said Abraham. "OK hon. Amber replied. At the place where Abraham had gone, Amber glanced around, seeing Asher at another table drinking happily. Abraham and he withdrew intending that they might be safe together. Whenever Amber made sure everyone was occupied and no one was taking a gander at her, she would immediately take a small sachet out of her pocket, it was a relaxing pill. Then he put it in Abraham's wine. Not long after Abraham returned and went to Amber, they talked and Abraham drank the wine with the potion.

A hand swiftly caught my elbow, steadying me with a frustrated growl. "If you're not going to take the Advil or hydrate yourself then, at the very least, sit the fuck down because I don't plan on being your crutch," he seethed, picking me up and setting me on the cool countertop. Ace began tapping my cheek lightly, "come on, focus baby and just drink the damn water." He, then, grabbed the glass of water on the table and took a large sip of it, "See, I haven't put anything in it. If I wanted to kill you, I wouldn't drug you. That would show up in a toxicology report."

Marsh exhaled and walked away from Nic's cell. Later that night, Amber was leaving one of her favorite little hot spots. She was drunk off her ass, but refused to catch a cab home. So, she drove, crossing a few lines here and there, but she managed to make it back to her apartment just fine, stumbling out of the car.

I ask confused and unsure of my feelings at the moment. He smiles softly, that enchanting smile of his. "I'm in charge now, so I get to decide where I want to settle." "Uh okay boss." I joke and he chuckles. "Besides Amber is in charge of eastern London branch and she has Dad to back her up. I trust her with my life." "Hmm, Amber." I accidentally murmur out loud causing a knowing grin out of Kyle, and he grips my hands softly in his. "She's a coworker." He brushes his other hand through my face, tenderly smothering the caked surface of my cheekbone.

The Alpha was sat in the living room, a crystal glass of Amber liquid in hand. A single lamp was turned on, as though the room had gotten dark without him noticing. He simply sat, staring into the nothingness of the room, bringing his glass to his lips to draw in a swallow of his drink every so often. He cringed at the taste onm his lips and I knew it was Scotch, the scent filled my nostrils as I walked in the room.

Kade, for his part, looked the least like he was going to puke out of the three of them. “Kade.” I pointed at him. “I need you to go into the forest and gather a plant for me.” “I don’t know anything about—” “Do it. Please,” I added as an afterthought. When he nodded, I clarified, “It’s called Amber Root. Golden, heart-shaped leaves. The stalks smell like warm honey. It’s a little sticky, but it’s fine if you get the sap on you. It should be abundant around here. Gather as much as you can.”

“So, Amber, dear. Where are you from? You’ve got a look that’s just… ethereal.” She hesitated. Just a beat. “Australia.” I clapped. “Australia! Well, call me a kangaroo and color me impressed. What part, darling?” “Uh… Perth.” “Perth!” I laughed, pouring more lemonade. “I’ve never met anyone from Perth! What did you do there? Amber looked like she’d swallowed a fork. “I… was a librarian.” “A librarian! Oh, I love books. Not that I ever finish them. I tend to fall asleep by chapter three.” I leaned in with a conspiratorial grin. “Especially the steamy ones.”Raymond coughed violently into his drink.

I muttered, wiping at my face and trying to blot out the wine. The door suddenly opened again. I thought it was Julie—but no. Amethyst Ambrose. A singer, model, and the owner of a fashion brand. Famous. Pretty. She leaned casually against the sink, lit a cigarette, and gave me a smirk. “That bitch, huh?” she said, exhaling smoke. “I’m impressed you didn’t punch her. If I were you, I’d have slammed her face into the floor and cleaned up the mess she made.” I gave her a tired look. “Well, I’m not really the type to cause a scene. Accidents happen, Miss Ambrose.”

Amber replied. Amber had been a part of the crew for the past five years now. She managed our inventory and purified the blood so we wouldn't get sick. I'm sure her parents had no clue what they were doing when they named her Amber, as her name is the very definition of a mineral that acts as a natural purifier and is able to draw pain away from the body. Amber would often suck the poison from the wounded, and she, too, came from a long legacy of vampires who saved many of our people during the Great Vampire Raids.

“Here we are.” Axel’s eyes widened in delight. “This is amazing,” he breathed, taking in the twinkling lights and the breathtaking view. “I had no idea this place existed!” Amber smiled. “I’m glad you like it.” She pulled out a bottle of champagne and a guitar from her side. She set the champagne on the table and smiled at Axel, who looked stunned at what was going on. A waitress came and poured the champagne in glass cups before nodding at Amber and retreating carefully.
