Oliver’s POVFeeling a little more confident than I was a few hours ago even though we didn’t have the help that I was hoping for, it didn’t matter we were going to get through this. We would kill or be killed, but at least my mate would know I was fighting for her. I was tired of being this pathetic Alpha, it was time I found my light, it was time I fought back instead of having people walk all over me.I wasn't sure why my pack supported me all these years, but I was glad they had my back. They knew I was bringing the Luna home so they all wanted me to do my best to bring her safely home. I knew it was taking a chance, but the Council made a bad mistake and now they were going to see just how pissed off I was.“Here’s your bag,” Micah said coming outside with us. “You better bring yourself and your mate back here safely, don’t make me regret not forcing you to take me with you,” he said handing me the bag.“Don't worry I have enough help, we’re not going to be long. I will call you
Vampire King’s POV“Oliver Stone is here with another male and Nick is also here.” One of the vampires said coming into the Council Hall.“I guess we should get ready.” I smiled. “I guess this is goodbye King Gideon it was nice knowing you, but so glad your rein is ending and I don’t have to deal with you anymore,” I said sitting back down.I knew Oliver was going to be glad to get his revenge but he isn't going to like that I am going to take his mate and he isn't getting her back the way she was. He would have to accept her as the hybrid vampire and we all know the werewolves hate our kind.“Get ready when they come in here we have to be quick,” I spoke.“I hope he kills you.” King Gideon growled.“No, I think he is going to kill you.” I mused. “But I will give him a run for his money if he thinks he can hurt me. He hasn't been able to get close enough to me, but I will allow it to show you he isn't as strong as he should be.”“Threaten him with his mate and see how far you get with
Vampire King’s POVOliver was the only one that I felt wasn't a threat. Maybe it was because he was that close to his mate that he didn’t want to take a chance and hurt anyone. I wanted to see his face when he saw her, I know Roman was left in charge of her, I knew King Gideon didn’t even know his kind was with me. She was going to be mine, Roman was the reason I was able to get into their walls without anyone knowing, so with that I told him I would allow him anything he wanted.“Is this the werewolf?” one of my generals asked.“Yeah, he is the one I hope makes things easier,” I said looking at Oliver. “But he has one of those crazy wolves when provoked so you have to watch him carefully,” I said looking at the castle. “Has there been any movement lately?”“No it seems like they are expecting nothing,” he said shrugging his shoulders. “Where is the King?”“Here,” I said tossing him the bag with his head. “I think this will get people to realize he is dead and Nathaniel can retake his
Soma’s POVWatching the doors I was nervous about what was about to happen to Darcy, I didn’t want to see her die because she wanted to give me a chance to run away. When the doors opened, and a guard was speaking to someone I was getting nervous. I thought I knew the voice but I wasn't sure.When he walked into the room I knew it was the Vampire King. What was he doing here? Was he going to be the one that kills Darcy and me? I was afraid, but I knew I had to be strong otherwise these Lycans and vampires would hurt me, I didn’t want to show them I was just this human they thought they could bully.“Ah finally!” Roman said moving away from us, Darcy and Max. I didn’t want them getting hurt because they didn’t like King Gideon.“Sorry, but your King took his sweet time coming to us.” The Vampire King complained. “But at least we are here to finish our business deal.”“And where is the King?” Roman asked moving a little away from the Vampire King. It was almost funny because even though
Soma’s POVAfter Roman guards took away Max, Oliver finally was on his knees. I knew he wasn't going to let anything more happen to me. I wanted to get closer to him but they had him out of my reach.“Oliver,” I called, but he didn’t look at me. I felt a sadness building but I had to remember they drugged him with something otherwise he would have already gotten to me.“So Nathaniel since you don’t want to help me, I am going to start my torture of your daughter at least until your mate arrives and when you don’t comply I am going to mark her and make her mine, and then we are going to kill you both together.”I tried slipping my hands out of the chains, but they seemed like they were coated with something, it was kind of burning my wrists. I wanted to tell Roman he was hurting me, but clearly, he had all of this planned. I didn’t want to see anyone die, but seeing Roman begging for his life was something I could see. I knew what I was feeling was wrong, but with everything that I had
Vampire King’s POVWatching everything go down in slow motion was inviting. When I found out Roman had Nathaniel’s mate, I could see it was beginning to bring out his Lycan. I didn’t want to see Nathaniel hurt but if they killed each other I would just move my Clan into this castle and force the other Lycans to bow down to me, and show me the respect the vampires had lacked all these years.Lost in my thoughts I didn’t see Oliver lunge at Roman, I stood there and watch everything unfold. It was amazing that Oliver was able to fight through the drugs they were weak against, but it was also good that he was going to kill Roman.I thought Roman was a good Lycan but clearly, he wanted more power than King Gideon had. He wanted the same things he did, and he was just like King Gideon. So it was something I knew would be a good ending if Oliver hurt him or killed him at least.“Finally!” Roman growled at Oliver. “I was beginning to think I would have to beat your mate to death to get you to
Seff's POVI felt my connection to Soma getting stronger, she was getting weaker because of the torture her body was going through. I knew I had to protect her as much as I could. I knew she wouldn't allow me to fully take over because she hadn’t mated with Oliver. If they would have marked each other I would have been able to stop most of this. Seeing my mate struggling to regain himself, I knew they used a crazy dose of Night’s Bane. It was banned in the Lycan community so how they got it was surprising, but they would pay for what they did.I needed to be free of these chains, but I wasn't sure Soma had the strength to will herself into me, if she did that we would be able to get through all of this together. I would save our mate, and she would get to be free of this.When I felt the vampire bite into us, I knew he was making a mistake. He didn’t realize my becoming like him would end his race. We would kill everyone and not care about what happens. We would be a rabid dog and the
Nathaniel’s POVWatching things go down was crazy, I didn’t know Seff was going to be like this. I did know she was an ancient being but I didn’t know she could be consumed by darkness from a simple vampire bite. I didn’t get to talk to my mate before she disappeared and now that she was in front of me I knew there was something I had to do. I knew I had to shut Seff down again before she got our daughter killed. I wasn't sure if Seff knew what she was doing or if she was out of control. I couldn’t chance it.When she went for Soma’s mate I had to stop her, I lunged at her before she connected with Oliver. I was afraid to bite her as I have read it was a bad thing. Closing my eyes I knew it was either her or me and I didn’t care about myself anymore.Forcing her to the ground I was able to get on top of her, she was stronger than I was but I still managed to have the upper hand. I felt everyone was unsafe, but I knew this was the only way we could do this. Until we knew if there was a
