That night we did not sleep in the same bed but somehow, we were connected. I sat on the floor, a gold chain binding my hands together. My knees were up, head on them in the silence of the night. It had been an hour since Logan slipped in bed. I could not tell if he was asleep or awake. My head turned, staring at the bundle of sheets on the bed with the realization falling on me. I had slightly gained more night vision which meant I was healing. I wondered how long it would take to get my wolf back or if I would be able to get her back at all. The thought left me aching deep in a way I could not describe. “Fall alisialize.” The chains fell away. I twisted my wrists around then placed my hand on the bed, my head on my knees, staring at my outstretched arm. I closed my eyes and drifted into nothingness. My eyes pulled open as my hand was pulled up with large warm fingers lacing through mine. The warmth spread from that hand down my arm to my toes. I wanted to smile but found myself
Rays peaked in from every little space available in the thick dark forest. It was just rare shots of orange here and there. I was seated up, such fascination before me. We passed through one of the larger beams from the sun and that little dose of its heat was amazing. I turned to stare back at it only for us to jump into a clearing. My head turned forward, a gasp pulling from me. I could not help but impatiently tap on Logan’s wolf over and over again. He shook his head but I continued tapping. “Logan, look. The sun.” I pointed as if he could see me. The excitement had me sound like a child. I had never seen the sun so beautiful. It was about to sink over the large white mountains. The sky was colored all thick shades of orange and it was breathtaking. Logan stopped and turned, staring at the amazing sight. I sighed, content. He sat and just watched with my smile finally breaking through. Instead of looking ahead I found myself staring at him. My hand went to the top of his head
The bond travelled up to my head then down to my very toes. His DNA tied with mine and I could feel each and every strand as it sewed itself into mine. He would forever be with me, connected no matter what. I stumbled more into him, the tears falling. It was not supposed to happen. The dread intensified and I wept. “No.” The word kept playing out of my lips over and over. My hands squeezed tighter onto his arm, my nails digging in. His body trembled even harder than mine and the word I kept saying became his own mantra. His arm fell away and he stumbled from me. I nearly fell, turning with my hand on my heart before it stopped beating. His own eyes were wide, covered in glass tears. His hand fell on his bloody mouth, staring at me as he said no over and over. He kept stepping back in shock until his back hit the wall. “No.” He word fell out, his head shaking to enforce it. My stomach turned and I wanted to vomit. “What have I done?” “Logan!” A roar erupted from behind me. I c
Logan I dreamt of the moment a million times but it did not feel the same. I held her tighter as my body shook with my mind in absolute chaos. What did I do? The question kept coming over and over again. I was used to the chaos, to the anger but this….I could not bear the feelings that coursed through my body. “I am sorry.” The words escaped my lips, digging Flavia into me with my arms as she held me just as tight. “It’s okay Logan.” She assured and panicked even harder without even knowing what I was apologizing for. Had she seen the mark? Had she smelt me on Adira? My stomach was in coils, hating myself deeper than before. “I am sorry. It doesn’t mean anything. I made a mistake.” One after another the words trickled out until Flavia placed her hands on my chest and pushed back. I wanted to hold her much longer but she pushed harder. Her strength shocked me. I stepped back, my head hanging in absolute shame. I had betrayed her. “What happened Logan?” The word came out sha
Adira The vampire king pushed the door open to halt in his steps as a toddler came into view, standing on his two feet, slightly bending back then forth. Behind the child were two dragons in the size of a large eagle. My eyes widened because in my whole life I had never seen a dragon. A frown spread on my face, pulling my thoughts from Logan and the vampire queen. How did they have dragons? “How did you get here?” The vampire king exclaimed and it pulled nothing but a giggle from the young child, showing his white teeth. His chuckle turned to a wide grin. My frown deepened yet my heart strings tugged hard. The vampire king bent and picked up the child wearing a khakhi fluffy jumpsuit and sneakers. My eyes trailed to the dragons that acted as guards, their eyes never snapping away from the baby. They rose to the king’s height. He stretched his hand to brush both their heads. Their eyes closed and it set my heart pounding harder. “Do you want to freshen up?” The king questioned with
Flavia was nursing the child and Logan couldn’t take his eyes off her. Such deep longing spoke to me because if my eyes weren’t on him, they were on her too. The tension and awkwardness that hung could suffocate a person. I sat on Logan’s left. It seemed I did not exist, him completely absorbed in his true mate. Dante plated for his mate then himself. He had four plates before him which were over pouring with food. The dragons came flying down and I realized why such large portions of food. The vampire king fed them and it felt like we were interrupting a special family moment. I felt like an intruder. The air sparked with an emotion I could not decipher but it made the hole in my chest larger. My head turned to Logan but he was gone. My appetite was down the drain yet I put a few items on my plate with Logan’s plate left empty. I did not know if to plate for him. It would be awkward when the couple ate and our plates stayed clean. I decided to take his empty plate, pushing mine to
I stood by the wall, listening to the raining water even through the closed door. My hearing was getting better and I could feel my body get stronger even through the conditions I put it through. The water stopped and I waited with bated breath. My eyes trained on the door. I heard Logan brush his teeth before he opened the door. A towel was in hand, ruffling his short hair with another tied on his waist. The scars couldn’t hide the packs he carried on him. They couldn’t hide the deep V that got swallowed by the towel. I did not even release a breath. My eyes trailed back up until they locked with silver-blue orbs pinning me where I was. That bite, it changed something between us. It set something in stone and set our paths for us. Logan stopped ruffling his hair and just stared at me. The tension between us grew. My lower lip got caught by my teeth before it slowly slid away from their capture. “They brought a pair of clothes for you.” His eyes tore to the folded pile on the be
Wet lips made their way up my body until they grazed my jaw to my lips. The towel was gone, feeling Logan’s hard cock brush on my skin with each movement. He was so large it scared me a little yet nothing would stop me from taking him in me. I was wet, dripping, and ready for him. Our lips locked and all I could taste was myself on him. It was a distinct taste and smell that somehow, I fell in love with. My tongue darted up, licking his lips and the corners of his mouth. I licked even his nose until he was dry then I went back to his lips and drowned in them. My leg hooked on his hip, him having settled just right in between my legs. My foot went to his ass, loving how hard it was. His manhood sat on my entrance and it was already chocking me. Sweet trembles took over. We hugged each other so tightly, kisses getting impossibly deeper. “Are you sure?” “All I need is you.” I answered, searching and finding his lips again because it was suddenly a crime not to have his lips on
