The room was so silent you could drop a needle and every little tap against the floor would be heard. Damien was still behind me. My body was relaxing back onto his, it wasn't nervous, my body wasn't scared but my mind was screaming for dear life to run and fight and get the hell out of here. Even if I wanted to, my mind and my body weren't connected anymore. When I tried to run my feet stood still and I was leaning on him with every part of my body. ”Please,” I don't know why I said that. The feeling of not being able to control my body was causing a panic attack. I was screaming at myself but nothing happened. I might as well have been paralyzed. I looked to my side and saw Vanessa standing by the curtain, her eyes were wide and her chest rose high from her heavy breathing. ”Why did you come,” Meredith whispered as defeat filled her eyes. ”I- I came to save the King, I thought-” my eyes fluttered and I bit back the tears. ”-I thought he was gonna die,” Meredith shook her
The swarm wasn't as big and I didn't feel what I had but I felt his presence. I smiled slowly, it grew as I looked into his eyes but Percy wasn't smiling back. His eye hooded and his brows came down. Bella caressed his arm softly and then tugged at his shirt. Percy looked at me one last time before he turned his head. She moved in closer to him. His hand came up and softly laid on her waist. She leaned in and their lips connected. I drew in a double breath. I hadn't felt the same way but the pain was there as though I had. They kissed, it started out soft and then grew more passionate as Bella pressed into him further. I staggered backward a step and my hand clutched my shirt. I fumbled back onto Damien. His arm wrapped around my waist and I turned my head and closed my eyes. Percy was kissing her, the girl that had caused me so much pain and who had always wanted him, she was getting what she wanted. A stabbing pain started throbbing in my head, it wasn't a headache,
Selena turned and walked away as though nothing had happened. Her eyes had graced the Royals, her own parents, showing no emotion for her mother almost dying or her father killing a man to protect her. It was like she didn't feel anything, she looked empty and her eyes were hollow. ”Take them to the dungeons. All of them.” Damien began to walk out of the room. I watched his back, every part of my being wanted to run after him. To wrap my hands around his neck or pull his heart from his chest. Egon was on board but we both knew that we couldn’t, not yet. ”Where are you doing?” Vanessa asked with a pout and crossed her arms over her chest, tilting her hip to the side. Damien didn't answer her question, he walked out and after Selene. I closed my eyes and felt Bella's hand gliding up my arm. I grabbed her wrist and snapped it. Her legs buckled and she screamed but when I opened my eyes and she saw what I felt, she went quiet, her eyes widened and her head lowered. ”I did a
~Selene~ The walls were the same, the bed was made, the closet doors were closed and the lamp was on. My room hadn't changed, but I had. I was different. It wasn't different clothes or a different mood, my whole person wasn't the same and I knew that. I had no clue how this happened and I didn't mind it. I felt safe. I didn’t jump as I normally did when someone snuck up on me. Damien's fingers graced my skin, they softly caressed my arm, and then went higher up. His head leaned down, his lips hovered softly over his mark and he pressed a featherlike kiss on the wound. His arm snaked around my waist and his hand placed on my stomach as he pulled me back onto him. My butt was pressed up against his front and I felt his throbbing needs. I closed my eyes and my stomach began to flutter. I licked my lips and leaned my head back. Damien's lips continued to kiss my neck, he nibbled and dragged his tongue over my flesh and it ignited under his touch. ”Turn around.” I did as he aske
~Percy~ Selene was different, something happened in the throne room. Damien broke her walls, everyone betrayed her at once and then her eyes just went empty and cold. Damien must've gotten into her head, the mark would tie them, and he would've been able to control her body as he had. I had no idea how but I had heard that if you mark someone who isn't your mate, some of the bonds will slowly tie together but it will be nothing like the actual mate bond. It isn't love for the other person that is causing you to mark them, it is the need for control and dominance. The second that Damien marked Selene, his poison would've seeped into her veins and tied her to him. Her emotions and her body would've reacted to his as though they were mated. He would be able to sense her, where she was at any given time. But it had its flaws because you're not meant to mark anyone besides your mate, you would be going against the very basis of nature that had been created for werewolves as a gift. The
~Selene~ I was walking down the hallway, on my way to the kitchen to grab a snack. I saw a few of Damien's warriors as I passed and smiled but received a stone-cold expression in return. Whatever they were going through must be rough, they didn't smile at anyone, and they barely spoke as they walked back and forth in their posts. ”Sam, you better let me the fuck out of here or I swear to god-” ”What?” He spoke so calmly while she yelled and growled at him. I knew shouldn't have but I walked closer to Sam's room. ”What are you going to do, run? You so much as show your pretty little face out there and the warriors have orders to kill you. If that's what you want then by all means, go. Just remember that you’re no use to your friends if you’re dead.” Sam grabbed onto Steph's chin and violently tilted her head back. Her eyes were glowing and she was snarling at him but quieted. His back was turned to me, her eyes flicked for a second. ”Or you behave like a good girl and do as I
Damien scanned Emma's face for a second. ”I have some business to attend to, why don't you two catch up.” I smiled and shrugged my shoulders. I couldn't wait. ”Sam will be with you.” I froze. ”Why?” I asked. Damien stepped closer to me. His eyes held me in place with a stern look but then they softened. ”Because I want him too. Is that a problem?” ”We don't need a babysitter.” Emma said and tilted her hip to the side. ”I wasn't asking you.” Damiens eyes never left mine. His hand came up and cupped my cheek, my lips automatically parted and I held back a moan. ”I just want you to be safe. Samuel will be with you to make sure of that, you don't want me to worry, do you?” ”No,” I breathed. ”We don't have a problem, do we?” ”No,” I looked into his eyes and saw the sea of love they held as he gazed into mine. ”Good.” Damien stepped back and shared a silent message with Sam before he turned and left, followed by a few of the warriors. ”Are you okay?” Emma asked. Whe
Empty. That was the first word that came to mind when Emma asked me that question. I couldn't tell her that though, it sounded weird. I was happy. ”I’m happy,” I said. ”Okay, happiness is good, but how do you feel?” ”I feel-” I looked around the room. ”-Like something is missing,” I whispered. ”I-” The door burst open and both me and Emma jumped to our feet. ”Leave.” Emma's eye met the floor and her head bowed. She quickly went around Damien and disappeared out of the room. He was tall, and big, and was taking up nearly the entire door frame. His eyes were yellow and his lips were pressed tightly. Damien closed the door behind him and then took slow steps toward me. His eyes were pinning me to the spot and I was afraid to look away from him. His hand came up and cupped my cheek as he inhaled deeply. Damien's hand went around my head and he grabbed a fistful of my hair. I yelped as my head was pulled back. ”Get on your knees.” I was kneeling in front of him, his e
We were in the doctor's office and Selene was dangling her feet from the bed. The doctor had done some tests and then gone of, he’d be back with the results soon but I had a feeling I knew what the test results would show. The door opened and he stepped inside with a bright smile on his face. ”Congratulations, princess, you’re pregnant,” ”Huh?” I turned around and looked at Selene's pale face. All the color had drained from it and she looked like she was about to pass out. She pointed to the corner where a trash can was standing. ”Bucket!” I took a puke bag from the stands and handed it to her. ”I would like you too come back in two weeks for an ultrasound to make sure that everything is as it should be,” The doctor said. ”Sure,” Selene nodded her head and wiped her mouth clean. For werewolves, the process of childbirth was different than for humans. Instead of nine months, we have around three, so the pregnancy is fast but rarely painless. ”We should get you something
The sun had set and the moonlight seeped in through the window giving us the slightest bit of light. Selene was laying on the bed, her legs were spread apart and she was waiting for me. I took slow steps, enjoying how impatient she was getting. Selene groaned and got on her knees. I stood next to the bed and gazed down as she started unbuckling the belt and undoing my pants. She sucked in her bottom lip and and her hands were working fast as pulled my jeans down and they landed at my ankles along with my underwear. Selene licked her lips as my erection sprung free. I’d been hard for almost an hour and seeing Selenes lustfilled eyes and her impatient ways was causing the throbbing to become painful. She raised her hand and was about to wrap her fingers around my dick but I had other plans for her. I dragged my thumb over her lips and then pushed at her shoulders so she flew back. She laid s
The injured were being cared for, the bodies were being disposed of and those that belonged to us were being buried with their families and close ones attending. So many deaths in just a few hours, it made me sick. ’It’s war’ It's stupid ’But necessary’ How can you say that? ’It’s the natural order of things. The strong survive. Had it not been for wars, the werewolf species would've over populated long ago and that would mean the end for the human race’ Oh That made sense but it still made me sick. Emma was sitting on a bench looking out over the estate grounds. I knew I had to talk to her, and there was a lot I want
Nobody else moved in for which I was glad. This was between me and him, everyone else would stay out of it. I hoped. Damien walked toward me with heavy steps and I desperately wanted to shift. ’Let’s do it’ There’s not enough space, someone will get hurt He threw a punch and I dodged it. I saw some movement coming from the podium, Sam was squirming on the floor and his eyes were slowly fluttering open. My concentration was cut for half a second but that was enough. Damien had his hand around my throat and squeeased as he lifted me from the floor and tossed me into the wall. My head started spinning but Damien wasn't about to give a me chance to get back up. I tried to stand but my balance wasn't there and a punch to the face on top of that tossed me back down. I groaned and spat out blood. Everyone around us were getting impatient. Those of the Lycan Pack and my pack wanted to step in and fight Damien. Those with Damien wanted me dead already and I could tell they would glad
~Selene~ I was fighting in my human form and continously looking over at Damien. I wanted to kill him, I needed too see him die with my own eyes and preferably by my hands. My father, the king, was fighting him of with ease but he wouldn't be able to kill him alone. Howls were heard from far away. Everyone stopped for a few seconds and looked toward were the sound was coming from. Several wolves came running up, faster than I had ever seen, behind them were warriors in their human form. I reckognized the wolf in the front. ’Percy, is that Patrick?’ His eyes were viocsuly scanning the surroundings, salvia hung from the side of his mouth and you could tell they were here for the kill. ’Yes it is’ He said I scoffed and nodded my head. The Lycan Pack was here. They jumped in and the slaughter doubled. Had this been any other pack, they would've been outnumbered, but in this case, the playing field just evened out as the Lycan Pack joined. They slashed, clawd, bit and tugged. Bo
Egon stepped forth and I growled as I slammed at Damien's shoulders with all my strength. It was enough to make him fall back. I jumped up and kicked him toward the window. Another kick and the impact broke the glass and he fell down. It was pretty much all the strength I had left and I felt the sharp pain in my side return three folded. ”I told you to take the others and go! If you had done what I told you to I could've taken care of Damien.” Selene scolded. I turned slowly and faced her. ”And his people? Let’s say you killed Damien, then what? What about the hundreds of warriors he had with him, you think they’ll put down the hatchet and walk away? No, they will fight til death to avenge their Alpha.” ”I would’ve dealt with it,” ”Wake up! You can't do this on your own, I don't know why you’re suddenly acting all pissed of but lock it down and let’s get this over with.” ”You don't why I'm pissed?” She asked calmly and stepped toward me. I heard a rummage going on outside but
~Percy~ The taste of blood swirled on my tongue, I could taste it and smell it but I couldn't react. Whatever happened these last few days was enough for Egon to become dormant. Neither of us had any strength left but I knew it was time. I needed to eat, to heal, and then get Selene and get the fuck out of here. Slowly my mobility returned. My jaw moved, my teeth sunk into the fresh meat and the bloody juices ran down my throat. After a few more pieces were fed to me, I could open my eyes. I saw everyone standing around, the one who looked worse for wear was Mikayla. She wasn't healing as she should. ”It will take some time for her injuries to heal completely,” The queen said and placed a hand on Mikayla's shoulder. I nodded my head, it was all I could do. ”Here you go,” Emma handed me a bottle of water. I wanted to gulp it all down but the slightest drop felt like nails against my throat. I turned my head an inch and looked into Emmas' eyes, behind her stood Dave, the guy that
My mouth was agape and I was staring blankly at Stepahines red face. ”Uhm,” I couldn't find the words. Were there any words? ’They’re mates’ No shit ’Don’t be rude’ This is messed up. He attacked her, kept her in his room like a prisoner, and starved her ’And now they’re in love, people can change’ Please go sleep I ran a hand through my hair and looked up at the ceiling. Words, Selene, find any words and speak them. ”So,” good start. ”Why?” I asked. Well, those are words. ”We’re mates,” She said and bit down on her lip as she side-glanced at him. I snapped my fingers in front of her face and got her attention back on me. ”What do you mean you’re mates? When did this happen? Before or after I stole you some food because he was starving you?” I was pissed and everything was about to unravel. ”Selene-” ”No!” I pointed my finger at Sam to make sure he stayed quiet. ”We’ve been fighting, sneaking around our own home, searching for information, risking our lives to save
I Walked back up and got to the kitchen. So far so good. I was careful so that none of Damien's people would see me. I stopped and hid where I had to but they weren't that many in the estate right now. The kitchen was almost empty. The only ones in there were two chefs whom I knew worked for the Royals. They turned their backs toward me as I came in and I started rummaging the fridge. There were lots of fresh meats in there and some bags of jerky in the pantry. I grabbed anything with protein and some bread as well. I grabbed as much as I could carry but one of the chefs came up and patted my shoulder. She held out a big plastic bag and I stuffed all the meats inside of it. I thanked the chef who seemed relieved at what was happening. Everyone here wanted things to go back to the way they were. They didn't want Damien and his people here but if they tried doing something themselves, they’d get slaughtered. The hallways were empty so I went behind the stairs and to the back room, cu
