2024-12-09 16:00:58They drove all night until the sun rose once more. “Why don’t we share a room,” Bianca suggested to him, fully fanged. James took a small step backward, and to his surprise and relief, Lily stepped forward, giving Bianca a pointed look.
“Bianca, it’s rude to feed off of your friends. Find your fix somewhere else,” she told the vampire, who pouted with disappointment.
“Oh, I suppose you are correct, Lily. How about you join me?” She asked.
“Bianca, what did I tell you?” the other vampire warned, and she pouted even more.
“But it’s no fun by myself! We’ll be more careful this time,” she pleaded. This time? What the hell she meant by this time? James wondered, noticing Lily was looking guilt

Lily sat in the chair chewing her thumbnail and her leg bouncing nervously. James had gone to talk to Chris. Why did Xavier take Lacy? She wondered if Xavier had struck out, angry that they were going after him. With a growl of frustration, she ran her hands through her dark hair. The only thing she wanted to do was stop people from getting hurt, but it no matter what she did, that was what happened.First, Greg gets kidnapped and changed because of her stubbornness. James got caught in a silver net and suffered horrible burns because she was too stupid to look at things as they were. She got Kyle killed because she didn’t listen. The guy the other night nearly died because she wasn’t strong enough, and now Lacy was gone because she insisted on acting.Her phone rang, and she picked up the phone without looking at the number. “What’s the

“What opportunity?” Lily asked, confused, earning another slap. Her vision blurred, and she shook her head as Lacy barked out another bitter laugh.“God, you’re so damn stupid, I don’t see what anyone ever saw in you! Did you ever stop to wonder why Xavier could kidnap James, you, and Greg, but some omega teen wolf escaped or how he could change you into a hybrid but ‘accidentally’ killed two teens with some pills?” Lacy asked.Lily’s head shot up and looked at the blonde in horror. “You mean?” Lily started, but couldn’t bring herself to finish it.“Yes, it all was a setup to get James to come back to Xavier and to me! I was supposed to be the one Xavier changed, not you! He promised! Xavier promised he would change me, but you had to come

“Please,” Lacy squeaked. “Please don’t drain me!” She sobbed.“Seriously, you don’t know me at all,” she spat at Lacy. “Or you would know I would never attack anyone like that, especially you. I thought we were friends, more than that I thought we were sisters,” Lily told her. “Why couldn’t you just have talked to me, Lacy? Why would you rather destroy me than talk to me,” Lily pleaded, traitorous tears falling down her face.Lacy’s face softened a little, but hardened. “Because you don’t care about anyone but yourself Lily, it’s always about you. Poor little Lily: mistreated and abandoned! Our own little Oliver Twist! You’ve got everyone falling for you! Kyle wanted you! Xavier couldn’t stop talking about how perfect you are and how if he ever had

A little disappointed that Lily still didn’t want to be intimate with him, James buried his face in her hair, breathing in her scent and feeling his muscles relax almost instantly. His life had changed completely since that night in the woods, and now he couldn’t imagine life without her. He no longer suffered nightmares about his time with Xavier. When he was with her, a calmness and relaxation came over him he’d never known in his life.Even the beast was content and at peace when Lily was around, so much so that James almost felt like a normal werewolf. She was the type of woman James always wanted in his life. Lily was as passionate about life as she was about making love. She was feisty and witty, always keeping him on his toes. Lily was incredible in her manner to continue being an overall good person, a person who knew how to smile and enjoy life, no matter what life threw at her.

Lacy tried several times to draw his attention or tried to argue with him about being his mate, but he only ignored her until the vampires and Chris returned to the room. Bianca plopped down on one bed. “So what’s the game plan, boys?” She asked, patting the bed for Chris to sit with her. His gaze passed over the redhead and Lacy several times, then sat down beside the vampire.“I say we kill her,” Dorin stated, “but not before we give her the same kindness she gave the hybrid!” Chris paled, looking upset, but said nothing, and Lacy scoffed with a look of disbelief on her face.“If we did that, we’d be no better off than she is. I say we take her to her father,” James suggested, and Lacy rolled her eyes with a look of disgust.“I know you boys aren&rs

“You got the mess cleaned up? The last thing we need is the maid finding the body,” Dorin asked with a flat tone.“For the most part, I cleaned up the blood, but sexy here wouldn’t let me dispose of the body. So it’s wrapped in the shower curtain in the bathroom,” Bianca replied, as if it wasn’t the first body she had to dispose of.“You can’t just dump her in a ditch,” Chris snapped at them. “Tell them, James! They can’t just toss her away like a piece of trash,” he demanded.“Why not?” Dorin asked, looking curious. “That’s what she would have done to you,” he added, and Chris growled at him.“That doesn’t matter, Dorin,” James jumped in. “

It had been three days since Bianca had killed Lacy. Lily refused to forgive Bianca for what she had done. She didn’t care if the vampire didn’t understand why she was so angry. It had been three days, and Lily still wanted to shove a stake through the red head’s chest as far as it would go. There had been a chance that Lacy was under the influence of something Xavier had done, but thanks to that blood hungry leech they’d never known.Lily’s thoughts went out to Chris. He no longer was the cocky, flirty, and funny guy she had come to love as a brother. She hated to see him go without her; it made the wound in her heart grow even more. As hard as that was, it was nothing compared to the phone call she had to make to Greg and Tony. James had offered, but Lily wanted to do it herself. It was her sister, after all.At first, Tony didn&

Lily glared at him when she stood in front of him.“What is your name?” he demanded.“Lily,” she snapped once more, incapable of not obeying him. “What’s yours? Alpha Jerk Off with his pack of merry men,” she snapped in defiance, furious he was controlling her. His dark-haired goon snarled at her and started toward her, but the alpha held up his hand to stop him.“Yeah, I know one day my big mouth is going to get me into trouble,” Lily said, crossing her arms before he could say it. The alpha kept his stoic face mask, looking neither angry nor bothered by her, which made her, even more, irritated.“Now what are you doing in my territory Lily?” he commanded. Lily glared at him and huffed.

“Now that we’re all introduced, won’t you please follow me,” The Queen offered, walking down a large hallway. Everyone followed Queen Hazar into a smaller room, larger than any room Andrew had in his house, though.There were bookcases and statues lining the walls with old paintings on the walls. Plush sofas and chairs littered the room with an enormous fireplace that housed an equally large fire on the wall in front of them. Large rugs lay on the floor with intricate designs that almost made Lily regret stepping on them.The snooty boy from earlier rushed up with a tray of extravagant crystal wine glasses filled with a variety of liquids. Everyone took a glass, and the queen turned to Lily. “Do you drink Lily?” She asked and indicated to the glass was full of blood. She wondered how the queen knew her name since it seemed ev

Lily drummed her fingers against the door of the car. They had been driving for an hour and she was bored. Bored and frustrated, she could be doing something so much more important than going to see some referee organization for the supernatural. Dorin turned to the left down a wide little street that went into the woods and after driving ten more minutes, Lily tensed as they come to a large black gate that crossed the street with four bulky men.Dorin got out of the car, speaking to one of them, looking perfectly friendly. She also noticed the dirty looks the men threw her way. She leaned against the headrest and frowned. “My list of fans just keeps growing,” she thought bitterly. The urge to hit something was growing.Dorin returned to the car, and they drove past the gate and she shot the men on her side with nasty looks. She huffed, crossing her

“You can’t be suggesting what I think you are suggesting, James,” Nick said. “I’ve known her my whole life and I know she would do anything for that boy of hers, anything!”“Yes, that is what I am worried about; a woman loses her mate and nearly her son. If I was her, I would do anything to protect him, anything and everything possible,” He continued and Nick gave him a hard look.“She wouldn’t,” Nick started, but looked towards the closed door with doubt written all over his face.“Two years ago, she lost her mate. Now Xavier kidnapped her, and she is hesitant to enter the forest where we are sure he is! We have explained that he is under significant risk of being turned into a hybrid and she is arguing to wait until the morning to start the se

“If I lose it like all other hybrids, then the vampires are here to take me out,” Lily explained with a matter-of-fact tone and Nick eyed her with obvious surprise. Nick gave the vampires a polite but cool greeting.“This is Derek, Mike, Chase, and Bonnie. All of them have their children hostage,” Nick stated, then introduced Lily and James to his group. As usual, they all took a step back when they heard James’ names and asked if he was the James Lacrosse.“It’s not fair,” Lily demanded. “How come you get the ‘The James Lacrosse’ treatment and I only get the dirty hybrid? I’m so much cooler than you,” she complained, her hands on her hips.“Because I’ve been around longer, and I’m more badass than you are,” he repl

James wasn’t sure how long they had stood there holding onto each other, waiting for their racing heartbeats to slow. He nuzzled into Lily’s neck and breathed in her scent, letting it wash over him. This woman and how she made him feel were truly astounding. He thought last time was good, but this had been so much better. “James, let me get up,” she told him, attempting to shrug his arms off of her, but he only pulled her closer.He smiled as she growled with obvious frustration and attempted to pry off his arms. In this little bathroom, there was no Xavier, no vampires, no hybrid business, just them, and he wasn’t ready to let go of that yet. He kissed her neck, ignoring her. “Seriously, James, we have more important things to deal with than your libido,” she snapped at him and he groaned in complaint.“No one wi

One of his hands snuck under her shirt while the other wrapped around her waist. When the kiss ended, Lily felt lightheaded and breathless. James kissed along her jaw until reaching her ear, where he nipped the soft skin of her ear. She bit her lip, trying to suppress a moan that threatened to escape. The last thing he needed was more encouragement, she thought as James slowly trailed searing kisses down her neck.“James,” she said breathlessly, intending to say something more, but she forgot what she was going to say. He growled against her neck, making her shiver.“I love the way you say my name,” he told her huskily as he pushed up her shirt, removing it. He tossed it aside and continued to lay ardent kisses where he left off. James nipped the bite mark on her shoulder and she gasped at the immense pleasure it caused. Her body quickly heated, and the beast h

The alpha gave her a pointed look, and Lily sighed. “Okay, okay.” She felt glad to talk to someone about it, even if it was Alpha Nosey. “Soon after I changed to this, the local vampire king said if I made any mistakes and lost control, he would issue my extermination, which obviously had me feeling like crap. James showed up in my moment of weakness, saying just the things I needed to hear and, well, one thing led to another,” she explained.“He thinks it meant something more than what it was; a bite mark doesn’t make me his mate no matter what he says. Especially when, in all honestly, if any man showed up saying those things, I would have done the same,” she finished, feeling a little slutty.“Actually, bite mark is the mark of a mate,” Nick told her.“I

Nick started to answer James, but Lily cut him off. She was going to extract some payback.“He found me in the woods,” Lily told him with a nasty smile and gave James a pointed look, making James growl even louder. “It was really fun. He amazed me by the things he could do to me,” she shot, noticing Nick was giving her a confused look.“Stay away from her, she’s mine!” James growled at Nick, who started growling back at him.“Are you sure because she told me she didn’t have a mate,” Nick growled back and James started towards him.“Oh God, this is so easy it’s not even any fun,” Lily complained as she stepped between the two. “You seriously need to learn how to detect sarcasm and learn what play on words is James,” she told James as she rolled her eyes.

“Lily, what a pleasant surprise! How have you been, my dear?” Xavier replied.“So what she tells me about you is true then, Richard?” the sheriff asked, looking angry, but Xavier ignored him getting up to face Lily.“You look wonderful Lily. How’s the change been for you? Have you been able to maintain control over your beasts and how much blood intake do you need?” He asked quickly, smiling as if he was meeting a long-lost friend. She growled and pulled the wrapped up dagger she had stuck in her jeans, pulling off the cloth and pointing at him.“You bastard, I should kill you right now. Stab you right in the chest like you did Kyle,” she growled at him.“Put that down,” the sheriff demanded, and Lily tried to fight it but stiffly did what he told her to do and Xavier wa
