The rain was coming down in sheets, drenching everything in sight. The small town of hallow grove seemed almost deserted on this wet and dreary day. The normally bustling streets were quieter than usual, the few brave souls braving the elements had their heads down and hoods pulled tight over their heads.
The shops and cafes that usually provided a haven of warmth and refuge were mostly closed, their proprietors probably enjoying the rare break from the constant hustle and bustle of the town.In one of the few open storefronts, a quaint little bookshop nestled between a florist and a bakery, a small group of people huddled together for warmth and company. The cozy shop was filled with hushed whispers and the sound of rain pattering against the window panes.The shelves were lined with books of every genre, from romance to sci-fi, all illuminated by the warm glow of the store's many lamps. The air was thick with the aroma of coffee and freshly baked bread from the bakery next door.In a corner by the window, a young lady sat reading a book, oblivious to the world around her. She had a cup of coffee in one hand and a blanket draped over her legs, a perfect picture of peace and serenity. A group of friends sat around a small table in the center of the store, chatting and laughing as they played a board game. An older couple sat in the armchairs by the fireplace, holding hands and gazing contentedly into the flames."Fuck this rain isn't going to stop anytime huh?," Sitting across her, a young man with short brown hair groaned with a sigh. He had been trapped in this bookshop for the past two hours. He had beautiful brown eyes and a feminine look complemented by his full red lips.He lifted his gaze to the lady lured and captivated by the book in her arms. The girl has luscious black hair that falls in soft waves around her face, framing her delicate features. Her striking green eyes are framed by a pair of stylish round glasses that complement her confident and intellectual vibe.Her skin is porcelain smooth, and she exuded a quiet elegance that draws others towards her, radiating grace and sophistication."Did they make out yet Alexa?," He asked to which she replied"Not yet Ethan, but I'm getting to the good part, now shut up, quit whining like a baby, and let me read in peace," She lifted her gaze for a second to throw a mockery glare.Alexandra, twenty years old, an aspiring journalist was the only child of Mr. and Mrs. Oliver, the owner of the bookshop where she worked part-time as the store manager and the brown-haired man, Ethan as her assistant."You know, you could pick up a book to pass the time, instead of flirting with every girl that walks into the store," She said raising a brow"Hey it isn't my fault I'm too pretty and the ladies can't seem to stay away," He boasted with a smirk earning an eye roll from Alexa."What the hell," He got up from his seat and moved towards the windows with a frown on his face, "Seems like we have got visitors,""Neighbors?," She asked putting down the book. Hallow Groove rarely had any visitors, it was a small town on the outskirts of the city."I think outsiders," He said while the people inside the shop moved towards the window to get a better view of the outsiders.In the darkness of the rainy night, two cars emerge from the fog on a desolate highway. One at top speed in comparison to the other. The tires of the cars screech as they come to a sudden stop outside Mr. Oliver's bookshop.The drivers of the cars step out into the pitter-patter of the rain, pulling their jackets close around their bodies. They had a tall and well-masculine build as the ladies in the shop twirled in anticipation. They could tell the men were hotties judging from their build and how sophisticated they looked.One of the cars was a sleek black sports car, illuminated by its haunting headlights and the other was a muddy pickup truck.As the rain poured down on the quaint cobbled street, two stunningly beautiful men strolled towards the cozy little bookshop. The rain seemed not to concern them in the least, as they laughed and chatted nonchalantly as they made their way through the entrance.There was an ear-deafening silence as they stepped into the shop. Their beauty was breathtaking, and the people they passed on their seats couldn't help but stop and stare as they walked by. Each man possessed an otherworldly grace, and their chemistry together was electric.One of the men, who had more sex appeal than the other, walked with his head held high and his piercing blue eyes locked forward with a confident smirk on his face. His dark hair was perfectly styled and his chiselled jawline was the envy of many. As he passed by, bystanders couldn't help but turn their heads, their gazes following him as he walked in slow strides.His leather jacket hugged his broad shoulders and muscular frame, and the way it hung just right made him appear even more rugged and handsome. Every step he took seemed to have a certain pleasing cadence to it as if he moved with a calm, natural grace.The other, wore a bored look on his face as his long blonde hair tumbled over his shoulders elegantly, he had the look of a prince one would read in a romantic novel as his strange golden irises scanned through the room and his black coat fluttered against the wind."Oh my God what a fucking hottie!" One of the girls present said getting aroused just by staring at the gorgeous strangers. It was as though fate had sent a hot feast for the girls in this town. unknown to them fate had other plans, a sadistic one filled with death and choas.In the shop, giggling girls huddled together as they pointedly ogled the hot strangers who shared some resemblance, with a closer look one could tell they were brothers, with the dark-haired gorgeous devil being the elder. Their eyes were fixated on them as they sauntered through the room,"Hello, ladies," The dark-haired man whispered while the girls hung on every word he said, his voice was like velvet, and even the way he breathed seemed attractive. His voice was like an instrument for sex as he swayed his hips seductively with each movement.As he passed their table, the girls went into a frenzy of whispers, nudging each other excitedly. With every move he made, the girls couldn't help but stare in astonishment. They giggled and gossiped about him, taking turns describing every detail of his flawless appearance.Sighting the boys a middle-aged bald man walked towards them. He wore a uniform that singled him out from the rest of the crowd."Excuse me, fellas, what brings you to town," He had a Southern accent as he placed his hands on his hips. A gun was strapped to his belt as he watched the boys with his piercing blue eyes. He couldn't help but grow suspicious of the boys after all what could two extremely good-looking men possibly want in a little town like hallow grove?"I take it you're the sheriff," The dark-haired man spoke with a gorgeous grin as though trying to seduce the middle-aged man."God damn!' The sheriff couldn't help but admire his beauty which seemed straight out of a woman's wildest wet dream. Was he even human?, he thought"Yes, I am," He replied"It's a pleasure to meet you, please call me Lucifer, and this ever-brooding figure next to me is my brother, Lucian," He said earning a furrowed brow from the sheriff and some of the adults, including Alexa In the bookshop."Lucifer?, like the devil?,""Yes, I mean even the ladies can't deny I'm such a handsome devil that burn like hell,"The girls continued to gush over him, giddy and restless. They stumbled over their words and found themselves laughing nervously, but they couldn't help it, it was like they were under a spell. The devil's spell. Lucifer's spell.One year LaterThe man stood outside the beautiful home, his golden lock glinting in the warm morning sun. It cast a soft, golden glow on his skin, illuminating every freckle and line on his beautiful face. The gentle rays felt like a caress, warming him from the inside out and filling him with a sense of peace.As he closed his eyes and tilted his head back, he could feel the sun's warmth penetrating his skin, melting away any remaining traces of sleepiness. The light danced playfully on his eyelids, creating a kaleidoscope of colors behind closed eyes. He could hear the rustle of leaves and the distant sound of a breeze, adding to the serene atmosphere that surrounded him.The air was cool and crisp, tinged with the scent of freshly cut grass and blooming flowers. He took a deep breath, filling his lungs with the sweet fragrance of the morning. Each inhale felt like a sip of pure, invigorating energy, rejuvenating his spirit and filling him with a renewed sense of purpose.He slowl
With each labored breath, Lucifer struggled to maintain his composure as he shifted back to his human form. The pain of the transformation was excruciating, but it was nothing compared to the agony he felt when he opened his eyes to see Dante standing over him with a cold, dead stare."Ah! Fuck, you're still alive?," Lucifer chuckled Dante's empty eyes held no trace of the blood bond they shared, only the determination to end Lucifer's life. Without hesitation, Dante drove a sharp, long stake into Lucifer's gut, causing him to gasp in pain and shut his eyes to try to numb the sensation.As the reality of the situation set in, Lucifer's gaze shifted towards a high hill in the distance. It suddenly struck him that he and Dante had crashed in the heat of battle, their ideals torn apart by the conflict and hatred that had consumed them both."Funny, a devil like yourself finding love," Dante scoffed pulling a shotgun from his pocket and pointing it at Lucifer's head. About to pull the t
"Alexa, get behind me," Lucifer pleaded, shoving her aside with urgency. Startled, Alexa gazed at the mysterious stranger with a perplexed expression. Who was he? Was he one of the hunters she had been warned about? As she studied his features, she couldn't help but notice the striking resemblance he shared with Lucifer. It was almost like they could be siblings. Suddenly, a realization struck her, and her eyes widened in shock; could he be Dante? She remembered Lucifer mentioning a brother who haunted their kind. The pieces were starting to fall into place, and Alexa couldn't shake the feeling of unease settling in the pit of her stomach."Get away from her Lucifer," Dante ordered pointing a shotgun at Lucifer"Why can't you just stay dead Danny?," He taunted while Dante watched his every move. He couldn't risk firing the shot and hitting the girl beside him."Lucifer is that Dante?" She tugged his sleeve. Lucifer turned his gaze to Alexa"He is," Lucifer said with a subtle smile,
Alexa's heart was pounding as she struggled to make sense of her situation. She tried to remember the events that led up to this moment, but her memories were hazy. The last thing she remembered was Lucian writhing in pain from Lucifer's stab wounds and Lucifer's confessions. What came after was a blur."Ouch!" The sharp ache at the back of her head intensified, and she winced as she reached up to touch the area. Panic rose like a tide within her, threatening to overwhelm her senses. She had to think fast and stay calm. The pop music blaring through the stereo provided an incongruous backdrop to her fears, and she shot a sidelong glance at the driver. He was handsome, with dark hair and a clean-shaven jaw, but his steely eyes held a coldness that sent shivers down her spine. She recognized him immediately. It was Lucifer. Where the hell was he taking her? She turned her gaze outside, it seemed they had left town.She desperately tried to find a way to escape the confines of the car
Her heart raced with joy as she eagerly watched Lucian take off his mask and gloves, with Lucifer standing next to him. Without hesitation, she launched herself at Lucian, who caught her in his arms and twirled her around like a princess, his heart swelling with elation at her bold gesture. "Missed me?," He teased. The rush of adrenaline and excitement enveloped them both as they were lost in the moment."You're lucky you kept your promise," she teased, smirking up at him. "I'd have followed you to hell and killed you a second time,""Hmm, that would be... hot," Lucian replied with a devilish grin, his eyes sparkling with mischief. "Both figuratively and literally, sunshine." His playful tone made her heart flutter even more. His alluring gaze captivated her, and she felt like she belonged in his arms, the heat of their immediate connection filling the air. She savored this moment, feeling an overwhelming sense of ecstasy and contentment flooding her senses."I'm doing fine thanks
Dante's voice boomed through the air as he commanded, "Drop your weapons and back away from Raven slowly,'" His words were accompanied by a telegraphed movement that indicated he was tightening his grip around Lucifer's neck. Lucian didn't hesitate to follow Dante's instructions. He took slow steps back, keeping his gaze fixed on Dante, fully aware of the danger that lurked within those piercing eyes. Meanwhile, Dante effortlessly tossed Lucifer over the nearby wall. Without warning, Dante's movements became a blur as he darted forward with lightning speed, seizing Lucian by the throat and forcefully slamming him to the ground. It was a swift and powerful move that left Lucian gasping for breath as he struggled to comprehend Dante's impossible speed.Elongating his claws, he was about to strike Lucian's heart, when the golden-haired man opened his mouth and spit liquid wolfsbane into Dante's eye making him groan in pain and momentarily go blind. Seizing the moment Lucian pulled a g
Warning this chapter contains high level of violence, readers discretion is strongly advised Lucian barged into the house, his senses were heightened, his heart pounding in his chest knowing he needed to act fast. He moved quickly, his eyes scanning the room for any sign of movement. The Lycan Hunters, caught off guard by the sudden intrusion, scrambled to take cover, trying to regain control of the situation."Lucian is here!" One of the hunters screamed to alert the others. They quickly grabbed their weapon, knives, guns, and spears to attack Lucian.Amidst the chaos, Lucian kept his cool, his training kicking in as he fired off rounds with lethal precision. The Hunters, though well-armed and trained, were no match for his skill. He ducked and weaved through the hail of bullets fired by the hunters, his expression unwavering as he took out a few of the soldiers with well-aimed shots.The room was filled with the deafening sound of gunfire and shouts as the intense battle raged on
Warning this chapter contains vivid and graphic description of torture, readers discretion is advised"Lucian?" She awoke to a pounding headache and gazed at the unfamiliar surroundings. Where was she? It appeared to be a small cabin. Turning to her side, she spotted the beautiful golden-haired lycan shifter rummaging through a drawer, pulling out an assortment of weapons, guns, explosives, knives, and some that she couldn't even identify. What the hell was happening? And how had she ended up here in the first place?"Lucian?," He trailed his sights to Alexa and briskly moved over next to her, clasping her hands with his and placing a tender kiss on her arm."What's happening?, how did I get here?""I moved you while you were asleep. There wasn't enough time to tell you everything," Lucian said, gazing into her hazel-green eyes. He felt an undeniable pull towards her, getting lost in the sparkle and dazzle of her gaze. As much as he longed to run away with Alexa, he knew he couldn't
"Alexa!" Tommy exclaimed as he burst into the house, the gun clutched tightly in his hand. His eyes darted frantically around the room, desperately searching for any clue that she had been there. His heart pounded in his chest, fear gnawing at him as he imagined the terrible things that could have befallen her. He couldn't bear the thought of her in danger, and he vowed to do whatever it took to find her and keep her safe."Alexa!" He called out again, this time louder than before."Alexa!"Raven, with a subtle nod of her head, silently communicated her orders to the hunter nearby. Without a moment's hesitation, the hunter swiftly pulled out a gleaming knife from his belt and delivered a precise, forceful blow to the back of the deputy sheriff's head, causing him to slump unconscious onto the nearby couch."Oh relax Dante, we both know we can't reveal our secrets to him," She chuckled noticing Dante's disapproving look."Lucian isn't here," Dante said ignoring her words, "His scent
