DANIKA

Tonight, I'm painfully restless. I'm unsure why. But ever since I left Kaziel's side, the feeling of foreboding has been growing stronger. Now, I'm staring at my phone pondering giving him a call. I don't want to seem too clingy, it's why I'm hesitating.

A sudden knock on the door startles me, and I look up, on edge. Maybe it's Eve.

The last thing I want to do is talk to her right now.

"It's me, Amie," I hear a familiar voice say. I rise to my feet, surprised.

She rarely ever comes to me.

When I open the door, I find her standing there wearing a black nightgown.

"Hey, what's up?" she says, and I force out a smile.

"Just studying," I tell her, and she grins.

"I didn't want to disturb you, but I know you feel it too. So I must tell you," she says, rubbing the back of her neck.

I tense, my nerves acting up.

"My family's been witches for generations. I didn't inherit their power, not really. But I can sense when something dark is stirring," she tells me, and my heart sinks.

    KAZIEL Her lips part in a perfect O, her head dropping back against my chest. She tries to press her thighs together, but I smoothly slide my leg between hers. She cries out as I fuck her hard with my fingers. Her face is flushed, her eyes nearly rolling into the back of her head."Eyes on the mirror, sweet thing," I growl against her ear, and she nods feverishly, moaning loudly as I piston my fingers deep into her slick pussy until she's shaking. Smiling, I clamp a hand over her mouth to keep her from alerting the whole floor. Still, I don't stop, I finger her through her next orgasm and the one after that, making sure she feels it to her bones.When I finally pull away, I bring my fingers to her lips, and she curls her tongue over them, breathlessly licking them clean. The simple act has my dick straining painfully against my zipper."Are you good?" I ask, and her gaze meets mine through the mirror, her eyes glimmering."Yes," she breathes, and I smirk.I press a kiss to her

    DANIKA Heart pounding, I turn around. My soul nearly leaves my body when my gaze rests on the woman before me. It's definitely her. Tyler's mother. She's wearing a blazer dress and stilettos, with a pair of glasses hiding her eyes."Oh my god, what the hell are you wearing, Dani?!" She exclaims, taking off her sunglasses. And all I can think about is the fact that I've been busted. If she looks a little to the side, she's definitely going to realize that I'm here with her stepson.My brain scrambles for a response, my pulse frantic."And what exactly are you doing in a place like this?!" Her voice goes an octave higher, dripping with disbelief.I'm desperate for the ground to somehow cave in and swallow me. I part my lips to say something random only for a hand to wrap around my waist, the lovely scent of dark chocolate flooding my senses. I'm convinced I'm going to die today."Can you not raise your voice at her, Ember?" Kaziel says, and blood drains from her face, her jaw dro

    DANIKA I drop my phone onto the bed, my hands trembling. My chest feels like it's being squeezed in a vice, but I can't make a sound. Tyler... all this time... he'd been playing me. Every word, every "I missed you," had served as some kind of bait. My stomach twists, bile rising in the back of my throat. I can't breathe.I feel Kaziel stir against me. His eyes flutter open, startled, and they immediately fix on mine."Dani?" His voice is thick with sleep and worry. "Why-what's wrong?"I shake my head, unable to meet his gaze. I can feel the tears beginning again and the hot sting against my lashes."It's nothing," I choke out, trying to pull away, but he gently takes my face in his hands."Don't... don't hide it from me," he murmurs. "Please."I try to speak, but all that comes out is a soft, broken sob. And that's enough. Kaziel doesn't push or demand. He just wraps his arms around him, letting me cry into his chest, rocking me gently as I let everything pour out.I don't know

    DANIKA "Kaziel? Please look at me," I say, and he shakes his head weakly, his shoulders slumped. It breaks my heart to see him like this."Tell me, please," I beg, and his body tenses."The hollow curse is not as simple as you think it is. It's been in the Lakewood bloodline for years. My mother...died because of it," his voice cracks.I can feel his hands shaking. So, I wrap my arms tighter around him."Are you afraid that knowing the truth is going to make me run from you?" I ask, and he nods."Let me guess, the hollow curse wants me dead," I say, and his entire body freezes.I gulp, my chest tightening. "Tell me more.""One of the alphas in my bloodline was a tyrant. He wanted more power to destroy and control other packs, so he decided to summon an ancient god. They call him 'the destroyer.' That alpha accepted the power that was offered to him but failed to negotiate what he would give in return. The god asked him to sacrifice his mate as payment."My stomach churns with

    KAZIEL "Tell her, Kaziel," Eve calls out, laughing as she steps into the downpour. "Go on!"Danika freezes."Eve," I rasp, "shut your—"But she keeps going as she steps closer, her soaked hair plastered to her face."You remember, don't you?" she drawls, her eyes gleaming with cruelty. "You said you needed someone because you were... lonely." Her grin mocks me. "You asked me to stay."My voice cracks. "Danika, she's lying."Danika's head is bowed, rain dripping from her lashes, her breathing ragged as she stares at the ground. She isn't crying. And somehow... that makes it worse."Dani," I whisper, moving towards her.She steps back, and my chest caves in. The Hollow fuels my panic, tugging at my self-control. For a terrifying second, my vision goes black around the edges.But I force it down.Danika finally lifts her gaze, but her eyes aren't furious. They're empty. And that terrifies the hell out of me."Danika," I say again, my voice raw. "I didn't touch her."Eve laughs. "Don'

    DANIKA My chest feels tight as I halt in front of a grey apartment door. This could be a trap. Maybe Hera set this up.But I can't stop. Tyler... might be dying. And I can't leave him like that.Sure, a part of me is still pissed at him. And yet... I can't help but feel that pull of old friendship as well as the bond we shared before everything got twisted.I knock on the door, my knuckles stiff. My heart races as it creaks open. Tyler stands there, looking like a freaking zombie swaying on unsteady legs. There are blood stains on his unbuttoned shirt, the color stark against his skin."Cakes..." His voice is fragile, and it makes my chest tighten. "You... you came."I swallow hard. "Of course I came," I deadpan, trying to keep the edge out of my voice. "You're not dying on my watch."He gives me a weak, crooked smile. The one that used to make me laugh even in the worst times. Without thinking, I step forward, and he collapses into my arms."I... I'm sorry," he mutters, resting
