Nora Roberts Awakening Series Novels & Stories

“You’re not exactly in the position to make demands on Mary or whatever she calls herself. After all, you didn’t even meet your end of the bargain.” “Ryan darling?” Paige turned to Ryan. “How about unfreezing her entire body? This looks weird. A witchy head on Paul’s body.” “Thank you.” Amber breathed, giving Paige a grateful look. “I feel like a robot.” “Deloris?” Ryan looked at the warlock. “Should I?” “Just a moment,” Deloris said as she reached out to pull out a strand of Amber’s hair. “Ouch…”Amber cried out. “Aw, don’t be a baby.” Paige cooed.

“Where’s Myra? I don’t have time to be stuck here.” “I’m right here.” Myra answered as she quietly shut the room door. She was wearing a white lab coat and dark blue scrubs underneath. “Alpha, now that you are awake we have no reason to keep you, we will release you, but we still have no clue as to why you even passed out in the first place. I’m just going to assume it had to do with Viv’s appearance since I saw you do the same thing with Silver’s first couple of appearances.” ‘Vivian, is this true?’

Chapter 25 "Ro…rogues! Everyone get down!", Myla suddenly gasped as she woke up with a start. Did she die? Was she in heaven? She looked around and in less than two seconds, Noah was beside her. She was in her room, in…in her own fluffy robe. This was deja Vu all over again, except this time Noah was the one at her bed. "Calm down Myla", Noah soothed, "It was just a nightmare"

Strange howling sounds filled Esper's ears and slowly brought her consciousness back to the surface. She tried to move around, but her muscles felt heavy with the weight of the silk sheets. Wanting to look around, Esper tried to open her eyes but quickly shut them as light flooded into them. It felt like she had been sleeping for days. The young woman attempted to open her lids again but did so much slower this time. Her eyes gradually adjusted to the light, and she peered around the unfamiliar place.

Nora woke up slowly as the first quiet rays of dawn filtered through the curtains. The room was cool, a contrast to the soft warmth wrapped around her. She shifted slightly, noticing the heavy weight of Arlo’s arm pulled securely over her waist, pinning her gently to the mattress. She carefully adjusted his arm to check her phone. The screen lit up in the dim room: 6:30 AM.

Nikki speaks then growls at Jacoby for moving close to Valery. I quickly realize Jacoby is the grey wolf who ran to our aide to help and protect his mate. “It’s not, Ryder isn’t wrong; I saw it, their eyes turned red like Raven’s, it was like she possessed them. I could feel her in my mind, but she didn’t take over,” Embry speaks calmly while brushing my hair from my face as look up to see the pain and worry in his eyes. “How then?” Nikki asks making Gideon growl this time as he gets up to confront him.

Nora muttered as she turned so she could look at the head board. It was a black metal frame but it wasn't good metal. If she could detach the small metal rod that ran up and down she could get free. The rod was clearly there for design but the smart ass lopped the handcuffs through it. She gripped the metal of the handcuffs and moved it up to the top of the rod. She began to pull towards her. She could feel the metal digging into her wrist cutting the outer part of her wrist. It burned and stinged against her skin but she wasn't going to be anyones prisoner. She yanked back and forth on the rod until she finally felt it snap. She fell backwards on the bed. Free! Her mind yelled as she got qu

‎Aleksei and I exchange a look. ‎That is the third time the location has surfaced tonight. ‎Which means it is real. ‎Or it is bait. ‎Possibly both. ‎Another message buzzes through my phone before we leave. ‎A new image. ‎Closer this time. ‎Nora’s face fills the screen. Her lip still bleeding faintly. Eyes sharp despite the exhaustion. ‎Defiant. ‎Alive. ‎A single line follows beneath it. ‎She talks about you in her sleep. ‎Something in me snaps.

No one else could have slipped through the protective wards without triggering alarms, but Nora had always been the exception not just to the rules of this place, but to every carefully constructed belief I had once held. She stood with her back to me, half-illuminated by the glow of a floating orb light hovering near her shoulder. Books were scattered across the long table in front of her, some open, others sealed with ancient wax and forgotten sigils. Her fingers trembled as she traced the faded ink of a map. Her eyes, when she glanced up at my approach, were sharp, wary, and far too tired. “You’re not supposed to be in here,” she said without preamble, like I was just another problem she

Chapter 24 Avoidance didn’t begin as a plan. It began as instinct. Nora woke up one morning with a tightness in her chest that refused to loosen, no matter how many deep breaths she took. Her phone lay beside her, screen dark, mercifully quiet. For the first time in weeks, there were no messages waiting for her. No demands. No guilt disguised as affection. She stared at the ceiling and realized something unsettling. She didn’t want to see James.
