Another dead body hits the ground as he growls and hits the already damaged wall; several other hits around the same spot reveal the long term violent relationship. He takes a deep breath and looks around his office, four almost-betas dead in what had been the longest three days of his life, dead by his own hands.He sits behind his desk and closes his eyes as he tries to think on his next moves. Who would have thought the presence of her would make such a huge difference amongst the pack members; the same ones who are now restless."That bitch... I have to get her back, one way or another..." He whispers to himself then he starts chuckling. "If they don't give my Luna back, I will just have to take theirs..." He finished with a grin.-*Meadow*I stand beside Caleb as he holds my hand firmly; he is tense, and I know why. The presence of the vampires in our land makes the pack tense too. I look down to his hand in mine and sigh blushing as I stare at my ring, I still can't believe
*Meadow*At the distance I saw them walk towards us; Queen Isilwen was glowing radiant, four drows guarding her at each side, and Alex was not far with Cara at his side. I saw Aeneas walk proudly smiling as his eyes met mine, it made me shiver slightly, his cockiness was something I would have to deal often. Behind, there were seven others who walked not far from him, but who reflected almost pain into each step they took. It was obvious to me they were not comfortable in our territory. There was an escort of five of Caleb's trusted warriors around them at a safe distance. Our pack was gathered behind us, they were tense yet behaving wonderfully, I was so proud."Wolf King, we meet again... and the beautiful, gorgeous Luna... Meadow, you look stunning." His words took me by surprise, making me blush and hesitate for a moment. Caleb growled lowly and I was forced to overcome the uncomfortable sensation fast."Aeneas, smooth as always. Welcome to our land, our pack welcomes you and yo
*Meadow*"Rowen, do you have a place to gather and talk? We have to start talking about what will happen next. I have a bad hunch on his next moves." Aeneas began and Caleb nodded."Let's go to the command center, your people can stay here if they wish to, no one will harm them and they will be treated as family." Caleb said as he pulled me gently into his arms and we started to move."I will only bring Camilla with me, the rest will stay and get drunk with blood. I suspect you had something to do with the elixir, Queen Drow." He said without looking at her, Queen Isilwen's soft giggle made Aeneas stop walking and look at her."I heard you creatures of the night enjoy the taste of our blood... a little bit has been harvested as a treat." Her soft melodic voice almost whispered, but I sensed something else behind her words. I perked a brow at her and she was grinning. Caleb shook his head and pulled me tight to him as we entered the building.Aeneas closed his eyes and the tall, sl
Breaking through the line of wolves, he moves to his target. He pushes bodies left to right and aims specifically to the one he faced many times before. He doesn't have much time, it has to be perfect, he has no other choice; failure is not an option.He howls and more of his wolves run behind him, a deadly wreck ball pushing thru the lines of the enemy. He finally finds his target and crashes against him with all his force. The young wolf whimpers and loses consciousness as his head hits the pavement.He smirks and sinks his teeth in his neck, breaking the furred skin a little; then he quickly releases him and bites his own paw and lets some of his blood slip in before the skin regenerates.It was done, he made it. A new pawn in his bloodline now ready to be used. He hears the howls and feels the earth shake, the sign that they need to leave now. He drops the body on the floor and orders the retreat. He needed to move fast away from there, so they won't suspect anything.-*Cal
*Meadow*"Aeneas... what can we do? How can we break their connection?" I asked and shuddered, watching Gideon caressing the picture of Agape through the screen. I felt so sorry for him, he was tense, sad, angry. Nothing was being easy for him."I don't think there is much I can do without doing something you might not like it... and that is, I need to taste her blood..." He said and Gideon moved his head away from the screen for the first time to look at him. I on the other hand, was trying hard to believe he was asking this because, well, he is a vampire, and they work on blood as well. I really hope I am not mistaken in this."And if you taste her blood, you will... what exactly?" I asked, wanting some confirmation. He chuckled and smiled at me."Smart Luna; we make our bonds in the same way, through bloodlines. We create deeper ones though, but they work in more subtle ways than the ones of this demon. If I have a taste of her blood, I will know more about the bond and understa
*Meadow*Now I see the result of their ambush and it gives me chills, if Cornelius could hit like this to such a large number, we had a strong and difficult fight ahead. Demark and Smithson's pack were on its own a large group, probably over 300 together, and they almost all looked affected."And he just did a hit and run?" Aeneas snorted, Caleb frowned as he looked at him."I don't like it either, but it is what we found when we got there." He replied.From a side I saw a tall, muscled man giving orders and talking to nurses, he was redheaded and reminded me of vikings. A viking King. He sighed as he looked around and then headed towards us, his eyes on Caleb as he walked up the stairs towards the command center's entrance. "Most of my pack came unharmed, Smithson's people got hit a bit harder, and he blacked out for a bit but is ok now, he is on his way at the last group of cars. And wow there..." He finished as he stopped dead on his tracks and looked at me, I blushed immediatel
He took a deep breath and pushed the button that allowed his voice to reach the locked area, he instinctively touched the screen as if he could touch her. "Hi..." was all he was able to murmur and he saw Agape's head snap towards the camera."Hi again..." her raspy voice echoed through the intercom. Her mouth was dry after so many tears, she was still stuck in bed. Her eyes red from crying, he sucked a deep breath before he could talk again."I know it is maybe too soon... but... I want to come in, if you are ok with it." He said and she shivered with just the thought. Her eyes grew wide, there was a mix of emotions growing inside her, she already had felt his closeness more than once, his scent and his voice did things on her body and mind that had her confused. When he started talking to her through the intercom it surprised her, but now after a few times, the thought of facing him was a little scary."Come..." she finally whispered, biting her lips as she tried hard not to panic.
*Caleb*As I walked in, the sight broke my heart again; Meadow was shivering and sobbing, she was clinging to the sheets and trying to cover herself up above her head. I approached her slowly, Gideon advised me something he did with Agape and at this point, I was ready to try anything. I sat carefully next to her and she moved slightly away. I pushed the sheet away from her tear covered face and her frightened eyes bored my soul. Cornelius was going to pay for what he did to her."Princess... it's ok, I am here..." I whispered to her and she closed her eyes, taking deep breaths.I laid down next to her and gently slid my arm around, she quivered but soon, she relaxed a little and reacted by wrapping her arms desperately around me. "Why does it hurt so much?" she whispered and I squeezed her tight to me. Her body was under some physical pain and my body could feel it as well."Cornelius is controlling Smithson and made a fake bond with him towards you. His corrupted claim over you w
