10: Lukas
Lukas turned off the highway at Violet Cove, refuelling his bike at the first service station he found, near the edge of town, before continuing on to the address his brother had given him.
As he pulled in, one of the garage doors lifted, and he noticed that their other brother was already here. He smiled, it would be good to have the three of them together again, even if only for a week or so.
The roller door closed again as he parked his bike and dismounted, heading for the door he assumed led into the house itself. It opened before he got there, and his older brother filled the frame, leaning against it with a grin.
"Little brother," he said, happy to see him. Lukas walked over to him, grabbing his outstretched hand and pulling him into a casual hug. "Mikael," he said, with a grin, "it's been far too long, big brother." Mikael nodded, more solemnly, "Too long indeed," and turned to head inside.
Lukas followed, dropping his backp

Shadowsouled 11: Jason
Jason stormed out of the room, heading upstairs. He needed to.. he didn't know what he needed, other than space. He didn't want to even think about that possibly, let alone talk about it. It wasn't right, it couldn't be. And yet, it made sense. It would explain this feeling that had been pulling at every fibre of his being, and why it wouldn't go away. And why she seemed completely unaware of anything unnatural, why she didn't fight back when..He stopped that trail of thought as he felt his inner rage swelling to dangerous levels. Undressing, he turned the shower on hot, stepping in and letting the steaming hot water distract him, calming him. He took his time, scrubbing every inch of his toned, muscular body with the subtly scented shower gel.He stepped out in a better frame of mind, cooler and in control again. Even though that feeling tugged at him still. He sighed, drying off and wrapping the towel around his waist and reaching for his shaving kit. Taking his tim
Shadowsouled 12: Jason
It wasn't hard to find her, he just followed where the feeling was pulling him to. It got stronger and stronger as he walked, until he arrived at a large, yet dishevelled looking house, in a somewhat nicer part of town. It looked like it had been nice, once.Standing across the street, it all looked quiet. He melted into the shadows and moved silently through them, crossing the street, into the yard, and doing a full lap of the house to be sure. He could sense her, upstairs. After watching her window for a few minutes, he frowned. There was no light, no movement, and it was still fairly early. Was she asleep already? His eyes followed the shadow of a large tree that cast over the house and across her window. He could use that, and did, climbing up unseen. Peering inside, he could see most of her room, and her, asleep on her bed. He pulled out one of his small daggers, slipping it under the window and lifting it gently. It was unlocked and began sliding o
Shadowsouled 13: Ashallia
"What the hell do you mean, 'what do I need to bring'?!" she asked, her voice raised and her tone angry. She wasn't about to go anywhere with him. For one, she never seen him in her life before last night, and for another, he was absolutely terrifying. 'Except when he held me, he felt so.. perfect,' she thought, then internally scolded herself for even thinking it. Was she completely insane? He'd clearly been ready to murder someone just a moment ago. 'Though only because they'd hurt me,' her clearly malfunctioning brain added, making her wonder if she did actually need to go and get checked out by a doctor. He rubbed his forehead, looking frustrated, "My brother can check you over," he said, as though he could read her mind, "I just want to make sure you're okay." It looked like it was taking a lot of effort for him just to keep his voice calm, the guy clearly had a short temper.Shaking her head, and immediately regretting it, she winced, "I'm fine, I'
Shadowsouled 14: Lukas
Lukas had smiled as she was placed on the seat next to him, looking absolutely terrified. He kept quiet and stayed still, trying not to add to her fear. It was hard though, he could sense that she was injured, and the instinct to heal her was difficult to resist. Yet he knew they'd all have to tread carefully with this one, none of them wanted to spook her too much. Or too much more, at least. He couldn't help but laugh softly as she recoiled from Jason, right towards him. He had reached in and lifted her out, helping her to stand, which meant he could get a better look at her injury. She tried to pull away, which was something that always annoyed him. These humans never seemed to understand that he only wanted to help.Holding her firmly, he studied her face and eyes. No wonder Jason had asked them to bring the car, she was clearly concussed, and her cheekbone likely fractured. He nodded at his brothers, letting them know it was bad enough to require hi
Shadowsouled 15: Ashallia
Ashallia groaned softly as she stirred, her stomach joining in shortly after. She was starving. She stretched, before opening her eyes to see an unfamiliar room, 'Where..?' she thought, until her eyes fell on the man seated opposite, and she remembered clearly. She froze, as he was looking straight at her. "Hey," he said softly, with a friendly-seeming smile, before glancing quickly across from him. Her eyes followed, and fell on creepy guy seated on the couch with her, his hands on her feet in his lap. Gasping softly, she sat up suddenly, grabbing the edge of the couch tightly as she expected another wave of dizziness. It didn't come though, and the man opposite smiled wider, "You're okay now," he said reassuringly, "and safe." He glanced at creepy guy again, who was still just staring at her. She stared back at them both for a long moment, the room feeling full of awkward tension. The weird atmosphere was broken somewhat as a third man, the driver, jo
Shadowsouled 16: Henrik
Henrik sat through the meeting, bored out of his mind. He didn't know why they insisted he be here, it wasn't like he had any power here, they wouldn't allow it. 'For now,' he thought, shifting in his seat while those deemed more important than him continued to drone on about things that didn't affect him. He was getting impatient, and this didn't seem to be wrapping up anytime soon. They didn't even allow him to bring any of his electronic devices in here, which at least could have made passing the time easier. And so he sat, getting more and more restless as time went on. These guys might have been the 'big fish' in the pond, but they'd be nothing if not for the smaller ones like him who kept the networks running. And that was something Henrik Leighton did excellently. In fact, he had single handedly built, from the ground up, one of the most discreet and secure networks on the continent, for any kind of contraband. If people were paying goo
Shadowsouled 17: Ashallia
As they stood in the lounge, she looked up at Jason, his dark eyes studying her face as he touched it lightly. She felt nervous, and blushed when his hand moved from her cheek, brushing one of her curls back from her face. He smiled, and she couldn't help but notice how attractive he was, when he wasn't so terrifying.Even as intimidating as he was, he had that strong, chiseled kind of face she loved, with the most perfect dark eyes and hair. All three of them were attractive like that, really. His quietly confident nature intrigued her too. Lukas seemed more like Josh, charming and playful, while Mikael seemed charismatic in his own, more serious kind of way, like a natural leader type. Jason on the other hand, seemed like he didn't care much for charisma or charm, or what people thought of him at all, really, from what she had seen. She hadn't known many people like that. In such a small town as Violet Cove, people cared all too much about how other people saw t
Shadowsouled 18: Jason
Jason dragged himself away from her, as hard as it was, and let her have some space. It had taken all of his willpower to restrain himself when he saw her blushing and all wound up like that, so close to him, but he was wary of spooking her and driving her away. He sighed, opting for a cool shower himself, to help him think. They needed to start making some plans today, preferably while she slept. He didn't want her to see into that part of their world just yet, that kind of thing would send any sane person running. After he'd washed and dressed again, his head clearer, and he went downstairs to find his brothers sitting at a table out by the pool, talking quietly. They looked up when he came out, Mikael raising a questioning eyebrow. Jason nodded, "She's fine," he took a seat next to them, pulling it up to the table, "doesn't like feeling stuck here, but I convinced her to wait until tomorrow." Lukas stared at him, "She's not really going back to that
