Maverick has his arms wrapped around my waist tight, holding me close to his sculpted chest and his lips connect to mine, and it’s like a burst of energy surges through me. Not once in all my centuries of being on this earth have I ever kissed a man willingly. ‘Sloan, what the hell are you doing? he is a wolf,’ My conscience screams.
Pulling away abruptly, I stare at Maverick with confusion and narrow my eyes. “What the fuck was that?” I hiss, backing away. He reaches out to me. “I’m sorry, I don’t know what came over me,” He says apologetically. I slap his hand away. “Don’t touch me,” I say in a harsh tone, turning to open my door when he grabs my wrist. ‘I have had enough of this wolf. I don’t know what he expects from me. We are enemies,’ I think as I spun around and sucker-punched him in the jaw with all my vamp power, knocking him off my porch. &ldquo
This chapter will have another language (Translation between)The phone falls to the floor, Shattering into tiny fragments. My tears fall heavy down my cheeks as I fall to my knees. “NO! PLEASE! WHY?” I scream, pleading for my mother as I cry my eye’s out.Sitting on the floor with my head between my knees. The tears have dried and all that I’m left with is a puffy red face. I raise my head to look around at all the pictures of my family. I stop at a photo of Ezra and me. Losing him was the hardest and most difficult time in my life. It even beats being left for dead.Finally, I stand to my feet, leaning against the wall for support. I feel the anger rise in me. It engulfs my whole body taking over. I sprint for the photos on the wall and rip them off, tossing them into the nearest wall, breaking the glass. I pick up the coffee table, flipping it over. I lift the couch one-handed
This chapter will have another language (Translation between)Watching my father walk away, panic sets in, and I start to pace back and forth in the hall, rambling to myself. “Ik ben iedereen kwijt. Dit is allemaal mijn schuld.” (I have lost everyone. This is all my fault.) I repeat over and over again as Maverick’s strong arms stop me. “Sloan, I think you need some rest,” he states pulling me towards the stairs, and I follow in a daze.He opens the door to a large corner room. I walk in, looking around, and I stop on a photo of Maverick and another man. I look over at him. “Who is this?” I ask, showing it to him. He walks over to me, placing his hand on the small of my back. “That is my brother Devon” he replies. I set it back down on the mantel.I walk over to the bed, taking a seat. “Who sleeps here?” I ask, glancing ar
The entire table stands quickly. Duke and Zara look frantic around as the guards and other trainees prepare for a fight. Maverick turns to me with worried eyes. “Sloan, stay here with my mother. I have to help the pack get to my brother.” He commands in a deep tone placing his hand on my shoulder. I swipe his hand away with a glare. “I am not a damsel in distress. I am going after them too,” I hiss as my lip twitches with anger. Maverick looks at me for a moment before Zara chimes in. “Sweetie, we don’t fight with the men. You must leave this to them.” She declared, grabbing my hand. I turn to her, lifting a brow. “I don’t depend on men to take care of me. I am a fighter, not someone’s property,” I retort, and Zara is taken back by my response. She looks at Maverick. “You were right. She is feisty” She laughs, looking back at me. “As you wish. I like your spunk and no fear you will be perfect for thi
As Maverick helps Devon to the packhouse, I am face to face with the one person I thought meant well but turned out to be the complete opposite. “Well, hello, Quinn. It has been some time since we last had the pleasure of your company, but I can see why being busy with wolves and all,” She hissed, displeased with my alliance with the Russo family. I smirk at her irritation. “Aww, have I hurt your feeling Luella?” I snap back. Her smile reappears. “If you think you could ever hurt my feelings, you’re sadly mistaken. Do you remember I have no soul, But I see you might be getting
Maverick POV“SLOAN!!” I shout in fear as I am not sure what to do for a dying vampire. I frantically pull out my cell phone from my pocket, dropping it with trembling hands. I pick it back up quickly to see Sloan's blood smeared all over the screen from my hands. I shook the thoughts from my mind an
Sloan POVMaverick stands at the window stunned to see me awake. “Sloan I’m so glad you’re awake” He said excitedly, walking to the side of the bed and taking a seat. I glance over at him. “How long have I been out?” I ask looking down at the IV i
As my body hits the floor, my bones crack, making the sound echo through the cabin. Chloe kneels, placing her hand on my shoulder. “Sloan, you are shifting, don't panic or it will make the pain a hundred times worse.” She announces, rubbing my back for comfort. I take a second to realize what she is saying, and I freak out. “WHAT?!” I shout, looking to Chloe for answers. She gives me a look of regret. “What are you not telling me?” I question frantically as pain sores through my body causing me to scream out again. “I
This story contains another language. (Translation)It has been several days since the change. I sit in the Russo mansion drinking some coffee, looking out the window when I am startled by someone entering the den. I quickly get to my feet in defense, but it is only Zara. I relax slumping back in my chair looking back out the window.
After the plane landed, we rushed to the hospital. Corbin accompanied us as well. As we entered the hospital entrance, I held onto Maverick’s hand tight with his palms sweaty and his body tense. I glance over at him. “I’m here. We will get through this together.” I said, squeezing his hand with reassurance. Maverick gave me a slight smile as he looked down at me. “I know,” He whispered. The stress radiated off him. I stop Maverick, forcing him to face me. “Hey, try to calm down because if we walk in there with you looking like this, it’s going to put more stress on your mom. We know nothing yet, so we need to be positive right now,” I tell him, caressing his chiseled jawline. Maverick leaned into my touch, closing his eyes. And when he reopene
Maverick looks at me with his mouth gaped open. “Um, what? I thought he was dead” He stares between the both of us, baffled.My gaze stays on Ezra. “Me too” I replied with the same stupid look on my face.“Hello,” The man before us smiles wide.My body moves forward against my will. “How are you alive?” I whisper in a daze as I reach out to touch my brother’s face to make sure I’m not dreaming.“My name is Corbin” He holds his hand out for me to shake.I look at him confused. “Corbin? How do you look like my brother?” My eyes darted around perplexed before shaking his hand.
Throwing the last shovel full of dirt over my father’s body I wipe the sweat from my forehead with the back of my hand then toss the shovel to the side, taking a seat on the ground and place a large rock for his headstone. The house has been abandoned all this time, and it was our family home this is where he needs to be.
The floor scraps the skin on my knees as I skid to a stop, grabbing my father in my arms and holding him against my chest. I am quickly drenched in his blood as I rock him back-and-forth sobbing uncontrollably knowing even for a vampire he can’t be helped, then a thought crosses my mind remembering I am now a hybrid and might save my father’s life.
Dread fills my entire being, I look around frantically searching the airport crowd then bring my phone back to my ear. “Where is my father, Ethan?” A growl escapes me.“Oh, have some patients, Quinn” He laughs smugly,
