THIRD PERSON
Over the next 36 hours, Romeo works with Theodore, showing him how to remove the devices from around the other supernaturals in their cavern cells before repairing and modifying his neck device, knowing that he has to put it back on and return to Skylar.It started small. It was something that he had noticed over the time he was on a mission with Devlin or Archer. He started to feel weak if he was away from Skylar for too long.Kolby tested it one day to find that he could spend a max of 72 hours away from Skylar before his body would send him into a seizure, and the only thing to stop it was Skylar’s touch and then a small amount of her blood.This strange connection they had was a reason why any mission Romeo was to do, Skylar either accompanied them or it was done within 60 hours. During the war, Vlad sent Kolby with Skylar to feed Romeo every 60 hours to keep him under control and not lose the best asset they hadTHIRD PERSONRomeo doesn’t answer her this time as he steps out of her arms, turns and makes his way toward the battlefield. He didn’t want to leave her but he still had a responsibility to protect Skylar and she was still in the hands of the enemy, the more Romeo thought about it the more he was convinced that the CEO Vlad was indeed part vampire, if not, he was at least part supernatural.Romeo doesn't want to leave the prospects of a family, but as a wave of weakness passes through him, he knows that without Skylar being safe in Julian's arms, he will suffer. Romeo pushes all those emotions to the side, knowing what Archer and the others are expecting of him.It doesn’t take him long to find Nathaniel and step up in front of him as if they are about to face off against each other and to anyone but them they were... He sighs and opens his family link.“Cousin, I trust you not to kill me but to do what you have to.&rdq
THIRD PERSONAfter what he had to do during the fight with Romeo, Nathaniel takes a little time to himself and ends up on a cliff overlooking the battlefield. He sighs to himself as he scans the terrible sight before him.There are very few bodies lying on the ground, but the ground is painted red, black, blue, green and whatever other colour of blood comes from the many different supernaturals that are involved. This wasn’t something that he or any of the Royals wanted and had hoped that what they had been doing was enough to prevent this war. Yeah, he knew that other than the few that were killed in the first few hours, which was done by controlled rogues, there was no saving them.Nathaniel knows that he has the power to level the battlefield and leave none of the enemy alive, but other than the human hunters and the wild rogues of each species, the enemy is made up of family and friends. Thanks to Riley’s return, they have now been
THIRD PERSON Savannah watches from the sidelines as Romeo walks out onto the battlefield and faces down his cousin, she tries to hold in the tears as she holds one hand to her mouth and one gently on her stomach hoping that she will see her mate again and their baby will know its Father. When she sees that Prince Nathaniel is about to deliver his final blow, Savannah opens her link with Romeo and whispers, “I love you. Please come back to us.” “I’ll be back before you know it…” Romeo groans back, sending all the love he feels along the mate bond until Nathaniel makes that final hit, knocking him out. ------------ SKYLAR I can’t stop the moan that leaves my lips or the arousal that passes through my body after he has sunk his fangs into my neck. I don’t struggle against him and allow him to take his fill. As I start to feel lightheaded, I relax and allow the darkness to take me. I struggle in th
SKYLAR I regretted it as soon as the challenging words had left my mouth; he moved quickly, nearly as quickly as Prince Romeo does, and before I could even scream, he has pulled me down on the bed and is lying over me with one hand around my throat and the other over my mouth. As I struggle underneath him, Vlad moves his hips and legs, pushing them between mine before using his body weight to stop me from moving. Once Vlad had me mostly pinned to the bed, he removed his hand from over my mouth just to cover it with his in a hard and dominant kiss. When he pulls back from the kiss, he tightens his hand that little more around my throat. He then lifts his chest off of mine just enough to move his other hand between us. He picks up my amulet and then seems to hiss as he says, "This may protect you from the supernaturals here but guess what my little hacker, it doesn't protect you from ones like you and me and I know a few of my employees would love to know that they won't get thrown a
SKYLARMy eyes go wide and I jump to my feet when I see Master Archer and Master Devlin walk in with a battered and what seemed to be an only just alive Prince Romeo. I rush over to them, place my hand on his chest as I look at Master Archer and Master Devlin and say,“Lie him on the bed.”I then step back and allow them to move, walking over and lying him on the bed. As soon as they step back, I rush back to his side and I then freeze. I am no doctor. I’m not even a vampire. I have no idea what to do. Tears sting my eyes as I realise that I am useless, that he is lying in front of me dying and I don’t have a clue of what to do.I then let out a slight scream as I slapped my hands to my head as pain exploded through me. I squeeze my eyes shut as I hear a man’s voice in my head that I don’t know,“Skylar? Can you hear me?”“Who?..,”“My name is Memphis. I am family&helli
ROMEOAfter Nathaniel beat and knocked me out, I take a sharp breath in as I was pulled back to consciousness by a wave of power that swept out over the entire battlefield. I try to move and find that I can’t and my body is engulfed in pain and exhaustion due to the lack of blood now running through me.I then drift in and out of consciousness. I vaguely remember Archer and Devlin approaching me. Devlin then picks me up off the ground and throws me over his shoulder before throwing me into the back of the SUV. They were never gentle with anything that they did. I then drift in and out of consciousness again until the SUV comes to a sliding stop, throwing me into the back door.The next thing I remember is the wonderful taste of fresh female blood dripping into my mouth. My eyes snap open, blazing bright red as the taste of her sweet blood causes the start of bloodlust. I lock my eyes with the female as she is slightly leaning over me.I grab her wri
ROMEOI slide my hand on her cheek and look deep into her eyes, letting my Royal aura surface and then surround her allowing it to seep into her and then when I pull it back I watch as the daze fades from her eyes and they fill with tears as she looks around her and shakes her head from side to side and whispers,“Riley? We didn’t, did we?… No… Julian…”“Skylar… Skylar… SKYLAR!”She stops moving and looks at me. I slide my hand on her cheek, wiping away the tears that are falling, and whisper,“No, Skylar. We didn’t.”Her body relaxes, and she lies there with her hands over her face as she silently sobs. I don’t get a chance to remind her that I am the vampire, not the human before I have to move quickly, getting off of her and to my feet and standing so that the person who is about to enter the tent sees me before they see her. I smirk and lower my head
ROMEOI watch as Skylar runs towards the trees; I let out a breath I was holding when she wasn’t dragged back out and I get a tug on my link. I open it.“We have her, Your Highness… But we can’t get to you…” “It’s okay. Just get her out of here safely.” I then return my full attention back to Archer, who presses the button on his controller again, adding a little more of the serum into my system once more. Even though I had lowered the dose that comes out with the number of times he presses the button, he is going to overload it soon and it will flood me with the small amount that is left within the device around my neck.Archer whistles again and the small army around me attacks, I dodge the first one to lunge at me and then send my fist into the jaw of the next before hitting the next one in the stomach as the first one turns around and lunges at me one more.I fig
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
