RYLEE Watching my mate struggle with himself was painful. I could feel his desperation and fear, at the same time. The fact remained that he was trying so hard not to feed on me because he was afraid that he would hurt me. "I can't," he croaked, squeezing his eyes shut. "Vincent, you're hurting," I rasped, more tears rolling down my cheeks. "I can bear it. I have to," Those words made my heart squeeze. He buried his head in the crook of my neck, his grip on my shirt tightening. Placing a hand on the back of his head, I made him rest his head on my shoulder. I started to stroke his hair as gently as I could. At this point, I was willing to do anything to make him feel better. "You're going to be okay," I whispered, my voice trembling. I began to hum a melodious tone with my eyes squeezed shut. I thought of the blue skies. I thought of a field of yellow daffodils. I thought of the mountains. Of snow and mist. "Rylee..."Vincent sounded exhausted. He was no longer trembling and was
RYLEE I had barely processed the fact that Killian was right there with us on the cliff when I felt myself being snatched out of Vincent's arms. Panic immediately set in and a cry escaped my lips as I reached out for Vincent who was also reaching out for me. A thick dark fog wrapped itself around me and kept me trapped in mid air. Vincent tried to move towards me but it appeared that he couldn't move. There was some kind of invisible barrier keeping him away from me. Killian stood there dressed in black. His hands were buried in the pockets of his pants as he stared at Vincent with mockery in his dark eyes."I'll like to see you try to save her," he drawled as my mate continued to battle with the invisible barrier. "Let her go, you bastard!" My mate yelled. His eyes had turned red and he was desperate. It was written all over him. "Watch as I feed on her soul energy and render her useless," Killian said. I felt my body moving towards him and soon, I was right beside him. He grabbed
RYLEE He reached out and cupped my face. His long fingers were cold. I was having a hard time wrapping my head around what was happening. I was at a loss of what to do or say. All I did was stare. "You missed me, didn't you?" He asked, brushing my hair away from my face. His touches were featherlight, they brought tears to my eyes. "I know what you're thinking. But, that's not it. This is real. I am real," he said, taking hold of my hand and bringing my palm to his cheek. He felt real. Still, I wanted to believe that it was a mere dream. He was supposed to be dead. They had told me that they had burnt his body and buried his ashes. Although, I never got the chance to visit his grave, I was a hundred percent certain that he had died. I had watched him die, unable to do anything but cry. I swallowed hard, a tear rolling down my left cheek. Another tear escaped my right eye. "Won't you say something? I know you're surprised. Aren't you happy to see me?" He asked, searching my eyes int
VINCENT "You felt his presence? I thought you said he was gone. I know he's a hybrid...but surviving the fall.... it's a bit too much," Jared said. I turned to look at Rylee. She had tears in her eyes and could barely look me in the eye. "You saw him last night, didn't you?" I said and she looked up, startled. "I... how did you...""I saw him right before he vanished. He fooled you," I said and she started to cry. Jared's eyes widened."I'm so sorry. I felt the warning signs but I ignored it on purpose. Seeing Nathan hit me hard. I thought I had gotten over him. I put myself in danger. I'm so sorry," she cried. I sighed, rubbing my temples. "She was alone with Killian yesterday?" Jared asked and I nodded. "He was playing mind games with her. He came to her as Nathan." "Doesn't that mean that he captured Nathan's soul?" Jared said.Rylee began to sob harder. Rising to my feet, I went to her side and embraced her. She latched onto me, unwilling to let go. "I don't want to ever s
RYLEE His gaze was warm when I looked into his eyes, my heart fluttered at the sight."I guess all my misfortunes have become fortunes," I said with a smile on my face. Words could not describe how elated I was feeling. My self esteem had elevated and it was as a result of the feeling of holding much relevance to the pack. "You deserve it," Vincent said to me. His comment was heart warming but I was distracted by the crimson liquid oozing out of his ears. He was too pale and his eyes were filled with weariness. It was enough to cause me to panic."Vincent... your ears are..."He frowned, reaching up to touch his right ear. "Your ears are bleeding," I rasped, glancing around just in case there was some tissues lying around. Thankfully, I found one. I hurried towards it and grabbed it. Then, I rushed back to him. He appeared dizzy. Grabbing his hand, I made him sit on a chair. He closed his eyes when I started to wipe off the blood."Don't overreact, Rylee. It's probably nothing," Vi
VINCENT She was asleep in my arms, her facial features relaxed. A smile ghosted over my lips when I recalled the events that had happened the previous night. Rylee was becoming quite sly and naughty, not that I was complaining.Thinking back to the moment I'd brought her to the pack made me feel a sense of satisfaction. If she had ended up being executed, my world would have remained glum. She was the bright light that attracted me. I didn't want to admit it at first, but I was glad to have her as my mate. "What time is it?" She mumbled, burying her face against my chest. I glanced across the room, my gaze falling on the digital clock."Ten minutes past seven," I responded and she hummed."Let's sleep a little more," she groaned, keeping her arm around my torso.We remained in bed for the most part of the morning. I had to pay Ryan a visit thereafter. Rylee insisted that she wanted to come with me. But, I firmly refused her. She made me promise her that I would contact her if somethi

RYLEE "I've had this question on my mind for quite a while," Emma said as we carried the groceries we had just purchased, and placed them in the car booth. "What is it?" I asked, turning to look at her."Have your eyes always been like that?" She asked and I raised a brow."What are you talking about?""When you came to the pack house, your eyes were honey brown. Now, they're turquoise. Did you acquire magic or something?" Ava asked.I smiled, leaning against the car with my hands shoved in the pockets of my black coat. "No, I have no magic. My soul energy elevated. It's why my eyes are like this," I said and they grinned."Soul energy? That sounds cool. You said you have no magic. So, the energy is like some supernatural gift, right?" Ava said and I beamed."That's right.""I heard that you healed the pack members that were infected," Emma said and I shrugged."I just did it."Her grin widened."That's even cooler."I moved away from the car and took a deep breath. "I think we sho

RYLEE I'd always yearned for a family and a home. Returning to the Crystal River Pack is the choice that changed my life and gifted me with everything I wanted. I decided that it was time for a fresh start. "What the hell, Andy. I thought something terrible had happened to you. They suddenly moved us out of the pack house but they wouldn't give us an explanation. Besides, you stopped visiting us. Each time mum asked to see you, they didn't let her," My baby sister said, pouting at me.Mum chuckled."Don't be so dramatic, Jenny. Your sister must have had her reasons" mum said. I embraced her and closed my eyes. "I missed you so much, mum. You don't have to worry. It's all over" I said to her. She sighed and began to stroke my hair. "I missed you too, baby girl" she whispered. "You still have to tell us everything that happened, do you understand?" She said and I hummed in response, a smile tugging at my lips.After spending time with mum and Jenny, I went in search of Jar
ANDREA "Did you really it's going to be that easy? How ridiculous," the stranger said, taking another step towards us. Alpha Vincent silently moved Rylee behind him, his eyes glowing a bright red and gold. It was at this point that I put two and two together. I realized that the stranger was the demon who had tried to steal Rylee's soul energy. He had acquired a new body, it seemed."Hang in there for me, okay?" Jared whispered to me. I nodded feebly, resting my head against his back. It was taking me a lot of energy to keep myself from crashing to the ground. My head hurt too much and I could barely concentrate. "I'll kill you. This time, you won't be able to return," Vincent snarled, his fiery gaze menacing. The demon cackled and goosebumps appeared on my skin. Shivers ran down my spine and fear doubled my heart rate. "You can try. This time you're trapped. The sisters did quite a good job. They fooled you and trapped you.""What the hell do you want from us?!" Ava cried.
ANDREA None of us moved. I stood by the door, rooted to the spot. Jared had gone so still, he was barely breathing. I waited for him to give me a pathetic excuse. I waited for him to try to convince me that what I was seeing wasn't everything. Anger quickly overshadowed me when I realized that he had no intention of bringing up any excuse. It didn't make any sense. He had told me I was everything to him. Was it all a lie?"You have questions, don't you? Don't just stare at us. Go ahead, ask away" Kathryn said. My gaze met Jared's and I tightened my fists until they were pale knuckled. I could see the regret and remorse in his eyes. "Jared, get up" I said through gritted teeth. He didn't move or say anything. Kathryn let out a breathy chuckle, her fingers lightly grazing my mate's bicep. My stomach tightened as I fought the urge to lash out at her. She was taunting me. "Get your hand off him, Kathryn" I hissed. "What? Are you going to bite me?" She drawled, her eyes lit with excitem
ANDREA Groaning softly, I opened my eyes and blinked to clear the haze in my vision. My gaze met Cara's blue ones. She waved a hand in front of my face and clicked her fingers. "Can you see me?" She asked and I opened my mouth to speak. With my face contorted with pain, I brought a hand to my aching throat. It felt as though I'd swallowed grit."Water" I managed to croak with a wince. Someone else started to help me sit up. So, I looked up and saw Rylee's face. She gave me a small smile and helped me lean against the pillows while Cara poured me a glass of water."Thank you" I whispered, accepting the glass of water from her. I took a sip, swallowing as slowly as I could, wincing every few seconds."How are you feeling? Dizzy? Nauseous?" Cara questioned.I lowered the glass of water and blinked, realizing that I wasn't really feeling as terrible as before."I feel weak, that's all" I whispered.Rylee and Cara exchanged glances. Then, they turned to look at me with brilliant smiles
JARED Back and forth, I kept pacing. Jonathan and Cara were attending to Andrea while I waited restlessly. I couldn't shake off the feeling of foreboding that weighed down on me. My hands trembled as my anxiety swelled. Just before Andrea and I had made it to the infirmary, she'd suffered a seizure. It had scared the living daylights out of me. From the look on Jonathan's face when we'd arrived, I knew that Andrea's condition was worrying. Thoughts swam my mind until I thought I would go crazy. Opal was on edge as well. We couldn't stand the idea of Andrea being used and destroyed by the demon. The fact that I was completely powerless was worsening the situation. A feminine cry pierced the air and I turned towards the entrance of the hallway where a woman was being wheeled in on a stretcher. I recognized her to be Kathryn. "Hurry! She's bleeding out!" One of the women cried as they moved her past me. Kathryn had her eyes squeezed shut. With tears and sweat on her face, she c
ANDREA A smile curved my lips when I awakened to the beautiful sight of my mate's sleeping face. My smile widened at the memory of the previous night. Stifling a yawn, I rested my head on Jared's chest and listened to the steady beat of his heart. He stroked my hair and placed his arm around me. "Morning" I whispered. "Morning. How did you sleep?" Jared asked. "Nicely" I said, my cheeks warming. Jared chuckled and pressed a kiss to the top of my head. "As much as I want to stay in bed with you, all day, we have a meeting to attend" He stated, stroking my hair. I raised a brow."We?""That's right.""With Vincent?""We are meeting with Cara, Jonathan's fiancee. She said she wants to talk to us."We both got out of bed and went through our morning routine. I got dressed in a black hoodie and a pair of light blue jeans trousers. We left the house and started to head towards Jonathan's office. At the entrance of the building stood Jonathan and a blue eyed blonde with a pretty smile
ANDREA "Are they coming here, right now?" Jared asked with a calm expression on his face. "They have stepped into the territory. Some of the scouts must have encountered them by now" I told him. Taking my hand in his, he led me into the pack house and took me to Alpha Vincent's office. He knocked twice and pushed the door open. Alpha Vincent was standing by the window, his hands buried in the pockets of his black slacks. His white long sleeved shirt outlined the fact that he was fit. His hair curled up at his nape and disappeared underneath the collar of his shirt. Jared cleared his throat and walked towards him without letting go of my hand "I heard from the scouts that there have been a breach" Alpha Vincent stated, not looking away from the sky. "The shadow assassins are attacking the pack" I said. Slowly, he turned to look at me. He regarded me warily. Then, he spoke. "You mean, they're coming here to try to do what you couldn't do"....The gates burst open and a cou
ANDREA Pain pulsed within my skull and I held a hand to my temple, for a few seconds. Cracking an eye open, I found myself lying on Rylee. With unsteady hands, I pushed my upper body off her, a gasp escaping my lips when I saw the blood stains covering the left side of her face. "Rylee... your face" I breathed, petrified. She moved me off her and sat up. My eyes nearly fell out of their sockets when I saw the ruined material barely covering her torso and chest. Her forearms were stained with blood as well. Letting out a sigh, she rose to her feet and pulled her hair up into a bun. Then, she folded her arms across her chest. "Are you back to your senses now?" She asked and realization sank into me. Horrified, I stumbled backwards, away from her. "I... I... I did this?" I stammered, my eyes brimming with tears. "Not exactly. The demon was trying to kill me. I jammed my elbow into your face and knocked you out" My gaze drifted and fell on the bloodied knife lying on the ground
