- The only thing I know is that it seems like you're doing it on purpose. Or maybe your brain has already turned to jelly from all the spiked alcohol you've been drinking for years.- Goddess, woman! No one stops that mouth of yours. That's why you live in this exile, alone. – Skyler fought his anger by walking around the house.- Skyler, what's the point of you being there, throwing out escape plans, if none of them show the slightest viability of success? Romeo and Julius need a foolproof escape plan. Much more now that instead of a plan for 2, it's a plan for 4.. And one of them is human. She can't escape like the others. We really need to find a way to make them disappear from the face of the earth. A place where not even nocturnals dare to enter. We need to put our brains together and think. No more insults and fights.Skyler stops and looks at Delilah.- What did you just say?- I said we need to put our brains together and think. No more insults and fights.- No, before that.
- Wait! What? Do you have a son? Since when?“Since 50 years ago, when I fucked his mother and left her brainless, like you've never been able to do in your life.”Lycaon grunts.- And you only now remembered to tell me?“It’s not that I owe you explanations of my sex life. The times I dip my brush on someone is not of your concern, but the times we’ve seen each other over these 50 years haven’t been many either.”- And do you think it's safe to leave Julius and Romeo with him?“Oh, I'm sure. Must be the safest place in the world for them. Have you ever heard about motorcycle groups that ordinary mortals want to be the hell away from?”- Ya. I heard some names.“Baltazar is the leader of the subnatural version of it.”- Fuck Skyler. I don't know if it's wise to leave pups among criminals.“Hey, be careful what you say. My son is not a criminal. Well, he has to do cool things that everyone knows about but no one can prove. If that weren't the case, how did he maintain the group's reput
- Do I still have time to dig my own grave?Julius and Shane laugh.They remain silent for a few seconds until Reed asks:- Is that why Vlad is after you?Julius hesitates but nods.- I'm surprised that your father doesn't know anything. They are enemies, but since he can't catch you, he could let your father know. Was a way to destroy you in your father's eyes.- Vlad is not interested in that.- There's no logic in your you just said. Your mate is just a vampire. Unless... - he looks Julius in the eyes.“here we go” – Julius's wolf and Shane says simultaneously in his head.- Unless it's someone very important to Vlad and he doesn't want to put him in that situation. Who is the vampire Julius?- That doesn't matter. I've already told you too much. I don't even know if I trust you.- Screw that. Who is he, Julius?Julius keeps his mouth shut and Reed squints again. He suddenly tilts his head, as if he had read something in Julius's face and he becomes distressed.- It's the prince, i
- Baltazar, how are you?“Dad, good to hear from you. I already missed your voice. When do you decide to come live with us? Here you had the two worlds you love so much. Rogue life with a good bed to sleep in.”Skyler laughs. Every time he spoke to Baltazar, the conversation always started with an invitation to move to his son's pack. Sometimes he thought he should do just that. Nothing held him back anywhere. He lived alone and therefore only drank. But he didn't drink as much as he let on. Yes, he drank a glass of whatever, with wolfsbane every now and then, but most of the time, he drank beer, and let's be honest, beer is a treat for a werewolf. Just water and cereals in that.- Who knows, if things go well, sooner than you and I think."Serious? This makes me happy. But wait… things go well? Are you in danger?”- No. I mean, deep down I may be, but I'm not the one who needs help. I call to tell you about that.“Dad, you know that you can count on me for whatever it is.”- after li
- Today is a good day. – Sterling says, smiling.His father turns his face to his side and chuckles.- What's good about this day compared to all the others?- As long as we're alone, away from prying ears, I can call you dad. – Sterling says, without looking away from the landscape that passed outside the van window.The father looks back at his son, moved. When he looks back to pay attention to driving he says:- You know. This makes me very happy, but you have to think that this is all for our safety. To tell you the truth, if the war hadn't happened, you probably wouldn't remember me anymore. you would have your pups and perhaps grandpups and even great-grandpups... taking into account that mates can appear as soon as you turn 18. You had probably already decided to move on with your life, and you were following a path away from your descendants.- In that case, it's a good thing there's a war, because I'm very grateful to have my dad on my side. I said it was a good day to be abl
Victor and Sterling are taken, chained with silver, into the packhouse. It was not an imposing packhouse. It was even relatively modest, but Sterling looked around fascinated. Unlike his father, he had never entered a packhouse. He had never been inside a pack.The gazes of several members of the pack followed them, and this bothered Victor. Not that he felt intimidated. He was no longer the man he once was, and without a wolf, he would be of little use, if those men who spoke of pack and packhouse were true werewolves, and not deranged bikers, whose group's name had gone to their heads.Sterling was not intimidated at all. Despite Vitor telling him to calm down, he ignored him. He wasn't scared. He was curious about everything that surrounded him.They are taken to what must be Baltazar's office, and he is already waiting for them sitting at his desk.With his arms crossed and an intimidating look, he motions for them to sit down, but as they don't move, the men who were bringing the
When the council contacted the werewolves' king informing him that the treaty had been signed by Vlad, Aethelwulf did not know whether to sigh with relief or begin his torment.His mate was right. As soon as he told Julius about the possibility of the pups returning to college, Julius's mood changed. The reason why Julius was fascinated with the college was something that transcended him, but he had to begin preparations to reactivate the protocols that kept vampires and werewolves separate in schools, contact the pack alphas in that state, and hope that everything went well.If he was going to trust the council's action, and that was a mistake, it could mean sending dozens of pups into the “vampire's mouth”.- I don't know if this isn't a mistake.- let's have faith in the Moon Goddess. Furthermore, both you and I know how much Julius has suffered and how he now smiles when he knows he can soon go back to college. – says Luna.- I don't know if it wouldn't make more sense to create a
- The daughter of…- I heard. But why the hell am I going to get involved in your shit? Two weeks ago, you took her to bed and there's no one in the palace that didn't hear her screams. Her father was furious. Now do you want me to convince him to let her go with you on a boat? No place to escape? – Vlad chuckles. – Get me out of that B movie.- Dad, that was his eldest daughter. It's not my fault her ass is tight.Vlad hides his face in his hands and shakes his head. Yap, Orpheus was 100 times worse than he ever was.- The daughter I want to take with me is the youngest.- Orpheus, How old she is? 17 years? She's barely born yet. Have some sense. I forbid you to approach her. She's a child.- But dad…- No. I never got involved in the shit you do or the women you seduce, but there are limits. You will not touch that child.Orfeus pouts and crosses his arms, which makes Vlad roll his eyes again.- You heard me right? Right? - he shout. - Yes.- I didn't understand the answer!- Yes f
