While we bathe, Aurora and I talk about everything she went through because of Cassandra. She tells me about how she met her father, and her forced transition into a vampire so they could escape. I recount my own story for her, and her eyes, which are back to their normal mismatched colours, go wide in alarm when I reveal how the void weapons could actually injure me. She grabs my arm, inspecting the skin there. The cut from the blade has long healed, but she brushes her soft lips across it anyway and sighs. “What does this mean? Cassandra’s weapons kind of work? Do you think they could have killed you?” The last question comes out in barely a whisper, her eyes closing as though she can’t even bear the thought of it. I pull her into me, holding her close, “I don’t know. They only managed to get me once, and it did eventually heal, but…” I pause, remembering the agony. “...It was a kind of pain I’ve never experienced before, like a searing burn that spread down my arm before kind of
I stare grumpily at the diamonds hanging from my ears. Sure, they’re stunning, but at what cost? “If you take them out for longer than a couple minutes, they will heal over, so make sure you always have a pair in,” Harlow says cheerfully. I nod at her in the mirror, turning my head from side to side; they are gorgeous and the pain was minimal so I’ll get over it. There’s a knock on the closet door and I freeze as the scent of fresh blood hits me. My fangs ache painfully and Danika rears her head, throwing herself at the barricade in my mind. I’m strong enough to keep her locked away, until Heidi opens the door and I come face to face with Inez. I see the jar in her hands but it's the vein in her neck that catches my eyes, and I zero in on it, licking my dry lips, imagining her blood soaking them. Danika takes advantage of my momentary distraction and shoves me to the side; I can feel her fangs breaking through my gums, joining my newly permanent vampire fangs and the ache in them
The room springs into action, the guards that are left move forward immediately to host up Kieran’s unconscious body.“Take him to the infirmary,” Samael orders, “Make sure he’s put in the room next to Inez.” They nod once, running out with Kieran, and Samael turns to Seth, “Bring me Adelaide.” The witch with Seth opens a portal and they both step through it instantly. Samael stares down at me, his bloody fingers brushing my cheek, and I lean into him, his touch causing my heart rate to pick up. He glances up at Adrian and Dimitri and sighs, “go wait in the infirmary. If either Kieran or Inez wake up, come find us.”They both nod and speed out of the room, leaving us alone. Samael pulls me into his chest and I take a deep, unsteady breath, watching as a black portal opens in front of me and Adelaide steps out with Seth behind her. Samael straightens up, keeping one hand on my lower back and glaring at the both of them. “Seth, go arrest Viktor Whitewood, Xavier Crawley, and Killian S
I knew she was having a hard time with the bloodlust, but drinking from Inez should have sated her for at least a little while. Perhaps it’s her blood magic making it so difficult, but when she pounces on the prisoner and Danika forces herself forward, I realize it’s not that at all. I watch as Aurora shifts into Danika, her wolf form is huge, taking up most of the room. Her silky black coat ripples as she shakes out her body and her fangs sink into the throat of the prisoner.Danika is a vampire. How the fuck is that possible? Werewolves have turned into vampires before but the transformation always only affects the human side, the wolf remains the same. Danika drains the man of his blood and when she’s done his head is detached from his body. She slowly raises her gaze to mine and I’m met with two deep crimson irises, swirling with thirst. I back out into the hallway and she follows, blood dripping from her maw. I look at the guards in the vicinity, “lock the stairwell doors. Open
I wish I could have Samael’s composure. He looks so unbothered by everything. I noticed it at the council meeting too, he stayed quiet while Seth did most of the talking and he just kind of glared at everyone the whole time. Even now, he stands staring at Dimitri with his arms crossed, a slight frown on his face, but other than that he looks almost bored. He turns to face my father, “I have to go check on my spy. He was supposed to bring Isaac back, but things took a turn it seems. I will go find him, and when I return we will make a plan to get your mate back.” My dad nods, and I see the sadness in his stormy eyes. I feel bad for calling my mom by her name but I'm having a hard time seeing her as my mom right now. Samael looks at me, “do you want to come with me, or would you like to stay here with your father?”I hug my dad tightly and his embrace makes me feel small and comforted at the same time. I pull back and I think the both of us have tears in our eyes, “I’m sorry dad. I h
I hoist Isaac’s body over my shoulder and shiver under Aurora’s roaming gaze. I can feel how turned on she is and it makes it difficult to leave here without fucking her up against a tree first. I can’t imagine how overwhelming all her new senses must be. The vampire side of her being amplified by her wolf and her magic. It’s probably making the pull of the matebond stronger for her, making her desire for me burn hotter, and her thirst for blood unquenchable. I watch her breathing pick up as I stare at her, she pulls her bottom lip between her teeth and I just about lose it. I toss Isaac’s body to the ground and step over him, stalking towards Aurora, who backs up until I have her pinned against a tree, my hands gripping the bark of either side of her head. Her mismatched eyes both turn a bloody crimson and her hands grip my hips, pulling me further into her. “I’m going to fuck you, Aurora. We’re going to forget everything that’s happening, everyone that’s waiting on us, and we’re
Being a vampire is difficult to say the least. There is so much happening, so much that could go wrong, we have no idea where Cassandra is, or what exactly she’s planning. But all I can manage to think about is blood, and Samael’s cock. Mostly in that order. Danika is unable to be reasoned with. She’s like a frenzied force in my head, dying to sink her fangs into anything that moves and desperate for me to quite literally beg on my knees for Samael to fuck me again. Which is not something I’m opposed to doing but I’m not sure Samael would in front of these men. They stare up at him, terror in their eyes and their hearts rapidly pumping the blood through their veins. I can sense it. I can hear it. I can feel it. I think I could control it if I tried… it’s almost tangible. Like I could reach out and touch it. One of them, Xavier, screams and his eyes go wide as he starts coughing up blood. I realize my head is titled as I stare at him and I give it a shake, forcing myself out of my l
Aurora tugs up her pants with a scoff and stands beside me, glaring down at Isaac, “what do you know about me?”Isaac doesn’t look at her or respond, he spits at her feet, and I wrap a hand around his throat. My claws extend, piercing into his flesh and his blood spurts out, soaking my hand in its warmth. “What we are not going to do is disrespect the most powerful creature in this kingdom. You are nothing to her, Isaac. You are the dirt at her feet. She could kill you in the blink of an eye. You are insignificant and unimportant, and the only reason you are still alive is because I enjoy making you suffer, and you might still have information that could be useful to us.”I feel the tips of Aurora’s fingers trailing across the back of my neck and I can’t help the shiver that goes down my spine every time she does that. Isaac finally looks up at her and his eyes widen as she smiles at him. “What do you know about me?” She asks again, her voice low and coated with disgust. “I know Ca
I can feel my magic coursing through my veins. It’s power is consuming, and I want to let it control me. The vampire side of me is desperate to give in to its darkness, to give in to the bloodlust. It’s only Danika that keeps me from falling into it, but even she is having a hard time resisting the pull. “So no pain at all?” Samael says, his crimson eyes lighting a fire inside me. He’s covered in blood and… skin, as well as other bits of Isaac, but it just makes him look even more deadly. I shake my head and pull him down, slamming my lips against his and moaning desperately. “Fuck me, my king. Take me right now, because I’ve been dripping for you since we got here.” Samael shoves me up against the bars of the cell, ripping my pants down and forcing his cock up into my cunt. “Oh goddesses! Fuck yes, my king, you fuck me so good!” We’re both slick with blood and guts, but I find I don’t give a shit, he tugs my shirt over my head and I sink my fangs into his throat, my body convulsi
