When we both awaken after Bree’s dream I look over to her and notice that we are both covered in a light sheen of sweat. I watch Bree for a moment and notice that she hasn’t made eye contact with me let alone even moved or blinked. I know she is processing everything that we just learnt, it’s times like this I really don’t know what to do. I don’t know how to comfort someone unless it involves sex and even then it isn’t really comforting, but with Bree, she is my mate and I don’t want to use her like that. I move to a sitting position and turn my body to face hers but as I do I watch her cave in on herself and roll to her side. I know she is silently crying I can smell the saltiness of her tears and that pulls at something in my chest, I honestly just want to wrap my arms around her and give her the affection she needs right now but then there is this part of me that fears rejection. I am still learning what she likes and dislikes and I don’t want her to become more upset so I get up
I race inside while I’m carrying Bree, I am in a slight panic at the fact she is bleeding everywhere and also the power she just unleashed. I don’t even know what kind of sup she is but having the ability to wield that much power and also to siphon it. My mind is a whirlwind and the scent of her blood is getting to me. My strength feels slightly depleted and I’m assuming it’s from Bree taking it, I take the chance of draining myself even further by misting us directly into the bedroom. Using the remaining energy has me spent and I nearly collapse onto the floor while still holding Bree, I can have her bleeding on the floor the scent of her blood will linger and just in case those celestial hunters come back I don’t want to leave anything behind. I still can’t get over the fact they found her, I know she was using magic to fight and run from me, but my house was warded no one should have been able to get in without alerting me. I place Bree on the bed and fall fast first at the end of
I have so many questions running through my head, but most of all I wish I could hug my mother one last time. I miss her so much, “Is this why I was made to leave?” I hear the deep intake of breath and brace myself for the answer “The day your mate mark revealed itself to you was the day your power started manifesting, We did what we did to protect you, my sweet child you are coming into your powers so much faster then we thought and are so much more powerful then we can have ever anticipated” I haven’t got long left Brehena she says, “Things have been set in motion and will only get worse if you are to win, there is a war coming. But right now there is power you have taken that you need to unleash. You need to understand your mate’s power”. This thing that’s allowing us to speak is this because of him, because I drank his blood? “Yes and no, being around him is bringing your power to the surface, the mate bond calls for balance. But both of you are destined for great things”. But my
So are you going to tell me what’s going on I demand looking straight at Adrian, who keeps stealing glances at Dominic. “Dont look t him, look at me I’m the one who needs answers I’m the one who has giant fucking wings and have no idea what to do with them” I’m angry I can feel myself getting worked up and I just want someone to tell me what’s happening. I know what my mother said and it’s replaying over and over in my head but nothing is making sense now, It’s like sensory overload and my brain can’t take much more of it. I want to cry at the fact that my mother spoke to me, I want to cry because I have a fated mate and I want to cry because there are people out hunting me. I don’t know how to use my powers My eyes keep sending a blinding white light out of them and now wings. Dominic comes up and wraps his arms around me and I feel myself instantly calm my heart rate slowing and I take in a much-needed breath. “Just hear him out okay?” Dominic says in my ear, I nod my head and then
After Adrian stormed out of the room I watched in awe as Bree still had me wrapped in her lightning ropes, I admit they do sting a little but nothing I would tell her, I clear my throat to get her attention I know I must look like a mess with the blood all over me from ripping into those blood bags, something is happening to me and I need to find out what because it’s becoming harder and harder to stay in control when my hunger is creeping up on me, but I have to make sure Bree is going to be watched and protected while I’m away for a few days. Adrian is pissed that’s for sure but he needs to pull his head out of his ass and realise that his sister is my mate, and nothing he says or does is going to interfere with us. Blood sharing on my part was a stupid idea I must admit but I couldn’t resist and maybe I should speak to Bree about it, Right now it can wait we have other things we need to discuss. “I think we need to work out somewhere for you to stay while you get your magic sorted”
The teacher walks around and starts to shout out instructions to everyone, As he makes his way towards me and halts, he looks at me knowing I have questions about this lesson. “Yes Brehena, I can practically see the questions spinning around in your head” Hmm I think to myself he called me Brehena, weird Adrian would give out my actual name to these people, but I brush it off and finally ask the question I need an answer to. “Since I don’t know how to summon my magic let alone use it properly, what am I meant to do here?” He seems to think it over and then smirks at me, That smirk though sends a shudder down my spine and not in a good way.”Well I guess don’t get killed would be a good start” Fucking asshole I think to myself. I watch then as he walks off and then I turn back to my partner, he looks ready to kill and I’m hoping I don’t fucking die here, Adrian isn’t around and Dominic isn’t here either and I have no way to even communicate with him. “Begin” the teacher instructs and w
Leaving Bree was harder than I thought, I didn’t say goodbye and I know I should have but I just couldn’t bring myself to. So as soon as I knew she was fine with going to the Academy of the Fallen I knew I had to leave, I really didn’t want to be here but I am in need of answers and I have a feeling my mother knows exactly what is happening with me.I need to confront her about what I have seen in Bree’s memories as well so killing two birds with one stone here will make it easier for me to head back to Bree. I portal to the grand monstrosity of a house my mother calls home and make my way inside, I don’t bother knocking or informing anyone of my arrival. I feel like the element of surprise is the way to approach what’s about to go down inside. My mother hates when people show up unannounced even her own son but I couldn’t give a shit what she thinks anymore, not after I found out that she has known who my mate is for so long and never mentioned to tell me.To think my own mother has
I wake sometime later to the same white blinding light and faint beeping of machines in the background, Adrian is nowhere to be seen and I let out a sigh of relief knowing he isn’t here. I need time to think and wrap my head around all the shit I just found out. What the fuck am I going to do, this is bad and I don’t want to have to break the news to Bree either.There has to be some way around it why does everything have to be doom and gloom when it comes to her and I? I just got her just tasted her and now this, what gods have I pissed off for this to happen. I move into a sitting position and take in my surroundings I am in the Academies infirmary by the looks of it and in a room on my own and now I’m wondering where Bree is, I need to see her and make sure she is okay because I have this feeling still that the yet is still to come.I push the blanket back and swing my legs over the side of the bed When I look down and see I’m in a gown, really a gown I internally cringe at the sit
I wake up to a scratchy feeling underneath me, I try and open my eyes but I feel they are so swollen that I can only open them to little slits. Everything hurts, my body feels mangled and my back is on fire with every little move I make. I feel the tears prick my eyes and the sting of them falling down my face is pure agony. I don’t know how much more I can take and I have only been here for what 24 hours? I try to focus on breathing to calm my nerves so I’ll stop crying.But it is no use the sob that comes from me is bone-crushing, it’s like I am pouring out every pain and sadness I have ever felt knowing I most likely won’t make it out of here alive. I start to shake upon hearing footsteps approach my cell. I can’t go through this again, I can’t go through the pain I felt again it is too much. Before I can react or move the door is flung open and I can just faintly make out two male-looking bodies. I try and move my body but it is of no use, every move seems to open the wounds on my
The thought of leaving Bree has my stomach in knots. Knowing she is laying there reliving all my memories is making me feel like shit. not long after she passed out there was a knock on the door, I was going to ignore it but I knew the only person it would be was Adrian.I threw on some sweatpants and went to the door, Adrian stood there with a panicked look on his face. I usher him inside and close the door he turns to me grabs me by the shoulders and tells me there has been a breach. “Dominic listen to me, someone got past the Academies wards and they are inside” My heart stops and I look over his shoulder at a sleeping Bree on my bed. They found her, they have come to take her. Adrian peers over his shoulder as well and I see him ball his fits at his sides.“Look man it was bound to happen, we are mates” He lets out a frustrated sigh and nods his head in understanding. I know it is hard for him to watch as this is his sister. We hear a bast sound in the distance and I know it’s get
I wake to someone throwing water all over me. The water is freezing and wherever I am is not warmer, the floor I lay on is hard and cold the stench of mould and dried blood hits my nostrils and makes me want to gag. I haven’t even been able to open my eyes and I feel where the woman kicked me that eye is completely swollen shut.I feel like shit, I feel sore and I am worried about what this will mean. How will Dominic react to knowing I am gone? I am scared I don’t know where I am and I have a feeling I am not going to make it out of here in this condition. The voices I hear around me are laughing and speaking in hushed whispers and it makes me shake from both the coldness I feel and the nervousness of what’s about to come.I groan when one of the men pushes me with his boot and I am forced to roll over, and the blinding light from the single bulbs hanging from the roof is blinding. I feel hands under my arms pulling me up and roughly dragging me into a seat that's positioned in the c
I find myself being pulled into some kind of rewinding memories. it starts off with me and Dom and then everything else is like it is being rewound, I can do nothing but wait till it stops.I feel my body but it’s like I am trapped and no matter how hard I try to move or come back into the land of the conscious I can’t. But I caught a glimpse of Dom’s face just before everything started moving, he looked concerned and scared. So I guess he knew this was going to happen.Finally, everything comes to a stop and the haze clouding everything becomes clearer and I can finally make out what everything is. It’s of Dominic as a child, he doesn’t look happy. He looks miserable and sad I see his facial expressions change quickly as someone approaches. It’s his Mother, the clack-clack of her high heels indicates she is on the warpath and her target is Dominic. He cowers a little when she stands directly in front of him, “Where have you been?”“I didn’t want to attend the feast today” She tsks at
As I look up at him with tears running down my face I see his fangs protrude and I feel his cock become rock hard he manages to command his shadows to fist my hair and yank my head off his cock. “Not yet princess” “I want to cum inside you, not down your throat” He pulls me to my feet and shuts the water off.He throws me over his shoulder and slaps my ass hard enough for me to hiss through my teeth. But it makes my pussy throb at the same time, H throws me on the bed and I let out a laugh as I bounce on the mattress. He lets out a small chuckle that is like music to my ears. He needs to do that more often.He gets on the mattress crawls up my body and positions himself right in between my legs. I feel his hard length nestled up near my belly button. He looks me in the eyes and I see he is having an internal debate with himself.I bring my hand up to his face and make him look at me “What’s wrong?” He leans into my touch and closes his eyes, when he opens them I see the glowing gold o
Finally after what feels like forever Dominic and I are able to leave the Academies infirmary. I can’t wait to leave this place and go back to my room, I need a shower I need food I just need to get away from here after that weird dream I had with that woman who killed my parents.I told Dominic everything and Adrian as well but I have a feeling he was reliving his own nightmares or something, I have a feeling he may know who this woman is or why she is so hell-bent on taking power from me. I never asked for this I never asked to inherit my mother’s power as well as gain my own.Dominic must be able to sense my inner thoughts and give my hand a reassuring squeeze, it somewhat calms me down but I think I just need a good scolding hot shower. We haven’t really spoken about what we don’t at the field and the fact that killed someone.I mean I have killed before when I couldn’t see with my eyes that time, but this time was different though, this time I felt like I was forced to do it but
As I am sucked into unconsciousness the pain finally stops, I don’t feel anything actually which is a nice change. I feel light and floaty kind of a weird sensation but relaxing calming even, I know I’m not fully asleep as I am aware of the sounds around me but I can’t wake up either.The day’s events play on my mind and I have a feeling that my partner Marcus was put up to bait me into losing control as I did, but it scared me I didn’t like who I became but I couldn’t stop I got off on the feeling even though I hated it at the same time.But I killed someone, I killed a young guy and I didn’t even feel bad about it. What is happening to me? Why am I so unbalanced and unhinged? Mum said I would have to learn how to wield my powers and learn how to balance them. But how can I learn balance when I feel my power is based on emotion and it’s always anger?As I lay here just floating along I start to hear things, at first I think it is the people around me but then the background noise get
