“Can’t you speak anymore, or have you suddenly gone dumb?” She yelled with rage. “You seemed really chatty when you were practically throwing yourself at him just now. Who the hell are you to him?” I simply looked at her while she talked. She then noticed us from the balcony. I didn’t have the time or patience to explain why she thought the wrong thing. I shrugged, rolling my eyes at how pitiful this was. “I can assure you that I’m not Dimitri’s little whore, if that’s what you are worried about.” I detested conflicts, especially when they included men. It seemed pointless to fight over a man, that’s all. She snarled at me, “And you expect me to believe that.” This was starting to irritate me. I only ask that you keep out of her way if she is insane and doesn’t trust him. “Believe whatever you want, I don’t care!” I moved down the corridor, giving her a disdainful look, but she followed. I turned to face her as she tugged my hand. She yelled, gazing at me like a mad person. “Stupid hu
I stood there on the balcony, staring into the moon, I let my mind to stray to these ideas. I recognized Isabella’s voice as well as Rubi’s when I heard two female voices conversing. How in the hell was she back here? When I hurried back inside, Rubi was clinging to Isabelle’s arm and obstructing her progress. “Now what was this bitch doing?”I let out a frustrated groan.Although I knew Ruby would return today after her visit to her grandparents, I couldn’t believe she could go a whole minute without causing trouble. That insane woman yelled, glaring at my partner, “Stupid human! Listen here, Dimitri is mine, just mine alright. He belongs to only me! And I don’t want to even see you around him, you do not even dare to look at him!” She was completely bonkers to think there was a relationship between us. I was ready to take over and correct Rubi. She doesn’t have the right to imply that we are together just because I let her warm my bed. She was just one of my sluts; there was no relati
Isabelle’s POV Umm. I took a slow sip from Gemini’s newly brewed cup of coffee. I stopped looking as she blushed furiously, her cheeks going crimson, saying, “Gosh, it tastes so nice, Gem.” Since my arrival and the unpleasant scene involving Rubi, it has been more than a week, and I must say, things are going well thus far. Everyone, and by everyone I mean the entire mafia cult, community, town, and society,has been incredibly kind to me. I hesitated, uncertain about how to categorize this incredibly vast populace residing in the castle and several nearby cottages. Although I wasn’t very knowledgeable about mafias, I always assumed that they would be violent and corrupt, but that wasn’t the case. This was a lovely mafia. They treated everyone like family and looked out for each other, which showed me that they were excellent people who loved each other very much. It felt good to be a part of something, and I won’t deny that they all view me as a member of their family. to be a part o
Abruptly, my gaze caught sight of the figure near the door. “Isabelle!” I whispered to myself as my eyes grew wide. She continued to stare at me, presumably too preoccupied to realize that I was staring back at her. She had a captivatingly lovely appearance. She was putting on a long blouse, pale pink, that reached her hands. Her hair was pushed to one side, allowing me to see her smooth, white skin and just enough cleavage to make a marking. Luca was growling with desire, wanting to seize her and claim her as his. mine. She was hurrying to go to her room, so I suppose she recognized quickly that I had noticed her. “Alpha!” Alaric said as he followed me, trying to figure out what the issue was on the ground. We were dealing with an unusual situation that had never occurred before. Suddenly, creatures started appearing around every corner of Bournville. Something wasn’t right because this was out of the ordinary and should have alarmed you. It seemed as though they were all drawn to th
That was the first time the Red Circle coven had located me, three years later. When I got home from school that day, I saw him dead in a pool of his own blood, horrified. I knew she had discovered me again when I heard a hissing sound reverberating throughout the home. As she leaned closer to me, my aunt Delilah’s crimson-red lips formed a big smile that said, “Hello my little niece.” Beside her, slithering, is her pet basilisk serpent. She had that damn serpent by her side all the time. That was the one that killed my foster father and terrified him. She let out a terrified chuckle, “You thought you could run away from me forever. But you can’t outrun me. Your daddy couldn’t, your mommy couldn’t, and you also failed!” It seemed as though I was going through all of these memories again that I had worked so hard to conceal. Still, I understood that this was all a bad dream. I curled up on the floor and cried out, “No. No. No. No. It’s not real.” I repeated those words over and again a
At last, she opened her mouth to speak. She scoffed crazily and said, “What the hell are you doing? Don’t tell me you were stalking me?” She makes it seem eerie now. I was only keeping an eye out for her, not stalking her. There’s a big distinction. “And why would I stalk you? I believe you think too highly of yourself. You aren’t the only one who likes taking early morning walks too. I came out to clear my head and was as surprised to find you here.” I said the truth. She gave me a skeptical stare, clearly not buying my story. I had to quickly switch the roles. Trying to control my tone, I yelled, “And you? What are you doing out at this time? Don’t you know that it is dangerous around here, huh? What if you got hurt?” I have discovered that my little friend has an extremely short fuse. I couldn’t help but smile as the memory of the drama between her and Rubi flashed through my mind. If I claimed I wasn’t proud of what she did to Rubi, I would be lying. She was incredibly co
I was unable to reveal to her that they were vampires, so I continued to lie, saying, “I don’t know.” “But he sure looked like he knew you.” She responds. Once more, she was intent on discovering the truth, so I had to shift the topic. “Go quickly! We must leave this place. I grasped my mate’s hand and we began sprinting towards the pack home together. “More could be approaching,” I stated persuasively, and she nodded in agreement.Isabelle’s POV As we ran hand in hand back to the castle, a lot of questions raced through my mind: did those vampires know him? One of them even addressed him as Alpha, and the ease with which he dispatched them suggests that this wasn’t his first encounter with the recently turned vampires. What the hell was he? Many thoughts raced through my mind at once: the young vampires ran away, not from me but from Dimitri. What was it about Dimitri that scared vampires? There was a secret hidden about this whole place, and I realized now that it wasn’t just that
He smiled, exposing his big, sharp fangs as his eyes turned completely bloodshot. “Nice. Nothing still beats drinking straight from the source.” He struck the girl’s neck, right into the throbbing vein. She gave a little whimper as he continued to draw blood from her veins, until she turned as white as a corpse and collapsed to the ground. With his head still turned to look at the ground, Konstantine turned to face his servant. He would not have the courage to gaze at his lord in Primordial form. His servant simply nodded in comprehension as Konstantine gave him instructions to “alert the others. Tell everyone I want the girl alive.”His wicked sneer revealed his bloodshot red lips as he said, “Now let the vicious fun begin.”Isabelle’s POV As soon as we arrived at the estate, I walked straight to the kitchen to get a glass of water. I was still gasping for air from sprinting so hard. Leaning comfortably against the wall, Dimitri trailed in after me. He was quite difficult to read, so
Isabelle’s POV I saw Stefanie instruct the two new outlaws to spar against one another, saying, “MIKAYLA. YENNEFER. YOU TWO ARE NEXT.” I didn’t even try to sleep last night since I couldn’t. I couldn’t sleep because I kept thinking about the death threat I received. “Death will find you.” I literally thought about those words. I am aware that every assassin I have encountered who was sent by Red Circle enjoys using a sinister and enigmatic pseudonym name. Does the assassin who attempted to kill me last night have ‘Death’ as his alias? Yennefer and Mikayla fighting made me think. One of the new outlaws was Mikayla, a fiery fighter with a red hairdo. I saw her launch a vicious attack on Yennefer, who, to be honest, wasn’t even resisting. Even though she was slow and feeble for a wolf, she was still at the top of my suspect list. Do you recall how I had trouble sleeping the night before? Yes, I spent the entire night attempting to identify the possible identity of the red circle assassi
Dimitri’s POV Celeste told me, her voice dominated by terror, “Alpha, the lunar eclipse energy can be felt like no other. This will be the last eclipse before the eleventh blood moon, and I am afraid of the devastating dark tides it will bring.” Even I could sense the energy of the lunar eclipse, which was just two days away, crying out to and fuelling the darkness inside of me. Cessair was going to be more difficult to manage. The darkness with which I was cursed wanted to be known by that name. I looked up at Lance, who was also wearing a disappointed expression. “How about the lead we found with the shamans to break the curse?” I questioned. “It was another dead end. Alpha I fear that our only hope is Luna. According to the prophecy she would be our salvation, we have to believe that.” Alaric remarked, “Or our destruction. I say we find another way.” He needed to learn to respect my mate or I would have to teach him. I was getting frustrated with his loose speech. “What other way
And he ravishes my mouth once more after that, so I believe those lines are exactly what he needs to express his hunger upon me. He runs his fingertips down my abdomen until he reaches the delicate spot between my legs. “I’m going to fucking show you who’s the boss around here.” He smiles. I lay beneath him and felt his powerful hands grab hold of me. I was held and captivated by his ocean-blue eyes as they gazed into mine. He gave me his famous smile as he glanced at me.When I put my palm over his member, I could feel it become large and firm. His voice is filled with lust and desire for me as he continues, “I’m going to make sure you regret your decision.” Screw it! I wanted to feel bad about not urging him to stop. My tongue feels too large for my mouth, so I try to swallow but can’t. Dimitri runs his fingers along my lower lip as his gaze falls to mine. His touch makes me shudder, and his eyes soften just a bit. My heart was racing, and with out even considering it, I wanted to pu
Dimitri surprisingly awoke with a loud gasp. Immediately, his hazel eyes glowed and met mine. He looked at me with furrowed brows as I swiftly withdrew from his lips. I had waves of shame, but I didn’t give a damn. Now that he was awake, praise the moon goddess, that was all that mattered. He tenses up when Gabe embraces him tightly, taking him entirely by surprise. “Dimitri, you bloody bastard.” Gabe gives him a gentle shoulder punch. He gives him another hug for the hundredth time and pats her dark hair, saying, “Don’t you ever scare us like that again.” They were bound together by an unbreakable link.Krys grinned as Dimitri giggled softly, “I can’t make any promises that I won’t do this again.” Observing them both in this loving moment was pleasant. Hands on Dimitri’s shoulder, Lance remarked, “Good to have you back Alpha.” I smiled tightly at Dimitri as his eyes flitted to me. He kept looking me over from head to toe. His distinctive features were washed over with relief. Dimitri
My gaze is fixed on Dimitri in disbelief. “Don’t you dare lay a finger on her, or you will regret it!”. With death in his eyes, he threatens her, saying, “I promise you Saetani. if you harm her I’m going to rip you apart!” He was speaking the truth, and I could hear the anger in his voice. Saerah’s smile fades as she glances at him. She went over to him.“Isn’t this such a beautiful moment? Dimitri is finally exposing his true feelings for his mate. I thought you hated her but now you are even willing to risk your life for her.” Saerah laughed. “Shut up!” Dimitri bellowed angrily. His look was frightening. “I’m going to kill you, let the moon and the wind beat me witness. This is my promise to you Saetani!”. His eyes had a fiery appearance. They were on fire. Raising her long nails, Saerah exclaimed, “Are you impatient to die? Well, then, I’ll grant you your wish!” to Dimitri. “No,” I reply, as her lift her claws at my partner.“No!A rift formed on the ground as a result of my scream. M
I began to feel like my life was slipping away from me, so I pleaded, “Moon goddess, please help me.” I heard the ground and everything nearby tremble as a huge rumble erupted in the sky. “Isabella!” a growling voice says. The woman was flung off me right away. As I gaze at the person who saved my life, I gasp for air. I looked at my Lord. Dimitri was the one. However, was it truly him, or was it just a cruel joke from my drunken mind? He calls me “Isabella,” attempting to rouse me from my reverie.put my hand on my partner’s face. Finding it difficult to speak, I said, “Dimitri? Is that really you? Did you come to save me.” I see his thick red blood oozing out as he bites his palm. To get me to swallow it, he put his bleeding palm in my mouth. I initially objected, but he persisted and forced his blood into my mouth, so I gave in. He says confidently, “Yes Isabella, it’s me. Drink.” I silently comply, sucking and consuming his blood as if my life depended on it.was unable to stop once
I needed him now. But because no one was arriving, my calls went unanswered. A woman’s voice shouted, “CATCH HER!!!” from a distance.hurried over to the source of the sound. I noticed a group of werewolves, vampires, and witches. The woman in the dark robe was gathered around them. The woman under the cloak appeared to be in her early thirties, but I was unable to see her face clearly. How come they were all after her? There was a problem; I had the impression that I had seen this scene before. Yes, I do recall seeing this in my childhood nightmares, but I was baffled as to why. Since I was a child, this has plagued my memories, and I have never been able to comprehend why. I had no idea why I was having these dreams or what they meant. I knew it was more than a minor nightmare, but every time I tell my mother, she always brushes them off as nothing more. “Namek, how did you do this? You launched wars, slaughtered innocent people, and all for nothing. You committed serious crimes. Mor
I give in and suggest that we make a deal. “What do you want? Maybe we can both come to a compromise. I can offer you whatever you want, just name it.” Everybody would benefit from this. “Tempting, but I’m afraid I only want her. I was called and promised her precious soul. She is truly rare and special, I can feel it and I know you can too. Her soul would be delicious enough to satisfy me for years to come.” My pulse races. How dare she! Who is brave enough to promise her Mt mate? I was going to track out that individual and murder them all! She laughed as I sped forward,grabbed her by the throat, and slammed her hard against a tree. She grunts in anguish as I squeeze her neck, but a sly smile quickly appears on her face. “Don’t you dare touch her, she is mine!”. Her smile vanishes as I put a firm squeeze on her throat. “For someone who claims she knows my family so well, there is something we Castellan’s are known for and that is paying back our debts, we show no mercy to our enemie
Seeing her in this state was difficult. Vulnerable and asleep. I would be a crazy person if she were taken away from me, and I couldn’t bear to lose her. I must have been able to do something. With my full focus, Celeste began, “There’s only one way we can save her.” I grunted impatiently, “How?” Celeste asserts that before Saetani and the dreamscape consume her soul, someone must enter her subconscious and awaken her consciousness. If there was a chance to save Isabella, I would take it; it was worth the try.firmly said, “I’ll go.” For my partner, I was prepared to go to hell and back. Isabella had to live! I will not allow her to! “Alpha think this through. If you die the entire pack dies. We are all linked to you Sire.” Tilda had cautioned me. I shot her a glance, instantly cutting her off. She had little faith in me, which enraged me, but she was correct. Since they were all connected to me and shared my strength and power, my death signified the end of my pack. Nevertheless, I co
