Ariel. "Are you okay dear? " Cleo says rushing to me but my eyes are stuck on the guy behind her. My mate's grip on me is almost suffocating, and the anger radiating from his body is unimaginable. Did she have to bring him back? I just assured my mate minutes ago about not seeking his help. "What is the vampire doing here? " he forcefully lets out, holding me tighter. "He has all answers to our questions alpha. It's the only way we will find her and Gabriel" Lance is shaking. His teeth are tightly gritted, and the way he is glaring at Alex, makes me want to intervene. "Gabriel has a private hospital that has laboratories, where he carries his experiments. Every victim he captures must be taken there first before he decides what to do with them. Alex suggested we check there first, in case Mira or anyone that might need our help is there"Lance snorts glancing at Cleo like she just spoke gibberish" And what makes you think I'm going to follow your dump suggestion?" his voice is

Ariel. "Gabriel" the angry yell from the door instantly stops my father in his tracks. And just like that, the power he had hold over me is disabled and I fall on my knees with a heavy grunt. Fuck! That was intense. Is he a witch or something? "What are you doing here?" he asks through clenched teeth, turning around with his sword suspended In the air. His hand on the handle of the sword becomes tight and I'm glad it's longer directed to my mate. "To stop you" the guy mumbles and starts chanting words that he knows better, which causes Dad to groan in pain and clutch at his head. The blade in his hand effortlessly drops on the floor with a loud cling. So someone can actually harm him? Noted. I pray he is frying his brains. I Can't wait to see smoke coming from his ears and mouth. And finally he dead. It doesn't take long for the cunning vampire to disappear from the room. Alex and Lance who were in a trance get up with confused expressions on their faces, like they don't know w

Ariel.The hesitation. He doesn't want to tell me. This only means there is so much to Derick, and it just added to my curiosity. "Why do you ask?" he proceeds to massage my scalp and I sigh leaning forward and pressing my palms on the glass wall."He seems sketchy" I whisper. Closing my eyes, I let the sensation from his fingers soothe my mind. I needed this.I will worry about Derick later though. Right now I have to find the two witches. I know James will help me."There is nothing to worry about" Lance murmurs placing a gentle kiss on my temple. There is a lot more to worry about than he can imagine. Either way, I hum in response ending the conversation between us.I tuck myself into the bed with a content sigh at the warmth, and the heavenly scent the sheets hold. This is what I have been missing.It doesn't take two minutes to feel his presence behind me. Lance spoons and pulls me to his masculine body and it's only now I'm realizing how much I missed him.My mate then buries hi

Ariel. "Condition?" I nervously murmur and my mate tense behind me. Please don't be what I'm thinking. "Yes," Derick utters with an amused expression. I'm sure the horror on our faces is entertaining him. "Don't even go there Derick" Lance strictly warns, his grip on me tightening. "Okay," he sighs staring on his lap. His features suddenly appear sad.''I have been talking to Eden and I want to apologize on his behalf" "Wait, wait, where are you going with this?" I lean forward placing my elbows on the table, so I could be close to him. Maybe I heard wrong, he can't be talking about the same guy I want dead. Right? "I think you should forgive him Luna" he whispers almost remorsefully. I scoff turning my head to look at my mate, whose jaw is tightly clenched. After an hour or so of debating and weighing my options, I agree to Derrick's terms and he finally takes us to the pack hospital where the remaining of my victims are fading away. His frail body is almost giving up. He looks
