"What happened?" Dad rushed towards me. As soon as Zane fainted, I called the ambulance. I didn´t know what else to do. The ambulance rushed him to the hospital, while I followed him in my car. I asked my phone to dial Dad´s number, and it went to voicemail. Then, I asked my phone to dial my brother´s phone number, and Stavros didn´t answer either. I bet with the Moon out in the open, bright and high; they were doing what I was doing momen
ZaneI finished my meeting with my uncle and asked a servant to summon Angelo and Maddox. Minutes later, the servant woke up with Maddox following him. I looked around, “Where is Angelo?” I said, and Maddox took a deep breath.“Busy, Mrs. Helia gave him something,” Maddox said with gritted teeth, the eyes of his demon flashing with despair.I knew that look. Many times I have seen it when we were suffering in the lab. It was the look of a man severely wounded, of a man who was trying with all his might not to give the world the satisfaction of seeing him crumbling.I looked at the servant and asked. “I need my bodyguard… I am leaving,” I said, this time trying a more commanding voice. The servant bowed and went back to the servant quarters to find Angelo.“Man, are you alright?” I asked Maddox, and he shook his head.“No… my demon is
AngeloMaddox and I were led to the servant quarters to wait for Zane. Maddox immediately asked for the restroom, as an opportunity to check the area around. While I kept the servants engaged and distracted, he might be able to scurry away and make some recon. I was surprised to see how the vampire servants were treated. The conditions were not ideal for any supernatural being, and the vampire servants were these frail creatures being abused by those in charge. I was surprised that King Sergei would let others abuse people in such a way.“Would you want a glass of water?” A frail female vampire asked.“Yes, please, you can point the way, and I can't help myself,” I said, and she looked at me as if I had explained rocket science.“Sire, I am here to serve… that is my punishment,” she said, lowering her gaze.“Punishment? Isn't this a job?” I asked, and she shook her head.&n
ZaneThe following day after training, Maddox and I headed to the Vampire Realm. Angelo was also with us. He was an angel, but he could conceal his nature, among other things.“So, Zane, you need to be very assertive with your uncle. You are taking over… Maddox and I will have your back. You try to learn and get the ropes of how things work around there, while we make a little research of our own,” he said, and I nodded.“I will, please be careful out there… Helia is also against me, or at least, against me taking the position and crowning Asteria as their queen. She didn't get the chance to be the queen, and she resents the Vampires for stripping her of the chance,” I said, and Angelo nodded.“We will deal with her in due time… for the time being, let's keep out of her sight,” Angelo said, and Maddox nodded.“I don't want to mess this up. I´ll follow y
MaddoxTraining with Cadmus was pure torture, but it only showed me that I was so out of shape that I needed to work extra hard to get where I needed to be.After training, I sat on the ground and saw Zane train with Dominic, the demon king, and with two other guys. A dragon named Urien and a nightcrawler, Roger. I knew that becuase King Dominic kept yelling their names, giving out instructions.The dragon was a really good fighter; he was efficient in his moves and sharp. There was so much I could learn from him just by looking. I wondered why he was not training me, but I was stuck with Cadmus.“Maddox, come here.” King Dominic said, and I slowly stood up, feeling pain in every single muscle of my legs and arms. I discovered long-forgotten places of my anatomy.“I need you to fight Zane,” he said, and I looked up at him.“What?” I looked around, confused,“I don't like to repeat myself. I wa
MaddoxThe landing of a big fire dragon in the middle of a little league soccer match was certainly unnecessary. When he shifted and introduced himself as Cadmus, and when he said I should go with him, I refused.I was in the middle of something. People should not expect others to drop whatever they are doing to follow them blindly, especially when they are strangers. I hissed and showed him my fangs. He looked at me as if I were a toddler throwing a tantrum. The man before me was powerful and well-trained, but I refused to go out without a fight.“You should come with me,” he insisted, and I shook my head. When he tried to reach out for me, I pulled out my demon claws and clawed his arm. He hissed and then chuckled. The cocky bastard was graining on my nerves.“I am not going with you until I know what you need?” I said defiantly, while the game kept running. I was an assistant coach, afte
Asteria D´AngeloI knew why he was doing it, but no matter how I tried to rationalize it, or understand it… I hated the idea of being apart.I agreed because he would be traveling back and forth, but the risk of having him traveling all the time was something I should consider, too. It would be tiring and risky.“Alright, let's go back to the conference room. We need to have a plan and a backup.” He cupped my cheek, and I reluctantly nodded.“I understand, and still, I hate it,” I mumbled, and he pecked my lips.“I know, and I feel the same,” he sighed, and I knew then and there that he was just as torn as I was, even more. He was not only torn by the decision he had to make, but by his duty, his family, his realm, and his mate.I laced my fingers in his cold ones, and we made our way back to the conference room. As soon as we entered, th
Dominic TyenWhen I heard what had happened to Zane, I was intrigued, but when Uncle Max called me and explained, I was more than ready to go to war with a fucking deity.. No one, and I mean it, not fucking one, should tamper with a fated mate bond; everyone knows it. Here in the supernatu
Asteria D´AngeloI sat beside Zane´s bed. He had a little spike in his heart, and we all thought he would get better, but suddenly he collapsed again. It was so terrifying, the pain in our bond, the sharing and harrowing pain that told me he was in deep pain, was something that
Hunter SingleoakI can´t tear my eyes off my mate; she is beautiful beyond comprehension. She is so beautiful that she is not even aware of it. So much it hurts. She is so innocent and wise, yet she has her temper, and we could have a taste of it when Wyatt opened up his fcking mouth
Elisa D´AngeloMy mates walked out of the corner, where the Archives accommodated them in a room to talk. I sat beside Angie, and Roger sat across the table from her. I kept my eyes locked on a parchment. We had finished researching the mate bond; now it was time to find a prophecy o
