I forced my spine to stay straight even though my knees felt like water. I couldn’t breathe or move; I suddenly felt it. A warm, slow tickle started at my hairline and began to roll down my forehead. I reached up, and my fingers grazed the skin. It’s blood. A tiny piece of glass must have flown and slid across my

It was like she was inviting him to dip his large claws deep into her neck and not let go until life has left her body. “I just hope you know I am going to make you suffer.” Shivani flinched. She knew he hated her but she'd thought he feared her mother and he would not act on the hatred he felt for her but now, her fears has been confirmed. She ignored him and looked ahead with a bravery she didn’t feel. Soon enough, Shivani fell asleep with her head lulled to her side.

He inhaled through his nose, his fingers flexing against my waist like he was deciding whether to push me away or pull me closer.

Libro Vitae whispered its voice harmonious. "Libro Vitae, please show me where Alastair is hiding," I asked. The book hummed in response. Libro Vitae became warm in my hands. The cover opened, pages flipped continuously until they suddenly stopped. The words on the page jumped off the paper, floating into the air, wrapping themselves around me. In a blink of an eye, I was pulled into the book. Light flooded my vision. Every sound echoed around me. Voices raced past me, speaking in riddles. Some shouting, screaming, others a dull whisper. Libro Vitae's voice became louder as I watched the trees form around me.

Midnight black fur erupting over his tan skin as if it were burning it away. He was beautiful. I was ashamed to admit that I was a little awe struck being this close to his wolf, to any wolf really. Those who hadn’t yet completed their first shift were kept away from the wolves as we couldn’t communicate yet through the pack link, and wolves were very volatile once provoked, but I couldn’t stop myself, I reached for him. His fur was jet black but in the dim lights of the apartment, it almost looke

"My intellect sees. My own ears heard the rumors regarding what went down at Villa de Sierra. Absolute zero physical harm occurred to his team at the peak." Chloe lets out a mocking, twisted smirk, her mouth asking, "Since absolute zero harm hit his physical body, what specific reason makes his alpha beast so intensely suspicious of my character that his hands won't let the file drop?"

Chloe’s internal wolf was completely twisted and broken after her facial disfigurement went down on the circuit. She used to love Eth

Vera My body seemed to be shutting down and the closest place for me to hide was the Shifters pack. This time, I didn't give a damn about my connection with the pack. I stumbled in through one of its openings and threw myself on the floor. Blood trickled down different cuts on my body and I felt feverish. To cap it up, I began to hear some rustling in the bush just behind me. Whoever it was, I didn't care. I just laid sprawled on the floor, waiting for whatever was coming.
