There he was, A Tall, well-muscled man, - chest completely naked, A green tattoo swirled across his skin, his body filled the entire door space of my bedroom – my eyes trailed his lower body landing on the only scrap of clothing he had on – his boxers, I can trace the outline of his junk imprint.
Wow.
Shit.
Don’t look.
“Seth, what do you think you are doing in here?” Henry asked as he sat at the edge of the ruffled bed watching him very closely.
So, his name is Seth?
“Do you know what time it is?” Seth asked walking into the poorly dimly lit bedroom, his red ruby eyes- trained to keep sight of his target.
I let out a deep and tired sigh. “Hell, I don’t know, sometime after 3 A.M.?”
Ding.
Ding.
We have a winner and it’s the stupid cat.
Seth took a step towards Henry “That’s right” his voice roared out - anger-filled both of his deep Ruby red eyes, his nose flared out as his breathing is noticeably hard. You would think if he was a dragon he would have burned Henry to a crisp right now.
Henry shrugged both of his shoulders carelessly. Ignoring my words “And because of this shit, I can’t get any sleep tonight” I yelled but I watched Henry Roll his eyes in the back of his head as if he was silently and mentally saying, not my problem if you can sleep or not “You little shit” I groaned softly under my breath.
“That’s enough you two!” A shaken voice roared.
I shifted my focus back on my little sister who seem to be fixated on the wolf.
There was something about this Guy -Seth- his body is radiating energy, powerful, raw, even dominating, it outmatches Henry’s by a lot, and on a whole different level.
I rubbed the back of my neck “Sorry about that, little Rabbit” Seth grinned. “I didn’t mean to scare you”
God, that sexy Grin
Panty Melting.
The Air shifted, I can scent a strong males musk, it was like a bull stuck in a pen, unable to get to the female that came into heat, Teasing the bucking male - I turned my face to Seth- his long white snow colored hair now Dark like a ravens feather- his ruby eyes now Green like fresh found Emeralds- oh fuck, it didn’t hit me till now, Seth mid shifted, Thunder emerged, openly sniffed the air - lust filled the Room. And his predatory gaze was set on Sunshine. She was aroused and she was the teasing female that can get the bull to go into a frenzy.
“You like what you see female?” Thunder’s voice was deep and husky as his thumbs dipped under the waistband of his underwear, enticing her to look.
my cheeks began to heat up, I couldn’t tear my eyes away from the monster that nestled between his legs.
“I take that as a yes, little Rabbit, How about I show you a good time” thunder Winked. “Without the cat interfering of course”
“Like hell, I would let you go anywhere near her dog” Henry Spat, Black fur bristled across my arm.
Thunder laughed, it was deep and so sexy, my thighs clenched together just to try to stop the aching that gripped between my legs. but all I kept thinking was that monster between his. from the imprint, it looked big, but I wonder if it's just as big as I pictured it to be. A low growl broke me out of my thoughts, Thunder and Henry were in front of one another, nose to nose, I turned to the nightstand next to me and grabbed my doll, I knew this isn’t going to end well one way or another if they decided to go all out.
Henry’s different color iris glowed -his full lips twitched- Oh yes- I was getting under his skin “Are you afraid that I will take her from you cat?”
“Oh please, you don’t stand a chance against me, mutt”
My hand clenched tighter to the wooden doll that I had brought to my chest - My eyes shifted back and forth, watching the argument unfurl before me.
Tinkle.
Tinkle.
“I will take that as a challenge” Thunder smiled. “Winner gets the female”
Uh, what the hell is going on? Are they seriously going to fight over me?. Henry sneered and turned, walking away from thunder, he wasn’t about to be baited to whatever power trip Seth or Thunder- whoever he is now- was having.
“You will not ignore me!” Thunder hissed as a Green flamed fire engulfed his entire fist – the intense rage of heat coiled around him – tonight, growing ever brighter – the new power that swam in me intensified, almost swallowing me whole “Here, kitty, Kitty”
I rolled my eyes “Put that away before you hurt yourself” I said as I really wasn’t in the mood for a duel, I didn’t want to play the shadow wolf's game. Not tonight. I’m too tired.
I cocked my head to the side and stared Blankly at Henry, his silver and blue irises reflected a smug look behind them – Almost, like a menacing challenge “Excuse me? what did you just say?” I asked as I can feel my crazy oozing out of every fiber of my being that took me years to master the reigns of self-control. All gone right out the window right now.
“I said Put that” Before I could even finish my sentence thunder’s hand drew forward releasing the green fire that speared into me and sent me flying to the nearest wall.
“I’m sorry,” I said as I watched Henry drop to the floor. I cocked my eyebrow “I didn’t hear you over that loud pitiful cry, do you Want to Repeat that?” I asked as I watched The Deep emerald Fire that kept Hitting Henry a few times knocking him back down with each failed attempt he made to get back on his feet, I folded my arms across my naked chest “Are you sure you have nothing to say?” I chuckled, relishing at the sight of Henry being unable to stand. He could never win in a real fight against me, Sure it was amusing to watch but nonetheless. He is still weak.
“I’m not going to Fight you Thunder,” Henry said with a small grunt. “I’m not going to risk my sister's life like that”
“Then I win by default,” I said blowing out the green shadow flames from both my fist. “I will be collecting my prize now” I turned around and walked over to Sunshine who scattered across her bed jumping off to the side. My eyes widen at the sight of the doll she held like it was her lifeline.
What
The
Actual
Fuck
“I said, stay away from her” Henry Roared, jumping onto Henry’s back, his sharp fangs sinking in piercing the side of his neck. Blood trickled down from the wound.
“AHH, I hope you like what you tasted because you only get one bite” Thunder growled Reaching over his shoulder, Grabbing Henry by his hair, flinging him across the room, his back Slammed against a nearby wall, shaking the plaster loose as it tumbled on top his head.
Henry shook the pain off the best he could.
“You are going to pay for that”
“S-Stop it the both of you!” A voice yelled out as she kept her back pressed against the wall
Thunder turned Around and Saw Sunshine Stare back at him with eyes wide open as if she was a deer trapped in a pair of headlights.
His headlights.
I lifted my head up “Now Look what you’ve done mutt, you’re scaring her!” but my voice didn’t seem to register – Seth’s eyes were so fixated on my sister, it was like he was mesmerized by something, curiosity maybe?
Those eyes, the ones that instantly held me captive, Rooted to my spot, reflected fear, fear of not knowing what will happen if she ran, if that did happen, I would have no problem chasing after her, the need to claim my prize, by all means, was at the forefront, and I was ready for the great chase. But more importantly, I kept asking myself what is she doing with a soul puppet? That doll she held, only soul keepers can carve something so special.
“Please don’t hurt my brother” Sunshine begged.
A small twinge of Annoyance took over my being, I liked when she begged me, I wanted her to beg me to rut her, to ease her need with my mouth.
Fingers.
Tongue.
Prick.
“It’s Alright Sunshine” I managed to breathe out. trying my best to in a soft tone to Reassure her that she had nothing to worry about.
I let a growl reverberate from my chest, as my jaw snapped at him, threatening him to stay where he was. So, he did. Submitting to me.
“He is just being a Dick that’s all,” I said hoping my words would ease up the racing thoughts that clouded her mind and to know that I’m indeed okay.
I took three steps toward Henry, Closing the space between us, our eyes locked with more intense anger – he knew he lost, I was the winner, he submitted to me.
“What do want?” Henry Hissed, his different colored eyes were wet, it was clear, he was trying to keep his tears back.
I Leaned down where he was sitting on the floor, I grabbed a fist full of his jet-black hair from the back of his head and instantly pulled him up to his feet. “Stay the fuck away from my property” I hissed low only for us to hear before I pulled Henry away from the wall and pulled him behind me.
“Hey what do you think you are doing?” Sunshine asked as she watched Henry scratching at his captors’ steel-like grip trying to break free, but it was no use- no matter how much he would slap at his skin he never budged or at least acted like it didn’t bother him. but he kept dragging him like I was an irritating bug.
“Get out of here,” Thunder said shoving Henry out of Sunshine’s bedroom. “I'm in a rush and need to mark my property”
I turned to Face Thunder rushing forward towards him “Don’t you dare!” I yelled but it was too late with one snap of his long thin fingers, A cherry red mists covered the door frame. “Let me in there right now puppet boy!” I shouted pounding on the red mists that sealed around the entrance, but I found it unbreakable. “If you touch her, I swear I’ll kill you once this seal is down” I screamed.
Well, if he’s going to have that kind of attitude then I look forward to it – I gave Henry a pleasant smile while shutting the physical door between us, so I don’t have to look at him for another minute.
Thank God.
I turned around and pressed my back against the closed door and let out a tired sigh, A small whimper caught my ears as my eyes fell on Sunshine who sat up against the wooden headboard that was mounted on the wall behind her- her big owl eyes were the same color blue that I could never get out of my head ever since the first day I saw them staring back at me – They reflected with such sadness that could only be described as an endless sea and nothing for her to hold onto. Her thin blue nightgown pushed passed her bare knees exposing her full thick thighs as her legs were propped up against her pretty chest, I loved the way her curvy body was left exposed to me, she had no idea what I could do to her under a single touch. the dominant part of me wanted her to fear me, but the primal part of me craved to savor that look of fear and innocence on her sweet doll-like face. yet the obsessive part of me wanted to keep her safe, sheltered, and I would kill any man who dared to look her way.
A melody hummed behind the bedroom door -Ryder’s hands gently bowed a soft tune on his almost invisible violin -soothing Sunshine into a calming and relaxing state. – as she laid upon my chest, my hand stroking the top of her head. Many thoughts raced through my mind as I kept my gaze on the doll playing a lullaby. “So, you couldn’t leave it alone, could you?” I asked Ryder but he gave no response, only kept still in his place. -It didn’t take long before my ears perked up to a small breathing noise, I looked down and saw that my mate was completely asleep. My fingers softly gripped her chin tipping her face to me - My eyes memorizing the sweet look of innocence on her face -Her lips had a small rose-pink tint to them. Kissable. I leaned my face down meeting hers, my lips gently brushed against the flesh stealing a sweet and yet delicious kiss- claiming her mouth with mine. she must have felt the wetness of my tongue traced along the edges of her bottom lip when her blue diamond eye
I knew if I couldn’t have Beth under me tonight, then I would have made sure she wouldn’t forget the true pleasure of A shadow-man’s lust, the monster in me would have brought her to the edge of bliss and with one simple word, touch, whisper, her body would tip over that blissful edge releasing the visible evidence from between her legs as it gushes down like a lake. -I put her head back down on my barreled chest, my hand gently stroking the top of her crown - vowing in my head that I will show no mercy to those who dare hurt her, their death will be as painful as the pain they inflicted on her at that moment “it’s time for us to sleep this time” I said, Beth didn’t argue back but caved in my request as she felt the exhaustion take over from that blissful edge I tipped her over with my mouth just minutes ago – I let Ryder’s music that turned into a sweet lullaby sing for a while longer – the thought of me loosing control of my powers almost frightened me, the tho
There was a loud commotion that came from the kitchen followed by glass crashing - Gary goes in to see why his two best pack members are going at each other’s throats this early in the morning when he hadn’t had his first cup of coffee yet. Gary’s eyes were glued to Logan as he stood behind the black granite countertop center island holding a broken coffee pot in his hand. “What in the moon goddesses name happened in here?” Gary asked as he stared at Logan shaking the rest of the liquid out on the floor. I pointed down to Henry watching as he struggled to get up on his feet “He had it coming old man” I shouted tossing the broken coffee pot into the trash can next to me. “No one talks to me like that, not even him” I calmly said. I was at complete shock, but I shouldn’t be surprised really – for as long as I known Logan over this last year, He’s always had been a mystery to me with an unchecked temper – must be an under
Ever since Beth had arrived at the shadow-core packhouse - she has gotten my boys riled up -it’s not hurt fault. It’s the monster who made her this way. I also wanted to Protect her, but I think logan is the better fit out of us two, you know for being a hundred and twenty years older than me - he is still limber and more spry then I am - I maybe half vampire, but my wolf was just as tired as the day we lost my mate penny some time back. The Doorbell Rings. I silently thanked the moon goddess for this little intermission between logan and Henry. Goddess knows I needed it. “You Two know the Rules, no killing one another without a witness” I said turning around and walking to the living room. “I’ll be back” “This is your fault” Henry said as it was just the two of them left. “How is it my fault? you have no one to blame but yourself” I put my hand up ending the conversation between me and Logan but
It was after 8 A.M when I finally reached the corner of the local hospital where Emma A.K.A Sunshine Works, I stayed hidden behind a concrete wall that separated me from the parking lot - my lips pulled into a small smile as my eyes found what they have been searching for - They found Emma- she quietly exited the large rotating Doors that led in and out of the main lobby - She was too focused looking down at her cellphone that she didn’t even notice me standing just an arm’s reach a way of touching the bottom strands of her Chestnut brown hair with my fingertips. I’m glad she didn’t notice me- if she only knew that I was so close- It would destroy her to know that I was right here. watching. like I’ve always done - To her I might as well be a shadow, A ghost from her past that needs to stay buried there. “We shouldn’t have come here”- Gazer the wolf said in the back of Boris’s head. “I know Gazer, but I needed to see her, I miss her and I know you miss her as w
“Sunshine!” A voice yelled out from the driver’s side of a black S.U.V. that spat up. My eyes squinted as if the sun bothered my sight. “Logan?” I asked myself wondering why in the hell is he driving like a mad man especially in a hospital parking lot this early in the morning. I turned to face my co-worker Mark who had no real expression on his face - he just quietly watched the giant S.U.V. stop in front of us as Logan and Henry jumped out in a hurry. “Woah, where’s the fire guys?” I asked jokingly. “Come on quick, Gary wants you back to the house” Henry said as he Grabbed Emma’s hand Rushing her behind me. “Oh, okay” I whispered following behind Henry till we reached the S.U.V “Hey! You can’t take her like that!” Mark said as he made his voice known. “Watch me” I said as I opened the back seat “Get in” I Demanded wanting Sunshine to obey me without question and without a fight. I turned to Face Henry who stood next to me and I
I Arrived at the shadow-core pack’s main driveway, I got a call from Gary Saithe telling me to get my ass over here, Gary is A Vampire -werewolf hybrid known as Alpha to his band of misfit rogues that he likes to keep as pets, his pack was no laughing stock nor to be taken lightly as all pack leaders feared him but Mostly Feared the rogues that he took in as his own members - they were a different sort of breed, not just one race. But a mixture of good and bad. - I killed the Roaring engine to my black sports car and stepped out of the driver’s side straightening out my matching black suit that fitted around me so well. A lingering scent hung in the passing breeze, I took a deep breath inhaling it - It smelled of wet fur and cat piss that saturated the air around me. I was trying to hide my distaste for the irritating scent, but it was no use- it made my stomach flip flop. “Prince Jax of the Vampire tribe” A raspy voice Echoed. I turned arou
The bathroom was Quiet, I stood naked next to the large hot tub bath, it was almost as big as my room back at the Shadow-core packhouse but nowhere near this extravagant – the bath water was a clear ocean blue tint with a bunch of different aromas mixed in, I guess the mages here at the castle take their healing baths very seriously. I got in and slowly emerged myself under the mildly hot water, “come on buddy, where are you?” I asked as I sank deeper letting the water engulf over me completely, my eyes closed and I let my mind wonder in search for Thunder but I soon found myself back at the same woods I once roamed. “Thunder!” I yelled hoping he could hear me, but I got no answer back. I kept walking along the dull lifeless trees that were all around me “Thunder!” I yelled again -Still no answer “where can you be?” before I knew it, I was back at my old packhouse- it was quiet. But the smell of burning wood soaked the air around me -A sudden view of Allen carrying Kathy’s lif
I spent all day with Leo at the vampire knights training ground and I must say, His physical combat skills were very impressive -he is kicking my ass., but that was because I was worried about Thunder, he hasn’t made a movement all day or answered any of my mind- link calls. I know he’s there, somewhere, we shifted when Jax locked us in the room with him at Uncle Gary’s but after that night, I haven’t felt him since. “Please tell me what’s wrong so I can fix you, fix us” I kept asking him in a mind link, still no answer, only silence. Leo landed a blow on my belly, taking a cheap shot as my mind was somewhere else. I wiped the sweat from my brow, it must be high noon now that’s when the heat becomes more intense “Come on is that all you have?” I asked “You little shit” I groaned out loud with every blow Leo seemed to Land on my steel-like body -except this time, I was more like a jelly-filled doughnut absorbing every punch he tossed my way.
A sharp dull pain ached deep in my chest breaking me out of my transpiring thoughts It was morning when I Woke up in Jax’s soft bed rolling over onto my back staring up at the ceiling wondering about Sunshine and where she was at since she hasn’t returned any of my calls or texts messages since our little adventure in the kitchen, I placed my hand directly over my heart Thinking it Must be heartburn, maybe from that pizza I ate last night “Good Morning Thunder” I said chuckling to myself “You miss her too don’t you, so do I buddy” I breathed out still trying to feel him under my skin but there was no movement in my chest, not even a yawn or a whimper in my head. He must be too weak still “It’s okay, get all the rest you can and once your all better we will kill Allen and take his pack for our own” I said sitting up and shifting my naked body to the edge of the bed, my feet planted firmly on the ground, and I let out a yawn. I wondered if Jax had given his servants instructions to st
I entered my bedroom and tossed Ryder in a small cage-like box, a cherry red seal shimmered off the iron bars that were only spaced not even four fingers apart. “This box can’t keep me in here!” I said as I placed my hands on the iron bars but was pushed back. “I wouldn’t do that if I were you old man” I said as I locked the gate to the cage. I can see the rage in Ryders wooden black eyes, he was pissed that I put him in his little time outbox - I bent down to Ryder’s eye level “you see that cage is a magic neutralizing box, the more magic you use to get out the potent the zapping will be. I gritted my teeth together, you little shit “Wait till I get out of here, you will be sorry doll maker!” “We will see about that, Soul-keeper” “You know, I’m actually surprised you didn’t figure it out sooner” I said scratching my cheek. I sneered, looking at Ryder as he sat in the middle of the box - Now the real question that has b
I must have sat outside in the backyard for about two hours now. Logan was just finishing up the last bit of the Dolls energy. “The winner of the backyard brawl: Dollmaker Vs Ryder first edition - is Logan Freeman of the undershadow” Gary said in his playful referee voice. “Shut it old man” I said zapping Ryder to weaken him. “I’m not in the mood to be mocked” “Awe, come on, that was a good fight, we should have another and invite the rest of the boys over and make it into a weekly sporting event” I laughed. I bent down to pick up Ryders tiny body that had been reduced back to the size of my hand and picked it up. “What, no handshake? its customary to give your opponent a handshake- you know to show good sportsmanship” I wasn’t in the mood for Gary’s jokes “Did you know?” I asked while shaking the doll in his face. I raised a brow to Logans question? “Did I know what?” “That Logan was and has been” I said unable t
Jax’s Cellphone rings. I reached in my back pocket and seen the flashing screen with the familiar number I versed myself with, my eyes rolled in the back of my head. Annoyed that he of all people would be calling me in the middle of something. “Who is it?” Seth asked. I picked up my face and watched as Seth still managing to shove food in his mouth as we been here all day and most of the night, sunshine did say he needed a lot of meat to heal. “It’s Allen” I dropped the chewed up food from my mouth, now it don’t taste so great “Answer it” “And tell him what?, I know what he has done to you?” this wouldn’t have happened if my father would have been a better ruler over these lands, instead, Of letting the wolves do what they want, I know once I’m king, the wolf lands would change. Starting with all the Alpha’s “See what he wants, but don’t tell him that I’m alive” I want it to be a surprise when he finds out. “Ok
Logan searched the entire house for Beth until he found her in the back yard staring out passed the swaying trees, she was in her light pink nightgown he bought for her after he shredded the one she wore one night in bed–Both of her bare feet dug into the grass to feel the earth shift underneath. “What are you doing out here little one?” I asked as I stepped outside. “Waiting,” I said nervously, clenching onto Ryder Tighter. “Waiting for what?” I asked walking up behind her eyeing the same distance that she was staring off into. “For Seth to come back to us” My heart could break by her sweetness. I placed my hand on the dip of her lower back making a few circles “It could be sometime before he comes home, maybe even longer” “I know, that’s why I’m waiting, he needs a band-aid” I chuckled, removing my hand from her lower back “Little one, he is a wolf, he will heal just fine in time, he won’t need a band-aid by the time he gets
I arrived back at the silver crow packhouse; Allen was waiting for me in his office. We locked eyes as soon as I entered the room closing the door behind me - I hated his smug face, I hated everything about him, he reminded me of my father an omega to the world’s biggest asshole of a so-called Alpha of the river-pack, but Allen ruled here with an iron fist and no compassion in his heart and with absolutely no regards to his pack members life. “Now where has my new beta been at?” I asked as I placed my hands under my chin waiting for a reasonable response. “I told you, I was out stretching my legs” “For three days?” Allen asked Boris. “Yeah, my wolf was restless, had to tire him out” I leaned back in my chair “Well, I hope you’re not too tired” “Why?” I asked puzzled. “Because, I have a meeting with Alpha mark of the Deadwood pack and before he gets here, you’re going to dig up Seth’s Body” My eyes grew wide to this new
“But Jax, there is something else that I need to tell you” “what’s that?” I asked now wondering how many secrets he’s holding onto. I drew in a long breath and exhaled sharply “The morning Gary found me; I was already dead” I tilted my head to the side. “What do you mean by that?” “I mean” I tossed my hands in the air “I kicked the bucket, oddly, there was no white light for me” Just Forrest and a strange voice. “How is that possible when you’re sitting in front of me right now?” “If it wasn’t for Ryder, I wouldn’t be here, my soul would have been stuck in the woods wondering around for god knows how long” It took a moment for a flash back to pop in my head of the morning in the kitchen when Beth hugged Seth, I knew he mumbled something to her but didn’t catch what it was because I was stuck on nurse Sunshine’s fine ass. “So, she’s a soul keeper then?” Explains why Gary took her in as his own, to have a soul keeper in his
