Chapter 59
“I know you have. I know you love her and will do anything you can to make her happy. That’s why I’m asking this of you. This is my final gift to her. It’s the only thing I can do for her now. I haven’t been able to be with her as a husband should in a long time. I know she craves it, but she never lets it show. She is still affectionate and never makes me feel like I’m not enough. I’ve always known when she was dreaming about you, but I never said anything. I know she had stopped for quite some time until the war. Then I noticed her talking in her sleep again, but it was never more than that. Once I retired, I noticed that stopped.”
“Yes, she told me we could no longer talk because she didn’t want you to feel like she was cheating on you. She loves you,

Over the next year, Tim called me at least once a week. He would talk to me about how his health was doing. I became the friend he needed because I was objective about his death. I wasn’t encouraging him to get better or feel better about it. Instead, I was helping him to face it. All he seemed to worry about was how it would affect Dominique or his children. I’ll admit that I was selfish about it at first. All I could think about was finally having my chance with Dominique. I had been researching their wolves sharing the same soul. Unfortunately, I hadn’t found anything in my books, so I met up with the coven leader that Barnaby knew. Unfortunately, they didn’t do anything regarding the spirits but directed me elsewhere.

I wasn’t listening to what he was saying. I could only focus on the pulse beating wildly at the woman’s throat. She was terrified and trying to get away from Barnaby. He pushed her towards me, and I struck when she was close enough. I drank her dry in a few minutes. Blood was running down my face, and I tried to lick it off as much as possible. Barnaby shook his head and said, “I see you have become a monster again. I really do need to know what is happening with you.” “Need more,” I managed to get out. I could feel immense pain, but it wasn’t mine. Instead, it was a sen

I boarded a plane two days later. The crew had a way for me to be in the dark if it came down to it, as the very rear cabin had no windows. If we landed and it was daylight, they would take me out in a coffin that was now sitting in the plane. The crew was paid good money not to ask questions. It had been six days since Dominique had lost Tim, and I felt guiltier than ever that I had not been there for her. I hadn’t even reached out because I wanted to be there for her in person. But then again, she hadn’t reached out to me either. I wondered why. Was she mad at me? Did she not want to tell me about Tim’s death? I knew she wouldn’t want to be with me immediately after, but why wouldn’t she at least contact me about it? My thoughts kept running rampant until dawn broke, and I went down. I could no longer feel the plane movin

I moved through the darkness of the trees until I came to the edge of them. I had run through the territory line, and the wolves had let me be. I suppose they haven’t had a vampire here before but me. I started getting her scent as I got closer to Dominique’s home. I veered off toward her scent until I saw her. I stood there for a while, watching the woman I loved as she stood silently at the foot of a grave. I felt her sorrow, but her beauty captured me as I always was. I silently made my way across the field. Once I was close enough, I wrapped my arms around her, and she leaned into me. I felt like I had just landed in Heaven. “Nathaniel,” Dominique breathed. “Dominique, my love. I co

I had been going to Dominique’s house every night this past week. Some nights we would return to my cabin, and she would sleep on the bed with me. I always ensured she was under the covers, and I laid on top of them so she wouldn’t wake up to me being gone and her being cold and afraid. I loved those nights as I was allowed to hold her and watch her sleep. She said she hadn’t really slept except when I held her because her grief was unbearable in her bed. She had decided to move to another place she had told me about. I was hoping she would let me know where it was so I could continue to visit her. I would need to set up a permanent residence here again, so I didn’t have to stay in that little cabin. I wanted to make sure that I was in a place that didn’t have windows. I had alw

I took the stone out of my pocket. It was definitely glowing now. The more I stared at it, the more I could see something swirling around in it. I felt the energy in it, so I knew it had worked as far as trapping something, but I wondered if the wolf’s soul had been trapped or Tim’s. The witch had assured me she cast a spell to trap a wolf’s soul and not a human’s, but I wondered how reliable that was since she wasn’t sure if the stone would even work. Dominique needed more time to get over her grief before I offered this to her. I also wanted to know if she still wanted to be a wolf. I know she didn’t want to be one when it first happened. It took everything she had to accept it, as she thought I would no longer want her. However, she finally accepted it once I told her I would

We walked into my room, and I sat her on the bed. I walked over, picked up the stone, and put it in my pocket. I wanted to explain what this was before I gave it to her. I just hoped she would think about this before using it. I regretted the fact that I brought it up. I sat on the bed so I was facing her. “Before I give it to you, I want you to listen to what I have to say. Tim and I worried that you might die if your wolf was gone. We were worried that if Alpha died, you might die as well. We didn’t know if you would survive because you were my servant. I have researched over the years and could find nothing about a wolf being the human servant of a vampire. I have found nothing about a wolf being with a vampire. I also found nothing about wolves surviving their mate’s death when their souls are joined like yours and Tim&

What worried me was not her grief but how she had been acting since I gave her the stone. I had caught her holding it, and it almost looked like she was having an internal conversation with herself. The strange part was that the stone was glowing, almost as if it was talking back to her. I knew that her children had stopped by several times as I could always smell them in the house when I awoke. However, they hadn’t stayed long enough for me to wake up until I awoke to Michael in my room one night. My eyes opened, and I immediately smelled him. I opened my eyes and found him sitting in a chair facing the bed. I sat up, and he looked up at me. “Michael? What are you doing in here?”
