The Daughter In The Shadows Novels & Stories

I was certain of it. They had come too far to turn around now. The situation surrounding her family was deteriorating by the day, and every hour wasted narrowed her options. There was no time to waste and she was treading on dangerous territory. Soon, this contract would be the only thing standing between them and complete ruin. She knew that. And I knew it better than anyone. I rose from my chair and walked to the floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the city. The skyline glittered under the afternoon sun, sharp and untouchable.

I look around but I don't see anything. “They are getting closer, will you follow?” he starts to get demanding a little as I sit looking around for the giggling. “Who's getting closer?” I ask the man. Just as I finish asking the man wraps his arms around me from behind the tree, clamping his hands together, holding me right on the rough bark of the tree. “Let me go!” I yell hoping he would listen. The sound of giggling gets louder as his grass gets tighter. I see a light from a flame appear from behind me lighting up everything in front of me. I can see 3 shadows appear on the wall of the building. They still giggle as they get closer to me. I struggle to break free of the man's grasp but I'

Embrace the shadow as you embrace the light, and she will be whole. The presence faded. Left me kneeling in the dim grove. Mind spinning. Our daughter wasn't just light. She was a shadow too. Born from the wound. From darkness. From the place where light and shadow met. We'd been trying to suppress that. Trying to make her all light. All good. All safe. But that wasn't who she was. I walked back slowly. Processing. Understanding dawning painfully. Found Kael near the perimeter. Checking words. Looking exhausted.

my mom asked in trembling voice. " What do you want from my daughter and why are you calling her your mistress?" dad asked in a deep voice. " Mr. Castello. Trust me I don't mean a single harm to your daughter instead I am here t help her out.I know you guys are scared but I can explain everything. My name is Colton and I am a shadow from the shadow dimension. The dimension whose queen is your daughter and our mistress Minerva." Colton announced and looked at me.

The last person her gaze came to rest on was her mates. "What are you doing out of the hospital, Shadow? You're still healing!"She admonished. But when he looked back at her, and his eyes filled with tears, a deep roaring sound filled her ears. If Mazlyn had let her, she would have gratefully returned to the abyss, as the looks of pity registered. Shadow instinctively held her tighter and Bella's violet eyes widened in horror as she whispered, "Where is Maria? Where is my daughter?" 4.

“The creature we fought, it targeted women. Maya, Kira, and I felt its energy before it attacked. It’s tied to Nightshade, isn’t it?” Damien’s jaw tightened, a shadow crossing his face. “Three young women have vanished in the past two months, all near Nightshade’s borders. Our elders, mothers, grandmothers, are acting distant, hearing whispers in their dreams. My own mother…” He paused, his voice catching. “She’s been waking at night, speaking of shadows calling her name. It’s tearing our pack apart.” Mikhail’s amber eyes narrowed. “You believe Nightshade’s rituals are behind this?”

A big one. I remembered everything I had passed through while serving in Shadowfang. Everything they put me through. Adrian's daughter, Lilith, wasn’t just cruel by name. She carried her father's darkness in her eyes and used it like a blade. Like her father, she was heartless and cold, and worse, she enjoyed watching me suffer.

The business man; his birth, his daughter’s birth, his daughter’s death and his wife’s suicide. They all ignored my presence, not knowing I was there. Not knowing a thing about me. But I knew everything about them, their dreams, their fears, their thoughts. Until it started building up, it led to a crescendo that I was powerless to stop. So, I screamed letting my voice fill all the cracks of all the pain I felt. Then it stopped. The voices, the memories they all stopped. And then I heard a faint voice. “Sorry. If I could just get this for my daughter.” I would recognize that voice from anywhere.

Callan and I start to growl at her, her smile is vicious. “Are you boys looking for my daughter? She did not come home but, I will tell you now, she is not your whore! Go fuck a mutt! Leave her alone!” she snarls. I had a feeling that I might face her, my father warned me about her, her father had told him, that he had a daughter that went dark years ago. He gave me a pill with powerful magic that blocks a dark one's attack. She closes her eyes and starts chanting, as she is distracted, we decided to try and drive away. Suddenly we felt something pulling on the car. It feel as if something has attached an anchor to the car and turned us into sitting ducks.

My sister spoke before I could ask how he knew we had grown up as rogues. “You know, Alpha Lucas, I would have thought you would recognize us. Your mate is the reason our mother is dead.” I snarled. “What accusation are you trying to make, exactly?” “Of course, the high and mighty Alpha would forget about us. Don’t you remember the she-wolf and her children that you took in? The unborn daughter you abandoned?” I pressed. “Adam?” Lucas gasped. “In the flesh, Alpha, and this is your daughter. Lizzy Devereaux, rightful Alpha of the Dark Moon pack.” I smirked, satisfied with the shock written across his face.
