LOGIN“It is rather unbearable to contemplate living in conditions like these,” High Chancellor Mason replied, somehow managing to sound both sympathetic and utterly detached. “Surely your time would be better spent in an environment conducive to your important work.”
“And whose fault is it that these conditions exist?” I asked pointedly, crossing my arms
Icarus.“The loud beating of heart is ruining the tour, Icarus,” Xena said casually as we walked together in the heart of the forest.I was anxious to know what she intended to do to me. I was thirsty and hungry too. I had not eaten or drank anything for the past ten days except the squeezed apples which did next to nothing to sate my hunger.I heaved a tense -filled sigh and tried to slow down my heart beat but it was no uses. “I am thirsty,” I said.“And that is why your heart is racing?” she looked at me with a raised eyebrow. “That makes no sense.” I wa
Icarus.I flew over Xena’s head as he made to grab me midair. It was a long way down from the roof balcony. I landed on the toes of my feet and did a forward roll my right shoulder to contain my fall before I sprang up and broke into a fast desperate run.I knew that it would be a mistake to glance back to see if Xena was giving chase because I knew she was. She was a faster runner that me, she was a better tracker than me and she was a better fighter than me.However, she was not a better hider than me. I grew up here and I knew various secret spots hidden around the Stone Estate. I could feel her close on my trail but I did not stop. I spotted a fig tree few feet from me and ran towards it. I jumped and activated my claws before sinking them deep into the body of the tree. I began to hastily climb it until I reached the top. If memory served me correctly, as a cub, I used to hide some homemade weapons somewhere in the branches.I reached into the hole of one branch and almost y
Asher.“Jealousy does not suit you, Ava,” I joked as we walked into the studio of the fifth talk show. I did not care to remember the name because it served no purpose. That job belonged to Andrea. She was my social media analyst and she was too damn good at her job.Of course, Ava had taken a great dislike to me hiring her personal assistant, hence the partial cold shoulder she had been given me during the past few days. I knew that there was a question on her mind that she was wanted to ask me but out of respect for my position as the Alpha, she had kept it to herself.I grabbed her hand and pulled her to a stop. She looked impeccable as she dressed in her business attire. Her suit
Magnus."Why would you want to help me?" I asked as my suspicion grew. There wassomething strange about him. I knew that he was a werewolf but I felt nopower coming off him.He shrugged."I am curious about how you plan on taking down one of theAlphas," he replied with the same nonchalant shrug."That is all you gain?" I asked in disbelief."A satisfied curiosity?"He shrug.ged."You have no reason to believe, my good man. I see that youare trapped in a game you have no desire to play and I offer you a way out.It is your choice to decline or accept."I was beyond intrigued now. The chance of finally escaping the witch'scontrol was possible."What do we do?" I asked."You don't have to do anything at all," Alistair replied to me. He reached intohis jacket and produced a syringe with a black liquid in it's plastic container.He dr
Magnus.I stood among the dead for hours.I was appalled by how unfair it was that they all had to die.The witch has connected me with all the Rejected and I knew immediately when a number of them died. It was their death that drew me here.I sniffed the air and realized two things as my nose picked up two distinct scents. The witch had been here hours ago. I wondered what she had come to do here.The second scent belonged to Alpha Tertius and I was certain that he was behind this massacre.Was he hunting the Rejected again? Even after the Dialogue Treaty that made it legal for my kind to roam freely, Dominic Stone still hunted us.It was a very gory sight. Bodies torn and ripped apart. Intestines and brain matters mashed up like potatoes.Thick coagulation of blood was everywhere. I had never wanted revenge more than this moment in my life. I pictured myself with Dominic's heart in my hand as it dripped with his blood.I l
Kieran.I smiled in contentment as the smell of fear filed the whole conference room. The twelve shareholders were here and I could tell how deeply uneasy they were. Some of them were leaving this conference room alive, some of them were going to die here and it all depends on how they responded to I and Sia’s demand.If they were with me, they got to walk away with their lives but if they were not, they died on the spot.Sia sat at the head of the table like the CEO that she was destine
Sage.The assortment of delicacies Marcus made lightened up my mood. My stomach rumbled at the sight of his cuisine. “When did you have time to learn all this?” I asked with a stunned expression. “I have more time on my than you think, Sage,” he replied heartily. “Please have a seat.”Asher pul
Sage.Avoid him at all cost. I thought to myself as I settled down on the soft bed in the east wing of Silver Crest Library. I did not bother asking where Asher was in the building as I did not want to know.I removed my trench coat, my shoes and stripped down to my undies. The silence was sooth
Kieran.I was stiff with the feeling of disgust as the limousine gently eased to a stop inside the compound of Thorne. Expensive and vintage cars were lazily and hastily parked. Scattered across compound like dead flies. I knew that I was going to hate it immediately.The chauffer silently open
Asher.I was in a void. I was floating in hot smoke and it burned my th
