>Flashback in Foresight… THIRD PERSON Scarlett looks up as the Mystery male approaches where she lies protecting Phoenix and pleas. "Please, I beg you, don't kill him... I will give you anything.." The Mystery male smirks as he stops in front of Scarlett. He then slides his hand into her hair and grabs it hard as he says, "Anything? Are you sure about that? As what I want from you, my princess, I will not get while he is alive..." "Please... Tell me how to stop this. Tell me how to save him?" Scarlett sobs as the Mystery male thinks this over. He then gives her the answer she doesn’t want to hear. "I want you willingly, my dear... And I want you to love me... You are part way there, but while he is alive, I will never have your full love..." "Killing him will not make me love you..." Fire flicks in Scarlett’s eyes as she struggles a little in his grip and then spits in his face, the Mystery male tightens his hold on her hair, stopping her movements and pulling her up off of P
GRIFFIN I then continue to hold Phoenix as I whisper the minor healing chant once more, returning the energy that had just been siphoned from him by joining with me for that trip into the past and then into what could have been one possible future. Phoenix stumbles back until he lands on his arse. He then looks up at me and opens his mouth. I wait for him to speak, only nothing seems to come out. He sits there staring at me as his mouth opens and closes a few times. He then seems to whisper with horror lacing his voice, “That could have happened?” Even as I nod my head, he says again, “That could really have happened if I died?” “Yes, that was one possible future that could have passed if that one moment did not go as it did. If Silas had decided to kill you instead of leaving with Scarlett, your son wouldn’t have gone after her, therefore finding his mate along with finding Prince Alpha Williams. Sometimes, just the smallest of decisions can make a tremendous difference to what
SCARLETT The years on the run with Silas were hard, but the last few months on the run from him and then in Alpha Giovanni's possession were the worst. Being so close to my family and then being ripped away once more was nearly the death of me. However, once Phoenix saves me and we return to the castle, I can finally relax. After I had recovered over a few days, Phoenix allowed our pups to enter our room. Ryker, Jayce, Opal, and River entered, and each gave me a hug. I was surprised at how much my little ones had grown. The worst thing about seeing them all was that I didn’t know them. I wasn’t here; I didn’t see them grow. Ryker and Jayce were only a few months old when I last saw them, last hugged them, and last time I told them that I loved them. Seeing my girls, Opal and River, was even worse. I had only gotten two days with them once they were born before Silas had taken them from me and sent them to Phoenix. They didn’t stay long as I had still
>ROMEO< This female is something else, I raise my hand and place it on the back of her neck and pull her into me kissing her. She moans and slides her hands up my chest and wraps her arms around my neck, I can't stop my fangs from lengthening, I break the kiss and slowly place gentle ones down her neck she whispers "I know who you are and you are mine..." I smile at her certaintyas I sink my fangs into her neck, retract them and drink and like Julian with his mystery female earlier as soon as her blood hit my lipsand tongue I knew. This beautiful and powerful female witch was mine, I don't drink too much swiping my tongue over my bite but not erasing it completely. I don't think I just pick her up and move, I don't stop until I am in my room at the clan leader's house. Once inside I put her back onto her feet and kiss her p
>RILEY<I wake to a knock on the door and a tug on my private link."Riley?? Are you actually sleeping?" "I was Jules... What do you need?" "Ri, you never sleep... What happened?" I smile as I open my eyes and look down at the beautiful female that is still asleep in my arms. I tighten my arms around her just a little, placing a soft kiss on the top of her head and then turn back to Julian,"You weren't the only one to find their mate..." "Well congratulations bro, I am sorry to pull you away from her, but the recruitments are here and my mate Skylar has some information that we will need to get to Uncle Dominic and Nathaniel as soon as possible." "Okay, be down in five!"I was so hoping to have some time with Savannah as Romeo did through the early hours this morning. I run my hands over her soft skin and she stirs, looking up a
SKYLER I have never been this brave when it comes to speaking to anyone. I usually try to stay away from everyone. It's safer that way. "I can take you to get it shortly. There is just one thing I would like to do first if you would let me?" "Y..you w..want t.to b..bite m..me a..again?" He steps that little closer, causing me to tilt my head up so I can continue to look into his eyes. "Yes, I would like to bite you again, but this one will make it safe for you to stay within my kind... May I?" "Will it hurt?" I whisper, starting to get lost in his eyes again, like when we were on the bed before. "You will only feel a little sting, and then it will be pleasurable." I don't know if I trust him, but I can't break the connection I have with his eyes. He then leans in and kisses me. I slowly wrap my arms around him as he deepens the kiss, he then slowly moves his kiss from my lips along my jaw and down my neck, I expect him to sink his fangs in there but he just scrapes the sharp
SKYLER Julian then steps back and allows me to move off of the wall, as he turns around and knocks on the same door again. He then takes my hand and leads me down to the front porch, where we wait for whoever was behind the door he knocked on. I stand with my back to the door as Julian holds me tight to his side; it isn't long before the door opens again and I hear another guy join us; I look as I hear the new guy say, "Julian, this is Savannah." "Nice to meet you." I recognise the guy as the one I bumped into coming out of the shop that day. I then look at the girl and I have to blink a few times as I frown, asking myself. It can't be the Savannah, can it? It can't be the same Savannah I met back in that other town, can it? It's then I hear her gasp and actually look at her as she says, "Skylar?" "Savannah?" I laugh as she does and we both seem to pull away from the guys at the same time. I give her a hug as she gives me one. As we pull back, I say. "I didn't expect to see yo
>RILEY<After looking over everything that Skylar had on this human Organization the S.D.E, and especially the final memo that was sent to what seems to be the big boss. Julian rings Nathaniel and Dominic,“Jules? What’s up? Did something go wrong with your assignment?” “No, Your Highness…”“Jules why?… What’s happened?” “Is Uncle Dominic with you?”“Yeah, he's here.”“Good, because we are in trouble…”“What do you mean? Are you in trouble?” “No, Nathaniel I mean everyone… Every supernatural not only here in our kingdom but in every kingdom around the world…”“Julian, what the hell are you talking about?” I then hear the door over the phone open and someone enter. I was surprised by the soft voice that enters
THIRD PERSON After the close call during the war of watching and nearly losing Seraphina, Dominic decided to pass the throne to Nathaniel and take his Lady Seraphina somewhere safe, somewhere he could protect her but still be close to family for a werewolf needs her pack. Calling for a gathering, the entire King kingdom turns up along with King Noah and a few of the new allied kingdoms they had made due to the war. King Dominic and Queen Seraphina stand in front of their Royal thrones. It isn’t long before the doors open and the trumpets sound the arrival of Crowned Prince Nathaniel. Walking into the throne room with Prince Julian and Consot Skylar flanking him on one side, Princess Victoria and Consort Griffin flanking him on the other along with the rest of the Royal family following behind. Nathaniel stops and kneels at the bottom of the small set of stairs that leads up to the thrones. King Dominic and Queen Seraphina get to their feet and take a few steps to be standing at the
SKYLAR Julian made a few phone calls, and it wasn’t long before someone he seemed to know turned up to drive my Berkeley back to the castle while Julian took me back on his bike. It surprised me at how good it felt to be on the bike, at how free it made me feel. Even though I had been travelling for weeks, I hadn't really realised that I had stayed so close to the castle and to Julian. It only took us a couple of days to return on the bike. Julian also made sure to test me and Iris on controlling our pheromones while in the company of others in different places and slightly different situations on the trip. Unfortunately, it is going to take just that little longer for me to totally have it under control, as it seems to be connected to both hunger and my emotions. If my emotions are high, my pheromones slip just a little more, and Julian needs to give me a little reminder. Julian pulls up in front of the castle and as I climb and take off my helmet, I look around, still in awe of t
ROMEO Before I can decide anything, the compulsion running through me takes hold and takes over. With a new goal embedded in my mind, I make my way silently through the corridors, making my way toward the human with the surface passkey. I come up behind the first human. I wrap one arm around his chest, pinning his arms while slipping my hand over his mouth and pulling his head to the side. My fangs lengthen, and I sink them into his neck. I drink greedily my bloodthirst surfacing, only as soon as I swallow the first mouthful of blood, I pull my fangs out and shove the human away and into the wall, knocking him out as I quickly wrap my hands around my throat as it burns. I try to take breath after breath, but the burning intensifies, making it even harder to breathe. I collapse to my knees, throwing out one hand to catch myself from hitting the floor. I cough and cough as my body tries to expel the blood. However, due to bloodlust, it was absorbed immediately. As his blood continue
ROMEO I feel starved as I try to move my body, my arms, and my legs, but nothing moves. I force open my eyes and look around. I am not surprised when I see both Kolby and Vlad standing over me with smirks on their faces. Ajax steps up and wraps something around my neck, saying, “Just a precaution. Sir.” I then hiss as I hold in the scream at the feel of the needle sliding into the skin on my neck and that familiar burning slides into my system and then spreads around my body. Kolby adds more and more until my body seizes and I pass out. The next time I wake, Morrisa seems to have me on her metal table once more. I watch as she cuts into my skin and chuckles as she tries to fight the healing in my body. I then hear the door open and see Kolby step up next to her with the standard needle in his hand. He steps that little closer as he speaks to Morrisa. “Have you made any progress yet?” “Not really. It is proving elusive. I can't seem to
SKYLAR As our bodies finally start to calm, I remove my fangs and slide my tongue over the skin, healing it. Julian soon follows as he does the same before pulling back and sliding his hand on my cheek once more and saying. “You are my life, Skylar. Nothing is more important to me than you. I love you.” For the first time, I feel the truth in his words as he opens up his mind and floods me with every emotion he is feeling; I smile with tears in my eyes as Iris purrs in my head and she makes him jump and his eyes go wide as her tail slips out and wraps around him, pulling us even tighter against him. I lean next to his ear and whisper. “Iris is happy, content and feels safe…” “Iris?” “Yeah, that’s her name. The other girl or whatever she is in here with me now…” I tap my temple gently. “Did this Iris tell you what you now are?” “She said I wasn’t human anymore…” Julian removes his hand from my cheek so that
SKYLARIris doesn’t answer me but nods her head in understanding. I then feel that sting of fangs and a much smaller amount of liquid in my mouth. I dart my tongue out once more, swiping it over the source of the liquid, and let out a low moan.I feel sparks spread as fingers skim the side of my face. I then hear his soft raspy and sexy voice as he whispers,“I love you, Skylar.”Tears sting my eyes as I slowly open them and look into his. They look sad but brighten as a smile slowly forms on his lips and his body seems to shake. He then whispers,“I’m sorry…”He leans closer and presses his lips to mine in a soft, gentle kiss. I close my eyes, drowning in his kiss. Just as he pulls back and looks into my eyes, I remember the girl from the celebration. I struggle a little and try to move from underneath him. He moves slightly, however, instead of letting me move, he pins me to the bed as he says,
JULIANJust as he is about to take a swig of the big pint of beer his friends had placed in front of him, I cover it with my hand and lean in close and with a slight command embedded in my tone; I whisper into his ear.“Come with me. I want to show you something.”I don’t miss the slight red tinge that goes to his cheeks. He then gets to his feet and with me standing at his side, we make our way away from the table and his friends. I place my hand at the lower of his back and lead him up a flight of steps, sending out my senses and making sure that there is no one around or within the room next to us.I open the door and show him in. He then surprises me as I shut the door, turning me around and smashing his lips to mine. I allow him this and then turn us around so that it is him against the door, not me. I then skim light kisses down his neck as I feel my fangs tingle and lengthen.Being a little unfair, I allowed Conner to
JULIANHowever, as soon as I remove them, Skylar’s body seizes once more, tensing and making her back arch off the bed only as far as my body over hers would allow. When her body settles to the bed once more, tears sting my eyes as she seems to send a pulse along our connection and her life tether to me seems to grow just a little.I do this again and again. Every time I feel that she needs it and every time I do it, her tether and connection seem to get stronger and she seems to come a little more back to me. After what seems to be an endless amount of time, there is a knock on the door. I look up and over at the door. I send my senses out and let out a small sigh as I say,“Come in Griffin.”Griffin opens the door and enters the room, closing the door behind him. He swipes out his hand and walks over without getting too close, making the room smell clean and fresh as he says,“Your venom and blood are doing what it's
JULIAN I could feel my connection to Skylar fading, so I didn’t need Savannah’s words of hurry to let me know that I didn’t have much time. I check the location that Savannah sent through to me from her tracking spell, quickly start my bike and speed off down the highway. It doesn’t take me long to get to the small town marked as the location. I slide my bike to a stop when I pull into what looks like the main street and there are 6 different motels. I look around me and a shiver of fear runs through me at which one she is in. I get off my bike and turn in a circle, looking at all the motels; I pull out my phone and check it again. Only the tracking spell didn’t pinpoint the exact motel she was staying in and the longer I was standing there, the more I could feel her connection fading. I am surprised when I feel my head fill with calm as I hear his voice in my head, “Julian. Take a deep breath. As in training, breathe and focus.” I do as he says. I close my eyes and take a deep c
