"Ah beautiful lady, my name is Lucian. Wolves say i smell bad, is it true?, Because i think i smell awesome".
"I'm so honored to meet you, have i mentioned you look beautiful?".
"Hmmmm so radiant, so nice to meet you dear".
Kieran's expressionless eyes stare at Annaliese.He rolls her off him and stands up from the bed. A door opens and the sound of water running fills Annaliese's ears.Kieran was annoyed. He didn't know how to feel. She marked him without his permiss
Kieran can't believe he had sex with Annaliese.That was unexpected, like it was just-.What was he thinking?, just jumping in bed with her. He doesn't even love her and he definitely doesn't want to hurt her.
"You are going to propose to him"."This is a bad idea", Quinn replies him."He's your mate, what are you waiting for?", Kim fires back."I haven't seen him around for a while", Leon comments.
Annaliese didn't think Kieran would say yes. She didn't think she could ask him.What was she thinking?.Now she has to plan for it.Although to Annaliese, she doesn't think it's really a date. Afterall, they're just going for a walk in the woods, Kiera
Kieran rubs his nose in her fur as they watch the sun. She smells heavenly. She scoots closer to him.She looks so peaceful."Did you have fun, Annaliese?".
Two weeks later, Kieran fulfills his promise.He got Annaliese a martial arts teacher, one of the oldest warriors in the pack.His name is James.
Kieran had gone to meet Lucian outside his land borders.A great risk but he didn't care.Lucian had finally supplied the substance and Kieran has been transporting it to the abandoned house of treatment.It took quite a while and he was exhausted by the time they were done.He drives home and goes straight to his room. Annaliese isn't there so he decides to check her room before checking Joycelin's.He opens the door quietly and finds her wrapped in bed covers.She looks so peaceful when sleeping.And beautiful.He lies beside he
Annaliese breathes in relief when it's finally over. It was easier than she had thought.Having high rank blood in her had helped her greatly and she couldn't be more grateful.Her mate had said she did well and that makes her smile.She could feel the positive reactions from people, another thing James had taught her how to do.The ones with happy emotions would have light surrounding them and the ones with the opposite emotions would have a thick dark blanket engulfing them.Annaliese is on her way to the hospital with Marian and Kim. When they get there, she starts feeling nauseous."Marian, i need to use the toilet".
It's been four years since Marian was killed and four years of healing for Kieran. For the pack, for everybody. Four years of growing stronger and better. A lot has happened in the last four years. After the Joyce incident, Annaliese has had more kids. Their first child, Phoenix has twin sisters. Jade and Claire. They're three years old and quite beautiful just like their mother. They're commonly known as the princesses of Zenith pack. Phoenix is now five years old with silver orbs.
A minute ago, Joyce was gone and now she's alive.She lets out a breath she didn't know she was holding in.Wheezing, Joyce opens her eyes.She sits upright and holds onto Annaliese for support."Annaliese?", she says with a hoarse voice.Annaliese looks at her and her eyes aren't the same color.Red.They're sparkling red.She glances over at Lucian and sees him smiling."Wh-what's going on?. I feel weird", Joyce asks."You're now a vampire", he says abruptly.
Kieran runs into the woods feeling bitter, alone and defeated.Feeling sad and depressed.Flashes of different memories from his childhood comes to him."I'm going to kill them"."Kill who?"."The mundanes, they took everything away from me"."But they also gave you something else".8 year old Kieran looked at Marian."They gave you Kim and the packs.Now you have to prove to be a great alpha king just like your father was".The little boy wiped the tears away and hugged Marian.
When they get to the coven, the sun was beginning to rise.If her best friend wasn't about to die, Annaliese would enjoy the sunrise.She is forced to hand Phoenix to Griselda as her wounds are cleaned. Briseis promises her he would be safe with Griselda.Annaliese really hopes so.Briseis then tells them to all go home which some of them does.Quinn, Leon and Kim all leave to go bury Marian and return to the packs knowing Lucian wouldn't try anything at the witches coven.After all, he's alone and greatly outnumbered but Kim doesn't want to take any chances so he leaves some epsilons at the entrance of the coven.
"Mate"."Hell no", Joycelin snorts."What are you doing here, Joyce?", Anna shouts."I wanted to help".Anna looks over to Leon."She snuck in and we didn't know until we were halfway of the journey", Leon shrugs."You're my mate", Lucian drags her by her arm."Don't touch me, vampire"."Alpha, we're sorry we came a bit late". "Marian is dead.", Kieran announces.They look at her and mourn silently."Stay back", James warns as he takes Phoenix from Denise and raises a silver knife to his chest.Phoenix cries out and Anna screams. "You monster!"."James, drop the knife", Kieran says calmly."Oh shut up, you're all going to get into that cell or i will kill this boy"."I was supposed to rule the witches after becomi
"Let me explain. Basically, a blood mate is like a true mate for a vampire", Lucian begins."When a vampire finds his or her blood mate, the urge to drink blood from other sources decrease. They feel satisfied drinking their mate's blood".Annaliese gives him a disgusting look and he chuckles."No, they don't kill their mates when they drink their blood"."Mostly, they drink from the wrists of their mates but they also drink from their necks when being intimate, the vampire only has to control his or her urge to empty every drop of the mate's blood because a mate's blood will be the sweetest thing they've ever tasted.They drink their mate's blood once every few days".Lucian looks into her eyes slowly."So in my case, the blood i licked from your wrist is the sweetest. The purest i have ever tasted", he licked his lower l
"Story time", Lucian says.Kim is dragged into the cell with the rest and chained up, the five warriors dead."He took my true mate and my rightful place as the Alpha King"."They were never yours", Marian says bitterly."Keep quiet!", James says with venom."Your mate?"."Your position?", Annaliese asks."He's my uncle", Kieran says slowly."I loved your mother with every might, i saw her first and fell in love with her first. We were getting along well, she was almost in love with me then she met your father!"."Everything she felt for me disappeared. She went crazy about your father and he fell for her, i was forgotten. Discarded like a rag"."She wasn't your mate", Marian argues."I don't care, i loved her!"."Then they gave birth to you", he says with hatred."I had to hide my broken heart and watch the love of my life go"."But you found your mate"."And she wasn't enough, she was
"Why are you doing this?", Annaliese asks."Because i want to and i can", Lucian replies."Now the last cell".He places the handcuffs on their wrists again and leads them to another cell. Then he unlocks the door and opens it wide."Don't worry, It's empty", Lucian says.Suddenly a vampire lifts Annaliese up over his shoulders. They do the same for Marian and drop them in the cell."Now It's not"."We all know how Kieran is when he's having a fit of rage so I'll just leave you here so he doesn't destroy my house looking for you".Annaliese didn't fight back, neither did Marian.They know it won't do any good.The vampires uncuff them and chain them to the walls then lock the metal door.Annaliese's wrists burn as she realizes the chains are made purely of silver.The chains are long making Annaliese run forward to spit in Lucian's face.The smell of burning flesh reaches her
•Day 2•For an untrustworthy vampire, Lucian fulfils his promise and gives Annaliese her son.They keep to the room that is given to them and sleep close to each other with Phoenix betweenthem.Breakfast is brought to their room."Do you think Kieran will come?", Annaliese asks."If anything Annaliese, you should trust your mate", Marian replies."I do trust him"."So do you think he'll come?', Marian asks."Yes, he will"."Good", she nods."But i won't wait for him to show up, this place is nauseating and i want to leave"."And exactly how do you plan on doing that?"."The girl that brought breakfast this morning?, she's human"."So?"."I can ask her to help us".Marian looks at Annaliese like she's grown twenty heads."You're going to get her killed".•Day 3•Breakfast is brought to t
