Klee X Albedo Novels & Stories

When she mentioned 'humor,' I saw Kael’s jaw twitch as he visibly struggled not to stare at my disastrously boring, potato-sack tunic. "Kael must be questioning your taste, Selene," I said with a sharp laugh. "This is literally the only kit I have. It was 'Highland Exile' approved." "Ah," Kael said, his eyes finally meeting mine. "I’ll make sure to scratch those territories off my list for any future travels. I'm guessing deep blues or forest greens are more your style, Acacik. Or maybe a sharp, aggressive crimson." "Crimson? With my hair?"

They called themself vamolves. “He did it! Adron finally figured out how to use our own creations against us!” Sabrina said as she pulled up an image of one. “Now he is completely gone and is in his own underworld, we cannot get to him!” Althea cried out. The worry was evident on her beautiful porcelain face. Her silky white wavy hair was being blown behind her as she kept pacing around the room. Sabrina was almost her twin but she had green eyes compared to Althea’s sky blue ones.

"You heard me perfectly. That strong, powerful Alpha you worship? He's been taking his morning vitamins very faithfully. Special vitamins that I prepare for him every single day." My legs feel weak as she continues proudly. "Wolfsbane extract. Just tiny amounts mixed in with the regular supplements. Not enough to kill him quickly, but enough to weaken his wolf. Make him sick. Make him dependent on me to take care of him." I grab the doorframe to keep from falling. "You're poisoning my father." "I prefer to think of it as insurance. He’s been taking them long enough to cause irreversible damage, and I’m the only one with the antidote.’’

It was like nothing she had ever experienced before - a cold, calculating power that seemed to seep into her very bones. The pack's leader, a towering wolf with eyes that seemed to burn with an inner fire, stepped forward. "Damien, Alpha of the Moonlight Pack," he growled, his voice like thunder. "We've been waiting for you." Damien's eyes locked onto the wolf, his expression unyielding. "What do you want, Kael?" Kael's smile was a cold, calculating thing. "We want the Omega," he growled, his eyes locking onto Melissa. "And we'll stop at nothing to get her."

I heard the commanding voice that froze us both. “Damn!” Elena’s hand jerked back like she’d been burned. Her eyes widened, mouth parting slightly as Kael emerged from the dark end of the corridor like he’d been watching. He wasn’t dressed like the Alpha the world saw. Just a shirt clinging to the strength of his shoulders, and pants that made him look more man than monster. They burned with a fury I hadn’t seen before. “Elena,” he said, not even blinking as he stared her down, “is there a reason you thought manhandling Aria was acceptable behavior?”

I ask him. “Nah, the Alpha keeps brand new jackets in this closet for when someone forgets theirs in cases like this or for the families that have fallen on hard time—those who may not be able to afford to buy a new jacket or coat for themselves or their families. It is one of the things that Luna Leila implemented before her death. Alpha Kade has kept up with it. There are clothes of all sizes in here. It is kind of a care closet for the pack, anyone is welcomed to the clothes in here.” I stare at the jacket before taking it from him and sliding it on. I let the feel of the soft material warm my cold arms. Armani pulls an umbrella out of the closet before guiding me out of the pack house.

AUTHOR POV The blood wasn’t gone when Kael Blackthorn slipped past the body. “You’re becoming sloppy,” he told the man shaking against the wall of the alley. “Three weeks to track down one rogue, and you just allowed him to cut your arm open?” The wolf cowered properly this time, pressing his bleeding shoulder to the brick. “Alpha, I....” “Don’t.” Kael’s voice shattered the night air like winter steel. “The next wolf who offers me excuses instead of results will come to him.”

The plea for aid, tinged with vulnerability, reaches his ears, drawing his attention like a magnet pulling at his heartstrings. Pausing in his ascent, Alpha Kaden turns to face the source of the voice, his expression softening as his gaze falls upon Alexa, a young pack member in need of assistance. Her words, filled with a plea for help, resonate in the air, a poignant reminder of the interconnectedness that binds their pack together in times of need.

“No, we can’t go into that establishment looking this way. You are bare.” “Funny.” Drawing intimately to me, “Are you forgetting we are a different kind of breed? Werewolves. Being bare is the least of my worries.” He pushed his car door open, getting out. Clearing my throat loudly, I stepped out of the car as well. Getting to the entrance, Alpha Leonardo said some words to the men guarding the gate. Words I couldn't hear however I strained. The pathway into the establishment was laid apart for us to walk in. Couldn’t stop my eyes from watching the beautiful lights in awe. This place looked better at night.
