Adopted By The Werewolves

"Probably an attack," says Tyrus with his eyes frantically scanning the direction from which the scream had come, "Come on."Without wasting another second, all three of them start running at top speed in the direction of the voice, all their senses heightened and on alert. They looked like three strong gusts of wind winding their way through the trees. Soon they hear a deep howl. They know now that it was surely an attack and the Lycan was inviting the other members of his pack to join in. They had to reach there before his mates. Otherwise, it would be almost impossible to save whoever was attacked if by any chance they were still alive.Finally, they see a werewolf hunched over a girl who looked like she was still alive. Brent turns around and notices that Damion had transformed into a wolf and was ready to attack."We will take care of our wolf pal and you save the girl. Take her to the place we stayed in two days ago, we will meet you there," says Tyrus and goes on to transform a

Brent is looking at her. It was such an effort to move away after the kiss. He knew that she was no longer just the girl he had carried to safety two years ago. She was no longer only a friend. She meant a great deal more to him now. He wanted to be a lot more to her as well. Everyone starts moving around again, towards the dance floor, some towards the food and drinks. Brent notices Tasha and Emily walking toward them and snaps out of his reverie. He realizes that this cannot happen. It is not appropriate. He cannot get carried away by his feelings for Lilia. She doesn't even know who he is, and he is sure that if she ever learns the truth, she would not want to associate with him in any way. He takes a step back from her, "I need to make an important call. I'll be back in a couple of minutes." He walks through the crowd of people, all laughing, chatting, dancing, and drinking, out into the front lawn. It is much quieter here. He walks around to the left of the building, leans agai

Tyrus looks at Lilia as she goes up the stairs. Once she had left, he let out a deep sigh, placing his head on the backrest of the couch and covering his eyes with his hands. What a day it has been!"Some day huh," says Damion, "by the way, did you know the vampire who attacked Lilia?""I think I do, and I have been trying to remember where I've seen him, but I can't recall." Brent pauses and then says, "Anyway, tell me about what you guys saw. Anything worthwhile?""Very," says Tyrus as he sits back up, all alert, "it was one of those full moon ritual attacks, just as we had suspected, but they weren’t Carl’s. It was some other clan. You know what this means”“That there is one more clan which has joined the ranks of Carl,” says Brent in a tone of disgust.“Exactly. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have been allowed to hunt in the area.”“This isn’t turning out to be a good show,” says Damion, “the more werewolves that join Carl, the less we have left to persuade otherwise, and the numbers o

Lilia wakes up the next day but takes a few seconds before opening her eyes. She has a hard time believing that yesterday night was not a dream. But then she feels Brent's shallow and comfortable breathing right next to her ear. She turns around, opening her eyes and feeling like small explosions are happening in her chest. The shuffling wakes up Brent. He looks at her and smiles. She smiles back. "Had a good sleep?" he asks in a soft voice."The best!". She kisses him lightly on the lips.They spend a few more minutes snuggled together and then Brent asks in a serious tone, "So, what have you thought?""About what?""About us...""I told you, Brent, I like you. A Lot. I want to be with you and I don't care if you are a vampire or a zombie!" He gives a shaky laugh and then begins, "But..""No buts or ifs or maybes," Lilia replies firmly, cutting him off."Okay Okay... so how do you plan to tell the others?""We'll tell them in a few days. Let me first get used to the feeling that I

Esther had planned this moment for quite some time. She had deliberated on how to approach the topic for weeks. It was very important for her to get what she wants and she was glad that the information she had just given them had caught them off-guard. She could see the shock etched on the faces of all three men. She did not break the silence. She wanted the gravity of the information she had to sink in. It had, after all, cost her so much to know the truth."You know what the second ingredient is?" Brent says slowlyIt was less of a question and more of a contemplation, but she answers anyway, "Yes"."Do you know where it is?" asks Damion."Not quite. But I know how one can find it.""And you are willing to give us this information merely in exchange for being a part of the plan.""Yes.""But why?"Because defeating Carl is very personal and important to me and I know that I would not be able to manage all of it alone. So, I want to be a part of a group of people who have the same go
