Chapter 65: Day 23 (night)
While Ella jumped into Marcus’ arms with a squeal and started kissing him in delight as she took in the metallic shimmer of her eyes, Sinn moved further down the tunnel on her own.
She trailed her fingers and power down the perfect smoothness of wall to her left even though she could have walked right down the centre and reached out with her power and got the same feel and result.
Her mother had had no training and the only thing her Mentor had been interested in was of the painful physical kind. Most of her experience with using her power before had come on the job and until she had met Ella she had thought, and been told, that being able to sense Vampires and Werewolves was magic and therefore a sin in the eyes of God and the church. But it was also a tool to be used to get back into His good graces.
Ella had helped her to see what she had always felt, that he was using it to control her with fear. And then there was Yoanna. Sinn smiled just thinking abo

Sitting upon the main couch in the library, Yoanna tapped an elegant finger upon the arm of it. It was a well-practised mask of calm that hid the disquiet she was feeling. Their Wolf was late and given what was at stake that was the last thing that any of them would have expected from her.They were worried.Beyond worried.Of all of them, Ella was the one expressing her feelings the most visibly and audibly and she muttered violent threats and paced around the room. She stabbed a finger at her cell phone, checking her voice messages, her texts, emails, calls, everything she could think of to make sure she hadn’t missed anything before trying to get through to Mel’s phone again.Sinn was the calmest of them all. At least on the surface. Knowing her as she did though, Yoanna could see every shift of motion, every tightening of muscle that had her eyes narrowing and lips tightening barely perceptibly as she sat upon the top rung of the steps tha
SINN Chapter 67: Day 23 (night)
Sinn watched intently using her power and the mirror behind the bar as Ella made her way through the crowded bar towards the corner where Mel was. She could feel the nervousness rise and fall through everyone as they recognised Ella and were instantly soothed by her smile and gentle greetings to those she recognised. That ability to charm and soothe, and that she was known, was why Ella had gone towards the group first and not herself or Yoanna.Yoanna could do the charm in spades but most of the Were’s in the bar didn’t know who she was or they would get wind that she was the Vampire Queen. As for herself, Sinn knew that she wouldn’t be able to go near them without them seeing quite clearly that she wanted to rip their spines out. Her lighter clothing could only conceal so much and right then it was helping her to blend in at the bar ready to act if, or when, action was needed.As Ella neared the table, Sinn watched as Mel saw her and her face and au
SINN Chapter 68: Day 24 (night)
Big and fat, the last missing sliver finally filled in, the moon hung low over the trees. A shadow darted across the almost too bright surface before flashing back down amongst the trees. The screech of the owl reaching Sinn’s ears through the open window along with the subtle scents of the night.Even if she couldn’t already feel the release in tension, the relative silence after all the howling that had echoed across the land and the owl returning to the air would have been sign enough that danger was over.Not that there wasn’t still danger around.There was always danger.Even though the moon would appear full for a couple more days, as far as the Wolves were concerned it had passed over from full to ‘waning’ and they were no longer under its sway forced to change.The predators that usually owned the night were free to claim it back and roam once more without finding themselves on the menu any more than they usual
SINN Chapter 69: Day 25 (night)
As she leaned back against the wall, Sinn closed her eyes and basked in the feel of the last rays of the sun dancing across her face before it dipped out of sight behind the trees with one last bright twinkle. Eyes still closed, she felt the gentle blanket of the night starting to settle across the land even though it was hours before it would go completely dark.Every moment of her life, no matter what the time, had held a potential for danger. Evil didn’t just live in the dark, she knew that. And in many ways, she felt more at home when the sun went down and the ‘monsters’ came out to play. There had just always been something about that moment of the day though. That moment when the light released its hold when it felt like something clicked over inside of her and she became even more aware of her surroundings and everything that called the night its own.Sinn had always thought it was something to do with the extra danger posed by the Vampires wak
SINN Chapter 70: Day 25 (night)
As Yoanna disconnected their call with May, Sinn reached across and plucked the remote control out of her hand. Wide, blue eyes met hers questioningly and turned to heat in the space of a heartbeat at what she saw.Crooking a finger, Sinn encouraged her over on to her lap. Placing her hands on her waist, she sighed as Yoanna knelt astride her lap and settled her weight right where those tight pants had been pressing and driving her crazy. Sinn’s hands fluttered in indecision against her waist. There was just so much she wanted to do she never quite knew where she wanted to start.Left hand sliding up, Sinn traced the determined but delicate line of Yoanna’s jaw round to the soft warmth at the nape of her neck where soft blonde hair tumbled over and teased her fingers and the back of her hand. Her right hand drifted down over the curve of her hip and strong thigh, following the trail of temptation laid out by the ridiculously high split of her skirt. Holding
SINN Chapter 71: Day 25 (night)
Ella struggled to hold back a gasp as Amanda answered the call. It had only been a matter of days since they had first spoken to her but she looked so utterly exhausted that she looked like she had aged ten years in that time. She felt sure that she already had the answer to the question on her mind but she had to ask anyway. “Is everything okay there?”“Rough night,” Amanda sighed brokenly as she ran a hand over her face. She tried to hold herself steady but could tell by the look in Ella’s eyes that she had spotted the trembling in her hand. “Just haven’t been able to sleep for a couple of days. One of the Police hit squads got too close and we had to do some quick work to relocate ten new Vampires we’d found since we talked last.”Yoanna sat forward urgently. “Is it okay now though? Is it safe or do you need to push things through faster to get everyone out?”“Actually, finding ten hidden
SINN Chapter 72: Day 30 (night)
Standing on the edge of the hole in the cabin floor, Sinn gazed down into the steady sunset glow of their power that still flowed up through the tunnel below. More by instinct than need, she reached out with a hand and probed gently at it with touch and power, feeling its welcoming warmth as it seemed to recognize her.She knew it wasn’t sentient as such and that it couldn’t actuallyknowher. But it was really hard not to think of it as such when it reacted now it did. Which to Sinn felt like a big dog rubbing against her and licking at her fingertips in greeting.Yoanna said it felt more like a big cat to her. And then she had smiled that enigmatic smile and pointed out that royalty sometimes kept unusual pets when Sinn had asked just how she would know what a big cat felt like. Sinn had finally got it out of her, after a bit of persuasion, that she wasn’t the kind to keep big cats or anything else chained and had taken great deli
SINN Chapter 73: Day 30 (night)
As Sinn left Yoanna’s former rooms she turned and looked at the entrance once more.There was still no malevolence coming off of anything but with every step across the room it had been harder and harder to deny the feelings she was getting off of the fabric of the tunnel. Harder to deny under the weight of what felt like its anxiety that it wasn’t more than just a little bit sentient.Just because she couldn’t hear or understand what it was saying didn’t mean it wasn’t trying to talk or feeling in its own way.“Thank you for looking after everything for her. Would you mind hiding it again until we can come back down later?”A feeling of excitement filled the air and Sinn saw the colours of their power pulse brighter through the wall. It understood her, or maybe it could just feel her, either way, Sinn felt it was happy because they would be making use of it again.As smoothly as it had disappeared under he
