Ember I woke up feeling like I was burnt out of energy. I looked around, and saw I was in Seth and Carter's room. How did I get here? Last thing I remember... I remember being grabbed when I came downstairs to go back to work. I had woken up, feeling sore, but wanting to get back to work. I remember getting dressed. I remember coming out of the elevator only to see...... someone. who thought. I tried to make out the person. My memory was foggy, and my neck stung, as if bitten by a bee. I looked around the room. I was alone. I heard voices. I heard my name. I tried to focus on the voices coming from downstairs. I had no idea how I was able to hear anything, considering I had never been able to hear far away before. "We need to attack them. To come here, and openly attack this pack and kidnap our mate, means war between packs. " I heard Jordan's voice say. I was feeling a feeling that was not mine. It was rage. I knew it was coming from him. Was this the mate bond? " You know as wel
Damien I knew. I don't know how, but I fucking knew something was off. My mind was foggy after last night's dinner disaster from finding out Ember was my mate. I felt an instant connection with her, and I hated myself for it. I hated her presence, but when my mom attacked her, those feelings went away. A deep need to protect her replaced it, and I hated myself even more for it. Enough to leave after knowing she would be in good hands. The beast in me wanted to rip at my mother's throat and drink her until death. My mother is a bitch, but she did not deserve how I felt last night towards her. I would not let a human come between us. I had to leave. Clear my head. I went to the only place I knew that would make me feel better. Black Diamond. Other than bringing species together, Black Diamond was the only place known for having what we call, givers. Givers were humans who were aware of the supernatural and allowed them to feed from their blood. Givers were taken care of and lived at t
Ember I ended up right back in the same spot as if I had never left when I opened my eyes. My mates were still asleep around me, but I was sure what just happened was real. I was baffled. Somehow, I just ended up transporting myself. I read about astral projection before in books, if that is what I actually did. I would have to search. I looked over and saw Jordan waking up. His eyes were flickering, and he was linking. He looked at me questionably before he broke his connection. " Did you just travel to my club?" he whispered. I smiled, giving confirmation. He laughed silently before his eyes flickered again. "You are full of surprises, Angel," he said, and I blushed. " Damien is probably pissed off with me.", I told him. I felt Damien's emotions raging through the bond and one of them stood out to me the most. Lust. " I can feel him too. I think he is mostly confused and horny", Jordan told me, and I giggled. " He was set up by Emma. She gave him someone called a giver that ha
Ember My stomach growled and I giggled. I had forgotten I had not yet eaten after this morning. He laughed too. " Someone sounds hungry" he joked, kissing my head before hopping off the bed. "Ravenous", I told him, smiling. "For just food?" he asked, putting on his shorts. " Maybe. Maybe something else", I half joked with him. He came to me and kissed me. "After you eat something first. I'm hungry too, and the fellas will be home soon. Wanna join me in the kitchen?', he asked. I smiled. He knew I would never turn down cooking a meal. " Of course. Take a shower with me first", I asked him. I was feeling dirty in a good way, but still wanted to shower. Today has been a long one. "Sure thing. Go ahead of me. I'll join you in a moment", he said. I hopped into the shower, feeling the warm water falling over me. I was sore, but not as much as earlier. My mood was happy, and I knew all of my mates felt it in the bond. I let the day wash away and Seth joined me. His eyes trailed over
Ember I covered the plates in foil and took two bottles of water as I walked through the attic and up the latter leading to the roof. Damien was sitting there, and saw me, but didn't move. Small progress, I suppose. I took his food out of the bag I had along with his water and handed it to him. He looked at it then back up to me. "Please take this plate. It is hot" I told him, looking into his silver eyes. He sighed, then took the plate away from me and the water. I walked to the opposite side of the roof, knowing he did not want me too close to him. He looked at me and I pretended not to notice as I sat down and pulled out my food, starting to eat. The view of the pack land could be seen from here and under the moonlight, it really was beautiful. We stayed silent for a while, eating, and looking out onto the pack land. I decided to break the silence. I looked at him. He was lying down on his back with his eyes closed after he had finished eating, with his hands behind his head. He
Ember Seth and Carter went to work while I stayed at the mansion with Jordan. Seth wanted me to take the week off to clear my mind, even though I told him I was okay. Despite being kidnapped, you would think I would be going crazy. However, I was not. If anything, my main concern was my new powers, and that is what Jordan and I were going to find out today. " Where is Damien?" I asked Jordan. I wanted to be as far away from him as possible at all times. " Kitchen", Jordan said. I focused and could hear him shuffling around in the kitchen. I was still baffled by my tune in hearing lately. " I will wait for him to leave then. I do not want to be around him, period", I told Jordan, who just looked sad. Damien was his best friend, and I was his mate. I knew he didn't really feel like picking sides. " You can go with him and do whatever you need to do. I know where Agatha lives". I told Jordan. "I will complete my duties later. I am more interested in wanting to know what is happenin
Ember Who am I? She asked. " I'm Ember Maze. Human woman. Born and raised in Tallahassee. My parents are human. I'm pretty sure I am too, though I have never started to exhibit powers until I came into contact with all four of my mates ", I told her. "That is because there is more to you than meets the eye, Ember" she says. Yea sure there is. " I am here because I was told you could help me figure out what is wrong with me", I told her. As soon as I said that her eyes turned white. She seemed to morph her body in front of me, and when she was done, a different person stood in her place. She had long black hair that was flowing around her. Her eyes were pure white, and she was wearing a white dress. A rainbow crown that shimmered across her head and she smelled of fresh rainwater. Flowers bloomed around the roots of the tree. It was truly a site to behold. She held her hand out to me. "Ember Maze. My name is Iris. I am the messenger Goddess of Olympus" she said to me. I shook her
Ember "Tell me more about you:", I asked Carter as we sat, cuddled on the couch in one of the living rooms. My favorite movie, Twilight, New Moon, was playing on the big TV. "What would you like to know?", he said. " Tell me about your hybrid." I told him. " There isn't really much to me. I am half vampire, half wolf, " he replied." So, you sparkle in the sun like Edward," I joked. He looked horrified at my question, and I laughed." Absolutely fucking not. This movie is so unrealistic. Sparkling vampires. Ugh", he said, annoyed. I laughed. "At least they got the werewolves right", he said, and I nodded. The werewolves on TV were really just as big as the ones I have seen so far. "The director of New Moon was actually from a pack we just not too long ago visited," he said. "Holy shit", I replied. That explains it. The realism of the wolves in the movie. " What does your wolf look like?" I asked him. " Would you like to see you, Angel?" he asked, and I nodded happily. He jumped
