Second Twilight Novels & Stories

Seeing how much I liked him, Dad reached out to the Twilight pack to discuss an arranged marriage. But after I was abducted and my face temporarily disfigured in that fire, Easton had heartlessly broken off the engagement. It wasn't until I got engaged to Andre that Dad—hoping they'd value and cherish me—offered the Twilight pack a stream of trade deals. That was how the once insignificant Twilight pack rose to power so quickly. I knew the Twilight pack would neither give up those benefits easily, nor would they let me go without a fight. But I also wanted to make them regret everything they had done to hurt me.

Relief flooded her, but almost immediately, the fiery heat in her body surged, overwhelming her. She slid down against the wall, her strength giving out, and pulled off her T-shirt in an attempt to cool down. Her breathing was heavy, and her pounding heartbeat echoed in her ears. Her entire body felt as though it were being devoured by ants, the sensation unbearable. She couldn’t stop the soft, stifled moans that escaped her lips. Suddenly, a sharp click pierced the air, and the lights flicked on. Tara’s vision blurred, her consciousness slipping away. Through her hazy gaze, she saw a tall, striking man walking toward her.

Emilia pushed her food around her plate, barely listening to whatever small talk was happening — until Isadora cleared her throat with theatrical sweetness. “I’ve decided,” she said brightly, setting down her glass of wine. “ I’d be sleeping in Luca’s room tonight.” Emilia’s hand froze over her fork. Marco raised an eyebrow. Isadora smiled, far too satisfied. “I was the first twin to find him. And honestly I miss all the great sex we had, it is only appropriate we resume from where we stopped ” she added, her gaze flicking directly to Emilia like a dagger coated in lip gloss. The room went still.

She was probably a werewolf already, and if she wasn’t she’d be one soon. Everyone stuck around until it was very dark out. We lived so far out that light pollution wasn’t a factor when looking up at the stars. It was clear enough out that it felt like we could see every star in the sky. “I’m going to grab water. Want one?” I nodded a response to Nikki. She rolled over and got off the ground. I could hear every one sitting around a fire as it popped and sizzled. Nikki and I forewent the group gathering and laid on the beach with our towels as we looked at the stars. It was something that we’ve just always done together. We’d even make our own constellations and named them.

A thing already decided. I saw it then. A light, warm and faintly gold, shimmering in the center of Dominic’s chest, not visible to ordinary sight, not even visible to most wolves, but I had the Twilight Eyes now, and the Twilight Eyes saw everything that carried power. The light pulsed slowly, like a second heartbeat, and I understood without being told that it was his wolf core beginning to surface. The deepest part of him. The part that did not negotiate.

But it was already too late. The west wing groaned, beams snapping like twigs under a colossal weight. Chandeliers twisted and fell, shattering in a cascade of glass that rained down like lethal confetti. The twins, locked in the throes of their first shift, were the epicenter of an uncontrollable storm, their cries echoing in the collapsing hall. From outside, the earth trembled. The surrounding grounds rattled under the magnitude of their power, birds taking flight in panicked flocks. And then, with a roar that shook even the estate’s ancient stone walls, the west wing collapsed entirely, leaving a gaping crater of dust, rubble, and raw supernatural energy.

Her hands glowed brighter than ever, golden light colliding with the darkness in a blinding surge. But she knew, deep down, she couldn’t hold it forever. The twins’ energy was growing beyond her control… and the shadow was not finished. Elena’s scream ripped through the battlefield as golden light and darkness collided. The twins’ energy exploded outward in a terrifying crescendo. The forest around them shook violently. Both Damien and Zephyr were thrown back, sliding across the ground. And through it all, the shadow stood tall, its eyes burning into her soul. Elena realized — this was only the beginning.

"There's nothing to explain. You cheated on me—that's a fact. You lied about the twins—that's a fact too. Don't disgust me any further, Scott." I blocked that number too. … A week later, Scott finally showed up at the hotel. He looked haggard, unshaven, and pale. The moment he saw me, he dropped to his knees. "Honey, I'm sorry. I was blind, out of my mind. But it's over—you don't have to worry, I've already dealt with her!" His words sent a chill down my spine. "Dealt with her? What do you mean by that?"

No one dared to speak until Dark raised his right hand in surrender and shook his head. “Okay, okay! I get what you mean. I’ll explain everything to the three of you later, once the twins are gone,” he said to Sky. She immediately smiled like she had just won the lottery. Soon, the twins went upstairs to their room. Left behind were Luna, Sky, Ana, Das, James, Alex, Dark, and me. We went into the library so no one else would overhear our discussion. Once inside, Dark explained to the three women exactly what we had talked about earlier.
