Angelica’s POV

Thankfully, I had been planning my great escape from this fortress for years, and I knew my father’s patrols’ habits like the back of my hand. There was a small but large enough gap between his set of patrols that ran the borders of the estate nightly, and I knew the exact time and spot where it happened. It was my only hope of getting off the estate without him knowing, and I just prayed that he hadn’t changed the night patrol after what happened.

Although Selena was still hesitant about me doing this, she agreed to keep my mother occupied, and my father was too busy collaborating with my uncles in his office to even notice me sneaking out the back door. Putting a veil up around me, like Selena had taught me years ago, I walked freely past my father’s men in the back yard undetected, making my way into the forest that surrounded our estate.

Looking down at my watch, I picked up my pace knowing that the window I had was ne

    Angelica’s POV Well, this was definitely not what I had planned, but he did have a vehicle making my journey a bit easier. I knew once we got to the city, I would have to shake him somehow, because I couldn’t allow him to get fully involved. Plus, there was the fact that I had to stay under Uncle Tristan’s men’s radar, as I knew the city was his territory, and the vamps roamed freely around it. Being accompanied by a full-grown Alpha was going to draw a bit of attention to me, and I couldn’t allow his presence to interfere with what I had to do. Thankfully, Joffrey didn’t ask me anymore questions on our drive there about it, making me believe that he truly thought I was nuts, and that he was coming along for entertainment purposes. Regardless of why he was doing this, I found myself thankful for the ride, taking one less obstacle out of my way from finding the warlock that Selena spoke of. Instead of questions, our ride was full of norma

    Angelica’s POV The hotel was exquisite and reminded me of a hotel I had stayed at once as a child, before I had gotten my powers. It was clear that my powers were the reason why my parents stopped traveling with me, as it took years for me to develop how to truly control them, but right now, I am realizing how much I missed out on because of them.The best part of the room was the view of the city, and I couldn’t help but stand in front of the grand windows staring out at the busy streets below, as I now longed to walk them. “Are you sure it’s not safe for us to go out?” I asked Joffrey, who was sitting on the couch, looking at his phone.“Angelica, we already went over this. Your warlock can wait until tomorrow.” He says back to me, as he sits his phone down and looks at me, with a hint of frustration in his eyes, because I keep asking.Looking back out the window, I say under my breath, “It’s not that.”Getting to his feet, he moves by my side, staring down himself a

    Angelica’s POV It took a bit longer than I anticipated to freshen up, especially after I had turned my attention to the bathroom and all the amenities that it had to offer. Now freshly showered and wrapped in the cozy white robe from the hotel, I step out of the bathroom, hoping that my dress had arrived, because to be honest, I was starving after missing dinner tonight with my family. But as I stepped out of the bathroom I froze, seeing the sight in front of me.Joffrey was in the bedroom, without a shirt on and his back turned to me, as he was getting dressed in what looked like a suit, but it wasn’t the suit he was putting on that caught my attention. Don’t get me wrong, I have seen many shirtless men in my lifetime being part she wolf, but I had never seen an Alpha that I wasn’t related to, shirtless.There was a clear difference in body structure between an Alpha and a wolf lower ranked in the pack, and right now I was noticing it for the first time, as I stood th

    Angelica’s POV It didn’t take long after we left the hotel for me to sense that I was being watched, and I had to wonder if it was the dress causing it, or if I was already on the vamps’ radar as their prey. As if Joffrey could feel it himself, his arm protectively wrapped around me, pulling me into his side, showing whoever was watching me that I wasn’t alone. I began to have second thoughts halfway across the street, but the aroma of the food began to tickle my nose as my stomach began to protest to be fed. The smell of alcohol and cigarettes filled my nose, with each passing person, along with heavy sexual pheromones that seemed to heighten my wolf’s interest, as she perked awake inside of me. The sidewalk that led now to the restaurant was packed full of people, as it was clear they were making their way from one bar to the next, while I tried to keep as close to Joffrey, allowing him to guide me safely through them. My once desire to walk among them quickly disappeared, as i

    Angelica’s POV My hands gripped the armrests of the chair, as I tried to hold back my powers, which were now threatening to show themselves, but I knew I couldn’t allow them to, not in front of a whole restaurant of innocent humans. Plus, if I allowed them to take over, then I would be validating my mother’s accusations that I wasn’t able to control my powers yet, and I be damned if I was going to prove her right. “What’s the matter sweet stuff? Cat got your tongue?” He now asked me, as he licked his lips, and began to look from my eyes down my body, until his eyes rested on my chest. My knuckles now started to turn white, as I gripped the arms of the chair even tighter, while I began to hear them crack beneath my hands, knowing that I was holding on to the last ounce of restraint I had left in me. Picking my words very carefully, I finally whisper below my breath, knowing that only he would be able to hear me, “If I was

    Anglica’s POV “Angelica, please give me a minute to explain myself.” Joffrey pleads with me, as I step off the elevator, finding him already on the top floor, realizing he must have taken the stairs. Pushing my way past him, I say to him, “What’s there to explain? You’re a vamp and you want me for my blood.” “Your blood?” He says to me with a confused look on his face, but I am sure it is all part of his act, and I’m not falling for it again, as I head straight towards the bedroom, wanting to get out of this small damn piece of material, he called a dress. Slamming the bedroom door behind me, I begin to pull the dress over my head, but then the door to the room flies open, making me drop the material back down over my body quickly, as I yell out to him, “What the hell, Joffrey.” “I’m sorry…” He begins to say as he turns away from me, making me think that he is going to give me privacy, but then he turns ba

    Angelica’s POV Slowly, I opened the door, before stepping out of the bathroom, and my eyes immediately found Joffrey, sitting on the edge of the bed, with his head hanging low, looking defeated. Awkward silence filled the room as I stood there, not knowing where to start with him, but then he makes the first move by saying to me, “Angelica, please give me a chance to explain.” “Okay.” I said back to him, as I leaned against the wall, thankful that he had made the first move, hopefully telling me what I sought to hear from him. His head rose up to look at me at that moment, and I could see sadness now in his eyes, but also the look of shock that I was giving him this chance to speak. “I don’t know where to start.” He said as he turned his head away from me, like he was ashamed to look at me. “How about you explain to me how you passed Selena’s exam last night at my party.” I suggested to him, wanting desperately to know ho

    Angelica’s POV “So, are both your parents like you?” I asked him, before I took a bite of my steak, that Joffrey had ordered us from room service, as the two of us now sat at the small dining table in the room. “No. My father is a full-blooded Alpha, but my mother though is a hybrid like me.” He explains to me, and I couldn’t help but to ask, “So, your Aunt Rosa, is she a hybrid too?” “Yes, but not the same as my mother and I. She doesn’t carry the wolf genetics.” He now says, making my head tilt to the side as I look at him confused now what else she could possibly be mixed with, but he quickly changes the subject by saying, “So this thing that is after you, what do you believe it is?” Shaking my head, I look down at my half-eaten steak on my plate, as I wished that I could tell him about my family’s history, and how my mother and my ancestors were hunted by the Dark Prince for our goddess’ blood. There was no doubt that

    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

    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

    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

    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

    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

    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

    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

    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
