Haunting Adeline Online Book Novels & Stories

I slammed my mind walls shut, he clearly needed time to chill, and I needed the space to breathe. This was the torment I had been dealing with ever since I met Adeline in my literature class a week ago. Dax had been making my life a living hell with his relentless demands to mate and mark her. Heck, I couldn't even remember how many times he had forced me to run to her window under the cover of night, just to be close enough to inhale that intoxicating scent of hers. It was the only thing keeping him sane, that, and a brutal spar with some of the pack warriors.

"We just need to get out of the open. We’ll find a place to hide together. A hollow log, a cave... anything." "Hide?" A sharp voice cut through the dark from just behind us. Even though I couldn’t see her face clearly, I knew it was Mirabel. I would recognize that sneering tone anywhere. "That’s your big plan, Adeline?" She chuckled and stepped closer. "You three really think hiding like scared rabbits is going to save you? If you had a single wolf between the three of you, maybe you’d have a real chance at surviving the night. But no, you’ll probably just trip over each other in the first five minutes and serve yourselves up on a silver platter."

The moment Lina’s eyes shot over her Ma's shoulder to lock directly onto mine, I forgot about everything. The sight of Lina in my oversized black shirt was everything. She was practically drowning in the fabric. The hem was hitting her mid-thigh, exposing her juicy thighs. Fuck, I wanted them to crush my fuckin skull. "Are you listening to me, Adelina?" But as I became aware of Willow’s voice, I felt irritated all over. What the fuck is she even doing here? Others might be deceived but I know for a fucking fact Willow West doesn't care about her daughter.

Then, Damion says, “This is fucking crazy! I am a werewolf and have grown up listening to this ritual. Most of us have. Are you sure he is not lying?” “I don’t see why he would be. Plus, there is no such thing in the book. The book that Carl has been seeking and killing people over. Nothing. At all.” “Damn! This is insane!” Tyrus says. “Tell me about it,” says Adeline, “I was in an almost century-long sleep because a crazy werewolf thought I was the key to the spell. Oh, this makes me mad!” “That just means that nothing would have happened even if Carl would have managed to steal the book,” says Brent.

It wasn’t confirmed yet, but in our world, it wasn’t impossible either, especially when that man made a deal with the devil or was the devil himself. We ended the day. Hendrix and Hunt went back to their work while we drove back to the pack house after we made sure that Milka was fully recovered. She was supposed to go home, but she insisted on coming with me. I thought it was because she wanted me to come to her when I was pulled into Kaiser’s world, but I was wrong. “I saw you, Adeline,” she said after I closed the door when we entered my room. “What?” I asked, “I saw you standing next to the man who was found dead at your border.”

She was screwed, that's for sure. After Odette left, Adeline looked around the bedroom. It was large and had a lot of things to entertain herself with. There was an Amazon Kindle sitting next to a huge flat-screen TV hidden behind some drapes. Adeline turned on the TV and saw it had all the streaming services. She looked through the Kindle, and it was loaded with thousands of books. There were several bookshelves loaded with books too, but they looked untouched, like no one had ever read them. What a beautiful prison, perfect for a princess in a tower! Adeline was amazed. Was that what Damien imagined she was? No, she was his bought-and-paid-for whore in a tower and she'd do well to remember

Silent tears flowed out as I dipped lower in the mattress. My headache had finally resided by the time I woke up. The curtains were drawn on the window and it was already dark outside. I stared out at the moonless night beyond as my heard wrapped around the reality. Sighing inaudibly, I turned around and saw Adeline hunched over her study table, her nose poking into a book. She was really engrossed into whatever she was reading. Getting off the bed, I tiptoed toward her. As my shadow fell over her book, she turned around, "Oh, hi, you are finally up." Putting the bookmark inside the page, she continued, "How is your headache?"

Seeing that Adeline was terrified, Chloe went up to her and held her hand in comfort, "Come on, Adeline. It's only a tale from the olden days. So, take it with a grain of salt. Maybe you're just imagining things because your new married life is stressing you out too much." "Really?" Adeline asked aloud for reassurance, and she looked at Chloe with mixed feelings. Chloe rolled her eyes at that and said earnestly, "Adeline, you live in modern scientific society right now. You can't possibly believe that devils and ghosts exist in this world?" Adeline listened and processed Chloe's words, and she thought that Chloe was right and reasonable. She started to be convinced that she was either dreami

he muttered. “Your book fell. I put it back on the shelf. Go get it and stop bothering me,” he said, closing his eyes. Adeline’s cheeks burned with embarrassment. She fetched her book, sat on the bed, leaned back, and resumed reading. Her eyes grew heavier and heavier. She finally set the book on the bedside table, pulled up the blanket, and closed her eyes. ***

They didn’t divorce, but they didn’t seem to reconcile anytime soon. Before Clavier could say anything, Adeline collapsed, and he rushed in to catch her body. “Adeline!” Clavier called as her eyes were slowly closing. He touched her forehead and felt her skin was burning hot as if she was grilled alive. There were red markings all over her arms. With her shaking hands, she reached for something inside the pocket of her jacket. “What’s this?” Clavier asked. “The drug...the First Elder’s blood used to produce the drug...and the research data….” Adeline replied softly before losing consciousness.
