THE ILL-FATED MATCH CHAPTER NINE
ARRIVALGabriel woke up just in time to find his cousin and beta, Shawn Adams, holding up a bowl of water over his face. His eyes betrayed his intent and immediately clouded with disappointment when he discovered that Gabriel's eyes were open.They stared at each other for a full minute before Shawn burst out laughing.His best friend, the future gamma of the pack, Adrian McCall, appeared holding his cell phone. "Shit! We could have caught some action on camera. Why the hell did you wake up now?""Really? I worry about Clara's and Raphael's pranks. I never thought that I would have to add my cousin's and bestfriend's to the list."Adrian stared at him wide eyed and open mouthed."What?" Gabriel demanded."You succeeded in doing the same thing to me while I was asleep just last week. You even caught it on camera and now you…""Oh please, everyone should have their own fair share of getting pranked. Those kids are my fair share. You do not have anyone else to play pranks on you except S

I know you have so many questions about yourself and your true family. But before I begin I want you to know that your father and I really love you and we did what we did to protect you. You will understand it all very soon. You are Zia Lothbrok, born on the ninth day in July to Abel and Celeste Lothbrok. You have no siblings. You are a fae or fairy, anyone you'd wish to call it. I'm sure you must have grown up believing these things do not exist. But they do. It's who you are.By now all our kind would have been destroyed. Except you. You were much easier to hide since you were just a baby. One of our own,who was banished for unjustly killing a human, betrayed us. He joined the Alkyaries, our greatest enemies, and gave them our secrets. But he was also killed. He was foolish enough to have trusted his enemies. Trust me you'll

A FRESH STARTNo sooner had Gabriel descended the stairs than Shawn, Adrian and Mitchell burst through the door."She needs to rest," he said before any of them could say a word."We'll wait," Shawn grinned, earning him a suspicious look from Mitchell."Suit yourselves" he said and walked towards the bar."Why do you seem so eager to see another woman?" Mitchell grumbled playfully."Oops my bad. You can make me wear a blindfold." Shawn began, grinning. "Or… better still…" he continued, turning to face Gabriel. I change my mind Gabriel. I'm no longer interested in seeing your mate.Gabriel rolled his eyes and Mitchell chuckled."Fix me a drink too" Adrian called out to Gabriel."Yes my Lord." Gabriel murmured.He sat on one of the bar stools and examined the strand of fur.Mitchell suddenly gave a moan of pleasure and Adrian who had been so intent on reading a message on his phone looked up, and to his horror, Shawn and Mitchell were having a makeout session."You guys should get a roo

MYSTERYChapter 12"Come with me" Gabriel ordered when he breezed back into Selena's room."Give me a minute" she said and rushed to the bathroom to hurriedly don a bathrobe."Where are we going?" She asked."My study""Why does your study seem so far away from civilization?"Selena was forced to ask because they had passed two long dark passages already."Don't blame me. I merely inherited it from my father.""I need to meet him""You definitely will"At last they were at the study.Gabriel swiped open the impressive door made out of sturdy oak with a key card and Selena cocked an eyebrow."Really? Restricted access? What did your father stash in here?"Gabriel gave her a look. "Some people are just so particular about their privacy"Selena's mouth hung open as her eyes took in the shelves of books. So many books.A whole computer system stood in one corner of the spacious room.From the high ceiling hung an ornate, elegant chandelier.The finely carved chair and table were also made

"So what happened next?" Selena asked impatiently.Beatrice had paused, returning her full attention to the road.Nicholas and Gabriel had allowed her to be the one behind the wheel only because she was the only one who knew exactly where they were headed.They both also understood that Beatrice was particular about being so proper.She preached the full attention of the driver during the drive. No distractions whatsoever.This included no talking except when necessary.She only indulged Selena because she pitied the situation of her late friends' daughter."The Alkyaries had been so intent on ending our lives that they hadn't noticed the approach of the two fairies, Celeste and Abel— your parents." Beatrice continued."They worked their magic and voila! we were delivered."Goddess! They had looked so scary doing their thing that I thought they were like a higher level of predators who had come to destroy the competition in order to claim their prey." Beatrice chuckled."When we becam

"Why can't I hear them?""The witch…" Nicholas said by way of explanation.Beatrice rolled her eyes. "Remember she said she wanted a private conversation." Beatrice reminded with emphasis on the word 'private'Gabriel paced the living room restlessly, occasionally returning the cat's evil stare.He was already considering going to pound on the door, when Esmeralda and Selena walked into the living room.His eyes ran through the length of Selena as though he was trying to confirm if the witch had done something to her."I'll take you to the siren's sea."

THE PARENTS"Selena," Gabriel whispered.Selena found herself relaxing against him and had to bite back a moan.He bent his head and his lips brushed the side of her neck. "You have no idea how good you smell."She felt her knees buckle as Gabriel grazed her neck with his canines.He spun her around to face him.She let out a gasp as she gazed into his bright silver eyes."You're mine." He whispered into her ear. "Say it."He took her earlobe between his teeth and tugged gently.Selena moaned and her hold tightened on his arms."Say it Selena." He urged and sucked gently on her neck."I'm yours Gabriel," she moaned. "I'm all yours."Gabriel growled in satisfaction.She shivered as she felt his stubble graze the side of her face.His mouth was just a whisper away from hers.Her eyes fell closed in anticipation.Selena's stomach dropped in disappointment as she felt his chaste kiss on her forehead.She slowly opened her eyes.

She answered somewhat confused."If you didn't drop it there, who did?" She wondered.Gabriel's jaw tightened and his eyes hardened."What?" She asked."I think I know who did it." He answered through gritted teeth."Are you going to tell me who it is?""No. I have to be very sure.""Alright. If you say so."They both fell silent and Selena thought of what to say next."Aren't you hungry? I made lunch."He ran his eyes along the length of her."I'm so damn hungry." He murmured. His brilliant blue eyes blazing.Selena swallowed as she felt the heat of his gaze. She tugged at the hem of her shirt."Do you want me to bring the food to your room or would you prefer to eat downstairs?" She asked slightly breathless."Honey, I can eat anywhere. Anytime." He answered.Selena felt the heat rise to her cheeks."You have to be more specific." Sh

THE ILL-FATED MATCH CHAPTER EIGHT
SECRETSSelena groaned in pain as she sat up on the bed.She tried to gingerly feel her back with her fingers and winced when she touched a swollen bruise. She dreaded how much it was going to hurt when she took a bath.The events of the previous night came back to her, including the dream she had had. It had felt so real. As she mulled over the events of the dream, trying to decode it's hidden meaning, she heard her father's footsteps as he walked past her door.At once she was filled with dread about facing her father. She debated about staying in her room all day and concluded that it was an act of cowardice.She was almost twenty. A grown woman. She thought. She must learn to be bold and start trying to address uncomfortable situations instead of ignoring them.On the bright side, she had a new job and a seemingly nice boss who was so sexy, as attractive as hell and….
