I blink rapidly whipping my head in Leo's direction, he had a firm grip on the glass that was just in my hand but he didn't hold it for more than a few seconds before he hissed. The glass dropped to the ground shattering into a million pieces steam rolled off of the ground from where the liquid had ended up. Leo was looking at his hand and as I jumped to my feet I could see his fingers were bright red. Had I not been consumed by the rage caused by our game of questions and other peoples actions I would have cared more that he was injured. He looked back at me his eyes were wide as he took a step back from me where I was now standing. The glass crunching under the rubber of my slippers didn't stop me from moving forward to him ready to push this mountain of a man on his ass "WHAT IN THE FUCK IS YOUR PROBLEM!" I poked my finger into his chest making him back off the cement pad. His hands were raised up in defense and I could see his hand was fine now "I-I-" He stammered but I gave him
The tray in my hand felt like it weighed 100 pounds as I watched the double doors flutter back and forth making the seal between it rub gently from the force of the noise on the other side. Mike who had been behind me didn't stop walking towards the doors despite the horrendous sound that was coming from behind them.He put his shoulder threw them while I half expected to hear him yell or scream in panic, I herd him laugh instead. My feet moved without my approval to the doors still holding the tray in my hands, I was ready to use it to protect myself if I had to. Once I pushed threw those doors to see what made Mike break out into laughter I blew out the breath I had been holding"You old man are a menace, I should have known" Leo was glaring at Mike threw gritted teeth fist clenched apparently Leo doesn't like to be embarrassed, who knew.Mike sat the trays in the warmers and closed the lids back down on each of them before turning to take the tray form my hands, my eyes were still s
I knew having Leo on my side was the best option but I still didn’t know how much I could tell him that would stay between us, I wanted to trust him I really did but besides Krishna I’ve never had someone I could trust whole heartedly I found myself constantly torn between spilling my guts to him or keeping my lips sealed. I don't know why I'm so damn worried about the possibility of Leo being forthcoming to Connor with the information I was about to tell him of Kris and I’s gift unfortunately no matter how drawn I’ve become towards him since Dorian passed I was also giving heed to some information I acquired while eavesdropping. I’ve recently discovered Dorian had a flair for smoke and mirrors causing me to spend far to much time in my head attempting to figure out what was true vs what was a lie. So up until now I never gave much thought to a phone call I over herd him having on one of the few nights he was home since his phone was on silent I never herd it ring but I felt hi
Thousands and thousands of books were lined up on huge wooden book cases not only were they above me on a balcony but the walls were lined in the same huge book cases shelves upon shelves packed full of different colors and thicknesses of books. Some of these massive book cases were vertical in the center of the room also lined with more beautiful books on their shelves. Glass windows were at the very top of the roof line letting in a perfect amount of natural light. The smells that filled my nose were heavenly all these old paper pages packed in the room permeated of leather and ink hints of oak lingered from the massive wooden shelves. I scanned my eyes above me along the perfectly carved shelving that housed them so many different shades of colors were on the spines none had names probably rubbed off over the years of use. Large solid wood tables with comfortable looking chairs were strategically placed throughout the main open area it was like a whole library was picked up and pl
It was late afternoon by the time Leo and I made it back from lunch with Kris, I wish I could say she took my findings well but she didn't. I told her Leo had a friend who had a few books related to twins and shared genes but they didn't have any information on telepathy, dream sharing emotional auras or blockages. My hope was to convince her that some twin abilities just couldn’t be figured out, I mean we never told anyone so maybe others had felt the same? I couldn't bring myself to openly tell her all about the supernaturals we were surrounded by let alone all the actual information I had just found out on them. Unfortunately it I wouldn’t have that luxury after what she said to me at lunch, she had the whole conversation changing away from our twin issues that now festered a whole new assortment of problems that have rendered me speechless.*Flashback to 3hours ago*We picked up Kris and took her to a small restaurant on the out skirts of the city, even with Leo present Kris was de
Theodeus Castellanos sat at the bar top engaging with Angie like they were long time friends, I’ll admit she was definitely putting on a show though her laughs were airy and she touched his bicep ever so slightly while she found humor in whatever they were conversing about. I know she wasn’t trying to be but to most women her actions could easily be misconstrued. To me now that I knew her so well she came off mostly as extremely charming, her interactions would have been the same if it were a woman she was sitting with. Her way of hospitality didn’t bother me anymore it was Theodeus presence here that irked me. Watching his body language at the as I turned towards them so casual with her like old friends I could tell the moment he acknowledged my presence his back muscles tensed under his shirt as he adjusted himself to sit straighter, his elbows were bent to rest on the bar as he intertwined his fingers pressing his thumbs together keeping his head turned to Angie as they spoke back n
First and fore most I want to thank each and every one of you for reading my book and giving it a chance, I cannot put it into words how much it means to me that you all take the time to look into my world that I am creating! I hope you are all connecting with my characters and grow to love them as much as I do excitingly enough my lovely readers we are only just beginning :)Now to the second biggest reason I am posting this is because if some of you have noticed chapter 19 is missing and unfortunately it is a important piece of chapter 20 but it was never released from review when I posted it on Monday the 1st. I have since reached out to my editor and once it is available my hope is you all will get the notification and it will also be in its correct place, I can apologize over and over but unfortunately it’s not in my hands anymore so I do not know when you will have access to it. SO with that being said I hope this small glitch doesn’t discourage anyone from continuing their read
laying on my futon couch scrolling on my phone it’s been over an hour since Theo walked me the rest of the way to my office and since then my mind has been replaying our passionate encounter, I was swept literally off my feet by him but I couldn’t wrap my head around as to why. After going in circles in my mind I eventually got restless and decided to do something I haven’t done since I was in high school. Getting up from where I was laying I dug threw my bags and found a sports bra along with a pair of black tight leggings slipping them on and my sweater I tied my bright colored Nike trainers on and slipped out of my office and down the hallway to the door to the back portion of the property. I was severely out of shape but I figured jogging was like riding a bike you never forget right?I knew going outside in the middle of the night was probably not the best idea but Leo being my local werewolf meant he was out probably out there and there wasn’t a single thing I could think of tha
