Her voice was tired and her eyes hurt, but April couldn't bring herself to turn away her youngest fans, begging for their autographs. Truth be told sometimes it was the only thing that kept her singing. Gods when did her life get so boring? She had sell-out tours for the next three years, and a more than healthy bank account, but what did it matter when there was no one waiting for her at home? Signing the last piece of paper thrust into her hands, April finally made it backstage and out of the public eyes.

" Another stunning performance." Kevin drawled, packing up his equipment into the band's road wagon. If it wasn't for the bags under his eyes and the tightness in his features, April would have thought everything was okay, but because she knew the details, she could see beyond the smoke and mirrors. "How is Celine?" She whispered, briefly touching his arm in an attempt to offer comfort. The fact that Kevin pulled away, creating distance hurt her but she u

  • In his arms   A moment in time

    April enjoyed moments likethese, where she could wander through the A-lister club, mixing with other celebrities, and supernaturals in a special area closed off from the human public. Venom was a place to unwind and forget about life for a while. She fleetingly felt a stab of guilt for ditching the girls but dammit, she needed this, and she was sick of fighting herself.The atmosphere was sultry, the smell of sex dominating the air as April watched the beautiful bodies grinding against each other, lost in the music, drunk off the promises whispered in each other's ears as they danced in the rapture of lust.

    Adrastus made short work of April's dress, tearing it from her body before it was pitched straight into the fire.She should have been afraid but instead, it seemed to arouse April more. She could feel his warm strength, hands worshipping her body as she stood dressed only in her lacy black g string and high heels."Take it off.." He whispered huskily, down on hisknees before her, and April knew what he wanted because she wanted it too.

    The ride back to the Midnight pack was a tense one.Todd stayed as close as he could to the still figure on thestretcher, watching as Neville, the packs top physician cleaned, and stitched Aprils wounds, covering the multiple sites in gauze before he went on to his next task. An hour into their journey her heart had stopped, sending the doctor into afrenzy of instrument wielding madness as Neville became a one-man operating team, forcing her heart to start again, inserting tubes, draining fluid,monitoring vitals and cataloguing injuries in order of seriousness. In the end, Todd had a whole new level of respect for the man.Aprils injuries were numerous, every bone was broken, organs ruptured ski

    In the distance, made clear by dragon sight, Adrastus zeroed in on the black SUV speeding down the dirt road.'April I'm coming, hold on!'He thought to himself as he banked left into the wind current that would hurtle his massive body as fast as an arrow towards those who sought to take his mate from him. By the time Adrastus had left April's building, the sun had set and he was weary beyond compare. His heart felt empty and for the first time in his long life, the dragon couldn't bear the solitude. He had to find April, dead or alive. There was simply no other choice. So he set off, in the most logical direction they would take to get to the Midnight pack. An hour later, they were in his sight and the smell of April's blood drove Adrastus to push his body even harder to reach them. She was hurt, and someone in that vehicle would pay dearly for it..."Alpha Zade, you are not going to believe this, but a fucking huge dragon is chasing us! Wh

  • In his arms   Shattered

    "Alpha in the hall!" The young woman announced in a panic as Zade strode past, ignoring the half-naked females scrambling to get to their rooms. He had an army to assemble, and a mate to retrieve. Even unconscious April still seemed to thwart him, and what the hell was that beast doing, kidnapping her like that? Surely the dragon didn't think April was still his mate? The door to his study was open, and he spared a quick glance at the adjoining room next to it, hopefully, Todd had managed to make it out alive. He was a casualty of the unprovoked attack, unfortunately. But Zade felt sure that if he was still alive he would be protecting April and making sure they survived until the pack warriors could come and rescue them.As he sat down in his chair, Zade belatedly noticed the lack of paperwork on his desk, come to think of it he hadn't been overwhelmed by it for a couple of weeks now. That was odd but very welcomed. Perhaps they had had a lull in the day to day outg

    The days blurred in the young dragon's mind. No one spoke to him for fear of Loki's wrath, and Adrastus kept his head down to avoid confrontation. Cindelle hurried away whenever they were in the same vicinity, and although he knew why it still broke Adrastus's young heart. This day was like any other. Adrastus trained hard. He studied, ate, and performed his duties. The only saving grace was the swim at the end of it. He wandered down the familiar path to where the waterfalls of Asgaard were, only this time when he reached his destination Adrastus was not alone.Staring into the crystal, clear waters was the Oracle-Cindele's grandmother."Come closer, child, I don't have much time," The old woman beckoned, and Adrastus obeyed. She had her feet in the water, and her milky eyes shone with a strange light, yet when she grasped onto his hand Adrastus wasn't afraid, "I have had a vision, and you need to see it, close your eyes and open your heart and mind." Again Adrastus d

    The storm boy.Alexander Storm looked down on his newborn son, marveling at the miracle of birth while his mate Ruby took a well-deserved shower. Marcus was a small boy by dragon standards, but Alex didn’t mind. Being from a minor hoard meant Marcus could never ascend to the royal throne. Alex and Ruby didn’t even have titles, so size wasn’t an indication of power within their community anyway. To outside appearances, they were just another wealthy family living in a gated community by the sea. His only son would be doted on b

    "My birthday?"Down Adrastus plummeted, a vision of jagged rocks tormenting his mind as he struggled to comprehend why his cousins would do this. Why did they want him dead? It was a keen sense of betrayal that curled its way through his body as his closest friends watched from above, and liquid fire ran so hotly through his veins it itched. Suddenly his skin felt too tight on his body, and Adrastus wondered if everyone's last moments were like these.

    "Frederico, the kingdom has fallen. We haven't much time!" Lady Lisbeth Delgaard rushed to where the babies lay, sleeping in their crib. Knowing she wasted precious moments-nevertheless, the Dragonlady gazed upon her children. The twins looked so different, yet she loved them equally as fierce. Ragnar took after her with his fiery temper and the telltale bulk that spoke of his dragon heritage. Whereas Gio was smaller, with dark eyes that changed color according to his mood, and there was no doubt that he held his father's wolf genes. Mixed species couples were killed on sight in Desdayos, and as the war reached the inner sanctum, a difficult decision needed to be made.The sound of the door being rammed downstairs caused Lisbeth to grab Ragnar and Gio, holding onto them protectively as Frederico burst into the nursery, "The guards are here, my love. There is no more time." Lisbeth handed Gio over with a gentle kiss, and her eyes filled with tears as she looked at the ma
