All Chapters of Fang Chronicles: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

The arm holding Amy was firm but not tight. She could smell his body. It had a unique scent. She saw his nostrils flare and wondered if he smelled her too. He affected all her senses. She first noticed it when she saw him on the television screen. Having him this close was torture. She didn't know how to make him release her arm. It made her uncomfortable and she could feel the unexpected warmth of his hand. She thought vampires were cold. Her mind still had trouble processing what she saw and heard. She remembered reading a time travel novel many years ago. It was entirely too "way out there" for her, and she kept thinking while reading that the heroine too easily accepted the things that happened.Now, maybe she understood. How do you deny it when someone shoves it in your face? She had a lot to think about and wanted to get everything straight in her head. She did not want to be alone with Marcus.When they arrived outside her room, Amy hesitated. Marcus released her arm and opene

Amy woke at 4:00 am. It wasn't intentional, she just couldn't sleep. The sight of Marcus with his teeth imbedded in Ivan's throat made her think of pure sex. His eyes, at the moment he gazed up at her, were the amber glow she'd dreamed of. It was like nothing she had ever felt. Lying in bed for thirty more minutes did not dispel the alluring visual. She decided to leave the room. As she stirred, Alba touched her hand with a cold wet nose and a low whine, "I'm going to take a walk. Go back to sleep. You need to rest for the babies." Amy had awakened knowing that none of what happened the night before was a dream. Speaking to Alba just seemed natural. Yesterday she was sane and today she lived in an insane world. She could accept that, not that she had a choice. Amy put on a loose shirt and a pair of jeans then headed downstairs. She turned toward the back of the house, made several more turns, and then went out through a side door, where she could see a faint luminescence. She was surpr

As Amy followed Ivan from the house, Alba joined them. She rubbed against Amy's side and in return, Amy ran her hand down her back. Alba was graceful and beautiful. She was also the largest wolf Amy had ever seen. "Are you as large as Alba in wolf form?" When she saw him as a wolf the night before it was at a distance and he had been surrounded by men, not by other wolves.Ivan stopped and reached for the bottom of his t-shirt pulling it over his head. Alba growled at him."I will happily show you whether or not Alba approves."Before Amy could begin to answer, Ivan had his pants down and a wolf, much larger than Alba was standing in his place. Alba didn't even bother to growl, she attacked.Amy let out a startled scream. To her, it seemed brutal. Within minutes Ivan had Alba on her back and his teeth at the smaller wolf's throat. Amy had had enough. She flew towards Ivan. She used her arms and legs and gave him a nice kick in his already sore ribs. She half fell to the ground and

Amy's head was swimming with how quickly everything had happened. She glared at Neil and Jacob. "If you think I'm staying here, you can get that right out of your minds."Jacob spoke first. "We can lock you in the basement if we must. We will not disobey orders. Neither of us has a death wish. If locking you away is what's required to keep you safe, that's what we'll do. It's your choice." This was said with absolute conviction.If Amy had a gun, she would have considered using it. The two of them stared at her as if she were a "thing" they could move at will. The problem was that they could move her if they wanted. Her anger grew as the minutes ticked away.She spent two anxious and fuming hours pacing before anyone returned. Marcus entered first. Ivan was again human and Alba, as a wolf, was at his side. Jacob and Neil made a hasty retreat. Amy had been expressing her anger to them throughout Marcus' absence. Her fury was now boiling over and her words did not express the relief s

Alba's voice dropped, "Lie back, close your eyes, and allow your body to relax. Clear other thoughts from your mind and just think of this room. Columbus is outside patrolling the grounds. You've met him and I want you to picture him mentally. Send your mind in search of him, but don't say anything in your head just think of him and try to narrow in.""I can't." She sat up and her face grew red. "When I close my eyes, I can only picture Marcus.Alba laughed inside her head. "Yes, and you don't close your thoughts so I get them too. Much more information than I need but quite the picture." Exasperation was clear in her voice and she gave Amy a stern look with wolf eyes. They both laughed. "I'll send Columbus a message and tell him to go check out the gazebo. He'll think it strange, but they're used to it when I'm pregnant."A few minutes went by while Amy tried to wipe the mental images of Marcus from her mind."Okay he's at the gazebo. Try to find him."Amy remained sitting and pi
