Third Person's POV Nadja slowly released the guard's hand and wiped his face as he sat up. The elder leaned his head back against the bars and stared at the ceiling before a thought came to him. His head snapped in Roman's direction, and he quickly crawled across his cell and toward him. “Roman! I would never ask this of you, but it'll help us get out of here. Let me feed from you. If I drink enough blood, I'll be able to teleport us out of here and take you back to the coven,” Nadja said, hoping Roman had enough blood in him after eating the large meal earlier. Roman's eyes widened, and he gasped as he leaned away from the bars. “I would never take it from you without your permission. It's okay if you don't want to; you can say no. But if you say yes, and it's enough to give me my powers, which I believe it will be, I can have us out of here in 5 minutes. We'll both be free, Roman! They'll never hurt you again,” Roman looked toward the door before nodding and moving toward the ba
Third Person's POV Luke felt incredibly awkward with this man who claimed they were mates, sleeping on the couch in his parents' living room. Every time he was home, he couldn't escape his intense gaze. It caused his heart to palpitate and butterflies to dance in his stomach. Every time he sees the man, he wants to climb in his lap and bury his face and his neck… It was a strange feeling, and he didn't like it.Once he was certain Benjamin was in the bathroom, Luke snuck out of his room. He took that opportunity and sprinted down the hall before quickly leaving the apartment. The Omega didn't stop until he was banging on his best friend's door. Rose smiled as she opened the door and stepped back, allowing the Omega to burst inside their apartment. It's become a habit of Luke's for the past two weeks.Luke burst into Joey's room and shrieked before backing out and closing the door behind him. Rose looked down the hall in concern before she started giggling when she realized what happ
Third Person's POVRose gasped when the front door opened, and she saw her son in tears. “Joey! What's wrong, baby?” Rose asked as she jumped to her feet and ran to her son. She immediately noticed the way he was holding his right arm. As Luke explained what happened, Rose moved Joey's left hand away and gasped when she saw the large ugly bruise on his wrist. An angry growl vibrated behind Rose when Nick saw the large bruise on his son's arm. “That idiot thought he was in there trying to watch them. I don't know how he could be so stupid and thick-headed! He knows Joey is afraid of Alphas!” Luke said.Rose looked up when Nick stormed out the front door. She looked at Luke, whose eyes were wide. The Omega was tempted to follow Nick. He wouldn't mind watching someone put that big idiot in check, but he knew his best friend needed him, so he stayed. “Come on, let's get some ice on this,” Rose said as she guided her son to the couch. She quickly disappeared into the kitchen, grabbing i
Third Person's POV Benjamin couldn't get over how night and day Luke was with him now. The Omega that once ran from him now can't keep his hands off him.Luke giggled as he straddled Benjamin's lap on the couch. His right arm wrapped around his mate's neck, and his left hand tangled his fingers in his hair while he tasted his mate's kiss. He couldn't get enough of Benjamin's magical kiss. His tongue felt like heaven wrapped around his. He loved the way Benjamin's tongue searched his mouth and the way his hands caressed his body. The two lovebirds were so lost in each other they didn't hear footsteps walking down the hall. Noah came to a halt, stopping his mate in his tracks, when he saw his son making out with his mate on the couch. He was surprised he wasn't angry and even more surprised by how happy he was. He supposes maybe it's because, for the last two weeks, everyone has witnessed Luke's desperate attempts to avoid Benjamin. “He finally feels the bond,” Michael said through t
Third Person's POV Lexon carefully watches Ezra as he uses his abilities, looking for flaws in his execution and fighting ability. The Elder is impressed with his fighting skills. He was impressed with his abilities until just a few moments ago. Ezra almost seems confused and frustrated as he rapidly switches between abilities. He growls in frustration as the swarm of enemies begins to overpower him. He growls again as he slaps his hand against the light switch and grabs the forehead of the closest vampire, not only electrocuting the one he's holding but the ones touching that vampire. His focus intensifies, and the lights flicker as he draws more power from the light switch. He focuses on the electrical current; Evelyn jumps and covers her head as the light bulbs above begin bursting.When Ezra lets go of the light switch, the bodies of all five enemies fall to the floor. “What happened there?” Lexon asked as he focused on the last vampire and watched as he ripped his own heart ou
Third Person's POV Tate enjoys the warmth of her body pressed against him. Their legs tangled, her head resting on his chest as her fingers delicately trail along his body. It's a soothing sensation, but he can't wait for the day he can feel tingles under those fingertips when she touches him. “It's getting closer… are you afraid?”“No,” Tate replied.“I am,” She said quietly, and he kissed her head. “Don't be scared,”“How can you be so certain?”“Because I love you! Because I think about you all day long. From the moment I wake up until the moment I go to sleep,” Tate said, but the very next moment, he was surprised when his mind drifted to those blue eyes and the adorable way he tilted his head. He could almost hear the sound of his giggle, and his lips tugged up.“What are you smiling about?” Chloe asked as she rested her chin on her hand. “Nothing, just a thought from earlier. Stop worrying your pretty little head. We're mates. We wouldn't feel this strongly for each other if
Third Person's POV Ezra sat reclined in the snuggle chair with his Dad. Only these days, instead of being wrapped up in his dad's arms, his dad is wrapped up in his. Many books lie in Ezra's lap, ones Julian hasn't read yet. The one he's currently reading is held in his hand. As Julian flips the page, Ezra glances down, and his lips tugged up at an old book his dad tried to sneak into his pile of books to read: Good Night Moon. The book is old and raggedy, but his dad still loves it. “Oh, I love this part!” Julian exclaimed excitedly as he nuzzled in against Ezra. The soon-to-be vampire King smiled as he wrapped his arms tighter around his Dad. He rested his head atop his dad's as Julian continued reading. Ezra closed his eyes and enjoyed their snuggle session as he listened to his dad read. Reid paused as he entered the room, and his heart swelled at seeing his mate snuggling with their son. Each time he witnessed it, he cherished it, afraid it might be the last. He never knew wh
Third Person's POV Everyone spun around, taking a fighting stance, but relaxed at the sight of Vincent. “Jesus!...For fuck sakes!” Vincent whisper-yelled as he grabbed the wall with one hand and held his right hand over his heart, trying to collect himself.Vincent turned, giving Lexon a look that let him know he wasn't happy that he scared him half to death, before looking at the two kings. “Fucking A! It's been a long time since I've seen you guys! You little Rugrats grew up into young men!” Vincent said as he eyed the two young men he hadn't seen in nine years. Ezra stiffened and wanted to crawl out of his skin when the stupid vampire pulled him into a hug and nearly squeezed the life out of him. “Damn, look at you! You're almost a king! Shit, buddy!” Vincent said as he slapped the King's back. Ezra's body jerked, and his eyes widened when Vincent slapped his back a little too hard for his liking. “Anyway,” Vincent said as he pointed at Grayson. Grayson raised an eyebrow and
