Demonic Mission
Peak Mountain, Black Mountains, Battling Border
RADIX MALORUM
“Go out, you have a mission." Radix told his fiercest Commander. "You will find where those, from the sky,” He added in a mocking tone. Disdain obvious. “Come through. Where they land. Follow the Knights. They’ll be drawn to the new souls, to protect them. If you wait, if you are patient…And if you trail them. One of them will lead you to the new generation.”
Of Watchers.
“What then?”
“Then we will see if you and your kind can convert them for me. I will need their help in the battle to come.”
Watchers become some of the most powerful of my Cimmerii.
“And if cannot?”
“Then, like the Fallen, they will die.” Radix looked a little worried at this.
A horrible waste. But better than them landing in the hands of the Forever Knights.
Though Radix's enemy was only

The Taming A Holiday
WaterRose, Meadow Mountain, Grier Country Elsabet wandered to the stairs as Sebastian dragged in a wiltry tree from Warlock Grove across the moor. She stepped near the banister and frowned down at him. Watching his progress. They’d spoke minimally since he’d returned from the battle and Rhyers had reprimanded her for not offering him comfort. They’d both been avoiding the other. I don’t know what to say to her. “What are you doing?” Her voice cut into his thoughts. “It’s nearly Christmas.” He straightened to remark. Her long look told him she’d no idea what this meant. Truly? “Are you being sincere, Little Harpie?” You don’t know? She blinked at him, passionlessly. “Come down here.” He invited. Perhaps get a little closer… Her lips tightened and she shook her head adamantly. Backing from the stairs to return to her chamber. He heard the door click.
The Taming Panther in Her View
She’s been my captive five years now. Sebastian mused as he heard Elsabet’s light step roaming the corridors. She’d discovered the many floors of WaterRose, the Flood Room below and the endless solars, parlors and decorated chambers above. She came to an abrupt halt. She senses me. He realized. When she spun about, he moved into the shadows to avoid her gaze. She glimpsed the silken black creature with yellow eyes moving along the dark side of the hall on silent paws. A far cry different than the tiny slithering thing she’d seen with him years ago. “What are you?” She squinted to see him creeping in the cracked door of Bast’s chamber on the second level. The torchlight seemed too bright to keep the creature in such dark shadows. Squinting hard, she saw the faintest outline of what looked to be feline vanishing past the door. Long tail disappearing inside. She shook her head. Stepping quietly to peer into the c
The Taming Tev's Idea
“What was that ruckus about?” Marcus Teverius asked. Me discomforting a beautiful woman. One who stared at my body like a next meal. One I’d like her to test. “My little ward.” Sebastian shucked his breeches again and slid back under the blanket, just as Teverius appeared in the doorway. “Taunting her again?” Always. “Every opportunity that arises.” He nodded. Shifting under the coverlet to get comfortable. It dawned on Tev that Bast was just now settling there. “Were you naked a moment ago?” Whenever possible. “I’m still naked.” “Uck!” Tev tossed up his hands and moved from the doorway. “We’ve talked about this. You always prop your chamber door when you should be closing it.” “It’s a mite stuffy.” Bast’s nose wrinkled in distaste. “Anyone can walk by…” “Don’t worry little brother. Someday you may be as big and strapping a lad, as I.” “
The Taming Holidays
WaterRose, Meadow Mountain, Grier Country SEBASTIAN Snow had begun falling on Meadow Mountain. And with it came Sebastian. Dragging in a wiltry tree he’d cut down. Dusty white flakes fell softly with no wind to disturb them. Coating the land in a white haze. Frosting branches until they shimmered beneath a coating of chilled fur. The flowers ever in bloom in the valley around WaterRose remained the same under the icy coating suspending the petals. Sebastian smelled the bread Elengard was baking and saw candles were already brightening every window. He glimpsed the valkyrie at the end of the hall on the second level. Peering down to watch him drag it through the foyer. A silvery plait circling her crown and coming down over one violet-clad shoulder. He felt her penetrating gaze studying what he did. Every year she watches me. She’ll stand in the shadow of the stair dais and
The Taming We Try
WaterRose, Meadow Mountain, Grier Country (Six years after stars fell) SEBASTIAN Six years of checking on the little Watcher girls had passed. Six years of watching the eldest, a redhead, grow to the tiniest brunette infant only born a few months ago. Six years we’ve been guarding them. But tonight, Sebastian woke to a nightmare. Marcus Teverius’ torn screams ripped through his mind. Agonized shouting for help. The kind of broken call, I’ve rarely heard before. Bast ripped free from the furs covering him, willing clothes to materialize around his body as he took the stairs. Joining Elsabet at the foyer door, he shouted to the bridge tower. The drawbridge lowered. Thank you, Dimitrius. Bast’s heart was thrumming in his ears. A kind of sick dead filling his spirit that made him feel cold. Elsabet was mesmerized by the flash of white in the darkness. The
The Taming The Things I Know
WaterRose, Meadow Mountain (Elsabet captive for seven years) Sebastian had been watching Elsabet over the last few years. Using his small magic globes, he could see her wandering the halls, investigating the chambers. Inspecting all the levels of the stronghold. For a way out. He knew. She’d long ago found the arching doorways of a main atrium, emerging from below the dais where the stairs split into mirrored reflections of each other, curving up to pass all the floors. The second level was the personal chambers of the knights. The third level had more unique rooms such as a garden room, a full nursery with an adjoining chamber for a nanny or nursemaid, and several solars. And more rooms that broke onto the balconies squaring around the Northwest corner of the castle. It was clear much thought was put into beautiful design work and winding rooms. Many interconnected. Passageways could be found behind
The Taming A Big Dangerous Animal
Her eyes flicked to the meager distance between them, eyes widening as she realized he was right. She leaned toward him. Only a couple inches now separating them. She was drawn like a magnet. Her face upturned and lips nearly pressed to his. “You’re a devious, rogue.” Her face hardened. When I’m with you. “Aye.” He nodded with a lopsided grin as he caressed her chin. “That I am.” She pushed past him. But he caught her arm and swung her back around, pushing her against the wall and pinning her with his weight. One hand brushing along her jaw to cup the back of her neck. Ready to hold her in place if she fought. Unable to resist the temptation any longer, he stole her mouth. Tasting every sweet corner of it. Taking in her scent, swallowing her breaths. When she did muster enough sanity to try and object, he swallowed that to. When she tried to push away by lurching her hips forward, he met her there. Pressing his already
The Taming Telling Deragan What We Lost
Deragan’s Country House, Mane Countryside Sebastian had gone to tell Deragan they’d lost the Watchers. Against every fiber of my being. His step had slowed every inch he got closer to the town house he knew his Alpha was residing in. Doing his best to go unnoticed. Sebastian knocked and entered the echoing house as his Alpha bid, on leaden feet. His booming voice ricocheting through dark, empty halls. It was a far smaller structure then WaterRose. But feels much colder. More hollow. Sebastian was having a hard time meeting Deragan’s gaze now. He’d seen the flash of rage and disappointment and could tangibly feel the sense of soul-deep frustration as he sat unmoved on a chair in his Parlor. Blinking slowly at Sebastian as his square jaw hardened. Sebastian explained Tev had been taking the map from Acharius’ hideout to WaterRose for safekeeping, but the Cimmer
