Rohan “Just as I was about to cut his throat off, my blood dropped and that’s when he went berserk on me,” I said as we stepped out of the elevator. Jarred was paying rapt attention as I narrated my ordeal with Leonardo before he escaped. I was still bugged about him slipping off my fingers. I knew there were detriments to letting him escape and I was guessing that the vampires scouting our territory was one of them. Leonardo was working for Cassian after all. Even at the point of death, he had still lied to me. This showed what a menace Cassian was. He would rather die than betray his master. This made me itch to get a hold of him. There were a lot of things that I wanted him to do. I would torture him until he begged for his life. But of course, that was all a fantasy. I didn’t know where to start. Cassian could be anywhere. And that was what bugged me. He could be here in Pennsylvania or any other state. “And then he ran off?” Jarred asked as we sat by the counter. I sighed,
Cassian I stood in the morning sun, basking in its warmth. The tingling feeling of the sun on my skin never got old. I had felt it for many centuries and still it never got old. Maybe because I saw it more as a gift than a privilege. Beside me stood my mate, Vivian with an umbrella shielding her from the death rays of the sun. She didn’t have the gift yet, and so she would never understand what the feeling was. “How long are you going to do that, Cassian?” She asked, her voice laced with disappointment. “I’m waiting for you to take me hunting.”I sighed and opened my eyes before turning to face her. We had been together for just two centuries but I was beginning to feel that she didn’t understand the privilege of being by my side. She misused it so often and I had been so blind to it until a few decades ago. “You’ve seen the sun?” I asked rhetorically pointing at it. She scoffed and folded her arms, the maid holding the umbrella looking uneasy. She must be fed up too. “I want t
RohanI was getting sick of this place—the hospital. We had to check out all the members of the patrol team to make sure that they were not infected by the vampire that attacked us. There had been just one lost—Eric Simon. I didn’t know him, but I knew that he had a mate and a baby boy. She had rushed into the hospital as soon as she heard the news and had broken down in tears. It was so hard to watch her, especially after realizing that this was all my fault. I should have stopped the patrol team. I should’ve warned them against going out on patrol. There was no threat that he would attack us. The only thing that we had to worry about was the vampires, and they had attacked. At least one of them. I was certain that the vampire had been from the scouting team. They must have left him behind as a souvenir for us. I wasn’t sure of what they were planning anymore. The only thing I knew now was that they had taken interest in us once more. And their plan to wipe out the entire werewolf
DamonI knocked on the door as I stood on the porch of my childhood home. I didn’t like coming back here because of the recent memories I had, but after hearing from the old man about what was going to come there was no other choice. I had to talk to my father. It turns out that there were things he had hidden from me that morning. We talked about vampires in the cafe. If they were truly coming for us, then it was time I heard everything. The door swung open and my mother was revealed. I clenched my jaws as I saw her. She didn’t look pleased to see me either. I wondered how long this act was going to last. She had deprived me of something important. A child who could be my heir. And all in the name of what? Protecting a slave? It didn’t make any sense. But I wasn’t here to talk to her. “I don’t expect you to have come to your senses?” She asked, holding the door open for me. I scoffed and walked into the house. The air inside was warm and rich with the smell of spices. It seemed s
Rohan“I’m so sorry,” I said, rising from the table. Anna’s eyes were glued to me as she searched for answers she wasn’t going to get. “What’s wrong?” She asked. “Where are you going?” I shoved my phone back into my pocket in a hurry. I had to get there in time before something terrible happened to them. “I can’t tell you, but it’s urgent,” I said. “Thank you for the meal.”Stella smiled and my eyes drifted back to Anna who looked dissatisfied. “I have to go, Anna.”She nodded and I rushed out of the house. Time was running out. This was the time I needed Jarred most but he was lying in the hospital which was my fault. I would just have to do this with the patrol squad, and I wasn’t sure that they were strong enough to hold back the vampires. A question struck my mind as I drove through the dirt road heading towards the gates. Why would the vampires come back? Was it another trap? Leonardo had escaped and if he knew Cassian, he would tell him that I was coming. So the pack of va
RohanI slammed my fist against the door as the yellow bulb buzzed above me. It was dark now and the sound of the crickets filling the air irked me. I had no other place to go other than here. And here, it was like a ticking time bomb. With Jarred still in the hospital, I couldn’t stay with him. But he was going to be released tomorrow, and only then would I be able to stay with him. The door swung open and Stella appeared. Her eyes widened in shock as she stared at me. It was no surprise that I was here. This was the only other place I could go. And since I chose to explore the strange imprint between Anna and me, my wolf found it difficult to stay away from her. “A—Alpha,” she stuttered. “I can’t believe it.”“Can I come in?” I asked awkwardly, shoving both hands into my pockets. She nodded and I stepped into the house. The room was filled with the aroma of something sweet and fresh. I could smell spices coming from the kitchen and the sound of a steaming pot left me intrigued.
