Chapter 13

~ARDEN~

The blood on Elana's lips tore every thought from my mind.

I caught her before she met the ground, drawing her against my chest as another violent cough wracked her body.

Warm blood soaked through the front of my shirt.

My senses fixed on her face as the color drained from it with frightening speed.

"Elana," I called, steadying her with one arm while brushing the damp hair away from her forehead with the other. "Look at me."

Her eyes glazed with pain and confusion.

  • Claws And Blood: A Mate From Beyond    Chapter 16

    Chapter 16~ARDEN~Seven days.Seven days since Deadclaw almost took her from me.Seven days since my power returned.And seven days since I learned that getting everything I had spent centuries searching for meant losing the one thing I never expected to find.Her.The words of the Elders continued to echo inside my mind."Congratulations, Soul Reaper.""Thank the moon god. Your abilities have finally returned."I had waited centuries for those words. I had imagined the moment countless times.I had imagined the satisfaction. The relief…and the feeling of finally being whole again.But when they said it, my heart was empty. I felt nothing because the power and abilities was and were no longer what I was afraid of losing anymore.It was her.I stood before them, hiding every thought that threatened to expose me."The mission is close to completion," I had said.It was the truth and a dangerous one at that. My powers had returned, but not completely.Something was still missing. Som

    Chapter 15~ARDEN~Birds scattered into the night sky.The wolves within the surrounding territory answered instinctively, their distant howls carrying through the darkness before falling silent again.I skidded to a stop at the edge of a rocky cliff.The valley stretched endlessly before me, washed in silver beneath the full moon.My breathing gradually steadied but the anger hadn't disappeared.It had simply become something else.Acceptance.No matter how much I tried to deny it, the curse hadn't changed me.She had.She had changed me without demanding anything or asking me to become someone else.She had quietly and effortlessly found a place in a heart I had believed was incapable of holding anyone.She had walked into my life carrying wounds she never spoke about, and somehow she had become the one person I could not imagine losing.I lowered my head, closing my eyes against the cool night air.For the first time in a very long time, I didn't know what came next. As the wind s

    Chapter 14~ARDEN~I kept pressing hard against Elana's chest. Blood spread on my hands but I ignored the violent ache spreading through my body.The same terrifying truth echoed in my ears.She wasn't breathing.No, she couldn't be gone.Not when I’d only just begun to understand what she’d become to me.I closed my eyes and reached deeper toward the power buried within my own soul."If there's anything left... take it." Heat exploded through my veins as the violet glow returned, brighter than before, swallowing my hands until I could no longer see. For the first time in a long while, the power didn't hesitate.It answered me.The energy surged through me in a torrent, no longer slipping away the way it had moments ago. It flooded every part of my body before pouring into hers, steady and relentless.This time, the poison fought back. I felt it.Deadclaw writhed beneath her skin, lashing against my power with determination to consume every trace of it. Darkness spread through her

"Just breathe."She nodded weakly, though it was obvious every breath had become a struggle.My mind raced through every illness and every curse I had encountered over the centuries. None of them had begun this suddenly.Then my wolf stirred. Beneath the metallic scent of fresh blood, som

  • Claws And Blood: A Mate From Beyond    Chapter 12

    Chapter 12 ~ELANA~ The first thing I woke to was the silence. For the past two months, silence had become something rare in this house. Arden was usually the first thing I saw every morning, either reading at the edge of the bed, making coffee downstairs, or standing by the window with that distant look in his eyes as though he were listening to something only he could hear. Today, there was nothing. I pushed myself upright, blinking against the morning light spilling through the curtains. "Arden?" I called softly but there was no answer. I climbed out of bed and wandered through the bedroom before checking the bathroom. Empty. By the time I reached the kitchen, the coffee pot had already gone cold. "He left early…" I murmured to myself. My phone lay on the counter where I'd abandoned it the previous night. I unlocked it with a small flutter of hope. Nothing. No messages or missed calls. A tiny knot formed in my stomach. That wasn't like him. My thoughts drifted back t

    Chapter 5~ARDEN~Elana’s eyes shot out of their sockets, like they were ready to jump out at any minute. Maybe because of the matebond, but I could feel her heart race… with a pump that didn't feel normal. How was it possible for her to feel fear on an entirely different level? She was so low t
