I was yet again blanketed by the night, its silence offering me comfort. I hadn't thought of what I would tell Damon when he comes into the room from his office to meet it empty but now, that was the least of my concerns

I was excited at what tonight could hold. I knew despite it, I had to be careful, careful of what I said and would do, I was taking such a huge risk.

If anything, no matter how small went wrong, then it would all be likey over for me. If anyone knew I was meeting the vampires late at night, I knew what would happen to me because I was committing the highest form of treason and it was part of the reason my stomach erupted with butterflies.

I, Eliana, was committing treason against the Dark Moon pack.

“This is wrong and you know it!” Hazel snapped at me.

“Or you could quit being a wolf, get a body of your own and make everything in this world all right and pristine,” I said, shutting her up.

The leaves crunched beneath my feet as I made my way through in hurried strides

    I didn't even know if to laugh or be offended. Theo was a fucking pest! Was he now stalking me? And how in hell had I not realized he'd been following me?He reached us and looked from me to Adrianne, and then back to me.“Don’t you wonder, Luna, how we always find ourselves meeting at unusual places?” He asked.“You’re following me,” I said in a dry tone, trying to calm down the storm that had erupted within me. Theo didn't know Adrianne was a vampire, and he had been too far off to hear anything we had discussed“Yes, I am.” He confessed with a shrug glancing once again at Adrainne who stood stoic. “Because I don't trust you, now who's this?”I chuckled, turning away at the ridiculousness of this whole thing. Should I just kill him off? He wouldn't be missed, the man was such an incompetent idiot, I felt second-hand embarrassment at his existence.“Who are you?” Adrianne asked, walking closer.“Theo,” He said, stretching his hand, and like I had done to her, Adrianne ignored him.

    Damon sat up slowly, he reached out a hand and collected the wristwatch from Alex. The glass was broken and it had blood stains on it.I stared at it mouth agape. The first and last time I’d seen it was on the day it had been gifted to me, I remember discarding it on the table because I knew I was never going to wear it, ever.“I’ve never seen this with Alena,” Damon said. “Theo! That lying bastard!”“It’s mine, dad gave it to me on the night of the party and I’d kept it in the bedroom. Amidst the chaos of that night, I totally forgot about this, I've never worn this wristwatch a day in my life.” I explained.Damon turned to me. “It’s yours?” He asked.I nodded.“He’s obviously lying.” I said, “I have no reason to attack Theo and why would I leave my wristwatch lying there? It makes no sense.”“Someone is setting you up,” Damon said in a low voice, turning to me.I was well aware of that fact. Theo was, I didn't know his plans but this stupid move had his M.O all over it.Damon contin

    How do you get the attention of someone who wants to have absolutely nothing to do with you?It's been three days and Damon has actively been avoiding me. His spot on the bed next to me was cold, he hadn't slept in it for the past few days. When he wasn't outdoors, he spent his time in his office where he had his dinner and slept in.It was unsettling, to say the least. I had never felt this silence from his end before, and it was so because it was my fault. I hadn't lost sight of my goal - I could never, but like I’d said, I was going to take whatever he has to offer, and so far I wasn't liking this bad. I was bored out of my mind and nothing was helping ease it.“There have been rumors,” Marina was saying. It was late evening, and we were in the sitting room having tea and cakes.I didn't say anything in response and so she continued.“Of course, I know it's not true but apparently they said Theo defied you and Damon unleashed on him or something like that, it's all distorting tale

    “I have been so worried about you,” Aunt Aurora said, running her hands down my shoulder. “I made something.”She said moving towards the table, she picked up a necklace with a tiny rock and placed it in my palms.“We can converse through this, your mother made one for me and herself before…” I nodded and tucked it inside the inner pocket of the coat.“Have you found her?” I asked, referring to the witch who had made the anthurium potion.Aunt Aurora’s expression turned somber.“I have,”Excitement swelled in me. “Where does she stay?”“Eliana,” She said, holding my hands in hers. “My darling girl, I know you have suffered so much but are you sure about this? You know you are welcome here, it’s been long enough, and no one cares about your mother’s mistake anymore. We will accept you where you rightfully belong.”“As long as you all keep seeing me as Mother's mistake, this isn't the right place for me,” I said.She took in a sharp breath. “You know that's not what I mean, I worry for

    I felt everything in me die at her words, my blood stopped flowing, my heart stopped pumping… Every single thing went dead and I could only stare back at the witch with empty eyes.She took in my expression and burst into another of her horrific laughter.“Oh dear me! This is more entertainment than I've gotten in a long time.” She paused and watched me. “Don’t tell me all this while, all this time has passed, so many long long years have gone by and all through it that you thought your mother was innocent, oh no, you poor, sweet child.”“Shut up!” Aunt Aurora said angrily. “Shut the hell up!”The woman turned to aunt Aurora, her face the epitome of pleasure. “You too Aurora? No, I thought better of you. You should be smarter than the kid, shouldn’t you? It will be pathetic if even you think your sister was falsely accused.““You’re lying,” I heard a distant voice say, it took a few seconds to go by before I realized it was mine. It sounded foreign to my ears, small, quiet, broken. “M

    I remained unmoving on the floor, too paralyzed by shock to even move a muscle.“Get a grip of yourself, Eliana!” Aunt Aurora screamed at me. “Do you know what you were about to do? Do you realize the weight of the deal you were about to make? If it hadn't been for me?”Tears ran down my face, pouring down furiously this time, they weren't even trying to hide.“I know you are in shock but that woman. She's the devil herself! She doesn't care about anyone else and has only ever wanted power, she is greedy and power-hungry. I swear she is the worst of our kind to have ever existed.”“No,” I said in a small voice, I was still on the floor staring at the ceiling. “Mother was, undoubtedly so. Margaret was the absolute worst.”My aunt took in a deep breath before setting herself on the floor beside me. She placed her hand gently on my arm.“You know she could be lying, right?” She asked.I shook my head. I had deluded myself long enough, I wasn't going to continue to do so anymore.“You kno

    One look was all it took for Damon to know something was wrong with me, to get rid of his anger, to put aside everything that has been going on with us, and to hold me in his arms, letting me collapse into him, allowing me to fall and catching me just in time.He didn't say a word, he simply held me like I needed to be held. His arms around me in that protective way of his, the one that shut out everything and left me in the cocoon of his body warmth, caressing not just my body but my soul. Loving me in a way I could never love myself, holding me in a way that sheltered me from everything else, myself included because right now, I was a danger to myself and I only wished I could be spared from my mind.My mind was a monster, a wild child that kept screaming, flailing, crying, and pounding to be set free… I wished I could, I was in utter chaos and the only thing I could do was cry, let it all out, all the pain and betrayal, I let them flow out of me through the tears and they did pour

    Damon watched with an expressionless face at the body that had been pulled up from the grave it had been previously buried in. He was almost unrecognizable, and from how bad he looked, Damon was guessing it must have been at least ten months since his death.But the man being dead and buried was not his business, his concern was that the man was a vampire… Another one.“What do you think happened?” He asked Alex and David who both stood at his sides.“Likely had an altercation with someone,” David answered, peering at the body with a frown on his face, “these goddamn vampires sure make it feel like they're everywhere. We can't deny it anymore now, I believe there are quite a number of them in our pack.”Alex said nothing, gritting his teeth.“They are living freely,” Damon said looking straight ahead, he had a nagging at the back of his head that he couldn't quite make sense of yet.“You have gone soft.” Alex finally said.Damon looked at him with a raised brow.“What do you mean?” Dav

    You're not dead." I said harshly This was my fault. Why did it take me so long before making a move? Why had I allowed David and Valinne to use me for so long before I got half the mind to escape? I was so disgusted by myself.If anything happened to him, it was because of me."Alena," He muttered."Yes, yes," I nodded. "I'm here and you're fine now. I promise I'm sorry. I'm so so sorry, I was stupid."His eyes opened a little and he stared at me.A small smile curled up his lips. "I've missed you." He said and I felt my heart still.I loved him.I loved him more than I could ever love anyone else.He was the ultimate love of my life and I couldn't believe I'd spent so much time hating him instead of truly loving him. I wasted a lot of time being angry at him but I was going to compensate for that.I was going to love him for the rest of my life I let go of him and climbed the slab on the floor to help me reach where his hands were chained.

    My eyes moved from the cell Alex was held in to the one opposite and I was shocked to see Adrianne. I had completely forgotten about the existence of these two people."What are you doing here?" Alex asked."Where is Damon?" I asked him in a frantic tone.He stared back at me with surprise. "Damon? Is he here?"I felt my eyes roll all the way back to my head and I wanted to leave him and continue with my search because I didn't have half the time to be standing around and chatting but I thought if there was anything, Alex would probably help find Damon.Especially now that it was proven that not he but David was the traitor. I wanted to feel sorry for accusing him wrongly and jumping to conclusions but I really was too exhausted to be bothered with such feelings so instead, I brought out the key I had stolen from the dungeon earlier during our squabble. It seemed like only one key unlocked all the locks of the cell rooms. I inserted the key into the lock and twisted it open."Hey!" Ad

    I was taking a risk and it was one that might cause both I and Damon's life but it was all I could do. It was my last resort.My eyes shut, I tried my best to remember all I could about the convenience store, the shelves, the paint, the smell of it.My brain fought against the strain but I kept on with it, harder with each passing second until finally, I felt the air change, and when my eyes came open I was in the convenience store, I hoped.It was dark, so dark and cold I shivered from it despite the sweater I was wearing.I hoped with everything in me that I wasn't going to regret this, if my plans didn't work then it was over for Damon and me.I had guessed and I prayed it was correct that Damon was being held in the underground dungeons. It was the only place I could think of that he was being held in and it was like why David had refused to take me to see him.Although during my time there, I hadn't heard anything to indicate we were in the same building but something still convi

    Alex watched the woman in the cell opposite him. It was what he had done for the past months they'd been locked together. He had only watched her with complete silence even though she tried to get him to talk, there was nothing for him to say to her.How stupid could he have been? Had he been so desperate for love, he had fallen madly for the first woman to give him attention and it didn't help that she looked like that. He had for so long been insecure about himself because of his scars and why wouldn't he be? Not after his true mate had rejected him.He still had the image of her in his mind - her long, thick blonde hair that cascaded down her back, almost reaching her waist, of her perfect skin and blue, bright eyes. She was an Alpha daughter and was his mate, his mate who had been horrified at the sight of him.It was why when Adrianne had given him attention, he had been taken by it, taken by her, and here they both were - he had just been a pawn in her game.It was his fault fo

    He glared at me from where he was seated opposite me.“I won't do any more of your bidding if I don't see Damon and be convinced enough he is still alive.”Valinne chuckled. “Aren’t you just the cutest, Eliana?”“That is impossible, he is alive and that is all there is to that. You will not see him!”Was he truly dead? Fear gripped me.“Why won't you allow me to see him? If truly he is alive, it wouldn't be a problem for you, would it? The only reason I can think of…”David cut me off impatiently, “he is alive, I have no reason to kill him, not until you give me one, and right now, you really are.”“I want to see him!” I insisted. Why won't they allow me to see him if he was alive as they claimed and deep down, I knew he was but why were they being so insistent on me not seeing him? I hated the goosebumps the feeling of something being terribly wrong caused.“You shall not! Jeremiah!”“Shut up!” I growled and immediately everything around us rattled, the mugs on the table, the books b

    “Get up!” Jeremiah said, opening the door and yelling at me from outside. I ignored him until he had to fill his big frame into the room and pull me, and himself out of it.He was panting slightly as he led me down the stairs and my lips widened into a smile at his discomfort.Today, I was led outdoors where a group of vampires was bound and lined up and the pack members were standing around and watching, the segregation between the werewolves and vampires remained. I let out a groan at the sight; how many prisoners does David need to punish?I stared at my feet this time as David spoke, willing for the time to move faster while still knowing that I was going to have a repeat of the days ago event.“These vampires bound today are those of us who have broken the important rule for the cohabitation of the two species. Blood feeding should only be done with wild animals, members of other packs, and rogues. My vision for this merger is to help the Dark Moon pack achieve what no other pack

    “Ah,” He heard the self-satisfaction in David's voice. “I can see your senses are still sharp, Damon.”The fury in him had heightened with David’s presence but he wasn't going to let it show, it would only serve to give the idiot more pleasure about what he’d done. He wouldn't let him know that he was going crazy from being locked up, it was what he wanted.“I am a born Alpha, remember? There are just some things that can't be stolen, unfortunately.” He said in an arrogant tone that he wasn't feeling.The room was still engulfed in darkness and he found it slightly bothersome.“Refusing to show your face, David? Or you just can't stand looking at me? Strange since I expect you'd be reveling in my sight.” He said dryly.“Can’t stand looking at you, Damon?” And he chuckled. “There is nothing to look at.”The insult pierced him and he felt his jaw clench tight but he said nothing in response. The lights finally came on and like every single time, it momentarily left him blind so he had t

    I would like to kill them all, every single person in existence around me.It would be an easy feat, I wanted to set them on fire, myself included. It would be easy, I said to myself again, all I had to do was to simply let my powers roll over me and connect it with nature’s energy, I could feel it buzzing beneath my feet.The anger and pain in me would be infused into it so much that no one would be spared when I unleashed but I couldn't.Nothing hurt more than the fact that I couldn't do it, so I cried, screamed, and kicked as I was bound back, the chains locked around my hands and I was led back to the attic where I currently sat, watching the wall opposite me with eyes blurred from tears.Marina.I repeated her names over and over again until it was the only thing ringing in my head. She was dead because of me, I had wanted to save her but instead, I had shown I cared much about her and made her prey to Valinne’s cruelty.A lesson for me.I wished I was dead.I wished Damon had le

    The days seemed to roll into one for him and he could barely tell the difference between night and day. His eyes had gotten accustomed to the darkness of his holding cell and he could almost see the cracks on the wall, the peeling of the paint on it.The coldness from the damp walls was his constant partner, it seeped into his skin clinging to him, boring into him - his fingernails, toenails, chewing every inch of his body but he couldn't complain not when he was left at its mercy.He has been stripped off of almost all of his clothing, the only thing left on him was shorts that barely reached his knees. His both hands were chained to the wall and too many times to count, his knees had buckled but the chains locked onto his wrist held him up, digging into the skin.Relieving himself was an embarrassing feat, a pail was brought to him and he did his business while standing, one of his hands unchained, and after he was done, the pail was taken away and his hand was chained back.Damon w
