**Evelina's POV**“Probably one of the witches from the roof,” Vincent supplied. “They were aiming for you.”Gabe distinctly muttered under his breath that the attack had come from behind. He looked at Amaya again with…was it suspicion? I hoped not.“If I hadn’t gotten there in time, they might’ve d
There, laying just inside the entrance door, was my papa, an empty bottle of alcohol tucked into his side as he lay passed out.“Who got him alcohol!” Gabe roared.All of the men exchanged uneasy looks.“He snuck out to the bar when we were busy trying to pick up a trail on the witches,” Luca explai
***“I got in touch with Alpha Lorenzo’s beta as well, just like you instructed.” Vincent’s words pulled me from my musings.We were on a jet. Gabriel must have plenty of these if one exploded two days ago and he already had another one available for us to travel on. Papa was snoozing peacefully, hi
***Evelina’s POV ***Stepping out of the limo, my eyes soaked in the beautiful city around me.All around me was a fusion of modern minimalism and medieval grandeur. I’d travelled extensively before. But I’d never been to Spain. And I’d never seen a city quite like Barcelona. The beautiful skyline,
I gazed up at him, those words settling deep into my heart. I was tempted to close the gap. Tempted to push my lips against his and give into this damn attraction screaming to be acknowledged.The elevator doors sliding open brought me back to reality, and I hastily turned my face away from him. His
**Evelina's POV** The significance of what he wanted was not lost on me. He wanted me to meet the alphas with him. Like we were equals. Partners.“Can you tell me a little about them?” I finally asked, realizing that even if I left him humiliated, I would do my best to play the role he asked of me.
“I don’t know... maybe…,” Gabriel finally assented, inclining his head slightly. “If I was assured of your happiness. I installed my men around your university…I’ve had men following you since…” His eyes remained steady on the far-off crashing waves. “I know you were single for a time…” He let out a
**Gabe’s POV ** Maybe it was being back in my home country, but I felt myself in lighter spirits. My mate was here where she was supposed to be. Briefly, I recalled my previous decision to set her up here in this very penthouse. What a fool I’d been. There was no way I could leave Evelina here. Eve
Asmodeus bowed his head.“I have commanded them to fall back and have begun to seal the portal. They will be sucked back into the portal at the devil’s sinkhole.”And that was when I saw him clinging to a lone tree left standing in the wake of the chaos that this mountain had endured. His arms were
With a surge of power, I launched myself at the fallen demon, my hands glowing with a brilliant golden light I was airborne, my ring of fire remaining around me, eager to attack at my command. As my fist struck him, the power of my assault sent Asmodeus flying backward.But my victory was short-live
Despite the fear that seethed within me, I stood tall and threw back my head, letting out a war cry that echoed throughout the night. "I don't care who you are or what you think you are," I retorted, my voice trembling with determination. "All I know is that you've hurt the people I love, and I will
“NOOOOOOO!!!!” I screamed out, the bright yellow light rippling all around me as I screamed my heartbreak. My father was gone! Hot tears rolled down my cheeks as I clung to him, crying out in anguish.I would give anything for his warm embrace one last time! Anything. In his shadow, I had always fel
**Evelina’s POV**“You are fucking dead, PENDEJO!” Gabe roared out, moving to run after Joel.My hands shook as I held Dad to me. The man who had raised me. The man who had given me his unconditional love even when I most likely did not deserve it for defying him at every turn. My teen years had not
I felt his body convulse once, then twice, and then, finally, I tore through his neck, severing his head from his body.The demonic head soared through the air and landed at my mate’s feet across the room. I looked at her, seeing the dark shadows wrapping around her. But her eyes, her eyes were her
And then, in an instant, I felt it. Like a swarm of slimy serpents, shadows crawled up my legs and began to rattle the chains that held me. I looked around sensing the air pulsing with demonic energy. But its malicious intent was not geared towards me.“What the fuck?!” Axton yelled as the demonic s
“I’m sorry I failed you. My love wasn’t enough to change you,” Syra sobbed as the light around them grew brighter.Sarah struggled against her, eyes wide in shock. But somehow, Syra held firm, tears flowing down her face.“Let’s end this, forever,” Syra whispered. “Now you cannot let more demons int
He collapsed onto the floor, his knees hitting the ground with a dull thud. His bewildered gaze searched for her in confusion. I was frozen in shock, watching as shadows slithered around him, tendrils reaching for his skin like an embrace from the depths of hell. With a gut-wrenching scream, he hunc
