I still tasted her blood on my lips, was embarrassed for the first time in a century when Alex glanced up from his spot at the kitchen table to see me licking my lips like I'd just devoured the poor girl.
He shook his head. "Been that long, huh?"
"Alex…" I closed my eyes and prayed for patience. "…remind me why I let you live here?"
"I'm good-looking," he answered simply. "Besides, I'm a hell of a fighter — scrappy, I think is how you define my kind. You need me."
"Stop." I pressed my fingertips to my temples and rubbed. The ache to have her had consumed me so much that I'd run down the stairs moving so fast I'd nearly collided with a wall, and grabbed blood from the fridge.
I didn't need it.
But I craved it.
And if I didn't drink the donated blood, I sure as hell was going to drain her and enjoyed very last drop.
"I wonder…" Alex's voice pierced my thoughts. "What's it like?" He leaned forward. "Having to learn self-contro

GenesisWords didn't have power, right? They were just words, strung together in sentences, big scary sentences that had me shaking. I wondered when or if the fear would ever leave.I stared at the fruit on the table, not in the least bit hungry."I can't just…" I found my voice and glanced up at Ethan. "I can't just sit around trapped in this house away from the world. It would be like prison.""A beautiful prison." Ethan smiled.I chose not to smile back. I didn't want to encourage him or encourage my body to lean any closer to his. His body was like a magnet, even if I fought against the pull — I still couldn't help it. I found myself inching my chair closer. When it scraped against the floor, everyone smirked but Ethan.He seemed angry.Angry, yet he'd been the one to do that to me."I don't care," I said, ignoring the thumping of my heart in my chest and the fact that the closer I got to him the more it raced. "I can't just sit ar

GenesisI didn't see Ethan the rest of the day. Stephanie tried to distract me with reality TV. It worked for a while, and then I'd gotten restless again. It wasn't that I was worried about him or anything. I just wanted to know that Cassius hadn't removed Ethan's head from his body. When I'd asked Alex about them fighting, he'd simply rolled his eyes and started talking about the Gathering that evening.The women.The lights.The dancing.But mostly the women.It was time to go, and Ethan still wasn't there. I fidgeted with my dress, hoping it would please him and hating myself that it was even an issue. Why would I care? He'd rejected me over and over again only to offer me comfort and then reject me again. He made absolutely no sense, and in my current emotional state, I really desperately needed something to make sense.Next to Stephanie, I felt like the ugly friend. The one you took with you and forced your brother or cousin to dance wi

Genesis He kissed me like a man dying of thirst — and maybe he was, maybe it was my blood. Was it wrong to hope it was my smile? Maybe even my dress? I played with the beautiful silk fabric, waiting for Ethan to acknowledge the kissing — or at least part of what Cassius had alluded to. When the silence stretched the entire ride home, disappointment stabbed me in the chest. We reached the house. He pulled the car up to the massive gate; it opened. Still nothing. He turned off the car and reached for the door when I blurted, "Do you hate me?" His hand froze on the car door; in fact, his entire body froze. My heart picked up speed. I knew he could hear it, but there was nothing I could do about the effect he had on me. "No…" His voice was low, almost a growl. "I could never hate you." "I'm sorry…" Tears stung the back of my eyes. "…for whatever I did. I'm sorry you were forced to protect me when you didn't want to." "You

Ethan"So…" Alex grinned over his cup of coffee. "How was your evening?""It's too early," I growled. My body was still on fire. Sleep had been hell — or maybe heaven? Vampires still needed sleep, regardless of what silly books and movies said, and I'd gotten absolutely none.Every breath she took I took with her, soaking her in, feeling her body move against mine. It was pure torture.The human moaned.She moaned! In her sleep! And clung to me like I was her lifeline. I hadn't felt that complete in a long time and didn't realize how hungry I was for that sort of affection until she freely gave it. Then again, she had been sleeping while I watched her."You're eyes are glowing," Alex mused."Why are you up? Didn't you take a woman home last night?" I desperately needed a subject change if I was going to make it through the rest of the morning with Genesis, teaching her, rubbing against her, smelling her. I nearly broke the mug in my hand jus

EthanI paced in the study like someone who'd just drunk an entire pot of coffee and needed to work it out of his system.All I tasted was her.Her blood was still on my tongue — on my lips — and her memories, the ones that came with her blood — the ones that came at the price of me sharing my own — were so horrific I'd checked my watch at least five times to see if I'd make it across town and back without her knowing.I wanted to murder her mother.And the rest of the humans she'd been studying with.Yes, secrecy was necessary, but to force the humans to think so little about themselves — especially Genesis — was criminal.She was nearing. I could smell her.Two footsteps and she'd be in the room.And I'd probably lose my mind with the madness that always came with her scent."Nice study." Her voice was husky, dripping with seduction without even trying.I broke the pencil in my hand and dropped it to the ground, tur

Genesis"I've been here before," I blurted when Ethan pulled up to a downtown book shop around fifteen minutes from his house. It was one of my favorites. It had the best scones in the world, and the coffee was well-known in the area. "It's called Wolf's.""Funny, right?" Ethan smirked.I rolled my eyes and got out of the car. Did that mean I'd met the owner before? The bookstore wasn't huge like a Barnes and Noble, but it was big enough that it had two levels and multiple employees.The bell on the door chimed as Ethan opened it and ushered me in. The smell of books was so familiar my knees almost gave way."Ethan." A man who looked like he was around my age smiled in our direction and made his way toward us. He seemed younger than Mason even; he had the same shaggy hair and really dark brown eyes — almost black. "So this is… Genesis.""Hi." I waved awkwardly, unsure of how I was supposed to address him since, technically, nobody knew what he was

EthanHer eyes were green.Just like mine.I felt her emotions like they were my own — relived the entire thing as if I was killing Ara all over again.She'd done the unthinkable. She'd not only lied to her mate but cheated on him and produced a child with that lie. I knew Genesis wouldn't understand. But I also knew trying to get her to understand while she was still trembling from shock wouldn't do any good."You didn't have to kill her." Genesis's voice was hollow, her eyes still blazing green."I did." I touched my forehead to hers. "Because if I didn't, Cassius would have.""She slept with Cassius?""He never said." I sighed. "He never admitted it. The child was — not normal.""Not normal?""She wasn't a vampire.""What was she?""I don't know," I whispered. "Perhaps I'll never know — maybe that was Cassius's way of protecting me, of protecting my bloodline, my reputation, though it hardly mattered once eve

Lily refused to believe all their secret kissing sessions meant nothing to him."Hey wait!" she shouted jogging down the dirt driveway after Bobby. He stopped and turned to face her. "That's it. You're just leaving?" she asked angrily."Yes I am. I'm not dying for this shit. If you are smart you'd leave too" He replied casually. Lily placed her hand on her hip."What about me? About us?" She questioned steeping closer."Get real, there is no us. I mean come on the making out was ok but I only did it because my options were limited and I knew you wanted me" He arrogantly gloated. Lily slapped him hard across the face. The

Pain Of Rejection.Cassius PovBeing locked in a dark cell for two days was not something Cassius was not used to. He is a prince and princes should never be treated this way. It made him angry! More than angry but furious.How could my father do this to me ? Cassius thought.It was bad enough Ferox killed Acacia but locking him up for defending his mate was beyond unnecessary. Cassius couldn't do anything to save his mother but he would do something to save Ana."Fuck! I need to get out of this cage!" he yelled pulling on the bars for the hundredth time. It was no use. These cells were built especially to keep vampires trapped inside."I see you've settled in nicely my prince" Raven said popping up outside his prison right before his eyes.

He Is The OneAna Pov"Seb?" I say again hesitantly.The wolf stops licking and slowly nods its massive head. I slap my hand to my mouth to keep the scream in. Oh my goodness! Seb's a wolf! How did this happen? As I continue to look into his eyes I realize he doesn't look upset. His silver tail is gently wagging as he continues to patiently watch me."Can you change back?" I ask. This is such a blow to my mind that Seb is actually a werewolf! I wonder how all this happened? And when? Seb's ears perked up and he tilted his head to the side curiously. The act was so adorable I couldn't help but smile.Maybe he can't change back and is stuck this way . The thought breaks my heart and I can't help but reach out and comfort him. My hand caresses the side of his jaw. The fur is so soft I could rub it forever.

Marie PovIn a matter of seconds, everything changed. The brother I grew up with was no more...Everyone watched speechless as Seb disappeared right before their eyes. The sound he was making was anything but human. Marie thought it reminded her of a lion but deeper. So deep in fact that she could feel it in her own chest."What do you mean roar of the wolf?" She questioned Helia"I mean that your brother is very special. Just watch" The crone replied.Marie turned her attention back to Seb and her heart dropped. Seb wasn't howling anymore but growling. His eyes were beaming a bright yellow and had doubled in size. His fingernails had changed into claws and he began using them to rip off large chucks of skin off his chest. Beneath the skin was black thick fur like hair. It was the color of the night sky and so

..Simon PovSimon was nervous but he didn't want to show it. Marie on the other hand looked fearless. She stared down Talon with a bravery he didn't expect. Still he worried for both their safety. With everyone else gone, they had next to no chance taking out the vampires alone."Why don't you just walk away Talon, while you still can. And take your pet too" Marie bit out. Talon folded his arms and a sly grin covered his face. The smile was unnerving.Kim however hadn't spoken a word. Since they popped up she didn't really even pay them any attention. Instead she continued to stare at the palm of her hand as if something were there…"I'll go little girl if I can take you with me" Talon replied with a wink. Marie balled her fist."Ove

.Catalina PovShe heard Cassandras screams of revenge even after the ebony skinned vampire took her away. The pain and fury of her voice alone left Cata on edge. This piece of unfinished business needed to be handled immediately.More guards had finally entered the destroyed execution room and rushed to her side."Find me Raven. Now!" She ordered losing her balance and falling to one knee. Cassandra did a great job of shoving the platinum star deep into her core. The poison was working its way through her body, killing her slowly. Lucky for her that it was only one star or she'd already be dead.A few guards flew off following her orders while another helped her to her feet. In less than a minute the Goth clothed witch came strolling into the room, assessing the scene"Hello

Cassandra roared and then she attacked...Ana PovThe guards were closing in on Seb and Jace. My instincts to protect them took over. I raised my fingers and four short blasts of lightening shot out and stuck all four vamps with excellent precision. Their bodies exploded into black dust causing Jace and Seb to duck and cover.Wow, that's new! I have no clue how I did that but it doesn't matter right now. Before they could even stand back up, I launched myself at them, hugging them both a little too hard."I'm so happy to see you guys!" I exclaimed"You too Ana" Jace said with much relief"Are you okay? Have you been hurt?" S

."She's using her ability! Stop her now!" Ferox ordered. Everyone turned their attention to Acacia who was still standing and starting at Marcos head. Only difference was she was shaking and her skin took on a blue tint. It was freaky. The thought didn't cross my mind that she had an ability, clearly she did and it was strong.The guards charged her. Acacia didn't move until they were almost on her and then she attacked.Long, jagged icicles sprang from her wrists. She back flipped and stabbed one into the eye of the first guard to close in and another into the heart of the second. The room was so cold now that her chains crumbled to pieces as soon as she yanked them."I WILL AVENGE MY LOVE!" Acacia roared viscously. The queen was nothing but pure rage now. A few vampires looked terrified and cautiously made their way to the door.

..Cassius PovThe execution feast was in full swing. Cassius stood in the grand ballroom watching hundreds of the oldest and most powerful vampires mingle and feed. The two blonde vampires that he uses for sexual fun, eyed him across the room. Cassius ignored them and downed another alcoholic drink. His mind was clouded by one blue eyed vampire, that has yet to make her entrance; Ana. Even as bad as he wanted her, the conversation he had with sister a couple of hours ago kept replaying over in his mind~~~Two hours earlier…~~~Cassius waited until he knew Gwyn had taken Ana upstairs before he questioned his sister."Catalina what do you really want" He snapped barely containing his anger. When Catalina was around it meant trouble for everyone else. Cassius knew there was more than just their mothers awakening
