Carefully, I began to search the apartment, starting in the kitchen and making my way towards the room I knew my mate shared with the pathetic excuse for a human being. I needed to search for cameras. Needed to make sure there was no live recording streaming to some unknown sick man’s home. Luca sai
I didn’t even blink before I fired off my gun, not letting him finish that sentence. Robert screamed like a girl as the bullet went out his hipbone. Fuck. I was supposed to shoot his dick off! The same dick that had been inside my mate and fucked her, albeit poorly. But still. He’d been inside of he
**Gabe’s POV**I woke up the next morning to an empty bed. Well, that had never happened before. I’d done my best to make Evelina feel better, to make her realize none of this was her fault. At some point,she’d managed to remove our clothes and asked me to do exactly what I’d told Robert I’d do. So
Evelina gave me a wry, sardonic look. “Of,course you didn’t. You just thought I was a baby maker. Not an actual person with any sort of skills.” The words stabbed me in the chest like a dagger. I opened my mouth to respond, but no words came out. I couldn’t deny it. She was right. I’d been an idiot
“Evelina,” I began comfortingly, my hands running up and down her arms. “I will never force you to do something you truly don’t want. But how long are you going to run from what you truly are? I’m here with you, and we’re going to face any problems you encounter together. You won’t be in it alone.”
However, with Evelina, it was completely different. With her, it felt natural to share my worries. “We can take my car,” I grunted, grabbing my keys and motioning for her to step outside. Evelina smiled. “If I didn’t have wards preventing portals inside pack lands, I could have portalled us,” she
**Gabe’s POV** Evelina paced the length of my study as I stood regarding her. I could feel how wound up she was through the mate bond. “Calm down, Evelina,” I finally said in an exasperated sigh, crossing my arms. “Calm down? They’ve got your entire pack surrounded and my dad is ready to fight to
Sinclair’s eyes flashed yellow. “I’m going to rip your head off,” he growled, canines elongated and he prepared to shift. “You think you can fucking kidnap my daughter and get away with it?” “Dad stop!” Evelina yelled, suddenly moving towards us. “Evelina stay back!” I said sharply, reprimanding
Lorenzo looked quickly at Raina again. “I would never take my child away from his mother. Do you really think so little of me? Or did you just want to stay the mistress of Diablo?” He glowered at Raina. “I was never good enough for you, was I? Which is why you didn’t want to take up the position as
**Gabe’s POV** I would have loved to say we lived happily ever after. Like in the books and fairytales. But unfortunately, real life was not like that. How could we live happily ever after after losing so many people? Vin was gone. Alpha Xavier was too. And so were countless of the best warriors an
Everyone bowed their heads in the clearing of the moon goddesses temple. I wiped the tears from my eyes. We had lost many good people in the war against demons. But Uncle Tony was right, their legacy would live on with us. We would never forget how bravely they fought. Claire, Aunt Alyssa and Uncl
Still, I reached out a hand, hoping to do something. But when I tried to heal him, even I could tell it was useless. There was nothing left to heal. He was gone. Cellular regeneration could only happen if the body was still alive. “No,” Uncle Dylan rasped, reaching us in the hospital room. “No. Not
**Evelina’s POV** Uncle Xavier had always been the leader. The one everyone looked to for guidance. He had stepped up for his younger siblings when his father passed away. He was only eighteen then. By extension, he had stepped up for the children of his siblings as well. Tia Melanie told me that
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
