“Alright, but who will I compel?” Blake asks. I think about it, then I reply, “You will compel Xavier. it might not work on me because of we have the same powers and all. So, there are better chances for it to work if you try it with your brother. Tell him to stand up and transform to a bat for a minute and then transform back.” “Alright, Xavier are you okay with this?” Blake asks his brother. “Yeah, let us get this over with and know for sure,” Xavier replies. They both stand up from their seats and Blake walks over to where Xavier is standing. He looks straight into his brother’s eyes and says, “I want you to transform into your bat and stay like that for a minute before you transform back.” at first nothing happens and then Xavier screams in pain and starts changing into a bat. We all stare at him, and the I look at Blake’s surprised face. I could tell that he did not really believe it was going
I push Blake away and I tell him, “Why the hell would you do that? I told you I was going on a date with Alaric. You knew what you were doing, you did this on purpose. I do not want to see or talk to you right now.” I push past him and he tries to stop me with a weak, “Luna, I am sorry,” I ignore him and continue towards Alaric who is still at the end of the stairs. I can see the anger in his eyes, he is livid and visibly shaking. “I cannot believe I actually thought we were friends. All this time, you were just trying to get Luna for yourself. I cannot believe that you thought kissing her in front of me was going to get me to leave,” Alaric says to Blake from where he is still standing. When I reach him, I throw my arms around him and I tell him that I did not kiss Blake back and he does not need to worry. I glance back and I see Blake looking heart broken as Alaric wraps his arms around me to comfort me. Serves him right, for almos
“I knew it would work. You were right Luna, now we can move to the next phase,” Blake says after we kiss. “You played your part well Blake, you really did,” I respond. “Of course, and so did you. You actually seemed like you did not love me,” Blake replied, “If I did not know it was a plan, I would have been sad,” he continues. I take a step closer to him, “I love you, do not worry. I am just very good at acting. As long as you can feel my emotions, you will always know what I feel for you, Blake,” I tell him. He kisses me again and after we pull apart, I continue packing my things. “So, what do you think is going to happen on my first night living with him? Do you think he is going to try to make a move on me?” I ask Blake. Blake laughs and says, “Of course. What do you expect?” I nod and reply, “That is what I was afraid of.” Blake helps me to pack my two boxes and when we
“Harlan, how can you talk to me? Where have you been? Luna has been worried,” I say to him. I am do confused as to how I can even communicate with him right now. Is this some kind of twin thing? Harlan replies weakly, “I was captured by the shapeshifters. The shapeshifter took the shape of my close friend and they captured me. I have been trying to reach Luna, but to no avail. They took me about a month ago, I am not really sure. The people keeping me here have been saying that their leader tricked Luna into thinking he was her mate and she is moving in with him. Is this true?” “Yes, it is. But it is not a trick. She knows he is not her mate, obviously. It is a plan. Do you know where they are keeping you? What about Cyrus and Austin? Also, do you know how you can talk to me like this? I thought it was only with your mates and Luna,” I reply. “I knew that Luna would never fall for such. I think I am in a basement. I did not see
“Thank you, Blake. Thank you. Did you tell Luna about this?” Harlan asks. “No, I did not tell her. She would have gotten too worried and blown her cover. We could not have that,” I tell him. Xavier had almost finished untying all the others. “Alright, let’s go. Blake and I are going to go away with Harlan. The rest of you are going to fight to get back control of your company. Is that understood,” he tells them all. “Yes, your majesty. If I may ask, who is Harlan to you,” the boss of the drive asks us. “Well, Harlan is Luna’s twin brother. Luna is the prophecy child. She is currently being tricked into thinking that the leader of the shapeshifters is her mate,” Xavier replies. He nods and we all head to the stairs and Xavier and I climb the stairs first, with Harlan and the others following behind us. We exit the stairs and start making our way back to the door we entered from. While the other peop
Luna’s P.O.VAfter we left the palace and drove to Alaric’s place. We got down and Alaric helped me with my bags. We walked inside his two-storey house and he led me upstairs to where my room would be. It was beside his room, shocker. I spent the morning unpacking my things. Since I did not have that much stuff, I was done in no time. Alaric had some things he was attending to. He said there was a problem at his clothes shop. I asked what it was and he said there was some kind of riot at the blood drive beside it. He left and I was reading the last Bridgerton book. While reading, I heard Blake’s message. I replied him immediately. I had missed him so much. After we finished our conversation, I was livid. Riot my ass. I could not believe he kidnapped my twin brother. Actually, I can believe it. He is basically evil incarnate. It was time for lunch and I made my way down to the dining room. Alaric was waiting for me. He had cooked lunch, he wante
I stared at Alaric as he knelt down before me with what was clearly an engagement ring in his hands. I could not say anything. Even if I could, I did not know what to say. I knew he would propose to me soon, but I did not know he would propose the very next morning. I guess I owe Blake two dates of his choice. We made a bet that Alaric would propose to me after I told him that I was waiting to have sex till I get married to my mate. I had bet that he would wait two weeks or a month. Blake had bet that he would propose to me within the first week of me staying with him. I decide to say something to Alaric. “Alaric, what are you doing?” I ask him. His smile falters, “I am asking you to marry me. Do you not want to marry me?” he replies. I smile at him and respond, “No. That is not it at all. I am just worried that it is too fast. We have only known each other a week after all.”“I know baby, but I know the ti
After I got my snacks, I walked back to my room and settled in to watch a movie before I started reading the books I brought with me. I spend my day alternating between watching various romantic comedies and reading the mediator book series. I spend the day lazing about in my room and I do not come out until it is time for lunch. Alaric is out and I eat alone. I walk back to my room and continue watching movies and reading books. When night falls, I walk to the bathroom and draw up a bath. I put in some scented oils and bubbles. I walked out of my room to the kitchen and grabbed a bottle of red wine and then a big ass wine glass. I walk back to my room and lock the door. I walk to my box and open the secret compartment. I take out my little toy and strip my clothes. I walk to the bathroom and step into the bath tub. I let myself relax in the tub and pour a glass of wine for myself. I take a swig from the glass and turned on my toy. I started playing with myself while t
I woke up the next morning to my alarm screaming at me. It was so loud that I thought my eardrums were going to explode at the very next second, grumbling against my pillow.I contemplated on ignoring it or just going back to sleep after attending to it I finally chose an option that I did not thought of before I checked the time and it was six o’clock. A little bit of relief came to a sigh on my lips. I thought that I had overslept for a moment considering all the time I had procrastinated before coming to check the clock and so I stretched my hand and I turned off the alarm and sat up from bed. It was so early and my stomach was already growling, I couldn't imagine how hungry I was and so I needed to get ready for breakfast…I was craving something easy like cereal because I was already starving a lot.&nb
