[Madison]
A few minutes later, Moran pulled into a mostly empty parking lot. He turned off the car, unbuckled, and turned in his seat. I unbuckled and leaned forward.
“What’s your demon name?” I asked.
[Madison]Moran turned down a dirt road. A quarter mile down the road, was a large gate attached to a high stone wall. He hit a box on the sun-visor and the gate opened for us. We continued through a thin, man-made wood. Two large trees marked the end of the drive and the beginning of the yard. Moran pulled up to the house so we wouldn’t have to carry the luggage as far.
[Madison]I had to distract myself from the depressing thought of having to give Ford up. I hadn’t eaten anything since I left the apartment that morning. Cooking often calmed my mind and taking care of others was one of my favorite things.
[Madison]I let go of Ford and went back to the entryway to get the bag of electronics. Once Moran gave me the Wi-Fi password, I quickly downloaded
[Serena]I’d been dozing with Rao for a few hours. His body was divine and I wrapped myself around him, my tail curled gently over his waist. I loved how he smelled. It was like a mixture of the forest and deeply nutty spices. Savory and sweet. Sunlight and rich earth.
[Madison]Early Saturday morning, I woke up and stared at Ford. He was gorgeous when he slept. His long dark eye lashes, the slight redness in his full lips from where he would sometimes chew them in his sleep, the shadow of his unshaved facial hair. He was like a renaissance paint
[Madison]We got Raoul settled and set up a rotation to take care of him. I cooked breakfast for everyone. Then, took a plate up to Ford before I ate, so he could have some while it was fresh. For Rao, I brought a mug of warm chicken broth, a glass of fresh water, and a biscuit. Mo
[Rao]Serena sat next to me and leafed through a magazine. I watched her and, though I was a little spacy from the pills, wanted to try and fix what I’d messed up. I just hoped she’d forgive me.
[Madison]I finished setting up the laptop on the kitchen table. The alcove it was situated in was perfect. Ford could sit on the ottoman or lean against the back of the couch if he wanted.

[Madison]I was in my bathroom, working on applying my makeup. It had been about a month since I’d joined the Vasili’s household and he’d finally gotten me a meeting with the doctor who killed my mother. We were seeing him in an hour and I was pretty excited.Suddenly, two arms wrapped around me. The familiar feeling of Bryant kissing my neck softly made me giggle. I leaned into him and breathed in the scent of my love, Ford.I relaxed and closed my eyes. I didn’t want to see Bryant’s baby blue eyes and dark blonde hair when smelling Ford’s scent. I wanted to feel the t
Patrick Devere was excited as he drove through the gates of the Northland Camp. His plan was finally coming to fruition. Anders had the Vasilia, most of the lesser supernaturals were caged or dead, and Nettleston was finally tiring of the little succubus.Now, he just had to taste her blood to confirm she was what he was looking for. Hundreds of years of waiting, all for this goal. All to make him the ruler of the supernaturals.A smile spread across his devilishly handsome face. He glanced at the girl in the backseat of his car. One of his most prized captives. A beautiful young fae. Their blood was so sweet and addictive.Her golden eyes were downcast and her sky blue ha
[3rd person]Winston was still processing his vision when Madison came into the room. Annie and Will had gone to the bathroom to shower and Bryant was staring out the window, wishing he was elsewhere. The bathroom was not soundproof and they all could hear Will and Annie going at it in the spray of the water.“Go on out to the kitchen. Breakfast is ready.” She told them.
[Madison]Anders went down the hall after I turned my back on him. That hadn’t gone very smoothly, but I learned Drayce was absolutelynotthe one who ordered the fires. He was too soft to be cool with killing kids.It gave me an opening, too. He’d be more open to what I was saying once he felt like I really saw him and wanted to he
[Madison]Will patted my shoulder as I sat on the bed. I couldn’t believe I hurt Winston. I should have thought of what it would mean to have him in my wings all night. Bears ran hotter than wolves. I didn’t realize it got worse as they slept. If not for the headache that woke me, I might not have been able to cool him down.I was supposed to be a better option than the camps, and here I was endangering them. Val wo
[Winston]I woke the next morning feeling overheated. Madison’s wings were cozy, but I tended to radiate heat while I slept and it created a cocoon of hot, humid air. I tried to figure out how to get out of them without waking her, but it didn’t seem possible. I rolled over and rubbed her shoulder.Madison reached out and held me tightly to her. I closed my eyes as I felt a wave of dizziness overcome me. A vision was forcing itse
[Ford] The Helvegr was finishing the clean-up from dinner when I entered the kitchen. They looked up at me. I headed to the stove to grab the biggest plate they’d filled and wrapped. Grabbing a fork, I started eating while leaning against the counter.“Minerva?” I grinned.“Tony.
[Ford]When I went back to my body, I found that my friends had managed to lay me out on the couch. I appreciated it. Moran was sitting next to me, on the coffee table. Rao and Val were pacing back and forth behind the chairs. I couldn’t see Chris or Tony.“He’s back!” Moran shouted.&nbs
