ELIAS POV:I was worried; my Vixen was sick, terribly sick. I knew it; everyone knew it, but she wouldn’t admit it. After Lani, she got worse; she always looked so weak and pale that she passed out a few times. I didn’t know how to help her; she was a demon, not a werewolf, so I didn’t know how to help her if she didn’t tell me.I was in my office, trying to do pact business. But my thoughts kept going to Mila and her health. What the hell was wrong with her, and how could I help? It made me feel worthless. What kind of alpha, a king, can’t even care for his mate? What kind of a mate does that make me? I ran my fingers through my hair in frustration, then the phone rang.I looked at it, but I hesitated to answer it for some reason. I felt a dark, cold shiver run over me the longer the phone rang. Finally, I picked up the phone from the receiver and answered it.“Hello?” I answered.“Are you happy with yourself?” the deep voice on the other end responded. His voice was cold and dark an
MILA POV: As I took a shower, I could feel Eli’s eyes on me. I just sighed. I knew he was worried for me; I could hear it in his voice and see it on his face. But things were going to change. He was back; I didn’t know how but he was. “If you’re not going to shower with me, please don’t just stand there staring at me,” I told Eli, and I heard him sigh. “Call me if you need me, ok?” he said, worry lacing his voice. “I will,” I responded. “I love you,” He told me again before walking out. I just hummed a response. I loved him; I truly did. But I couldn’t express it right now, and honestly, it was for the best. I couldn’t risk expressing any type of affection towards him. I didn’t want him to end up like Adam, so I will keep my distance, for now. I listened to him sigh sadly, then I heard him close the door behind him as he left. The hot water that ran through my hair and down my body felt blissful. Even though I was alone in the shower, I knew he was there, watching and waiting.
DARIA POV:After my mother went upstairs I quickly finished my pancakes and then left for grandpa Luies. I liked traveling between the Empires seeing the different how they dressed and how they interacted with each other.Gabriel drove us and I sat and just waited. Honestly I worried if I should bring Gabriel with me or not. His relationship with my grandpa, even though they settled their differences you could still feel some tension in the air whenever they were in the same room together.I just looked at him as he stared ahead, his eyes on the road. “Why are you staring at me?” He asked never taking his eyes off the road.I just sighed. “Are you sure you're going to feel comfortable at grandpa Luie?” I asked him and he just chuckled.“Awww your worried for me?” he said in a baby voice as he reached over to me and pinched my side.“Well duh,” I laughed “If my guardian angel dies who will protect me from my psycho brothers.” I whimpered in fake fear.“I’m sure you’ll find someone.”“A
THIRD PERSON POV:Just then, a faint, sad howl rang out through the air, and they all looked up. They all knew that strong, powerful howl. It was Axl, the alpha king himself, crying.Daria looked up into the sky, she could feel the sadness running through the bond. However, she wasn’t worried or scared, instead, she felt oddly calm.“Something's wrong; we need to go back home,” Gabriel said as he started to panic and get up from his seat.“Can you let me talk to my granddaughter,” Lucifer said looking directly at Gabriel “Without you?”Gabriel looked at Daria, and she gave him a small smile. “Can you wait in the living room?”Gabriel stared at her intensely for a moment before giving her a sharp nod. Then he looked over Lucifer and Ciel. Turned and walked away.Another howl faintly echoed throughout the air.Lucifer just looked up into the air, a small smile on his face. “And so it begins.”“You know what going on don’t you?” Daria asked him. Her eyes narrowed at him, and his smile wi
1283DANTE POV:It’s been a week, and I was still in pain, but at least I wasn’t throwing up anymore. I haven’t gotten a visit from Mila, and as the days went by, I found myself missing her more and more.My fiance Gemma walked into my room. She carried a tray as she slowly made her way over to me. I just watched her every movement, and I couldn’t help but compare her to Mila. While Gemma’s skin was beautifully fair, Mila’s was a beautiful olive color. Gemma’s hair came a little past her shoulders and was jet black; she always kept it tied up. But Mila’s hair reminded me of the moon; her beautiful silver hair always seemed to shine, never seemed dull. Mila’s body was full of curves, and I loved to run my hands over every inch of her body. However, Gemma’s body, however beautiful she was, her body wasn’t nearly as curvy as Mila’s.Mila was never shy about her body; everything she wore was always so very revealing, showing a lot of skin. But Gemma, like a good younger woman, always cove
THIRD PERSON POV:As soon as twins Damen and Deo heard that heart-throbbing howl, they hurried to their parent’s room, running into their father’s Beta Ryan along the way. They knew something was wrong. And the nervous look on the beta's face just proved them right.“What's going on, Ryan?” Damen asked, but the frown on Ryans' face deepen.“I'm not too sure, but I know it has something to do with your mother,” he told them right as they made it to the Alphas room door. They didn't wait and wasted no time in opening the door.As soon as they opened the door, and automatically their nose scrunched up in disgust. There was a faint odor in the air, it was a smokey odor. The common smell of a demon, but this, this smell was different. They didn’t know how, but it was different.What they all saw was Alx growling as he paced the room. His nose was high in the air as they tried to catch any whiff of his mate. But there wasn't any, all there was, was the scent of a demon, an unfamiliar demon.
ELIAS POV:“Let her go Axl!” I argued with him. But I was trapped. Stuck in my mind sitting in front row seats as my wolf choked the life out of my pup.“Not until she tells us where our mate is,” he argued. His grip only tightened on her neck and I watched her face turn colors. Her grip on my hand was becoming weaker and weaker and I can feel her heartbeat start to slow.“You're going to kill her!” I yelled at him. I was trying to gain control I really was. But his emotions and his need to find his mate was overpowering my need to save my own pup.“Whatever it takes to get our mate back and if I have to sacrifice a pup then so be it.” he told me.I saw the look in Daria’s eyes when she heard him say that. Her eyes went wide with fear and then sadness took over as her eyes started to water and tears dropped from them.The look on her face broke my heart. She was heartbroken to hear her own father say that he would gladly take her life for his mate. She dropped her hands; it was like s
“Do you remember Mila? Do you remember how I came to be? How you help create the being that I am today; do you remember? No? Then Let me remind you. Let me remind you why you're mine and I’m yours. Why you’ll always be mine and I’ll always be yours no matter what.”1283MILA POV:I couldn’t let this happen; this couldn’t happen. He couldn’t die because of me. Guilt settle in on me as I realized that his death would be on my hands.All because of love.Before I knew it, being with Dante wasn’t just about gaining energy anymore. I’d started to grow feelings for the mortal, and that was something that was never supposed to happen. But it did and now his life is on the line. I cradled his head in my lap as I watched the waves crashed against the shore. Tears dropped from my eyes and I let them.At least I got to see him in his last moments. There was nothing I could do now.I could feel eyes staring, burning a hole in the back of my head and I just knew who it was.“What do you want fathe
