LXXXII: Council MeetingAlyssa's POV After the news of some werewolves being murdered left and right, the council finally called for a meeting between the leaders of humans, werewolves and vampires. The council consists of the most respected people around the world—not only because of their status, but also because of their influence. They are not the wealthiest or even strongest, but they are chosen because of strong leadership and intelligence. They do not care for the title or position. They are just and they have always been on the side of justice. For thousands of years, they have done nothing but maintain peace among us and they must be bothered by what's happening. Seymour and I, all the alphas, and the presidents from affected countries are summoned. I could tell how tense Seymour was because everything points to the vampires and he knows he will be grilled, especially because Knox was one of the Alphas who were required to attend. I know Maurel, being the current Alpha of

LXXXIV: A Wolf in Barcelona Alyssa's POV"I'd love to go with you, but you know that I'm still tied with the current issue going around, darling. If I get the chance, I'll catch up, hmm?" Seymour apologetically said before we boarded the jet. "And I'm sorry if Otis and Sam can't go with you this time, but trust that Hector and Edward's skills are just the same." I needed to leave for Barcelona to attend an exhibit especially dedicated to me and I don't want to miss it. Because it's only been a few days since the trial, people are still on edge, especially because of the missing humans. We were told that Seymour's cousin couldn't be arrested because of the lack of enough evidence, and maybe this is his way of retaliating against us. I'm happy that the killing of werewolves seemed to have stopped, but now humans are the victims. I stood on my toes and pressed a kiss on his cheek. "It's alright. I understand you more than anyone. I know you are needed here. Who knows if something terr

LXXXVI: Proven InnocentKnox's POVI didn't feel any regret when I broke the rule and disregarded my own safety to save Alyssa. I knew that I couldn't beat the assassins and Alyssa might die of blood loss and silver poisoning. At that moment, I didn't care about myself and all I could think of was to save her. And the moment I was told she could have died if I was late for a minute, I knew I made the right decision. I didn't resist as the Interpol arrived to arrest me. I didn't attempt to escape when they took me back to the council who'll be in-charge of my fate. "I'm afraid I can't do much about your case, son. You broke the treaty by exposing yourself to the public and you broke the law when you shifted despite being told not to." Elder Titus said when he visited me in the cell where they were holding me. "I was aware of the outcome of my action when I did it.""And you did it anyway. It seems to me that you don't regret any of it.""I don't." I answered firmly and he sighed dee

LXXXVIII: The Mask Has FallenSeymour's POV"We are begging you to spare us, My Lord! We have protected the trash just like you instructed us and we don't know how they found him! We only did our job!" Five of the lowly vampires I ordered to protect and torture Hayes, kneel in front of me to beg for their lives. They know that I don't take incompetence lightly. In fact, I hate it more than anything in the world. I believe that anyone around me must be of value to me. "What use do you have to me when you can't do one simple task?" With a wave of my hand, one of them was quickly beheaded, his disgusting blood spraying all over the place. "Your incompetence almost blew off my cover and it almost cost me everything I have been working so hard for!" Another snap and another head flew."M-My lord, please! I promise to do better! Command me anything and I will do it!" One of them groveled at my feet. "Do you know what I hated most because of what happened? It's the fact that a mutt escape

XC: Monsters Among UsKnox's POVI didn't move and let her do what she wanted with me even when I wanted to do nothing but pull her closer until there was no space between us. To deepen the kiss and make her feel just how much I missed her. But I didn't want to frighten her. I know Alyssa is fighting an internal battle with herself right now. If we're doing this, I want her to fully submit and want this. I want her to win against herself. I want her to beat the voice in her head. But fuck was it hard. Her lips are still the softest and sweetest lips I've ever tasted. The way she kissed me with hesitation and will alter with hunger makes me lose my mind. Her soft body, her warmth, everything about her still drives me crazy."This is wrong." She pulled away from the kiss after a few seconds and pushed me away. I gritted my teeth and balled my fists to stop myself from pulling her back and taking control of the kiss this time. "What have I done?" She muttered to herself and started p
