Alpha Jackson looked at Luciano with sad eyes wondering what kind of a man he was to ask him something like that. “Please, don’t make me do this.” The all-mighty alpha was on his knees at that point, he did not want to lose his son and he was not ready to die yet.The roles were now reversed, and he was faced with the same situation he put Maria through. Like her, the choices he had were like no choices at all. At least not ones he could live with.“You must think you are a saint to ask me to spare you or maybe you are, and I just don’t know it.” He chuckled dropping Eric at his feet like a sack of potatoes then walked closer to Alpha Jackson.“Do you think you are worthy of saving Jackson? How about this, we make this a confession session, you tell me your truth and I will spare your son.” Alpha Jackson felt like he was met with the devil himself or maybe the judge sitting on a high pedestal in all his goodness judging everyone else.Luciano’s action made him angry and sick. His son
James, the dragon lord has been restless the whole night. He could not sleep and did not know the reason why. He woke up in the early hours of the morning and went downstairs. His mansion was right behind the volcano mountain, hidden from everyone.“Sire, morning greetings, why are you up this early?” Jonas the help asked, he knew James better than anyone and he knew that he never wakes up early. Seeing him up and about this early was surprising.“I could not sleep at all last night, it felt like something was about to happen, but I could not figure out what. Even now I still have the same feeling.” Jonas wondered what could be bothering his master.No one knew they were there, and they never had problems with humans or any other supernatural beings. He wondered if maybe someone had seen their mansion and are now coming for them.He did not voice his concerns to his master instead suggested. “You have been couped up in here for a while now, master, why don’t you go and spread your win
James never left his room since he came back with his mate. He just wore clothes after Jonas reminded him that it might not be a good idea for the she-wolf to see him naked when she wakes up.James was obedient and did as Jonas said. This made Jonas think that he did the right thing by contacting his brother because there was no way James would take orders from him. When he was done changing, he sat back at the foot of the bed watching the little woman sleep.Suddenly, Maria stretched her limbs and turned when she felt the silk sheets against her skin. Her movements startled the man sitting at the foot of the bed that he quickly stood and went to hide in the dark corner of the room.The little woman got the mighty beast nervous for no reason. Mmm silk, the last time she slept on silk sheets was when…when it registered to her, she jumped and sat up then started scanning the room.By this time James was watching her while standing in the dark corner of the room, suddenly feeling nervous
James shook in anger; he did not understand how the vampires could have found his mansion and why they came. Did one of them maybe see him when he picked Maria up from the forest. “How many?” He was ready for war.He has been staying in that mountain for years avoiding any other supernatural species because he did not want to be bothered. But now they were seeking him out, why? He had so many questions but no answers to any of them.Also, he was afraid that they might be after his mate, maybe they are the ones she was running from when he found her. But whatever the reason, he was not prepared to lose her. He just found her, and he liked the feeling he was experiencing while around her.He wanted to keep her by his side and experience that feeling every waking day. But he could not do that now with vampires about to storm the castle. “I don’t know exactly but they were quite many. I only saw them from afar.” Ricky looked at his brother then back at Jonas.“Why are you looking at him,
The vampire hissed at the dragon while he screeched in warning. Maria’s vampire marking started bleeding. The scent of blood got the two creatures to stop and look at their mate. When they saw the blood, they reacted and went closer to her. But she slipped between them and went to stand at a distance.She then looked at them baring her canines and growling. She was scared and had no idea what to do to get out of the situation. There was a huge dragon in front of her, a creature she thought was extinct and the oldest vampire alive.She could feel both the creatures’ powers, for some reason she could tell how much power each one of them possessed. Which was strange, she did not have that ability before, which was another thing that got her scared and confused.The two creatures both took a step towards her, and she growled defensively, and they both stopped. “Calm down, I don’t want to hurt you. We are mates, if you could just take a moment, you would realize that.” Lorenzo told her wit
Lorenzo paced the room refusing to accept what Maria was telling them. James just sat there looking defeated, he did expect to be rejected but he did not expect her to be the one to ask them to reject her. He thought she was going to choose between them but now.Now everything was different, she placed the decision on them, and he could not fantom why she would do that. “What is it that makes you say you are not worthy? I have not deemed you unworthy in fact, I am looking forward to getting to know you.”He got up and went to kneel in front of her. “When I met you, I wondered why the gods would pair me up with a werewolf but that was only a fleeting thought because after that, all I could think about is how much I want to hold you in my arms. How I want to get to know you and do everything with you. How do you expect me to forget what I am feeling and reject you?”Lorenzo looked at his mate then James. He never wanted to share his mate, vampires are not good at sharing and now he was
It’s been over nine hours and the cell was now bloody and smelled of the metallic scent of blood mixed with wolf bane. Alpha Jackson looked like he had already given up on life while alpha Luciano looked calm.The man even looked like he was enjoying every moment of the torture he was giving the good alpha of the Eclipse Pack. Well, the Eclipse now belonged to Luciano. “I can go on for hours, I know which places to exploit in a human body without killing them.”He walked to the bucket filled with wolfbane and picked it up, bringing it closer to where Jackson laid. He dipped his silver knife into the bucket then turned to look at Jackson. “All you have to do to get me to stop is tell me how you did it, how you killed your Luna and beta.”Alpha Jackson could not understand why that information was important to alpha Luciano. What he did not know was that the Damned alpha was not that damned after all. The man was only looking out for the defenseless. Young women like his sister who die
Alpha Luciano arrived at the Eclipse Pack early the following morning. The gamma of the pack had already informed everyone of their defeat and their alpha’s capture. No one was at ease after hearing the news, everyone feared what the Damned alpha was going to do with them and their pack. Already Eric looked like he was not going to make it through the night.No one slept well that night as a result they were up in the early hours, most were just laying on their beds wondering what the day was going to bring for them.The gamma as the only leader available woke up and went to the alpha’s office. He did not have anything to do there, he just wanted to get away from his family’s questioning gazes.He did not know what assurances to give them and had no answers to any of the questions they had. So, he did the only thing he could do, run to the alpha’s office pretending to have a lot of work to do since the alpha was indisposed.Just as he sat down a warrior knocked on the door, the gamma
