“Wait, Enki and Apollo are the same being?”
“All of the gods, even some of the goddesses are just other names Apollo has used over the millennia. There are only four celestial beings, Selene, Mab, Nyx, and Apollo as he has chosen to be called.” Rhazian responded.
“What happens if your curse is lifted?” I asked. Rhazian’s story had made it seem that it was possible. “What becomes of you?”
“I have tried over the years to have it lifted, going so far as to seek out witches that held no issue with my kind. I suppose that I would return to what I was before, what you would call a superhuman, but I’ve come to the

Tyler “Calm down darling. Destroying your office won’t accomplish anything.” Celeste cooed. She had found me breaking furniture in my office. Aro had called to inform me that he had delivered the girl to Rhazian and found wolves turned vamp. The missing towns and sudden silence from the pack I had been in contact with made sense now. The vamp had somehow turned them, something we were supposed to be immune to. Aro had informed me that I wasn’t bound by the contract they had signed with the self-proclaimed demi-god, his initial request that I stand down was simply so they could fulfil their side of the deal by delivering her. “You’re right, my love.” I sighed. “This doesn’t solve anything. I need to

Taylor Rhazian had insisted we stop so that I could tend to my needs and stretch my legs. We had been driving for hours without stop by the time he pulled into the deserted rest area. I wasn’t certain where we were going, but he seemed to be following an instinctual pull to the vampire he called daughter. I wondered what she would be like as I walked around the dimly lit path around the main building. He had told me she was turned at fourteen, being a made vampire had stopped her aging. She was nearly as ancient as my mate, though she was trapped in the body of a child. I made my way back to the car, satisfied that I had stretched my legs enough to continue our journey. As I drew closer, I saw Rhazian through the windshield, the driver seat laid back, his arm tossed casually over his eyes. I felt a twinge of guilt at

Rhazian Saveta showed Taylor and I to the suites that would be ours while we stayed in her home. I could tell that Taylor was bursting to ask me a million questions. The presence of human’s in the hidden away palace left her uneasy. I needed to rest and feed before I could comfort my mate. She had noticed how worn down the lack of blood had left me, but I continued to refuse to feed from her. She shared the blood of Apollo, and I had no way of knowing what that might do to me. Taylor started to speak and was interrupted by a light tapping on the door. A man dressed in just a loin cloth, appearing to be in his early thirties, entered the suite with a tray laden with delicacies, followed closely by my child. “I thought your

Tyler The mansion was empty. We had expected that when Aro delivered the girl, Rhazian would run. She may have tied the Fae’s hands with her contract, but Rhazian was smart, he knew we would come for him. My pack had a long history with the vamp, going all the way back to Cyrus, the first Alpha. The last of the warriors from the other packs had arrived in the late afternoon. Once we had a plan in place, we moved on the mansion where the first had been staying. The reports coming in made it clear the vampires he had created were on the move, but we still had hope we could pick up his trail. A small detachment headed towards each area vampire activity had been reported, while the most elite of the group joined my own warriors to search for clues in the mansion.&nbs

Miriam “I should have never allowed myself to be talked into that contract.” I seethed. “We need to find a way to break it, a loophole, something. These were-vamps are a threat and if Rhazian knows how to make them, there’s nothing to stop him making more.” “What else would you have done Miriam?” Aro pled. “She was going to kill us if we didn’t get her back to him safely. How were we supposed to know that type of monstrosity was possible?” “I don’t know, Aro. I really don’t, but I want Fredrick to start looking for a way out. Maybe the wolves can deal with these new beasts, maybe they can’t, either way, Rhazian can’t be allowed to continue his miserable existence

ApolloI stormed through the coven in a rage. They had not only tried to kill my daughter, but their actions had caused me to lose track of her. I had felt her, the moment she used her abilities to escape the witch. Whispering directions on the wind, I worked to lead her to a private place to meet me, but she had suddenly vanished from my sight. The only explanation was my sister’s involvement. I would deal with them, but first I needed to deal with my creations. “I send you the perfect tool for the mission I laid upon you at your creation, yet you tried to destroy her.” I roared as the coven cowered before me. “My lord, we didn’t know!” An older crone cried at my feet. “It has been our duty for millennia to destroy supernaturals. If we had known that we were meant to wield the power of yo

Taylor Screams echoed through the halls. My heart pounded as I hid behind the door in our room. Rhazian’s face was contorted in fear. We couldn’t see what was happening beyond our room, but the sound of footsteps continued to move closer as the screaming faded. Saveta crashed through the door, sending my flying to the floor. My mate scooped me into his arms, checking that I was uninjured. “Enki. He has come.” Saveta rasped. “Is there a way out?” Rhazian asked his child. “No, we are trapped.” She wailed. I trembled in my mate’s arms as we waited for my f

I found Rhazian and Saveta in the kitchen seated at the large dining table. Rhazian scowled as Saveta sat curled in the lap of a nearly naked, muscular male, her face buried in his neck. The image was a little jarring, my mate looking the part of a disapproving father, while his daughter lounged in the lap of her much older companion. “Good morning, my lady.” Saveta smiled, pulling her face from the man’s neck and licking blood from her lips. “I wish you wouldn’t do that at the table.” Rhazian huffed. “Especially in the presence of my human mate.” “Where else would I eat my breakfast, father?”
