“I’m sorry, I needed to get my mate healed first. I figured if I told you right away that they were coming you’d kill me. But I’m not hiding anything else. You’ve got time to prepare and evacuate those who can’t fight. And the defences of Onyx are one hundred times that of Grey Back.” “We can call in reinforcements from Aurora…and those who can’t fight can evacuate to the southern packs. Dayna and Lupin can organize that. They’ve got lots of connections there.” Everest said quietly, her liquid golden eyes full of fight and violence. “They will not hurt another wolf.” She vowed. A quiet groan came from the bed, and Theo stirred, his eyes fluttering. “Sienna” he mumbled, his voice deep and hoa

It was impenetrable. In the master suite of the bunker, Zara stood in front of a full-length mirror. She wasn't wearing her usual corporate blazers. She was wearing a gown designed for a shadow-cartel masquerade.

Hidden seamlessly within the lining of the velvet was a layer of carbon-nanotube armor, capable of stopping a high-caliber bullet.

Jace said his voice was short and snappy. Nora sighed, opening the bag and then grabbing the box. She paused a minute trying to find a way out of opening it. Jace made another noise as she was just staring at the black box. She sighed and opened the box. Inside the box layed a small black onyx necklace. It was a simple square onyx stone that hung on a silver chain and was very beautiful. “What? I can't take this. Why would you- “Black onyx can disguise hunters from wolves.

The pungent, suffocating smell of old diesel grease, stagnant salt, and rust hit my nose, making my stomach churn. But there was no time to recoil. Kai plunged his arms into the freezing, murky depth of the hatch, feeling around blindly before pulling out two thick, faded orange life jackets. They were stiff with age and coated in a fine layer of gray dust, but the canvas straps were thick and the buckles intact.

The Vesper was a ghost of a ship. Tucked away in a decommissioned naval yard in a forgotten corner of New Jersey, the sixty-foot stealth cutter was coated in radar-absorbent polymer that made it look like a jagged shard of obsidian. It was a relic of the era when Julian’s father didn't just want to lead the market, but wanted to survive a nuclear winter.

‘For the Onyx gala. “Oh, the gala,” she said with a strike of realization and turned slightly to Von. “Can I open them?” “Of course.” Kate’s fingers worked the ribbon loose on the box. The moment she lifted the lid, air stalled in her lungs. “Holy…” Nestled inside was a midnight-violet stunning dress.

Rain hit Agnes's face like needles, but the suffocating pressure of being buried three hundred feet below the earth was instantly gone. Beside her, Rhys rose out of the water like a dark leviathan. Even submerged in the roaring tide, the Apex Core on his chest glowed through his soaked shirt, a steady beacon of violet and gold that cut clean through the coastal sea-mist. With one broad hand, he kept a half-drowned Marcus afloat, while his other arm locked firmly around Agnes's waist, holding her against his side with effortless strength.
