Damascus returned to his room just as Amara was waking up. The night sky was darkening just outside of the large window on the other side of the room.

Amara rolled over at the sound of the door and watched as Damascus walked in carrying some sort of tray with him. He placed the tray down on the small table near the chairs and made his way over to her on the bed. Amara decided that she could watch Damascus forever as he stalked his way around the room and the empty side of the bed.

The mattress dipped as he came to lean across it and brush a stray hair that had fallen over her eyes. She sat in silence as she felt the roughness of his finger and it glided along her temple. The action seemed so simple, but it did things to her heart.

Could it be that she as falling in love with the man? Damascus said that they were possibly mates. Did that mean that she had no control over the feeling? That life had already made the decision for her, and she was just falling into her place?

  • His Wingless Angel   Leslie

    Amara and Leslie got ready the following morning with their usual routine. As they made their way to the office. Amara noticed that the older woman who had talked to Leslie prior, was standing outside of their building. Amara pulled the car into her usual spot and Amara and Leslie both exited. Leslie noticed the woman as well and walked up to where she was standing on the sidewalk. "Good morning, can I help you?" Leslie asked. "Might I come in? I have a couple of questions for you," the woman said. Leslie nodded and headed over to the glass door to unlock it. Amara held her hand out to the older woman to go ahead and follow Leslie inside. Once inside, Leslie quickly put her stuff down and showed the woman to the small conference room. Amara turned to her own office to give them privacy. Amara did not want to hover in case there was something that Leslie didn’t feel comfortable saying around her. Leslie had said the woman was trying to help her find any family she might have and who

    not trust herself around him. He had texted her that morning and she claimed to have a lot of work to do so was unable to meet him for lunch. Amara kept her head buried in her computer for the better part of the day. Leslie had come in a few times to offer coffee and something to eat. Amara gave her a thankful smile and continued to work. Her mind had been on anything else but work and it was making it difficult to focus. It was three o'clock before she knew it and Leslie lightly tapped on her doorway once more. "Are we staying late tonight?" Leslie asked. Amara looked at the clock and sat back in her chair. For working all day she had not accomplished much. She was irritated at herself and nodded in answer to Leslie's question about leaving. The two women gathered their things and locked up for the evening. Leslie had been quiet as well, Amara noticed. She had not pressured Leslie after her meeting with the older woman. Leslie would tell her in her own due time. Amara and Leslie w

  • His Wingless Angel   Nightmare

    Damascus was quiet for a moment. Amara had admitted that the fact that she had read his thoughts had freaked her out. Damascus already knew that it would be a possibility since she had a werewolf for a mother, and they were mates. He wondered if there wasn’t something else there. She had admitted to being alone once more as well. Was that it? She was afraid that something like this would push Damascus to leave her? Not on her life. Damascus thought about the right words to help put her at ease, he was not the best when it came to reassuring someone, but in Amara's case he knew that it would be a make-or-break point for them if he messed it up. "Angel," Damascus let it out as a sigh. At the sound of his nickname for her, Amara immediately raised her eyes to his. Hope shined brightly, "It was something we discussed as a possibility when we were in my room. Don't you remember? I would not have started this road with you if the idea of you hearing my thoughts would easily put me off," A

    "And when is the wedding taking place?" Leslie said after Amara had confided in her about the previous evening. "I don't think weddings are their kind of thing?" Amara countered back. Both women chuckled as they continued to drink their morning coffee. Although Amara wasn’t sure if she was ready for anything like a wedding to take place if they did have that sort of thing among Dragons and Werewolves. "On another note, I was wondering if I might sit in at the meeting you have today with the King," Leslie said as she took a sip of her coffee. She tried to sound as if it was a normal question, even though her hand shook slightly at the idea. "Of course," Amara said without having to think about it. Leslie was always welcome to any meetings that were held in the office. Leslie normally chose to stay at her desk and get the run down from Amara later. Amara did wonder at the sudden desire to attend the meeting, but she wouldn’t press Leslie. Amara and Leslie made it to the office not s

  • His Wingless Angel   Intruder

    Amara watched from her office as King Eros left out of the conference room door. Amara had yet to see Leslie exit though. Amara walked to the conference room door and noticed that Leslie was still seated in the same chair. Amara leaned on the door frame and looked down at her employee as well as her friend. "Is everything alright?" Amara wanted to give Leslie her privacy, but she could see that there was something going on and the last thing she wanted was for Leslie to feel like she only had herself to rely on. "I am not sure. A lot of information has been thrown at me and I am not sure how to process it," Leslie said quietly as she regarded her hands that sat firmly planted in her lap. "Can I be of some help?" Amara pressed. Leslie looked up at her employer but only saw her friend who wanted to help. The fact broke Leslie and before she could stop herself, she began to cry and tell Amara everything that she had found out in the last week. Amara walked over and pulled one of the

  • His Wingless Angel   Not Even Close

    Just as promised within the hour there was a black SUV parked outside of Amara and Leslie's house. Amara did not recognize of the men who stood outside, but she had no doubt that Damascus trusted the men to bring Amara and Leslie safely to the castle doors. Amara and Leslie grabbed their bags and headed out the front door. One man grabbed Leslie's bag from her and another grabbed Amara's. Amara couldn’t help but feel that she had seen the man somewhere before but kept quiet as they all filed into the black SUV. The car ride was silent as the four made their way down the main streets of the Kingdom. Amara watched out the window as everyone else continued on with their daily lives. Some stopped and watched the SUV as it drove by but most of the others seemed unbothered by it. "I never got to thank you for helping our man that day on the road," the man in the passenger seat out of the blue. His voice startled Leslie. She must have had her mind elsewhere as well. "Excuse me?" Amara as

  • His Wingless Angel   Scared as Hell

    Leslie and Amara stood side by side in the large library. Damascus stood between the two women and the door to the library. There were several things that Gabriel could discuss in this meeting and Damascus wondered which route the King would travel down. Gabriel sat in the large leather chair that was placed behind his desk. He had a stack of papers in front of him which contained all the information that he had found on both newcomers into his Kingdom. Gabriel had only one weak moment where he had wondered if it had been better to leave the two women in their old office and never signed the contract that would move them into this new world. He of course had quickly corrected himself. He would rather Leslie and Amara be a part of his Kingdom where he could help protect them again the threats that both of them might endure due to their parents of different worlds. "Thank you for moving into the castle for the time being. I understand that we might have had a breach?" Gabriel asked D

    Much to Amara's disappointment, their meal did not take as much time as she had hoped. Too soon Amara found herself in the training room within the castle. "Are you sure we should be doing this inside?" Amara asked. The room was quite large for a workout area, but she did not want to chance something going wrong. "We may not even get to your first shift in the first session. But we do need to somehow awaken your wolf. The first would have been finding your mate and bonding. Have you felt anything new since then?" Damascus asked. "Like hearing your thoughts in my head?" Amara asked. That had been enough of a shock on it's own. "Kind of like that, but your wolf will have its own subconscious within your mind as well," Damascus tried to find the right words to explain to Amara. He was so far out of his element. With Dragons it was you and you alone, changing into the magnificent beast. There was no other inside your head. "So, I will be sharing my mind with someone else?" Amara once

    "Why would you help us take the throne back?" Henry asked. "It is your rightful place. Your child was stolen from you, my guess, in an attempt to do just that. Remove you both from the throne," Gabriel said. "Even if that were true, we have already relinquished the throne and a new King and Queen have taken over," Willa responded instead. "Do either of you know the condition of the Eternal Kingdom?" Gabriel asked. He assumed that they had been keeping tabs on the Kingdom, but then again, they were far enough outside of it that they might not. "It was made clear that we were no longer welcomed by my cousin and his wife," Henry answered."Cousin? Why did I not know that?" Gabriel asked himself more than Henry. "Distant cousin, but yes, Alexander Bardin is in fact a cousin of mine," Henry said. "But they have yet to produce an heir," Gabriel said. He was still unsure of how they were able to take possession of the throne and keep it for as long as they have without having a child o

  • His Wingless Angel   Reunion

    Leslie and Gabriel filed into a large SUV. There was already a driver and passenger in the vehicle which left the backseat for the two of them. Gabiel had told her that there was a good chance they had found her parents and wasted no time getting everything ready for them to leave. Leslie wondered why the King was going. It seemed like something that he could just send her and the team to go rather than risk him being away from the Kingdom for too long. "I feel really good about this," Gabriel said as he looked out the window. Leslie hadn’t realized that she was staring at him again. Leslie wondered if he had felt her eyes on him. "That makes one of us," Leslie said under her breath."Faith, Leslie. Faith," it was the first time she had heard her name on his lips, and it did something to her insides. They had spent a number of hours together the last few days and in that time she decided that she actually like the King. He was charming and funny. He always had a joke to spare. Lesl

  • His Wingless Angel   Sickness

    King Christian had allowed Amara and Damascus the day to themselves, but he requested a meeting the following day. He had some questions, and he wanted answers. Amara and Damascus stood in his office. Each chose to stay rather than be seated in the chairs across from his desk. "First off I wanted to start by saying congratulations to the mum to be," King Christian said to Amara. She smiled a tight smile and nodded her head once. She wondered if the King was going to toss them out of the Kingdom after finding out the truth. That was if he had found out the truth. "Second of all, there has been another attempt at a breach on our territory line. The wolves seem very persistent in their goal of getting to you Miss Amara," King Christian was turned in her direction. He had yet to acknowledge Damascus other than when they had first walked in. "So, I am giving you the same opportunity that I have given to your mate. I want to know why they are so desperate to get to you. There must be a r

  • His Wingless Angel   Royalty

    "What have you thought of our Kingdom so far?" Gabriel asked Leslie. "It is nice. All the people seem nice as well. Apart from their King picking out my lunch," Leslie said. She had more of a teasing tone so Gabriel knew that she wasn't actually upset about it. "He sounds like a real jerk if you ask me," Gabriel responded. Leslie chuckled. "Ill make sure to let him know," Leslie said. For some reason she found it easy enough to talk to him. Even though he was a King of a city full of Dragons. "Do you think Amara and Damascus made it to the UK alright?" Leslie asked. Gabriel wondered why Amara hadn’t checked in with Leslie yet. He didn’t think it was because of her news. "Damascus called me earlier. They made it safe and sound," Gabriel said, hoping it helped Leslie. She creased her brow that Damascus had reached out to Gabriel, but Amara had gone silent on Leslie. Was Amara mad at her for pushing her to go to the UK. Leslie hoped not. She itched to take out her phone and text her

    "How would they have known where we were going?" Amara asked anxiously. Damascus had just told her about the wolves at the territory line. "Unfortunately, flight plans cannot be encrypted," Damascus explained. It was the only way that he had been able to explain that the pack was able to narrow down on where he and Amara had been headed. He knew the pilot and stewardess wouldn’t have said anything, but flight planes were easier to get a hold of if one knew where to go. "So, we are in the same situation as home. Why did we leave again?" Amara asked, her sarcasm was a coping mechanism, and she tried not to let it slip but she was worried about them being so far from the Divine Kingdom. She wasn’t sure about King Christian and how far he would be willing to help protect them. "It is still distance from the entire pack. The Alpha probably reached out to a pack here in the UK to scout it out," Damascus at least hoped that was the case. He had half a mind to just set the Crescent Moon pa

    Damascus entered the room, but there was no sign of Amara. Damascus sense heightened and his heart rate picked up. He heard the shower running in the adjoining bathroom. He quickly walked over and tried the door. It was unlocked and he pushed through to check on Amara. Amara stood in the glass shower; she was washing her long blonde hair. She looked over her shoulder at Damascus but turned away and continued to message her scalp. Damascus stripped his clothes quickly and opened the glass door. His arms circled his waist and drew her closer to him. Even though Amara had been irritated when he left, some of her irritation had went down the drain along with the water. "Can you forgive me for my behavior tonight?" Damascus asked as he kissed her shoulder. "For which part exactly?" Amara asked not turning around. "All of it. From the way that I reacted like a jackass finding out you were pregnant and again after my nightmare," Damascus said. Yet again he had been so consumed by his ow

    Damascus spread his wings as he soared through the air. The breeze helped him to catch his breathing. He had felt trapped in the castle. He hated having to leave Amara, but he had not been able to regulate himself to keep her safe. The last thing he needed was to lose control and shift with her so close. Damascus flew through the air for a little while longer. As he descended to the ground once more, he noticed that a figure stood near his clothes where he had placed them on a bench near the back of the castle. Damascus landed but waited to shift back into his human form. The figure started walking towards him and when they finally came into the moonlight, he saw that it was the King himself. Damascus shifted and reached for his clothes. Once dressed he bowed towards the King. Damascus had not even considered the idea to ask before shifting. He was used to being able to do it as he pleased within his own Kingdom. "Apologies, your highness. I did not ask permission before taking to

  • His Wingless Angel   Innocent

    Damascus knew that he was dreaming but it did not make the situation any less real in his mind. Amara and what he assumed was their child in her arms were trapped behind bars. Damascus was tied to a chair in the center of a filthy room. His breathing was labored as the faceless men around him took turns beating on his battered face and body. "Damascus," Amara cried. Damascus looked at her through his one eye that had not been closed shut from his face swelling. She cradled the child to her chest as she watched the men work over his body. Just then one of the faceless men bent over and blocked Amara from his view. "I told you that you were worthless. You couldn't even protect your mate and child," the man said. The voice was haunting familiar. His father. Damascus growled at the man and tried to lung for him. The man stood back and laughed at Damascus's failed attempts. "I may have been an asshole, but I never hid who I was. You, on the other hand, have her completely fooled. That

  • His Wingless Angel   Regret

    "Did you know?" Amara asked Sona out loud. "I am just as surprised as you are," her wolf answered. Amara's eyes burned with unshed tears. Damascus was not happy that much was clear. She hadn’t meant for this to happen. Each time they had been intimate he had pulled out from her. She wasn't completely naive she knew what he was doing, and it wasn’t as though she had wanted a child either. The gravity of the situation began to fall heavy on her shoulders until the crushing weight had Amara on the floor. She curled in a ball and let the tears fall freely.********************************************************************************************************************"What the fuck am I supposed to do?" Damascus practically screamed over the phone. He had asked King Christian if there was a phone he could use and immediately called Gabriel. "You left her up in the room on her own after finding out?" Gabriel asked. He sounded less than thrilled at how Damascus had reacted. "I can't
