Luke: Avoiding His Mate
*Luke*
Luke jumps back in his truck, turning into the dirt road. One more delivery, then he can crawl back into his dungeon, literally. His darkroom at Thorne Castle awaits until The Boss contacts him with his next assignment. Smuggling black market goods was a stressful and challenging job, but the job was perfect for him. He hardly cared about frivolous things such as human laws and it kept his mind occupied.
Today was different. He couldn't stop thinking about his new mate, Selene. Luke hisses at the idea of her. How could the fates be so cruel- A faerie for a mate!? Faeries are despicable creatures and consider themselves superior to vampires. The tension between the faeries and vampires has been present for as long as Luke can remember. Older vampires claim that it started five hundred years ago during an All Hallows Eve Festival. The two species had an agreement to cohabitate peacefully together. On All Hallows Eve, the vampires prowled out at night, seeking hu

"Maddie, who is G?""You must have many questions." Maddie dodges Selene's question."I think you have enough to process- for now."Selene doesn't understand why Maddie ignored her. Why couldn't she know G's identity? The woman had saved her life! How would she start to understand her magic if she didn't know the benefactor? "Am I going to be able to control the magic, or will it keep be random, like with my vision?"Maddie leans against the small bench separating the kitchen and the hallway. "I'll help ye with that, dear. I'll teach ye control and how to harness yer powers through emotion. Yer vision was conjured about by you're stress, what were ye thinking about before it happened?""Luke and how he became an arse." Also, why were Maddie and Luke close?

The Accidental Hybrid and The Betrothed Luke: His Jealousy
