Elder Richard P.O.V.

While Maddison and Liam are at the gathering at the vampire Court, I promised to look more into the spy situation at the Council headquarters. We already gathered quite a lot of evidence of foul play, and I’m ashamed to admit it reaches a level within the Elders I never thought possible.

Harriet and the kids have been helping me when I’ve worked from home, but with the situation coming to a head soon, we need the advantage this can give us, and Mills called this morning an

  • Her True Mate   Accusations

    Druida P.O.V.After waiting for a reaction from someone outside for the better part of an hour, we decided to call it a night. Cain wanted an update in person because he missed me, and Lucas was gracious enough to stay out in the outer part of our tent, leaving Cian and I to talk quietly on the bed. It was the first time in a long time we were just him and I, and it felt like we were getting closer than ever, and our bond felt stronger when he kissed my fingers with a wink and teleported out in a puff of smoke. “What did his dramatic Highness have to say?” Lucas asks from the doorway to the outer part of the tent. I snort and roll my eyes. Their endless childish nicknames for each other is actually quite endearing and hilarious, and I know for a fact neither of them mean anything by it. They are not very thrilled by the thought of sharing, but they are getting along just fine, and somehow I think they have found common ground - whatever that might look like with them. “He says the

  • Her True Mate   Moving in the shadows (part two)

    Lucas P.O.V.‘Cian?’ I open the link, including Mirage in it this time so he knows she is with me. ‘Lulu, I know I’ve kind of abandoned you right now, but damn. Do you miss me that much?’ He links back and Mirage snorts behind me as we slowly walk towards the bridge to the shabby camp. ‘We’re going to have more refugees coming your way - women and children. Some of them are not going to be as friendly minded as the rest.’ ‘So what your saying is some of them are whores who got a taste of power, and they like it enough to justify being raped, beaten and degraded on a daily basis?’ ‘Sort of yes.’ Cian is quiet for a second before returning to the link. ‘We’ll be ready for them. Tell some of the other women they need to be ready to identify the troublemakers because they are going straight into the cellars for their and our protection.’ Mirage is already quietly talking to Nima and Polli, and they agree to identify Elvie and her posse right as they get through the portal. Mirage al

  • Her True Mate   Moving in the shadows (part one)

    Druida P.O.V.The atmosphere in the camp changed immediately when Silvan and Jessica arrive through the portal. Everyone straightens, some look more serious, some more nervous, but the general sentiment of the vibe is that the leaders have arrived and we’re about to get down. I quietly observe from the back with Lucas, my arms crossed, my eyes watching sharply as Silvan addresses the entirety of the camp before just as the sun goes down. Jess is at his side, looking as beautiful and dangerous as ever with her slender figure, crimson streaked blond hair and cold silver/grey eyes. They glide over the masses listening in rapt attention, and stay on my face for more than a brief second. She doesn’t scowl, but she doesn’t smirk either. They just recognize, register, that I’m there and then they move on, again and again moving over the crowd. She doesn’t speak, but her presence is unmistakable, her clothes, makeup and aura made for a crowd like this, her posture arrogant and elegant enough

  • Her True Mate   Forced proximity

    Jessica P.O.V.“Let’s go already, Silvan. I’m bored.” I whine for the hundredth time since this morning. “Would you stop complaining all the goddamn time and be of use instead, then we could leave that much sooner?!” Silvan answers, his voice annoyed. “And ruin my perfect manicure? No thank you.” I say, crossing my arms. Truth is I haven't tried anything that demands me using strength or speed ever since I was made aware of my wolf’s utter betrayal. If Silvan has not noticed, I’m not going to be the one who shows or tells him. That will only make me a much bigger liability, and right now he at least thinks I can defend myself. “Why couldn’t Elisa have stayed behind? She could have helped.” I ask, rolling my eyes when he sighs dramatically and finally turns around. “Because I need her in the camp, Jessica. And you are staying right by my side where I can keep a fucking eye on you. Do you think I want to die just because you are weak as a kitten?” “Excuse me?” “I know about you w

  • Her True Mate   Back from the dead

    Cian P.O.V. “Why don’t you just tell us who is coming through your…” Lilliana gasps when both couples and the young pregnant woman are standing on our side. “Cian.. Where?” “It doesn’t matter right now, Lillie. What matters is their protection, and the fact that she is going to deliver a baby any day.” I reply, watching the young woman trying to hide behind the couples. “But the rogues..” “Have not moved, or done anything to warrant amniosity from you, me or anyone else. Lucas said to hear them out, and get their story.” I tell the Luna, locking eyes with her, telling her silently she’ll have to go through me if she wants them. She sighs, signally to her already advancing warriors to stand down. She crosses her arms, lifting an eyebrow, and then her feline peaks out, which I find immensely funny, but I do not show or say anything. “Alright. You are right, unfortunately.” She concurs with a small smile, her eyes slightly annoyed. “Why don’t you tell me what happened?” They do, a

  • Her True Mate   The camp (Part two)

    Lucas P.O.V.After I’m asked to leave, nicely, I set out to explore our new home, and find somewhere where I can mindlink my parents and Cian in peace. There’s clear paths made with strewn sand in the grass, and tents in different sizes and colors all around us. Besides mine and my mates home, there’s a larger tent, and the crew I ask says it’s of course Silvans. I ask if I can take a peak inside, and they shrug and pretend to look the other way.It has four rooms, two bedrooms, which is natural as I know by now that both Silvan and Jessica utterly refuse to sleep in the same room, but I also have a feeling he is going to order her to stay close because of the matemark situation. If she dies, he does as well. It’s a curse and a blessing having a mate, getting marked. Personally I wouldn’t want to live on if my mate died, so I don’t care about that bit, but my selfish entitled brother has always been of another mind. Even when we were children. The third room is a meeting room filled

  • Her True Mate   Looped in (Part two)

    Cian P.O.V.As everyone on our end settles back into the chairs around the laptop on the table, the maiden stands behind her Queen, which is custom with them, I glance at the time on the top of the computer screen. It’s almost 3 in the morning, and I wonder why I do not feel more tired than I do? T

  • Her True Mate   Answer of the mates

    Druida P.O.V.After my little reset outside, I venture back in. Dawn is approaching but not yet quite upon us. I sigh. Another night where I get the minimum of sleep. It’s become a bad habit by this point, and Raven is grumbling about something along the lines of ‘we didn’t sleep any in the future

  • Her True Mate   Treaty in blood

    Maddison P.O.V.It takes everything in me not to kill the captured enemy right on the spot, and feeling Liam through our bond lets me know I’m not alone in my murderous thoughts. I know objectively we can’t, and when they are led away by the guards, I heave a sigh of equal contempt for their try to

  • Her True Mate   Dreams of ashes

    Druida Night. The kind where the darkness presses in on both sides and I lay in bed trying to force my thoughts to be quiet for just a second so I can fall into a dreamless sleep. But tonight they won’t heed my efforts, and pictures keep coming. From today, from the conversation with Tywin, the c
