“Where were you this afternoon?” Dominic turns around to ask me softly.
I stare up into his eyes and reply, “I was walking around in the gardens. Honestly, I didn’t want to be by you right at that moment.” My voice fades away as I stare into those gorgeous hazel eyes and feel myself start to melt.
“Why?” He sounds immediately concerned and cocks his head like he is trying to figure out the inner workings of my mind.
Hesitating for a few seconds, I keep staring into his eyes until I feel like I am being pulled into them. Then I feel his hand on my arm, as he grasps it gently. “Are you alright?” He asks with a devilish grin on his handsome face.
I can still see the scar from when the lich marked him. Believe it or not, it only makes me more attracted to him, because now he isn’t absolutely flawless. As I think back to that moment, a chill runs d
After it takes me an hour and a half to get back, I look everywhere. No one is here. When I realize this, I decide to wait for a couple hours to see if he shows up on his own.The first thing I do, is head straight up to my bedroom and take a shower. Then I sit down and read a book. As I sit there my stomach starts to growl and I decide to go down for some food.I look around the pantry and find a couple things to fill my belly with before going back up to my room and waiting. When he doesn’t show up and the castle still looks like a ghost town, I am forced to use my instincts and track him. So, I change my clothes into something more suitable for hunting and then shut the front door behind me as I take a deep breath of the night air.When I look up, I see the crescent moon glowing beautifully in the night sky. There are barely any clouds covering it, so the woods are lit up nicely. “That wi
The minute I heard that he used me as bait, I decided that there was no way I would let him mate with me any time soon even if it was for a good reason. I simply can’t let him that close to my heart if this man is going to use me so carelessly for his own reasons. Knowing full well that if I had been captured again, whatever that was out there would have beaten me or at least held me till Dominic would have given in. So, I lay on this cot even after I wake up, just stewing in my own thoughts and feelings about him. I don’t say anything to a single soul and when he glances over at me here and there, I glare back at him. Sighing, I wish one thing right now. I should have brought a book with me so I could be reading at least. Instead, I must stare over at the two of them watching the screens and wonder why. Why did he do it? He could have grabbed me the minute he saw me enter the castle. But no, he didn’t and why was that
Stretching as I stand up, I yawn and hear my jaw pop before I open my eyes to see Dominic staring at me. I didn’t even sense him in the room, but he is still standing there waiting for me. “Are you awake now?” He asks with an amused look on his face before walking towards me and smirking. I stare at him and ask in a challenging voice, “Yes. Of course. Why? Are you going to use me as bait again?” Then I laugh before continuing, “Did you ever figure out what that is out there? It was hanging in the shadows, so I never spotted it before it came right at me. The whole thing was a blur when you pulled me inside.” I place my hands on my hips before staring impatiently towards him. “Yes. We did. It or rather he, is Alpha Gabriel. He was one of my most trusted advisors. I just hope you can see why this is upsetting me now. The last thing I need is you trying to ge
After hearing voices loudly talking in the next room, I collect myself before opening the door and walking in. Scanning the room immediately after I enter, I see a room filled and they are all talking amongst each other. None of them seem to be paying any attention to the fact that I have just walked in. If an intruder were to get in, no one would have even noticed. Shaking my head, I search through the boisterous crowd to find Dominic. When I do find him, he is sitting at the security camera screens, staring at something outside the door. “What is it?” I place my hand on his shoulder gently while asking louder than usual. Just to make sure I am heard. He turns his head to me nonchalantly and answers, “Alpha Gabriel is skulking in the dark corners where I can barely see him. The best guess is that a vampire I spotted earlier, must have control of him. Why otherwise would he attack and act like this? It is ce
Dominic carries me out of the room and through the crowd. With a determined look on his face, he makes his way up the stairs and through the house. When he finally gets to my bedroom door, he hesitates for a second and then kicks the door open with one loud “thud”. Carrying me into the room, he stares down at me with desire before throwing me on the bed and then standing up to take off his clothes. He hurries along at a feverish pace, till his pants and shirt are flung clear across the room. While I lay there awaiting his return, I stare at his naked body in all its splendor and wonder one thing. How is that going to fit in me? At this point, I am so scared that I find myself drawn to one thing only. Even though his muscles ripple when he moves towards me, the huge erection that is pointed at me is coming right for me. I try to take my eyes off it, but it isn’t until he says my name that I raise my eyes to his and concentrate
As I sleep for the night very comfortably, there is a few times I wake up suddenly when I hear a noise, or something feels slightly off. This one time particularly bothers me though because it’s in the wee hours of the morning when I hear a knocking on the outside of the window. Knowing that we are on the second story, I am quite surprised by this and decide to go take a look.While carefully climbing out of the bed, I make sure to not wake Dominic as I scoot off the edge and slide my feet into my slippers. Scanning the room, I find my robe and hurry to grab it before the chill sets in my bones. Afterwards, I creep to the window so I can see what is causing all the noise.Shocked, I cry out just before a pair of hands grabs me and pulls me out the window. Not being able to see what has a hold of me, I notice one thing and one thing only. Whatever has me smells like death and in the darkness of the moonless night I can only see
Waking up, I stretch and smell the distinct aroma of coffee by the end table. I open my eyes to see Dominic staring at me with a smile stretched across that handsome face of his before I glance over at the cup of coffee waiting for me to sample. “Mm. That smells wonderful.” I say with a dry voice and my throat feels a little scratchy this morning. “Only the best for you my Ana, my mate.” He smiles again before continuing, “So, do you think mating last night was a good thing? By the way you reacted I would have to say you did.” His smile turns to a smirk and then he winks at me before handing me the cup of coffee on the bed. “Mm.” I reply instead of stating the obvious, just as soon as I take a sip of this delicious liquid. Closing my eyes, I savor the flavor of the coffee till he asks me another question. “Was I having a dream early this morning? I could have sworn you were up by the window and my eyes tricked m
As soon as we get back, Omega Dante has dinner ready for us, so we head right on in and take a seat. To the left of me is Alpha Alexander, he is older than the two of us and wiser from what I can tell. He sits there quietly at the table and stares at everyone while eating his meal.On the right of Dominic, is Alpha Zander. He is younger than Dominic by about ten years I figure. His bright blue eyes always are glowing, and his platinum blonde hair almost looks silver as it shines in the moonlight at times. Every time I have seen him, he is covered in potential mates for the night.That one I worry about, because he seems to have taken a liking to me as of lately. Therefore, I am more than glad that he is seated on the other side of Dominic and not by me. I could quickly see this dinner going badly if he had been next to me and then his hand just accidently moves to my knee.Dominic turns to me and gives me a funny l
