Is Maria Shadow's Sister Novels & Stories

Ironfang’s subtle support strengthened her position, and Darius’s presence deterred open challenges. Lila struck that evening during a private dinner, slipping a stronger poison into Elara’s wine. Elara pretended to drink but used her emerging powers to neutralize it, the shadows purging the toxin from her system. The game had turned deadly. But Elara was no longer the prey. With Darius’s bond fueling her and her allies closing in, the Shadowed Queen prepared her final moves. The fall of Silvercrest’s old order had begun.

Her eyes widened in fear yet she gutted back to step ahead towards the invader in order to start fighting off. "WHO ARE YOU, HOW DID YOU GET INSIDE?" She shouted at him while approaching. But the shadow in a spilt second avoided her contact to get away from her as that was when Sylendra opened her mouth to shout for help as an immediate alarm before the invader could have run away and escape. She intended to call the security but just in a matter of seconds a big hand covered her mouth blocking her intentions before she could have made any sound, her eyes doubled the size immediately at the audacity of the invader.

“No, I can’t let any snotty man, have you. I’d rather you don’t get married.” Shadow sighed annoyingly. (Cole!) Marina’s voice volumed up so suddenly. Cole flinched and sat straight and looked at the phone nervously. He was swallowing hard. (How many times do I have to tell you? Lord Shadow is not your property. Let her go.) “Please.” Shadow tousled her bang to the back, agreed. “She- she is my sister.” (I know.) “But- but, you did the same to her.” (Because I can.)

CHAPTER SIXTY FOUR _ARIEL_ As Selene's best friend, and like a sister to her. It was the most shocking part of her life I got to know. I know how much Selene hates the idea of werewolves and all that. Not to talk of being a werewolf from an Alpha bloodline? I couldn't believe what I was hearing. Selene, my best friend, my sister in every way, was telling me that she was with a birthmark owned by werewolves? It sounded like a joke, but the seriousness in her voice told me otherwise.

Ruth thought it was blood, so she cried out in fear. “You killed my sister!” Steve shouted angrily with a pale face. On the other hand, Gordon calmed down when he saw the black shadow in the air. The shadow looked short and had a round head. It was someone from Solara. The Solarian’s shadow quickly condensed in the air to escape. “Shimada is lonely. He wants you to keep him company!” Kiran said to the Solarian shadow, who was about to escape. The shadow was shocked. It stopped in its tracks and looked at Kiran. “How do you know Shimada?”

She knew there was never going to be a good time to break the news to her brother in mating, so Raeann whispered bluntly, "It's your daughter Shadow. Someone has taken Maria." Isabella's keening wail chilled her pack to the very bone, and Shadow felt the blood drain from his face as Raeann's words finally penetrated. Without another word, uncaring of his still-healing body, the young Alpha got to his feet and scrambled inside to be by Bella's side.

“Okay… okay…. I promise to never again accuse you of sleeping with my brother. Happy?” “No, Lily.” I heard James take a deep breath. “I meant the part about your sister. I never want to hear you say, ever again, that you are 'getting used to' living in Stephanie’s shadow. That may have been your past, but I will be d&&ned if that is your present or your future. Stephanie was not even a quarter of the she-wolf that you are. I am sorry that I did not see that until it was too late.” Wow. I did not expect that. I wiped a single tear from my eye.

Sweat trickles down my back, and suspicion fills my mind. “I don’t know. She was affected by it, she didn’t want to talk about it, because it was really…” “Mars, I’m pretty sure the moon goddess is the shadow god’s mother. I’ve read and researched about this a lot. Not just now, but before he even showed up here. I don’t know why whoever told you about it left out that part, but if you see them gain, ask who the mother is, or you can ask your mate himself.” He puts one hand on my shoulder. “I’m gonna go get the drinks from King and get one for myself. Stay put until I get back, don’t want you mistakenly falling into the river again.”

The same one she'd shown me before. She carried it back carefully, like it weighed more than it should. "The Shadow wasn't always alone," she said, opening it to a marked page. "Before the curse… before everything changed… he had a mate." I held my breath. "And children," she added. My pulse quickened. "Mira was one." Mara nodded. "Yes." The page rustled softly as she turned it. "There was another." The room felt smaller. "Who?" I asked. Mara's fingers trembled slightly against the paper.

I echoed. “A shadow network,” she explained, her voice echoing in the concrete garage. “Twenty years of gathering the women who were collateral damage in their mob wars. The wives they thought they’d killed, the daughters they’d traded, the sisters they’d broken. We protect our own. We built this with the secrets we gathered while we were ‘cleaning’ their houses. Silas knew about it though.” “You’ve been building this for twenty years?” “I was building a place for us to be safe,” Maria said. “And a place for you to lead from. Now, take Mia upstairs. She needs to eat.”
