Lucian's eyes bulged in shock at the unexpected twist of events. His mate was a witch. He didn't know how to react. It was as though his world had shattered into pieces. It made it worse knowing Alexa's mother might be the witch he was searching for. The witch who had cursed him at birth. "Lucian?," Alexa muttered his name tugging him adorably across the arm. She sensed the tension and uneasiness that suffocated the air around her. "Is your mother in town?," Lucian asked earning a furrowed brow from Alexa. Why did he seem interested in her mother all of a sudden?"No, she died a few years back," She lowered her gaze as a wave of sadness washed over her. "Fuck!" Lucian cursed, way to spoil the mood he thought, "I'm sorry for your loss," He told sincerely cupping her cheeks. It seemed gus assumptions were wrong. Alexa's mother although a witch wasn't the witch he searched for. Judging the lycan hunter Mason Salvador's words, he was certain the witch was still alive.He let out a sigh
As she walked into the doorstep, her eyes immediately locked onto him. He stood by the entrance, tall and lean, with jet-black hair and piercing blue eyes that seemed to catch the light and reflect it in a thousand different shades. "My God!" Skylar couldn't help but feel her heart skip a beat as she took in his handsome features. He was more deliciously looking than Alexa had described. Honestly, word couldn't even describe the perfection of the specimen before her.She had seen attractive men before, but there was something about him that made her go weak in the knees. It was like he had an aura of unearthly beauty that drew her in and left her feeling breathless.She tried to avert her gaze, not wanting to be caught staring, but she couldn't tear her eyes away. "What can I help you with beautiful?," Lucifer noticed gaze drooling gaze on him, and he bit his lips with a small, knowing smile. He trailed his sight to her chest and instinctively licked his lips. He would make a good f
Warning this chapter contains strong sexual scenes, readers discretion is strongly advisedLeading Alexa back into his room, Lucian maintained a calm facade, but she could sense that he was battling a tumult of emotions."Lucian?" She called out softly, perplexed by his unexpected change in demeanor. Was he jealous? It was a side of him she had never seen before. He had always personified the words "cool, calm, and collected," yet now he seemed visibly disturbed and troubled by Lucifer's advances."I love you, Alexa," He paused, "Watching someone else vying for your affection is...difficult,""Lucifer doesn't love me and vice versa, he's just being a flirt," She clasped her hands with his, "I'm sorry you have such an asshole for a brother,"Lucian chuckled, "I'm sorry too," Without a word, Lucian gently cupped her face in his hands, the touch of his fingers sending tingles down her spine. Leaning in, he pressed his lips to hers, a soft and tender kiss that spoke volumes without a sing
Hours LaterAlexa slowly stirred from her sleep, feeling disoriented for a moment. As she blinks her eyes open, she is met with the warm, dusky glow of the setting sun filtering through the bedroom window. The room was bathed in a soft, golden light, casting long shadows across the floor.She stretched her arms above her head and let out a contented sigh, feeling the day's fatigue leaving her body. The world outside is painted in shades of orange and pink as the sun begins its descent below the horizon. The peaceful silence of the evening fills the room, broken only by the distant sound of birds chirping and the gentle rustling of leaves in the breeze.She sat up, feeling a sense of tranquility wash over her. The setting sun's rays cast a warm glow on her face, offering a quiet moment of reflection and gratitude. Taking a moment to breathe in the serenity, she feels a rush of peaceful energy within her."Lucian?," She called out with no response. She could tell she was in the upper p
Alexa raced through the dense forest, the thudding of her feet against the underbrush echoing in the darkness. Her heart pounded in her chest, and fear propelled her forward, driving her to push her body beyond its normal limits. She could hear the heavy footfalls of the pursuing black lycan that was hot on her heels. Its growls and snarls were unnervingly close, spurring terror through her veins.She couldn't understand or comprehend what had happened, one minute Lucian was a beautiful man with golden locks and golden irises, and the next he was a black-furred wolflike beast. It seemed Tommy and Sheriff Byod were right. The Klaus brothers were involved with the murders.The murders weren't done by humans or wild wolfs as they suggested, but in fact whatever the fuck Lucian had transformed too. She felt her heart break and shatter into a billion pieces, the man she loved was a monster.Waves of panic washed over Alexa as she desperately tried to put distance between herself and the r
Alexa sat on the chair, the blanket wrapped tightly around her, her body shivering in fright. Her eyes were wide with fear as the memories of the attack of Lucian plagued her thoughts. She pulled the blanket closer, trying to find comfort in its warmth.Just then, a man walked in, his black hair and blue eyes glistening like jewels holding a steaming cup of coffee. He approached her, his eyes filled with concern as he saw her trembling figure. It was a relief she had agreed to come back home with him. Without a word, he held out the cup of coffee to her. "Here, this might help," he said gently.Alexa took the cup, her hands still shaking. She took a sip, feeling the warmth of the coffee spreading through her, chasing away the cold fear that had gripped her. Lucifer sat down beside her, offering her a reassuring smile as she took another sip of the comforting drink."Where is he? Lucian?" She managed to speak unable to meet his gaze "Locked In a prison underground, he should be back
She levitated effortlessly above the ground, her voice carrying across the tumultuous air, as she sang a hauntingly beautiful war song.Her melodious voice resonated through the hearts of the Witches, lifting their spirits and infusing them with power and magic."SHIFT!" The king commanded and on cue, his soldiers shifted screaming through the pain of breaking and amending bones into wolflike creatures unknown to the witches."What....what the hell are those fucking creatures," A witch yelled in shock"My divine what is this? I can't tell if they are men or wolves," Another told the Angel through a mind link"Fear not my subjects, for I am with you," She echoed her rhythmic voice into the battlefield.As the King let out a rallying cry that echoed through the valley, the ground shook beneath the charging hooves of his Lycans, the sound of the approaching army thundering like a tempest on the horizon.As the King let out a rallying cry that echoed through the valley, the ground shook b
"My father sold his soul to the devil for power and vengeance for the death of his wife and unborn son Dante, killed by the witches," Lucifer said with a bitter smile, "But a few decades later, Dante would return to the kingdom all grown up,""But you just said he was killed by the witches before he was born," Alexa said with a look of intrigue. The doubt crept into her expression as she considered whether she would believe his story, had she not already witnessed Lucian shift into a towering eight-foot, wolf-like humanoid beast."He was, but for some unexplainable reason, he returned from hell and started killing and hunting down every Lycan," Lucifer paused, "My father was eventually defeated and sealed by Dante and buried in the deepest parts of the ocean, but thousands of years later, he was released by a powerful witch who fell in love with him and bore him two children, Lucian and I," "Their love enraged the most powerful of witches, who loathed their union, particularly the m
One year LaterThe man stood outside the beautiful home, his golden lock glinting in the warm morning sun. It cast a soft, golden glow on his skin, illuminating every freckle and line on his beautiful face. The gentle rays felt like a caress, warming him from the inside out and filling him with a sense of peace.As he closed his eyes and tilted his head back, he could feel the sun's warmth penetrating his skin, melting away any remaining traces of sleepiness. The light danced playfully on his eyelids, creating a kaleidoscope of colors behind closed eyes. He could hear the rustle of leaves and the distant sound of a breeze, adding to the serene atmosphere that surrounded him.The air was cool and crisp, tinged with the scent of freshly cut grass and blooming flowers. He took a deep breath, filling his lungs with the sweet fragrance of the morning. Each inhale felt like a sip of pure, invigorating energy, rejuvenating his spirit and filling him with a renewed sense of purpose.He slowl
With each labored breath, Lucifer struggled to maintain his composure as he shifted back to his human form. The pain of the transformation was excruciating, but it was nothing compared to the agony he felt when he opened his eyes to see Dante standing over him with a cold, dead stare."Ah! Fuck, you're still alive?," Lucifer chuckled Dante's empty eyes held no trace of the blood bond they shared, only the determination to end Lucifer's life. Without hesitation, Dante drove a sharp, long stake into Lucifer's gut, causing him to gasp in pain and shut his eyes to try to numb the sensation.As the reality of the situation set in, Lucifer's gaze shifted towards a high hill in the distance. It suddenly struck him that he and Dante had crashed in the heat of battle, their ideals torn apart by the conflict and hatred that had consumed them both."Funny, a devil like yourself finding love," Dante scoffed pulling a shotgun from his pocket and pointing it at Lucifer's head. About to pull the t
"Alexa, get behind me," Lucifer pleaded, shoving her aside with urgency. Startled, Alexa gazed at the mysterious stranger with a perplexed expression. Who was he? Was he one of the hunters she had been warned about? As she studied his features, she couldn't help but notice the striking resemblance he shared with Lucifer. It was almost like they could be siblings. Suddenly, a realization struck her, and her eyes widened in shock; could he be Dante? She remembered Lucifer mentioning a brother who haunted their kind. The pieces were starting to fall into place, and Alexa couldn't shake the feeling of unease settling in the pit of her stomach."Get away from her Lucifer," Dante ordered pointing a shotgun at Lucifer"Why can't you just stay dead Danny?," He taunted while Dante watched his every move. He couldn't risk firing the shot and hitting the girl beside him."Lucifer is that Dante?" She tugged his sleeve. Lucifer turned his gaze to Alexa"He is," Lucifer said with a subtle smile,
Alexa's heart was pounding as she struggled to make sense of her situation. She tried to remember the events that led up to this moment, but her memories were hazy. The last thing she remembered was Lucian writhing in pain from Lucifer's stab wounds and Lucifer's confessions. What came after was a blur."Ouch!" The sharp ache at the back of her head intensified, and she winced as she reached up to touch the area. Panic rose like a tide within her, threatening to overwhelm her senses. She had to think fast and stay calm. The pop music blaring through the stereo provided an incongruous backdrop to her fears, and she shot a sidelong glance at the driver. He was handsome, with dark hair and a clean-shaven jaw, but his steely eyes held a coldness that sent shivers down her spine. She recognized him immediately. It was Lucifer. Where the hell was he taking her? She turned her gaze outside, it seemed they had left town.She desperately tried to find a way to escape the confines of the car
Her heart raced with joy as she eagerly watched Lucian take off his mask and gloves, with Lucifer standing next to him. Without hesitation, she launched herself at Lucian, who caught her in his arms and twirled her around like a princess, his heart swelling with elation at her bold gesture. "Missed me?," He teased. The rush of adrenaline and excitement enveloped them both as they were lost in the moment."You're lucky you kept your promise," she teased, smirking up at him. "I'd have followed you to hell and killed you a second time,""Hmm, that would be... hot," Lucian replied with a devilish grin, his eyes sparkling with mischief. "Both figuratively and literally, sunshine." His playful tone made her heart flutter even more. His alluring gaze captivated her, and she felt like she belonged in his arms, the heat of their immediate connection filling the air. She savored this moment, feeling an overwhelming sense of ecstasy and contentment flooding her senses."I'm doing fine thanks
Dante's voice boomed through the air as he commanded, "Drop your weapons and back away from Raven slowly,'" His words were accompanied by a telegraphed movement that indicated he was tightening his grip around Lucifer's neck. Lucian didn't hesitate to follow Dante's instructions. He took slow steps back, keeping his gaze fixed on Dante, fully aware of the danger that lurked within those piercing eyes. Meanwhile, Dante effortlessly tossed Lucifer over the nearby wall. Without warning, Dante's movements became a blur as he darted forward with lightning speed, seizing Lucian by the throat and forcefully slamming him to the ground. It was a swift and powerful move that left Lucian gasping for breath as he struggled to comprehend Dante's impossible speed.Elongating his claws, he was about to strike Lucian's heart, when the golden-haired man opened his mouth and spit liquid wolfsbane into Dante's eye making him groan in pain and momentarily go blind. Seizing the moment Lucian pulled a g
Warning this chapter contains high level of violence, readers discretion is strongly advised Lucian barged into the house, his senses were heightened, his heart pounding in his chest knowing he needed to act fast. He moved quickly, his eyes scanning the room for any sign of movement. The Lycan Hunters, caught off guard by the sudden intrusion, scrambled to take cover, trying to regain control of the situation."Lucian is here!" One of the hunters screamed to alert the others. They quickly grabbed their weapon, knives, guns, and spears to attack Lucian.Amidst the chaos, Lucian kept his cool, his training kicking in as he fired off rounds with lethal precision. The Hunters, though well-armed and trained, were no match for his skill. He ducked and weaved through the hail of bullets fired by the hunters, his expression unwavering as he took out a few of the soldiers with well-aimed shots.The room was filled with the deafening sound of gunfire and shouts as the intense battle raged on
Warning this chapter contains vivid and graphic description of torture, readers discretion is advised"Lucian?" She awoke to a pounding headache and gazed at the unfamiliar surroundings. Where was she? It appeared to be a small cabin. Turning to her side, she spotted the beautiful golden-haired lycan shifter rummaging through a drawer, pulling out an assortment of weapons, guns, explosives, knives, and some that she couldn't even identify. What the hell was happening? And how had she ended up here in the first place?"Lucian?," He trailed his sights to Alexa and briskly moved over next to her, clasping her hands with his and placing a tender kiss on her arm."What's happening?, how did I get here?""I moved you while you were asleep. There wasn't enough time to tell you everything," Lucian said, gazing into her hazel-green eyes. He felt an undeniable pull towards her, getting lost in the sparkle and dazzle of her gaze. As much as he longed to run away with Alexa, he knew he couldn't
"Alexa!" Tommy exclaimed as he burst into the house, the gun clutched tightly in his hand. His eyes darted frantically around the room, desperately searching for any clue that she had been there. His heart pounded in his chest, fear gnawing at him as he imagined the terrible things that could have befallen her. He couldn't bear the thought of her in danger, and he vowed to do whatever it took to find her and keep her safe."Alexa!" He called out again, this time louder than before."Alexa!"Raven, with a subtle nod of her head, silently communicated her orders to the hunter nearby. Without a moment's hesitation, the hunter swiftly pulled out a gleaming knife from his belt and delivered a precise, forceful blow to the back of the deputy sheriff's head, causing him to slump unconscious onto the nearby couch."Oh relax Dante, we both know we can't reveal our secrets to him," She chuckled noticing Dante's disapproving look."Lucian isn't here," Dante said ignoring her words, "His scent
