Semua Bab Alpha's Dirty Secrets: Bab 741 - Bab 750

Mila swallowed to fight back the tears she knew would come. She had to tell the whole tale so they could know what they were up against, but it was so hard to re-live the worst moment of her life. "He got too close, sweetheart," she said, her voice shaking. Dante wrapped his arms around her from behind, lending his support to give her strength to continue."He didn't tell me he had found the person we were looking for. He knew I would want to go with him. Instead, he brought Dante to me, having already told him all about me, and the evil ahead. Abraham said he was just going to speak to a source about another rumour he'd heard. When he didn't return after a day, we went looking for him."Mila's voice broke and Dante's arms tightened further, but she swallowed hard and continued. "We found his body in an abandoned hut in the forest. Abraham still lived but his mind was an empty shell. It was as if someone had entered his head and destroyed every single part of him. He was nothing but a

Rhianna wore a sad look as she realized she had kept her family and friends in the dark for so long about her brother from another time. She said, "Maybe things would have been different if I had gone with Caleb. However, there is nothing I can do to alter that, and perhaps events were destined to unfold in this particular manner.She was silent for a long time, staring past him as if reliving an old memory, then she gave herself a mental shake and met Rafe's intent gaze. "Caleb should be here for this. There are things he needs to know and we have knowledge we can provide to help Dara and Kothi find our old home more easily."Rafe raised an eyebrow, his expression sardonic. "I believe I said something similar a little earlier..."Rhianna rolled her eyes, a half smile teasing her lips as she conceded her brother's point. "Yes, you did, and you were right. Now do you feel better?"As an answer, he reached out and pulled Rhianna into a tight bear hug, a chuckle escaping him. "You never

"Annie, what subject do you wish to discuss?"While pouring his partner a mocha, Caleb cast an inquisitive glance over his shoulder. It had been difficult for him to hold back his questions while the senior members of the Armand-Hanlon pack immediately looked for any indications of mental interference in Rafe's studies.Thankfully, everyone they had checked had come back negative for any tampering so it had been a relatively speedy process, and they had been able to return home after only a couple of hours.He had waited for Rhianna to say something further after her cryptic comment at Rafe's, but she had been especially silent on the journey home, and remained quiet while she sat at their dining table in the kitchen, watching him prepare their coffees. It was clear she wasn't going to voluntarily share the information without a nudge, so he decided to give her that little push needed. Now, he waited for her to speak, walking over to sit down across from her and placing the coffees on

Caleb literally stopped breathing for a few seconds...the words from the Genesis Society coming to mind.With the birth of the first female offspring of each century they imprinted a key. They would have the ability to walk in both worlds, both walker and life drinker. They would possess the powers of their ancestors and be able to carry the gene until a union of the two species would come and our resurgence would arrive. They called these children the Vârcolac."Annie, are you saying that we now have the ability to have children?" he stammered out, fear, confusion and a liberal amount of hope colouring his tone. He let out his breath as he waited for her answer.She nodded, colour blushing her cheeks. "After reading the histories, I started to suspect it was possible but I wasn't sure so I didn't say anything right away. The more I listened to your conversation with Ana, the more time I had to think about, and the more it made sense. Caleb, the Vampire Queens are direct descendants f

Everything was enveloped in darkness. It was sneaky, enveloping all of the light, all of the memories, and all sense of time. How much time had she spent here? Did it last for a day, a week, or perhaps a month? She didn't believe it to be any longer. The idea of light was still fresh in her mind, but she was reasonably confident that it would have faded if darkness had been her only experience for the previous year or more. That is what sensory deprivation did to a person. It muddled up space and time. It so confused your thinking that you lost all sense of who you were and which way was up or down.She knew her name was on the tip of her tongue. She could reach for it but it would only slip away again as it had so many times before. The creature would arrive and there would be the barest of sensation at her right side and then oblivion would creep back in. So, this time she didn't reach for her name. The crushing disappointment of almost getting there only to have it snatched cruelly
