Silvana ran promptly outside, her boot heels clicking as she rushed down the manor's marble steps.

Couples sat on the fountain, smoking cigars and sharing kisses. Bruce's truck was still parked.

"Bruce, where are you?" Silvana shouted into her phone. But she got only a dial tone, and the last noise she heard him make inside was a holler of pain.

She hadn't even thought Bruce capable of pain.

But where was he?

Silvana observed her surroundings. Even outside, the party raged on, and as she fluttered about searching for Bruce's mask from the crowd, she saw a bolt of crimson lightning flicker above a hedge garden and illuminate the side of a well-maintained brown barn.

She knew he was inside.

Fast as she could and clutching her wound, she moved towards the barn, past the garden of trimmed bushes to resemble men and women on all fours and howling like wolves to the starry sky above her. Silvana unhitched the wooden beam securing the barn doors shut, and she burst through the door

    Bruce lunged himself on top of Silvana, covering her body with his. Their chests touched and Bruce clamped his jaw shut and grunted as the Hellhounds clawed at his back. They nipped at Silvana's arms and legs, biting off one of her boots and tearing her stockings. They were completely surrounded by a dozen wolves surging with red lightning, and the spirit of the dreaded and murderous Cecilia Duponte cackled, "The seal has been broken."But it couldn't be. Silvana closed her eyes and screamed as she felt teeth poke little holes in her kicking legs. Her father's seal on the evil spirits had been destroyed, some way, somehow, and their worst nightmare was becoming a reality; Silvana wasn't prepared to defend herself, let alone the people of the city. All the times she skimped her training was now going to cost her the lives of herself and her lover.Her eternal mate. Then Bruce pounded his fists to the mud by her head, and when she opened her eyes, she saw that the whites of Bru

  • My Loyal Alpha   Chapter 12: Reunited

    In the two long months after the supernatural attack on the Silverclaw Masquerade, Silvana dedicated herself to her father's harsh training. In the mornings, she would bury her nose in ancient spellbooks, learning the ways of incredible witchcraft. In the afternoons, Solaris lectured on the history of seals and spirits in the city, and in the evenings Silvana practiced rigorous spells until midnight, when she was afforded five hours of rest to do it all over again the next day. She was mentally and physically exhausted, though not enough to stop her from calling Bruce each and every night to be lulled to sleep by his brave tales of fighting the spirits coming from the red lightning. Some nights, she would whisper him to sleep under the cover of her blankets --warm and hidden from the world-- about how she'd like to guide her fingers to the button of his jeans, zip his pants down, and shove his big dick in her mouth and suck. On those sensual nights, Bruce would lay naked in his

    Bruce tugged his jeans back on and ripped off his sweat-soaked tank top. He waved a finger at Silvana and said, "I'm serious. Do not move from this bed." Silvana's heart sank at the idea of being exposed to danger while not in any clothes. Bruce stormed out of the house, barefoot, and flung the front door open so hard that it slammed against the front of the house. "State your business here at my home," Bruce said so harshly that the dozen werewolves shuddered. They remained resilient and one strong woman with long, dyed-blue hair and facial piercings defiantly growled, "We've been told that our Alpha is dating some slutty, magic-casting witch."Silvana peered through the blinds over Bruce's bed and her palms started to sweat. Bruce was wildly outnumbered, and there was fury in the eyes of his pack."Such a disgusting relationship would make you unsuitable to be our leader," another werewolf chimed in, crossing his arms and standing strong. But he didn't stand as strong as Br

    Silvana was immediately comforted by Bruce's touch. She let her head fall into his chest and he stroked the sides of her head, holding her close to him and not letting go. "How did you know to come here?" she sniffled. Bruce looked to the stars. "I just knew, Silvana. I knew I needed to be beside you right this moment."She hugged him tightly and said, "I'm so glad you came. My father just hit me."Normally, Bruce would've rushed inside and crushed Solaris. But he knew his temper had been getting the better of him, and he cared more about being there for Silvana than revenge against the old man. "I'm sorry," Bruce said, gently lifting Silvana's face to his. He inspected the red mark on her cheek, and although his stomach rumbled with rage, he planted a delicate kiss right on the mark. "Walk with me, sweetheart," Bruce said, gripping Silvana's hand in his. He brought her to her feet and put his arm around her to warm her from the night's breeze. They walked intimately for a

    The smell of cooked eggs, slabs of bacon, and pan-fried potatoes startled Bruce awake. He thought such amazing food was only a dream, as the time to make such a meal was something he no longer had with all his new responsibilities. Silvana exited the bedroom bathroom with a pink toothbrush in her mouth and her strawberry-blonde hair in a messy top knot bun. She was in a lacy white nightgown and big fluffy pink slippers, and she looked refreshed and well-rested. Bruce smiled. Any remaining tension in Silvana's shoulders after his massages seemed to be gone. Bruce rubbed a knuckle to his eye and stretched widely with his big arms. "Good morning, gorgeous," he said with a massive grin. Silvana dashed back into the bathroom, rinsed her mouth, clinked her toothbrush to the sink and said, "I've got breakfast on the stove for you, handsome." She ran some water to her face, listening for Bruce to say something, but he didn't. She patted her face dry with the towel on the rack and t

    "You two are brothers?!" Amelia exclaimed, darting her head back and forth and examining the similar facial features between the two manly men. "That's right," Kurt smirked, poking a finger to Bruce's chest. " Bruce is Alpha." Kurt jabbed his thumb at his own chest and said, "And I'm Beta."Silvana could tell Bruce was containing his outrage. Kurt shrugged and said, "Two balancing halves, two equal opposites. I just happened to get the better end of the stick when it came to looks." "I didn't realize you were seeing a witch," Bruce said. "Well, it's not like we ever talk anymore, Brucie," Kurt responded, an insulting yet charming cadence carrying his words. He snuggled closer against Amelia and rubbed her arm. "It'd be pretty hypocritical of me to rat you out to the council and pack for dating a witch, now wouldn't it?" Silvana had heard how Kurt had acted outside of Bruce's house with the intimidating pack. She still couldn't shake the feeling that he was up to no good

    A few days later, Kurt told Amelia to pack a bag for a weekend vacation. "Make sure you pack one of those cheeky swimsuits I got you," he said over the phone, his voice smooth and sensual. He was being cagey about the details, but Amelia didn't need any justification for a getaway with her lover, especially if it meant she got to give all her new bikinis a spin. With the election for Guardian Witch approaching, it was all anybody in her family spoke about, and she was so tired of listening to people say that a werewolf would be crowned Guardian this year. She knew Solaris would pass the title to Silvana, just as tradition would have it, and Amelia wanted no business in the political quarreling that swept every dinner table or afternoon tea chat. All Amelia wanted was to have fun, and the constant calls from Silvana were making that tough. Amelia loaded bags into the trunk of her car. She pressed her phone to her ear with her shoulder."Please Amelia," Silvana said, "if you s

    Silvana banged on Bruce's front door.The lights were off in the house, and she shouted, "Bruce?! Kurt? Please open up. It's me."Tears laced her eyes, and as she continued to pound her fist to the door, she clenched her father's mysterious journal with her other hand. If what she had read was true, then she didn't have much time."Bruce, please!" Silvana sobbed. After knocking on the front door and throwing stones at each window of the dark house, Silvana crumpled to the grassy floor beside dead leaves, and she cried loudly to herself, grasping her father's journal and screaming out in despair.She called Bruce, then Amelia, both over and over, until she had no battery left, and her phone simply died. ************************Back at her house, Solaris entered the cellar, taking each step slowly with his cane. Inside and restrained on a metal table with thick straps was a struggling man with a white sheet over him. His hands, chest, and legs were clamped into place with mas

    A cooling, tropical breeze blew the leaves of the palm trees overhead, and Silvana stuck her toes in the warm sand as the sun beat down on her. Waves slapped the shoreline several feet ahead of her, and she reclined into her comfy beach chair. "I can't tell you all how happy I am," she said, "to be away from the snow and the cold." She sipped from a giant margarita that had been put inside a hollowed-out coconut with a large pink straw. "I'll stick to the shade," the pale Angus said, hiding underneath the large, canopy-style leaves from the trees. He was working shirtless at a grill, spreading out lemon slices on top of freshly caught fish. "Oh my god," Amelia said, a cocktail shaker in her hands. "Can you imagine my big Angus with a tan?" Angus peppered some potato salad, laughed, and said, "You all enjoy the sun. I'm hot enough as is at the grill. Amelia pulled down her oversized purple sunglasses, observed Angus's tight rows of abs and murmured, "Hot is right."She gave

    Months later, big bells of silver adorned with blue ribbons rang loudly in the newly refurbished Silverclaw mansion. The mansion was owned technically by the silverclaw kin, but it had become a retreat for vampire, werewolf, and witch alike, and certainly required the aid and unique talent of the three separate species to be rekindled to a state beyond its former glory. Down the winding aisles of mixed company and standing at what had once been a court podium but had since been remodeled into an altar, Bruce stood tall and handsome, his chest out, ready and waiting in a dapper black tuxedo with a black bow tie. His messy brown hair had been cut and trimmed, and his face was clean shaven. He stood with a large smile on his face, though truly he was starting to get worried. Bruce glanced at his silver-strapped watch, then looked out into the stone benches filled with people casually chatting. A firm, supportive hand pressed against the top of his back. "Quit checking that thing,

    Solaris grabbed the vampire's wrist and stopped her sword from decapitating Duponte. "This woman," Solaris said very seriously, "Is not the same demon who has caused us all great strife." "You speak nonsense, old man!" the werewolf next to the vampire roared. His claws dripped with Duponte's blood, staining the snow at his hind legs red. "Just because you do not have the strength to finish her does not mean I won't.""Stand down," Bruce said with a chill to his voice. He and Silvana ran over. Silvana knelt and observed Duponte's wounds. "They're bad, but she'll live," she determined. "This woman here is my family," Solaris confirmed to the werewolf and vampire, who looked dubiously at one another. "Any ill intent has been removed from her because of these two talented," Solaris paused for a moment, then addressed both Silvana and Bruce as he said, "children of mine."Bruce smirked, as he'd finally gotten the approval of the father of the woman he loved. On the snowy floor,

    Bruce reverted from his massive werewolf form and back into his regular human body. His waist was covered by only the fragments of torn jeans that remained from his transformation, and he and Silvana both smirked to one another, both privy to what needed to be done now that Duponte had revealed her true form, and as the demonic energy continued to corrupt her. "You'll never be strong enough to fight me like that," Duponte angrily hissed at Bruce. Her arms grew thin and long and skeletal. Lightning whipped all around her. "I don't plan on fighting you," Bruce replied calmly and in complete control. He took Silvana's hand. "Are you ready?" he asked her. "Always," Silvana said with a smile that confused and angered Duponte. How were these two so calm in the face of her? It infuriated Duponte, and she unleashed a fierce, howling wheeze. But the truth was, Silvana and Bruce were privy to secrets that Cecilia Duponte were unaware of. It had all been inside of Solaris's journal, w

    "Don't you see," Duponte said to Silvana with outraised, welcoming arms, "That I'm not your enemy."Duponte pointed to the goopy mess that was the remains of Kurt. "He, now he, was your enemy. He wanted nothing more but your blood and your father's blood."Getting even closer, Duponte pounded a palm to her chest and continued, "I, your family, want you to thrive." Silvana breathed deeply at the sight of the horrible fate that had befallen Kurt. Her heart was heavy with guilt, and for all the troubles that Kurt's mischief and sin had caused her, she still felt a sense of regret that she was not able to save him when he was in a state of delusion and pain. She stepped away from a small collection of bright orange sludge oozing towards her. Kurt hadn't been a good or decent man, but he didn't exactly deserve this. "Don't feel sympathy for this beast," Duponte said, as if reading Silvana's mind, or perhaps her crestfallen face. "Feel sympathy for your mother, for her sacrifice. For

    Though Kurt's roars were strong enough to topple over trees still standing in the forest, Silvana and Duponte both stood their ground as the beast hollered. The rest of those still alive, Solaris, Angus, Amelia, and Bruce were all left frozen by Duponte's unwavering magic. Orange sludge dripped down from the blistering welts lacing Kurt's silver and black furred hide. His once amber eyes flared with the same bright, unhealthy orange. "What the hell happened to him?" Silvana asked. Duponte looked at Kurt with absolute and unequivocal disgust.She said, "He's tried, rather unsuccessfully, to enhance himself with the blood of a witch."With a tilt of her head and sniff from her nose, Duponte inspected Kurt. "Our blood, Silvana, no less, is what he's taken" she sneered. "From your father. And look at what it's done to the mongrel." Kurt howled with a raspy, unearthly voice, and driblets of orange saliva flew from his infected and rotting fangs, leaving behind acidic and flaming

    Duponte walked forward leaving fiery steps behind her. A curtain of black and red lightning crackled around her skin, and her smile was both wicked and wide, as if all of Silvana's efforts were nothing more but mere entertainment. Silvana, though, could barely move; she tried to bring herself from her knee to no avail, and with one eye shut and the other squinted, she hazily watched as Duponte smacked away Bruce and Amelia, sending the two barreling into the forest. As much as she wanted to retaliate, Silvana was depleted of energy, and sealing the spirits away had drained her of any remaining magic. Duponte clutched Silvana's face with a single hand, and Silvana felt a burning that was completely unique and unlike anything she ever experienced. The pain was not like when she burned her hands ripping the bindings off of Bruce's arms when he was in her father's basement, but the burning caused by Duponte's touch was raw, unnerving, and rattled her from head to toe. Duponte glared

    A flurry of crimson lightning slammed into the blue sigil left behind by Solaris and the witches, fracturing the very ground itself. Solaris reached out a hand to his daughter and shouted, "Silvana!" But it was too late. Silvana was struck with a bolt of lightning before Bruce or Amelia could do anything to stop it. Her body flew into a tree that splintered into sawdust from the impact. "No!" Bruce yelled, running over. Cecilia Duponte's laughter could be heard taunting them from the reddened skies. Bruce charged over to where Silvana had landed but was stopped by the bursting of the witches' sigil. Blue sparks surrounded him though not as fast as the hundreds of hands belonging to the once-sealed spirits. They dragged him into the dark abyss as he thrashed and roared. Solaris did what he could to repel the forces, though in truth it was little. His magic couldn't protect everybody, and spirits twice as strong and large as before, bigger than the tallest trees in the fo

    The forces all paused outside of The Forest of the Damned, taking in the thick air that smelled rotten. Most of the trees were dead, black and gray husks ready to teeter over at the next sharp wind, and the few large pines that stood firmly had branches that drooped like wilting flowers, as if the very bark had been poisoned. Lightning roared above the mess of long-dead trees, but it wasn't anything new to Bruce and Silvana, who had been fighting these evils since they had returned. What hit them both differently, though, was that ghastly, heavy air, and with each breath they took it was like swallowing toxins. Everybody felt it, from the witches to the werewolves to the vampires. It was a smell of sour blood that tainted the very grass beneath the snow they all stepped on. Angus held a hand before his mouth and tried not to cough in front of Amelia for fear of seeming weak, but as he plugged his nose, she turned away and hacked into her folded elbow. Even Solaris struggled t
