ARES) "No, Fang..." I howled, using my Alpha voice, but I wasn't his Alpha. He wasn't marked by me. He was still his own animal, a lone wolf in his old pack. I quickly mind-linked Kai to let him know we were in the library. "What the hell is this creature? I told you we should get the hell out of this place." Storm ran and stopped in the library. Meera was huddling next to Zien, and Raven was cursing at the Lycan. Her eyes met mine, as she took a step back, shaking her head. "Fang, get out." The Lycan whirled around and bared his teeth at Storm. Storm hated the disrespect, but I calmed him down. This wasn't the time for getting angry, or fighting. We had to calm Fang down and got him back into the room. "Alpha," he said, poking a claw into his chest. "Who?" He growled out as his eyes pierced Raven. Raven's lips trembled as she looked at me and my brother. Kai walked in and stood next to me. He mind-linked me, asking if he wanted to tackle Fang. I told him to wait for a few minu
(ARES) "You go with Raven and Kai. We will deal with this," I said to Zien, and he nodded as the three of them walked away as the rest of us turned towards the mottling, ugly piece of shit. Bloodmongrels were the worst of the rogue shifters, banished away from the pack for their horrendous crimes, and as time passed, some of the rogues would lose their humanity and go fully wild, never shifting back into their humans again. We quickly shifted as Alessander grabbed two guns in his hands and started shooting rounds after rounds. The animals were relentless. But between the four of us, we finished the two mongrels quickly, until they were crushed bones and blood. Zien walked out with the stone in his hand, staring at it strangely. It was easier than I expected. "Stop," Storm said. "Do not jinx it." "We should get the hell out of there," Raven said as Zien pushed the shiny dagger into his pocket. We all turned around and quickly started to walk back. "Oh fuck," Raven hissed and we
(ELYN) The lights were fully on when I woke up. My body shuddered. I took in a deep breath, trying to calm my heart. I saw Ares in my dream and he was running away from me. What did the dream mean? Did it mean he would find his mate, and leave me? Or was it just a token of my own fear playing with my head? "You were crying in your dream. What did you dream?" I looked up to see the princess. "I don't remember. Why didn't you come back?" "My father was being a suspicious bugger. I had to bide my time so that I won't get caught. Now, we don't have much time to wait, Elyn. You have to leave soon. I had overheard the assholes talking, and it is not anything good for you." "I know. They told me what they are going to me. Such a nice, generous men," I said with a sarcastic frown as she removed my chains fully. This was the first time my hands were not hurting from the weight of the chain. I almost sagged in relief, my body begging to just curl down on the floor and go back to sleep. R
(ELYN) I still couldn't believe. My father had saved me. And now I was flying home with him. The vampires had lost us but I knew they would come for us again. They wouldn't stop until they wanted what I had. “You have the blood stones?” “I have them here. Three.” I whispered. “I know. Did you feel its power?” I nodded. “I sent it with Solomon.” “You did? Who is Solomon?” “The spectre. Solomon Wynters. Zien Wynters. So the asshole Prince was my father’s friend’s son?! “He was my best friend. Lord Coulton and that puppet king were the reason he lost his grandparents and parents, and he- they tortured him until he went mad from it. I would kill them all for that.” Vincys’s face turned dark with anger. “The dark vampires are bad, aren’t they? Evil.” “King Egor isn’t evil, but he is spineless. Lord Coulton and his army of dark vampire, they are the true enemies. They must be eliminated,” Vincys growled. “They were the reason my friend died. My father’s face went hard. “What
(ELYN) ARES. My heart raced as I looked at him. My heart thundered as I turned around and there he was. He was only wearing his pants. He was followed by Zien, Liam, Kai and Everett. There must have been a lot of things going on here since the day I was taken. I mean, Zien… here? And Liam?! What were they all doing here. “Zien? How are you here?" Vincys asked, looking excited. “You- have you seen Raven? Is she here too?” Zien came and hugged Vincys. “Who the hell is Raven?” I asked with a confused look. Ares touched my face with a soft smile. My body burned. Oh, Goddess, I missed him so damn much. William winced a little. “Raven is the green haired demon. She is here, alright, and she is your- you know, sister,” he said as we finally reached the pack house. I had so many questions, but for now, I just wanted to be with Ares. I whirled towards him and sighed. His beard had grown over the days and his hair was messed up, but I had never seen such a beautiful sight in my lif
(ELYN) “I want to mark you, Elyn. I can’t wait, I can’t… everything in me burns to make you mine. Tell me, Elyn... Do you want to be mine?” I wanted nothing more, but… “I want to be yours. I want to be yours from the very first moment, Ares, but…” He stilled on top of me, and he stopped peppering kisses on my shoulder, and I could feel the burn of his eyes on the side of my face. “What?” “Vincys said I have a wolf.” He pulled away fully and then looked at me, his eyes widening. “Oh!” “He was the one who did some kind of magic to keep her dormant. I want to find her, first, Ares, and then… I want to do it right. I want your mark on me, and I want my mark on you, as well, Ares.” I was scared, that if he didn’t have my mark on him, his mate would find him. She couldn’t find him. Call me selfish, and greedy, but he was mine, and I didn’t care about anyone else when it came to Ares. “So it is not a NO?” he said with a deep sigh and I smiled, shaking my head, as I ran my fingers t
(ELYN) We went to the library and every one was there. “Ah,” I said as I walked in. They looked eager. Zien opened a box and brought a dagger out. It looked like it was made of pure silver. My eyes widened as he put it on the desk. "Should we do it here?" "Maybe outside?" I said as I looked at the eager faces staring at me. They nodded and we went to the back of the pack house. Zien placed the dagger there and they looked at me. I grabbed the stones and placed it next to dagger. "Should we do something else?" Nothing happened. I waited. And then the skies turned dark. It was still afternoon, but it looked like it was now night. And then I heard it. The loud thunder. We all gasped as lightning cleaved the sky. It illuminated the dark clouds above. A sense of awe and fear swept along me skin as I witnessed the spectacle. It was marvelous. It was beyond words. The blade was glowing and the red stones became full, and the red light scattered along the dark skies before the
(ELYN) My heart still pounded, and I felt hazy and tired. The pain was too much for me. But now that I had finally shifted into my wolf, the pain had receded. Bit by bit. But still my body was sore. “I am Nix,” she whispered groggily in my head. I was sure this was still strange for her. “I should have fought with the magic and found a way to get to you.” “It is not your fault. But you are here now, Nix, and I am so glad to meet you finally,” I said to my wolf and she sighed, and the drowsy look in her eyes was gone in an instant as she looked up to see Storm. Her body jerked back, and then she purred in my head. “What?” She curiously looked at Storm’s Lycan self, and I could feel the way her heart rate tripled inside her chest. Mine matched hers. Wait? Was I- was she feeling something? Every bone in my body wanted her to feel it, the bond. I wanted him to be mine, truly. I wanted to love him without the fear of ever losing him. My heart pounded as I tried to find what she was
