“Babe, please,” Ami met him halfway back to Wynn’s room. Wynn almost sped past her.“Where the fuck is he?” Wynn spat, furious. “You told him that you have a mate now?” Wynn yelled at her. Wynn could feel her fear.Ami found herself fearing Wynn and flinched at his yelling.“I am sorry,” Wynn said, taking her by her shoulders. “You still have feelings for him?”“I, I don’t,” Ami stutter.“I felt it!” Wynn shouted again, feeling she was lying to him.“Hey! Let her go,” Eero shouted, running towards them.“No, please. The both of you, walk away,” Ami pleaded in a soft voice, but neither one of them listened to her. Ami looked on as Wynn sped over to Eero and was about to punch him when out of nowhere prince Deacon jumped in between them shifting into his wolf form, making Wynn crash into him, sending the both of them sliding across the floor and stopping against Eero.“Get out of my way!” Wynn growled.‘Are you nuts? He could kill you,’ Deacon mind linked Wynn.Eero stepped away from th
“Mom?” Ami questioned when she opened the bedroom door and found her mother there.“Where is Wynn?” Queen Amirah questioned, walking into the room.“In the shower,” Ami frowned. “Why?”“You two have to claim each other today,” Queen Amirah urged.“What? Why? What is going on?” Ami questioned. “Please tell me this is not because of Eero?”“It is. I just,..” Queen Amirah word but got interrupted.“Why does everyone think I will just cast Wynn aside the moment Eero steps back into my life?” Ami spat. “Let’s go talk some place else,” Ami said and made her way for the door.“Fine,” Queen Amirah said and followed her.After walking a few steps, they entered the lycan throne room, finding it empty.“Wynn is my fated mate, and I plan to claim him according to our traditions,” Ami said, the first to speak again.“Why wait? Traditions are so old-fashioned,” Queen Amirah said.“Oh really? Since when?” Ami chuckled in disbelief. “Mom, I am sticking with Wynn. Besides, I am pregnant,” Ami said, sm
Eero woke up after Queen Amirah dropped him, flying over the castle. Eero immediately knew where he was. Queen Amirah dropped him in the tower that was not visible to the naked eye from outside. Eero stood up and could hardly believe that he didn’t break any bones. Eero walked over to the door and banged on it. “Hey! Anyone out there?!” he shouted, even though he knew that no one will hear him. ‘Does she plan to leave me here to die?’ he thought and walked back to where he fell in. Eero looked up, feeling hopeless. After day three, Eero accepted that Queen Amirah was leaving him for dead. It took him another three days to decide that he had to fight for his life and that no one was coming for him. Eero started with the sheets that were on the bed and tore them into strands before knotting them together, forming a rope. He took both of his shoes and tied them to the edge. Eero knew that unless he had a hook to put to the end of the rope that could hook to the top of the tower, he won
Eero woke up in an unfamiliar room but knew he was in the higher council as he recognized the wallpaper. He tried to sit up, but felt weak.“Just relax,” he heard Stella’s familiar voice.“What are you doing here?” Eero spat and tried to sit up again. He tried to get off the bed but the IVs he was hooked to jerked back his arm.“You need fluids. I saved you!” Stella forced him to the bed.“Get away from me,” Eero shoved her aside.“I will go get the doctor,” Stella said and was quick to rush off.Eero was about to rip the IVs from his arm when the doctor walked into the room.“Don’t do that. You need fluids,” the doctor stopped him.“How long have I been here?” Eero questioned.“A couple of days,” the doctor said, and checked his vitals. “If you like, I can move you to your own room.”“I would like to see princess Ami,” Eero stated.“Princess Ami?” the doctor frowned and took a deep breath. “I am sorry, but she died.”“Died?” Eero choked not believing his ears.“I am sorry. She jumped
Everyone was already waiting for Michael when he got back to the castle.“What on earth happened to you?” Deacon asked.“Is Ann ok?” Jovita questioned because Jessica showed them the state Ann was in when she mind linked them.“What is going on?” Queen Amirah questioned, walking into the council hall that was used for important meetings when all species got together.“Come, follow me,” Michael said and thought it best he showed them.“Where are you taking us?” Juno demanded to know when it was clear that Michael was leading them to the vampire wing.‘Is he tricking us?’ Jovita mind linked Juno and Deacon at the same time.‘We are three against one,’ Deacon put her mind at ease.‘Four,’ Juno corrected him, hinting at Queen Amirah.‘I don’t trust her,’ Deacon mind linked them both.‘Makes two of us. For all we know they are planning something together,’ Jovita responded in a mind link.‘Is everything ok? What is going on?’ Jovita, Juno, and Deacon got Jessica’s mind link at the same tim
Deacon found Wynn in Ami’s room. “Thought I will find you here.”“I have some bad news. I thought I will come to tell you in person,” Deacon said, pulling up a chair.“I am all ears,” Wynn said.“It appears Paris is a pile of ash,” Deacon said.Wynn was taken aback by the news, but for some reason, he kind of expected it. “So Paris killed Stella?”“It appears so,” Deacon said.“Thanks for telling me,” Wynn said, too worried about Ami to feel emotional over Paris.“I think Eero has something to do with it as well,” Deacon said after a moment of silence.“I think Eero pushed her out of the window and ran off. I think he could not accept the fact that she chose our fated bond over him and decided if he can't have her, no one will,” Wynn said.“That sounds more like Stella,” Deacon said.“If you say so,” Wynn said flatly.“There is another thing you should know,” Deacon started. “Perhaps you already know.”Wynn looked up at Deacon, waiting for him to continue.“Eero kissed Ami, right?” De
‘I hear you helped Michael with a spell to trap Torvald,’ Deacon mind linked Mr. Ondrink.‘Is it a problem?’ Mr. Ondrink mind linked Deacon back.‘Even if it is a problem, does it matter now?’ Deacon mind linked back.‘How is the were-owl princess doing?’ Mr. Ondrink asked instead of answering Deacon.‘Still alive, still in a coma,’ Deacon mind linked.‘Good. Anything else?’ Mr. Ondrink questioned.‘Yes, I want you to come to the higher council,’ Deacon mind linked.‘Why? You know I have a pack to run,’ Mr. Ondrink objected.‘So, you are willing to assist Michael, but not me?’ Deacon spat.‘You have like a dozen shamans to your exposal. What do you want with me?’ Mr. Ondrink.‘Discretion,’ Deacon mind linked. ‘It is not a request,’ Deacon warned him.Deacon walked over to his own room and took a shower and freshen up before heading over to Jessica’s dorm room in the hope of taking her out on a date.Deacon drove past Ann and Michael, that was sitting outside by the Starbucks café. ‘I
Jessica kept on catching Lestat’s scent but every time when she thinks she found him he was gone. Not only did Lestat leave behind a trail of his scent, but Jessica also picked up the fragrance of blue cornflowers. ‘I hope Deacon did not return and think he can win me over with flowers,’ Jessica thought but then she noticed a blue cornflower, its fragrance mixed with Lestat’s scent, and she realized that Lestat was playing a game of cat and mouse with her. Jessica followed the trail of blue cornflowers that led her out of the frat house. She soon found herself in the backyard of the frat house which was quiet since all the students were inside the house getting drunk. Jessica followed the trial of flowers along with Lestat’s scent and wondered why he was leading her away from the frat house. ‘Is he not supposed to be supervised?’ Jessica ended up at a beautiful, modern house that was on varsity property and found herself in the middle of a garden that was filled with a variety of blu
