~Sebastian’s Point of View~

I truly didn’t know what the fuck anything was anymore. Was up really down? What does anything really mean?

My brain was too wired to do anything but go a million miles a minute, and I felt close to a short circuit. I'd just witnessed what seemed like the spirit of a human being leave his body and go into another. But as a warlock I knew it was more than a spirit, it was his essence, his magic.

I held my brother, my best friend and my leader… as the younger version of himself lay dead across his lap. Godfrey had to leave me, to help in the fight which seemed to be dying down.

“Any word on Sofia,” one of the guardians asked.

I finally lifted my head from Ben’s shoulder, his limp body not moving in the slightest.

“I haven’t a clue,” I said, nearly in a whisper. He nodded and disappeared.

If Ben dies, I die. In theory I know I should take over, become the leader our people will need. But I can’t. I’m a warrior, not a bureaucrat, not a politician. Ben i

    ~Meadow’s Point of View~ *How can nobody know anything,* Coral shouted. Wincing, I tried to sit up. There was no chance I could get off this damn floating boat unless a witch let me off. I wasn’t at all confident I could even walk too far anyhow, but for him I would try. For him, I would crawl miles if I had to. I had to know, I had to see him. At this point I literally had no clue if Ben was alive or dead. If Little Ben was alive or dead. Coral was confident one or both was alive, that our bond still existed, but the pain that paralyzed and wrecked my body told me otherwise. *River please… please find out something for me. Anything,* I begged. My brothers had left maybe two hours ago, helping to evacuate the island. I wasn’t sure what that meant either. Was it all over? *I’ll see what I can do,* he said, and I internally rolled my eyes. Liar. “You need to keep up your strength,” mom said, trying to get me to sip on some ginger ale. I waved her off. My mate was potentially d

    ~Sunny’s Point of View~ Ohh, I hate when I wake too early!! Sometimes my mind is ready to go but my body doesn’t understand that. I’m still far too young to even remotely be free in the day as my Godfrey can do, but that doesn’t keep my mind from trying. I lay awake, under the floorboards of an old cabin. Even though I couldn’t even open my eyes or really yet move my body, my senses were on full alert. Meadow is here. Ben is here. Both are alive. Ben … nearly not so much. Huh. Not good. What is that god awful fucking smell? Nearly like death mixed with some kind of .. star anise? Tarragon? Oh I missed all the tastes of my mom’s garden. The smells just aren’t quite the same now that I can't taste them too. Some nights she has a late dinner and invites me over to help her cook. Being in the kitchen with her, wearing an apron and getting messy, just makes it feel like old times. But the cuisine unfortunately always has to be vegetarian, I can’t stomach the stench of cooking animal

    ~Meadow’s Point of View~ The heat grew more and more unbearable as the night went on, I just continued to fight Coral. Now wasn’t the time to shift, it wasn’t the time for her to be in this room. She couldn’t do any good. Maya and Katrina were able to make a half mile perimeter around the cabin to get rid of any shifters who might try and approach but most went back to the Shadow’s headquarters since they were just stressing out their animal half. I’d never felt more helpless and more pathetic in my life. If there was something to stop the never ending pain, the horribly slow death that my mate was likely experiencing I just prayed it happened soon. One way, or another. A shuffle outside startled me as the cabin door opened, revealing Sebastian. Coral stirred, not wanting any visitors near our mate, but he wasn’t exactly just anyone. He was one of the last people I could flip out on or send away. “Sorry if having Sunny in here surprised you, I had blocked her scent and set it to

    ~Ben’s Point of View~ I was certain I’d missed a hell of a lot while I was knocked out, but there was no time for trips down memory lane. No time to address the pain that still wracked my body. The reek of the venom that was still radiating from my pores. The fact that my mate smells of pure arousal, and was laying on top of me in her panties with my blood on her hands. Definitely need more of an explaination on that. Everyone is depending on me, I have to do this. It has to work. I briefly said a prayer to the Goddess that we often ask her to pass on to through our ancestors. To draw on their power when we need it. Then I began the spell as I recalled it, hoping like hell it worked. Katrina and Cleo came to either side of me, and we locked arms. Sebastian should be here, even Athena’s strength would be good. But no time now. Just as I had that thought Georgia appeared in front of me and got between Katrina and I. Her scent immediately calmed me, it was what helped my younger self

    ~Meadow’s Point of View~ “She must die, she’s lied to us all for decades. She’s kept you from Georgia, and Little Ben was just…” Sebastian trailed off. Coral shivered, remembering our brief time with the boy. He was so hopeful, curious. Yet he knew his days were numbered, how depressing. There was too much having us all on edge, especially since we were waiting for word about my father. Clearly I didn’t have the same attachment to Athena as everyone else, as her own son would. But if this was how he felt about it… Our eyes darted to Ben. “Fifty years of banishment, then we reconsider. Give her the same courtesy she gave to me,” he finally said. Numerous others murmured in agreement. “On the matter of Georgia I’m not as easily able to decide. We’re going to give her a chance to prove herself. I believe we define ourselves on the decisions we make and while some … have to be made in the blink of an eye, they can still very much have very real consequences. Georgia has lost, she ha

    ~Ben’s Point of View~ It was obvious my little love wasn’t yet capable or able to express herself in words when it came to sex, but her body told a different story. The fact that Meadow was still so shy, so bashful could not have possibly been a bigger turn on. If I could get her to the point where she talked dirty to me, I’d be coming in my pants just by her words. All the women in my life had always been so daring, so sure of themselves. Her sweet innocence, her timid nature and her untouched body was all too much. I felt as though I had split personalities … on the one hand I wanted to be her fierce protector, the macho male who puffs out his chest and kills a spider in the bathroom just to be her hero. Then fuck her relentlessly to further stake my claim and beat my chest. On the other hand, I wanted to sing the songs of love and make sweet love to her for hours on end. I’d serenade her in Greek, as the words of love just sounded better than in English… I’d make her dinner and t

    ~Meadow’s Point of View~ *Are you happy now,* I whined, scolding Coral. She didn’t answer, but instead played like she was asleep. Jerk! This was now the third night I’d been in the mountains with my mate, and while I’d felt the heat mostly subside a few hours ago we still couldn’t keep our hands off each other. I was beyond exhausted and not at all sure my legs would work. “And that position was called the hill but since I can levitate us I can actually hit you from underneath with a bit of acrobatics,” Ben said, running his fingers over my butt. I laid breathless, my head in a pillow, totally spent. I just wanted to sleep for a couple days, how the hell did he have this kind of stamina?? I mean he practically died just a few days ago! *Males always make an effort when it comes to their release,* Coral said, yawning. I had no doubt that was the absolute truth. When I had said I wanted to spend time in the coven’s library learning, I hadn’t realized I already had my own personal

    ~Ben’s Point of View~ My heart swelled as I watched Daisy doting on Ash. Since their mating bond had been broken, they re-mated and apparently all that entailed. They were both like young teenagers in love all over again, and it was a sight to behold. I couldn’t wait to bring Meadow to see. They had been left alone for a couple of days, much like my little love and I. But now guests and well wishers poured in from all over the place. I could tell he was grateful and overwhelmed but the relief on everyone’s faces seemed to rejuvenate him. Shane and Godfrey had brought him up to speed on all that transpired and he kept insisting he was to blame in some fashion for not having a security detail and allowing himself to be caught. It was all we could do to reassure him that we were all to blame. I felt I was more so than anyone. Apparently this attack had been decades in the making. Ash was just an innocent bystander, but as not only a Shadow but also a councilor he knew the risks. Doe

  • The Triplet Warriors and Their Pup Mate(Shadow Warrior Series)   Epilogue - Part Two

    Ben and I had talked about doing an actual ceremony, for him it was an important thing. Tradition. He assured me ours would be completely different from anything he’d done before, that the vows he made with other women were somewhat superficial. More of a just a promise they could join his family and that he was willing to have a child with them. More like a guarantee he’d get to sleep with them on demand. I still struggled with that sometimes. How do I just walk around knowing that all these women had shared something so special and intimate with MY mate? It wasn’t like they were one night stands. I knew it would get better, the more distance I could put between them and him, but it still tugged at my self esteem. It was even harder trying to help care for Dorothy and Calista’s children, especially since even now they still asked for their moms. Sometimes they cried out for them at night. A few times we both slept in their rooms with them. Dorothy was banished for five years, then

    ~Meadow’s Point of View~ “Don’t you just feel like a cow sometimes,” I muttered, staring down at my adorable twin pups that seemed to drink me dry each time they nursed. They were so cute when they weren’t screaming. When they weren’t crapping their pants. When they were just … motionless. *My beautiful babies,* Coral cooed. “Yeah, but it's such an incredible bond,” Lilly said, as I turned to cut my eyes at her. She was four months pregnant with their sixth child and THANKFULLY it was only one baby this time. I thought they were all insane. I nearly said, ditch the crap woman, I’m a freaking milk cow, a spit up rag and yesterday Reed whizzed in my face while I was bathing him! “It gets easier, they’re only six weeks old,” Lilly said, running her finger over Hazel’s cheek. That’s what they ALL keep saying. “It gets easier.” Ah huh. *We have been getting more sleep lately,* Coral protested. Yeah right, like SHE ever gets up. Really, I had no right to complain, since I had mo

  • The Triplet Warriors and Their Pup Mate(Shadow Warrior Series)   52 - We Are The Fight

    ~Ben’s Point of View~ I barely had to wait another minute for several vampires to try swarming in. Oftentimes there are some creatures that will take on a not so common alliance for the sake of a power grab. I knew in my bones that’s all this was, unless this sister had taken one as a mate. While you’d expect Godfrey to perhaps have reservations about killing his own kind, he absolutely didn’t. As a councilor, he took that shit pretty seriously. If they wanted to fuck around and be stupid, test the waters well, that was on them. I stood still watching as numerous Shadow vampires, witches and fairies seemed to descend from nowhere, and I also recognized two of Godfrey’s children. He likely called them through their bond, but I was pleased for the support. I bounced around, throwing some fireballs from my fingertips and even conjuring up some various weapons such as shurikens or ninja stars, which were one of Godfrey’s favorite things. Only it was hard for him to touch silver unless
