Clarence fought to control his anger as he stared at the woman in front of him. Though she looked like his Amelia, she wasn't, and she radiated the energy of a fucking succubus."How?" he growls, clenching and unclenching his fists. "How the fuck did I not see it before?"Many emotions rushed through Clarence, from betrayal to hurt to the need to kill."Please, Clarence," Amelia whispered, suddenly deflating so that the supernatural energy she had been radiating only moments earlier disappeared. "Let me…""Who the hell are you to ask anything of him?" Frank snarled, stepping between Clarence and Amelia. "You’ve been lying about your identity this whole time!""No, I…" Amelia tried again, but stopped as her eyes came to rest on her finger. "Oh no, where is it?"Whirling around, she began to desperately search the area for what Clarence realized was the ring that she usually wore.Jumping into action, he let his eyes take in the ground around them until they came to rest on the object A
Amelia struggled to break free of Frank’s hold as he drug her through the packlands while each member of the pack that mocked and ridiculed her watched in glee.‘Why aren’t you fighting?' Her succubus side growled, not bothering to hide her disgust over Amelia being compliant. ‘Don’t you know they’re going to kill you?’‘Clarence won’t,’ Amelia responded, though even she didn’t quite believe the words. ‘Once I explain, he will calm down.’‘You’re a fool.’‘Maybe.’Turning her focus back to the world around her, Amelia straightened her body. If she was going to be paraded through here, she was at least going to look dignified instead of like a true criminal who wanted to be believed to be innocent."You better not be about to try anything funny," Frank growled, tugging Amelia so hard she nearly went crashing forward."Before I’m locked away, I want to speak to Clarence," Amelia announced, hoping that the harsh beta would at least grant her that."Talk to him?" Frank repeated, seeming a
"But once this is finished, how about we...""Shut the fuck up!" Albert spat, unable to control the rage he felt staring into the succubus’ sparkling green eyes.Since the day she managed to feed off of him, all he could think about was killing her. Never in his life had he allowed his targets to get away, and her managing to do just that was a blow to his ego."Aw, you aren’t happy to see me?" she pouts, tightening her hold on Ben’s throat. "Then maybe I should finish with my business and head out."Beaming, she dug deep until her fingers penetrated the soft flesh of Ben’s throat.Albert’s eyes grew wide as his friend went motionless beneath the succubus, and all signs of life disappeared from his eyes."Whoops, guess I squeezed too hard."Standing, she lifted her hand to her mouth, running her tongue seductively along her bloodied fingers."You should have been good and listened."Letting out a shriek of laughter, she gave a stretch before wings erupted from her back and spread wide
Amelia sat alone against the wall, watching as Tobias busied himself checking on the hunter and bandaging his wounds."Tell me again why we are helping him." Victoria asked from her spot on the other side of the room. "This is the bastard that tried to kill us during our performance."Flinching, Amelia found herself realizing that it was due to her presence that her nomadic friends were put in danger. Honestly, if they should have been mad at anyone, it should have been her, not the hunter. After all, he was right in his anger after what she did to him."We can’t just turn a blind eye to those in need," Tobias responded simply. "Once he is treated, we will lock him up and figure out what to do with him next.""Kill him," Victoria offered, letting a mischevious smile spread across her face. "I don’t think there is much thinking to be done.""No."Slowly getting up, Amelia made her way over to Tobias and the hunter. "No?" Victoria repeated, furrowing her brows. "What the hell do you me
Amelia jerks backwards due to the hunter's strong dislike of her. Even though she should have expected as much, she couldn’t quite shake the pain she felt toward it."I will once you’ve calmed down," she says slowly, trying to keep her voice neutral. "But you should really try to relax, as your injuries could reopen."When the hunter was brought back with Amelia and the others, he was sporting deep scratches along his stomach and arms, all of which needed to be stitched up to keep him from bleeding out."I promise once you’re healed enough, you will be released, and we will disappear.""Disappear?" the hunter repeats, rage flashing in his eyes. "Like hell, that will happen! Do you know how long I’ve waited for the moment we met again so that I could take your life with my own hands?"Giving a sad smile, Amelia simply shook her head."You’ll have to get in line for that, I’m afraid."Now that she had enough time to process it, she knew that he, along with the rest of the kingdom of Vi,
"Is this the last of them?"Clarence’s voice rang out, drawing his underlings attention toward him.He was pretty sure that all the hunters that littered the ground were all the ones present, but he wasn’t about to risk the chance of any still hanging around."Frank," he continued, spotting his beta close by. "Have you scouted the area?""Yes, alpha," Frank responded. "There are no more hunters."Nodding, Clarence found himself beginning to relax. Great, there were no more hunters, so for now his pack was safe, but that didn’t necessarily mean that this wouldn’t happen again."You should take better care of protecting her."The kitsune’s words echoed in his mind unbidden, causing a wave of conflicting emotions to begin to roll through Clarence."Fucking hell."Letting out a string of profanities, he began to take in the area around him. Noting how all the tents that his pack mates lived in were in fact not safe if a serious threat were to come their way."Maybe it is time to relocate,
Amelia continued to stare at Albert as he seemed to come out of whatever daze he had been in from her prying on his memories. "What the fuck did you just do?" he growled, attempting to lash out. "Who saved who?" "You," Amelia responded, still trying to make sense of what she saw. "When we were kids, but why don’t either of us remember?" Frowning, Amelia tried her hardest to recall the memory she saw, but even she couldn’t find that she had it. "You shouldn’t waste your breath on him," Victoria huffed, deciding to break the silence that was beginning to fall around them. "It’s clear that he didn’t care enough to remember it, so you shouldn’t care too much either." Even though Amelia knew that she was probably right, she couldn’t help the warring emotions she was beginning to feel. She and this hunter had a history, and they were clearly close enough for him to risk his life, but why were they like this now? ‘Those emotions are going to ruin you,’ her succubus side warned. ‘You nee
The world around Amelia faded in and out as she tried to get her bearings. How much time had passed since she came out here to clear her head? How much time did it take for her other self to completely combine with her current self?‘How do you feel?’Feel… That was an interesting question, given that she didn’t feel anything.Frowning, Amelia lifted her hands and examined them as if they were foreign to her, but they were her own. The same slender fingers, the same pale skin lightly peppered with freckles. She was still her, but she didn’t feel like her.‘Fine, I think,’ Amelia responded, slowly getting to her feet. ‘I just feel... nothing.’‘No pain?’ her succubus self purred. ‘Has all the heartache that bastard werewolf caused you disappeared?’‘Yeah.’If she truly thought about it, all her heartache was gone, as was the confusion she felt in regards to the hunter and the odd memory she found.‘Then you should head back to camp and face that damned bastard Albert.’Not seeing any r
When Amelia arrives back at the Nomads domain, there is a lot of fussing going on, and all of it is coming from the cabin that Albert was being kept in. Gasping, she rushes forward and barges into the cabin to find that Victoria is hovering over the hunter with a knife at his throat.“Where is she?” She hisses, pressing the blade against his skin enough to draw blood. “Tell me where you’ve taken Amelia!”“I told you I haven’t done anything!” Albert growls before his eyes snap to Amelia. “She’s right fucking there!”As he speaks, Victoria’s eyes slowly pull away from the hunter’s face and come to rest on Amelia’s. However, they don’t stay there long before they’re traveling to her neck, and a look of fury crosses her face.“You went to see that wolf bastard?” She roars, pressing her knife harder against Albert’s throat so that a grunt of pain escapes him. “What the fuck were you thinking?”“First,” Amelia says, taking a tentative step forward. “Move your weapon.”“Why?” Victoria asks,
The next morning, Clarence woke up to Amelia’s scent, but when he turned over, half expecting her to be in bed with him, he found that the space beside him was empty and cold.“Fuck,” he growled, looking down at his bare body. “What the actual fuck happened?”Sitting up, he looked around his tent, taking in all the empty beer bottles that covered the floor, and realized that he had drank too much.“Must have been from the alcohol,” he grumbled, getting up and throwing on some clothes. “There’s no fucking way she would be stupid enough to come here anyway.”Deciding that he was simply yearning for her in his delirious state, he began to exit his tent, only to stop as Nadia came rushing in.“Alpha!” She gasped, her wide eyes taking in the space around him. “There…”“There what?” Clarence snapped. “What the hell is it so fucking early?”“There has been a death.”“Death?” He roared, storming past Nadia and out onto the grounds to take in the group that stood around something, or rather, s
The room around Clarence swayed as he brought his fourth, or maybe fifth, bottle to his lips. Downing its contents, he throws it against the ground and then slumps onto his bed."Fuck!" he growled, throwing his arm over his eyes as if it would stop the fucking spins. “What the hell?"So far, no one had managed to find a single trace of Amelia, and despite knowing he shouldn’t give two shits if she was dead or alive, Clarence couldn’t stop the torrent of emotions in his body.‘Mate,’ Griffin whimpered, causing Clarence’s frustration to grow more. ‘Find her.’‘She isn’t our fucking mate!’That’s right. She wasn’t Clarence’s fucking mate. She was a damn succubus that tricked him with her powers, and that was why he couldn’t stop the attraction he felt toward her.‘But her abilities were blocked,’ Griffin counters, showing Clarence a picture of the ring that Amelia always wore. ‘She was sincere.’Sincere. There was nothing sincere about a fucking succubus. They were evil, and they pretend
Soft moans of delight escape Bryllie’s lips as Amelia’s tongue swirls around her nipple and her teeth nip at it.“Amelia,” she whispered, wrapping her hand in Amelia’s long strawberry hair.“What is it, beautiful?” Amelia purred, lifting her glazed gaze to meet Bryllie’s. “You aren’t wanting me to stop, are you?”“No,” Bryllie whimpered, caressing her head. “I want you to do more.”As she speaks, Bryllie’s skin flushes ever so slightly from the embarrassment of admitting her deepest desire. If only Amelia knew just how Bryllie felt for her from the minute she laid eyes on her there in the woods tied to that tree.Since then, she had been watching her while she made mistake after mistake, and when she decided to go to that wolf, it was a harsh blow. And although Bryllie had made him promise to take proper care of Amelia, he still fucked up, and after that, she couldn’t possibly let another soul hurt the woman she loved.“Make love to me,” Bryllie continued. “Make me feel like I’m the o
“Are you sure?”Jimin’s words leave his lips slowly as he continues Amelia’s request. Was she sure? Of course, she was sure of this.She had the entire kingdom of Vi after her, and if she didn’t learn to fight and hone in on her succubus abilities, she would be nothing more than a sitting duck.“I don’t want others to continue to get hurt because of me,” she said slowly. “I want to be able to not only protect myself but also those I care about.”Right. This was what she wanted. She couldn’t continue to be that weak girl who grew up in the convent. That girl was gone, and she would never return.“We can easily handle things,” Jimin pointed out, not quite budging. “You really don’t…”“I do,” Amelia countered, cutting him off before he could continue. “This isn’t only for those around me; this is for me. I’ve been weak my entire life and accepted things as they were because I was led to believe that it was the way of our goddess, but how can I possibly continue to trust in the plan of an
