Today was a long day filled with such extreme highs and lows. How did I go from waking naked in Bolton’s arms to wanting to rip his throat out. The way he acted at dinner was unexplainable. He was all over the place and made no sense.I laid in bed a long while, tears slipped my eyes every so often and I just let it all wash over me. I was so lost and confused. Tomorrow we had to be on fairy land and kill a King of Vampires. It all felt too surreal. I was just barreling through life and maybe Bolton was right, I was going to get myself killed.I can’t imagine not being with my children, watching them grow into the amazing people I know they will be. I just wanted them to have a better life than I had. I wanted them to be able to chose who they wanted to be and live in a world that wasn’t constantly battling each other for power.After too much time of thinking of everything wrong in the world I finally fell asleep. I tossed a lot, dreaming of war and death. Bolton was always at my sid
I woke with a smile and wiggled my body against this massive man smothering me under him.“Stop doing that.” He smacked my ass and I yelped at the sting.“Oo, that is not the way to get me to stop doing anything. Spank me again, daddy.” I teased, pulling my body from under his.“You have unlimited energy.” He grumbled.“Come on old man. Time to get up! Angelica is already awake and looking at you very curiously.”He shot his head up and my daughter giggled at him from her crib. He quickly pulled the sheet over his chest. “They need separate rooms. That is the freakiest way to wake up.” “Oh shut up and put some pants on. You know she wants you.” I said, pulling a black shirt over my head. I went to the crib and picked up my Angel. “Good morning sweet girl. Do you want kisses from your mate?” She giggled as I nuzzled her neck and she reached her hands out to Bolton.He had put his pants on and grabbed her from my arms. “Don’t listen to your mom. She is the pervert.”“Mm hmm.” I hummed a
“What idea? You will stay with your mother at the mobile medic? You know what... I love that idea. Agreed!” He patted my back and went to walk off.“Get over here, idiot.” I crossed my arms and let out a breath. He looked back to me with squinted eyes. He called me an idiot all the time. “It’s not a good idea to tell the whole army our plans. We don’t even know who is truly faithful either. What if they turn on us in battle, or warn Eldora, or spill our secrets while under her compulsion?”“I won’t say everything. Now listen.” I rattled off my plan to him and he only grew more and more angry with me. Blake was practically glued to my side so he heard it all too.“It could work.” Blake said, rubbing his chin deep in thought.“It could also leave you weak and vulnerable. It’s too risky.” Bolton added.“I’ll do a trial run before we leave.”“I just said no!” Bolton barked out.“I don’t know why you keep thinking I actually listen to you.” I smiled at him.“Why are you even telling me th
“You idiot!” My words came out like venom through gritted teeth. I wasn’t sure if they were for Eldora or me though.“I haven’t betrayed you, but I can’t let Bolton live.” She flew from her seat and remained in the air, flapping her wings at the border of her garden. She watched the battle ensue around us with indifference. “I didn’t warn Marcus of your troops, only that Bolton would be here and that I wanted him dead. I would only agree to marry him tonight if he honored his future wife by avenging her.”I searched the grounds around me looking for Marcus. I didn’t know what he looked like, but I assumed he would somehow stand out from his army like Bolton did. Blake had already shifted, tearing vampires limp from limp. Bolton was in full Vampire mode, ripping one head off then another. “Mom, are you ok?” I reached out to her praying she could hear me.“It’s quiet here.”“Not for long. Eldora tricked me and is after Bolton.” I reached out to Draconian and order our second wave to a
“No! He won’t hurt me!” I screamed at Blake as he tried running from the very pissed off Vampire. “We need Eldora!”“He is in a blood lust Sasha.” Blake yelled at me as I kicked and screamed in his arms. I admit, I don’t really know what a blood lust does to him, but I believed in Bolton.“That’s because you’re an idiot.” Bolton’s voice rang in my head, then suddenly I was in his arms and Blake was twenty feet from us. “Don’t!” My eyes teared as he stared at my neck, licking his lips and humming in pleasure. “I take what I want and I want you.” His head dipped to my neck, teeth scrapping my skin. My body lit on fire, wanting him to sink his teeth into me. I couldn’t let him though, I promised him I wouldn’t let him.“Please, don’t.” I said again. Goddess, I really want him though. “You say no, but beg for me in your head.” His teeth slowly pierced my skin, venom flooding my body and relaxing every muscle. I felt an instant high and fiend for more. His big lips closed around his tee
“You’re ok, I’m right here.” Blake’s voice was soothing as his finger gently caressed my face, swiping my hair to the side and tangling his fingers in it. He always loved my hair. I hummed, stretching some in my sleep. My body was tired, but relaxed. I think I healed myself as I slept, which then exhausted me more. My eyes opened to those gorgeous green irises staring at me. He could stop my heart with one look, and I hated it. “I’m fine.” I spit out pushing at his chest.“I know. Do you want anything to drink?” He grabbed a cup of water from my bedside.“Why are you here? Where is Bolton?” “Bolton?” Blake looked at me with all suspicion in his eyes.“Yes, Bolton! Where is my general and where is our pack?”“It’s getting hard to believe there is nothing between the two of you. He seems to be the only one you want.” Blake’s face was hardening into that smog asshole I knew him to be.“It’s none of your business, and if we were together you would have nothing to say about it. Don’t y
I walked in his dark room and took a deep breath, filling my body with his masculine scent of strength and mayhem. Hours I had walked around, talking and thinking, when I just need him. I was beginning to worry if he was even ok. It was Bolton though. He is a Vampire Siren, he has to be ok. “You shouldn’t be here.” His deep voice fanned across my neck, sending shivers straight down my spine.“I needed to talk to you.” My head leaned to the side, allowing his nose to slowly work his way up my neck. “Is that all you needed from me?” He asked, sliding a hand from my waist to my stomach, up my chest and over my breast.“No!” I barely made out the word as his large hand wrapped around my neck. I could feel his anger mixed with lust and it had me swooning instantly. For whatever reason, I loved how he filled with frustration and rage when touching my body. He wanted me, and he tried so hard not to show how badly he needed me.Bolton stood behind me, his large body engulfing me into his da
I grabbed my shirt as tears fell from my eyes. I can’t believe he spoke that way to me. It’s hot when we are role playing, but this was just him being a dick to me.“Don’t leave!” He ordered, stopping me where I stood.“I can easily break your compulsion, idiot.” I closed my eyes, pushing away his command and stepped forward. Just as my hand reached his door knob he pulled me backwards. “I said, don’t leave!” His voice was dark, but void of any anger. He had his shirt in his hand and cleaned the mess he left on my body, spreading his scent from my neck to my stomach.“I’m not here to forget about Blake.” My tone was a little shaky but confident.“Don’t speak his name when you are with me.” His hands smoothed over my body. “You’re mine when we are alone, and no one else’s.”“I am yours, Bolton. I’m not the one that doesn’t understand that.” I looked back at him with a fire in my eyes. He was making my body melt to him, but I was still pissed.“You’re mad at me. It’s kind of adorable.”
Seventeen years in futureMy name is Sasha Lycanic, born a low-level omega with nothing special about a single hair on my body. To make my life infinitely worse, my father was a traitor. My life didn't start out bad, it just kept plummeting downhill and for so long I was too weak to take the wheel. My eyes stared at myself through my vanity's mirror with a small smile tugging at my lips, remembering the days of my youth. I was young and naive. I loved deeply and oh so wrongly. I chose a life that damned myself, and I didn't realize it until it was too late. Now I was grown, no longer a child or so naive."It's time!" My mate called to me and I rose from my chair. Today, I cannot be weak. Today, I would be proud and support my son. My Lycan son, born out of malice and betrayals. I loved him, as I did all my children, but he was the oldest, the first and our future Alpha. "Coming darling." I said in a sweet voice. I may not have become everything I thought I would be, but above all
I sat beside a lake taking long breaths. I knew I couldn’t plead for my life again. This was beyond the goddess’ power and I’ve cheated death too many times. My hand moved over the small bump on my belly and tears fall down my cheeks. If I die, so do they. Would I ever know who they were, or do they become nothing since they were never born?“My daughter.” The velvety smooth poison nearly cracked my skull open and it made me smile. I wiped my tears away as I looked to the moon goddess. I wasn’t dead, at least not yet.“I never thought I would be so happy to be in this much pain.” I cried to her.Charlotte appeared next me and I hugged her instantly. “I miss you so much.”“I miss you too. We don’t have much time and the goddess wanted to speak to you through me.”“Ok.” I bit my lip, body filling with excitement. This had to mean I would return home soon and I couldn’t wait to kiss my mate’s lips.I looked to the moon goddess as Charlotte spoke her words. “This is the last time we will
“This isn’t true.” I mumbled as my feet fumbled over myself. Draconian was pissed and on a mission to get me as far from the pack house as possible. I understood his worry, but I couldn’t just leave. “Where are my children? My family?”“Your mother has them safe and off territory already. We will meet them at an ally pack’.”“An ally pack? They are all here.” I was trying to get my mind to work as we ran down four flights of stairs. I wasn’t even sure how I could survive without Bolton, but I needed to get to my kids. My hand went to my mark, remembering his touch to my skin. I could still feel him. “There’s no pain.”“What?” Draconian looked back at me and the fear that crossed his face was unmistakable.“It doesn’t burn. I can feel Bolton.”“Sasha, he might have not completely died, but we can’t go out there. You’ll be killed in seconds. You have to let him go.” Draconian’s hands came to my arms. He looked at me lovingly, but with a deep longing. “Drac? Something is off.” My eyes
“Sasha! Get up!”I woke to Bolton screaming beside the bed. “What is...” before I could ask I heard the bells of war. “Their here!”“Yes! Today we finish this.” Bolton growled at me with red eyes. There was my monster. He was ready and so was I.“Yes. Today we finish this.” I repeated, standing to kiss my handsome mate then went to dress quickly. I was amped and ready for this battle, but I had no idea how it would end. I was always a foolish girl though, believing good would triumph if I just fought hard enough. Today was the true test of my beliefs and I would forever bury that teenage girl raised as nothing but a weak omega born to a traitor of my pack. Today, Sasha Glancia would truly die and I would own my name and rightful place as Sasha Leto. A name that would be known as the greatest and truest Luna of any specie for generations to come. It was the cost that made it all seem unworthy though.“You ready?” Eldora flew beside me on the roof of our pack house.“I’ve been ready f
Three weeks passed and surprisingly four species coexisted on my land somewhat peacefully. It wasn’t without fights or many being locked away for a night to sober up, but it was three weeks that they all bonded.“I like this little village we have here. It reminds me of the fairy land we occupied.” I snuggled into Bolton’s side. “It is like that. Expect we have proper shelter and plumping here.”“Yes, and I do love the luxuries of modern life. Bath?” I looked up to him. He was as a sweaty mess as myself. He woke me before the sunrise so we could have hours naked in bed before our kids woke. “Tempting, but I have to meet Draconian. He heard some rumors of an attack being planned at my kingdom and the witches’ neighborhoods.”“What rumors?”“Dragons been seen lurking about different territories.”“You think they will attack their lands since most are here? If we leave their people unprotected and they are ambush, it will put a wedge between us all.”“I know and that is why we need a p
“Well, you look... better.” I tried to hide the worry on my face.“I look disgusting.”“It just one little spot. The rest of you is gorgeous.” I gave her a smile.“It’s the only thing anyone can see. Thankfully I’m locked away from the public eye.” Her fingers brushed the dark black ooze on her neck. Something was wrong with her mark and no one knew what. Fortunately, whatever odd growth happening from Blake’s mark it didn’t seem to affect her physically. The doctor cleared all her vitals and said it should have no effect on her child, but even they weren’t sure. There was no record of a mark ever turning into a black crusty wound that occasionally oozed out venom.“It will be ok. You’re perfectly healthy. We just have to be patient. Eldora and... the witch will be here.” I actually didn’t know any of the witches’ names. “I doubt they will know more about a mate’s mark than our own stupid people.” She hit the bars in frustration.“We will figure it out, Cynthia. You’re healthy and a
After watching Cynthia be escorted out of the hospital by our guards the mood between Bolton and I was soured. I couldn’t believe Blake did this to her and it made me want his death on my hands so much more.I couldn’t do that now though. If I killed Blake it would kill her. I was debating what to do about Viktor too. I didn’t want Bolton to lose his mom. The rest of the day he barely said two words to me, but I felt his hand to my skin every moment. He knew I needed to think and without his commentary. He made a point to remind me he was still here though.After dinner I put my kids to bed which my mom and Draconian agreed to stay with them at the pack house. The rest of my sibling stayed too and I doubled the security. I knew if Blake or Viktor showed up, my family would be their first target. It was no secret I would give up anything to keep them safe.By sundown a horde of Vampires arrived. I wasn’t sure who was left at their kingdom or even where it was. Watching Bolton greet th
“We have so many things to do, baby.” Bolton sighed after we made out for another twenty minutes. “I want to just lock you in a room for weeks and enjoy every inch of your body, but we have two major threats we need to kill.”“Blake and Viktor.” I sighed too, feeling the weight of what they would be plotting now. “Do you think they know I’m alive?”“Probably. I want you to remain in the pack house.”“I won’t lock myself in here, psycho. I will promise to be always guarded though.”“I will guard you and no one else.” He growled.Before I could begin telling him that we can’t be literally glued to the others’ side a knock came at the door. I quickly opened it praying it wasn’t bad news.“Cynthia is asking for you, Luna.”“Cynthia? Where is she?”“You haven’t heard?”“No, what’s wrong. The last I knew she left the arena with her fated.”“She isn’t talking, but something happened. She is at the hospital and in bad shape.”I looked to Bolton with worry. “I’ll go right now.”I practically r
The kids ate a mountain of food then ran around talking to almost everyone that came into the dining the hall. They were little social butterflies and felt completely comfortable in our pack. Bolton sat beside me, hand in hand, even as we ate. Once the plates were cleared he pulled me from my chair and into his lap. I could feel his desperate need to feel my skin to his. Before today I would had thought it to be annoying if someone acted like this, but now, knowing I was his only desire, his only need. I felt like the most valuable creation every made. “I love listening to your never ending thoughts.” Bolton’s lips were in my ear. “Especially when they are about giving me every part of you.” “I’m yours now. You can take anything you wish from me.” I gave him a wink and he took my lips like a beast. I giggled over his rough kisses, laying my hands to the sides of his face. “I’m never going to get tired of this. In fact, the more you kiss me the more I want.”“More? I know exactly wh
