Cullen Inquisition Novels & Stories

The question bucks me back to the reality of me sitting in Miss Xenia's office with Quinn and three other girls and in front of us is an officer scrutinizing my face with a distrustful look in his eyes. “Can you please repeat the question?” I request in a modest tone that's almost muffled. “What relationship do you have with the victim?” A victim. That means he was killed. “My skat partner,” I reply in the same modest tone. Quinn scowl. “No, please! I saw you two sucking each other's faces yesterday and today he winds up dead,” “Is that true?” Miss Katherina unexpectedly asks from the corner of the room. “Were you in a relationship with Shane?”

At my approach, they shivered, desire and fear flickering across their faces. “Greetings, Alpha,” they curtsied. I ignored them and looked each of them over. “You, you, you and you. Come forward.” I fished out the faces that had taunted Raven moments ago. They were the same women who had aided Anika in beating her. They stepped forward, eyes shining with what they thought would be a pleasurable night with the alpha. Ronan arrived then. “Just in time, Ronan. Tell Damien to set up the gallons. These four women will face death by firing squad,” I ordered.

“Walk with me and we can talk.” Her nose wrinkles, and she squares her shoulders. “No, tell me now. Did you find my sisters or not? It’s not a hard question.” There’s sharpness in her voice, but I hear the brittleness beneath the words. “We will talk in private,” I repeat. She stares at me incredulously, then at my three men and to the lump of a wolf shifter by the smashed-up wall. Her brow furrows. “What’s going on, Cage? Who are the men with you? And why did you kill Correy? Shit, what if we get in trouble with the Sheriff for murder?”

"We found out several months ago. Makenna was the one that helped. She informed Jace that Silvio was only an alias that Cole was using, as he didn't want Kevin to make a connection to who he really was. If Kevin had found out what Silvio's real name was, Kevin would've stayed clear of him. He would've known right away that Silvio wasn't really working with him. Kevin wanted The Skulls for himself. But Cole is Hunter's brother. So even if Kevin killed Hunter, Kevin wouldn't become the new head of the Skulls. Rather, Cole would be the rightful heir." "Why didn't you tell me any of this?" Hawk asks. "We wanted to keep it quiet. The only ones that know that Silvio is only an alias are the ones s

He thought about what the maid told him. Without Serena's knowledge, he'd been getting information of what she's been doing through her personal maid. It was the only way he could keep watch on her without being close to her. And just like every other day, she had come with another update. Murphy Damien. A count's son. He's been lurking around Serena lately and he doesn't like it one bit but he can't ask Serena directly or it'll need to more questions. He'll have to start doing his own investigations on him without Serena knowing.

"And his Luna, the esteemed Dr. Juliet Blackthorne, the continent's leading expert in supernatural botany and the chief editor of the Journal of Lycanthropic Gene Therapy." Thunderous applause filled the hall. The same people who had been laughing at me were now clapping furiously, their eyes filled with fawning respect. Orton's gaze swept over the room, finally landing on Cullen. "Cullen," he said, his voice laced with a dangerous calm. "Thank you for being too blind to see the treasure you held in your hands." Cullen's face was pale. "Impossible… Her 'institute' was just a tiny workshop in a basement…"

Could this day get any worse? Black shiny shoes step into my view and I tense up. My eyes trail up the person's frame until my head is tilted far back, since the person is a giant standing before me. If I thought my body had tensed up before, it has now gone rigid because of who stands towering over me. It's him again. That man. My eyes widen in realization that I was actually here to be interviewed by him. He is Mr Cullen. No, no, no....

Cullen was so serious asking Heart. ‘Why did he have to check the CCTV footage? Of course, I can’t tell him that I worked as Scarlet Heart in the bar. Damn it.’ Heart thought. “Hey, answer me, Reina!” Cullen was getting mad. Heart was looking at Cullen but then she looked at him from head to toe. ‘He is still wearing the hospital’s labgown. Why is he like this? But yes, he hates liars.’ Heart thought. “Um, I ju-”

Cullen called again that night. Amelia answered. “What do you want?” “Did you talk to Kael?” “Yes.” “And? Did he confirm what I said?” “He confirmed there are things he didn’t confess to. But he also said you don’t have proof.” Cullen laughed. “He’s wrong. I have plenty of proof. Witness statements. Financial records. Video footage of some very interesting meetings.” “Then why call me? Why not go to the prosecutors yourself?”

“I was the messenger. The one who gave you the Black Pearl long ago.” I tensed. “Long time no see,” he added with a smirk. “What are you doing here?” I asked, trying to steady my voice. He didn’t answer right away. Instead, he stepped closer, his expression shifting into something colder. “What are you doing, Cullen?” he said sharply. “You altered the Death Book… and now you're bringing a human into your house?” I clenched my jaw and looked away. “I asked you a question,” I said again, firmer this time.
