.Seb Pov"On the count of three" Lily started "One...….Two...I think you're a werewolf...….Three!" she yelled taking off towards the house. However her words had him rooted to the ground. What did she just say? Seb watched her sloppy run for a moment before taking off after her. He easily caught up to her and cut her off before she reached the house"Ahh!" she screamed clutching her chest "Damn you scared me!""What did you call me?" Seb questioned. Lily began to squirm a little under is gaze."Oh umm I called you a werewolf" She confessed. His face scrunched up in confusion"Why?" He wanted to know what exactly made her think that"Well I've been noticing things, the biggest was with the wolves on Nexus. Not to mention you growl a lot, I've
The worst part was he could hear the smile in Catalina's voice before he even turned to see her face. She hated her own mother so much that she wanted her to suffer even more than she already hasAnd that's when he lost it….Cassius spun on his sister so fast she didn't see it coming. In a flash he was holding her in the air by her neck while pushing monstrous images of her death into her mind.Cata screamed and kicked but it was no use. When he was this mad, there was no stopping him. And with her gloves still on she really didn't stand a chance."ENOUGH!" A booming voice bellowed from behind him.Cassius instantly dropped his sister to the ground. There was only one vampire that had any control over him. Cassius turned on his heel and bowed to his father the king. Catalina was still on the ground panting and clutchi
..Seb Pov"This is Princess Catalina" Simon started pointing to the girl on the side of the page "The reason I'm starting with her is because she is dangerous and is known for her touch of death…" Simon paused dramatically and everyone was silent; everyone except Lily"What the hell does that mean?!" Lily hollered taking a seat Indian style on the floor."It means the Princess can kill with one touch. Her ability allows her to strip the life force from you. Any skin to skin contact and your dead in minutes. She always wears gloves to keep from accidentally killing someone." Simon explained.Seb was making mental notes as the younger boy spoke. But his mind kept wandering to Ana. All he wanted was for her to be safe. If something has happened to her, he didn't know what hell he would release on earth.&
..Ana PovGwen sashayed away with a slight pep in her step. My instincts screamed for me not to trust her and I was definitely listening to them. Of course she was planning to use me in some way for her own benefit but my task is to use her for my own benefit first.I turned my attention back the red door of the guest room she'd abandoned me at. Well here goes nothing . Slowly I turned the knob and entered a slightly smaller room than Cassius. It was sparsely decorated with random paintings here and there. The large bed in the center reminded me of a hotel with its white sheets and white pillows. It smelled stuffy and unused. As I walked further inside I noticed a white vanity table with a huge oval mirror next to the walk in closet.The door to the closet was one of those ones that slide opened. The inside had racks of clothes on both
.."I did it because I can no longer pay for my brother's mistakes. And I did it for Cassandra. To win back her love" He spoke honestly.Cat had heard the rumors about Cassandra hyping out and living life wildly. Apparently never forgiving Maximus for his betrayals. She couldn't help but laugh"Love! Love! How foolish! All of you!" Cata gestured wide "Everyone does everything for love! It's amazing how stupid you all are. My father, my brother, Gwen, You, my brothers mate, even my own mother! Everyone acts according to love. And you want to know what? They have or will fail because of it. And I will win because I love no one but myself" she said venomously. Maximus could only stare at her. Beautiful on the outside but evil and dark on the inside."You better hope fate doesn't ever give you a true mate because
Seb Pov"SEB! SEB! WAKE UP!" a frantic female voice shrilled. Seb bolted awake panting heavily. His hands instantly flew to his neck searching for the gaping hole the wolf surely tore from his throat. But he was only met with a smooth sweaty surface; no hole…no blood."Are you okay?" Seb snapped his eyes up and met the concerned face of Lily as she crouched over him. Confusion spread through his mind faster than a paper towel soaking up water. The moment in the forest with the wolf felt real, too real."What happened?" he asked more to himself than anything. Still rubbing his neck, seeking the wound he thought he had."I don't know dude! You ran out the house like you were on fire! So your sister, Simon and I came looking for you. We split up and I found you here, on the side of the road shaking and growling" Lily had a look in her eye that was more than just concern but also fear. What was she not saying?Seb tried to shake off the wave of dizziness as he painfully stood but his whol
..Kim PovThe students of Mercy Heights were drawn to her like a moth to a flame. And she loved it….Kim leaned back smoothly on the cold metal lockers and smirked at all on the onlooker's stunned faces by her new appearance. She felt confident, sexy, powerful and most importantly dangerous.Kim had decided to return to high school when the trails after Talon lead cold. For days she searched for the vampire that gave her a purpose; that gave her immortality, but after about five hundred miles of running she completely lost his scent. Now she stood in the hallways before classes began, basking in all the attention.The tight black leather skirt was riding so high it threatened to spill her Victoria secrets. She paired it with a black halter top with two sparkly cherries over the breast; the shirt allowed all her former classmates t
..Jace promptly reached for his natural magic and place Mr. Clay into a sleeping spell. He knew he shouldn't be using his natural magic for something so simple but it was too late to go back and use a spell instead. He just hoped when the vice principle woke up he forgot everything he saw.Kim turned gracefully on her heels to face them."Well, to what do I owe this pleasure?" She snarled. Her anger at their interruption was clear.Seeing her so close with crazed pitch black eyes and white fangs that seemed to gleam in the dimly lit room, Jace wondered how on earth he was supposed to reason with her. Kim was never easy to bargain with. They had many fights over the time they dated; all over Ana and all ending with her threatening to expose him.Thinking back to those days had him clenching his fist. But Jace had to
..****LilyThe moment Bobby walked out the door her heart dropped. She couldn't just let him walk away from her. 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 allowed her eyes to bled black and her fangs burst free as all her rage surfaced when she turned back to Catalina. It was time for the princess to die..."Your mine b**!" 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
