Valene: Daughter of the Shadow Rogues Chapter 101: I Don't Need Saving Pt. 1
ARES:She really could put em back-this one. Not alcohol. Food.I sat there amazed at how much this relatively small young woman could scarf down a meal. It wasn’t just her ‘sweet treats’ that she loved so much. She seemed to be a connoisseur of food in general. Vale was a voluptuous woman-more than most inhumans I’d ever known, but she was still fit.I continued to watch in amusement as she finished off a large bowl of baked spaghetti with meat sauce and meatballs. This was the sixth in a seven-course meal that she ordered. Her dessert was next.She slurped up the last spaghetti noodle as she finally met my mirthful gaze. “Not what you had in mind, I take it," she remarked. I was assuming, she was speaking in terms of her...less than lady-like way of eating.I could do little more than chuckle at her remark. “To be honest, I am not sure what I should have expected.” She smirked and then pushed away her meal before pulling this large chocolate, domed cake toward her. Something call
Valene: Daughter of the Shadow Rogues Chapter 102: I Don't Need Saving Pt. 2
It didn’t take too long before we ended up at a spot not far from the city line of Shadow Veil. “Vale!” The large security guard exclaimed excitedly as we approached. “Seymour,” she smiled as she sauntered seductively over to him. I was starting to second guess that the girl didn't know what she was doing. She simply had to know how sexy she was. The large human embraced her, tightly wrapping his large arms around her waist. He didn't seem to want to let her go.I didn’t like it. I didn’t like it at all.“Can we kill him?” Bain asked as I stood there glaring holes in the human’s head. His only obsession was the young woman standing in front of him. “We haven’t eaten in a while. We should kill him.” “Reel it in Bain.” Now, it was my turn to control my counterpart. A rarity in and of itself. “And who is this?” The security guard- I didn’t care enough to remember his name, had said.I could see in his eyes that he wanted to challenge me. It was because of this that I came to the re
Valene: Daughter of the Shadow Rogues Chapter 103: Mum's Gone Missing Pt. 1
Vale:It didn’t take long for us to get to the packhouse. That was when my father decided to hold the meeting as opposed to the family home. Understandably so. I was still in a volatile mood when we walked through the door. There was no particular reason why. There was never a particular reason why I was in a mood. Every little thing seemed to excite me or set me off since I transitioned into this…version of myself. Ares Barbosa’s presence only seemed to agitate what little resolve I thought I had. I had turned in to someone or…some thing that I could no longer recognize. The more time that I spent with Ares, the easier it was to see. I would not admit this aloud. At least not in front of him, but…I didn’t really like this version of myself. In fact, it…in a sense, made me feel insecure about myself.I missed being the human vassal who was silently confident and undoubtedly compassionate and kind. As we approached the packhouse, I found that my eyes had been consistently on Ares’s
Valene: Daughter of the Shadow Rogues Chapter 104: Mum's Gone Missing Pt. 2
When we finally approached the meeting room, Ares opened the door and gave me space to enter again. For all his faults, one thing for certain was that Ares was a gentleman, for sure.As soon as we entered, all eyes were on us. I glanced at Ares and then headed into the room.“Vale,” greeted my father.I smiled, nothing reaching but wide enough to be courteous. Although, I did enjoy my father’s company. Even now. I sauntered over to my father and, as I did, noticed that Harlyn was standing nearby. I was curious, and I wanted to speak with her as she had been among the wall of things on my mind.Before I could greet my little half-sister, however, Dad seemed to have had a bit on his mind. “You’re late, Ares.” There was clear impatience and frustration in his voice as he said this.“Dad, it wasn’t his idea,” I started to say when Ares lifted his hand to silence me.“I do not need protection, little inhuman,” he said, his eyes steadily on my father as he said this. “You know as well as
Valene: Daughter of the Shadow Rogues Chapter 105: Heart to Heart & A Familiar Face
Vale: I knew it wouldn’t take long to find my mother, so I didn’t go straight to her. I thought about veering off the beaten path and finding something to get into for a little while, but I thought better of it. There were strange things happening in Shadow Veil and the sooner we found out the root of the problem, the better off we’d all be. And maybe I'd finally be able to leave this place behind once and for all. Maybe. Even if I had no clue where Mum's secluded little hiding spot was located, I'd easily find her. Mum's power always gave her away. There was something almost electrifying about her power. Everywhere she went, whenever she was in a mood, the breeze would pick up, forcing the trees to sway against the night air. What would most always give her away, however, was the mist that would arise from the ground nearby. I stood outside of the log cabin, the little abode that she lived in whilst watching over me my whole entire life, and watched as her unspoken anxiety a
Valene: Daughter of the Shadow Rogues Chapter 106: Tobias's Return Pt. 1
Merari:As we stood there, facing young Tobias, I could not help but picture the face that I remembered as a baby at that orphanage. Then, too, the young man that he had become once the beta had decided to take him in.Admittedly, Valene was treated particularly well for Alastair not to know who she truly was to him. I guessed that Tobias would have gotten the same treatment. At first, I felt guilty about steering Alastair in our daughter’s direction. I knew, after seeing the way that Vale was being raised, that I had robbed him of a comfortable life. Then Toran showed up and decided to snatch him up. Toran was far more lenient than even Alastair was when it came to Tobias. Sure, the young lad was respectful and stayed in his place like the rest of them, but when left to his own devices, he was as free to do what he pleased as Vale, even more so, if I was being honest.It was because of this that, for a time, he had been allowed to leave the Slaughter’s vassal hood. Interestingly en
Valene: Daughter of the Shadow Rogues Chapter 107: Tobias's Return Pt. 2
Vale:She was concerned, and she had every right to be. Tobias was different; he wasn’t the same one I knew before. Not completely, at least. He watched my mother closely the entire time that she was there, and when she left, he watched her depart. His eyes lingered on the spot long after she had gone. It was sort of unsettling. I thought to break the silence, but I didn’t because I wanted Tobias to do it. I wanted to know what was on his mind. It was clear that this was not the same Tobias that I knew over two years ago and half of my life before that. Still, I wanted to know that there was some part of him remaining behind, whatever this darkness was that had clouded over him.“You know, she’s right,” he finally said to me, his back still facing me as he broke the lull in the conversation.When I didn’t respond, he turned around and finally faced me with that trademark, charming smile on his face. I still didn’t respond to him because I wasn’t ready to. Not just yet.“Your mother,
Valene: Daughter of the Shadow Rogues Chapter 108: Tobias's Return Pt. 3
Alastair: Valene and Merari had been missing for well over an hour. We'd be getting nowhere on this night. Tired of waiting, I dispersed the crowd for the meeting. The least we could do was ensure the city was protected until we received more intel on who we were potentially up against. There was no point in further discussion if the whole reason behind the meeting was missing. I ordered the witches to cast border shields and alarms along the city line that would signal us whenever a rogue was near. It would at least make things easier on the pack. “Alright, let’s disperse to the borders,” I ordered my pack. “Ares, spread your pack where you see fit, but I will call mine to the north and west. We'll spread out in between each designated area." “And what do you want us to do?” Harlyn asked. In her silence, I had nearly forgotten that she was there. "Harlyn, I-""And what are we going to do about the vampire coven?" "What do you mean?" "Are they not supposed to be assisti
