Analyn POV Magic pounded through my veins as I watched the fake Athena attack Konrad. Her lasso of rope was wrapped around my son tightly, pinning his arms to his sides. He looked fire-breathing angry; I hoped, for the first time, Konrad did spit fire at her to fight her off. If she hurt him---!"You've been after Theo! I know you for the demon you are, succubus!' Cold iron was the first line of defense against a demon. Our backyard was protected for the safety of our children. They were special with their abilities as well as being the sons and daughter of an Alpha, but they were still small children. My eyes fell on their playset and I used magic to push the demon back as fast and hard as I could until she hit the metal slide. I knew I wouldn't have much time. Her reflexes might be slowed because it was daylight right now, but she was a demon of who knew what kind of power---I had to get her secured before she hurt my babies! Grabbing the nearest swing with my mind, I tugged i
Theodore POVAnger increased my response to Analyn's attack on my Bunny. The helpless look on Bunny's face made my heart squeeze.I honestly hadn't intended to shake Ana so hard. Her head had snapped back and forth on her neck as if she was a ragdoll in my arms; I realized, too late now, Ana hadn't fought back because she'd reacted to Ambrose's Alpha Command to "Stop." "I didn't mean..." I was horrified. I didn't mean to keep shaking her after she stopped already. Ambrose cut me off with a slice of his hand through the air. His mouth was a thin line as he took Ana from me, holding her in his arms as if she was far more fragile than we knew her to be. "I'm taking Bunny away. The demon. Demoness. Succubus. I'm taking her." My voice shook. The alpha was eerily calm and it was never a good thing. If I hurt Ana in any way, I was doomed. I knew how deeply Ambrose loved her and he wasn't above to kill his own beta for her. I couldn't decide what to call Bunny with Ambrose staring at me
Irinira POV"Take your clothes off." I wasn't in the mood to play nice. Seduction was for sinners who wanted to pretend they were saints, not sinners who were embracing their sins with me. Neither I nor Theo needed to be told which category he fell into now. "You aren't going to offer to play a game with me? Fulfill a fantasy?" Theo said. A small smile teased his lips as he looked at me. My eagerness must be amusing to him. I didn't have the patience for his playing or any playing at all. My hunger was a gnawing ache in my belly; my whole body hurt from the burns inflicted by the iron the woman had used on me. Grimacing, I offered, "If you close your eyes, I can change my voice. I can't do anything fancy right now. I'm hurt. I'm hungry. I'm not able to offer more. Take it or leave it." If Theo chose to 'leave it' with me, then I was going to get gone as fast as I could hobble away. I'd have to leave him to find another victim which I didn't want to do. Prey was pretty easy to
Theodore POVI snaked my arms around Irinira, refusing to let go as she squirmed. We had been lying in bed together after I had made love to her all night. We had lost count on how many times."Let go already!" she let out a blissful laugh."Nope. You are not disappearing on me tonight, Bunny," I laughed along with her. She had shifted back into her human body after having her fill with me."You know my real name, so why do you keep calling me Bunny? Do you hate it?"I laughed again as she had such a serious look on her face. "No, silly. I just find you pretty, so the nickname is fitting."Irinira frowned. "I am not pretty. You saw my real form. I look like a monster. Nothing like those sexy wolf girls you are used to. So if you think I am pretty, you're gone crazy or you are making fun of me."I pressed her harder against the bed and hovered over her, my eyes fixated on her beautiful amber eyes that were full of lust. She licked her lips as if she was still hungry for me, but there w
Irinira POVI made myself invisible as soon as the Alpha barged in on our intimate time. I was disappointed that I couldn't spend more time with Theo.I was acting like I wanted to go, but in reality, I had no intention of leaving him.I stayed in the shadows so I could overhear their conversation. I wanted to make sure he was safe. What if that Alpha was here to punish Theo? I didn't want him to be hurt because I was careless.I heard the Alpha say he wanted to get rid of me. It was nothing new. I knew I did not belong here, and it was almost time for me to go. The pull from this earth was not as strong as the pull I felt from my demon world. I was weaker here. I was on edge.If Analyn attacked me and tried to send me back using her fae spells next time, I won't be able to make it.But I felt a flutter in my stomach when I heard Theo say he wanted me to stay with him. The sincerity in his voice made me want to try harder not to leave. Maybe I'll go to Analyn and beg for her forgivene
Irinira POVDemons don't fall in love.I thought as I stared at the fae in front of me. She had these utterly ridiculous words coming out of her mouth, and I didn't know what to say.So I laughed."I'm not in love with Theo. You are wrong," I nearly whispered after I got done laughing.Analyn shrugged. "Yeah? What else would you call it? Chemical imbalance? Do demons have chemical imbalances like people? I know you bleed, but are you really alive?""I...I don't know." My head was cloudy with confusion. "But please, let me stay here a little bit longer. I promise I will leave eventually and I won't harm anyone. I just want a little more time with Theo."Ana went quiet and furrowed her eyebrows. She looked like she was considering it."Alright," she said after a while. "I will let you stay. But keep away from my children until I can fully trust you.""What about the alpha?" I asked."I will try to reason with Ambrose. He may not listen at first, but he loves me. So if I explain some thi
Ambrose POVI squinted at Anna, trying to figure out what the hell was wrong with her.When I pulled her away from Irinira after their fight, she woke up shortly and was frantic. She was crying hysterically about how Irinira was trying to hurt our children.She was angry and wanted to destroy her immediately, even though Theo seemed to be attached to his demon girl.And now, she wanted her to stay? Is this woman bipolar or what?"What are you talking about, Ana? You said she was dangerous!" I exclaimed."I thought so too. Just hear me out, okay? I had a long talk with her and she doesn't seem all that bad," Ana said."She doesn't seem all that bad! She is a fucking demon for crying out loud. And not to mention a succubus. You know damn well what Succubi are capable of. After she is done with Theo, she could come after us next." I frowned. "No, she is not like that," Ana protested."How would you know that?" I challenged."My instinct has gotten stronger over the year. I can sense evi
Theodore POVIrinira disappeared on me again, so I decided not to look for her. I knew she would come to my dream or appear out of nowhere like she always does anyway, so there was no point in chasing her down.All I needed to do was to focus on convincing Ambrose and Ana to make her stay.After I realized I was in love with her, there was no way I could let her go now. I have been lonely and miserable, feeling unwanted and being with her made me happy. I wanted to stay that way.I headed to the place where we usually hold meetings. I knew Ambrose wanted us to gather around there today so he could talk to us about the drider. We needed another game plan to defeat him.Perhaps, I will ask him about Irinira again.Only Logan was there. No Ambrose in sight."Hey, dude. Have you seen Ambrose yet?" I asked him."He was supposed to be here ten minutes ago," Logan said. He looked irritated."Well, I guess I'll go look for him. I shrugged.Logan narrowed his eyes. What the fuck have you been
Ten years later..."Kaden, SLOW DOWN!" I cried out as our five year old child Kaden continued to terrorize everyone. I watched what went down in front of me, not sure how to handle our son, while Matthew and Konrad stood in the distance, stuffing their face with pizza, "Why aren't you stopping him!" I looked at them and roared.I was four months pregnant with Matthew's daughter Misty, so I was too hormonal and grumpy to deal with our demon child, who had now transformed into a dragon, spitting fire at everyone and everything."BURN, BURN, BURN!" Kaden chanted joyously.Ah, he was his father's son, alright. "Konrad! Do something!" I glared at Konrad."He is just having fun," he said nonchalantly.I turned my attention back to Matthew. "Then you stop him!"Matthew stopped eating his pizza and looked at me like he had no idea what I was talking about. "Huh? What do you mean? Why do I have to get him? It's Konrad's spawn of hell. Let him punish Kaden.""Because I already know Konrad, and
Sophia POV Is this really happening? Or is this a dream? I wondered as Matthew carried me to his bedroom. Tonight was finally the night I was to be mated to Matthew. I'd been thinking about it all day and let's just say my anxiety level was through the roof! "Don't be scared, Sophia. I won't hurt you. You trust me, don't you?" Matthew said gently. "I do," I whispered. Matthew put me on the floor gently. I felt like his piercing green eyes could look inside my soul and I felt nervous again. But it wasn't because I was scared of him. I could feel the heat between my legs as I watched him take his shirt off. I want him, and I can't even deny it to myself. [Holy hell, this guy is hot. I wonder how his wolf would feel when he buried his cock into you], my wolf cooed inside me, making me redder than a tomato. [Shut up! You will ruin the moment,] I hissed. I wasn't usually lusting over men like this, but for some reason, I could hardly contain myself now. I must be in heat. Matthew
Matthew POV Konrad was angry with me. He didn't want me to fight him about who gets to have Sophia first tonight. He wanted me to give her up without argument, but I didn't want to let her go this easily. They say fighting doesn't solve anything. So we both agreed with my mom's idea of finding the flowers in the forest. It shouldn't be too hard, right? "You will never find it. You barely spend any time in the woods," Konrad scoffed. "That's where you are wrong, brother. I may not roam around in the forest like a wild animal and waste my time there, but I still know a lot about it. I can also speak to other animals and ask them for direction." Konrad growled at me. "You can't ask other animals in the forest about the flower bush. That's cheating." "That's not cheating. Nobody said we couldn't do that!" I exclaimed. "And I bet the creatures in the woods will be more willing to help me because all you did was find new ways to torture them. So they already hate you." I smirked. "Fuc
Sophia POVGosh, I was having a nice quiet time in my room, eating a big bowl of chocolate ice cream, but of course, I got roped into their sibling bullshit.Again."What's happening?" I mumbled."Konrad and I are going to decide who gets to be with you tonight for your first time, once and for all," Matthew announced."Excuse me? I thought I already told you that it is up to me and not you. I get to decide who will be my first," I put my bowl down and snarled."Well...have you decided?" Konrad asked."No.""Well, there you go. You don't even know how to decide yet. So we are going to settle it. Then you won't have to make any kind of decision," Matthew said, deciding.These Neanderthals are going to be the end of me."And how are you going to settle this, may I ask? And why did you bring me here? We were not supposed to see each other until tonight anyway," I said irritably. All I wanted was to eat my ice cream in peace and read a good book. And maybe take a nice warm bath later. I s
Konrad POV "Gone? What do you mean gone?" my father roared. "Valentina ran away with Callan," Matthew murmured. Shit, that bastard had really done it this time. It had been a few days since the day Callan disappeared with Sophia's sister and then was brought back from the demon world by me. Ever since then, I lost contact with him, but it turned out he didn't lose connection with Valentina. Cheeky bastard. Although I was angry initially because Matthew and I had been protecting Valentina from Callan's lusty eyes for decades, I decided I'd learn to accept their sudden elope. Callan might be a complete moron, but Valentina? She was not dumb. If she went against our father and chose Callan, she knew what she was doing. Father's face turned dark, and I could tell he was trying his best not to explode in anger. "I see. I thought Sophia's sister was his mate. Why did that hooligan take my daughter?" "He rejected his mate for Val," Matthew interjected. However, he didn't seem all that
Callan POVWas she teasing me again?I held my breath as Valentina led me into her room."What are you planning on doing? Are you trying to seduce me, Ms. Vikander?" I joked.Valentina said nothing. A mysterious smile teased her lips instead, and her green eyes twinkled. Goddamn, she was just so...How did I get so lucky to be in the same room with this gorgeous creature? I didn't even use my Incubus magic on her!That meant she wasn't forced to bring me here. That means she actually likes me."You are awfully quiet. Nervous?" Valentina said and giggled mischievously."Nervous? Me? Don't be silly. I am half incubus. I get girls left and right," I said dismissively. Okay, that came out bad, but it wasn't like I was having sex with them for fun only. I literally needed to have sex to feed myself."That stops now," Valentina's voice was bizarrely melodious, making my head swim."Your sexual conquest stops here," Valentina repeated."No, Val. You don't understand. I need sex to stay stron
Valentina Today was the big day—my date with Callan. I shouldn't be nervous. I told myself that it was only Callan that I had a date with, that I knew him and shouldn't panic. I grew up with him and I'm pretty sure we were naked in baths at some point! But it didn't work. The second he arrived on my doorstep, standing there with his silvery white hair reaching down to his waist, and winning smile, I was a goner. It was game over to my lady parts. It shouldn't be allowed to be so handsome. Callan's imperfections only seemed to make him look even more tempting. "Callan!" I exclaimed. "Hi!" I hope he couldn't hear my heart that was unnaturally fast and loud. A grin spread over his lips. "Good morning." Not sure what to say next, I simply absorbed him. He wore casual clothing, jeans, and a grey t-shirt with a rock hanging around his neck. A smile spread over his lips as he caught me looking, and I got butterflies when he sized me up. "You look nice," Callan said. "Beautiful, actu
Callan POV 'Life should never be taken too seriously. We only live once, so why not laugh and have fun while we are here?' —I breathed that motto. Because of it, friends had always come easy to me. I was popular. What could I say? I was a fun guy to be around. Even girls flocked me, but mainly because of my appearance. Being half incubus had it's advantages I guess. But honestly, that kind of sucked.I wasn't stupid. I had eyes and knew I wasn't half-bad to look at. I took care of myself, worked out more than once per week, and my mother called me handsome, so I had that going for me.But I wanted to make a connection, and there was only one person I was drawn to. Only one person made my heart perform somersaults, and the same person also made me dumb.Valentina. The only crush I had ever had. My body wanted her while my soul craved her. But she never looked at me the way I wanted her too. It was as if she was immune to my incubus allure. She looked at me like I was one of her br
Sophia POVI watched Valentina as she moved around the battleground. For some reason, she was having a hard time focusing. She looked nervous. She was usually the most enthusiastic one in the battleground!"Where is your head today, Val? You let Patrick beat you twice already!" Matthew barked.Valentina jolted as if Matthew's voice startled her. "I...I don't know. I guess I didn't have enough sleep last night," she murmured.Hmm...something was wrong with her, I could feel it."Valentina, if you are not feeling well, you should go lie down," I said gently.It has been a week since the ordeal with Liz and Callan. Konrad went to the demon world and opened a portal so Callan and Liz could come back. After that, he let Liz escape and told them never to set foot in this territory again.Because if Alpha Ambrose found out, everyone, including Konrad, would be punished for helping. And none of us wanted that.Maybe Valentina is upset about Callan leaving, I thought to myself.They seemed pre
