ELLE

My body felt weighed down by some unseen force within the darkness. Everything hurt. Goddess, I had never once felt pain like this before even though I was personally acquainted with all types of pain. This felt like lava was flooding through my veins.

My body was stuck in limbo while the pain raged without mercy. That was until the burning lava began to diminish. It was not done quickly, but the fact that it lessened at all was an answer to my unspoken prayers.

The first thing that I noticed was that there were other people here too. My senses came back little by little. My hearing was the first sense, so I did my best to remain unmoving as the rest made their journey from the Valley of Bones into the land of the living.

“How long do you think it’ll take for the bastard Alpha to give up looking for her?”

My mind was still foggy, but I would recognize that voice anywhere. It was one I often heard in my nightmares. The ones when I was asleep and awake. Dulaney was the last per

I would hate to be those two when Kade and Gabriel get their hands on them.

I hope they all get tortured with wolfsbane. The ones who raped Elle and other omegas should have the wolfsbane also put on their dicks!!

    KADE Everyone was giving me breathing room because I was wound up very tightly. We needed to find her, and we needed to find her now. The ticking of the clock did nothing but crank up my anxiety. Apollo noticed my glare earlier and had already removed both clocks in the room. He was too good of a friend and Beta. I always prided myself on control. It was required as an Alpha. Gramps and my father both instilled that into me from a very young age. Temper tantrums as a pup were used as teaching moments. There was a time when I was four that cried and wailed because the wheel on my toy car broke off. That was not an issue at all looking back, but it was devastating as a pup. My father came to me and asked me what was wrong. I showed him the car and held it out for him to fix. My father shook his head and told me that he would not fix it. He shattered my heart into a million pieces with his words. “I won’t fix it, son. But I’ll sit with you and help you learn to fix it yourself. You ca

    GABRIEL I met my best friend on the worst day of my life. It was that moment that drew us together, creating an inseparable bond that was eventually blessed by Selene. My parents joined the Blue Crest pack right around the time that Alpha Andrew took his title. Life was not as bad for Omegas back then. Alpha Andrew believed that his father had been too weak in ruling the over the pack, and the Omegas began being used as bargaining chips to strengthen the pack. My parents died when I was nine, but nobody told me what happened to them. It was not until I was older that I learned the truth. The warriors got carried away with taking out their frustrations. That was what our kind was used for after all. That was our purpose in this godforsaken pack. I was sitting underneath the tree that my father taught me to climb. My heart was broken, and I was crying for their loss. I did not know what to do. I had no parents or family now and was all alone. A girl my age knelt down in front of me

    KADE There was a large crowd of people waiting outside the hospital when we arrived, waiting to find out about Elle. Apollo pulled up to the front door where there was a medical team waiting as well. Gabriel opened the back door while I picked her up and got out, cradling her to my chest. I finally allowed the relief to flood through me because we got her here safe and sound. My heart refused that relief until I knew that she was safe, and now she was. “This is the best medical staff from our pack,” Gerald, another Council member explained so that I understood that they were trustworthy. “Thank you all. The healer said she’ll need a blood transfusion. She’s O negative, so I’ll donate as much as possible for her before we rely on the blood here. I don’t even trust this pack as far as I can throw it.” The doctor acknowledged what I said and had me lay her down on the gurney so that they could get started on her. My arms were both hooked up to donate blood not even ten minutes later.

    ELLE The last thing that I felt was the excruciating pain of being strung up on the wall and being whipped over and over again. It was not the first time that a whip was taken to my flesh, but the difference this time was that I still had the wolfsbane on my skin which then got inside of the cuts every time the whip split my skin apart. My final thought before everything turned black was a pair of grey eyes that belonged to my mate. I held out as long as I could until my body fell into the void. Beep. Beep. Beep. The sound was the first thing that I became aware of. The second thing was feeling of being encased in warmth. It was not like the fire of wolfsbane. It was a warmth that brought tantalizing sparks with it. The third thing was the scent of cinnamon espresso. He found me just like I knew he would. I never doubted that he would come for me or that he would save me. “Please come back to me, darling. I’ve never once needed anything in life more than I need you. I’m sorry th

    KADE I never once imagined that my eyes would ever see Selene’s realm. I knew that she mentioned that Elle would get to see Grant, and Gabriel mentioned that Elle was brought here before, but never had it occurred to me that I would get the opportunity to as well. This realm was an odd experience but in the best of way. My heart and soul felt at peace here as if the problems of life could not touch us within these borders. That was until she said that we needed to discuss things that would impact the future. “Let us start with you Elle. You have a decision to make regarding Alpha Andrew,” Selene began. “What do you mean?” she asked. Elle’s head tilted, and a cute little furrow settled between her brows. My mate was everything from adorable to sexy and back again. I had come to realize that her features were very expressive if she was not hiding it. She could entirely wipe expression off her appearance if she wanted to just like how she did when facing the Alpha family at dinner th

    ELLE “Luna Elle, I’m Dr. Trenton. How are you feeling?” “A lot stronger than before. I haven’t heard Faye yet, but I feel her beginning to stir,” I said with a wide smile. It was a relief that I could feel her because I had been terrified that they had hurt her. Dr. Trenton nodded and began checking my vitals. My eyes were very sensitive when he shined the flashlight in them. He apologized when I winced. “Your eyes might be a little sensitive for the next few hours. It’s a side effect of the wolfsbane. Well, everything looks great. Faye might feel a little off when she becomes fully aware. It’s nothing to worry about. Having your mate next to you will also help her. Once she feels up to shifting, I suggest that you take it slowly. Don’t let her get too carried away until she feels completely steady. Any questions?” I looked at Kade to see if he did, but we both shook our heads. Dr. Trenton pretty much covered it. This was the first time that I had actually been to the hospital, so

    ELLE ‘I leave for a couple of days and come back to a sexy shower scene,’ Faye teased me. I let out a verbal squeal by accident when I heard her voice. Goddess, I had missed Faye something fierce. It had not been until I could not rouse her that I truly understood her importance in my life and how much she meant to me. Kade looked at me curiously, obviously not understanding where the excitement was coming from. I just tapped the side of my head. “Welcome back, Faye.” Relief was evident in his voice. I could only imagine what it had been like for him and Tyre while I was out. “Are you okay, Faye? We were worried about you,” I said aloud, so that Kade could be part of the conversation. Kade’s smile of appreciation lit up his face entirely. I did not have to do it, but I knew that if I spoke like this then she would also talk through me so that both Kade and Tyre would then hear the conversation too. We did not have the mindlink just yet, so this would have to do. “I would’ve come

    KADE I could not believe that my mate had been worried about how she would compare to other she-wolves. There was no comparison because nobody could ever possibly be on her level. Nobody could even begin to hold a candle to her. I could tell her that, but she needed to realize the truth for herself. There was an intense spike of realization when I told her that she held the control. Her first question gave me the answer as to what the realization was. She realized that I would submit to her, and I did because she was someone worthy of my submission. “Claim what’s yours, mate,” she whispered into the shell of my ear. Those words went straight to my cock. “Oh, I plan on it,” I told her before flipping us so that she was underneath me. I pulled her off the bed and knelt down to untie her sneakers. Her fingers went into my hair, causing me to rumble. I loved having her hands in my hair and playing with it. I always hated when other people did it but not her. Once her shoes were done,

    SNEAK PEEK FROM FATED SOUL – FATED LIGHT – DANTE “How did you do it?” I asked Kade as I ran my fingers through my hair for the hundredth time today. He pushed a glass of Bourbon to me. It was gone in one swallow. I was a little on fucking edge. Sue me. “I’m not going to lie to you. It’s fucking difficult. I have no idea how I did it because I wanted nothing more than to rip the last breath from each person that hurt my mate. I wanted to watch as their lifeforce left their bodies. Fucking hell. I wished that I could murder every single bastard that even thought something negative about her. However, I realized that destroying them was also about me. It wasn’t just about what happened to Elle. It was about me feeling like a failure for not protecting my mate even though I didn’t know who she was yet.” Kade placed his hands on my shoulders and gave them a comforting squeeze. I came to Kade because he had been in a similar position to what I was in right now. His mate, my sister, ha

  • Fated Rejection - Fated Claim   Epilogue

    ELLE “You can sit the presents over there,” I said, pointing to the table. Today was the twins’ first birthday. Everyone decided to throw a huge party in celebration. Nightshade, Shadow Falls, Dark Moon, our vamps, our Fae friends, and our fiery dragons all came to spend this special day together. Our boys were little heartbreakers already. They were Alpha pups on steroids when it came to their strength and size. They looked more like they were two instead of one. Then they had the intelligence of years beyond themselves. They were their own species so to speak. It was exciting and scary at the same time. We just wanted them to be carefree pups, but they were destined to be so much more. “Oi,” Denny grunted as Gabriel Reece plowed into him. Our boys began walking at about six months. They were little hellions with how fast they were. Not to mention that they were already befriending the shadows. Oddly, the boys never did anything harmful. It was like they were self-aware.

  • Fated Rejection - Fated Claim   Chapter 132

    KADE Time had passed by quickly, and life moved on with it. Those bastards involved in Ada’s murder and Anya’s attempted murder, had been tortured until every single detail was spilled. There really had not been much left in them, but we enjoyed exacting justice for what they did. Apparently, Ada had no idea who the bastard was when he got her pregnant. He essentially had roofied her at the library one day when she was studying. It made sense why she had dropped out of school and moved back to the pack after that. She had been drugged, raped, and gotten pregnant from it. It was not until they were torturing her that she learned the truth all along. The bastard took great pleasure in detailing exactly what happened, including using illegal herbs to force becoming pregnant. Elle made sure that I sliced his dick off for that bit. Only my mate could sit in the corner of a torture chamber and eat mint chocolate chip ice cream while giving us suggestions here and there without being aff

    ELLE Kade insisted that we get a checkup when we got back to the pack. I could not deny him the reassurance that the twins and I were okay because I knew how terrified he had been about me being on that battlefield in the first place. I had asked Dante if he wanted to come as well since he had not really been present since he was at Dark Moon during everything. It was where he needed to be, but he was back here now. “We’ll be doing your scan. Is there anything new that you’ve experienced, Luna?” Dr. Silva asked as she prepared the machine. I bit my lip, trying to think of how to explain the odd occurrence on the battlefield. I had not even mentioned it to anyone, so I hoped that Kade remembered how much he loved me. “There was an unavoidable situation –” I was cut off by my mate. “She means a battle,” Kade interrupted, giving me a pointed look. Dr. Silva looked at me with widened eyes as if that was the last thing she had expected to hear. I understood how this looked from an ou

    ELLE The battle with Bandore really had not been a battle at all. The closest thing that I had experienced were feeding rooms. However, even that did not compare to this right here and now. Adrenaline pulsed throughout my body, reminding me to stay alert at all times. There was no room for our failure here because that would mean the death of all involved as well as the pack behind us. There was no greater honor than to be given the opportunity to save those who needed us. Brynn had an important destiny, one that I was not privy to know the details of other than she was a prophesized and chosen Vessel. My cryptic ass wolf just loved annoying the shit out of me like that. ‘You know me so well,’ she cooed. ‘I couldn’t ask for a better wolfy than you.’ ‘And I couldn’t ask for a better human than you. I’m blessed that Selene chose me to be your wolfy.’ I smiled despite the carnage everywhere. Faye just proved that there was beauty that could be found even in the midst of damaging ch

    ELLE Kade and I grabbed a few hours of sleep before making our way down to the Command Center as Apollo so conveniently named it. We had all of our leadership, a conglomeration of our vamp friends, Caiathus’ brothers, the Council, Mystra, Fyst, and Celeste as well. Gabriel and Ansley pushed in coffee carts, and my entire day finally felt right. I eagerly grabbed my specialty drink that was always perfectly made. I sighed as the first sip hit my taste buds. “You still really suck, sis. It’s not fair that you can drink caffeine,” Ansley huffed. “You could always take it up with Selene,” I said coyly, taking another sip. Gabriel vehemently shook his head back and forth behind her. He apparently did not like that idea whatsoever. “Why would you be against your amazing mate asking for such a simple thing? Do you not want her to have caffeine? Perhaps you shouldn’t be having caffeine either then if you’re going to be unfair to my amazing sister,” I told him with mock shame. Her head

    KADE I was waiting for our people to finish putting the trash in the cells and join me in the office. Honestly, I needed a bit of time to cool down before I dealt with them unless we wanted to just snap their necks and be done with it all. That seemed too lenient a punishment for them though. The memory of finding Ada’s body would forever haunt me until I drew my last breath. Nobody deserved that type of treatment or death. I sighed, rubbing my eyes, and scrubbing a hand over my face. It was seriously throwing me for a loop that we had traitors in our pack and in our ranks yet again. Would there ever come a day when traitors would no longer exist within Nightshade? It was like an endless cycle that we could never break from. Ada and Anya deserved justice. What would that be though? How much would be enough? Honestly, nothing would ever be enough because they suffered far too much. I grabbed the framed scan of our pups from my desk and smiled at it. They were such a blessing alrea

    ELLE His daughter. Anya was his daughter. I tried, and failed, to understand what that claim meant because he willingly murdered his own pup. He did not know she was alive, and he never would. He was a threat that we would eliminate before he could even think about sending any harm her way. “You knew who Ada was to you,” Kade said, coming to the same conclusion that I did. “Of course, I did,” he said nonchalantly. “Ada was a full-blooded witch. I was only half-blooded. However, I knew that a child between the two of us would yield even stronger magic than if I sought someone else out. It was for the greater good.” Kade did not like that at all, so a shadow slid across the bastard’s throat, strangling him. My mate held it for a count of five before the shadow relaxed but did not move from his throat. “You mean it was for your greater good,” I spat coldly. He smirked at me and looked very pleased with himself. I returned the smirk with one of my own because he was about to see a s

    KADE I woke up with a start, heart pounding, and not understanding what was going on. It felt like my emotions were drowning me. Elle’s side of the bed was cold, causing me to jump out of bed and find her. We still had no idea who the hell killed Ada, so we had no idea who we could trust outside of our own leadership. We had been down the road of traitors before, but I did not expect us to be back there once again. Was this a cycle we would always face? I threw on some shorts and went to find my mate. It was not hard to find her, but my heart broke when I did. She was in the living room, rocking back and forth on the floor, sobbing her heart out. “I’m here, darling. I’ve got you,” I murmured as sat down and pulled her onto my lap. She buried her face in my chest and continued to cry for Ada and Anya. I was right there with her as tears welled up in my eyes as well for them and for her as well. My mate was the strongest person that I knew. She survived years of being tortured in e
