LOGIN-VALEN’S POVAcrid fear bled from the crowd. I could smell the thick apprehension stuck on them like a leech. I knew they sensed the shift in my aura and were intimidated.“Weaklings and cowards,” Zeus thought, picking up every stuttering heartbeat and shallow breath echoing through the stadium.Wentz flinched but quickly disguised his fear, though his blue eyes were on the ground when he spoke with the right amount of respect. "As Alphas, we will carry out our duty by the Order of the Moon Goddess’ Will to ensure the one who shone can fulfill her role.”“All of your duties fall under the Alpha King and his heir. It might work out badly for you to stand up there and be part of this fiasco,” I gritted viciously, eyeing him with scorching intensity. “You’ve got guts standing there like I can’t throw you all in the damn galdron.”Carson gulped but stood defiantly, hardening his black eyes and keeping his voice leveled. "We are not defying you, Alpha Valen. But we should be allowed to vo
RAINA’S POVValen and I stiffened. My heart thundered to a halt, and my gaze jumped from Theo to him.My mate’s face hardened. He asked aggressively, “For what? I’ve heard nothing of the sort.”“That’s all I know.” Theo’s unsettling gaze shifted towards me.“I guess we will have to find out when we get there,” Devin said with concern, glancing at Valen.“It better not be another audition for the senior citizens’ soccer league. All they ever did was miss kick after kick, and I'm talking about hours into the game,” Theo commented judgmentally. “The ball stayed in one spot, literally.”“I doubt it's recreational.” I shook my head, knowing very well that they had to be up to something.“They're playing their hand,” Valen deciphered, low and caustic.“Already?” Penn asked in disbelief.Trouble squeezed at my gut, and I began fretting. My grip tightened on Valen’s hand, and I swallowed hard, feeling my heart thumping in dreaded anticipation.When it’s not one thing, it’s the other.I glanced
RAINA’S POVAzara’s auburn eyes widened in panic. “Um, no. Bad combination.” She shifted her eyes to our witch friend. “Tell her Penn.”“I wouldn’t want her near that medallion,” Penn replied promptly, looking at me. “We’ll keep trying.”Azara blew out a relieved breath. “I think you just saved the whole world with that one statement.”“Point made,” I conceded, sheathing the sword on my hip.I appreciated that we wouldn’t have to involve Jiya, knowing the distrust we harbored towards her. Deep down, I feared that if we had to consult her, she might lean toward thinking the medallion could be more useful to her than to be destroyed.As we sipped our cool drink, we diverted our attention to the guys who were going head-to-head with matching grins.Although Valen’s wide back was turned to me, his large and dominant energy oozed formidability. My eyes soaked in every flicker of his tendons, every contraction of his muscles, catching his tattoos and fast reflexes as he moved about.I bit m
RAINA’S POV“Whoa!” Azara screamed behind me. “Here it comes again!”A crackling dark charge exploded from the medallion. I threw myself to the side to avoid the savage line of blackened energy tearing across the grass in Valen’s backyard.A puff of air left my lungs as I flashed my eyes, watching it race straight towards the girls like a slithering anaconda, scorching the earth in its path.Azara’s eyes bulged, freaking out with, “Stop this thing before it gets me.”Penn dashed in front of it, quickly making hand signals as she chanted, “Scu-tum-ful-minis, firma-mane.”She conjured a vast magical shield and held her ground strong, bracing and pushing its force forward until the dark charge slammed into it with a violent wham. Dirt, grass, leaves, yellow sparks, and black mana burst upward in a storm. Her face scrunched as she strained to force it backwards.“I’m coming!” I yelled, swiftly shooting to my feet. I ran over to the crackling black wave, my chest pumping hard. I raised my
RAINA’S POVEventually, I pulled over at a lakeside promenade and killed the engine. I dropped my hands from the steering wheel into my lap, taking a deep breath in and out to steady myself. The ache in my chest eased just a little, and I actually felt somewhat calmer.Staring beyond my windshield, I noticed a wide wooden boardwalk stretched along the water's edge. Its weathered brown planks traveled toward a distant line of trees and rolling blue-gray mountains. Suddenly, I felt like going for a walk.I raked my hair over and leaned back in my seat and then stared out the window, overlooking the calm, glassy body of water.I've never been here before, but the scenery was quite beautiful.Since I was done screaming...was done crying and wasn’t going to wallow in my own self-pity, I lifted my chin, plastered a faint smile, and I opened my car door.Just when I landed one foot outside on the peach-colored pavement, in a flash, Valen was before me, looking quite frantic. He held out the
RAINA’S POVTears blinded my path as I panted furiously, running through the high black gates to leave the memorial garden. I didn’t look back, not even once.Enlightening. Not in the good sense, because the worst just happened. It was the shock of my life. One that shattered my heart into a million pieces.No matter how I tried blinking the salty water back, the wetness trickled down my cheeks, and I couldn't let Jiya see how much she affected me.I headed straight to my car in the perpendicular parking area.“Raina!” Valen roared, but I couldn't stop.It hurt too much, as if someone had thrust a barbell straight into my chest.I didn't know what to make of the intimate position I found Valen and Jiya in. It was too intimate, and to top it off, their bond couldn’t be broken. What a slap!As soon as I opened the car door, I jumped into the driver's seat, started the engine, and reversed so fast that I knocked over the garbage bin on the other side of the asphalt parking lot. Then I dro
VALEN’S POVLetting the thrumming bond guide my teleportation, I ended up at the entrance of the hospital, where a crowd had gathered.A deep growl from me parted them instantly, and I strode towards my mate in large, urgent steps. The Worgen followed my shimmer but was mindful of keeping some dist
VALEN’S POVI'll give him a weakness, alright.“You claim to be a protector, my mate’s guardian. Yet you defy me and twist truths. If you won’t stand with the king of this realm, then tell me, Worgen, whose cause do you truly serve?” I accused, “You seem to guard only your own ambitions.”Gustav ju
RAINA’S POV“You’ve got some nerve eyeing what’s mine.” Valen’s vermilion eyes flared wild at Connery, his jowls curled back over impossibly long, sharp teeth. “Bold, but very foolish.”A low growl rumbled through the conference room. Death incarnate. Violence personified.No, not through the room.
RAINA’S POVThe evening sky burned orange over the wrecking town. The air was thick with the scent of gunpowder and fresh blood, as boots thundered and orders barked.“The operation is on,” I mumbled.Crack-crack-crack. Pistols echoed down the asphalt driveway that split the grassy yard. Rounds pie
