Chapter 23 - The Nightingale's
Erik’s P.O.V
I paced the old hag’s cabin, glancing towards my mate Freya occasionally. She looked almost peaceful in her current state, yet I was beyond worried. It had been a week since she had down this magic. Kaelb growled in frustration at the fact there was nothing we could do to help her. Sighing I continued my pacing. Chuckling at just how insane life had become in such a short time.
Remembering back to last week when I was so excited to have my mate and child home, to think that the council’s appearance on my land would be the worst of it. Now, look at us. Vampire attacks every night, each progressivel

Authors note:Hello dear readers, I am terribly sorry regarding the lack of updates on episodes. I have had a very sudden death in my family and as I'm sure you will understand have been dealing with all the emotions that come with it. I'm doing my best to finalize more chapters for this week but please be patient.Thank you for your understanding and without further ado let's go onto the next chapter.Emma’s P.O.VA piercing cold breeze awoke me with a terror-filled start. Shivering, I looked around this unfamiliar space I had found myself in. I was surrounded by greyish stone blocks that were icy cold to the touch. The room felt damp and yet there was no sign of any water. My once lovely dress hung in tatters against my moist skin. I closed my eyes tightly trying to remember the events that brought me here…Everything that had happened flooded my mind at once as tears fell freely from my wide-open eyes. Mother... Sera..
A Sacred Place Chapter 25 - Conquest
Damon's P.O.VChaotic. That was the word to describe Alpha Erik’s pack this past week. My father had explained that war had been declared between the packs after the last meeting over my mate. My Luna. Alpha Paul apparently was the ring-leader, calling for my precious Luna to be given over the leaches as a ‘gift’ for peace. The disgusting old man should have been killed on the spot, apparently, Alpha Erik had stopped that from happening which I could not understand. My Luna had refused to even look at me since I instructed Carlos to protect her, apparently, she had a fiery rage and was not scared to give him a talking to. I wish she would just let me explain that if anything would to ever happen to her my heart would shatter. I could never allow harm to come to her. My worry was even worse knowing her vampire sister disappeared without a trace. So strange that not a single person smelt anything or heard anything. Either that vampire girl was incredibly power
A Sacred Place Chapter 26 - Self-Hatred
Sera's P.O.VOne would assume after a rejection that one would stop making a Beta stalk me. But no. Carlos was still on my heel refusing to let me be by myself. Star had been sulking in the corner of my mind, furious I had attempted to reject Damon. I just couldn't understand why she was so keen on him? Like yeah, she had explained that it was destined, that the Moon Goddess herself picked out our soul mates but that was sooo far-fetched. True love, soul mates. Whatever you wanted to call it does not exist. It's just a fairy tale.“Why are you fighting this Sera?”Star was agitated, I ignored her. Refusing to let the memories of Stan come back but Star had caught that thought of course.“You shouldn’t try and hide things from me, we are one of the same.”I sighed inwardly, allowing her to reach those memories. Of the time I was certain he was the one, my soul mate. Of the pain, the embarrassment of my body being
A Sacred Place Chapter 27 - Rescue
Freya's P.O.VI hated this void. It was as if I was stuck in my own never-ending nightmare. Scenes of my daughters fighting each other, ripping out their throats. Images of innocent children being slaughtered, of homes being burnt to voices of those I had lost. At first, I had wondered if these things were just my own worries coming forth, but I also wondered if there was some truth to them. Ever since I could remember the secret of my heritage haunted me. Knowing that one of our ancestors had done the darkest, most vial things. Really, my ancestor had started The Night of Blood. All because she refused to marry Aamon’s son. My Emma, her heritage… she was indeed an ancient vampire. Her mother’s name had been the clue I had looked past. Rubi Cantavilli… she was related in some way to him… Aamon Cantavilli… The Goddess had a sense of humour, making our families join in one way or another. *** Flashback ***I gig
A Sacred Place Chapter 28 - Panic
Damon's P.O.VMy mind had been punishing me as of late, playing the previous day’s events on repeat. Seeing Sera, our mate, in all her glory. Her perfectly curved body just begging to be touched, she smooth skin under my own. The way her lips kissed mine, hungry and longingly. That moment when I connected with her, finally claiming my mate as mine. It had been perfect, it had been everything I had hoped and more. And yet… she had almost rejected me… How? How could my mate even give that a thought? I had wanted nothing more than to run to her room, to beg and plead for her to just give me a chance. To show her that I truly loved her.“She still thinks as a human.”Sam piped in, he too was still nursing the heartbreak of her words.“We must treat her as if we were dating a human.”I could not agree more, we had to show her that the mate bond was a gift. Humans couldn’t feel their soul mate like we cou
A Sacred Place Chapter 29 - Failure
Sera's P.O.V“Star?”I called inwards, she had been quiet for too long. Leaving me here truly alone. In this cold darkened place, I’d only had my wolf for such a short time and yet I couldn’t handle the thought of being alone again. I shook my arms as the metal shackles holding me against the wall made a clinking sound. My body was sore, it felt as though I had been running for days. My skin was flushed, bruised and my hair had matted already. The cage door opened as a monster of a man entered, he was built like one of those bodybuilders from T.V. I felt my heart flutter in fear as his eyes glowed a bright red, he smirked at me.“It’s not very often we get dogs here.”His tone was cold and collected, almost business-like which was terrifying. He smirked at me before raising an eyebrow in confusion.“And yet… you don’t smell like the usual ones…”He bent down to rummage
A Sacred Place Chapter 30 - Heritage
Emma's P.O.VMy head ached, my lips and throat were as dry as a desert. The disgusting and vile taste of copper from what that strange man had put in my mouth lingered. My eyes ached from all the sobbing I had done. I had to come to terms with the simple fact, I wasn’t going to be rescued. For whatever reason, I had been forsaken. The depression kept sweeping through me at the thought of never seeing my mother or Sera again. What had I ever done to deserve this? My body thankfully felt numb, I guess the mix of time and the cold had stopped the bleeding. My capture, that man, he had returned a few times to visit me. It was so strange how he spoke to me, mostly he was apologetic and sweet. Every now and then he would cut me, force more of that putrid copper stuff into my mouth and force me to swallow it.I heard the cell door jingle and open, he had returned.“Princess… I’m sorry…”His teeth were gritted this time as if
A Sacred Place Chapter 31 - Rubi
Aamon's P.O.VI sat at the head of my grand oak table, contemplating just how I should punish Luci for her childish actions. I picked up a crystal glass of fresh Nightingale blood taking a long sniff of its subtle sweet aroma. My mind taking me back to a time where I had the pleasant experience of drinking my wife’s blood for the first time. I glanced towards my granddaughter Emma, her pale face held upwards she was staring at the ceiling in deep thought. I brought my glass to my lips, swirling the Goddess’s gift before taking a deep drink. This ones’ blood was different, it held a spicy aftertaste of magic. Curious.“Grandfather….”Emma’s innocent voice called out, a question forming on her face.“What are you?”I kept my mind focused on not letting a smile escape, this girl had been sheltered from our true nature. Perhaps that was done in error, or to protect her. But that was going to be the
