Bellatrix Sinclair“You are not my master.” I rebuffed sharply, yanking my hand away.Rubbing my thighs together that were greeted by dampness. I stood by my words although I would wallow in self-loathing another day. In this moment, I was completely entranced by his malevolent beauty.The personification of darkness in the flesh.“Is that so?” he returned, his orbs glittering with excitement, “I think you might like it.”Arching a brow as my jaw tensed, ‘Why would I want you to control me when your kind has been doing it for centuries.” I seethed, his ignorance only fuelling my hatred.Lazarus’s regarded me through lowered lashes, his callous fingertips caressing my thighs, stretching higher until my dress bunched at the waist. His eyes darted to my lacy panties, “Lies will get you cursed Bellatrix.” He inhaled, shutting his eyes for a second.When he opened them, pupils dilated as they pierced my own. It was magnetic, hot-blooded – dangerous. If I touched the flames, it would destro
Bellatrix SinclairHis features hardened ominously, an eerie silence between us as I refuse to answer. His eyes became a bottomless pit of destruction, controlled in its cataclysm as he examined the bruises. Gently brushing his knuckles against my cheek, the touch soft and delicate like a feather.“Who did this to you?” he asked again in a low voice.Pressing my lips tightly together, swallowing the names. I’m not a fool to think Lazarus cares about me, I’ve begrudged the notion of others saving me. Only I can save myself and I’ve handled the bullying thus far. “None of your business.” I grit through my teeth in response, not meeting his gaze.“I’m giving you one more chance, tell me.” he demands aggressively, “Tell me Bellatrix.”I scoff, frustrated. “I don’t need to tell you anything, it’s none of your business.”I knew my place with Lazarus, a human mate that he only saw as a slave to his desires. “The deal was to give you an heir, not to give you my secrets.” I said, my voice asse
Lazarus de Loughrey“You have a human mate.” Her voice laced with sweet venom, “Now you will produce an heir.”“Time is ticking.” He threatened with a polished tone. “Lazarus, this is your final chance.”“I will fulfil my duties.” I replied mechanically.The other female releases a deranged laugh, her high-pitched voice grating on my nerves. “You’ve said that before. I heard human mates’ fertility skyrockets when mating with a wolf. It’s perfect for breeding, even you can’t fuck this up.”Their voices echoed within the pavilion, their faces concealed within the shadows, they were known as The Syndicate. Comprised of seven Elders graced with immortality, unknown to the public and I was never granted the privilege of seeing their faces or their names.Everyone assumed I wasn’t governed by rules, and that I had access to immeasurable power without consequences. I answer to The Syndicate, I follow their rules and regulations without any voice of my own.I detested the Syndicate, they deem
Bellatrix SinclairStudying the collar closely in the mirror, built of thick metal that wrapped seamlessly around my throat. I felt suffocated the more I stared at it, curling my fingers underneath to search for anything that would unlock it. At the base of my throat I felt a textured square, it felt like a microchip.Lazarus wasn’t lying, there is a bomb in this collar.In the weapons departments, there were many instances that I had to deal with bombs therefore I knew how to get out of this. If I could get the chip out without triggering the bomb, then the collar will unlock automatically.Rummaging through Lazarus bedroom and bathroom for anything that could pry the chip out of the collar. After a solid ten minutes of nothing, I opted for the letter opener at his nightstand. The edges were still sharp, I had to be careful that I don’t apply too much pressure and accidently plunge it into my throat.Returning to the mirror and sliding the letter opener between the gap in my collar u
Lazarus de LoughreyRunning my hand along her soft thighs, her exquisite body made for my ruin. The taste of her submission was sublime, purring as her muscles laxed under me. That insatiable fire that roared to life for her, desperate for her like an addict.Staring into those captivating sapphires that were clouded in passion, lids drooping from the multiple orgasms. Bellatrix’s bruised lips were too enticing, sparks igniting on mine as they craved hers. Pressing my lips against her neck, sucking and biting until I’ve marked her even more. A buzzing under my skin as she moaned in ecstasy, obeying as I squeezed her perfect breasts.“Lazarus.” She moaned softly.I want to fuck her endlessly, I want to fuck her so hard that her pretty pussy cannot handle anymore, I want her soaking these sheets again and begging for me even when she’s too sore.Bellatrix exhaled. I fucked her almost three times and I still wanted more. She gave me control of her body, spreading those delectable thighs
Bellatrix SinclairI stare at the skimpy maid’s uniform on the bed, blinking profusely to make it disappear. He really thought of everything to make it even sluttier, thigh-high socks and chunky black heels. Lazarus strolled out of his walk-in-closet, fully dressed in a three-piece suit.He looked sexier than I anticipated in midnight blue, emitting this powerful aura that demanded your attention.Shaking my head, I cannot be this weak in his presence. “What the fuck is this?” I pointed.“That is what you are required to wear.” He responded casually.Narrowing my eyes, “Are you insane, this outfit reveals everything. I can’t even bend down without my ass showing.”Lazarus flashes that twisted smile at me. “That will be a sight to behold.”“Lazarus.” I snapped.His obsidian orbs shimmered with mischief as he stepped towards me, “I think you are forgetting your place here. You are my slave Bellatrix; you serve me in any way I see fit and for now – I want to see this beautiful body in th
Bellatrix SinclairThrowing my arms around Colton, inhaling his familiar scent of eucalyptus. He stumbled, taken aback by my actions. “I’m so happy to see you.” I whispered, blinking back tears.Giving him a tight squeeze before letting go, meeting his eyes that were riddled with confusion. Colton was silent and stunned, “Bellatrix.”“You have no idea how happy I am to see you.” I beamed, “I didn’t know you tended to the King.”“On some occasions.”Swallowing the lump in my throat, “I miss you so much.” Until now, I hadn’t realized that I’ve been suppressing these emotions of dejection and loneliness. Mourning for my life before, when my goals seemed within my grasp.Colton’s gaze softens, almost like he could read my mind. “I miss you too, it’s not the same in the infirmary without you. Too quiet for me now.”He loved his solitude of peace, a bubble that I burst on multiple occasions because he was my only real friend in this fucked up world.I frowned, “I didn’t have time to tell yo
Lazarus de LoughreyWe were summoned to the green district by the Alpha of Nightclaw Pack. Which led to my current predicament, staring at the three perpetrators cuffed and chained to the ground, kneeling at my feet.“You must have realized the consequences of your actions.”“Yes, My King.” They spoke in unison, detestation in their tone.I’ve been aware of the human rebellion since the beginning, what started as a rumour has quickly manifested into a full-blown army.These three were caught by Alpha Edward Milton and he informed that they committed treason by storing equipment and weapons in an unknown storage unit. Before I arrived in Nightclaw’s Palace, assessing what they had been stockpiling.Firstly, the weaponry they had stolen were from Kingdom’s soldiers stationed at the borders, essential survival gear for the front lines and yet these humans managed to steal it without anyone noticing.“They were planning to use it at the next genetic screening.” Edward informed.“A demonst
Bellatrix SinclairPushing out of the seat, a surge of urgency and panic that had my heart racing. “What are you doing here?”Bonnie’s mouth curved into a genuine smile. “It’s nice to see you again Bella.”Shock bolted down my spine, hitting every nerve so that I couldn’t budge. I prided myself on being an expert at reading her emotions, Bonnie’s features were always stiff when she wore her mask. This time, her expression was relaxed and sincere.I glared at Colton, seething. “What the hell have you been doing. Did you bring her here? Are you insane?”She frowned; her eyebrows drew together. “It’s okay Bella, Colton saved me from the era of my ways.”Grinding my teeth, stricken with confusion that I barely registered Bjorn’s voice. “Let’s leave the sisters to catch up, Colton.”Colton nodded, flashing a smile accompanied by a softened gaze. “I’m happy your here Bella, fighting with us.”Bjorn patted his shoulder, jerking his chin towards another booth on the opposite end. “We will be
Bellatrix SinclairI never envisioned the taste of freedom would be this bittersweet.Folding my arms across my chest, surveying my surroundings as we pass through a tunnel, darkness seeped into the car, goosebumps prickling my flesh.“Are you always like this?” Bjorn’s asked, casually.“Like what?”“On edge.”Turning my head to face him, squandered in the shadows that I could barely make out his expression. “I’m cautious. It’s only natural since I have no idea where we are going.” I responded, inserting a sliver of truth but unwilling to share more details.He chuckled, the sound airy and breezy. “That’s understandable considering what you have been through with that monstrous creature.”I pressed my lips tightly together, biting my tongue to suppress the rebuttal. His tone woven with disdain when speaking of wolves, I could relate in the past, but everything changed. I’d be detesting myself and Melody didn’t deserve that hatred when she saved me from Thomas.Swallowing the painful e
Bellatrix SinclairMy mind was spiraling, thoughts scrambled by uncertainty while his words played on a loop. My voice barely above a whisper, getting lost in the chaos. “What do you mean?”Bjorn leveled me with a cold stare, a sharp blade that cut through space. “Your father created the resistance; he fought for a cause and was killed for it. You want to defend these monsters, but the worst is standing next to you.”I slowly turned my head stiffly, peering into his eyes for the truth. “Is this true?”Lazarus’s jaw tensed, a storm brewing in his eyes, clashing of rage and a heavy heart. “Are you really going to listen to him?” He snapped. “The resistance has taken lives, long before today.”“That’s not what I asked.” I snarled, clenching my teeth. “Did you kill my father?”His breathing accelerated and my heart hammered against my ribcage. Lazarus’s lips thinned, eyebrows knotting tightly together. “I.....I will do anything to protect my people.” He declared steely. “I will do anythin
Bellatrix SinclairStatic thundered in my ears, shifting to white noise. A sharp pain that pierced my muscles, a pounding in my skull as if splitting my brain in half. I barely managed to open my eyes, distorted vision that slowly seeped into chaos.My eyes stretched wide-open, shock tearing through me as I watched the explosion of madness. Pushing onto my knees, fire igniting in my joints and searing my muscles. Only moments ago, I was being crowned Luna. The joy and uncertainty of the future was obliterated, crumbling into complete ruins before my eyes.An excruciating burn tore through my lungs, crushing my chest with every breath. “Lila.....Lazarus.” I rasped, searching for them upon the broken stage but I couldn’t find them past the rubble.The menacing roars from the wolves reached my ears, drawing my attention to the perpetrators. They were covered in black from top to bottom, exposing only their eyes devoid of humanity. There was
Bellatrix Sinclair“Are you nervous?” Lila quizzed, pocking her head through the curtain and scanning the crowd like I’ve been doing every five minutes. “Who are you looking for?”The judges sat on the stage, on the far right. Lazarus and Donovan were seated next to each other, calm and composed, as if yesterday didn’t happen. Animosity brimming to the surface, only visible to the ones who knew the truth.My chest tightened, agony bleeding from the heart strings that tied us together. No one would guess that he confessed his pain last night, the betrayal of his family became an infected wound that would never heal.Suddenly, those pitch-black orbs locked on mine. “I can feel you worrying, Ma Cherie.” His silvery voice teased. “Focus on yourself, the voting is drawing to a close in a few minutes.”Flashing him a blank stare as I frowned. “Are you okay? It cannot be easy.”
Bellatrix SinclairA king should always suppress their resentment, but there is only so much one could handle before it completely devoured their soul. There was no justice in this world, and he knew that better than anyone, The Syndicate managed to take away the only family he had left.Agony chewed at his heart and despair ripped his flesh apart. Lazarus was being consumed by a blackhole of desolation, falling deeper into the abyss until nothing remained but pure rage. None of us knew his wraith, however I suspected it would be a catastrophe for everyone.He disappeared after The Syndicate dismissed him, usually he would have scolded me for breaking the rules. Except, he instructed Christian to escort me back to the palace for the participants. He was trying to endure his suffering, attempt to repress the hatred that was clearly tearing him apart.The only way he knew how to do that was alone.But I couldn’t shake the acrimonious fire surging through my bloodstream, he had every rig
Bellatrix Sinclair“Clearly he underestimated my abilities.” Melody glowered, expressing her disbelief. “It will take alot more to knock us out.”Her voice became distorted by the splitting headache, another side-effect of the sleeping drug that added to the density of my body. “This feels weird.” I grumbled under my breath.I should be freaking out by such foreign sensations of her voice creeping into my mind, yet it strangely felt right. Melody spoke softly, appeasing the hesitation in my soul from this revelation. “You will get used to it eventually. If you find it too intrusive, envision a wall separating us and you won’t be able to hear my voice.”She was providing comfort, trying to ease my acceptance that I was no longer human. I don’t think I’ve fully comprehended that I’m a werewolf, especially one in the prophecy – which I didn’t believe but Lazarus seemed adamant.Christian flicked his gaze to the rearview mirror, a mirage of emotions filtering through his orbs before his f
Lazarus De LoughreyThe Syndicate resided in a castle, atop the mountains that gave the illusion it floated in the sky. It was secluded from the rest of the Kingdom’s, stationed on a vast piece of land without a soul in sight. Although I knew this place wasn’t truly their home, that information was strictly confidential.Now it made sense that whenever I tried to figure out the identities of the other Elder’s - I came to a dead end and that was due to Donovan’s interference.Bellatrix’s curled her fingers into my jacket, bunching the material in a tight grip. She can barely manage to lift her head, shallow pants slipping from her lips. “Lazarus.....what did you do?”I raised her chin, a magnetic collision of those crystalized blues, lids drooping as she fought the drug. “It’s for your own good.” I said, softly.“I’m supposed....to....help.” Her voice faded as she slumped against me.Carefully maneuvering her back to the leather seat, I adjusted the dosage of the sleeping drug to ensur
Bellatrix Sinclair“You shouldn’t be out of bed.” Lazarus chastised, features hardening as he leaned back into the chair.“It’s been almost two weeks, I’ve recovered.” I said sternly. “Don’t think I don’t know what you are up to.”His silence was all the confirmation I needed; the tense atmosphere seeping into his muscles. Not that I blame him, this was a huge betrayal from the only family he had left.Lazarus lifts his gaze to meet mine, arching an eyebrow. “What exactly do you think I am up to?”I sighed, exasperated. “You called for Judah and Valeria. It’s quite obvious that you are planning on confronting your uncle.”“Quite perceptive.” He mused with a smirk.I sucked in a sharp breath, unease curdling in my stomach. “Are you going to tell them about the prophecy and my wolf?”His stare is cryptic, like h
