Narrator-

Dillon sighed and removed his back from the wall, then he headed to the closet just as Elaine had instructed. When he walked through the doorway, to his surprise, an entire half of Elaine's closet had now become dedicated to manly clothing, fitting his size exactly. From jeans, joggers, to polo shirts and leather jackets.

Sitting above the rack which held the hangers, were boxes of shoes and folded towels. Dillon frowned at the entire set up and gulped while sending a look over his shoulder. He wanted to smile at the gesture but couldn't bring himself to do so. Falling for Elaine, even with her evil tendencies was one issue, the other was surviving. Dillon didn't think he'd survive belonging to Elaine. She was as explosive as she was deadly. When he had looked into her eyes, he saw no sign of humanity, just empty, angry darkness

  • Out of the Ashes   Chapter 29

    Narrator- Miranda was startled awake by the sound of a slamming door. She released a gasp and her eyelids snapped open. Her neck was turned to the left, as she laid on her back. Miranda blinked, her chest instantly panting from the unexpected awakening. She noticed the pillowcases and her brain immediately registered his scent through her nostrils. The hairs of her skin quickly erected, and Miranda painfully swallowed a ball of saliva down her dry throat. Asher was in the room. Miranda could tell. Something about the way her stomach knotted, and her lungs only breathed faster and faster told her so. He was staring too. The goosebumps on her panting chest told her as much. Miranda gulped again and she drew in a breath before mustering up the courage to turn her neck in the direction of the door, and lo and behold, Asher stood there, shirtless, with only a pair of sweatpants hanging around his hips. His chest and hair were dampened with sweat, and the image only made Miranda feel mor

    Miranda- I turned my head towards the door when I heard a key insert into the lock, and it clicked out of place. I watched the handle turn, while I was still on my back with my hands folded on my stomach. Anise had disappeared from sight, and I gulped while waiting for whoever was on the other side of the door. When the door was pushed open, I noticed it was Joshua, and I couldn't help the relieved sigh that pushed past my nostrils at the sight of him. He smiled at my reaction, and I noticed he had a tray in his hands. "I can't tell if you're relieved to see me or the food." He said with a friendly smile. I smiled too. "Let's just say both." I admitted. I waited for him to place the tray down, then he walked back to me and lent me a hand. I grabbed his palm and as soon as my fingers closed around his hand, he hoisted me off the floor so swiftly, my face, neck and chest smacked into his torso. "Woah there." He said, and he embraced my waist to help me get steady. I blushed and

    Narrator-Miranda stared into Asher's dark orbs, and she shyly pulled her bottom lip into her mouth before she got an idea."I'll fix it," she began to speak while she kept her gaze steady on his eyes, "if you let Asher back in control."Asher frowned, his dark pupils becoming angry, but Miranda didn't falter in her resolution. She had kept Asher's explanation from this morning in her mind. Whenever tensions were high, Asher's wolf would take control, but if she could always get Asher back even when he was emotional, maybe this would be easier for them both.Asher growled in Miranda's face, and she blinked quickly, but tried to appear calm. Asher's eyebrows relaxed just slightly when he realized that Miranda wouldn't budge in her demand, then finally his vision began to clear.Miranda watched in silence as Asher's pupils lightened from black to brown, until they were clear, and their golden rims were back to their original color.Asher looked at Miranda and he sighed and gulped softly.

    Narrator- The brunette victim stared up at the dark-eyed vampire and predator, while her breasts pumped up and down with anxious pants. Her tongue resembled a dried out fleshy map resting at the bottom of her jaw. The lines of her vocal had run drier than a ravine in Arizona in the summer, and her heart constantly dented the lining of her ribcage. "Wh-what do you mean?" She managed to ask after a moment. George smiled as he watched her lips move with the question. George drew in a deep inhale through the hairs of his nares, then he lowered himself before the woman. He stared deeply into her olive globes and loved the panic which filled her pupils. "What's your name?" George posed. The woman blinked fast and multiple times. "Vi-Violet." She stuttered. "Mmh." George hummed, before he lifted a cold hand to pet Violet's hairline. His fingers brushed over her forehead, down the line of her nose, and over her lips. His index finger pressed and pulled her bottom lip downwards, causin

    Narrator- "You have to help me get out of here." Miranda stated, while rushing to pack up her personal belongings after taking a quick shower and dressing for the day. Anise sat on the bed, her hand petting the side on which Asher loved to sleep on. "Well, it is early morning, which means that both vampires and rogues are sleeping, making the forest relatively safe for you to escape." Anise explained, while frowning softly. "Exactly. So how do I get out of here?" Miranda wondered, while gathering her hair in her palms, before tying them above her skull in a ponytail. Miranda was too busy packing up to notice the forlorn visage which took over Anise's facial features. The once lively Luna now suffered phantom pains in her chest, as if her heart had been cut out, and yet her brain didn't understand that, and it all had to do with the way Asher looked at Miranda earlier. Anise knew it was selfish of her to change gears now and get Miranda as far away from Asher as possible, and yet t

    Narrator- Miranda tensed in Asher's lap and aimed to remove herself from his anatomy. However the Alpha had other plans. He placed an arm around her waist and pushed her pelvis against his own seated form. "Asher-" Miranda blurted out while trying to push herself off him, "let me go." "No, there's something I need to say." Asher answered coolly. "Okay, you can tell me while I'm standing." Miranda continued with her struggling. She pushed her elbows against his chest and side and squirmed in hopes of slipping free. "You've never sat on a man before, have you?" Asher quizzed, his physique getting excited beneath the squirming weight of the human girl. "Does it matter?" Miranda asked, now winded. "Yes. Stop moving." Asher warned her, but Miranda had other plans. "Asher, let me go." "Stop." Asher said sharply, and his voice was enough to turn Miranda into stone. Miranda breathed excitedly, a result of her exhausting attempt to free herself from Asher's strong hold, like a mosqui

    Narrator-As the hours of the day escaped into eternity, Asher couldn't help but entertain himself with the idea of having a relationship with Miranda. The Alpha often excused himself from his laptop, only to study the human girl while she sat on his bed and focused on her recipes.The Alpha admired her quirks and strange habits. When lost in her work, Miranda picked at her physique in the strangest ways. She bit the corners of her nails and picked at her cuticles. When she'd tire herself from that, she'd then crack her knuckles and roll her neck to release the pressure built around her cervical spine, then she'd proceed to bite the inner lining of her mouth.Around the mid-day hours, Miranda opted for a nap. As she slept soundly, Asher chanced to take a seat near her sleeping form. Miranda was lying on her back with her hand resting on her stomach. Her knees were pulled close, her neck turned to the left. Her hair had fallen slightly on her face.The Alpha carefully removed the hair

Joshua asked Asher while taking a seat.Asher frowned slightly, "what do you mean?""I'm running out of places to hide her. Deidran came by to your room earlier looking for you and he found her." Joshua explained while looking at the Alpha."Why would he do that when he's the one who escorted Ben and May to my office?" Asher posed."My thoughts exactly," Joshua nodded, "You know how Deidran is, he's pissed that we left him out when we brought Miranda over.""Intimidating her is not going to make it any better." Asher analyzed."So what do we do?" Joshua wondered."I don't know." Asher sighed an

    Narrator-"You FOOLS!" Damien boomed while standing behind his desk and leaning on his forearms.The bald, pale vampire twins sat on the chairs facing the Mayor's desk. The one who sat to the right had his arms crossed and a blank look in his sunken eyes. His cheeks held no color, and the corners of his lips were slightly downturned, as if over the conversation like a teenager being scolded for lying.The twin who sat on the left picked at his long black nails, and grinded his teeth, which were darkened with thick black plaques at the root of his gums."You let her get away." Damien accused with a low tone which hardly matched the deadly and dangerous glint in his slit-like eyes."She didn't lose her Were abilities, even after all these years." The Right Twin said."That is still not an excuse," Damien counterargued sharply, making the twin blink and roll his eyeballs all at once, "I hired you for a job. Not to scale walls and cause property damage.""We'll catch her eventually. She c
