~Vaela

With my palm pressed against my sweaty forehead, I stride out into the alleyway, pacing back and forth.

"I can't believe you did that," I exclaim, glancing back at Hale who saunters casually from the restaurant, smirking smugly.

He's essentially confirmed I will never see Alexander again.

I back away as Hale advances on me, the heat in his gaze telling me everything I need to know. The build up of my orgasm has diminished into nothingness, but the dampness between my legs suggests another word from Hale could remedy that.

His gaze flashes, searing hot. "I can't believe you didn't find your release when I told you to.”

My breath hitches, but I refuse to let him see how much his words affect me. I came on this date to stop thinking about Hale, and now I’m ready for him again.

"We were in a nice establishment,” I comment breathily.

In reality, I got up because there was no way I was going to go through with that, right in front of Alexander.

Hale holds his hand out to me. "Come on

    ~VaelaAs consciousness creeps up on me again, my mind scrambles to piece together the fragments of memory that are missing.Splitting pain rears up in rolling waves, assaulting my head as my eyes flutter open.I was hit. And now I’m splayed across a wooden floor, limbs aching in protest.Raising my gaze, I scan the unfamiliar room I’ve been discarded in, spotting a person sitting at a table close by, back to me.I’m dead. Or I’m dreaming.Either way, my world is ending.It can’t be him. I haven’t seen him in decades, but last time I did, tears were streaming from his eyes as he paced back and forth, yelling at me. My gaze was pinned to the knife in his hand, that would end my life swiftly only moments later.It’s Trace. I once loved him. And he murdered me.I lean upward, bracing myself up on my elbows. "What...What the-"He turns around immediately, discarding whatever he was doing."Vaela, you're awake,” he murmurs, striding over to me.Dropping my head, I squeeze my eyes shut past

    ~VaelaHale drinks in the scene in front of him, expression muddled with confusion."What the hell is going on?" He demands, looking between Trace and I.Trace now cowers against the far wall, mortified. He thought I was hallucinating after the hit I took to the head, and now he’s looking at a Sin."You're the Pureblood Vaela talked about." His voice shakes as he speaks."And who are you?" Hale demands.Trace swallows, pushing away from the wall as Hale strides in, slamming the door closed behind him. He’s realising how weak he is compared to the Sun, so he may as well own his fear."I'm Trace. I'm her boyfriend.” I grimace. Trace is setting himself up to face what he inflicted upon me all those years ago.Hale blinks, coming to terms with who he is looking at."You're the one who murdered her," he says softly.His tone is deceptive. I can feel the anger rolling off him, so palpable it hurts me, and I'm thoroughly enjoying this exchange already, even if I've fought against all these w

    ~Vaela“Mate huh.”I chew on my fingernail. “I know.”Glancing at Eyla, I scowl at her smirk. She’s been infinitely amused since Hale brought her up to the cave, and we told her together that we are mates. Naturally, she was overjoyed for a moment, before she went on a rant about how obvious it was.“I knew it, and so did you, you just didn’t want to hear it,” she says, jabbing me in the side multiple times teasingly, making me jump.I'm still not entirely held. Being mortal again has reminded me of how long the recovery process can be.“He made it seem impossible. I’m just glad he was wrong about it," I admit, stretching out over the bed. I've spent most of my days here, trying to pretend my thoughts aren't driving me crazy.I want to be normal again. I want to be me.“Have you slept with him yet?” Eyla asks.I sigh. “No, I only found out a little while ago.”It's not like it hasn't been on my mind. In fact, each time I look at Hale I think about it, and I know he's thinking about it

Hale shakes his head. "So you're serving him?""I serve no one, but myself. But where he happens to succeed, as do I." Keo spreads his arms out, smirking. I can imagine how such a smile has disarmed many in the past.But I see the cruel intentions behind it."Hale...What's happening?" I question.Keo turns his attention to me. "I'm here to warn you, Vaela.""About what?""Your existence is poisoning the very fabric of this fragile realm. And where this realm faces its demise, other's do also," he explains, a tight smile upon his face.He's clearly suggesting that one of these other realms he speaks of is where he originates from. I suppose that explains why he is so ardently pursuing me."Trust me, I don't want to be this way," I grit out.

It's been a couple days since we last talked about how my wound is healing. Admittedly, I'm feeling much better.I grin. "Good, let's have sex then.""Woah," he laughs, leaning forward to rest his forearms on his knees. "We need to be thinking about what is going to happen once you step back into that pool."I sigh, knowing this conversation was coming.It's not like we can avoid it for much longer. Keo is lurking, waiting for my twelve days to be up before he can come and collect me for Relm. I need to make the transition to Immortal again."You'll have to kill me," I tell him. I'm not sure I could do it myself. I died once, I'm not looking forward to doing it again.Hale frowns. He doesn't want this to happen, but what other choice do we have?"You will be sent back to Death's Realm. I know you are familiar with the procedure, so just go

A smile slowly stretches across my face. It worked, or at least, I’m alive.I’m in a small, unfamiliar room. The walls are stained a dark crimson, looking nothing like how I remember when I first came into Death’s realm.This doesn't feel right, but at least I'm Immortal.Standing from the bed, I shake the tension from my shoulders. I need to establish my surroundings, and then wait for a sign from Hale. I just hope this sign comes quickly.The home I've woken in is stunning and decadent, with rich wood furniture and dark carpet.

    *Mature Content Warning!! Read at Your Own Discretion!!*~Vaela"What are you reading?"I look up, mildly irritated that I'm being interrupted, just when my book was getting to the good part."A book," I respond, staring up at my mate, who seems to be enjoying looming over me with a very particular look on his face.I've only been home for two days, and finally I'm feeling better after having a good portion of my blood drained out of me. All my time I've spent reading this book, since it's not like I have anything else to do.Hale rounds my chair, looking over my shoulder. "I was going to ask what kind of book, but I think I get the idea."Frowning, I slam the book shut, dumping it on my lap. There goes that."I wasn't making fun of you," he assures me, leaning down to kiss me on the cheek, which I don't manage to dodge away from in time."Believe it or not, it's quite interesting," I mumble, feeling my cheeks flush.I'm quite sure I know why I picked up this book today.

    ~Vaela Part of me didn’t expect Keo to actually keep his word once he grabbed me and assured me he would return me to my mate. But the moment my feet touch snow, I know everything is going to be okay. Glancing over my shoulder, I see the looming drop down the familiar mountain that I once climbed to a date I could never have imagined. Keo looks around distastefully, either not liking the snow or the height. Even as I sway unnervingly on my feet, still drained of a lot of my blood, I want to hug him. It’s not like he isn’t getting something from our deal, but the fact that he kept his word despite breaking it in the past gives me the sense that maybe the world isn’t trying to punish me. “I’m all about hiding, but up here? Really?” Keo mutters, kicking a clump of ice off the edge of the ridge, watching it shatter against a rock below. "What...what are you, exactly?" I ask, taking cautious steps back into the cave, grateful to be out of the environment. He looks normal…to an exte
