54|Gut Feel
~Elijah~
I told myself to take things slowly. Care for Rory like she was a delicate flower that needed the gentlest touch. She’s in a shaky situation right now. I can sense it; her desire to be with me, the push to run away from this unknown reality of the supernatural world, and the pull of our mate bond.
But goddamn it! She won’t stop testing my control. Being this close to her is thrashing my sense of right and wrong to dust.
She squirmed beneath me, not to get free but to rub her body on mine like a feline. I had her legs trapped between mine, but she arched her body like a sneaky vixen, her core rubbing against my cock. It jumped to attention as if it had a mind of its own and knew how close this woman, my mate, was to me.
“Fucking hell, Rory,&rdqu

~Rory~I’ve been watching Elijah sleep, fascinated by how calm and serene his face was. I didn’t even know that vampires sleep as well. Sure they need to rest, but he kind of snores, which I found so damn adorable.Smiling to myself, I bit my lip and traced his face with my eyes. His dark curls had fallen in waves, covering almost half of his face. Long dark lashes kissed his cheeks, concealing his steely gray eyes I love staring at me with fondness. Soft freckles dusted the perfect slope of his nose, leading down to his slightly parted lips.I couldn’t help it. I reached to gather his hair, tucking the soft fallen curls in the back of his ears.He stirred awake, eyelids parting, as I smiled shyly for waking him up. “Hi.”
Hellbound: The Last Tribute 56|Second Phase
~Rory~Crickets. Thousands of them singing inside my head.Of all the possible conclusions of this prophecy, me being a sacrificial lamb has never crossed my mind.“Fuck,” Elijah rubbed his hand over his face, looking at me with clouded emotions.“I...” I swallowed hard, groping blindly for the back of the chair within my reach, grabbing onto it; the marbled floor beneath my feet turned to puddles. It makes sense now. The gruesome deaths, the six-pointed star carving on each victim’s forehead, the missing hearts... It’s a sacrificial ritual. “Your soul,” I murmured, each puzzle piece slotting together now. “I am your twin flame, and my death will complete your soul.”
Hellbound: The Last Tribute 57|Cage
~Rory~Elijah’s kisses had always been out of this world. The kind that turned my knees to jelly and muscles to mush. However, this one was different. It’s not only emotionally exhilarating but there was a physical charge of electricity that cascaded from where our skin touched to my entire body.Prickles of gentle fire ignited under my skin, setting my world to burn with flames of impetuous passion. It was uncontrollable. Each slide of Elijah’s lips against my own had my heartbeat walloping wildly.My blood simmered - literally - I had to set my hand on Elijah’s chest, needing space to breathe. It was too intense; the emotions enveloped me.“Focus on me,” he murmured, hooking his thumb under my chin. His eyes clouded with affection, h
Hellbound: The Last Tribute 58|The Situation
~Rory~ I hope I had lost count of how many times I watched Elijah drown; the darkness devouring us together, but to no avail. My consciousness of the agonizing torment remained intact every time we’d go back to the beginning, knowing where we would end. I was exasperated by not finding out the solution to our recurring situation. This is my cage. Elijah cited this repeatedly through the past fourteen sequences of us living and dying, but I still haven’t figured out the problem that needs to be solved. My tears were real. My fear and pain of losing Elijah were real, but why is it that all my efforts into saving him were futile? We went back in circles, an actual limbo of death and life. “Elijah…” I clung to him. Every par
Hellbound: The Last Tribute 59|For Argument’s Sake
~Rory~ “Is something wrong?” I asked, growing conscious of the way everyone was gazing at me. I sat up straight, pushing a lock of my golden hair out of my face. I froze, twirling a few more locks so I could scrutinize it. I was struck dumb when I realized I didn’t see things the wrong way. Indeed, my hair was gold. Frantic, heart pounding in my chest, I took a few more strands. They were golden, like the streak of the sun passing through the mountain pass at the crack of dawn. In search of an explanation, I met Elijah’s gaze. “Leave us,” he said. Ali vanished into thin air while Nolani and Henry exited the room through the door. Jace, however, didn’t leave as uncoerced as everyone else.
Hellbound: The Last Tribute xx
Hi guys, this is not such a nice way to start a new month, but I kind of uploaded an older version of chapter 59 Argument's sake. Even the chapter title was wrong. I'm so sorry. Because of this, I have to wait until Monday, Apr 4, for my editor to approve the upload change of the right chapter.I went to the mountains for a few days. I think my mind was still in vacation mode.Anyway, there's not much change in the thought of the chapter or the scenes. It's just that the presentation was a bit messed up. I mean, drafts are always messy.Again, I apologize for being so messed up these last few weeks, and thank you for understanding. xx 4.2.22
Hellbound: The Last Tribute 60|An Investigation
~Rory~The werewolves and witches led by Maestro aim to finish the ritual and gain what they lost. And then there are the royal vampires led by their king Greco who would do everything to prevent the prophecy from taking place.It was like a game of push and pull, a miss or hit. These supernatural races are determined to see me die and use me for their own benefits.‘I’m going to die either way,’ I said to Elijah. ‘I better live my life the way I wanted to.’It was more complicated than it looks, though. Elijah told me I have to act normal, count my movements and be careful in showcasing my abilities.Apparently, apart from my hair - which Nolani helped me dye back to its original color - my spee

~Rory~I was on edge all day, thinking of how stupid I had been to believe that Paul would be on my side this whole time. I sensed his lies, but I blindly trusted my human instinct, which has proven to be a huge mistake. To keep my mind from wandering into tearing Paul into pieces, an effect of my animal spirit’s awakening, I focused on doing a background on Logan Hickman, a.k.a. coach.Based on Mike’s words, he moved here eight years ago and has coached Salvatore Hills University’s football team since. His record was as clean as a freshly washed dinner plate. Not even a parking ticket, which was disturbing when I was sure that he’d been hurting Bobby that day physically. It only meant that he was good at hiding his tracks.Zwick’s death marked the stalking case closed, giving me no rea
