Hael’s P.O.V.

Leaving Violet in my bedroom, I headed back to hers. Sliding into her bed, under her frilly pink comforter, without her, was a bit odd. It was necessary, though.

I huddled under the covers, my ears peeled, and senses stretched as far as they could reach, for what could’ve easily been hours.

When the window beside Violet’s closet opened, I was more than aware of it.

A light breeze carried the scent of the intruder into the room. It was a familiar mixture of blood, sweat, and stale cigarettes. With my breathing slow and calculated, I continued to wait.

Their footsteps were so quiet that I instantly knew whoever this was, was no stranger to breaking in unnoticed. Even their breathing was dampened, almost undetectable.

This fucker was good, but I was better.

The intruder’s presence loomed over the comforter, and I waited with calming breaths for the moment my gut told me to act. One second turned into two, and on the third, I was hit with a wave of fury that had me springin

It can't be Lorenzo or Blaze they're both too young and supposed to be dead. It's not Elijah because she never spoke to him at the bar. I really want Cole and Arianna to be her siblings but they were both tested and shouldve showed up in the system as a family member because of genetics.

  • Violets and Ash   Chapter 146

    Violet’s P.O.V.Hael had been serious about training me, a fact I’d only begun to regret when the asshole woke me up at four o’clock Friday morning.I’d stumbled bleary eyed, my hair a tangled mess on my head, into the gym in the basement of the estate.I didn’t even know this place had a basement.To make matters worse, he’d given me the news of what happened to Killer after spending another night with Cole. Luckily, I hadn’t yet eaten breakfast, so I wasn’t at risk of throwing anything up.Killer was dead, succumbing to the torture Cole had put him through. He hadn’t given us any more information, which Hael seemed to believe meant one thing. Whoever this Nic was, he terrified Killer enough to make him endure hours of agonizing torture.That wasn’t at all a good sign.Even now, I had to push the thought of what Cole did to the guy far from my mind. I might be slowly on my way to recovering my memories and the badass fighting skills I now had a slight grasp on, but I wasn’t sure I’d

    Violet’s P.O.V.“….aaaaand done!” Delaney exclaimed, stepping back from the stool I sat on.Her hands were clasped behind her back and a grin with the intensity of a child opening presents on Christmas morning lit her face. I looked to Olive, who was reclining on the chaise lounge in her bedroom. She had her arms propped behind her head, the obsidian bikini top she wore on display.The spider web design was overlaid by a shimmery material that made her chest sparkle any time she moved. I didn’t at all miss the appreciative look Delaney had given her when she stepped out of the bathroom. When paired with her colored hair and dark eye make-up, it gave her an extra dose of intimidation that even her petite frame couldn’t ruin.Olive took one look at me, or rather, my chest, and sighed loudly.“I love women.”Delaney burst into a fit of musical laughter. “No, you love breasts.”Olive’s eyes slid from Delaney’s face to the pink bikini top that cradled her chest like it had been made for he

    Violet’s P.O.V.Focusing on the glorious buzz that dulled my senses, I undressed and followed Olive into the water. It was warm as it licked my skin, soaking into the ends of my hair that hung down my back.Eyes pelted my skin, but the only ones I paid any attention to were the ones that elicited a chill down my spine.Hael was watching, I was sure of it. Oddly enough, it made it easier to relax and have fun. I knew that if anyone were to approach me, either he or Cole would step in.The center of the lake, where the floating obstacle course began, actually wasn’t that deep. I was able to keep my head above the water by bouncing on my toes. We swam over to the trampoline just in time to see a familiar face go flying off the side.Holden appeared just a few feet from where he landed, a grin on his tanned face that showed every one of his straight, white teeth.“You guys came!” He beamed, swimming over to us. His broad shoulders stuck out from the water, packed with muscle that came fro

    Violet’s P.O.V.That voice—that dark voice, promising pain and blood, melted the very ice that kept me prisoner, filling me with such visceral relief that my shoulders slumped.I gasped, not realizing I’d been holding my breath this entire time. My chest burned with each inhale, but my greedy lungs had been deprived long enough. Holden didn’t notice, though. He didn’t notice how I stumbled away from him, desperate to put some distance between us, or how my hands shook.He lowered his hand from my face, his eyes narrowed into small slits. “Perfect timing as always, Ashford, butting in on a private conversation. You sure know how to kill the fucking mood.”What the hell has gotten into him? I’ve never seen him act like this before.A blur of midnight hair and pale skin clouded my vision. I blinked, my eyes opening just in time to witness Hael’s fist colliding with Holden’s face. Holden staggered, and Hael swung out with his leg, bringing the football player to the ground.He began to ra

    Violet’s P.O.V.For a split second, there was silence—pure, unending silence. It lingered between each tree, through the grass that tickled my ankles and clung to my wet skin. It even swallowed my ragged, pained breaths.Then, the pain came.It was quick, so quick that I hadn’t seen it coming. A body, hard with thick layers of muscle, plowed into me from behind. My feet skidded across the ground before coming up, my torso twisting as a set of arms snared my waist.I waited for the ground to come up and grab me, to crush what little air I had left from my lungs, but that never happened. Instead, I landed on that hard, muscular body. It had turned at the last second, taking the impact.He kept me from hitting the ground.That small speck of kindness meant nothing, though. Before it could fill me with any sort of hope, Hael flipped us over.I couldn’t breathe. Even though my lungs were free to suck in as much oxygen as they needed, they didn’t dare move. Goddess, what had I turned this m

    Hael’s P.O.V.“Mark me.”The two words I whispered to the Goddess writhing beneath me had never felt so right. I’d say them again and again if it meant witnessing the surprise unfurl across her face, widening those pale eyes of hers. Eyes that made me feel as though I were drowning.She fluttered her pretty lashes, rose petals blooming across her cheeks.“You want me to—to…” My mate never could see her worth.The moment I saw her at the lake, I knew tonight would be the night I claimed her. I watched from the shadows as she slipped the faded t-shirt over her head, oblivious to how sensual and downright mouthwatering she looked.I had intended to be gentler, to try and make tonight romantic even though I had no clue how, but seeing Holden touch her had all but obliterated my plans. He ignored the very clear signs she was exhibiting, seconds away from taking something she did not want to give.I should have killed him.While I wanted to think of all the ways I’d torture him, it was ha

    Hael’s P.O.V.“Hael, it hurts—it hurts so good. Oh god!” She gasped; her gemstone eyes blown wide. Liquid seeped from her pussy in waves, drenching us both. The little thing was so turned on she could barely stand it. Fuck, I could barely stand it.“That’s it, princess. Make me your God.” I was lost to her, drowning in her scent and touch. It filled my lungs, clouding my head so thoroughly that the words fell from my lips without abandon. Half of them didn’t make any sense to my lust-crazed brain, but Violet seemed to understand. She never failed to reply, indulging in all of the terrible things I told her I’d finally do to her.“Take it for me, take the pain like a good girl. You fucking love it, don’t you? You love this cock.”I had my fingers and tongue in her pussy long enough to know when she was on the verge of imploding. She tightened around me, her lips parting for her tongue to swipe across its surface.“Come on my cock, Violet.” I rasped, smoothing my thumb over her clit. It

    Violet’s P.O.V.After Hael left, I began to thoroughly curse myself for being so stupid.The cause of my anger wasn’t from sleeping with Hael. No, I didn’t regret that in the slightest. If anything, my body was more than eager to do it again…and again.I’d been so wrapped up in his scent, drowning in his touch and the way he made my soul sing, that I hadn’t even realized we didn’t use protection.With my luck, I would end up pregnant my first time having sex.Cole, keen as ever, took one look at us and broke out into a shit-eating grin. Just as he began to raise his cup and cheer, Hael stepped forward with his patented death glare in place. It was a good thing Cole couldn’t see the mark on his best-friend’s neck. If he had, I doubt even a well placed threat would keep him from exploding.“Don’t even think about it.” He warned menacingly, completely oblivious to how my body reacted to his gravely voice.You’d think the soreness in between my legs would calm my libido for the time being

    Violet’s P.O.V. Ten Years Later “I’ve got to say, I’m impressed. You’ve definitely improved.” I teased, slipping my arms around my husband’s waist as he stood over the stove. The brisket he tended to had been a twenty-four-hour project of his that he insisted on getting perfect. In fact, this entire dinner tonight had been cooked by him alone. It was his way of proving all my years of cooking lessons hadn’t gone unnoticed. He spun around with a piece of meat in his hand. I went to pluck it from his fingers only for him to move it just out of reach. He shook his head, his ebony hair falling over his brows. “Open up, princess.” I pulled him close, my stomach fluttering as I did as he asked. A groan slid past my lips at the rich, savory flavor. He really had improved in his cooking skills. Another year or two and he’d probably surpass me. One of his arms slid around my waist and remained there as he reached across the counter to grab one of the cupcakes he’d made. Rich chocolate and

    Violet’s P.O.V.Two Months LaterDeep breaths, Violet. In and out just like Doctor Leanna said. There’s nothing to be afraid of, nothing at all.Hael squeezed my hand once, and I looked up to meet his knowing stare. The ring on my left hand twinkled in the sunlight as we walked. It was such a beautiful day, and I didn’t miss the irony of that fact as we headed into the maximum-security prison that loomed overhead.Today was the day of Dominic Harding’s execution.Trailing behind us was everyone Dominic, Alice, and Noah had ever hurt. My Mom and Dad were first, followed by Marcel in his wheelchair, then Sylvia, Olive, Cole, and Mykelle. Even Eric Chen was attending, though he was likely already waiting inside. The execution wouldn’t commence without us, leaving me with plenty of time to mull things over.I turned my head to the sky, drinking in the sunlight that warmed my cheeks. There wasn’t a single cloud in sight. It was as though the Goddess herself knew that today wasn’t a time fo

    Hael’s P.O.V.One Week Later“Hael! You are in so much trouble.” Violet gasped, but I wasn’t hearing any of it.I paused in front of the doorway, the breath sucked from my lungs at the sight of my mate. You’d think it had been days since we last saw one another with how fast my heart was racing, yet it had only been a couple of hours. Her cheeks warmed beneath her pretty pink blush, and she toyed with the ends of her freshly cut hair nervously.The gown she wore was embedded with tiny gemstones that twinkled whenever she moved. I’d never seen fabric so shimmery before, almost like it had been sliced from the night sky. It was worth every penny to see it wrapped around her mouthwatering curves. Her pupils dilated as she took me in, and fuck if I didn’t love the way her breath hitched.I crossed the small dressing room in six strides and pulled her into my arms, her dress whooshing as it slid against my tux. There was so much raw emotion rushing through me that only her presence kept me

    Violet’s P.O.V.The crowd’s chattering came to a halt as the sea of people parted. Voices faded into the distance until only one remained, louder than all the rest. Mykelle groaned from where she sat in the back of an ambulance and covered her face with her hands.“Coming through, coming through! Beta of Alpha Hael here and mate to the most beautiful she-wolf in this place. Come on, people, move it!”Cole shoved his way through the crowd, barreling through the caution tape so quickly that the warriors scattered to seal the breach. A handful ran after him, clearly not getting the memo that he had the authority to be here. Cole either didn’t notice their presence or didn’t care. His eyes were locked on one person in particular.A flutter of something warm and pleasant filled my chest as I watched the scene unfold.Mykelle scoffed at the sight of him, turning her nose up as though she could care less. The blush staining her cheeks and the way she combed her fingers through her hair said

    Violet’s P.O.V.Hael stood from the injured wolf, radiating such pride that I wanted nothing more than to fall into his arms and let him tell me it was finally over. I stumbled over to him when a bloodcurdling cry pierced the air.It was the scream of someone being mauled.“Mykelle, stop!” I shouted in time to watch her fling Dominic’s severed arm across the room.Oh fuck. My stomach clenched as I gagged. The massive wolf stepped off of Dominic’s chest, kicking him in the head with its hind leg. She pulled her muzzle back and flashed her blood-stained teeth. Was she grinning at me?Hael snorted, so I must’ve been right.“I know he’s the one that tormented your family and all, but why couldn’t you just let me finish him? I would’ve made it worthwhile.” Mykelle huffed, now standing between Hael and I with her arms folded over her naked chest. She lifted her hand to inspect her nails, a smirk tilting at her lips as she found her manicure still intact.“Don’t be selfish. If anyone deserve

    Violet’s P.O.V.“You killed my brother.” Alice seethed, her eyes a shock of white across a canvas of blistering red.Hael cocked his head, the grin on his face both dark and playful. With a gentle hand he pushed me to the side, partially concealing me behind his back. The thudding upstairs continued without missing a beat, as did the drip, drip, drip, of Noah’s blood on the carpet.“I honestly thought he’d put up more of a fight, but instead he hid behind his gun like a coward. It’s not at all surprising that his sister’s exactly the same.”I reached out to stop him from goading her when I spotted the knife behind his back. The hilt was clutched tightly in his hand, and from the way his muscles bunched I knew he was preparing to strike. Alice snarled, the sound cracking off the walls of the small living room.“You think you’re going to trick me into dropping my gun? Please, I’m no fool. You know what? I’m actually thankful my whore of a sister survived when Noah threw her into that fi

    Hael’s P.O.V.You’re never going to see her again.The fuck I wouldn’t.I scrambled off of Holden’s body, kicking the bastard in the head for good measure. He had said his name was Noah—the Noah. Absolute fury rushed through me, all of it directed at myself. How many times had he been within sniffing distance of Violet? Too many to count.He tried to kiss her. His fucking half-sister. Man, the guy really was messed up. Should’ve trusted my gut about him, but it was much too late for that.Marcel groaned as I turned him over, his face slathered with his own blood. With my fingers pressed against his throat, I felt around until I registered a small flutter. Atticus’s Beta had taken half a dozen bullets for me. The feeling it left me with was uncomfortable as fuck.“You stupid, lucky asshole. I really hate owing people.” I muttered as I swiped his phone off the floor.The first call I made was for an ambulance, while the second was to Cole. Thank fuck I’d memorized his number considering

    Violet’s P.O.V.Dominic stood from his crouch and offered me his hand. While I wanted to bite him and tear a few fingers off as revenge for Olive, I didn’t. I swallowed the disgust that rose from this never-ending pit in my stomach and accepted his help.He didn’t let go though, not for several seconds.“I know you likely have mixed feelings for Hael, but I promise you this is for the best. You trusted me once, and I know that trust will return in due time. Still I feel the need to apologize.” His shoulders fell as he sighed, those dark brows furrowing.“Apologize for what?” Such a stupid question, but what didn’t he have to apologize for? He ruined my family’s life. That didn’t just call for an apology. It called for fucking vengeance.There was such genuine guilt on his face that my heart cried out in response.Dominic ran his hand down his jaw, clenching it as he spoke. “If I hadn’t been so absent, I would’ve noticed the signs. Hael was manipulating you this entire time, just as At

    Violet’s P.O.V.The eyes I stared into were Elijah’s, the same man who had raised me these past ten years, but his face was no longer his own. Now that I had seen the mask fall, I’d never be able to go back to who I’d once been.It tore my heart in two to know that the man who had written those terrible letters to my Mom was also the man who had bought me my first cookbook. Elijah—it had been Elijah all along. Behind those soft eyes and his kind smile was the darkest kind of monster.No matter what I felt for him, I would not let him take me. If that meant playing into his sick fantasy, then so be it.I inched my way across the carpet, as far away from my vomit as I could get. The stench alone would make it impossible to speak without gagging. Elijah hovered over me, still on his knees with his hands out in that placating gesture. The sight of it made me sick.“I don’t understand how this is happening. You—You had us both. You had me at the cabin and my mother…” There was no need to f
