I plan to have the party on june 22/23/24. 12 wonderful authors with some neat bookish giveaways. See you there?
Gabriel's POV “Fuck...fuck FUCK!” I roared out, punching a dent into the side of my car once I realized that Evelina no longer slept soundly inside. “She escaped!”Amaya was still dealing with those stupid witches. I gave them the money. Now it was time for negotiations. I hated witches. Except for
With a snarl, I leapt onto the warlock, digging my claws into his shoulders and chest. He screamed in pain and fury as I bit down onto the warlock’s wrist, ripping his hand away from his limb. I felt the bone crunching beneath my teeth, primal satisfaction coursing through me. This. was the same han
Evelina's POV“I found it inside the cave,” I muttered, shifting in the backseat as I answered Amaya’s question.I didn’t know how to explain it. But something had called to me. This box…was mine. And something told me to keep it safe until I could get it to my tia Melanie. My hand ran over the circ
I felt so out of place, like an intruder in this world of seduction and shadows. I couldn’t help but jump when Gabriel’s hand clamped over mine.His grip tightened as he pulled me along and we made our way through the dimly lit club, the faint scent of perfume and alcohol filling the air. Music poun
Gabriel sat me down so that my back was now to Vin, and then he took a seat behind his desk where he picked up an important-looking document.“Have you found a new replacement for the capo I killed?” Gabriel asked lightly, as if he was asking about the weather.“Ahh…yes I did. He should be here soon
Gabriel's POVMy business with the new capo took longer than I’d anticipated. I couldn’t help how wound up I was. Fuck what was Evelina doing to me? Usually, I wouldn’t have batted an eye and let Vin have his fun. But the very real possibility of Evelina getting a look at another man’s dick made me
“Gabe, how’d the meeting go?” Vincent’s tone was cautious.Good motherfucker, be afraid of me. And don’t get too close to my mate.“Well enough. Let’s go Evelina. We’re leaving,” I said more harshly than I’d intended.There was a delay in her reaction. I took in the spark of rebellion in her eye. Sh
Flabbergasted, I froze. Evelina’s lips parted in shock, her cheeks flamed from embarrassment.The deep gurgling grew louder and more desperate. She shifted in her seat, trying to hide the very audible sounds of her hunger.My eyebrows furrowed together in consternation.“You’re hungry,” I stated, my
“Your turn!” I called. “This is going to be easy for you, mi vida.” I knew the missing planks were there—places I’d nearly stepped into myself. “You already saw—” but I stopped speaking when I saw the mist begin to swirl furiously in front of my very eyes, covering the entire bridge in a shroud of d
**Gabe’s POV** I stood at the edge of the ancient bridge, dark mists around us, as my heart pounded against my ribcage. I looked down into the thick mist swirling around the chasm below. There was nothing but darkness under the bridge. The bridge stretched out in front of us, its wooden planks worn
"Here lay the knights of the Order, tasked with protecting the Sacred Flame," Sister Agnes explained. I stared at the tombs, realizing that there was much more to the story of the Sacred Flame than was told in the book. We were missing a key piece of information. Why would the Sacred Flame need pr
**Evelina's POV** Standing before us was Sister Agnes, a smile on her face. She did not seem at all threatened by or afraid of Gabe. “I knew you would come! I knew I would see you again!” she crowed excitedly, taking a step forward. Gabe let out another vicious snarl. I looked at Sister Agnes a
I took a step back arching a brow. “Tell me why we’re here, “ I insisted. Gabe sighed, before looking at me with resignation. “We’re here to find the witch of Avalon and obtain the Sacred Flame,” he relented, making the pit of my stomacch drop. Could I, a witch that held a part of Lilith inside
Suddenly, I felt the darkness curling around me. Trying to take control while I was in the throes of ecstasy. “Control it, mi vida. Master it,” Gabe urged, sensing what was going on. "Yes," I moaned, feeling the familiar sensation building inside me. "I am more than just the darkness." I arched
**Evelina's POV** Gabe leaned in closer, his eyes filled with raw hunger, and my heart pounded in my chest. I didn't need the mate bond to tell me what the look in his eyes meant. He was turned on. Which was surprising to say the least. “You…aren’t grossed out?” I queried warily. A huff of laug
“It’s getting easier to control it,'“I whispered sleepily. “It’s almost like…it’s merging with me rather than fighting against me now. I can feel its power….I can feel the sinister intent. But I can also cut through it and maybe harness the demonic energy.” I couldn’t help my eyes dropping shut as I
I took in a deep breath, feeling the tension slowly release from my body as I trusted Gabe's words. I concentrated on his presence around me and the tranquil effects of the hot water as it enveloped me, removing all the stress and exhaustion from my bones. It was then that I felt a sudden calmness s
