Where could she be?” She asked, crying as she ran her hands through her hair, tears running down her face.“This is unlike her, Alena would never spend the night elsewhere. David, do something!” She yelled at her husband.“I’m doing all I can Hannah!” He yelled back. “We spent all of last night with our warriors searching through the forest. What more can I do?”She fell to the floor crying. “My darling girl,”The door opened and a man stepped into the house holding up a pair of dainty sandals, Alena’s mother immediately jumped up at the sight of it. She dragged it from his hands and stared at it, her mouth quivering.“David,” She called, “these are Alena’s.” And she looked up at her husband with frightened eyes.Beta David moved closer to his wife and held one from the pair in his shaky hands, the strap was cut and it was dirty, stained with brown from sand, and his chest tightened.“What if she has been kidnapped?” His wife asked. “What if those damn vampires have gotten her?”And s
“So this person, when did you first meet her?” Alex asked looking straight at me with interest, they all were but my eyes were solely focused on the Delta, his scarred, horrendous face remained as I had remembered it.“Go on hag, kill me!” He had said placing my hands on his chest. I wanted him to say that again, and this time I was going to give him what he asked but for now, I stuck to my tale. As soon as I had placed my hand on my mom’s, I could hear all her thoughts of me being cursed by a witch and how that was the reason I acted strangely.“It was on the night of the full moon ritual, the day I turned eighteen,” I said, staring down at my finger, I twisted them nervously.“She had met up with me at the little shop by the corner, right before the waterfalls and had asked for my help with something and seeing how old and frail she was, I went with her to help. It was then she grabbed me and began whispering things into my ears, I don't know what exactly she said but she released
The town was lit up tonight, people moved freely around and no one glanced at him as he made his way through the crowd covered heavily in his black cloak. “Going for a cent.” A merchant yelled continuously hitting iron, the noise ringing out in the busy street.The man kept his head bowed, sifting through the bodies of people.“Brown bread over here.” Another merchant cried and pulled the man by his coat. His face shriveled in disgust before he roughly pulled away shoving the baker off, he hurriedly continued on his way.Finally, he came across a dark alley where he pulled off the cloak from his head, the dim lamp on the other street reflected on it showing off the full, brown-colored hair on his head.Minutes later, he was joined by another man.“You are late,” The first man said, digging his hand into his cloak.“What is so urgent?” The other man asked impatiently.“My time is of utmost importance to me, Tobias.” The man in black said.“Will you stop talking about the fucking time
I was dressed in a pretty pink blouse on a black, flowy skirt, paired with my mom's silver earrings. My hair was put up in a ponytail.“You always look so pretty with little effort Alena, I'm so jealous,” Marina whined from on top of my bed where she was flipping through some old novels I stocked.“I totally agree, it's those eyes of hers, and the hair, and the face, and everything.” Sophie, another friend of ours, said exaggerating from the open toilet where she was applying gloss on her lips in front of my newly replaced mirror.I flipped my hair for effect chuckling as I dodged the pillow Marina threw at me.“C’mon,” Marina said, jumping down from the bed. “We’re going to be late.”We were dressed for dinner at the most popular inn in town, Hailey, another friend of ours was having her birthday dinner and our parents had permitted us to go. It had unfortunately taken a lot more pleading and convincing for my dad to budge after all that I’d gone through these past days but eventuall
Damon stared hard at the bodies expressionless. Alex stood next to him as they watched the pack’s physician who was currently bent over, examining one of the dead men.A few warriors stood around them waiting for the physician to be done, and finally, he stood up with a sigh.“Sorcery,” He announced much to the shock of everyone. Damon felt his face hardened at the declaration, the two men had been his pack’s warriors.“We’ve lost three warriors to this witch!” Alex said angrily.It was obvious now that Alena had been telling the truth, there really was a witch in their land. He clenched his fist, he was going to destroy her, it was a solemn promise. He despised sorcerers with everything in him, one had taken Aria and his child away from him, and anyone again who dared to come even as close to him as his territory border was going to feel his wrath and now there was one freely moving in his lands, killing his warriors and had even gotten as close to killing him.“But it's one unlike I'
A sorcerer and a Vampire hybrid, that was who I was - an abomination, a crossbreed that should have never happened but had. I had been a mistake, I didn't have to be told that but I knew it. It was why my mother had left the security and safety of living with her kind and brought me to be raised far off from everyone else, just the both of us.She had met him, an injured Vampire who had come into her small village for treatment and I had happened one night, and then she was punished with me. Sorcerers were meant to mate with only two species: their fellow sorcerers and humans. Any other mix was a disaster, usually, the children from otherwise interbreed were born deformed and brought great calamity into the land they were born into.When they had found out, Mother was pardoned for being a promising sorcerer otherwise, she was meant to have been killed with me inside of her, and instead, she was to birth me and I was to be killed, that was the plan until the last few days before my bi
TRIGGER WARNING: Chapter content includes complete sexual scenes (may be skipped).And just as my lips touched his skin, he wrapped his arms around my body and hoisted me up pulling me away from the spot. Instinctively, my legs wrapped around his waist, my arms around his neck.I stared back at his eyes, dark with obvious desires. It sent shivers through every part of me. “We will do this my way.” His voice came out husky, each word sending my heart into a frenzy. I found myself frozen in place by his gaze, he dipped his head and caught my lips with his.I released a gasp at the hungry manner in which he kissed me, wrapping my arms tighter around him. I kissed him back with equal intensity, one of his hands held my neck in place, gently caressing the spot as his mouth pleasured me. The kiss was possessive, his arm around my waist pulling me even closer to him.His tongue pushed into my mouth curling itself against the inside of my mouth sending heat through me in a way I never knew
The first thing I felt when my eyes opened was a tingle in the spot where I’d been marked. My hand went to it gently caressing it, and a small smile formed in my face.We were yet to be bonded fully but this was something, to complete the full bond, we were to hold the crowning ceremony first and after that, I would become the Luna before mating with the Alpha to complete it. “Hey,” Damon said, rolling over, an arm wrapping around my body. I felt happiness fill me at this, it was the mate effect, I reminded myself. Whatever I felt now had nothing to do with my own will and I was no longer going to try to suppress it, but deep inside I knew what I truly felt for this man and that was hate, the feelings for him that were not subjected to a higher being’s control and left to my will was raw disgust - disdain at his presence, revulsion at his touch and absolute contempt at his existence.I turned to him with a smile on my face, my eyes closed as I hugged him closer, snuggling deep into
