Luciana's pov My knees slammed on the dirt, scraping against the tiny stones buried between the cracks of the soil. I groaned when his rough hand wrapped around my tresses and tugged my head back harshly until our eyes meet. I glared into his with hatred as he shot me stares of disgust. " What li
Luciana's pov His laughter made my fingers ache to wrap around his throat and tear it off. I loathed this man. He knelt beside me and I could feel him just brushes away from my body. Fury burned in my chest, disgust and anticipation for what was about to happen. " You're going to be a good little
Tears flowed down my cheeks and my lower lip tremble. " Stop!" I screamed, it's loud and tearing from my throat. A cold chill raced down my spine when all the spectators burst out in laughter. They loved seeing this. We were their entertainment. " Stop!" I screamed louder. " Leave him! Release h
Luciana's povThe cheers were loud. The thrums of heartbeats were loud. Or perhaps, the thrumming heartbeat belonged to me. I stilled my anxiety and pushed down the fear of Siri's going back on his word and having them cut off Shawn's. I held my breath as the towering man approached. His footstep
Luciana's pov Gregor's massive form lunged for me and even with his sudden movement, adrenaline pumped inside me and I managed to shift to the side. A little because of the restraints from the chain, but a little saved me from getting slashed into pieces. I gagged as the silver chain tightened and
Instead. Determination. Determination pushed me forward. And as he pounced forward, his sharp big teeth aiming for my throat I shifted on my back and kicked up my legs, my claws aiming for under his belly. As he is above me, claws and teeth aiming for my death, I am beneath him, aiming for his.
Luciana's pov The truth is. I hated this fucking world. I hated the fact that I was always in hiding. I loathed that I had no friends, no education, and had to learn everything on my own. I hated that I never got to grow up with my mom. Nor ever had that feeling of being safe. I hated that I spe
Luciana's pov Gregor's teeth sank deeper into my skin, severing the bond Shawn and I had shared. It feels like a piece of my soul was being torn apart and a piece of his that he shared with me was being ripped away. The pain was excruciating. The vomit which had tickled my throat rose and I did n
Raiden's povWhat had I ever seen in Dayna? Why did I ever give her the time of day? Why did it take me this long to realize she was a complete monster?My wolf shook through the restraints of my mind, simmering with rage. I could no longer hold back and stand up, startling Amelia when I heard her s
Raiden's povMy wolf felt it. I felt it. Something about this girl and how she made me feel was different. A good different. And as I stare into her piercing eyes, I register that she is no ordinary human, at least not to me. 'Raiden!' Damon's voice pierces through the mind link, pulling me out of
Amelia's povHis hand was warm, the feeling alone sending jolts of electricity through the veins in my arms until my entire body could feel his touch. His thumb starts to trace little circles on my skin, and I am instantly aware of how much bigger his hands are compared to mine.I swallowed once mor
Amelia's povI narrowed my eyes on him while trying to fight off the warm flush creeping up my neck by his words. " You don't get to boss me around," I huffed. Despite my words, I find myself settling on the red and white checkered blanket. I crossed my legs beneath me, thankful when a gust of cool
Amelia's povRaiden's smile grew more as he gently pulled me out of the car, his hand strong and warm, clutching me like he was scared I'd let go. The feeling of him holding my hand, just my hand sent more tingles racing through me. My feet sink into the grass, the blades brushing against my ankles
Amelia's pov The excitement started to build as we moved deeper into the forest. I am not sure if it was the thrill of the unknown or just the thrill of being alone with Raiden himself, but something was making my heart race and my stomach fill with butterflies. I chewed on my lower lip, wondering
Amelia's povRaiden's grin widened and I knew he could see right through my lying excuse. " Right baby, let's go with that lie," smirking while he shifts the car back into gear. My ego would not make me stay quiet or let him be right so with a glare I snapped. " It's not a lie!" His chuckles move
Amelia's povNo, I couldn't fall for him. I wouldn't. My breath catches in my throat and I press my forehead against the glass, hoping that the coolness can somehow stop the heat running through my body. However, it didn't and this time I actually am not surprised. Raiden's mere presence was too o
Amelia's pov My breath catches in my throat, my cheeks reddening more hot. But it's not the heat of embarrassment that I had hoped for. It's the heat of need, desperate tickling need. Which is all the more frustrating. My pulse is racing and no matter how much I try to deny the feeling he invokes
