Thousands and thousands of books were lined up on huge wooden book cases not only were they above me on a balcony but the walls were lined in the same huge book cases shelves upon shelves packed full of different colors and thicknesses of books. Some of these massive book cases were vertical in the center of the room also lined with more beautiful books on their shelves. Glass windows were at the very top of the roof line letting in a perfect amount of natural light. The smells that filled my nose were heavenly all these old paper pages packed in the room permeated of leather and ink hints of oak lingered from the massive wooden shelves.

I scanned my eyes above me along the perfectly carved shelving that housed them so many different shades of colors were on the spines none had names probably rubbed off over the years of use. Large solid wood tables with comfortable looking chairs were strategically placed throughout the main open area it was like a whole library was picked up and pl

    It was late afternoon by the time Leo and I made it back from lunch with Kris, I wish I could say she took my findings well but she didn't. I told her Leo had a friend who had a few books related to twins and shared genes but they didn't have any information on telepathy, dream sharing emotional auras or blockages. My hope was to convince her that some twin abilities just couldn’t be figured out, I mean we never told anyone so maybe others had felt the same? I couldn't bring myself to openly tell her all about the supernaturals we were surrounded by let alone all the actual information I had just found out on them. Unfortunately it I wouldn’t have that luxury after what she said to me at lunch, she had the whole conversation changing away from our twin issues that now festered a whole new assortment of problems that have rendered me speechless.*Flashback to 3hours ago*We picked up Kris and took her to a small restaurant on the out skirts of the city, even with Leo present Kris was de

    Theodeus Castellanos sat at the bar top engaging with Angie like they were long time friends, I’ll admit she was definitely putting on a show though her laughs were airy and she touched his bicep ever so slightly while she found humor in whatever they were conversing about. I know she wasn’t trying to be but to most women her actions could easily be misconstrued. To me now that I knew her so well she came off mostly as extremely charming, her interactions would have been the same if it were a woman she was sitting with. Her way of hospitality didn’t bother me anymore it was Theodeus presence here that irked me. Watching his body language at the as I turned towards them so casual with her like old friends I could tell the moment he acknowledged my presence his back muscles tensed under his shirt as he adjusted himself to sit straighter, his elbows were bent to rest on the bar as he intertwined his fingers pressing his thumbs together keeping his head turned to Angie as they spoke back n

    laying on my futon couch scrolling on my phone it’s been over an hour since Theo walked me the rest of the way to my office and since then my mind has been replaying our passionate encounter, I was swept literally off my feet by him but I couldn’t wrap my head around as to why. After going in circles in my mind I eventually got restless and decided to do something I haven’t done since I was in high school. Getting up from where I was laying I dug threw my bags and found a sports bra along with a pair of black tight leggings slipping them on and my sweater I tied my bright colored Nike trainers on and slipped out of my office and down the hallway to the door to the back portion of the property. I was severely out of shape but I figured jogging was like riding a bike you never forget right?I knew going outside in the middle of the night was probably not the best idea but Leo being my local werewolf meant he was out probably out there and there wasn’t a single thing I could think of tha

    “Go a ways back? You mean like when you were kids?” I asked Theo “Something like that” Leo chimed in darkly Both of their facial expressions gave nothing away as to why they clearly didn’t like one another, but Theo’s eyes glittered in the dimly lit area the three of us stood in. I couldn’t be sure but his eyes seemed to hint at something but as quick as the emotions came they were gone “Your not gonna tell me right now are you?” I looked between Leo and Theo inquisitively Leo looked on at Theo in askance as I waited for them to clarify “No Doll, right now is not the time for that story” Theo grabbed my hand in his pulling my gaze from Leo who was now walking into the woods“Get her back inside” he instructed “Oh and Theodeus, don’t get to comfortable here” Leo shifted back into his huge silver wolf barreling off threw the trees out of sight“Still as welcoming as a cactus I see” he chuckled dryly shaking his head“Not usually, I’ve never seen Leo treat anyone in a way they didn

    Theodeus POV I couldn’t let her go alone to her office, Ares wouldn’t have it either so we went after her. The initial shock I had seeing a burn caused by her bare hands paled in comparison to the pure static electricity radiating around her as she stormed off it was almost like a trail she left behind. I couldn’t fathom the way she was feeling right now since nobody has filled her in on a damn thing, she says she’s not a shifter but humans don’t get hot enough to burn anything let alone hot enough to cause permanent damage to a shifters skin. It made no sense to me why it happened but yet it did and instead of being able to help her figure out this world she has unknowingly been living in for the last 10 years, now I want to help her figure out what she is. I know it sounds like I’m being selfish but there’s nothing selfish about needing to be near her, Ares noticed she was different the moment he herd her voice on the phone. Ever since then she is all he can talk about. Except for r

    I looked down at Bec one more time as I followed Leo out to the hallway, unsure of the time we didn’t linger there we walked outside and headed to where Leo was staying. Once we got inside his room he confirmed what I already had been thinking “I don’t know how much Bec knows about Dorians death but she was the one who was told about it being a murder” I was wrong, so wrong no wonder she is hostile not only did he mess her up in the head while he was alive but he couldn’t even give her peace after he died. “Who is sick in the head enough to tell her that?” “It being her truth to tell I can only say it was a Demon. Asmodeus has been involved and now some time in august The 7 will also be here since they hold information Connor wants” “Has he gone completely mad?!” I snarled at him “Easy save it for another time, definitely not with me” he deadpanned “Bring the 7 here? I wish to the goddess you didn’t just tell me that!” “Listen it’s more than just about Dorians death, Connor believes w

    CONNOR POV*The night after he left 1 month from present*I materialized in the stone archway to Nikolai’s castle in Strömstad Sweden, one of many castles the three of us owned threw out Nordic Europe. I didn’t make an attempt to reach out to Nik prior to my arrival I figured he would sense my magic once we were near, giving him no way to run since neither of my sons had magic quite like mine. Nikolai couldn’t run away anymore I was prepared for the backlash from him for choosing to support Dorian in his “traitorous” life. The lines blur heavily between Fenris and I most supernatural beings have extended lives where as we are immortal living now for over 1,000 years I think it would be unnatural if we didn’t mirror one another in some kind of way other than physically when we shift. Nikolai and Hati always struggled being bonded. I’d dare go as far as saying he is very much like Fenris where Sköll was like me the human part it was a risk Fenris didn’t consider when he decided to procr

    There was no right way of doing things when it came to Nikolai so when I found him he was quite literally on the edge of a cliff. As I approached him I could quickly tell by his ridged posture he had no intentions of walking back to the castle with me so we could properly clear the air.“Don’t Connor I don’t want to hear excuses” he calmly yelled threw the wind and over the torrent of crashing waves down below“I will go with you back to America not because I forgive him, her or you..” He left the reason why hanging between us. He didn’t have to say it out loud I already knew why he was coming back, Dorian would have done the same for him. He turned his head to look at me from our side by side position“I will need a few weeks before we can leave”Before I could ask him what he meant he lunged forward into the sea below us. He wouldn’t die from any of the injuries he was going to sustain and as much as I wanted to use magic to retrieve him I knew he would just do it again given the ch

    Releasing them after the forced shift, I catch him as Nik's own voice continued his internal screams"Kill me Connor!!! Just end it all I can’t live like this anymore!!!!” His pleas are frantic, as I hold him his entire body convulses with the emotional turmoil.“I don’t want to live anymore!!! I don’t want to see another sun to rise!! 800 years is long enough!” He continued to sob threw his yelling of obscenity’s begging me to end him, attempting to provoke Fenris saying anything to call him out, but we refused to engage his requests. I know how he is feeling all too well, we both felt the same wanting to rip ourselves apart just to feel anything after his life bond snapped, the numbness he has been pushing away will help him get through this but first he has to feel. We will help him get through this.“Let it in Nik it’s the only way we will get threw”“He won’t come back if I do”“He’s not coming back, he’s dead Nik” saying the words was like rubbing course salt in an open wound bu

    All I knew for certain was one of them was my friend and I couldn’t just leave him to get killed. I could still hear thuds and growls as I slowly stepped over broken tree limbs trying to keep myself hidden so I could have the upper hand of a surprise attack. I didn’t hear anymore thuds or sounds of them attacking each other as I came up to were I seen both of them moving slowly circling one another. Neither one looked like they were ready to back down any time soon teeth were still bared and low rumbling could still faintly be herd from both massive wolves. I took another step while crouched down but snapping branches under my feet gave me away.SHITBoth wolves heads snapped in my direction two sets of glowing eyes were now fixed on me watching as I stood up straight. It was the black wolf that made a move in my direction. It’s silver eyes looked like moonlight so bright and clear as it’s posture softened no longer could I see it’s teeth but I could hear and see it’s breath in the ai

    “This seat taken?” He motioned to it with a drink in his hand“Nope” I made sure to pop the P as he sat down in the large wooden chair that he filled with his massive frame. I watched him with hooded eyes as the shadows from the fire danced around us. I greedily ran my eyes over his form. I watched in fascination as his thigh muscles rippled with every slight movement under the jeans he was wearing. His upper half was covered in a hoodie that fit his bulky form deliciously. I knew from seeing him earlier that the dark cotton material was hiding all the mouthwatering dips and curves of muscle his t-shirts did a wonderful job of highlighting, he was perfect I really meant it when I said he was built like a God. Unsure as to why he was here in front of me I broke the silence first“What are you doing here still?” Not that I mind too much but nonetheless I was curious“Does it bother you I am here?” He hummed his question not looking at me but at the fire“Why do you care what bothers me?
