—Killian— "It's because I can't Lena that's what you wanted to hear right I can't shift anymore. I'm the strongest flip shifter in a century and also an alpha but I can't fucking shift." She looks at me with a look of shock and disbelief on her face, I can't believe I just told her my secret no one else knows this except Lachlan. I take her moment of shock as an opportunity and get into the car, I can't start answering all the questions that I know she has about me not being able to shift. So i get into my car and speed off the driveway away from her. I drive aimlessly until I get to a clearing filled with trees, its so quiet up here, you can barely hear the sounds from the city. This is exactly what I need so I get down from the car and just start running i might not be able to shift but I still have my speed. I run until I get to the end of the clearing and then I let out a blood curling scream that all the animals in the forest seem to go
—Lena— I've had to return back to work Kate and I take shifts checking in on Adriana, she's staying with Kilian for now. Killian and I haven't had a chance to talk as everyone is focused on finding the people behind the feral shifters drug, but I know we need to have the conversation soon. Jeremy has been out of town on business but should be back this week. “Hey, Lena.” Eric peeks his head through my door. “There’s someone here to see you.” Who now, I wonder? As I stand up, flattening the crease in my skirt, Jeremy walks into the room. Oh, fuck. I haven’t seen him in weeks, and in that time, I have screwed Killian more times than I care to admit. “Hey, gorgeous. I was starting to think you had disappeared.” Jeremy strolls over to me, grabbing my waist and pulling my body against his. Tilting his head, he plants a kiss on my lips, an uneasy feeling consuming me as I force a smile. “Sorry, Jeremy. Work has literally k
—Lena— Eric clutches my hand tight, rushing me along the busy streets attempting to reach the restaurant in record speed. “Eric, seriously, can you slow down,” I cry, struggling to keep up. “I just don’t want to be late. Spago will bump you off if you aren’t on time.” Spago is a very upbeat Spanish restaurant in Chelsea. As a treat for my birthday, Eric is taking me to dinner. I’m more than happy to stay at home and drown myself in my sorrows, but Eric suggests a day full of ‘us’ time—shopping, massages, pedis, and of course, dinner at the best restaurant to show off our newly dressed and pampered bodies. “Here we are!” We walk into the restaurant where crowds of people are standing in the bar area waiting to be served. All the tables are taken from what I can see, and guilty of slowing us down I’m praying our reservation still stands. “Sir, madam, please let me escort you to your table.” The waiter leads us
—Mari— I stand on the sidewalk opposite the restaurant the cold rain pouring down on me but I don't care. Look at all of them being happy, I will make sure that their happiness is short lived especially Killian. If I can't have him nobody else can. ******** —Lena— Killian slams his lips to mine. With my back forced against the wall, he nearly knocks the wind out of my lungs, desperate with his need to take me inside this small private bathroom. I hardly have a moment to react, the weight of his body pressing against mine. I’m aware of his cock pressing against my stomach, my desperation exerted in a deep moan as he presses his tongue to the seam of my lips before delving inside my mouth. My arms reach and tangle around his neck, pulling him closer to me. We both lose ourselves in this heated exchange, and despite how very wrong this is, I’m unable to stop, my body p
—Lachlan— I'm packing my bags getting ready to leave when I hear tiny footsteps running up the steps to my room. The door opens and in walks my son. "Are we going somewhere daddy?" He asks walking up to the bed and climbing on it. I leave what I'm doing and go and seat next to him. "Hey buddy, remember I told you I'd be leaving for a while to go find out some things for your uncle Killian." He looks at me tears already welling up in his eyes and his little lips trembling. "Yea, but I thought me and mum were going with you." Oh Goddess how do I explain leaving to my child that it makes sense he already grew up not seeing me all the time but now that he's growing up it's getting harder for him seeing me go. "Hey buddy I promise you this is the last time after this, me you and your mum we'll finally be a family and I won't leave anymore and you can even come to the pack with me when I need to go there." "But why can't I go with you n
—Lena— Today is officially known as birthday-hangover day. I should really stop using alcohol to solve my problems. Last night after Jeremy left and everything with Killian, I couldn't take it anymore. I didn't want to think about my whole situation so I decided to drown my sorrow with a bottle of vodka. Mustering the courage to text him, I thank him for bringing me home in my intoxicated state. It wasn’t my finest moment, and lately, there have been too many humiliating moments, all with one thing in common—alcohol. My phone buzzes beside me, startling a relaxed Coco. Kate: Hey sleepy head hope you remember Killian is taking Will to the Yankees game tonight. And you promised to be there, you better be at my place at six on the dot. Six o’clock on the dot, and I’m knocking on the door dressed in my jeans, hoodie, and Converse. The door opens, and an excited Will wraps his small arms around my waist, hugging me real tight. He
—Jeremy— I arrive at the lab the next day to check how the trials are going and to tell my partners about the secret Mariana told me. I park my car and get down. "You stay in the car and don't come in until I call for you, and I mean it Mariana." "Ok, fine I'll stay here." I close the door and head to the lab. I know you're all probably wondering why I bought Mariana here, seeing as she's a blabber mouth and could run back and tell Killian all my plans. Well the thing is Mariana Hayes won't live to see next week its all part of my plan. Well I guess now that you know that I'm the unknown you may as well know my three other partners, but I'll only tell you two of their names we're going to keep the last one as a surprise. My two partners that are with me in this plan to bring down Killian are Eamon and Lochlan Byrne. There are members of Killian's pack, but they don't like the way that Killian has brought the pack to the modern century.
—Eric— 10 Years Ago I wake up to screaming and arguing, I don't need to listen in to what it's about. I already know they are arguing about me, it's always about me. My name is Eriza Ar'Sanin the only son of the Ar'Sanin clan, and the strongest warlock born in a century. I'm sure you're wondering what's causing the argument downstairs. Well my father the great Iannis Ar'Sanin is the leader of our clan and me being his eldest and only son, I am supposed to take over from him but you see the thing is I don't want to. My father is old school, stuck in his old ways and doesn't like to listen to other people's opinions, especially mine. I'm not a leader, I don't want to take over the clan, I can't handle the responsibility but my sister is made for the job. She might not be as strong as me, but she's the second strongest, even stronger than my dad. But my dad won't hear any of it, saying that she's a girl and not fit
