Lilith POV
Standing before the apartment complex, we waited, the three of us, advisors are a part of wars, they shouldn't get their hands dirty, so we sent home Isaac, we knew if Eve found out, she would have him killed.
“Remember, what we talked about... no killing,” I whispered, “For this plan to work, we must remain strategic and—”
A loud howl thundered inside the darkness across from us, sending quivers up my spine. “Remember...” I swallowed hard, “Fight them, slash them, but don't—”
“Kill them, yeah, we got it, Lil, let's focus on survival and not an opening speech,” Stefan mumbled, the nervousness in his voice was evident, but who I am to judge, we should be afraid.
Marching from out of the shadows was an enormous, black-furred wolf, eyes blood-red, his mouth drooling while growled lowly. He was ahead of the others, who weren't as big as him, but they were big enough.
“Y
Mel POVLathering my hair with shampoo, I situated under the shower, thinking.“Hey,” William hugged me from behind, “Everything is ok? You seem distant,”“No, I am just tired,” I lied, overhearing his hired mothers' conversation that night have changed how I viewed William if he lied about that, what else is he lying about. Placing soft kisses on my shoulder, I shrugged him off, “I said I am tired, William,”“I— I am sorry,” he apologized lowly,“I'm going to hop out real quick and make you breakfast ok?”“Yeah, sure, I will be out in a second,” I told him, it was hard for me to pretend, the annoyance in my voice was and evident. But how could he? Why would he, not being introduced to his parents wasn't this important enough for him to employ strangers to play the part. Turning off the pipe, I opened my eyes, immediately squeezing them shut,“Ugh,” I gr
Eve POV“How did you say she did it?” I questioned.“The other werewolves said she used her claws, your Majesty,” a guard informed me.“She used her claws to take away Basils' alpha? By turning him into a Beta?”“I don't know anything about werewolves, I know betas have yellow eyes, omegas are blue—”“Does it look like I want to be schooled? You idiot... betas who have taken innocent lives eyes are also blue, you can't seriously be that dumb?”“As I said— I don't know much about...”“Get the fuck out of my sight before I change my mind about not killing you,” I growled.Stumbling in fear, the guard rushed out my chambers,“Ariel?” I squealed.“Yes, my queen?” She rushed in, kneeling before my feet,“Thought I told... You don't have to do that you're my Jem,” I smiled, kissing
Lilith POVWrapped up in the arms of Damon, I opened my eyes slowly, smiling about what happened last night, sitting on the bed edge I glanced him over my shoulder, my handsome mate— whatever that means, his eyes had the same color as mine and then it hit me, did my parents knew, all along they kept telling me that I saw had a disease, was it something they were told to say by the person who gave me to them, I have so many questions and I will get my answers,“Hey good morning,” Damon kissed my shoulder,“Good morning — mate,” I grinned.“No, don't say it like that” he glared at me“Why, not?” I giggled.“Because you make it sound as if we are animals,”“Well, after last night, we should reconsider our species,” I smirked.&n
Stefan POVHe was right under noses the entire time, Azrael fed on Mel insecurities just to get close to Lilith.“That day I saw him at the book store, the way he looked at me... I should have known,” Lilith sobbed, her eyes were red and swollen from excessive crying,“How did he even do that, can he be two places at once?”“No, teleporting for him is easy, he was an angel, so he teleported on and off that ship as he likes,” I explain.But it wasn't the teleporting that bother me,he said something and it has been puzzling me since, and I think we need to find out what it is before trying to rescue Isaac or Mel.“There is a rat in the house,” I yelled “everyone outside now,” I shoved them outside, closing the door loudly behind me,“The house is bugged,” I whispered.“What... How do you know this?” My brother asked,“Because of what
Damon POVWe had to take the car, we couldn't teleport because Lilith hasn't learned how to differentiate between the two energy field as yet, but if Azrael is losing his power, we might have a chance at beating Eve, she keeps releasing prisons, to have them defeated and sent back to Taratus, Lilith will kill her, and she won't even see it coming. I am only worried about Liliths capability to make that decision, her emotions are both her strengths and weaknesses and that scares me, it's a good thing to want to save others, but some aren't worth saving, some like Eve, and if Lilith backs out at the last moment, I'll just have to kill her my self and deal with the consequences afterward, but Eve must die, and I have made up my mind to take her down, my first love.“Hey, you ok?” Lilith tugged on my arm.“Yea,I am fine, just thinking that's all,”“Don't worry, we are going to catch him,”
Lilith POV“What do you mean it's gone?” Issac screeched.“When we got there it was gone, the bodies, the portal—”“What bodies?”“Vampires, but when we found them they were two days old, so I knew they would turn into dust the next day,” Stefan explained.“Why?” I questioned,“The bodies were right in front of the windows, and they are big enough to reflect the right amount of sunlight,”“That's a thing? Vampires and sunlight?” I asked.“Yes, immediate contact with sunlight, could kill a vampire, however, if the vampire is already dead, it will take three days for the body to degenerate,” Isaac mumbled.“But why was a cult of vampires there in the first place?”“I think before he died, Lucifer gave them a spare key or a way to access the room, usually when but this is the puzzling part, vampi
Lilith POVThinking about it, I just realized, he says he knows nothing, but who pays him, the better question is, how does he get the booze?Backing away from him, my heart ached, just when I was starting to think of him as one of us, a friend, but now he is a potential suspect,“Answer me, before I rip your head off,”“Lilith— come on, don't you trust me?”Looking into his eyes I could see his innocence, he was just a kid, but after what happened with Thomas, I know I am a poor judge of character, and I know Azrael and Eve can make a killer out of anyone,“Just answer the question, Max,” I whispered, looking away.“I don't know ok, everyone gets paid the same, I go in and find an envelope with my name with money in it, as for the booze, it's always there if I sold a whole bottle of bloody mary today, tomorrow it's refilled, so— I don't
Lilith POV“What is she doing at the sanctuary?” Stefan questioned,But I didn't know, I knew nothing, but I could tell that something was right, I could feel it,“I am— not sure,” I whispered,“Ok, so let's all go, it's probably a trap,” Max sprung to his feet.“Not so fast, you and I are staying, we need to have a chat about who your father is,” Isaac grumbled.“But how do we enter the sanctuary, no demon can pass through its gates,” Stefan mumbled,“I don't know that either,” I mumbled.“Ok, I say we go at nightfall, when we get there we figure out a way in,” Stefan suggested.“Guys, I have to bounce,”Max stared at his phone, “Regardless of everything that is going on, I have to keep the club afloat, so— just stay safe and come back in one piece, will ya?” He smiled at me,
