Gehenna's Inferno - Secrets of Ali のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 11 - チャプター 20

I sit there in silence thinking of all the possible outcomes. Planning on how to handle any situation that may arise from the predicament that I’m in. The girls don’t know of my past or of my parents. Xei is to be my future mate. I’m part vampire and I’m not sure the people in my fathers alliance will accept a half breed. I’m consumed by worry and darkness that the knock at my door startles me so much I jump. With a now shaky voice, I call for whoever it is to enter. Gin strolls in with his perfect dark hair and perfectly pressed suit looking like he just walked off a magazine for Armani. I let my gaze wander down his body taking in the thick muscles that flex softly underneath his suit as he walks closer towards me. He is much like me with how he carries himself. Both born of the Bravata, we know how important impressions are. Everything about him screams calm, collected and dangerous. His dark eyes that naturally narrow just a bit stares at me like he is reading all the secrets I h

“Ali, you have a call.” Mer’s voice cuts through the warm water that is spraying out of the shower head as I wash my hair. “Tell whoever it is I’ll call them back” I pause for a second to see if she’s going to reply before continuing. All is quiet and the warm water flows down my body allowing my body to relax. I lean my head against the back of the shower wall when suddenly the door bursts open and Mer throws the curtain back with a look of panic on her face. “It’s your father.” She says with a look of fear, concern and surprise all rolled in one. She shakes her head and whispers, “I didn’t know you knew him.” Shit. I jump out and throw a towel around myself and race to the phone leaving a trail of water along the way. Whatever it is must be important, he knows never to contact me directly. “Father. What’s wrong?” “I can’t wait any longer, you must come home and claim your place Ali.” I hear him suddenly go into a raging coughing fit. I hear a bunch of rustling around and can te

I leave the room not long after that needing to get my thoughts together. I decide a run is the best way to do that and take off. As my feet hit the ground and the wind brushes past me I think about all the different ways this could work, or could end in disaster. I always liked things simple. Do the job, do the girl, get in, get out. Simple. Ali is anything but simple. I run faster as my lungs begin to fill with the cool evening air and try to drown out the thoughts of her. I need to think rationally. No emotion. I run and run until my body finally decides it’s tired.I end my run at the lake and sit on a large rock and overlook the water. The sun has set and the stars are shining bright. I have no idea how long I sit there when I hear a branch snap behind me. I know who it is before turning around, I can spell his expensive cologne in the wind. “It’s just me.” I hear Gin say.“I know.”“We have to talk.”I exhale a large huff of a breath. “I know that too.”“Do you want her, Xei? Do

It’s been two days since I told everyone about my family. The girls asked a lot of questions but that was to be expected. We have spent the past few days spending as much time together as possible, well aside from that first night. I still can’t believe I did that again. I swear I feel like a damn harlot. With everything going on it’s been easy to push the thoughts of that night out of my mind, at least until I lay down to sleep. I’m plagued with images of each of them each night I close my eyes. Then each night my body hums with need and I can’t sleep until I pleasure myself just to get a little bit of release. It’s frustrating and infuriating, I have never needed sex or anything of the sort before, now I can’t seem to control myself, even when I’m all alone. Luckily, I am leaving in a few hours and I know leaving the both of them here will help me to put some distance and hopefully weaken the bonds a bit. I don’t need the hassle of men in my life as I try to figure out what’s goin

I’m finally home back in Vegas and as much as I’m glad to be home, the sadness of today is weighing me down. To see the man I always knew as strong look so weak and worn reminds me how quickly things can change. I look around my old room and realize everything is exactly the same. The same rainbow bedspread and dolls that cover the bed are neatly paced as if the seven year old me never left. I sit on the bed and sigh as memories of staying up late and having sleepovers with Gin take over. The white walls filled with tokens of accomplishments from training help those memories play out like a slideshow running across my mind. After quickly hanging up my clothes from my suitcase, I take a much needed shower. After I get out I dress, pull my hair up into a tight bun and then make my way to the bed. I lean back on the softness and let the smell of home consume me just as I hear a knock on the door. “Enter.” I call out and lean up to see Xei and Gin enter. Their faces both sho
