Lucian and Arabella Lauren
Chapter 67“You are saying that you and Lucas moved in together about two months ago?” Arabella questioned Lauren. It surprised her that Lucas kept this from her. What else might he be hiding?Lauren was nodding her head, “Yes, it’s been about a month now. We met at college but lost sight of each other after graduation. We found each other again about four months ago and the rest, for us, is history I guess you’d say.”“Did you study law with Lucas then?” Lucian asked.“Oh, no. I was pre-med. Lucas was interning with a local Law group. Funny, Mr. Alexander, the name of the firm is the same as yours.Lucians head jerked up, “What? What did you say? Are you sure?“Yes sir, Alexander is in the name of the firm. I didn’t pay a lot of attention as far as the name was concerned. Lucas was happy and for me, that is all that really mattered. He started working there about a six weeks ago. At first, it seemed kind of hush-hush. I don’t know why and it was part of the fight we had. I accused hi
Lucian and Arabella Into the Fire
Chapter 68Arabella and Lucian stood outside the front doors. Looking around Lucian said, “My Father is here, there is his car. That means that the chauffeur is here also. There should only be the three of them and the chauffeur has a place of his own out back so we won’t have to deal with him. Let’s go get our son.” Lucian stepped forward and opened the unlocked door and they stepped through.The place had not changed over all these years. Lucian thought the old man sold the place but it would seem that was one more lie.“Come, let’s start with the den. Father is always there when he visits this house.”The closer Arabella and Lucian got to the den the more they could hear voices inside.“Listen to me boy, one day you are going to be a great lawyer and I am the only one who can get you there. Can your Father do that? No, he can’t. Only I can do that for you. Say you’ll stay on as a junior partner.”Arabella reached for the door nob, but Lucian’s hand stopped her. “Let’s listen for a
Lucian and Arabella Hell’s Gate
Chapter 69“Ari, it’s you. Wait, how is it that you even know of this place?” The familiar voice came from behind Arabella, “You could have ended up on the wrong side this gate, you do know that, right?”Arabella turned around with a smile, letting go of Adrian’s hand. Where could he run off here?“Gabriel. Where’s Adora?”As Gabriel drew closer, he noticed Adrian and frowned. “You brought another human here? This has never been done before. I should ask Mother about this, though I really don’t care for this one.”“I was hoping you wouldn’t. I have a reason for being here.” Arabella turned her disdainful look on Adrian who was cowering behind her. “Never seen and Angel before, Adrian? Take a good look because he is someone you will see real soon.”Gabriel stood in all his glory. At six foot eleven, Gabriel was the tallest of the Arch Angels. He wore old roman style clothes. A gold breast plate covered Gabriels chest while white cloth draped across his shoulders. Gabriel’s wings were at
Lucian and Arabella Good-bye Adrian
Chapter 70Arabella laughed to herself as she stepped back into the study out of the shadows. Startled, Lucas and Lucian turned around and looked at her. Lucas hurried over to Arabella, Lucian came to Arabella a little bit slower.“Mom, you’re back. We were starting to worry about you. What did you do with grandpa? You didn’t hurt him did you?”“No I didn’t hurt him, but I surely was tempted. How come you didn’t tell me about all of this? I had to learn about it from a stranger who you also did not tell me about. What is wrong with you Lucas? Did me or your Father do something that sent you to Adrian and how did he know where to find you anyway?” Words rushed out of Arabella’s mouth.“Slow down mom.” Lucas could see that Arabella was upset to the max. He hadn’t seen her this angry since the time she caught him playing with a hornets nest. “Grandpa was at my graduation. He came up to me and offered me a job as an intern in his practice. I’ve been there all summer. But I wasn’t going to
Lucian and Arabella Memories
Chapter 71Lucian smiled as he watched the raven haired beauty walk down the steps of Bernard hall. She did not see him yet. “Hey beautiful, do you need help getting around campus?”Lucian startled Arabella, she hadn’t expected him to be around the campus. Turning toward him, she could see the boy she once loved in the man he became.Arabella smiled, “What are you doing here Lucian?”“Ahhh, my beauty, that is not in the script. You are suppose to smile and let me buy you a cup of coffee. There are fireworks at the field tonight and I was wondering if you would go with me?”“Slow down, Lucian. Coffee first, we can discuss the fireworks later. Deal?”‘Deal, my Bella.” Lucian grinned from ear to ear as they walked toward the same coffee shop they visited years ago. It was amazing it was still standing.Arabella laughed so hard, her insides hurt. Lucian was telling her stories about some of his clients. It felt so good and right to be with him; Arabella was going to take it slow. She would
Lucian and Arabella Husband
Chapter 72Arabella busied herself in the kitchen rinsing dishes and placing them in the dishwasher. Her mind was not on what she was doing; it was far away with Lucian. She was slowly coming to the conclusion that she did not want to live without Lucian. He was her heart and soul and always had been.She smiled as she remembered these last few months. Lucian jumped through hoops trying to remind Arabella about what they once had. Arabella was no longer interested in what once was and was getting excited about what could be now and in the future. She and Lucian were still young enough to enjoy the world and each other.Arabella was still smiling when the knock came to her door. Thinking it could only be Lucian at this time of the morning, she opened the door with a grin, ready to let him know where her heart was headed. It wasn’t Lucian.Arabella’s smile faded slightly. “Hello? Can I help you? Are you lost?” She asked the woman who stood in front of her.“I’m not sure,” she replied, “A
Lucian and Arabella It’s Over
Chapter 73“You two need to get off my porch, off my mountain and I hope to never see you again Lucian.” Arabella’s heart shattered. Why did she do this to herself? Once again she started trusting an Alexander and look at what happened. She slammed the door in Lucian’s face before he could utter another word.Lucian’s face paled. What in god’s name happened here? He looked hard at the woman left standing on the porch. She gave him an innocent smile before moving off Arabella’s porch. Lucian was not about to follow her, he needed to talk to Arabella, to explain what seemed unexplainable.“If you go after her now, you will probably both say something you will regret. Maybe it would be a good idea to give your little girlfriend a break to pull herself together.” Scarlet’s voice held a hint of laughter which angered Lucian.“What are you doing here, Scarlet? I don’t hear from you in years and suddenly you pop up out of nowhere and you end up here of all places. What is your game Scarlet?”
Lucian and Arabella Sanctuary
Chapter 74Arabella lay on her lounge chair by the ocean. The crystal blue waters helped to calm her battered heart. An umbrella shaded her face as she gazed out to sea. It was beautiful and calm here. Slowly the heat penetrated her skin causing a fine sheen to glisten on her body.Sinking into the heat, Arabella finally looked back on what brought her to Sanctuary. Lucian! That lying, cheating .. oh, that man. She could make him pay like she did with Adrian but Adrian’s sins were a lot worse than Lucian’s. Adrian destroyed good people, Lucian only hurt her that she knew of. What about this woman? Did he hurt her too. It was all too much to think about and she was here to rest not play mind games with herself.Breakfast was served on the wide veranda of the main house. Arabella smiled at the cook until she left Arabella alone. The cook felt she was too skinny and it was her job to fatten Arabella up. When Arabella first arrived she couldn’t eat anything, she was that torn up inside. B

Lucian and Arabella Rising Sun
Chapter 101Arabella never called.Arabella lifted her head to the rising sun. She couldn’t remember how many nights she stayed up with one grieving person or another. At times, she wondered if she even helped these people. The Borders people were using her in may ways. One of them being this, midwife. Until now, she had never delivered before. She lost count of how many she had delivered. They were constantly on the move from one village to another.“You look like shit, Ari. Go, get some rest, I’ll clean up here.” Mac had been with Borders for many years and in that time he had been many things. Throwing Ari into it without her realizing the extent of their needs. It didn’t set well with Mac. Arabella was a nice and gentle woman and had a way of putting the patients at ease. Her help was greater than she realized.“It’s okay, Mac. If we both do it we can both get some rest. Don’t think I haven’t noticed you driving yourself half to death.” Arabella replied. “You push yourself too har
Lucian and Arabella Alone Again
Chapter 100Arabella sat in front of the cave one last time before she had to leave for the airport. She felt a great sadness when she gazed at the rubble that was once her place of peace. So much over the years was soaked into the rocks and ground. It was a place where she felt close to her mother and father. She felt a touch of loneliness when her thoughts turned toward Lucian. Too much time was lost to them. The years separated them. Adrian separated them. Arabella stood up and started the hike back to the cabin. It was time to leave.Arabella didn’t rush home. Thorn walked with her and she savored his presence. “I don’t know when I’ll be back. Jack promised to take care of the place and check up on you once in a while.” Thorn cocked his head to the side as he listened to Arabella. He understood more than people knew. He had his own large pack to take care of but that didn’t mean he wouldn’t miss the walks and talking she did with him. Over the years his pack grew to the size it wa
Lucian and Arabella A New World

In the distance she could hear the forlorn howl of Thorn and his pack. The forest itself became silent as though it were waiting for something more than it had already received, Arabella felt as though the world had stopped.The sound of a living forest returned slowly and Thorn’s pack could no longer be heard. Arabella knew it would be a shock to her system but after Ella blocked her abilities before, it showed Arabella that she could handle it. The mental agony could not be avoided but that too would fade as time went on.After the dust settled, Arabella looked around the forest and clearing where the cave once stood. Somehow, it all looked brand new. It was as though she had entered a new world. The shape and color of the leaves and pine needles on the trees took on a whole new meaning to her minds eye. They were sharper and the col

Gently, Lucian picked up Arabella in his arms to carry her to her room.Arabella stirred slightly but did not awaken as Lucian strode toward the cabin.

Lucian and Arabella Absorption
Chapter 95Mother, Fate and Karma were Ella’s judge and jury. She stood before them in silver chains, insolent, uncaring. Ella lifted her head in arrogance as Mother read out her crimes. The top crime being her kidnapping of a human. One of the biggest no no’s were harming a human in any way to which Ella qualified for by her actions. Arabella stood to one side of the Dias; she was to give evidence against Ella.Arabella was uncomfortable to be in the presence of three such powerful women. She shuffled her feet so much she caught a warning look from Karma. Arabella stood stock still so as to not bring more attention on herself.The proceeding was similar as on earth except Ella was not allowed to defend herself. All of her misdeeds were playing out o the walls surrounding the proceedings. Ella was not the least bit repentant. She did not believe Mother would actually send her to be absorbed. It just was not done anymore. With that thought in mind, a small smile played out on her lips.
Lucian and Arabella Ending
Chapter 94Lucian walked back to the veranda to be close to Arabella while she slept. He was not surprised to find Thorn asleep on the porch beside the lounger where Arabella lay. Smiling to himself, Lucian sat down to wait on Arabella.Arabella’s sleep was long and uneventful. Echaustion keep the nightmares away. Slowly, Arabella started to wake up. She groaned a little at the pain from sleeping in one position for a long period of time. Arabella found herself alone on the veranda and started to panic. Just as she was ready to lose it, Lucian walked onto the veranda with hot coffee and finger sandwiches.“Ah, finally, you are awake?” Lucian said with a smile in his voice. “I was hoping you would soon. You must be starving by now.” Lucian set the tray with the coffee and food on the small table in front of Arabella.“Lucian, you’re here,” Arabella breathed whispered before she could stop herself. “Where is Selene? Oh, by the Gods, where is Ella?”Arabella tried to jump up from her cha
Lucian and Arabella Captured
Chapter 93Suddenly, Ella realized it was not Arabella, but Selene that stood before her. Quickly, she reached for the shadows, but nothing happened. Running to the mouth of the cave, Ella stopped short. Outdide stood Michael, his sword of rightness was drawn. Ella’s shoulders slumped in defeat.“How did you find her?” Ella was curious as to why her spell didn’t work.“Silly woman,” replied Selene, “You forgot one important element.”Ella was getting impatient and almost stomped her foot in anger. “No need to draw this out Selene.”“Please Ella,” Selene smiled, “Let me finish. You forgot she was half human. That rather voided your magic. Why did you do this, Ella? What did Arabella ever do to you?”“Do to me? You want to know what she ever did to me? She exists, Selene. Do you understand that? She exists. I have spent my life having Arabella shoved down my throat. So much so that I never felt good enough for you. What better way to reach than through your ‘daughter’. Your precious Ara
