I stood there crouched, waiting on him to make the first move. I saw his left leg twitch, so I moved to the right just as he sent a kick flying my way, narrowly missing my face. I wasn’t expecting him to go for the face on the first hit, so I cast a surprised glare his way.“I told you I wasn’t gonna go easy on you,” he chuckles while trying to punch me.“I told you I was getting payback.”I duck his punch then send my fist flying into his abdomen. “That was for knocking me out with a rock.”I back away while he catches the breath I knocked out of him.“Is that all you got? I expected more from you,” he grunts and sends a series of jabs my way. I throw my forearms up to successfully block all but one which landed on my shoulder.I grit my teeth and shove him away. While he’s stumbling back, I put as much power as I can — without tapping into my Fae strength — into a high kick that lands on the side of his face. I might have kicked him with a little too much power as it sent him flying
LILY POV My blaring alarm woke me out of my deep sleep. I dragged myself out of bed to take a shower. Once I was finished I wrapped myself in a towel and walked to the closet. I had just put on my bra and underwear when someone cleared their throat. I spun around and saw none other than Andy lying on my bed with his hands clasped behind his head. His eyes were hooded and he was looking at me with pure unadulterated lust. “You scared the hell out of me. What are you doing here?” I clutched my hand to my chest trying to catch my breath. “I just thought that since we’re on better terms that I’d walk with you to class,” he said looking thoughtful. I stood there for a moment thinking with my hand on my hip. “Really?” I ask doubtfully. “Yeah really.” His eyes darken even more, and I see his gaze travel down my body. Once he makes it back to my face I raise my eye brow. “Is everything satisfactory for you?” If possible his eyes darken even more. “More than satisfactory. I’d say you’r
I walk into MMA in my typical practice get up, sports bra and shorts. Coming in today is completely different than yesterday. Instead of my skills being doubted everyone is looking at me in awe. Well awe and lust which makes me shiver in disgust.Andy must notice the others lustful gazes, so he growls at them, “Eyes to yourself!”Since I’m now aware that he knows my plan, explaining my actions from this morning’s going to be a lot easier, but I still decide that it’ll be easier to get through to him if I butter him up a bit. I walk over to him adding a little extra sway to my hips. I can immediately see the effect I have on him. His eyes are clearly showing his battle between lust and anger.To help push him over to lust, I pretend my shoe’s untied and leisurely bend over at my waist. “Accidentally” giving him an excellent view down my shirt. I hear him take a strangled breath in and smirk; my plan is working perfectly so far.Looking up at him innocently I ask, “Are you okay?”Just t
“Well, well, well. Who do we have here?” His deep voice cuts through the silence, of course the voice belongs to none other than Drake the vampire president.I have to bite my tongue to keep my smart remark from flying out of my mouth and clench my fists to prevent myself from slapping him. What is up with these vamps and asking stupid questions? He seems to be just as dumb as the first one.“Lily, sir.” I curtsy, ignoring his outreached hand. There’s no way I’m touching him.“Lily,” He purrs my name, sending a shiver of disgust down my spine. “You are fae, correct?” He asks with far too much interest.“The last time I checked, yes.” Again I had to refrain from calling him an idiot. Seriously, he’s their president? I honestly worry about their future with him leading.“Hmm...interesting.”He takes one final glance at me, then turns to Colton.“I’m not sure why you thought it’d be acceptable to bring a friend to a family meeting, but I suppose we can continue on.” He walks over to the
The next morning I’m so nervous my entire body is shaking. I decide to dress in simple jeans, boots, and a tank. I put all my daggers in their usual spots and make my way out of my dorm.I come out of my room at the exact same time as Andy and his brothers. I grin at them.“Did you stand by your doors and listen for me to come out?”Duke scoffs, “Yes, because you know how we plan our every waking moment around you.”“You probably do. I can’t help that I’m just that awesome.”I nudge him with my elbow, laughing.Just as we go to pass Colton’s room the door flies open. “Hey Lil, can you come here for a second? I need to ask you something.”All the guys stop and start to head into the room, but I can see Colton giving me the signal for alone.I shove my way in front of them.“I’ll meet you guys in class.” I kiss Andy quickly on the lips, then go in the room, shutting the door on their bewildered faces.“Here. I just wanted to give you this.” Colton quickly hands me my bra. “Everything is
PRINCE ANDY POV After the weird thing this morning with Lily and Colton, she appeared to be on edge. Constantly moving and looking around. I had the guys and my brothers on lookout. She was up to something, and that something was making her nervous. During second period she was extremely anxious, and when her phone vibrated I knew something was up. “What do you think she’s up to?” Sam asked through the link. “I don’t know, but I would bet money the vamp is involved,” I growled. Sure enough a second later he comes busting through the door with some phony excuse about the principal wanting to see her. I’m just about to get up and follow them when the teacher stops me. “Excuse me Mr. Argan, take your seat,” She demands. Huffing as loud as I possibly can, I drop back down into my seat. Apparently being a prince means nothing in this school. It’s about thirty minutes later that all hell appears to be breaking loose outside. One look out the window and you know that Lily is furious.
LILY'S POVI can sense his presence in my room and not in a good sense either. He’s mad. Actually, mad would probably be a major understatement. I'd venture to say he was irate and possibly on the edge of shifting. Because of that I’m trying my hardest to make it seem as if I’m still sleeping.“I know you’re awake. I could hear your heartbeat quicken, so you may as well get up and explain,” he says with a sigh.I gulp and spring off the bed. “Bathroom!”I sprint for the door and throw it open. I can hear Andy curse behind me and jump up to give chase. He almost caught me when I had to stop and open the door, but I’m just too quick for him.I’m running down the hallway laughing manically. Everybody is looking at me like I’m crazy, but I don’t let it phase me.“Lily! You better stop! When I catch you, you better be prepared for the spanking of a life time.” He threatens while running after me.“Is that supposed to scare me? You’ll never catch me!” I yell back, laughing.I hear him growl
I’m extremely sore the next day. My ribs are throbbing something fierce. I slowly hunch my way to school, and I’m shocked when I walk into first period to see Jet standing there.I’m just about to tear him a new one when my three other targets walk in. They instantly take precedence over Jet, for the moment at least. I narrow my eyes at Andy, Sam and Nash.“How nice of you guys to join us.” I tap my fingers on the desk.They all gulp and shrink in their seats.“What’s up, Lily?” Nash carefully asks.“You know the usual,” I casually say. “Three bruised ribs and one fractured one sure did make the journey to school painful. It would have been awfully convenient for me to have an ultra-strong werewolf prince as my mate, or be friends with two other werewolves. Because you know if I did have one, surely he would’ve stopped and asked if I needed help.” I set my death glare on Andy.He gives a slight chuckle, “Oops? I forgot, Lily, I’m sorry.”I slap my hand down on the desk. “You’re sorry?
I hope that you guys have enjoyed reading this as much as I did writing it! Thanks for sticking with me to the end. This chapter is a long one, but it is a potential sequel/spin off. I'm going to go ahead and put what I have written in this one chapter so be prepared. I do not have a title yet, so bare with me.let me know if this story is something you all would be interested in having me complete!Chapter 1As per usual I am woken up by my idiot brothers. Kaemen attempted to yank me out of my bed. I quickly used air to shove him away, but Ryker had managed to sneak up while I was distracted. A moment later I shoot right out of bed — completely soaked — with a high pitched squeal. Ryker quickly took off running through my doorway, knowing full well that he was about to get drenched. “Seriously, Ryker!” I yell and begin to chase him after him. Unfortunately for me, I’m still trying to wake up, so he’s a lot faster than me at the moment. I hear him bound down the stairs, and just as
For the second time I find myself in a stunned and frozen state, but this time I pulled myself out of it within a second.“You have a lot of balls showing up here, Colton,” I sneer at him.“I figured I’d go for the dramatic entrance. Going by the looks on all your faces I’d say it went pretty well,.” Colton says amused.“It was really stupid of you to come here. I didn’t have the chance to kill you last time, but I sure as hell am going to now.” Before I even finished my sentence I had thrown my dagger at him while simultaneously shooting him. I quickly threw my hand back and used air to hold back all of the others. I refused to let any one else die on my watch.He somehow managed to dodge both my knife and all my bullets, so I took off running for him. Once I was within range I jumped and spun my leg around, nailing him in the jaw with my foot.He stumbled a bit, but quickly regained his balance. We exchanged hits for several minutes before backing off to catch our breath.“Why are y
LILY POVAfter a minute or so I felt myself materialize and gain mass once again. That has got to be the weirdest thing to ever happen to me. I actually had to pat myself down to make sure I was all there. Taking a relieved breath in, I surveyed my surroundings. I could feel my face scrunching in confusion. It appears that I’m at the school?Why on earth . . . ?My question was answered when a throat clearing brought me swirling around. Standing there in front of me was Andy.He was rubbing the back of his neck looking extremely guilty. He stood there drinking me in for several minutes before I broke the silence.“What am I doing here? And how did I get here?” I demand.“Well you see . . .” Andy trails off, clearly at a loss for words.“Oh for red skittles everywhere, spit it out!” I scream.“What’s with you and red skittles?” Nash asked with a grin.“Umm, they’re delicious! What kind of dumb question was that?” I grin at him.One day in class I had brought a bag of skittles and was p
ANDY’S POVI watched her leave.I watched my mate walk away from me.I watched as her face dropped with disappointment.I desperately wanted to go with her or force her to stay with me, but I just couldn’t bring myself to do it. I saw her devastated face as she cast one last longing glance at the house. I’m fairly sure she saw me standing there, watching her, but she didn’t acknowledge me.As time progressed I was falling deeper and deeper into despair. It seemed I was the only one that put any blame on Lily. Not even May was angry with her. Sam and Nash are hardly speaking to me. They were disappointed in my actions. They considered Lily a sister, and were so mad at the things I said to her that they both refused to so much as look at me for weeks.I was hardly eating and barely left my room. I was officially the next king, so I had to attend the classes for that. I also had training, and that was where I let out my pent up rage. Hardly anyone would willingly spar with me. I may have
When I walked into the Unseelie court I was pleasantly surprised. I was fully expecting to see a dark gloomy place that was in-caged with sharp ice. Yet when I took my first step on their territory I found it to be a lively atmosphere and welcoming. I also didn't expect to walk into a party, but that's exactly what happened. The moment I walked into their Palace the party began with cheers and shouts of welcoming.It was rather shocking to see just how elegant they made every thing. Any thing and every thing was made out of ice. The buildings themselves were made and shaped from ice. Even the chandelier was made out of several long ice cycles. The floor itself was ice, but it was sanded and buffed to the point that it was no longer slippery. I felt like I was walking on water, frozen of course, but water none the less. If it wasn't made out of ice, then it was some how incorporated into it. For example, the massive dining room table. It was made from wood, but had elegant spirals of i
DUKE POVWe were all sitting there having dinner as normal, but you could tell something was up with Lily. She had been distant from everybody and putting on a front for the whole day now and nobody could figure out why. We had freed the Fae, so you’d think she’d be happy. I was brought out of my musings when my mate, May, put her hand on my thigh.What’s wrong honey? she asked me through our mate link.Nothing really. Just trying to figure what’s going on with Lily, I respond.I sensed a trickle of jealousy run through our bond, and I’m quick to squash that. She is only a friend. I see her more as one of the guys than anything. The jealously instantly fades away.I’m sorry. I don’t mean to insinuate anything. I just know that you’ve been spending a lot of time with her, and . . . Well I was just being stupid. Forgive me? she asks using the pout I can never resist.There’s nothing to forgive. I smile at her, then tune back into the conversation.Hearing what was coming out of Colton’s
The next few days went by agonizingly slow.I was depressed about the fact that Colton was betraying me, but I wasn’t showing it to anybody. Andy had noticed a difference in me, but I had managed to block my emotions out so he couldn’t get a good read. I knew that I should be telling them about Colton, but I couldn’t help but hold a little hope that I was wrong.Little did I know that had I told somebody a life wouldn’t have been lost.Colton kept up his act and was still pretending to be my bestie. I had yet to call him out on it, but I planned to tonight. I had no idea how to even approach the subject, but I knew that it had to be done. I couldn’t go around living with and being friends with a liar.After a lot of thought I had decided that I would confront him after dinner when it was just family. I wasn’t dumb enough to do it alone. I know that I’m powerful, but he had to be just as powerful. He was leading the vampires and had planned out this whole elaborate scheme; obviously he
Once I was dressed in my sleeveless little black dress we made our way to the club.Shots were passed around and everybody drank to a job well done.Most of the Fae came out, and the expressions on every ones face were hilarious. Mouths dropped to the floor, eyes about popped out of their sockets, and I’m fairly sure I saw several strings of drool hanging out.Grimacing, I made my way to the dance floor. Moving my body with the beat I danced the night away. When I finally reached my dancing limit, I started wondering where Andy was. I had several guys try to dance with me, and normally he would have beaten them to death by now.I let the bond guide me to him and found him in a very, shall we say, compromising position.Some barely dressed blonde was grinding against him as if she was the stripper and he was her pole. The only reason I wasn’t furious with him is because not only could I feel his discomfort and annoyance, but I could see it.I was trying not to laugh because he was pres
I woke up and found myself in Andy’s room at the royal castle, yet again. I swear I have had more cases of deja vu in the past couple months than I have in my entire life. My stab wound is a bit sore, but it’s mainly just my body in general. It’s stiff and tender.I look down and realize that Andy must have changed me into my pajamas. Speaking of Andy, I’m about to whoop his ass!All my wounds are long forgotten, as I march straight down the stairs into the kitchen. I’m vaguely aware of the fact that my parents, brother, Geo, Zen, Nash, Sam, Colton, and Andy’s family plus Travis are sitting at the table watching me.Andy is leaning against the counter smiling at me.“Hey babe, are you feeling alright?” He asks concerned.I completely blow his question off and walk until I’m standing right I’m front of him. I give my best death glare trying to intimidate him, and from the way he gulps I know it’s working.He clears his throat, “Uhm, what’s wrong? Why do you look like you’re about to pun
