~Diana’s Point of View~“Just fucking end me already,” I hissed through my clenched teeth.I was bound at the wrists and ankles with silver, completely unable to move. Three witches were attached to my leg, drinking my blood as my maker stood by watching with great satisfaction.Vampires never freely gave their blood to a human unless the human’s life was in danger and they were someone in our personal circle. We didn’t just randomly help wounded humans since basic ones certainly didn't know what our blood could do.For a healthy human to take a large dose of vampire blood and not for the purposes of being turned, was akin to madness. They would have abnormal strength and feel invincible … a bad combination. This usually led the person to think they were far more capable of doing something than they could actually do ... and usually they either killed a lot of people or created an incitement.So long ago, Godfrey and I had ended Ketet, at least we were positive that we had. The last ti
~Sunny’s Point of View~I woke up feeling so refreshed, like I’d been asleep for days. I stretched and rolled to look at the big empty bed next to me, letting out a huge sigh. I quickly grabbed my phone, afraid that I had in fact been asleep for days, but to my surprise it had only been two hours. I heard voices in the hallway and before I could even try to decipher them, there was a knock at the door. I looked down at myself to make sure I was dressed okay, I hadn’t even bothered to notice. I still had on the sundress I had been wearing earlier, good. I ran to the door and was greeted with a smile from warlock Ben.“Evening Sunny, you asked to see me,” he said.If I were a single she-wolf I would be all over this guy. Well hell every woman with a pulse and most men who could admit admiring a true sex god in their prescence would be on their knees for him. He had jet black loose curly hair that came just around his face and ears, a perfectly sculpted strong jaw line, bright white stra
~Quinn’s Point of View~I’d let Ben and Sunny relay the plan to the rest of the council and some others, and they all thought it was insane, just as I had. But they all also valued keeping their heads on their shoulders. There’s no bigger motivation than self-preservation.I found myself in the Mamanuca Islands in Fiji and I immediately knew I was in the right place. I had to play this right, I couldn’t just come right out and show all my cards. Not to say that I was nervous, it’s not every day you have to talk to a devil, but at least it wasn’t the devil.I strolled up to a tourist tiki bar and put my hat down on the bar. There were human women everywhere, barely covered with thin scraps of fabric, and I couldn’t even enjoy it. I turned to the man on the stool next to me, who was puffing on a rather nasty smelling cigar.“I’d have taken you for a Vegas man, but maybe Sin City would make you too much of a cliche,” I said, waving for the bartender.He laughed and removed his hat as well
~Diana’s Point of View~I had no concept of time anymore, no understanding of anything going on outside this room. I thought so much about my Godfrey, pleading to something in the universe to cure him so he could save me. That we would end our maker once and for all. I was in and out of consciousness and barely able to hold my shit together. I had to, this couldn’t be it, this WON’T be it. I whined thinking I still had the promise to see Grand Flauntina, my dream vacation ever since its inception.Godfrey and I had been so torn on killing Ketet all those moons ago. For children to kill their maker was completely out of the question, it was simply never done. Well those lucky ass vampires didn’t have a maker straight from hell, responsible for the deaths of hundreds of thousands of innocents during her existence. It had to be done, and it had to be us that did it.I had a weird idea that maybe a witch had some of her ashes, and brought her back to life? Maybe, that seemed … possible? F
~Diana's Point of View~“Who’s to say they were her ashes, it could have been a spell or maybe somehow enough of her wasn’t burned,” Grayson said.“There’s no spell that could bring a vampire back from ash,” Ben said, matter of fact.Ooohh la la look at him, large and in charge. Damn I’d kill to roll around in the hay and suck on his-“Enough,” Dina said, moving to the center of the room.Oh, always the buzzkill, that one. Angry granny! I slouched back against the couch, ready for her lecture.“We went from having a pissed off witch to having two very pissed off things that are beyond power hungry and hate all of us,” Dina said.“We have to focus on Godfrey, we can’t beat them without him,” I said, plainly. My eyes went to Sunny, one of the few humans in the room, and she smiled at me. I smiled back, yes … I could pretend to be polite when I needed to. Human manners!“We have to come up with a plan for trying, without him,” Quinn said, matter of fact.I scoffed loudly.“Well you’re th
~Tyson’s Point of View~Why the hell did it seem like Diana was staring at me, staring into me? Fuck! All I need is a damn vamp staking a claim on me. Godfrey’s sister no less?! What a mess.I had guard duty after the meeting and my head was all over the damn place. I couldn’t focus. It was like my dick took on more of a mind of its own than ever before. My wolf was furious, demanding we stay away from her.I made it through the time with Susie without giving in, and that was damn impossible. Diana had a hot as hell body, and she was a vamp that could most definitely rock my world. Shit, there’d be no way I could turn that down. Was she just toying with me though? Of course she was, idiot!*Two meetings scheduled, everyone must attend one of them. 10am this morning or 10pm tonight, courtroom,* Shane said, over mind-link.Good, hopefully they have a plan together, hopefully they know what they’re doing. I had to attend the night time meeting since I was still at work during the morning
~Sunny’s Point of View~My mom had fought like hell to come to the island, but dad made her stay home with Meadow. I was glad for it, she’d be a distraction.I slept awful in the stupid tent, listening to Hunter snore … I mean it was on the lighter side but still! I was used to sleeping next to a man that didn’t breathe and made no noise. Oh hell, who was I kidding? I had only been sleeping next to pillows now for so long.It was just wearing on me, I was cranky and sexually frustrated beyond belief. There was so much uncertainty around tonight, around Godfrey’s health. I was not really included in any of the planning and some of it seemed pretty farfetched. I really didn’t get how they were going to summon Fiona’s spirit here, or this Ketet … I mean what if they just didn’t come? How could Ben compel them? I didn’t understand much about witches and Godfrey never made it a point to teach me. The day dragged on forever and I ended up spending most of it in the tent, feeling completely
~Tyson’s Point of View~ After the wave of baby vamps we knew it was working, well at least the Ketet end of things. She knew we were here and she was testing us. I was in my wolf form, and per Hunter’s orders I was not to engage in or join the fight unless it directly affected Sunny. I was not allowed to get distracted and leave her out of my line of sight.Axel however, was a wolf born to fight. Son of an Alpha … he didn’t give a fuck about Hunter’s rules, he was ready for a battle. He'd pledged to the Shadows just as I had, they were our pack to defend. That meant Sunny too.Axel was still pissed he’d allowed the witch that cursed Godfrey to do so, and that he hadn’t gotten to her faster.One of the newer Shadow witches that was still in training teleported on and off between headquarters to check on them and give them updates since we were too far for mind-linking. She kept re-appearing and disappearing near me and it was driving me nuts. Axel would growl at her everytime she reapp
