Blood Oath 7 Novels & Stories

On the day of my coming-of-age ceremony, the two men who cherish me above all else are absent. One is Vittorio Luciano, the only son of the Luciano family from the east, while the other is Carlos Gambino, the heir to the Gambino family from the south. This is a matter that could easily be settled with a few words, yet they try to think up all sorts of excuses to brush me off. "Anna, a gunfight has broken out at the port to the north, so I really can't step away." "I have to hold a family meeting with the elders. I can't skip it." However, the two men have barely hung up on me when I see them appear beside my adopted younger sister, Liliana Siciliano, at her coming-of-age ceremony. The

Then he bowed his head not in submission, but in acknowledgment. When he lifted his face again, his expression was different. Not broken. Forged.

I reverted back to Oscala, I bit my finger, drew blood and stamped on the document. Oscala stepped down a stair and held document up above his head. “By the power rested in me as the priest of the goddess I bind this oath made in blood with the power of the goddess. Everyone and their descendants, every people being represented today, shall spend their lives protecting this unity. They cannot break from it unless the goddess will it so and anyone who goes against the will of this oath will suffer the wrath of the goddess.” Everyone bowed to accept the proclamation. Oscala put it down, packaged it well and he left first to keep it in the temple of the goddess. I ordered for the celebration to

Alexander walked up to the podium and fell in line with the other four Betas. Benji swore them in and did the blood oath. They were now bound by blood and a betrayal of our pack or leadership would mean certain death. “Next, we have our Gammas, Gamma Josh Albright, Gamma Brandt Jones, and Gamma Erin Nawders. Osiris swore in the Gammas, the Gammas also did the blood oath. “Now for the Deltas, Delta Tyler Simmons, Delta Earl Codding, Delta Joey Morretti.” Evander swore in the Delta, again the Deltas also participated in the blood oath.

She shot me a smug, challenging look. Orion gripped his scepter. I noticed the massive soulstone glowing at its tip. "Ianthe." He looked up, his silver eyes locking onto mine. The room went dead silent. "I swear on the River Styx," his voice was deep and absolute. "I will not betray you. Not in this life. Not in the next. I am yours until the end of all things." The vow echoed like thunder. Even Deimos looked shocked. Swearing on the River Styx was the most binding oath in the divine realm. Break it, and your soul rots in the Abyss forever.

Alphas were supposed to be at the top of the food chain, so they never took well to being ordered. “I’m sorry. I just need to make sure you keep it to yourself. The decision to accept or decline my offer will be yours alone. And if you accept, I will need you to make a blood oath.” “Hey, wait a minute—” “Please hear me out.” A blood oath was a dangerous thing. If Chase ever broke his promise, his death would be quick and painful. “Okay, fine. What do you need?”

Not for long, though. Because then one of the elders stepped forward with a bundle of yellowed parchment, bound with a red ribbon so dark it looked like dried blood. His hands shook as he held it up, like the weight of it was burning him. “This,” he said, voice cutting through the chamber, “is proof enough. Signed in her hand. Witnessed by rogue leaders. A blood oath.” The words hit harder than any slap. “No,” I whispered, shaking my head. “No, that’s not real. You…no. My mother would never—”

Then he asked quietly, "Well, Alpha Alexander, do you still want Kael to die?" The question echoed through the hall. Every eye fixed on Alpha Alexander. His jaw tightened, and his hands formed into fists. For several agonizing seconds, he didn't answer. Then finally... "No,” Alpha Alexander declared firmly, the word dropping like thunder. The hall exploded. "What?" "No?" "Did he just—" Alpha Alexander raised his hand and instant silence followed. "The blood oath will still be honored.” he swallowed hard, his eyes not leaving Kael’s body. "But the repayment shall come from the one who undertook the oath."

She sat down next to him, "If you are truly ours...what can you say of the blood oath sworn at the riverbend?" Elijah searched through his fragmented memories and every dream. He did recall there was an oath of that sort, but he didn't know how to explain it well, purely following instinct as he answered, "That oath was made to bind more than flesh. It was about trust. About never abandoning one another, even if the river floods, even if the world burns. I don't remember the words...But I know the weight of them. And I swear to you now, I'll uphold it. Whether I remember or not,"

"Now do we have a deal or not?" "We have a deal." Garrett pulled out a ceremonial knife, its blade glowing with runes. "Blood oath. The old way. Unbreakable." One by one, we each cut our palms and let the blood drip into a ceremonial bowl. Garrett added his own blood, then began chanting in a language I didn't recognize. The air grew heavy. Oppressive. Power crashed over us in waves, sealing the oath into our very souls. When it was done, I felt the oath settle into place—a weight on my chest, a binding that couldn't be broken without severe consequences.
