The World I Once Knew Chapter 12
For the second time, I woke up to light streaming through my window, with a pounding headache. It looked to be just past noon. My back ached, and I tried to roll over, only to find myself restricted. I slowly opened my eyes to find my mate fast asleep next to me. His arm was wrapped around my waist, pinning me down. He was so angelic when sleeping. A small smile played on his lips. His hair had fallen in his face, covering half his face. I gently brushed it behind his ear, and smiled at him. I felt so lucky. I quickly realized he was shirtless in my bed and I couldn’t help but gape at his perfectly defined 8 pack. His body looked flawless, and it made me want to run my hands all over every inch of him. Hey, stop gaping at our mate, Amanda chuckled. I can hear your thoughts too. But look at him, I sighed. Isn’t he perfect? She purred, Yes he is. “I can hear you, you know,” his voice caught me by surprise, making me jump. My jaw dropped. Oh shit, Amanda grumbled. We forgot about

“What the fuck is going on right now?” I glared at Cole.He threw his hands up in mock surrender, “Your sister found her mate! What did you expect?”I groaned, “I expected her to at least wait until I had met the guy!”He laughed, “You mean like we were about to?”I playfully pushed him away, “You’re insufferable already.”He held a hand to his heart looking at me like I had insulted his mother, “How dare you?!”I shrugged, “Get over it. No one ever said I was nice.”He opened his mouth to speak, but was cut off by another loud moan. I chuckled and stood up stretching. I threw on the nearest shirt, only to find it covered in Cole’sscent. It was his tank top.I glanced down at his red shirt and my black shorts and sighed, “Looks like I’m wearing your shirt today.”“Damn you look good in my clothes,” he purred, coming up behind me and wrapping his arms around my waist and kissing my neck.I tilted my neck to the side giving him better access, and moaned as he kissed and bit

I threw my hands up, “No, I get it. You’re more concerned for him now.” I sounded so heartless, “He takes precedence over me, okay. I’m gonna go drink some coffee since you’re obviously busy.”She shifted in the bed, “I’m so sorry sis.” Her eyes were wide and glistening,“How are you feeling?”I couldn’t help the slight smirk that crept across my lips, and she glared at me.“You asshole!” She shouted, throwing a pillow at me. “You just wanted to interrupt! Stop playing with my feelings.”I caught it and threw it at the blonde laying in her bed, who was clearly trying to cover his hard-on.He squealed and used his arms to block the deadly pillow. The high pitched little girl screech that came from his lips made Rosy and I both laugh. My laugh was cut off by Cole’s hiss.I hadn’t realized that the blonde’s genitalia was on full display, and Cole wasn’t appreciating that his beloved was getting a view.I turned around and smiled at Cole. “Come on love!” I grabbed his arm and drag

**Hey everyone! Early update**We all spun to the front door to find a man in a black cloak standing there. He was about 5’6” with dark brown hair peeking out of his hood, piercing brown eyes, and caramel skin that was perfectly tanned.In his clutches was an older woman with silver curly hair, blue eyes, and she was silently struggling to get out of his grip. If looks could kill, the man would have died the moment this woman made eye contact.We all took defensive positions, closely watching the man and his hostage.“Who are you and what do you want?” I hissed, chugging my coffee and placing the cup on the table.He arched an eyebrow, clearly not intimidated by my tiny self. He turned the woman and Jeremy must have recognized her as he began growling and his claws elongated from his fingers.“Well, looks like someone recognizes this bitch,” the man chuckled, tightening his grip on the woman.Her eyes widened and she struggled a bit more, but we could tell she was losing strengt

I smiled triumphantly, “To the yard it is.” I gestured for him to walk back out the door.His brown eyes were filled with deceit, and I knew he had something up his sleeve. But I also knew I would be just fine with Amanda.You ready for this? I asked her.As ready as I’ll ever be, she growled. He may not be our mate anymore, but this is his mom, and I’ll be damned if she gets hurt on our watch.With a smile at my new found family, we walked outside. It had been so long with just Rosy and I that this new family was something I would lay down my life for.Jeremy played the referee as we situated ourselves in the field. “This is a fight to the death or till one of you gives in,” he started, glancing between Magnus and I.Magnus had stripped to a black tank top and basketball shorts, while I stood in spandex shorts and a sports bra, with my boots on. There were knives tucked into the inside of them, but I doubted I would need them.“There are no rules. First person to fall to the h

The portal felt like jumping into ice cold mist. My feet firmly hit the ground with a thud. While the portal itself was cold, where I was standing was the average weather at home.My eyes blazed purple as I looked around. The spot I was standing in was a circle of dead grass, but the rest of the forest was green and lush. I was surrounded by pine trees and shrubs, with no one in sight. When I turned around there was no portal opening, and no squad.Amanda! You still there? I called out to her.Yep, you’re stuck with me! She yipped. But I’m not sensing any of the group close to us.That’s definitely going to be a problem, I sighed.I spun around and took in the area around me with a grimace.Rosy, can you hear me? I tried to link her.The link was quiet for a moment before my head buzzed.Yep, I can hear you! She exclaimed excitedly. Do you know where you are?I have no clue, I sighed. I’m surrounded by pine trees and Amanda says she can’t sense anyone nearby.That’s going to

"Ghouls are actually a rare species, and I don’t particularly like them, as ironic as that is," she explained.I smirked. “The problem with you crossing over as a part of the living, is that you will bea target. I felt when you all entered. It sent a shockwave over the land to everyone.” What she was saying was concerning, but I listened as she explained. “Because there are the crazies that find the weak points and try to bring the livingback, there will be bounties on all of your heads. The living are a luxury here. They can give, say ghouls for example, a euphoric type feeling if they were to eat you. Living are like heroin down here,” my eyes widened, suddenly concerned she was going to try to eat me. She put her hands up, “Don’t worry, I’m not going to eat you. I don’t want to do that, regardless of the circumstances. I have no desire to become a drug addict today.”She tried to joke, and while I relaxed a little, I wasn’t completely comfortable.“The reason I’m glancing ou

It was another beautiful day at the house. Rosy and I were sitting at the kitchen table drinking coffee debating going into town. We lived about 10 minutes outside of Missoula, Montana. Our parents were gone. They had passed a couple years prior. When they died, they left us the house and the property. It was a nice 2 story home with 5 bedrooms and 2 baths. Both of us smoked, so we had put on a new enclosed front porch the previous year. Neither of us worked as our parents were billionaires and had left their fortune to us. But we didn’t live in luxury. We had what we needed and some of what we wanted.The last thing we wanted to do was draw attention to ourselves. To the civilian world we were just 2 females in their early 20s.What they didn’t know was that we were Guardians. The dead did come back to the land of the living, but with malicious intent. They used Portals, aka Crossing Points, to come over. Their goal was to kidnap the nearest living person and take them back to th
