“Is he asleep?"

"Yeah, went out like a light the moment I cuddled him."

"Our brother has picked favorites, little sister."

"Kara, the only reason he lets me cuddle him is because he thinks I'm warmer than you are."

"You are. Your body temperature has always been slightly higher than usual for our kind."

"You think it's because of my gift?"

"With fire comes heat. I think it is highly likely."

Conversation between Kara Black (18) and Ally Black (15)

ALLY’s POV

I stared at my reflection in the mirror and was met with my glowing eyes that were more yellow than amber at the moment.

It was the morning after the full moon and as I sat in the front of my bedroom mirror, watching the color of my eyes alternate between three colors, I looked down at my hands, where balls of fire currently danced. My sheets were burnt, courtesy of one of the many nightmares I'd had after returning from the woods in the early hours of the morning. The he

In that same building were offices. There was also accommodation for people who couldn't go home often due to the nature of their jobs.I felt bile rise up my throat when I remembered that my fathe

Heads of sub councils headed by a Councilor. Every continent had councilors, a group of six deadly vampires who exercised control over their own territory divided into equal parts, and had sub-councils in each country who oversaw the activities of vampires and answered to them. Jacob Thorne was on that Council, his home base a fortress in Quebec. A fortress I'd walked into to interrupt a ph

Our best trackers had combed the entire forest and even ventured as far as the borders separating us from the humans. They found nothing. Not even a scent. Long ago, The witches had provided a boundary spell that prevented the humans from ever waltzing into our lands. While we could walk freely into theirs, they had no idea we existed. The witches had created different illusions that made them stay away. It would have been easy to just contact a witch and ask them for help but since the war that almost wiped them off the face of the planet after they took sides, they decided to turn their backs

    "Kara, I had that dream again.""The same dream?""Yes. I was at the church, on the roof, but I wasn't alone. Someone was holding me, my face was buried in the stranger's neck. The only thing I can remember vividly are the feel of his hands. Cold. Very cold."Ally Black (15) to Kara Black (18)_________________________________________________________Ally’s POV To say I was frustrated with the meeting was an understatement.Nothing had changed. The other packs in the province had searched and found nothing. The packs in the other regions had said they would tell us if they found anything. They hadn't found anything. People were already trying to move on, not that I could blame them but I just couldn't believe my father was dead. If they wanted him dead, they wouldn't have gone through the stress of even kidnapping him. They burnt the entire pack house to do it. He wasn't dead.Yet.

The first ever painting I'd done of her. A portrait that stopped at her shoulders covered in the white dress she always wore in my dreams. Dark chocolate wild curls. Tanned skin. Glowing yellow eyes. When she was just a dream, it was easier but now that she was real, with a heartbeat that sang to me every time she was near, it was becoming harder to stay away. Especially after what'd happened tonight. What were the chances that after returning to Canada in 1999, I'd find her sixteen years later, sitting on the roof of an abandoned chur

I hadn't even made a move to pack anything because I was still beating myself up over the idea. Did I want to go? Of course not.Absolutely. I'd spent most of the time at my house because I didn't need Myers seeing me hysterical. It was just a trip. To wherever we could get an answer. Right? I'd never left the werewolf territory before. Okay, there was this one time that we went on a three-week trip to England because Mama wanted the whole British experience and my dad hadn't been able to say no. That

    Ally’s POVI opened my eyes to find myself on a bed in a very cold room. So cold that the air I breathed out made me think it was winter period. I looked around the dark empty room and stood up, making the bed creak and disturbing the creepy silence that enveloped the place. Slowly, I took careful steps towards the door and opened it. I stepped into the dark corridor and walked using the wall as my guide. The more I walked, the colder it became until my teeth were practically frozen. That's when I heard it. A violent howl.A pained yell. The voice sounded very familiar and I began doubling my steps. "Don't let me die" the voice pleaded and I gasped. My father.I started running."Dad, where are you? Tell me, please. Say something. I'm coming, okay?" "Find the moonstone. Set us free."As I approached a door at the end of the hall, strong arms began pulling me back. "No. Let me go. What are you doing to him?" I struggled and yelled. I sobbed and kept trying to break free. "L

    The first lesson to understanding what it is to be a werewolf is this. Werewolves are easily provoked. Anger is the most familiar emotion to our kind and the day you let your anger control you, it may very well be the day you die. Excerpt from "Understanding the Wolf" by Dr Jael Walker (Rocca pack member)______________________________________________Ally’s POVFor what felt like hours, Caleb and I sat in the car, neither of us making a move. We just stared at Aiden and he looked so bored, probably from watching us do nothing. "We should get down." I nodded at Caleb's statement even though it felt like he was trying to convince himself to not drive away. I understood why. Vampires and wolves together in a place didn't always end well and he'd been trained to be suspicious of their kind. I was trained too, although it seemed like I was losing my senses by the minute. I stepped out of the car and walked towards the trees, Caleb closely behind me. Aiden raised his eyebrows and s

    Dahlia’s POVIt'd been weeks since she disappeared. The local news had reported an explosion in the mountainous uninhabited area of Yukon and there was a hole in the ice. Nothing had been found. No bodies. No castle. Nothing but ashes in the snow. Aiden and Caleb were found in the woods in Fairfield by the Reyes vampires, barely conscious and agony written over their faces as they struggled to accept the reality of what Allyson had done. Post explosion, more rogues and black witches had been caught and killed thanks to the information Renee had given Caleb, the whereabouts of Ian Sinclair, the only known hybrid a mystery after he'd spoken to Caleb who'd shakily passed along a message from his dead friend, Renee. The last time I'd spoken to him, he'd been cold and distant, muttering 'I shouldn't have promised her.'Aiden Thorne had disappeared, his whereabouts known only by his cousin Tamara who looked grim anytime I asked about his state.

    Ally’s POVThe last person I expected to see when I opened my eyes was sitting in front of me. Hale and hearty. Caleb. My best friend. My best friend who'd told me he was in love with me. My best friend who'd let them take me. I shifted away from him almost immediately and he looked hurt. "Allyson, look–""No, Caleb, you look." I showed him my cuffed hands and he winced. "They said it was to stop you from hurting yourself. All the times I came to see you, you were unconscious.""Because they were drugging me, Caleb. I don't even understand. I feel like I don't know you anymore. How could you have betrayed me like that?"His face turned to the side like I'd slapped him. I wished I did. "Betrayed you? You think I did this because I wanted to betray you? Why would even believe that?" "So, what the hell happened?" "The day I picked up Renee from the airport, she said something about helping us in whatever way she could and when I questioned it, she said she didn't do it for me. Tha

    ALLY’s POV"Wake up, lovebirds." The sound of glasses clinking together made me force my eyes open despite the throbbing headache and blurry vision. I was tied to a chair that was turned sideways, placing me in direct line of sight of Aiden's barely conscious form tied to another chair. "It makes me sad to keep you both sedated but that is the way it must be, we can't have this one–" Dorothea Marin finally appeared in my line of vision as she walked towards Aiden, lifting his face up and placing a soft kiss on his mouth. Biting her lip with his fang, Aiden opened his eyes and glared at her, seemingly forgetting that hurting her would hurt me. She smiled, cupped his jaw and turned his head until he was looking in my direction to see the cut on my bottom lip where he'd bitten her slowly close up. His eyes were hazy, the grey of his blue-grey eyes seemingly vanished beneath the blue that looked even darker as the light from the fireplace illuminated his face. "What did you do to him

  • Unnatural: The Wildfire   Chapter 58

    ALLY’S POVI'd counted the number of people I'd walked past as Dorothy led me through the corridors of what she called 'The Love Castle'. Twenty. Rogue vampires and wolves. And witches. I didn't recognize any of them. They seemed to know who I was and some lingered to stare at me before resuming on their way. Apparently, I was the only one who'd done something to deserve being in chains. After the revelation that Aiden was coming here, I'd shoved all of her supposed truths to the back of my mind. I was in denial. It was either that or believe all that she'd said when I was still finding it very difficult to wrap my head around what Renee Falls had revealed to me. Everyone around me seemed to have some shocking revelation whenever I was present. There was a scar on my right palm from where a witch who'd claimed to be blood of my blood had sliced me open. I assumed if I was crazy enough to believe Dorothy, it meant she was a Marin witch too. She'd done the same thing to Dorothea an

    "There's been an attack, Aiden.""Where?" "Quebec. Rogue sightings. Uncle says his people have it under control. It seems the Gomez pack and the Benets are also having disagreements. Territory related." "The Alpha of the Gomez Pack is Grayson. Is it not?" "What are you thinking?" "Distractions. Distractions from the real plan, Tamara. If the factions are too busy fighting others–""No one will be as interested in the hybrids that are supposed to be myth."______________________________________________ALLY’s POVI'd spent most of my life dealing with involuntary unconsciousness after every fire incident. My ability crippled me, controlled me without my will. It was no wonder why I hated being forced into doing things I didn't want to do. Like being injected into unconsciousness. And being forced out of said unconsciousness. I should've been hysterical after everything that happened with Renee. I should've started the hysteria the moment I walked into a lake and came out in the hi

    ALLY’s POV"Trust not the woman with hair of fire and blood as like that which runs through your veins.""Child of moon and fire.""Wake up, sister. Wake up." The instant I opened my eyes, I knew I wasn't alone. I was chained to a bed, silver cuffs holding my hands to the headboard. I was dizzy, nauseous and my vision was blurry but I could make out the shape of the woman standing by the window, with her back to me wearing a red cloak. Sniffing, my blood ran cold. Vampire. Not Tamara. The memories of the last thing that happened before I lost consciousness hit me like an arrow to the heart. Caleb had betrayed me. I shook my head, trying to believe that wasn't the case, trying to see it from his point of view.Whoever fed him those lies, that's who was to blame, right? I was sure that he'd believed he was doing it for my own good. After all, I needed whomever had the Deanton to break the curse and I needed the blood of a Marin witch. They had two of the elements, I had two. The moo

    If you're reading this, it means that you finally opened the locket, my love. My prognosis is bad and I'm afraid that I don't have much time left to wait till you've come of age. I'm so sorry that I hid the truth from you for such a long time but it was the best I could do, that we could do to protect you. To make sure you stayed alive. If you've not already figured this out, I'll tell you. Christian and I are not your biological parents. I never got a chance to meet your father but your mother was the sweetest person there was and no, she didn't abandon you. She needed a place to hide you from some really bad people that wanted to take you because you were special and different. Like your real father was. She took her last breath after cradling you in her arms. I'm sorry that I couldn't save her like she saved Kara's life all those years ago, but I promised to protect you and love you like my own till fate came for you.

    "Dahlia, there is something you must do for me, please." "Anything, Allyson.""There is a place in London that I need you to check. A safe. Retrieve the contents and keep it safe. I'll come to you for it.""Send me the coordinates. I'll see to it personally.""Thank you.""And Allyson? Whatever you do, you must not let yourself be manipulated.

Trust your gut."______________________________________________Ally’s POVI'd asked Aiden to bring me to the place where I'd almost been taken. It was a park situated not too far from where the festival had happened that night. Remembering nothing, I'd turned to leave but he'd held my hand and now we were sitting on a bench, watching the sunset. "Where'd you apply to? For college." Not allowing my surprise that he'd chosen to fill the silence with a random question show, I took a deep breath and answered as honestly as I could. It was the least I could do since I was pl

    Tamara’s POV"When do you think we should go in?" I asked Aiden. For someone who'd just heard that the lover he'd tried to kill had instead lived, he looked better than most, his hands clasped as his face remained calm. The forever apathetic mask. We were sitting in the coffee shop opposite the house, after returning from Curt Reyes' home. Neither them nor the king wolves had found any trail that would lead us to locating the Marin witches. And now that we knew they were making use of portals, that changed a lot of things. According to the witch order, the Marin witches stopped existing after majority of them were killed after the Great Purge. Unsaid were the words, by a certain A-telekinetic. Said telekinetic that looked like he'd been about to drop dead after hearing that he'd failed in carrying out his revenge. "They need some time to talk without worrying about us hearing them." He answered, referring to Allyson and Caleb. "How did you know all of those things that you and Ally
