Sunstone - Tainted by Enemy's Blood Chapter 41
Angelica’s POV “I need to find Joffrey.” I said to his grandmother, as I stood from my seat, knowing that I had to make things right with him, especially knowing now that we weren’t related but that it was my family who had brought so much pain to his greatest grandfather.I didn’t want him to have to go through what his grandfather had, loving a woman he could never be with. There was no doubt now in my mind why the two of us were brought together, and these feelings that I was having towards him were wrong for me to keep locked away from him.“But Angelica, I haven’t finished the story.” Joffrey’s grandmother called out to me, as I raced towards the front door, and even though I wanted to hear more of her story, my need to make things right with Joffrey right now was more important to me.“I’m sorry, but we will have to finish the story later.” I apologized to her, as I raced outside the house, praying that I could find him.Stepping off the porch, a gust of wind shi

Angelica’s POV My wolf was doing her best to keep up with the creature, but as the mountain stood now in front of us, we both knew that eventually we were going to have to cross back over the river if we wanted to stop the creature before it got to Joffrey. I began to rack my brain at that moment, trying to figure out a way to stop the beast, as it was clear that my Goddess power had no negative effect on it, making me now believe that the creature was sent by the Gods, but why. The only thing that I knew about the creature was that it didn’t like water, as I was sure that the flame that fueled it would die, ultimately killing the beast itself. Unfortunately, I didn’t know the land here, to know where I could lead it away from Joffrey to a major source of water. As the river steered to the right, and the creature began to ascend the mountain that I was sure was towards Joffrey, my wolf let out another warning howl to Joffrey, before she

Angelica’s POV Thick fog now plagued the air around us as we neared the lake’s shoreline, impairing my wolf’s vision to see acrost it. It was apparent that the creature’s body was still beneath the water’s surface, causing the fog to enhance at the rate it was. My wolf let out a howl, and it echoed through the valley, rippling off the surface of the lake, as if she was calling out to Joffrey. Silence filled the air around us, as we both waited to hear him reply, but nothing came, and my wolf dropped to the ground, while her pain became my own. As my heart felt like it was breaking into two, I felt my wolf beginning to retreat, allowing me to shift back into my human form without asking her, telling me that she sensed something was gravely wrong. Standing there now in my human form, I stared out into the lake, as I grabbed ahold of the sunstone around my neck, praying to Selene to allow me to use its power to save Joffrey from the depts o

Angelica’s POV “Oh my, what happened to the two of you?” Joffrey’s grandmother asked, as we walked onto her front porch, both naked and covered in dirt, dripping wet from the pouring rain, and this was not how I wanted her to see me. “We were attacked by a creature not from this world.” Joffrey tells her, and her eyes widen as she moves her hand to cover her mouth, while Joffrey motions for me to enter the house, and I quickly head for the stairs, needing to wash myself clean and put on a set of fresh clothes. Heading straight for the bathroom, I hopped into the shower, letting the hot water run down over my head, allowing it to warm my flesh, as I closed my eyes and leaned against the wall, wondering how I was going to find the strength to get through this. Just days ago, I thought I had the power within me to stop this, but the more I learn, the more I realize that the power I have within me is so minute compared to what we are up agai

Joffrey’s POV For many moons my family couldn’t understand how my greatest grandfather had lost the challenge by Angelica’s uncle, or should I now say his brother, as ruler, but now it was all making sense to me. If what Angelica was saying was true about what he had done to her ancestors for their power that lies within their blood, then he had stolen the crown from my greatest grandfather and my family, just as this heir was trying to do. As Angelica continues to finally tell me the truth about her family, I began to realize this wasn’t just Angelica’s fight. The two of us were brought together for a reason, and it was so much more than just a mate bond, as I began to realize that it was fated by the Moon Goddess to undo what injustice had been done. With Angelica’s mother taking the life of the vamp responsible for taking the crown from my greatest grandfather, it had reset the wheel of time, and our destinies of our two families bein

Angelica’s POV I stared at Joffrey in disbelief that he was accepting the fact that his soul was to be collected by Hades, and instead of worrying about it, his focus was on saving all of us. How did he expect me to just forget what we had just learned about his fate and focus my attention on what we initially came here for. Even as he begins to say to his grandmother, “You need to tell us everything you know about the sunstone and its powers...” My mind wasn’t focused on what either of them were saying, but on him, as I just stood there staring at him, realizing that he was giving up his future, a future that I thought just moments ago was destined to be with me. “Angelica, did you hear that?” Joffrey says to me, as he waves his hand in front of my face, pulling my attention partially back to the present, as he says, “You have the blood of a Goddess, which means you should be able to unlock its powers.” I just stood ther

Joffrey’s POV “What the hell was she thinking? She could have killed herself. It’s clear that the sunstone is too powerful for even her to control.” I said to my grandmother, as I sat on the edge of the bed, holding Angelica’s petite hand in mine, praying that she was going to be okay. “What she was thinking was that she would do whatever it took to save you. She is more powerful than you give her credit for.” My grandmother said as she placed her hand on my shoulder, trying to calm me, but her words did quite the opposite. It was clear that Angelica’s focus was no longer on why we had come here, but on me. For days I had pushed her to feel the bond between us, and now I am seeing that I shouldn’t have. If I had just left well enough alone, she wouldn’t be focused on me and my situation, but on taking the heir down. I had brought her here against my better judgment, and now that she had heard my family’s history, there was no turning bac

Angelica’s POV Something had changed in Joffrey’s mind set, making me wonder what happened to cause him to change his mind about me tapping into its power again, but I wasn’t going to question it right now, as long as he was willing not to just hand his soul over to Hades once this was over with. Stepping outside with my hand in Joffrey’s, I spotted his grandmother standing in the middle of the front yard with a woman in a black cloak. The woman’s head instantly turned to look in our direction and as soon as our eyes met, I could sense that she wasn’t just any woman, but a very old and powerful witch. As we walked towards them, I heard Joffrey’s grandmother saying, “Thank you, Carla. I am sorry for having to call upon you, but I had no other choice.” “Madam Eleanor, please do not apologize. I am forever in debt to you and your family for what you have done for me. I have made sure that your land is secure, from the creatu

Sunstone - Tainted by Enemy's Blood Chapter 93
Angelica’s POV My Uncle Bishop and my father began to move around the ballroom trying each of the doors for themselves, but none of them would open, making me wonder if it was my turn again in this game the heir was playing with us. How many trials of fear was the heir going to make us face, and was this game he was playing with us ever going to end? Fear began to sink into me, that this was our hell, and that we were going to be trapped in it for the rest of eternity, as I stood in the middle of the ballroom floor, deciding on which door to pick. Letting go of Joffrey’s hand, I moved to the back of the ballroom to the door that led outside, hoping that it was the door that would lead us out of this hell of a game. But as I took a deep breath, and placed my hand on the handle, I realized quickly that the handle wasn’t moving, making me wonder what game the heir was playing with us now. I wanted to scream out in frustration, but I held it
Sunstone - Tainted by Enemy's Blood Chapter 92
Angelica’s POV I knew by the look on Joffrey’s face that he was scared to see what lay on the other side of the door, but we had no other choice, as the debris continued to fall through the hole, pushing us to face it. This time my father grabbed a hold of my arm, pulling me in front of him, as Joffrey finally opened the door and stepped inside. Stepping through the door to join Joffrey, I wondered what his worst fear could have been, but as my eyes focused on the room around me, I was stunned to see where I was standing. Joffrey stood in silence with his head down in the middle of the ballroom at my parents’ house, as if he was ashamed to look at anyone, making me wonder why or how the night of my ball could have been his biggest fear. It was definitely one of my own, because it was the night that the heir had first violated me by siphoning my powers, but I didn’t understand how it was his. “Well, isn’t this interesting.” My father says
Sunstone - Tainted by Enemy's Blood Chapter 91
Angelica’s POV As my father opened the front door, a white light beamed into the cabin, before my father stepped into the light, without a second of hesitation, knowing with what I had just said, that the door would lead him to my mother. But as we stepped through the door, unfortunately my mother was nowhere in sight, and we stood in what looked like a basement, with a huge hole in the floor above our heads. A growl instantly radiated from my father, and my Uncle Bishop quickly moved to his side to comfort him, knowing that my father failed to take us to my mother, even though I know he tried. It was clear his darkest fear still lay there the night he thought he had lost my mother to Tyler, and that was where the heir had taken us with the little game he was playing. “There is still hope. We are now inside the house. Maybe the heir is somewhere inside the house with them.” My Uncle Bishop tells my father with hope, but I knew that was a
Sunstone - Tainted by Enemy's Blood Chapter 90
Angelica’s POV “What the bloody hell?” Joffrey asks, as he quickly moves to my side, while my father says, “This is impossible.” As he races towards the window, peering outside. “I don’t understand. How are we in my cabin?” My Uncle Bishop asks, while he begins to look around, moving from room to room, as if he was looking for something. Moving away from the window, my father begins to shake his head, and I can see the dread in his eyes, thinking that we were hundreds of miles away from my mother, but in reality, I knew we weren’t, or at least I prayed we weren’t. A loud click came from behind us, making us all turn to see my Uncle Bishop coming out of his bedroom with a shotgun in his hand, while he says, “This mother fucker wants to play games, then games are what we will play.” Just as those words came from his lips, there was a knock on the front door, making us all turn to now look at it, as a voice e
Sunstone - Tainted by Enemy's Blood Chapter 89
Angelica’s POV The brighter light that we had seen at the end of the tunnel we were in only proved itself to be a mouth that opened to three new tunnels and a choice that needed to be made. My father and my Uncle Bishop stood before the three tunnels arguing with each other on which tunnel they should take, knowing that time was precious, and my mother was somewhere here on the grounds, or even beneath the ground like we were. Stepping away from Joffrey, I moved in front of the first tunnel, closing my eyes, as I opened my senses, trying to sense the heir’s powers, as I focused down that particular tunnel, but felt nothing. Slowly, I moved to the next tunnel doing the same thing as they continued to contemplate which tunnel to take, but I still felt nothing, making me think that I was stupid to think that I could figure this out for them. I was about to give up, as my father was insisting on taking the first tunnel, when I felt a slight
Sunstone - Tainted by Enemy's Blood Chapter 88
Angelica’s POV Stepping through the front door, it didn’t take me long to realize that we had just stepped through a portal, and we were no longer above the earth’s surface, but in what looked like a caving system, deep beneath the ground. “What the hell?” Joffrey said, as he held my hand tightly in his, pulling me back towards him, while the two of us took in our dimly lit new surroundings. Just up ahead of us, I faintly could make out the silhouettes of my father and my Uncle Bishop, as the two of them move towards a more predominant light at the end of the tunnel we were now standing in. Taking a deep breath, I began to slightly cough, as the air seemed stale to me, like it had no ventilation to the fresh air on the earth’s surface, making me wonder how deep beneath the surface we were. Knowing that we needed to keep up with my father and my uncle, I went to take a step forward but found myself reaching for the wall of
Sunstone - Tainted by Enemy's Blood Chapter 87
Angelica’s POV “Let’s keep going.” My father said turning as he began to walk towards the front gates, with my Uncle Bishop by his side, as Joffrey stood there waiting for me along with Ambrogio. I knew I couldn’t keep this revelation to myself, as I was now sure that the telus the heir had still was working at full capacity. If I let all of them walk in there without this knowledge, I was possibly leading them all to their deaths, and I couldn’t do that. “Wait!” I called out, stopping my father and my uncle from taking another step, as they both turned and looked in my direction. Now that everyone was staring at me, I had to find a way to tell them that the telus was still working, without telling them everything that I now knew, which was going to be hard to do. “Something isn’t right.” I finally said, making Joffrey move closer to my side, as if he was trying to protect me from what I was about to say.
Sunstone - Tainted by Enemy's Blood Chapter 86
Angelica’s POV Unfortunately, the bliss from our union only lasted its duration, as reality came rushing back this time like a freight train, while I realized we no longer had the upper hand on the heir. We were now heading to his territory, and on his terms, and he had hostages, making me pray that I had the strength to overcome what was needed from me. My mind was on overdrive trying to piece everything that had happened together, knowing that it all had to have a symbolic meaning to his plan, but what I couldn’t understand was the whole Talon and reversal of the spell of the telus. I mean the reversal spell had to have worked, I had felt my own powers returned to me that he had taken from me, but it didn’t make sense to me. Now that we knew that his plan was to resurrect his father, I would have thought that he needed as much power as he possibly could to perform whatever spell he was planning to use. By him giving up the power of the
Sunstone - Tainted by Enemy's Blood Chapter 85
Angelica’s POV “I would travel to the ends of the world as long as it was with you.” I finally admitted to Joffrey, as I secretly prayed that we got the chance to do this, because I knew this was his dream, and the fact that he wanted me to be a part of it made it even more special. “That was the answer I was hoping for.” He whispers to me before his lips crash against my own, sending sparks of electricity throughout my entire body. It was crazy how my body reacted to his touch, another part of my greatest grandmother’s blessing I assumed to her creations, to never fall out of love with each other, making me wonder if her own love still ran this deep for Ambrogio after all these moons. Something though told me it did, or why else would she continue to bless her creations with a mate to love them unconditionally. Joffrey slowly pulled from the kiss, as he stared into my eyes, and says to me, “Something is plaguing your tho
