I had to be careful with my questions, trying my best to make sure I didn't say anything that would raise suspicions. In all, Blake didn't believe that werewolves abilities could be replicated.

Drowning in Her Darkness Valen
Walking to the practice fields was awkward. I guess I was still a bit of a spectacle. The human in the werewolf world, mated to their fearless leader. I could see it in their eyes as I walked past, they didn’t think I was worthy of being here, much less of a higher rank. Keeping my head held high, I refused to show any weakness. As we neared a sign that signaled training field C, I looked among the warriors currently sparing, hoping for a glimpse of Eva. I saw her bright blonde hair flash in the sunlight before disappearing behind another body and made a line straight for her. Getting closer I realized the reason I hadn’t really seen her for more then a flash was because she was sparing. But her opponent was more than double her size. My heart stopped for a moment when he swung a large fist at her head, all I saw was a concussion and the considerable damage that would come from the man’s hammer of a fist ramming into her sku
Drowning in Her Darkness "Hello?"
“Hello”What was that? I looked around but as always, I saw nothing. Just the darkness. Always the darkness.I know that the room I am in is round, I know it is tall, and I know that the walls are smooth and hard and always cold to the touch. I also know that the floor is made of dirt. I know these few things because not only do my hands tell me, but so do my eyes the times that the hatch above my head has been opened. It’s not very often and it’s always for the same reasons, I get food, fresh water, and occasionally a new piece of cloth to use to cover myself. I have never seen what gives me food and water, I’m always blinded by the light the moment the door is opened.“Hello?”There it is again! I put my food down on the cloth it had been lowered in and stand, moving towards the wall. Ten paces and my hand touches smooth cold stone.
Drowning in Her Darkness The Escape
When I woke the next morning and opened my eyes, I realized something had changed. I could see in the darkness. Everything looked a little lighter even though no light was present.“Do you like it?”I jumped, looking around for the sound. It took a few seconds for my sleep addled mind to awaken enough to realize I recognized that voice.“Sapphire!” I thought happily. “You are real! I thought I had heard you in my sleep.”“Your dreams Evangeline.” Sapphire said softly, as if she was smiling.“I forgot you had given me a name as well.” Now I felt a warm feeling in my chest, near my heart. It was happiness. “I like my name Sapphire, thank you.”“You’re welcome!” She said happily. &ldq
Drowning in Her Darkness First Apperance
Sapphire ran for hours, as the sun faded away and finally set and the moon began its accent before we came to a deep enough part of the forest that she felt we could stop for a bit and rest. Well, she could rest. I was not tired, I wanted to see everything, I wanted to touch everything. I could feel everything through Sapphires paws, but it felt clouded, as if there were layers of cloth in the way, I wanted to feel everything myself.“I’m going to shift now Evangeline, and I’m going to rest. I need my strength before we continue. If you need me call me.” Sapphire’s voice sounded so tired. As she receded to the back of our mind to sleep, I took over the reins and shifted us to my human form.As my paws became arms and legs, I lifted my hands off the ground in surprise. It felt odd, the ground felt fuzzy, and it tickled my skin where it touched. “Grass, the fuzzy green stuff is grass Evangeline
Drowning in Her Darkness Are We Safe?
The icy water of the river dragged me down stream as I fought to keep my face above the water, gulping air into my lungs every chance I got. When I managed to break the surface facing the direction I had jumped from, I could see wolfs running along the riverbank trying to keep pace with me as I was tumbling through the water.“Don’t fight the water, Evangeline! You will just wear yourself out faster. Lay back and let the water pull you down stream, once you get a few good breaths in, turn our head towards the opposite riverbank and kick your legs. Between the river pulling you down stream and the motion from your legs aiming us, we’ll get there.” Sapphire was exhausted and barely staying with me at this point.It felt like it took forever but soon I was close to the opposite riverbank, so far down stream that the bank I jumped in from was out of sight. I could see the wolfs though, all five pacing back and fo

“Up Eva!”“Damn it, Galden! I just started training with swords a week ago, can’t you take it a little easier on me!” I gasped and rolled to the side; his sword blade was now buried in the ground beside my head. “Holy shit Galden! The goal is to train me not decapitate me!” I rolled over onto my back and slid my legs up closer to my butt, pushing off them I threw myself up and into a crouching position facing my trainer, who was grinning like the freaking idiot he was.“Tsk tsk Evangeline, such language, I know the Luna didn’t teach you that!” He moved to lunge at me again, stepping forward quickly and swinging the sword towards my left side.I slid back, bringing my blade up to parry his blow and thrusting forward sending him on the defense. “Oh those words I learned from you Gal!” I used the nickname he hated most and twisted my wrist, bringing my
Drowning in Her Darkness Six Months Later: The Battle
“They’re coming from the south!” A warrior shouted from the edge of the southern forest’s boarder, drawing the eyes of the ranked wolfs surrounding the battle strategy table we were standing around. Alpha Henry looked up and I saw uncertainty briefly cross his face. “All of the pups, elderly and non-warriors are in the bunkered!” Shouted Lila as she and her mother, Luna Davene, came running from the pack house, both carrying their weapons of choice. Lila carried multiple throwing knives attached all over her body by harnesses strapped to her, each one coated in silver and dipped in wolfsbane so even the smallest cut could be deadly if left untreated. She had told me once she even had knives in her boots that would flick out with the right pressure in the right spot, and a couple wolfsbane coated pins in her hair, just in case. Luna Davene carried a bow with a quiver of arrows wrapped around her, the arrows were mad
Drowning in Her Darkness Six Months Later: The Battle Part 2
Sapphire flew through the forest, dodging trees and logs expertly, never losing speed. When we caught up with the fighting it looked exactly like what it was, a war zone. Dead men and women were everywhere, naked except for the blood that covered their bodies and the grass and leaves that stuck to their hair and wounds. So many eyes staring but seeing nothing. My chest grew tight as I looked out over the dead, so many lives lost, and for what? Land? Money? Power?I fought down bile as I began searching the bodies, looking for the Alpha, or anyone who could be saved. Praying for anything to give hope.I heard him before I saw him, a wolf creeping up on my right side from behind, I dipped my head to the ground, as if checking another body, wanting him closer before I turned to face him. Just as he was gearing up to sneak attack me, I flipped around and jumped him, rolling across the ground as we snapped for each other’s throats, snarling

Drowning in Her Darkness The Problems Are Stacking Up
Slamming the door to my office I talked to my desk and grasped the edge trying to calm my anger, which was proving hard. "I had to do it." Sapphireargued through my mind, again. She had been apologizing since we'd been thrown from the room by our very angry mate. Our rightfully pissed the F-off mate. "Don't!" I yelled, digging my fingers into the desk until the wood gave way and crumbled in my hands. "Outof my head, now." I growled at my wolf, for the first time since Sapphire found me in that darkness, I wanted her gone. "Fine, but I did this for us, Eva. For us all. You, me, Valen, the pack. Our species."She whispered, disappearing from my consciousness immediately after. My wolf had destroyed the barest bit of trust I had managed to build with Valen. Set us back to the beginning, and I was not ready to forgive her at the moment. Tears of frustration pricked at the corners
Drowning in Her Darkness Valen
Pain sliced through the pleasure pulsating through my body, though oddly the sensation melded into one, a pleasure sogreatit became painful. As I came down from my orgasm, I realized my shoulder painfully pulsating. When I pulled back something about Eva was different. Her eyes, they were glowing.I pushed away from her, shifting to my knees when I saw the small trickle of blood on her lip, sliding slowly down her chin. The set of her face was different as well, her brows drawn together, her lips pressed together, as if she were expecting an outburst and ready to take the heat without complaint. As if she knew she had done something wrong.The pain pulled my attention and raising a hand to shoulder I felt hot, sticky wetness pulling my fingers back I was surprised at the splash of color across them. I was bleeding, and if the blood
Drowning in Her Darkness Betrayal
His hand slid between my thighs, finding my sensitive clit, and gently pinching it between his deft fingers before rubbing small, lazy circles around the bud. My body arched into his, soaking in the heat of his embrace.His lips brushed along my neck, trailing down, over my collar bone and along the slope of my breast. Valen made his way down my body, fanning the flames of my desire with every kiss and caress, until his lips were kissing the sensitive skin of my belly just above where his fingers worked to drive me higher.When his lips replaced his fingers, I nearly came off the bed, sparks of sensation feeling as if he’d taken an electrical current to my most sensitive parts. I wasn’t sure how long I laid there, my fingers dug into his hair, my hips bucking into his face as he lapped up every drop of honey my body produced.When my orgasm built, he refused to listen to my urgings for him to join me, instead
Drowning in Her Darkness To Burn
“Yes, I could use a little help I think.” Honestly, I was shocked the words came out so sure, I half expected to have to force my lips to move and form them.“I’m here with a little extra courage.” Sapphire piped in, almost causing me to chuckle.“Horny wolf.”“Always, especially for… all of that.” I knew by the way she purred she was referring to our very delicious looking mate.Valen stopped at the edge of the tub and grabbed a wash towel, before climbing in. The water rose, threatening to spill over the edge. A part of me wanted to raise my hands to cover my breasts, but between the bubbles and my hair I felt I was covered well enough. And really… did I want to be covered from his view? Isn’t naked with him exactly what I wanted?“Dunk your head under the water, I’ll he

Drowning in Her Darkness Fanning the Flames
When we were done questioning Genesis warrior, Alaric and I checked in on the big bad wolf himself, only to find him still knocked out from the silver and wolfsbane that was used to keep him sedated for the trip here. This worked for me though, I wanted to check on Valen. As I neared the door to my private rooms, I confronted the warriors standing guard at the door. “Did he give you any trouble?” I asked. The exchanged an odd look before shaking their head no in unison. “Not at all.” The one of the left said, followed closely by the one on the right. “He came with us to the safe room easily.” I felt that they were hiding something, but I wasn’t exceedingly worried about it at the moment and waved them away, telling them to get something to eat. My eyes scanned the room in panic when I found it empty, as I moved to call after he guards to come back and find him, I heard
Drowning in Her Darkness The Prisoner
When we reached the pack house Alaric, and I followed the guards carrying Genesis to the dungeons. We’d decided we would check in with Genesis’s scout while waiting for the big bad wolf himself to wake up. Walking into the dungeons was almost like walking into another world. It was dark and the smell of mildew assaulted your senses the moment you opened the door. As I stepped into the blackness at the entry to the bellow ground hell hole, I felt my heart skip a beat and my breathing pick up. Everything about it reminded me of that hole. Of my own personal prison for the vast majority of my life. Alaric was holding the door open and glanced back at me in confusion when I didn’t automatically step through. Leaning closer he lowered his voice, watching me curiously. “Alpha, is everything okay?” After taking a deep breath to help steady my racing heart I nodded and stepped into the dark. Alaric moved to turn on the swi
