the little man has no respect for us. “Trust me brother. You are barking up
My mouth gapes open in disbelief as I listen to Dr. Snow on the other end of the phone. I can’t say that I was expecting these results. In fact I would have thought that we would have gotten the exact opposite. For months she has been running her test on our species. We needed to know as much as possible about ourselves if we were to win in the war against the humans that hold us captured. I’d ordered these test personally because of the list of names my mate had gotten off of my skin.“Wait, so you’re saying that there is no tie in our DNA?” I ask her again for clarification.“There are no ties at all alpha. Even though you were all informed that you were birthed from the same woman, your DNA suggest that different. Besides the gene that we have identified for your species its as if you are all perfect strangers. The only similarities I found were between the new babes and their parents” She states. “And what of your findings for the test from the other species? Did they show the sa
“Now that we have finally found a method to get project orgasm to work. We are going to start distribution immediately. We can go ahead and set it up as a free vaccine for Corona virus. So many are paranoid about it, and I believe that it will get the most response of humans receiving the serum. How long would production take?”“With all six labs here in America creating the serum, we would see the results in about two weeks. As the serum manifest inside of the human then the dragon would die, even if they have never met their mate. With it going international, then I would say they should be nearly to completely irradicated by the end of the month.” “You have done good Williams. This is what our research has been all about. After the trial run with the dragons, we will focus immediately on the other species. I expect to stay updated.”The roar that I let loose immediately echoed as the clan link opens up and I allow everyone to hear what this human has to say next. The look of dete
I am in a war with my own body as I try to get it to move. All my life I have had to fight to hold on to who I am and as long as there is breath in my body I will not let someone dictate my path for me. The burning sensation from whatever I was stuck with has all but disappeared but with it went everything else but my vision. However, the vision I have is just it. Its like the black concoction was able to stop even the smallest of muscle movements. Inside I panic as I am dragged across the floor. I stare openly at what I see until a shadow cast over my vision. I try even harder to get my body to respond but cant even make a finger twitch. Something bad is about to happen I just know it. I want to meet the gaze of Jefferson and let him know that I am going to be okay. However, it feels like I will never get that opportunity again.As my vision moves more, the face of Morbius comes into view. I try hard as I try to decipher his expression. I would say that he looks almost sad but that
As I sink my elongated teeth into the neck of my mate a roar of triumph comes from my dragon. Its as if a snap goes off in mind is flooded. The roar that echoes from my brother has me lifting my eyes to see the pain in his. I remove my teeth from her skin as I quickly lift her away from me. Anger unlike anything I have ever known fills me and I use it as I rush at the men around me. The doctor being the coward that he is quickly steps out the way just as I snap the neck of the first person I get in reach. This ends today.As they back away from me I sway on my feet as a pain hits me hard. I look at my hand for the source of the pain but see nothing as a harsh breath leaves my mouth. As Julia screams behind me from where I stepped over her, I can see her grabbing her own hand even though her eyes remain unopened. My chest hurts as I clutch it and fall to my knees as I stare at the men with hatred. “He will be out for a while from this. Continue as you were. When she dies throw her int
I watch as my brother tries to fight them. I wish that for the first time of seeing someone mark their mate that it hadn’t of been my mate who I saw marked. Knowing that she could die, I cant event take my eyes off of her as she lies so still. The constant pain from my dragon only makes mine increase tenfold. We were supposed to protect her. The love from the bond with us would have been formed correctly. She chose us. She wanted us. She screams as she grapples for her hand with her eyes closed. As I fight to get to her, they finally turn me a loose and I don’t waste a moment. Reaching down I scoop her into my arms as I try to stop her movements so that she cant hurt herself. I hear as people hit the ground but I cant be bothered to pay them attention as the cries of my mate break my heart. If she did deserve death then I would imagine that this would have been easier to watch. I would wish that she goes peacefully into the night instead of what torture awaits her in my brothers so
I open my eyes in confusion as I look around. To find myself seated is not what I expected when I died. I imagined going to a place as the humans described for their damned. I imagined being burned and an eternal torture for all that I have done. A laugh fills the air and my attention is automatically drawn to it as I watch a little girl run. She seems so familiar and happy that I stumble to my feet as I go to follow her.As I do a lightness fills my chest. It is so close to the feeling that I receive from the kelpies that I find myself laughing with her as she runs. When the little girl with the large hair meets my eyes my feet freeze just as the smile on my face does. “I was waiting for you to come and play with me. Thank you” She waves at me with her little hands and I find myself waving back as she comes closer. Her little arms reach out for me and I lift her up. The hug that she gives me is the warmest thing that I have ever felt. Tears of happiness and joy fill my eyes as she d
“Dammit Athena, that was the last one here” I hear Jefferson yell downstairs as I start to laugh. If I had to hazard a guess I would say that she once more shredded his robe as soon as he came into the room. The guys enjoyed leaving that fact out as the dragons of their females guarded the eggs. Not that I have minded too much.Since joining the guard under Maximus in the last few months I have always hated the uniform. For the last three days she has yet to let us leave the house. Athena’s way to ensure that we didn't leave was to strip off our clothes for her nest before we even tried. Knowing that he will come up here to complain I get more comfortable on the bed where Iaid out. His angry footsteps coming up the steps make me laugh even harder as he bursts into the room. “I told you that it was a bad idea. You will just have to cook what is here "I tell him as I don't remove my eyes from the book i was reading.“I just wanted to go and get some garlic. It's the only thing that sau
Our children come forward as Salvatore tells them that it is time. I know that this part won't be easy for any of us. Many here will not believe that he deserves such an honorable death. They would be right. But because he is our mate and we allowed hatred to rule him for so long, it is the least that we could do. We can grant him the gift of dying with love.“We will be here until the very end” I promise Slater as I look at him. His heart rate has picked up and I know that he is scared of what is to come. Blind in his hatred he wouldn't have feared death. However, feeling our bond and our love I would imagine it seems so different now.“It's painless dad. It will be just like going to sleep” Young Slay says as he kneels before him with his sister. I couldn't be more proud of my children at this moment. Knowing what they are capable of has always been hard.Marla looks up as someone comes closer and I watch as her dragon shines through. The child has always been too smart for her own
As the moon shines I can't seem to focus. So many emotions rush through as i look at my mates. My body feels so light that it seems at any moment i could take flight from the ground. Looking at my mates I can see the two children that stand beside them and yet the anger that the sight should cause isn't there.What I feel instead is indescribable. It is a connection that I know I have longed for forever. It's the connection to my mates that I witnessed so many others have. A connection that brings these tears that I cannot stop down my face. Looking around the rest of the yard in front of the cabin I can see all the others.The dragons that I have manipulated and deceived. The pain in my chest from what I have done is insurmountable. My eyes close as the images play in my head and I want to vomit. My hands claw at my chest wanting to rip my heart out for all the atrocities that I have committed. I don't deserve to be here. I don't deserve to take one more breath on this earth for all
As our children rush to me and embrace me, the world seems a bit less sad. I feel so tired from the day that i am drained but i can always smile for them. I know in a few moments they will have lots of questions that we will need to answer. At this time they are old enough to receive the answers. I know that bringing them here to meet theri father on his death may haunt them but it is the last thing that i can do for my mate. They hug there mother also and i watch Avery with them. Seeing her with them has always brought a smile to our face. Once they are done embracing, it is then that they notice the others who surround us and the man on the floor. They back toward Avery for comfort and i feel bad for springing this on them in the moment. However, their special talents will be needed in the moment.“Dad?” My son ask as he questions me. I hold my hand out and he comes over to me and pulls his twin sister along. I kneel in front of them as they look at the people that surround us. “Y
No one in the room can hide their shock as a man appears from Slater. The woman embraces the boy as he stands still and looks at everyone in the room. Tears grace Kawa’s face as she holds the young man to her. He steps away from her as he looks at her in confusion. “What am I doing here, mother?” he asks her as he looks at all of us. “I am here to free you my erzi. Now we can go to the land of the beyond so I can reunite you with your love. Let’s call it a wrong made right so to speak” she states. “My Io?” he asks as he smiles. The smile on his face disappears as he seems to remember something. His hand flies to the back of his head and he looks at his hand in confusion. Kawa’s expression turns sad as she watches emotions play across his face. “She will never forgive me,” he whispers. “That only you may find out. You will have to go to her first. However, there is one person that i would like you to see first” She says as she gestures toward the door. He looks up at the door confu
The commotion from the cabin can be heard before we approach it. Feet pound against the forest floor as everyone rushes forward. A feminine scream lets off into the air as growls and fighting can be heard. A sigh of relief fills my chest as I hear the distinctive growl of my brother. To know that he is alive is what I need as I listen to the words of my dragon. He is still lost to us in the grief of the mate that he believes we have lost. We can not let him succumb to it, or he will be lost to us forever.The words make me move even faster as I burst through the door of the cabin. I spot him as he faces off with Salvatore as the dragon man stands in front of Slater. It looks as if my brother has already had a few rounds with him and as if someone has also had a few rounds with my brother. I rush forward just as he goes to attack Salvatore once more. I fly through the air as I tackle him but it barely diminishes his momentum. He hits Salvatore square in the chest.Salvatore goes flyin
Looking at the faces in the room I can feel the words in my throat as they choke me. All these years and i know that the way that i handled things in the past was wrong. I made the decision based on our unborn children. I should have told Salvatore the truth of that night and yet I was afraid. I was afraid of how he would look at me and that I might have been left to raise our baby alone. I was afraid that he would see the dark side of me that Slater knew before I learned to control it. Who knows that Salvatore would have helped me control it later down the line. “Speak!!” Slater yells at me. Salvatores gaze swivels between us both as he tries to access my mind link. I block him from it not wanting him to see the actions. They are words that I need to say anyway. “That night was not how things were supposed to go, Sal. You have to believe me. I never wanted anyone to get hurt "I tell him as I plead with him. As I step toward him he steps away from me as he looks at me. I know from t
The fire in the fireplace roars to life as I stroke it. The flames are mesmerizing to me as I feel my mates closing in. I have waited for this moment. After everything that i have done now they have no choice but to pay attention. The best has still yet to be shown and they don't even know. They will be leaving this earth on this day just as I will be. An epically romantic moment until the bitter end.I laugh as their flames heat. By now many of their friends would have died. The other dragons would have changed into today's clothes not knowing that it would be their death. For those that didn't change into the close they would have their final meal. Everything was so eloquently executed and they were blind sided. This was the only way that things could go after they blindsided me all those years ago.I got rid of a problem. I saved us only for them to leave me. For years I waited for them to return. For years I felt them as they loved and they grew. After five years had passed I rea
Until this day I have no regrets about the decisions that I have made. Seeing the horrific things from the man that I loved hurt me beyond belief. When I heard of the things that he was doing to our kind I believed them. I had once upon a time seen his rage and I had Avery run from it. All those years ago and we have been running ever since. For decades I have felt the connection to Slater. In my anger and my fury at him I have all but denied that it existed. Today however, I have no choice. I have to follow it to where he is so that I can put a stop to him once and for all. I should have put a stop to it all those years ago, but because he holds my soul, I could not. Avery has always been the strongest of us. When she found out what he did, she so easily rejected him. I don't know if i could have done the same in her position but i know that it wasn't only herself that she was thinking of.When we returned after our trip in the forest and he shared our relationship, I was finally ha
