23: Ashallia

2024-10-29 19:42:56Ashallia left the kitchen feeling awkward after Jason's apology. He'd sounded genuine, but why would he feel protective of her? He didn't even know the first thing about her. And yet.. she didn't know the first thing about him either, and somehow felt inexplicably drawn to him. Was it the same for him? Was that all it took to make him feel like that?
She headed back upstairs, wanting both physical- and head-space. As she shut her door, her phone chimed and she frowned. She'd turned the group chat notifications off, who was trying to message her?Grabbing her phone, she lay on the bed, noticing a bunch of message from Pete, and one from Dane. 'Shit, I forgot to call in sick,' she thought, sending Pete an apology. She hoped he wouldn't be too caught out by her not turning up for her shift.Opening Dane's, she felt a pang of guilt, "Where are you? Are you okay?" it said. She wondered how much he'd heard the previous night. "I'm okay, just at a friend's" sheRelated chapters

She moved her hands to his shoulders, her nails digging in as she cried out, the sound an erotic mix of both pain and pleasure. It hurt.. but it felt so good. He hesitated, only the head fully inside, and kissed her neck, whispering, "More?" She nodded, "Yesss," tilting her head back and closing her eyes as he pulled her hips down harder, until he filled her completely. "Mmmmm, fuck.. you feel so good, Ash," he said, closing his eyes and starting to thrust in and out of her gently. She gasped, moving her hips as his hands guided them, until they found a rhythm of their own. He laid back, moaning loudly as she rode him, his hands moving over her hourglass curves and up to her breasts, caressing and squeezing them, pinching her nipples until her body tensed, her inner muscles tightening around his thick cock deep inside. He groaned, releasing them, then pinching them again as his cock reached the deepest part of his thrust, repeating it in time with her,
Shadowsouled 25: Jason
Jason gasped, his whole body shivering as everything slowly returned to normal, his darkness slowly receding back to within him. He groaned as he tried to move again, feeling completely drained, and carefully moved off her, laying beside her and pulling her into him. She seemed to be out cold, and his stomach knotted as he thought of how she might react when she woke. Sighing, he nuzzled his face into her neck, breathing in her beautiful scent. He hadn't known it would happen this way, but he was glad she was finally his, even if she didn't know it yet. It would take time, but the darkness would become a part of her, until she was as strong as he was now, a full 'Shadowsouled', as the few of her kind that knew of their existence called them. Her former kind, he corrected, smiling and wrapping his arms tighter around her. He'd grow stronger from his too, much stronger, and some of that power would flow through to his brothers in turn, and their cousins,
Shadowsouled 26: Greg
Greg gazed out the small, rounded window, as the private plane they were on finally touched down at the rural airport, Henrik tapping his foot impatiently next to him. He knew his boss was anxious to get back to Violet Cove and get things moving already, and as he looked at his phone for about the hundredth time since they left, he grimaced. It was already well after 9.30am. The airport had been exruciatingly slow at clearing them for take off, and his boss's nerves were beyond frayed. "What the hell is taking so long?!" Henrik complained, as the plane sat on the tarmac near the terminal, "I need to get off this damn plane already!" Greg shifted nervously opposite him, sensing the man's temper building. "Ma'am," he called politely to the attendant, "we really are quite short on time," he said, and she nodded, "Of course, Sir, I'll check what the delay is. I'm sure you'll be able to disembark in just a moment."She got up and walked towards the front of the plane,
Shadowsouled 27: Ashallia
Ashallia awoke feeling dazed, and.. odd. She yawned, rubbing her eyes sleepily, thinking of the night before. A part of her hoped it was just some crazy dream, especially as she lifted her head, looking around the room and finding herself alone. Daylight beamed in to the room, and she wondered how long she had been asleep. She slowly sat up, holding the blanket tighter around her as she realised she was still naked, and looked for her phone. As her eyes found it, she noticed the note on top, and reached for it. Opening it, she read, 'Hope you're feeling okay. We're out today, but use the house as you please. I grabbed you some extra clothes and school books if you need them. See you tonight, J.' Surprised that they would leave her to do as she liked, she wondered what had pulled all three of them away from the house today, and hoped it wasn't anything like she'd overheard them planning. She pulled the blanket up around her bare shoulders, feeling a chill, which t
Shadowsouled 28: Mikael
Mikael had been the easy choice for the driver, with Lukas being by far the best in the oversight role, and Jason's stealth better used elsewhere. It wasn't a hard role to play, either. Opening doors, grabbing bags, and sitting there with his mouth shut. The hardest part had been getting out of the fast moving car just at the right moment, and he'd executed that perfectly. The resulting crash had been even better than he'd hoped, with the car ending up lodged awkwardly on top of the big rig's front end, as they both burst into flames. Henrik had been inside, he'd assured that, discretely switching on the child lock as he'd closed his door. A shame that his first hand had opened his own door though, both would have been better. 'Still, if he talks..' Mikael thought as he stared at the pathetic wreck of a man before him, chained to the floor of one of the filthy shipping containers where Henrik had kept some of the people they'd been planning to traffic.
Shadowsouled 29: Ashallia
Ashallia stared out the window, watching the rolling hills drift by as the bus made its way towards Inglewood. She looked at her phone, not even 30 minutes had passed. Sighing, she reached for her bag at her feet, pulling out an extra cardigan she'd thrown in and covering herself in it like a blanket. She closed her eyes, trying to sleep some of the way, but it was hard with that feeling of something pulling her back. It just didn't seem to go away, no matter how much she tried to ignore it. Eventually drifting off in spite of it, she woke up some time later, blinking as she opened her eyes to see the farmland around her now. She yawned and stretched, wondering how long she'd been sleeping, then realised that the feeling had changed. Not gone, but.. different. Lessened.It was reassuring, and she couldn't help but smile as she checked her phone again, seeing that it was only about an hour from their expected arrival time. Soon enough, the brigh

The cars in front of them dwindled, either at exits, or by finally passing the old bus, and they slowly drew closer to it. As they sat behind it, Mikael glanced at him, waiting for his brief shake of the head before he pulled into the other lane to overtake it. Jason's head spun round as he felt the sensation changing, and he knew she must be on board. Lukas understood, and immediately began tapping lightly on his tablet, "It pulls in at Inglewood Central," he said, "No scheduled stops before then." That was all Mikael needed to put his foot down, knowing they'd easily make it there first. And they did. Mikael parked in one of the quieter upper levels, and they stepped out of the car, each immediately going seperate directions and melting into the shadows the first chance they could do so unseen, heading towards the bus terminal. They arranged themselves so that between the three of them, they could see almost the entire area, Lukas and Mikael watching
Shadowsouled 31: Ashallia
Ash stared at the shadowy tendrils that seemed to be trying to reach out to each other, both stunned and fascinated. As they finally touched, she felt suddenly slammed with the awareness of another, right there in front of her. She still couldn't see them, only feel them, but it felt like emotions and sudden realisation both flowed through the strange forms on contact, and her eyes went wide, realising that it was him. He was stunned by it too, she could feel it, but he reacted fast, and a split second later she was trapped, held tightly with his arm around her waist and a hand over her mouth. She tried to struggle and kick, clawing at his arms and hands, but he ignored it, continuing to hold her firm. "Stop it!" he growled in her ear, before burying his face in the curve of her neck and breathing her in deeply, "you know I'm too strong, and I'm not going to let you go."Still struggling, she knew he wasn't lying. She could sense him, all of hi

Shadowsouled Epilogue: An End and a New Beginning
One year and six months later:The bunker had provided exactly what they'd sought, though its origins were still shrouded in mystery.They'd been able to set up something of a home here, secure and well defended. Lukas had been able to reverse engineer the phone they'd taken from Craig, and not only been able to use its new technology, but also trace the last few members that posed a significant threat, along with the last of their munitions.He'd also been able to send lengthy transcripts and history to several other news networks not yet taken over by Newscience, who were more than eager to break the story of his other, shadier organisation, and its links to his other businesses and donation recipients. The story had rocked the country, with many politicians' and business' involvement being publicly exposed. Newscience had collapsed, along with many underground smuggling networks, with enough of an impact to make any who might fill the void feel more than a little wary. They heard
Shadowsouled 72: Jason
He felt her rush of emotion as she uttered the word, and he smiled wide, taking her hand and placing the ring on her finger. She blushed brightly, and he could feel his own cheeks flushing a little, and pulled her down beside him, wrapping her in his arms as he kissed her deeply. His own rush of emotion only got stronger, and he let it overwhelm him, knowing she'd feel just how deep his love was for her. And he felt hers too, overwhelming her as she returned his kiss, softly and tenderly, and for a long moment it was as though only the two of them existed, wrapped up in each other's deep feeling of love. When they finally moved apart, she was smiling wide at him, still blushing, but happy. So happy. He felt that too, within himself, despite everything, and he never wanted to be without it again. Or without her. "I love you," she whispered softly, and he touched his nose gently to hers, "I love you," he responded, and her face brightened even more. He kissed her again, and they lost
Shadowsouled 71: Ashallia
Ash returned his kiss with a sense of wonder, feeling that incredible rush of darkness, and now everything from him. Only that everything from him was everything from her, too, and the arousal they both felt was spiralled upwards again, more intense than ever. She suddenly felt an all encompassing need for him, and clamped her muscles tight around him, drawing her hips back slowly. He gasped, breaking their kiss, and she moved her hands, placing them on the tree trunk behind her to support herself as she began moving her hips back and forth, using her muscles in time with them. He swore under his breath and began thrusting in time with her, burying his head in the curve of her neck again as he moaned in intense pleasure. She did the same, feeling her own pleasure being heightened by his, as his was by her own, climbing higher and higher. His thrusts grew harder and rougher, as his gaze turned more intense, and she moved her hands to around his neck, holding herself up and letting hi
Shadowsouled 70: Jason
Jason stared wide-eyed at the large concrete structure. This was a lot more than just a bunker, he realised, and wondered if it was truly abandoned. He squatted low, motioning for Ashallia to do the same, and crept closer slowly, keeping his eyes and ears alert for any kind of activity. Yet it all seemed still, and he wondered who would ever build something like this, and then just leave it. It looked advanced for the time it must have been here, too. Jack looked to have been in his 50s, at least, and he'd said it had been here at least that long. It was incredibly strange, but it could also be incredibly useful, especially with the tunnels he mentioned. He pulled out his phone, lifting it up to snap a picture, and sent it to the others. Even then there was no movement, and he exchanged a look with Ash, who looked as confused as he did. "Who do you think built it?" she asked softly, her voice barely audible, and he shrugged. "I have no idea," he said, feeling absolutely perplexed, "

Ash froze as she turned and saw the second man with a crossbow, and reached out for Jason. He turned, and she heard him sigh deeply as the stranger stepped closer, keeping his crossbow aimed at them. He seemed unable to decide who to focus it in though, shifting between them two of them, looking tense, and at least a little bit afraid. "Jack," he called out suddenly, with a thick northern accent, "I've got 'em over 'ere," he said, lowering his voice as he spoke to the two of them instead. "How many more o' ye are there?" he asked, and Jason sighed again. "Just the two of us, for now," he said, as he slowly moved in front of Ash, putting her between him and the large tree. "The fuck ye mean, 'for now'?" another voice asked, coming around from behind the tree, where the first shooter had been. Jason shrugged, looking far too casual, though she could sense his tension through their connection, and assumed it was deliberate. "More are coming," he said calmly, "but we mean no harm. Just
Shadowsouled 68: Jason
Jason pulled her into an embrace again, kissing her deeply, letting her feel all of his desire for her. It had been too long, he needed her, and he could feel her need for him too. It only made it even harder to control his own. He sighed deeply as he pulled away from her a moment later, feeling Lukas coming quickly towards them through the shadows. She could feel it too, he knew, though he still felt her mild disappointment as he broke the kiss. They needed to find somewhere alone, and soon. He gave her an affectionate smile, and she returned it, her cheeks looking flushed with arousal. Lukas moved into their shadow a moment later, raising an eyebrow as he looked at the two of them. "Hope I'm not interrupting," he said with a grin, only making her cheeks turn a darker shade of pink. Jason smiled, shaking his head at his brother, amused, "Not yet," he said, making Ash's eyes widen. He took her hand then, and turned to Lukas, "We'll go further on foot, if you'll wait for the others h
Shadowsouled 67: Ashallia
Ash smiled, feeling an enormous sense of relief as each of them stepped out of the shadows in the small dining room of the old house, finally safe. Or safer, at least. "So, where to?" asked Alex, and Mikael sighed, "Almost anywhere but here, but first," he turned and gave Jason a look that made him nod, before taking another one of those tiny devices from the seam of his jeans. "You're going to blow it up?" Ash asked, her eyes wide, and Alex patted her shoulder, "Let's call it, 'helping it collapse'," he said, sounding apathetic. "You don't care? That it'll be gone?" she asked, a touch of sadness in her voice, and Jason shook his head, "It's just a building," he said softly, "Everything that has ever meant something to me, will still live on." He reached over to touch her cheek, and she blushed, knowing he included her as part of that. He kissed her forehead softly, and she smiled up at him, before realising that they were all looking at her, waiting. "What?" she asked, confused, an
Shadowsouled 66: Lukas
Lukas headed back down, unable to contain a small smirk as he stepped out back in the room with the others, "They're fine," he said, "Just.. busy for a moment." Mikael sighed and Cameron rolled his eyes, "Now, of all times?" he asked, and Lukas shrugged. "They'll do what they need to," he said quietly, "and from the sound of that collapse, we may not get to the surface until Alex and Nate get here anyway." Cameron looked at Mikael then, tilting his head, "How long has it been? Maybe that was them starting to dig us out?" he said, sounding hopeful. Mikael frowned in thought for a moment, but shook his head gently, "I doubt the collapse will have reached the surface, given how far down we are, and Ash should have heard them if they tried the stairs." He looked questioningly at Lukas, who shrugged, "She didn't mention hearing them." Cameron sighed, crossing his arms and resting back against some crates, "So, we just wait? Until they're done being 'busy'?" he said, sounding impatient no
Shadowsouled 65: Jason
Jason pulled Ashallia under him more, covering her protectively as the room continued to shake, more dust and chunks of concrete falling around them. "Are you guys alright?" he asked, trying to see through the dust towards them. He heard Cameron coughing, which was certainly an improvement on him being unconscious just a few minutes before, and Mikael and Lukas groaned softly. "We're okay," Lukas said, his voice sounding strained, "Is that all of them?" he asked, and Ashallia coughed again, trying to cover her nose and mouth with her sleeve, "I could only sense him, I transferred what I could from you two.." she said weakly, and Cameron groaned a soft, "Thank you." As the room fell still and silent again, they waited a long moment, then began to slowly get up. Looking around the room, a sense of dismay filled them all. Large chunks of the ceiling had caved, and streams of dust stopped and started in various places, making the whole thing look unstable, and worse, he saw that the sta
