~Imogene~I take a long look at the man in front of me. He’s not a vampire that I’ve ever had dealings with before, but I’m not surprised. I heard a bit of his story, and it seems he was locked away somewhere for a while. Whatever the reason I never came across him before is irrelevant. He’s come along at the right time. “I need my magic back.”His eyes don’t waver from me, and I wish I could tell what he’s thinking right now. I’m currently magicless, thanks to that bitch high priestess. It took me many years to get the level of power I possessed, and now it’s like starting all over again. The only bright spot is that I put some of my magic away for just this type of situation. I just need some help with getting it back. “I’m no witch or warlock, so I’m a little lost as to how I can help with that.” I sigh and sit back in my chair. Maybe he’s intentionally playing dense.“Make the right connections, and you can do anything your heart desires.” He doesn’t say anything or move. “Look, I
~Tia~“Hey, beautiful.” Landon’s lips touch my cheek, and it’s a little wet. I turn to look at him and notice the sweat dripping down his face. I playfully slap his arm as I chuckle.“So gross! You’re way too sweaty to touch me.” Landon lets a small growl loose. At the same time, I feel wetness on the side of my face and neck. I jump at the uncomfortable feeling and turn to the side to see Lincoln laughing. I punch him in the shoulder.“Ow, baby. That hurt.” I roll my eyes and grab the towel out of Lincoln’s hand. I wipe my face before throwing it to Landon. I sit at Landon’s desk and eye my mates. “Don’t be mad. We’re just messing with you.”“Where’s Kian?”“Mom and Paul had him, but they are leaving him with Dad. They say they have to talk to everyone.” Lincoln and Landon wipe themselves down before sitting at their desks. The door opens, and Lynn struts in with Vonte behind her. Devonte is a bit slower coming in, and he looks extremely uncomfortable.I turn to Lynn, about to ask ab
~Mark~“Mmmmmm. You know what kissing me there does to me.” I smirk against her skin and continue my assault. “Maaaark…..fu…..that feels so good.” I reluctantly remove my mouth and push Jenna onto her back. She’s wearing my shirt to bed, and I love it when she wears my shirt to bed.I run a hand up her torso, under the shirt. I come in contact with her bare breast, and I latch on. Her skin is so soft in my hands. I knead it like it’s Play-Doh, and Jenna arches her back. I should probably let her sleep and get rest for the baby. I look down at her, writhing under me. Yeah, not happening tonight.I quickly push her shirt up and latch my mouth onto her nipple. I swirl my tongue around her peak, causing her back to arch. Her hand grabs the back of my head, and I really dig in. I move my other hand down to her nub and rub my finger around the sensitive button.Jenna is so wet, and my finger is getting drenched. My mouth is watering with anticipation; I want to taste her. I let my finger sl
~Aida~Ivan is giving out the last slew of orders so we can go and complete our agenda. I’m watching our little group, and I have to say it’s impressive. I’ve never gone against a group of vampires myself, so I can’t wait to see how crazy this is going to get.Ivan gets a call and walks away to take it. I continue to look at our little group, sizing them up. I’m beyond anxious to get going, and I wish this were the big battle we’re working toward. This is just a little skirmish to get an idea of what each pack is working with.I watch a hand tentatively go up into the air. I’m amused; it’s like I’m a teacher, and they are looking to ask a question. “Yes?”“I just want to be clear…..we AREN’T to kill anyone?” I sigh and look at the group. I look at where Ivan was standing and see that he’s moved much further. I turn back to the group, and I know I have a gleam in my eye.“The goal is to NOT kill anything this time around. We really want to intel.” There are nods throughout the group. “
~Jenna~I struggled to get out of bed. The struggle continued as I tried to shower and dress myself. I’m standing in front of the full-length mirror, and I smooth the black dress that I had plastered on my body. It’s a form-fitting dress with a pencil skirt. I sigh as I step into my black pumps and tuck some hair behind my ear.There’s no point in makeup because it isn’t going to stay on my face, not today. There’s a knock on my door before it opens. “Hey, baby girl. Are you ready?” I sigh again and clench my eyes to keep the tears in.“Can you ever really be ready for this?” My dad lets out a humorless chuckle and walks toward me.“No, you are never ready for this.” He places a hand on my lower back and guides me out of my room and the packhouse.We are laying our fallen to rest. We lost three people, and we decided to say goodbye today. The battle was a day ago, but there’s no point in waiting. We will need to coordinate with the Emerald Lack Pack because we know this isn’t the end
~Ivan~“I did it because…..I can.” Is she serious right now? Is that the reason for her causing so much chaos? Don’t get me wrong, I have no issue with life lost, even if it’s accidental. I’m not one who’s going to break for animals or be sure that I factor in any issues that could hurt others. I truly could not care. This is a cruel, cold world, and everyone is for themselves. It’s just when there’s a plan, an expressed wish, that should be honored no matter what.My hand drops from Aida’s next, but her smirk never fades. I take two steps back from her, trying to figure out what to do. On one hand, the fact that she’s so unapologetic is disturbing. She went in with a plan, and that plan was executed with no hesitation. Not just that, but she’s gleeful about it. That could be very dangerous, considering. On the other hand, I have to admit that I’m extremely turned on right now. My love is a force, and such a force is one to marvel at.My dick is growing, causing my pants to tighten on
~Tia~I lean back in my chair and sigh. Yesterday was highly emotional, but I knew it would be. Thankfully, I didn’t have to address the pack; I let Paul have that honor. Was it an honor or a burden? I have no idea; I just know that it wasn’t something I wanted to do. I slept for the rest of the day, and now we need to meet. We have to get prepared before we have another attack.The phone continues to ring as I turn the chair to the wall and look out the window. Nothing seems as bright as it was before, but I guess that’s to be expected. “H…Hello?”“Hey, Jenna.”“Tia?”“Mmmhmmm.”“I’m sorry for-”“I’m sorry about-” We both chuckle more out of necessity than humor.“Yeah,” Jenna responds and sighs.“I wanted to get you on the phone before everyone gets in here. I guess we have some news, and we need to figure out what we need to do now.”“I cleared my schedule for this meeting, so I’m ready when everyone else is.” Her voice seems like a beacon because my door opens, and people start to
~Aida~I’ve been in high spirits, and my last encounter with Ivan was amazing. He may have acted like he was upset by what happened, but I know better. It wasn’t even a hiccup in his plan, just an unimportant detour.Okay, maybe I haven’t been in high spirits all of the time. I mean, don’t get me wrong, I’m at peace with what I did. My father’s always been a warrior, and that means life can be cut short. I’m sure he didn’t expect it to be cut short by his own child, though.*Flashback*I punch and slice at people as I walk through the throng. I haven’t seen those who’ve offended me the most yet, but I know they’re out here. I recognize many of these warriors, but some are new to me. I see the royal seal, and I find it funny because even with royal warriors, they fail.I turn my head to the side, and I swear my excitement grows. I’ve laid eyes on someone I’ve very much hoped to see, and they are not too far ahead of me. I use my vampiric speed to make my way over there, ready for this
