Ana Pov
Gwen 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
.Ana PovThe king must have seriously lost his mind. A moment ago he said my mother broke his father's heart and destroyed his family. To say I didn't believe him was the understatement of the century. He hadn't give me one reason to trust him and that person or whatever it was standing behind him was starting to give me the creeps on top of everything else.I casually folded my arms across my chest and sat back in my seat, not replying to his preposterous lies. Ferox narrowed his red eyes at me."You don't believe me? Fine. But ask yourself this, why didn't Celeste kill him herself?" Ferox hissed. This vampire clearly hated my mother by the way he spat her name and that almost had me hissing back in response.But his question threw me off. Why didn't she kill Erebus? Helia told me that she impri
..Cassandra PovDrowning in a sea of men would be the only way to describe Cassandra's current state. She lay perfectly still as one of her men brushed her long red locks, another painted her toes and another her fingernails. It didn't stop there; two more massaged various parts of her nude body. Good thing she recently purchased a massive bed to fit her many servants.The bedroom door opened and one of her ebony complexion men came in carrying a card or something. He was dressed the same way she required all her male only servants to dress. Black briefs and white bow tie only. Cassandra loved to look at their rock hard bodies. It was one of her three requirements to be in her employ. 1.) Always follow her orders. 2.) Have an amazing body and face. 3.) When in doubt refer to rule number one. If the human she chose did as she said and more then she rewarded them with immortality.
..Somewhere behind her a door opened and closed. Celeste didn't bother turning to see who had entered her bedroom; she never took her eyes and hand off her swollen stomach. The person standing behind I also knew from my time in the vortex. She too looked the same with her wise eyes and long white hair in a single braid. Hildegarde smiled sadly behind Celeste"She's due any day now" The old crone commented. My mother met her eyes through the mirror and nodded."I know" She mumbled "I wish I could keep her in here longer just to have her close to me" Celeste rubbed her belly once more"There is still time. We could try other ways to stop him…" Hildegarde pleaded but my mother's hand up stopped her short. By this point I knew it was me that they were talking about. I was the ba
..Gwyn PovGwyn watched with mild interest as the human wait staff shuffled about the large dining area decorating and setting the table with food only fit for a king. Tonight was the feast before the execution and it was sure to be a grand one…"What is that?!" Gwyn demanded when a male waiter tried to pass her quickly. The man froze in place; fear clouding his features. He was dressed the way all the servants were this evening, black button down and slacks with a bright red bow tie."Uh its-its uh ba-bal" The man was so afraid that he could barely speak. Gwyn hardened her already cold features and pinned him with a death glare."Are those balloons?" she sneered already knowing the response. The poor human looked down at the multicolored unfilled bands
