EMMA’S POVThe ride home was filled with silence, except for the soft purring of the Ac that seemed to fuel my irritation. I was not in the right frame of mind to hold a decent conversation with Lucien.The ride home seemed to drag on, and I couldn’t help but curse my bad luck.His actions lately seemed to drive me over the edge, and his words hitting the appropriate places like a stray bullet.And it definitely seemed to hit its mark.I still couldn’t wrap my head around the fact that I was his roommate, considering what we have been through together.I just didn’t get it. Get the fact that I was unlovable, and it broke me. It broke through my resolve, and there was nothing I could do about it. I definitely didn’t know what I did wrong or where everything went wrong.His indifference fuelling my irritation, I definitely didn’t want to be around him at this point, not until I would be able to exorcise myself of the feeling I had for him.I knew it would take a while before that co

LUCIEN’S POVEver since this morning, Emma had been ignoring me although I deserved the cold shoulders, but it still hurt. I kept on stealing glances at her during our ride home this morning, but I couldn’t get a read of her emotions. She seemed closed off, and upset I just wanted her to smile at me again. I almost died of a heart attack when I finally heard her speak, but her words weren’t directed at me, But the driver.And I wished she would at least talk to me, I wanted her to hear me out so bad. Not even when I offered her my hand to take, her icy reply when I told her we had gotten home made me recoil.Uneasiness overtook me.I let her have her space after I asked her if she needed anything; she didn’t want me around her anyway, so I sat in the living room staring at her as she wrote, her face Devoid of any emotion. But I could tell she was at peace, at least before she wrote whatever made her heart rate rise a whole lot.She didn’t even speak to me on our way to the hos

I didn’t know how it got from this to this over night. I mean we had cuddled over night. Spent the whole night trying to talk everything out.I mean we even cuddled, and now he would not even look at me. The moment I knew something was wrong was when I woke up to an empty bed. The sheets still smelling strongly of his scent.But there was no Lucien. And I didn’t know what to make of that. There had been lots of heightened emotions last night. Sexual tension enveloping us like a blanket, for a moment I had hoped the cuddles would have led to something else, I mean I would have been down for it.Down for anything as long as it was with Lucien Blacthorne.But that was not the issue here. The issue was Lucien had been ignoring me ever since this morning. Speaking of which, I didn’t even see him, I have looked for him everywhere. And I mean everywhere. I just couldn’t place it. It felt like he was close by, yet far What was worse was that I could feel him, sense him, and even smel

LUCIEN'S POVIgnoring Emma was the most stupid decision that I had made in my entire life, I had to ensure that I was out of here before she could suspect anything.And I knew nothing could ever get past Emma.She was too smart for her own good, I had woken up earlier than her this morning, made breakfast quietly so I wouldn’t have to hold a conversation with her if she woke up.If I needed to avoid her, I had to be out of here, so I had taken my time to know all the nooks and cranny of pine field. I even saw the antique shop where Emma got the Inkwell, the shopkeeper engrossed in whatever it was he was doing. I wasn’t exactly surprised when I got home, and Emma had tried engaging me in small talks, conversation that I didn’t want to be in, so I had given her one excuse of going to take a shower, shower that ended up taking hours to finish.Honestly trying to avoid Emma, the clothes she had on was messing with my head, turning me into a complete recluse, and she didn’t even notice

LUCIEN’S POV It took a while before she responded to my kisses, and when she did.It was blissful, I nibbled, sucked, and teased her bottom lip which elicited a soft moan from her. Her soft moan turning me on.The kiss went from slow and steady to needy, and a little bit aggressive, my hand found the curves at her back, groping softly, and her hand running through the roots of my hair.This action seemed to stir the wolf in me, begging to be let out more than ever, I was having a hard time keeping it under a leash.I didn’t want to hurt her like this, and for a moment, I wished I was human. Wished that I could give her my all without afraid of a beast letting loose.Sensing my urge to pull back off she pulled me back in, one of her legs wrapping around my waist, as I teased her with my already growing bulge.This seemed to be doing the trick as she became a quivering mess pleading with me in small breathes not to stop.Letting out a small growl, I started to feel the changes, my

EMMA’S POV Ever since that day that Lucien had hung out my dirty linen for me to see, used my heart to play a game of ping pong, I couldn’t stand the sight of him.I was repulsed staying in the same space next to him, he didn’t get to treat me like that, didn’t get to say a whole lot of mean things and expect me to still be cordial with him.I mean hello, you do not get to do that.So that is why I have been ignoring him ever since then, focused entirely on my book, that seemed to confuse me a whole lot, and that stinging pain, and metal colliding with fresh was more prominent after every word I wrote.I didn’t know how to explain it, I didn’t know who to ask.I mean I could easily ask Lucien but then my ego would not let me.Right now I was on my way to the antique shop, after impolitely declining Lucien’s offer to accompany me.I didn’t necessarily want to be drawn to his bad energy.Because that was what he was a ticking time bomb that was waiting patiently to detonate taking ev

LILITH'S POVI could not explain the anger that rolled off my body after I found out the inkwell had been sold, I had been in an offensive mood ever since Brian brought the news to me, a smirk evident on his face as if mocking me. If not that I needed him, I would have dealt with him, made him beg for his life till I decided on what to do with him.At least, that would put him in his rightful position, and he wouldn't dare mess with me, for I was Lilith, the holder of lives and the one who could rule over fickle-minded men to the right path; I was their only path to salvation.I had made necessary plans in place, the pines field being one of my priorities. I needed to visit the antique shopkeeper and needed him to tell me who or whom he sold the inkwell to.As it was, my patience was running thin; I needed that inkwell like yesterday. to finally get all that I had ever wanted.I wanted power in large doses, I wanted to rule the world.I yearned for the satisfaction of seeing my own r

BRIAN’S POV I was spent at this point, I had tried going to pay a little visit to the shopkeeper, but he had placed a damn curse that smacked me right off my feet anytime I came close to the door. The door handle zapping me senseless. So I had planted trails that would lead me to the inkwell itself, although I had no lead, and I needed to discuss it with Lilith, I needed her permission. I placed a call to Lilith, the line only beeping twice before she picked up, her voice ringing through the room“It is about damn time you called Brian” she yelled, my ear ringing loudly.“You know very well why I haven’t reached out to you Lilith, “ I said exhaustion rolling into my voice“Are you sure that is the only thing keeping you busy Brian? She asked candidly, there was a long pause after The question.Which caused her to cackle, her devilish laughter reverberating through the phone, and I hated the way she always made me feel small.“I thought as much Brian, so when you are done philand

LUCIEN’S POV “What do we do with this Lucien?” Emma asked pointedly, staring at the briefcase that the shopkeeper had pressed into her hands.“Uhm” I said clearing my throat loudly as I went through the content of the briefcase. The books as well as scrolls containing valuable pieces of information that could ruin this obsidian order, it could leave them in flames if words got out, their illegalities piling higher at every turn of the page.There were several counter curse books and spells that peeked out the brief case, and a gold ball that had strange marks on them, and red stones peeking out it’s body, it was rough to touch and finally a book about the inkwell in a big brown old book, relief seeping through us as we flipped it open.Our relief didn’t last for long, the big brawny book was just a repetition of what the shopkeeper told us earlier, each image deflating our previous excitement.Frustration and anger seeping through us as we flipped open pages upon pages of the book

LILITH’S POV Anger, or rather satisfaction ran through my veins as I saw the hordes getting tore up by werewolves, their acrid stench filling up the air as I watched them squirm for their lives. My sudden urge to kill dissipating as I watched them burst into flames, the hunt getting intense as the hordes ran through the maze.Several hordes scattered across the bleachers on the great fields as they watched their own die, the fear in their eyes exciting as I took it all in.Vashka and Mordecai sitting rigidly beside me on an elevated podium as we watched hordes and wolves dissolve into nothingness, my heart thumping with satisfaction as I watched it go on and on.Boredom suddenly overshadowing my initial satisfaction, the hunt seemed to go on for a long time, I had important things to do, my company was in danger and I didn’t have all day watching one useless match.“Stop the hunt” I said with a snap of my fingers, my sunshades sitting pretty on my face as I heard the moderator spe

EMMA’S POV These past days had been hectic, I felt like I was slowly loosing myself. I felt I was going insane, these shadows were popping off everywhere and anywhere.They had me in a chokehold, smothering me with their ominous presence and there was nothing I could do about it.I could not exactly explain this to Lucien because he didn’t see the same things I saw, he could not feel them. They didn’t show any form of mercy, the only time I was free from Their hold was when I was busy with work.And my book was almost as good as being published, we just needed to send it in for proofreading and editing for the third time before we finally published it.My marketing team was already on standby, teasing the audience with certain lines from my new book, I could even feel the success on my palms, I could even taste it.And now that I was finally going to know about the history of that damned inkwell, the shopkeeper was just going to turn me out on the street with half baked words. Nah,

LUCIEN’S POV The house had suddenly grown too cold, and it was all Emma’s doing. Ever since her breakdown in this damn living room things hadn’t been the same again. Things had started to spiral out of control and I had to watch Emma painfully loose herself to whatever insanity was going on. She felt different, looked different and even acted different. The sudden shift in her behaviour haunted me, it was all my fault.If only I had listened to her, if only I had seen the damn shadows she had talked about. We would not even be here.Emma had become detached, yes she was crazy about publishing her new book and she even met with this British publisher almost every time, or even spent hours on the phone with the blonde bloke.When she wasn’t with him, when she was not occupied with things that could keep her on her feet, she was a different person entirely. She was a mess, screaming and crying till her voice became hoarse, or sometimes she was yelling incoherent words that didn’t make

EMMA’S POV “Arghhhh.”I was so stupid, so so stupid.What the well was I expecting“Fuck !It was one thing getting lost in the moment it was another thing going through with it. Damn I looked so stupid, Heck I even sounded stupid.Even though it was something that I had badly wanted to do, but now that I had done it I wasn’t so sure about it. the look in Lucien’s eyes after had sent me reeling with shock and more importantly shame.“Uggh” What the hell was I going to do. There was no way in hell that I could stand before Lucien without getting embarrassed.I didn’t know what I expecting. I should have known that with Lucien it was never a straight line, one had to walk in damn circles. I just wanted to Bury myself and cry all because stupid Lucien left me out to dry.Anger sizzling through me as I made my way to the bathroom, the memory of us having sex plunging into my mind as I felt myself tingle with excitement and desir

LUCIEN’S POV There was something different about Pines field, although I could not exactly place a finger on it. Things about Pines field didn’t feel the same. It felt distant. And clearly, it didn’t feel as welcoming as it used to be, something about it just felt different, felt out of place, it just felt utterly different and cold. After drilling the placard on Emma’s front door, I decided to take a nice long walk. I wanted to feel that familiar semblance, wanted to breathe in fresh air and not the filth that horde island was filled with. The familiar streets breathing relief down my neck as I let myself take it all in, the burst of freshly groomed flowers giving me a certain peace that I craved for .I wanted to drink it all in, but there was that nagging feeling settling at the back of mind, growing wings as it set across my head. Leaving distaste and utter frustration in it’s wake.That particular sensation of impending doom didn’t subside a bit.

LILITH’S POV I could feel the anger swirl within me, Brian was taking his precious time to show up for the meeting, my forehead ticking with several emotions as I waited for him.The boardroom filled with agitated beasts as they sat, tapping their feet furiously against the table frustration written in bold letters on their faces.The ticking of the clock adding to their agitation. “Can’t we just start this meeting without Lucien?” Luke from I T department asked, the invisible wheels in his head working overtime as he tried his possible best to school his emotions.“For the hundredth time no” I snapped, shutting him up. The anger in his face evident as he glared at the pen in his hands, setting it on fire with the gaze in his eyes.“Luke! Half of the table cried put, smoke teasing their nostrils as the coughed, my mind reeling at his little tactics. “Where the hell is Brian?” Trisha asked through gritted teeth, agitation evident in her

EMMA’S POV I could still feel the flames of desire Lucien left in his wake, his kisses awakening all the desires i had kept hidden. The feel of his hands on my breasts made my head reel with a sudden need. his betrayal making my heart sink into a bottomless pit, snatching me from the little la la land i was in.The tears leaking from my eye didn’t show any sign of stopping.Not even when I had tried to yank myself free from the bedpost wishing it would snap into halves, its hold on me frustrating.But that didn’t even happen. No matter how hard I tugged, no matter how hard I tried to let myself loose.I just ended up injuring myself, the plastic cuffs eating slowly into my arms causing small blisters to form.I might have dozed off once or twice, my middle still throbbed with so much desire it threatened to spill out of me.My face was still stunning with pain from earlier, anger swirling through me at the thought of Vashka’s filthy hands on

LUCIEN’S POV Anger. I felt the sudden need to punch Vashka or Kavashka whatever his name was , after the stupid stunt he had pulled in the great hall. He deserved to be stoked to death, deserved all the meanness I could possibly think ofAfter he used his filthy horde hands to do series of atrocity on Emma’s fragile body, he deserved he’ll and more.“ Xi, walk slow” Xvii whined, his short strides trying to catch up with my own long strides. Although it hurt to leave Emma like . If I could. I swear I would tie her with me and just make a run for it.But that wasn’t going to be possible, I couldn’t risk losing weeks of rigorous planning just because I was irrational. I still remembered the look of betrayal that had shone in eyes, I could still feel the desire running wild within me,.But I needed to teach the beast a lesson, nobody had the right to put their hands on Emma like that, she was fragile and they needed to treat her like one.“You remember the plan’s right, we do it be
