“So this person, when did you first meet her?” Alex asked looking straight at me with interest, they all were but my eyes were solely focused on the Delta, his scarred, horrendous face remained as I had remembered it.“Go on hag, kill me!” He had said placing my hands on his chest. I wanted him to say that again, and this time I was going to give him what he asked but for now, I stuck to my tale. As soon as I had placed my hand on my mom’s, I could hear all her thoughts of me being cursed by a witch and how that was the reason I acted strangely.“It was on the night of the full moon ritual, the day I turned eighteen,” I said, staring down at my finger, I twisted them nervously.“She had met up with me at the little shop by the corner, right before the waterfalls and had asked for my help with something and seeing how old and frail she was, I went with her to help. It was then she grabbed me and began whispering things into my ears, I don't know what exactly she said but she released

I was dressed in a pretty pink blouse on a black, flowy skirt, paired with my mom's silver earrings. My hair was put up in a ponytail.“You always look so pretty with little effort Alena, I'm so jealous,” Marina whined from on top of my bed where she was flipping through some old novels I stocked.“I totally agree, it's those eyes of hers, and the hair, and the face, and everything.” Sophie, another friend of ours, said exaggerating from the open toilet where she was applying gloss on her lips in front of my newly replaced mirror.I flipped my hair for effect chuckling as I dodged the pillow Marina threw at me.“C’mon,” Marina said, jumping down from the bed. “We’re going to be late.”We were dressed for dinner at the most popular inn in town, Hailey, another friend of ours was having her birthday dinner and our parents had permitted us to go. It had unfortunately taken a lot more pleading and convincing for my dad to budge after all that I’d gone through these past days but eventuall

A sorcerer and a Vampire hybrid, that was who I was - an abomination, a crossbreed that should have never happened but had. I had been a mistake, I didn't have to be told that but I knew it. It was why my mother had left the security and safety of living with her kind and brought me to be raised far off from everyone else, just the both of us.She had met him, an injured Vampire who had come into her small village for treatment and I had happened one night, and then she was punished with me. Sorcerers were meant to mate with only two species: their fellow sorcerers and humans. Any other mix was a disaster, usually, the children from otherwise interbreed were born deformed and brought great calamity into the land they were born into.When they had found out, Mother was pardoned for being a promising sorcerer otherwise, she was meant to have been killed with me inside of her, and instead, she was to birth me and I was to be killed, that was the plan until the last few days before my bi

The first thing I felt when my eyes opened was a tingle in the spot where I’d been marked. My hand went to it gently caressing it, and a small smile formed in my face.We were yet to be bonded fully but this was something, to complete the full bond, we were to hold the crowning ceremony first and after that, I would become the Luna before mating with the Alpha to complete it. “Hey,” Damon said, rolling over, an arm wrapping around my body. I felt happiness fill me at this, it was the mate effect, I reminded myself. Whatever I felt now had nothing to do with my own will and I was no longer going to try to suppress it, but deep inside I knew what I truly felt for this man and that was hate, the feelings for him that were not subjected to a higher being’s control and left to my will was raw disgust - disdain at his presence, revulsion at his touch and absolute contempt at his existence.I turned to him with a smile on my face, my eyes closed as I hugged him closer, snuggling deep into

I felt my instincts kick in at the person’s presence and I was going to unleash right as the hand released me, my nostril instantly filled with the pleasant smell of another.“You’re lucky,” I said, sending him a glare. “I was ready to rip out your limbs.” He settled himself on a dressing table that seemed to have been abandoned seeing as it was in the small closet Damon had dragged me into.“Of course, you were, by thrashing against my hold as you had been, I was afraid you were going to knock me dead.” He said.I shook my head at him, a small smile on my lips before I looked around.“What are you doing here?” I asked, suddenly aware that I was just in my undergarments which consisted of a pantyhose, panties, and brassiere.His arms encircled my waist drawing me closer to him with a boyish smile on his face. He buried his head in the crook of my neck and inhaled.“You smell so good.” He groaned, his lips on my skin causing me to shiver slightly.“It’s the mate effect, I actually sme
