“What’s bothering you, master? I inquired, eliciting another deep exhale from him. I realized that something was bothering him. Something he declined to disclose, not even to the council. “Is it that obvious? I am afraid of the heavy storm coming and I fear for the fate of our kind. I fear that our kind lies in an unknown paradox that could be wiped off by this storm.” He continued with a sigh. “Dimitri, I have a special task for you. You are the only one I can trust with this and you have to promise me that you will carry this task out yourself” He stopped and turned to face me. I nodded to him, sensing the intensity in his eyes. “I need you to find out who the chosen one is and when you find her. I want you to kill her.” Valor replied coldly. What I just heard was so unbelievable that I had to laugh. How come Valor desired the chosen one’s death? He was telling me this, but why? “I know you have a lot of questions but there was something I didn’t mention to even the council. The cho
At last we reached the vast training area. Every werewolf was practicing self-defense and fighting against other werewolves. It looks legitimate to me. There’s an enormous outdoor track with crazy obstacles, dummies to spar against, and what appears to be an archery area. Near the lake, werewolves in their wolf form were engaged in intense competition with one another. I saw Dimitri standing there listening to what Lance was saying him while wearing a basic white shirt and black trousers. His arms were crossed. They are accompanied by a girl as well. Since I hadn’t seen her around the pack before, I had no idea who she was. She was rather attractive and had short brown hair. Her eyes were two brilliant hazelbrown eyes. I didn’t think her outfit was training appropriate, but she seemed to be getting all the attention she wanted in a neon pink Nike sports bra and shorts that truly accentuated her best features. While she stood there grinning and laughing at whatever Dimitri was saying,
Isabella’s POV Without a doubt, it has been one of the happiest days I have had in a long time. Iris, Dixie, Alexa, Gabe, and Lance joined me for breakfast. I wish Dimitri could have joined us, but he has been quite busy these past few days taking care of Castellan Corp.-related issues. Gemini showed Iris and me around the pack properly after breakfast. We descended after she gave me anecdotes about the legendary Blood Moon pack and its predecessors and took me around the pack. She escorted me to a wide area where there were several houses inhabited by werewolves. It was behind a left-turning road, and I could make out a brook with a bridge over it. There are so many homes there, and some of the structures resemble werewolf dormitories. It’s possible that this is a larger tract of property than I even know. Something like two hundred? She also took me to the witches quarters of the pack, which are in a cave close to the ancestral cemetery. It was not surprising, according to Gem, tha
I growled, my lycan form threatening to be released, “Enough Celeste. No one will tell Isabelle anything about the curse or even that she is my mate until I say so. Do you understand?” Lance tried to soothe me with a hand on my back, but it didn’t work. She alone could. My mate’s gentle touch was the only thing that could calm me down. Celeste finally said, dropping her head, “I understand Alpha. Your will is my command.” Abruptly, the door was forced open, letting in a sliver of sunlight. Isabelle muttered beneath her breath, “Oh shit!” After seeing her, I could finally feel Luca relax; he had been restless since the council meeting. She was essential to our survival, much like air. “Mate,” moaned Luca. She laughed nervously, “Sorry, I’ll just come back when you’re not busy.” Her heart pounded rapidly in her chest, and I could hear it. The others stood up and bowed, saying, “No it’s okay, you can stay. We were done here anyway.” We were the only two there. I couldn’t stop admiring ho
Note that she’s human!” “Luca growled at me.” He was desperate to mark our mate and was becoming more and more uncontrollable.As if sensing the electricity between us, she hurriedly withdrew. “Good night.” She left with haste. How in the heck was I considering making her my secretary? If she gets this near to me again, I don’t think I’ll be able to resist my cravings. Nevertheless, having her so close to me would be beneficial. under my careful observation and defense.Isabella’s POV “How long do you anticipate the journey to take?As we walked through the pack’s garden, Iris questioned. There were innumerable brilliant plants and flowers in the breathtaking landscape, most of which had magical qualities like the healing gardenia flower. “Iris, I don’t know her. All Dimitri said was, “You better get ready because I’m going to Miami for business.” I mentioned that I wasn’t even permitted to bring anything. She laughed and said, “Well, it makes sense—he would need his secretary for his
The Alpha of the Shadow pack is extremely resilient, and they are a fierce and powerful group. They are pleasant people who are a little finicky about their customs, but they are completely cut off from the outside world—basically, my pack is the only pack with which they have an affiliation. By touchy, what do you mean? When I inquired, all he could do was smile. You will soon discover the truth. He said, gazing out the window, “We are here.” Miami was already where we had arrived. The city appeared incredibly vibrant, so Dimitri grabbed his coat and we exited the aircraft. We encountered a man who was waiting for us with a black RollsRoyce, and we boarded it for another journey.We eventually arrived at the pack borders after an hour of driving and listening to some sick tunes on the radio, and I couldn’t help but be enthralled with the splendor of the pack. I gasp when I glance out my window and say, “It is so beautiful.” The tall, gorgeous mountainside hill was adorned with dense,
Her elongated, lean figure appears. Her hair was brown and wavy, and she was attractive. She had on a black coat and black skinny pants. With a wicked smirk on her lips, she tilts her head to the side and looks at me with her dark eyes widening. Her voice is gruff but soothing at the same time. “I see that you came along with a friend.” She was in front of me in an instant. Her calm, dispassionate amber eyes looked at me as if they were trying to find my soul.Leaning on the table behind him, Dimitri introduces her, saying, “Regan, this is Isabella. Isabelle meet Regan, Alpha of the shadow pack.” But wait, isn’t she the friend Dimitri mentioned, Alpha Regan? Alpha Regan seemed like a man to me. “No way! She is the one?” she exclaims, turning to face Dimitri in a delighted and startled manner. He nodded to her. She faced me once again. She smiles and replies, “It is a pleasure meeting you, chosen one.” “Please settle in.”“You you aware of who I am?”May I ask her?” Yes, I was told by Dim
I steadily adjusted the black boxing bag gloves I had on my wrists, making sure to stand with my front foot facing the punching bag and my feet shoulder-width apart. I unleashed my punches, making sure to hit the punching bag hard and quickly. I planted my feet firmly when I threw the punches, and when I wasn’t, I moved aroused on my toes, laboring through my breathing. I’ve been doing this for a good hour, maybe even longer, but I can’t quite tell. Suddenly, I’m growing a little bored with the exercise. I could have enjoyed myself a bit more if I had been sparring with a real opponent. My subconscious, as usual, formed a well-built, sturdy figure, a monster that, after my life, looked virile and manly; he wore black leather pants and a black tacky jacket that looked like one formed from the heat and strain of battle in the medieval times; his face was covered in a golden mask, but the color of his eyes was red and dangerous, and the conviction in his eyes was as firm as every monster
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
