The Darkness Within Chapter 107
Maverick's POV I am one step away from the back door, which means I am one step closer to my salvation. But unfortunately, the universe loves to mock me. An Alpha and a Beta rudely step into my path, a massive, shit-eating grin plastered right across the stupid Alpha's face. “You are not dipping out on us that quickly. Nice try, though," EJ says, his fingers clamping around my forearm as he smoothly guides me away from the exit. "Come entertain us while our mates are held captive by their family.” I look over my shoulder, staring longingly at the back door. Damn it. I was so close to freedom. I knew I should have just drifted into the patio shadows the second nobody was looking. Brandon lets out a low chuckle when he catches me fiercely frowning at my ruined escape route. My eyes instantly snap to his, delivering a deadly glare that only succeeds in making him laugh harder. Thankfully, the two of them lead me past the section where the past and present Anderson Kings are currentl
The Darkness Within Chapter 106
Maverick's POV My jaw ticks as the asshole smirks, taking his sweet time to make his move. His smirk deepens as he folds his arms over his chest. I fight the urge to reach across the table and knock the smirk off his face. “Check.” I growl, my eyes snapping down to the board. My fingers squeeze the edge of the table so hard the wood groans under my grip. “What's wrong, Mav?” Coal asks, his voice dripping with amusement. “If you don't shut up, I am going to throw you through a wall.” “Didn't you say you were going to whoop my ass this time? What happened?” “It's kind of hard to fucking focus when the backyard is overrun by Andersons!” I snap, gesturing wildly toward the yard. “Your family is loud! They're like a bunch of wild animals. Seriously, it's like a zoo out here.” Coal lets out a loud snort. I glare at the board one last time and angrily slam my piece down into a new square. The sharp sound of Omega's screeching has our heads snapping up. Joey walks out the b
The Darkness Within Chapter 105: A Happy Fool
EJ’s POV It's been months since Ollie's nightmare ended, and he finally smiles the way he used to. Almost the way my bubbly Omega used to smile every time I saw his beautiful face.It's been months since he finally let go of the nightmare he had to endure. I know I’m still only touching the tip of the iceberg for how deep his mental wounds run, but they are healing. He is healing. And I am helping in every way I can. I am at his beck and call, and every moment he has needed me, I am there as quickly as I can be.I see it every day. My beautiful little prince is healing a little each day. And each day, I get a little more of that happy Omega back who couldn't wait to climb his mountain of a man… Their growls are supposed to sound fierce, I'm sure, but they are anything but that. They are… oh, hell! Who am I kidding? They are beyond adorable.Two Omegas and the Delta are currently tumbling in a wild pile of fierce adorableness. I couldn't possibly be more entertained, waiting to see w
The Darkness Within Chapter 104
Maverick's POV I don't know much about Alpha-Beta relationship dynamics, but I know a murder attempt when I see one.Chunks of grass fly up from Xavier's heels as he runs across the grass for his life. Damian is hot on his heels, looking less like a pregnant Beta and more like a hell-bent demon seeking vengeance. The entire party freezes to a halt as they watch the chaos, which disappears when Xavier darts into the tree line with Damian right behind him.Remind me never to let an angel touch my stomach. Or my brain. Or look in my general direction, I think to myself, rubbing the bridge of my nose. I turn away from the trees and scan the yard for the closest cooler so I can grab a beer. However, my attention is drawn right back to the woods when I hear Damian's furious voice getting closer. When I turn around, I am shocked to see Xavier burst from the tree line. His shirt is nearly torn entirely from his body, and the missing chunks of fabric are tightly fisted in Damian's hands.“G
The Darkness Within Chapter 103
Maverick's POV The Angel's face softened, and he seemed to walk lighter as he led me toward his Omega son. The Omega kept his toes planted in the grass and lightly swayed the swing back and forth while staring at the ground, paying no attention to the party going on around him. Cassian lifted his head as we approached, and I gasped. His eyes were startling, the most unique shade of blue I've ever seen. The blue is so light they're nearly white. A small smile tugs at Cassian’s lips when he sees his dad, but it quickly disappears when he looks past him and finds me. His lips parted as he quietly sucked a breath in. His wings quickly appear. Feathers that looked delicate and incredibly soft, but could become as hard as steel with a breath. They spanned out to each side, reaching past the ropes that connected to the swing, on each side of his shoulders.He's the definition of ethereal.If he's this beautiful, his sister must have been too, and I'm sure that's where my pretty little ang
The Darkness Within Chapter 102
Maverick's POV I've never seen this many people visit the pack. Everyone seems to be here, and all the attention is on me. I don't like it. I don't like the attention. I'm used to being alone. I'm used to everyone being afraid of me. I'm not used to so many people knowing about Shade, and I'm definitely not used to so many people excited to meet him, or excited that I'm here. I feel their eyes on me constantly; I can't get away from their stares. The ones with enough guts approach me, and the ones with almost enough guts linger close by, and gawk. It's annoying. I don't like it. “Maverick, my man!” A hand slapped down on my shoulder, and I stiffened. I looked down at the hand, raised a brow, then slowly turned my head and looked at Maddox. The Alpha simply flashed me a smile. Why are the Andersons so… Happy... All the time?! “That's an impressive hound! What kind of abilities do you have?” His eyes held curiosity, his grin held nothing but mischief. “Hm?” He wiggle
The Darkness Within Chapter 6 To Family
Ryder’s POVIt's quiet; it almost feels like I'm in her cottage, but I'm not. It doesn't smell like her. This place isn't decorated with her touch. I don't see her everywhere I look. Her garden isn't outside; nothing of her is here except the things of hers I brought with me. I look at them spread o
The Darkness Within Chapter 5 Loving his hybrid
Third Person's POV When Coal enters his bedroom, he comes to a stop when he sees his mate lying on the bed. His beautiful little hybrid lies on his stomach with a white sheet draped over his ass. His knees are bent with his feet in the air, ankles crossed, and his toes wiggling as he reads his book
The Darkness Within Chapter 4 A game of chess
Third Person's POV “Ha,” Maverick chuckled and rubbed his fingers over his mouth, a sign he was trying not to laugh. “What?” “Oh, nothing.”“Don't “nothing” me! What?” Coal said, his annoyance evident in his voice. “It's just, are you sure you want to make that move?”“Yes! What's wrong with it?
The Darkness Within Chapter 3 Maverick
Third Person's POV Maverick chuckled as the tall Alpha walked away. He brushed the front of his shirt off, trying to wipe her stupid floral scent off of his shirt. He didn't like the way it smelled. He hated flowers, and she reeked of them. You would have thought the little thing had been rolling a
