Michael's point of view:
The same familiar scent crossed my nose, alarming my senses that she was close.
How can I not recognize such a delicious scent even when she wasn't yet in my view? There must be something about that she-wolf. The thing is that I care less about what is special about her.
Yet, I believe I need a new blood slave. Kathrine isn't as special as I thought, and the taste of her blood isn't as tasty as it was the first time my fangs kissed the veins on her neck. Again, what to expect from a human?!
Humans were much funnier before my father and his coven came up with their stupid rules.
It was claimed that those rules were made to protect our kind, but it did nothing more than to make a strong species like us – vampires, hide out from weakening like humans.
Eliza, who was standing by my side, seemed to have a close idea about what was on my mind as if she was reading my thoughts.
"No killing brother… Those are the rules!"
"Not all the rules are to be followed… Some are just made to be broken…" I started, but she cut me off.
"Not this time, we're here for what's bigger, put that in mind!"
Even when we were twins, Eliza and I never settled on one thought. We're like the moon and the sun, can't live without each other, and can't stand each other.
I hated her most when she spoke with my father's tone; she sounds hell annoying – just like him.
"Besides, those rules are set to protect our own…"
"From what?" I cut her off huffing and puffing since I was done with no sense my head was filled by all these years. "Humans? We feed on humans… They shall fear us, not the opposite!"
"I do agree brother," she sighed, and I was feeling a 'but' coming soon. "… but think about it, without rules, how shall we guarantee that humans – our first food resource wouldn't extinct, and if it happened – shall we feed on each other? That's the future you're wishing for your people as the upcoming King. Also, have you forgotten about hunters? Dead bodies draw them to clean the mess, and by cleaning the mess, I got to remind you that hunting is their way to clean the mess created by creatures of the nights. Shall I also point at the fact that those hunters are kindly hard till impossible to get killed? Also, feeding in our own way is easier than you changing your blood slaves." She finished her speech while rolling her eyes.
As much as I want to disagree, she was right, but only about hunters. Anyway, until I find the moonstone that was stolen by those disgusting wet dogs, I need to wait.
Years ago, our precious moonstone disappeared from the vampires' palace in a vague way, leaving nothing behind but a disgusting scent of some wet dogs - werewolves.
After investigating, and with the help of a witch – the greatest Keya of course, we end up discovering that our stone is hidden inside the 'Bloody Moon pack'.
The thing is that we spent over twenty years fetching each and every spot on that damn pack, yet, we ended up finding nothing.
Now we're done playing nice, we have a serious plan to apply for now. If the alpha doesn't hand us what belongs to us, we'll be taking his precious one – his little daughter.
I've spent years watching her and waiting for the time to come. Still, I need to wait a few days.
I made my mind up, then decided to go out to keep an eye over my little wolf.
I masked my scent using some scentiom, a very rare plant that only a witch knows how to plant. Of course, its name explained it. This exact plant masks the scent of anyone who used it, and makes it even impossible to feel its presence.
I made my way out from Kathrine's house, it is where we're all staying while being in New Orleans. One fact to state, since she became my slave, all of her belongings became mine.
My instincts led the way toward my next sleeping beauty. She was standing in the middle of the woods alone, looking at the sky.
I'd toss a golden coin just to know what's on her mind.
The scent of another wolf was all filling the space, I bet it's not anyone but her mate. That guy has something off on him, like if he's planning for something odd.
He and the pack Luna kept on visiting the head witch in the French Quarter, which seemed way too off.
Anyway, I have no interest in digging into their life. All that matters is to have my next beauty suitable for me.
I do really wonder if her blood is as tasty as her scent. I'm deeply wondering how I would deal with her, or what I should do to her.
I mean, shall I turn her after that I claim her. She's already a wolf, is it even possible?
I'll try, who knows what can happen?
The thing is that she's a very important part of our plan. She's the main key to restoring our rights, our source of power - the moonstone.
Lost in her sight I was when I scented another scent crossing my nose. No way it's what I'm thinking about - Eliza.
She wasn't alone; she brought some of the men with her. Not what I'm thinking about… How about her earlier speech about following the rules?
Based on her speed, they're going to be circling the girl in a matter of a few seconds.
Indeed, that's what happened!
As for the she-wolf, the moment she sent their presence, she didn't cower nor try to escape even knowing that they were many, and she was alone.
A true alpha blood - what am I talking about?
Anyway, part of me wanted to watch from afar. Still, I won't let my sister celebrate the victory on her own.
In no time, I left the spot I was hiding in and made my entrance along with my sister.
Jade's point of view:"Well… Well… Well!… Look who we have here?"A female vampire spoke among the bunch who were circling me. Her only presence screams power, and I was able to feel it. I know for sure that she's a high rank in her society – the vampires’ society.I was located in a circle in which there were six other male vampires standing by the side of the female.In no time, another male vampire joined them, his mere presence overcomes hers in no time. He might be the same rank as her if not higher than her.Something about the way they looked at each other can tell that they are not really on good terms."Partying without inviting me? That hurts my feelings!" He sarcastically states, causing the female to roll her eyes while not trying to hide her annoyance."What should I say? We're vampires, fast by our nature. We don't wait for slow ones…" She stated but was interrupted again by the same one."Where have you lost your values? I mean, where goes the girl who used to follow
Tristan's point of view:My head was resting on my bed while I was facing the ceiling of my room. The creamy color of the roof seemed too swift for my intense mood.My body was resting as if I was about to sleep. The truth is that I'm far from sleeping, not after what I was informed today.I'll soon have to be the alpha of the pack, it's what I've been dreaming about since the first day I came to acknowledge my position in the pack.I should've rejoiced the moment and celebrated such a moment. Still, nothing seemed perfect as it's seen.It's all happening so fast, and I don't know for how long I can resist all these handy matters that my father is laying on my bare shoulders.Of course, I received the best training since I spent most of my life in the palace. Not that I'm the only one receiving such an honor. Well, most of - if it's not all the alphas of my generation are the same, and it's all started only in those last two decades.The shocking news claiming that the first son of ea
Hell no! My long-awaited mate is a vampire, and worst, she's Michael's sister.I planted my claws inside the soft land I was standing above. There was no way I was going to interfere in that bottle.I mean, on one hand, Jade was my sister. On the other hand, the girl was my mate. Although she's the enemy, she is still my mate.I've always believed that everything happens for a reason. So if she's destined to me, it should be for a reason.But she's the enemy, what am I supposed to do with her?To love her?I mean, perhaps we're meant for something big…I've tried to pull myself into all sorts of positive thinking. The thing is that I've had no time to think since Jade was inches from killing my mate. I set my paws free and decided to stop her.I lost all control over my wolf since all I was seeing was red, and without thinking twice. I pushed Jade away with all I had of power.The moment Jade was thrown away, I found myself standing in her previous spot.My mate was below me, and God
Jade's point of view:Knowing that my brother didn't attack me, instead, he saved my life and erased a bit of bitterness that grew inside of my heart.That was definitely one of the worst days in my entire life. After that my brother was declared innocent, we made our pack toward the packhouse.Not that he would be killed or thrown out of the pack if he was found guilty. That would've happened to anyone but not the alpha's son. He would just be punished or scolded by my father. Also, lose all sorts of respect from his pack which is not a good thing for someone who's being the next alpha.Thank God, nothing from the previous things I've mentioned is happening. He proved to be the best alpha ever….I was still in my wolf form, and I didn't want to meet or talk with anyone, especially my mate. So, I made it inside my room by getting inside using the window, only then I shifted back to my human form.I cursed my luck since I was putting on my favorite peach cream off-shoulder dress, and i
Jade's point of view:"Okay, fine! I'm leaving… Take your time… Perhaps, re-think if we're even good for each other!"The same sentence kept repeating inside of my head, causing my wolf to go crazy. Did he reject me indirectly? I can't believe it.Think if we're even good for each other - I mean, why would he do such a thing. What's wrong with me? What am I even missing?I pulled myself up and left the bed. It's already three days, yet James keeps ignoring my presence.Once I was facing my reflection in the mirror, I couldn't recognize who I was.My face was the same…The same green eyes and blue shades, yet, I don't remember when they became that lifeless and dull.My tan skin used to be shiny and breathtaking but just like my eyes, it's so dull. My hair was still messy, but I believe I can fix it into a bun since I wasn't feeling like straightening it.I'll apply some makeup on to make my face look more alive and light.I started with my eyeshadow and some brushes. I felt lost choos
Jade's point of view: A matter of minutes before the so-called alpha king steps inside of our territory. I don't know for what reason, but I don't feel good about it. I wore a formal white shoulder dress, along with a pair of white high heels, and fixed my hair into a bun. And it was all I needed to feel satisfied with my female beta appearance. Tristan and his mate things cannot leave my mind. I don't mind him having a vampire as a mate as long as he is happy. Still, it's way too much to take in one day. One day she was trying to kill me, the other day – I learned that she's my brother's mate. I would be a liar if I deny how much I hate it all. Still, I can't do anything about it. I mean if they are destined for each other; it means that they are perfect for each other. First, Tristan and I sat up and said that he needed to meet her at least for another time before he made a decision. Then not to care about anyone's saying as long as he believed she's doing the right thing, only
Lucien’s point of view: “ Remind me where we are going again, and why?” I run my hand over my head while questioning Caine, my beta. “ One of our remarkable fighting’s in taking his alpha position.” “ Yeah… Congratulations to him!” Caine looked at me as if I were growing heads. Matter of fact, I felt like laughing while looking at how much he’s annoyed by me. Yet, I can't do a thing about it. In fact, I kind of appreciate that he never forgot that even when he is my buddy , friend, and beta, that I’m still his alpha, and I hate to be disrespected. “ We’re talking about Tristin, from the Bloody Moon pack!” Although I wasn’t looking at my face, I'm quite sure that a weird smile made its way toward my face the moment Tristan’s name was mentioned. I still remember him since he was training here in the palace, he was quite memorable, and I am indeed eager to add him as a member to my pack. “ When exactly?” “ We need to take the way the upcoming next two hours, so that we can mak
Jad’s point of view:My heart, I’m sure that everyone around was able to hear my heartbeat. Still, at that moment, I catered less about what they were able to hear or notice.I was locked down as a prisoner in those strangers' mesmerizing eyes. I never felt connected to anyone the way I’m feeling right now, even with my mate. The moment I remembered James, I tried my best to pull myself back to reality. It isn’t decent what I was doing. I do already have a mate, but still, I’m feeling captured by a stranger, and it’s something that didn’t happen for the first time.I did the same when I saw that vampire, and here I am again doing it.I tried to breathe in and out slower than I am doing right now. In fact, I was already drawing a lot of attention. Not only for the way I was acting but also because of the reaction of the three royalties.The three of them were looking at me with a mixture of feelings. I can tell that they were all shocked to see me as if it was not their first time me
Jade's point of view: If you asked me about what was going on, I swear I wouldn't answer you. Not because I don’t want to, but since I don’t understand a thing. All I know is that my brother and I, are to be the newly collected collections for our alpha king. I don’t know for what reason - but every single rumor I’ve ever heard about him is circulating inside my head in a scary way. From the one claiming that he had killed his mate to the one stating that he kills she-wolves after spending a night with them. For instance, I thought about running away not caring about anyone else. Still, I can’t ‘not care’. How could I when the safety of my pack, family, and my brother is on the verge? Tristan, on the other hand, seems as puzzled as I am. He doesn't know for what reason I shall be in the palace. I know, I know..! You might think that all I care about is just me, myself, and I. That's not true! Tristan and I know exactly why he is being called to the Palace. Whenever the alph
Jade’s point of view/ The door busted open revealing the three royalties and of course, my attacker. I felt terror apo,n seeing his face, especially with the look printed on his face. He was looking at me with hatred which was weird, but what was even We're done with that I was feeling hurt because he was looking at me that way. Something must be wrong with me. There are other things I should care about more than he had that full of hatred look on his face. I should care about the fact that he attacked me, and he might do it again. For some unknown reason, I was feeling safe around him. Call me dumb, stupid, or fool but I was even enjoying the way he smells. He smelled like a mixture of all the good perfumes anyone can ever think about. Have I talked about how handsome he looks? In fact, all three royalties look super handsome. Still; the king AKA my attacker, looks like a star falling from the sky. He was breathtaking and was not only bigger than most of the guys in the
Jade’s point of view: I don’t know for how long the darkness was surrounding me, but I felt for an instant that it was time for me to wake up.I forced my eyes open only to notice that I was at the pack hospital. First, I didn't know what I was doing in the hospital.Still, right after, it all started coming back.The more I member what happened, the more I feel terrified. I still don’t know who the guy was, but for sure he is royalty.I mean, he threw Tristan as if he was dealing with a feather.I was still dealing with the demons in my head when I noticed that I was surrounded by my family members.I was glad to be surrounded by my closest one, only to be surprised that I was blamed for what happened.Have I mentioned that the one leading the discussion was my mate.It all started when my mother asked me about what happened.“ What have you done this time?” She questioned, as if she was done dealing with all my issues. Not that she ever did anything for me rather than judging me.“
Lucien's point of view:We sat there for a while silently looking at each other.In a hand, it can be her. On the other hand, I saw her dating between my hands. Yet, she is Talia, a never easy going female that would surprise you with her smartness, and even make you question yourself about whether she’s a blessing or a curse.I was never the beast I am right now. She was the one making what I am.She played me into challenging my father, ending his life in a battle for the title. Then, she made me believe that everyone around me is my enemy, and that they would do to me the same as I did to my father. They will take what’s mine back then.I was young, fooled by love, and I couldn’t see through the biggest picture.Because of her, I burned my half-siblings into ashes.Because of her, I poisoned every relative to me that has or has not had any chance to have the throne after me. I invited them all and killed them under the walls of my palace.She was cruel, heartless, and demanding, a
