His Dark Obsession 50. Safe
EVANGELINE. I don’t know what happened but I’m alive; I had really thought I was going to die but Zedkiel saved me. However, his wrath was beyond terrifying. I had woken up to him standing there smelling of blood. His eyes burning red as the King, Chasyn, Alcazer and Ragnar tried to hold him back. I don’t know what he wanted to do, but he was in a rage. The healer steps back, looking down at me clearly scared for his life. “I want the entire place turned upside down until I find who did this.” Zedkiel now snarls, pulling free from his brother's hold and crossing his arm as he reaches down and grabs my hand, looking down at the bruises on my wrists that were caused by the ropes. I’m awake but my throat feels raw, and I have a bitter taste in my mouth. “We will Zedkiel. Now get some rest too. You’ve had a long day and you need to be up early tomorrow, the results will be announced then.” Alpha Ambrose says and Zedkiel scoffs. “That’s all you can think of?” “This tournament is still
His Dark Obsession 51. Seeing Red
ZEDKIEL. I don’t know what she wants from me. Blistering rage rushes through me and I clench my jaw, my eyes flashing. How dare she… I’m trying. Trying to show her that I’m on her side, but she can’t even share something so simple as what she’ll ask the Oracle. I have told her everything! We were meant to be in this together. I punch the wall, feeling the pain jar up my arm, but I’m far too angry to care. What more do I fucking need to do? I get that I’m not the ideal husband or Alpha… but I’ve tried, I’ve tried so fucking hard with her. I growl, making the guards who stand outside our door flinch. “A-alpha… if you are to leave, we must accompany you.” One of them says bravely. I almost sneer. Dad placed his most trusted and, in his eyes, his bravest and strongest guards here because I doubt anyone much wanted to even do this job. Being around me is something they’re all afraid of, and don’t trust… just like she doesn’t trust me. She might act like she does and for a short moment
His Dark Obsession 52. Reaching Him
EVANGELINE. “Listen to me!” I cry, gripping his upper arms as the water soaks us both. My chest grazes against his and I don’t miss the way his eyes, even full of anger rake over my breasts, making my stomach flutter. I know I have made him angry, and I don’t know how he found the phone, but I have to get through to him. He slams me against the wall, making me gasp as pain shoots through my back and neck. I squeeze my eyes shut, trying to clear the shampoo from them. “I’m done listening.” He snarls, and for a moment his forehead touches mine, his nose brushing against mine and our hearts are pounding as one. But the moment our eyes meet, he suddenly lets go of me and turns away. Is he going to go after Sinclair? Fear envelops me and before he can even step out of the shower, I wrap my arms around him from behind. It’s not about Sinclair, but what this could mean for us all. The tournament, and then Grandmother Philomena and Alpha Aeron, would be devastated too. “Please listen,” I
His Dark Obsession 53. Conflict
EVANGELINE.I cough when he lets go, and I look up at him.“Zedkiel!” I say, reaching for him, but it’s then I realise it’s not him… “You’re…”“Can you not tell the difference between us?” He says darkly, and I realise my mistake.He’s talking in that strange stiff manner like the words aren’t natural to him…Oh no… was I just talking to Zedkiel right now? “Y-your…”“I told you not to mention anything to Zedkiel… He heard what you said. He knows we talked. You are making things extremely hard for me now, Little Dark Mate.”“I didn’t mean to. Keeping secrets from Zedkiel is only causing problems. I need answers. You said he will kill me, you said that-”“I also said do not tell him.” He looks down at his hands as if examining them.“I didn’t, I was asking you-” I begin, but he casts me a warning glare. “I’m sorry for not being careful…” I end meekly.“There is no need for meaningless words. Time is running out, Little Dark Mate, and you are awakening… Soon the stars will align…”He’s ta
His Dark Obsession 54. The Right Question
EVANGELINE. Here we are, standing side by side like nothing happened last night. But that’s only what the outside world thinks because I can feel the walls that Zedkiel has put up around himself. My mate… The man I once dreamt about and waited for, the man I was hoping would find me, and claim me before reality opened my eyes. However, not once did I expect that man to be Alpha Prince Zedkiel Vilkas. Yet… isn’t that what he has done? He’s claimed me, protected me and made it clear I’m his… but then why are there so many conflicts and misunderstandings between us? I once thought the mate bond was beautiful. You find your own fairy tale story when your mate steps into your life and you live happily ever after, but it’s not… Glancing sideways, I peer up at the handsome man beside me. A man who oozes power and dominance. I never expected someone like him to be my mate… I always thought it would be someone of low rank, maybe a lesser guard at most. But Zedkiel… His eyes are hard and c
His Dark Obsession 55. Confident
ZEDKIEL. I don’t know what to expect from her anymore. I retreat to the back courtyard, leaning against the castle walls and staring out at the gardens trying to clear my head. I’m letting it get to me too fucking much, the way she makes me feel. Her every action is something I’m beginning to overthink, every word that leaves those plush lips of hers and I don’t like it. The pull I feel towards her is only growing stronger with every passing day. The sound of footsteps reaches my ear and I know who it is before I even turn. “So, what are you doing out here without your little wife?” Ragnar says, smirking as he leans against the wall next to me. “And why do you care?” I ask, not bothering to look at him. “I don’t, but after what happened, I would expect you to be joined to her by the hip and watching her ever so closely.” He crosses his arms, and I don’t reply. “What do you really want, Ragnar?” “Nothing… I’m just curious about your choice in women. Don’t get me wrong, she is a
His Dark Obsession 56. Alpha VS Alpha
EVANGELINE. The lights are like glittering blurred orbs that dance around the stadium that is prepared for the matches in the outdoor training grounds of the Castle. Where once stood an open ground, now contained stands that can seat many, and the stands are full. In the centre is a square ring, where the matches will take place. They have emblazoned the symbols of each pack on banners that hang around the stands and on streamers that cross over the stands. With the most prominent banner being that of the Royal family’s Pack. I watch through my own eyes, but it doesn’t feel normal, and I know why it’s like this. I’m not in charge. It’s like I’m locked away behind a window. My heart still hurts from what happened earlier. Zed’s words after he allowed whatever that voice in my head was, to pleasure him, keeps replaying in my mind. Don’t think about it, Evangeline.” I whisper, feeling my eyes sting with tears again. ‘Oh, stop wallowing. I’m doing you a favour Evangeline, you saw how Z
His Dark Obsession 57. Acting Fast
EVANGELINE. He clenches his fist, squaring his shoulder as he looks around before he heads out towards the exit. Ignoring the crowds, I quickly climb down from the stands and hurry after him. “Zed!” I call as I run to keep up with him, trying my best not to bump into anyone. Is he alright? ‘You’re pathetic.’ Her voice comes in my head, but I refuse to listen to her. I catch up to him, but he’s walking away without even so much of a glance towards me. “Alpha Zedkiel, will you not stay for the next two rounds?” Someone asks, but he ignores them as well. “Zedkiel…” I whisper in concern when I finally catch up to him. He’s frowning as he stares ahead, but I can see the beads of sweat on his forehead. I’m uncertain if it’s from the match or from the pain that I’m certain he’s in. We reach the doors to the castle, and he strides inside and towards our temporary quarters. I don’t call him again, knowing that he isn’t going to reply, but I can smell the blood now. Once we’re inside

His Dark Obsession Epilogue
EVANGELINE. ONE YEAR LATER… “Oh my…”I say, unable to stop myself from biting my lip as I look over at my sexy naked man who has tossed aside the towel he has just dried his body with and now approaches the bed entirely naked. “If I wasn’t already pregnant, I might just end up pregnant tonight.” He sits down on the bed, a cocky smirk on his face. “I wouldn’t mind practising the art.” He says, as he pulls me on top of him. I’m halfway through my pregnancy and we’ve been told we’re having a boy. Learning about the pregnancy was bittersweet. I was happy, yet it brought back the memory of the child that was taken from us. A child I had not been able to see when I had gone to the realm, despite the ability to cross once a year, I was confined to the Palace of Moonlight. I nurture the tree of bonds before I then must return to earth. Raziel and Selene are trying to get Eshe to bring my child to the palace, but there has been no reply to any of their messages. “I wouldn’t mind that,” I
His Dark Obsession 74. How Time Has Changed
EVANGELINE. A FEW WEEKS LATER... “Thank you, your majesty.” Someone says as I steady them from tripping over their own feet. We’ve officially hosted the coronation ball for both the Vampire King and his Queen and the Alpha Queen and her Alpha King. A combined coronation and one that showed the beginning of unity between the two species. The night had gone well, and both sides had been cordial enough. It had taken place at the Moon Stone Pack, but we have begun building a castle, halfway between both territories which will be used for state affairs. Now, I think I’m ready to turn in for the night. I have talked to many and danced the night away. I gather up the white net skirt to my glittering dress as I step out into the warm night. “Alpha Queen Evangeline.” I turn to see Sinclair leaning against a pillar, alone. He’s dressed in a tux, hands in his pocket as he approaches me. “Alpha Sinclair.” I say formally. I noticed there was no sight of Celia tonight. I guess she wouldn’t w
His Dark Obsession 73. Nothing Will Stop Me
ZEDKIEL. A week has passed since the trials and Kash and Ziahra have left. Apparently, they are going to take things easy but as far as I can tell, they are constantly making out. So irritating and disgusting to see. Jason had told Kash he is in no rush to stand down and I think that is something Kash appreciated. Although Ziahra had made it clear, she did not want him to follow her when she left, he told her he’ll accompany her and only be staying a day or so before he returns home. They may act like they have this love and hate thing going on, but I have seen she has marked him back, which says enough. I still need time to get used to the two of them being together. I know he’s trying to find Isa, but I told him he may just lead Godric to her if he tries to find her. You've got to think smart and play smarter. Last night Evangeline told me that Evelyn is leaving today, she has avoided me a lot since she has returned with her own body. It's a shame, considering I feel that we ha
His Dark Obsession 72. Wait For Me
ZIAHRA. I’ve been here for long enough, Mom’s ashes have been laid to rest and the trials are done. Zedkiel has a lot to do, but Evangeline needs him, so I offered to go and handle the things that can be done on his behalf. We own several lands between the vampire territory and the Moon Stone Pack, and a new home will be built where Zedkiel can handle official business, but ultimately until it’s done he will have to travel back and forth for a while. I don’t want to go… but I have to. Mom was killed by Zed’s Lycan, and although Evangeline had apologised for it, I don’t blame her, this wasn’t her fault, however, I need some time to mourn. I’m ready to take some time to accept her death. I had fought so hard for the last few years to save her, and then… in the end, she died. Just like that… It only takes moments for death to take us… no matter the length of our life span, our loved ones can still be taken in a matter of minutes. No one is invincible. But leaving meant… Kash… The
His Dark Obsession 71. There's Still Hope
CHASYN. Night has fallen and I’m sitting on the balcony in one of the guest rooms. I have been residing here ever since everything that happened recently, unable to go to the quarters where I had spent time with Maryka. When I found her and realised she was my mate, I had been tempted to reject her, because of her link to the Night Shade pack as well, although I had no qualm with it, after all, mother was from there, but in truth, I did not want to give up on another… someone I had fallen deeply in love with. But it was never an option I was allowed to even consider. Fated mates were rare and to find mine and consider rejecting them would have been frowned upon and so I had taken her as my own, made her my Luna, marked her, and married her. But I know she didn’t like my Omegas, and I couldn’t blame her. Any man or woman would feel jealousy if their mates were with other people. Although by then, there had only been one I was addicted to but I had stopped being intimate with her to
His Dark Obsession 70. The Final Trials
ZEDKIEL. The day of the final few trials has arrived and those with the heaviest crimes will stand to hear their judgement today. The last few days have weighed heavily on Evangeline. It has taken longer as more people than we initially assumed had ended up playing a part in the crimes committed against the Pack and Kingdom. Some were stripped of rank, others exiled, and some were imprisoned. However, today Danciana, Maryka, Draven, Drystan, and a few of the council members will have their crimes publicly stated, and given the correct punishments that they deserve. Maryka… She had been the one to kill our father. Ragnar had been ready to kill her himself but had to be restrained. It had shaken Chasyn to the core. Yes, it had been glaringly obvious that she did play a huge part but the extent of her part in all of this was huge. She had been planning it with the traitors of the Night Shade Pack for months, and when she had figured out Jeremiah’s plan after Chasyn had refused to fi
His Dark Obsession 69. One Last Visit
EVANGELINE. Zedkiel is at the king’s grave, and I have decided to go visit Lucia who is still in hospital. Although she is much better, due to how badly she had been injured, the doctors want to keep an extra eye on the baby’s health and with it being common knowledge that it’s Chasyn’s the risk to her health is greater. I was paid respect by everyone I pass; I have easily become recognised as the Queen, but rumour has also travelled that I am a goddess. I do not feel like one when I can’t even save my own child. Every night, I pray and plead for our child to be returned to us, but there is never an answer and I know I will not get one either. I slow down as I reach Lucia’s room. She’s been moved into a private room by herself, and I now knock on the door and enter after she gives me permission. “Hey…” I say softly as I enter, slowly closing the door behind myself and walk over to the bed. “Hello, Evangeline.” She says smiling, she looks better today. Her bruises are all healed,
His Dark Obsession 68. Regrets
ZEDKIEL. A cool wind blows past me as I stare down at the tomb before me with a heavy heart. The funeral was yesterday for all those who passed and for our king… I stare at the engravings on the tombstone. ‘HERE LIES THE BODY OF A JUST KING, A LOVING FATHER, AND A RESPECTED ALLY. SUPREME ALPHA AMBROSE VILKAS’ Father… Four days have passed since our return and there is a lot to do and a lot that we have already done, but we all needed time to mourn those we have lost. We have suffered, and we have all lost someone that we loved. They will not be easily forgotten. I crouch down before the tombstone and look at the flowers that adorn the ground around the grave. Father… I wish I could have told you this when you were alive, but… I want you to know that I appreciated everything you did for me. For the trust, you kept in me. Thank you for treating me as a person and not as a monster… I love you, Father… I close my eyes as I allow my sorrow to wash through me. I lower my head, Maryk
