OdessaWith a blink of my eyes, I woke up in yet another strange place. It wasn’t the dark cave that I had now come to call home and loved. The softer bed underneath my back reminded me of the treehouse back with the elves, and that’s exactly what it was.I was back in our smaller tree house where we had been staying with the elves. The gigantic bed was sunken and a large arm covered me. Now the tingles were stronger. The hot flashes of his arm had me instantly humming in contentment. How did we end up back here? Surely not all of it was a dream.My hand went to my shoulder, and sure enough, I felt the indentions in my shoulder where his fangs pierced my skin. Instantly I shivered. They felt so good to touch.Creed’s eyes were closed, his breathing heavy and steady as I faced him. His brows were furrowed, but instantly relaxed once feeling my gaze. I felt a wave of calm overcome my body while his body sunk deeper into the fluffy mattress

AmoraNicholas' deep blue dragon flew me home. His wings were so powerful, using them sparingly as he slid through the trees of our home. His swift leathered wings were the fastest of our tribe besides Adam.Nicholas had become my best companion since Creed was exiled from the tribe. He consoled me when Adam was too busy speaking with the elders of rules and guidelines in Creed's exile. Nicholas was actually new to the tribe then, only moved in because he could not find his mate, but we obviously hit it off nicely. We were instantly close. I felt he could feel my dragon's sorrow when my spirit brother was no longer with me.Creed and Adam were the closest things I had to a family before my blood family passed away in a vampire spat. At the same time, they traveled across the pride lands of the Moon Kingdom. They had made various trinkets beauty potions that the jaguars, panthers, and cheetah females like to decorate themselves with. The rogue vampires came out o

 Odessa The howls of laughter outside had me gripping Creed’s back for dear life. He wasn’t slow and calculating in his steps to ensure that I wouldn’t fall. Oh no, he had my legs gripped in a vice around his body as he ran through the cave. I would hate to know how fast we would travel on foot if a vampire tried to run after us. The cool cave tickled my backside, causing my tunic to ride up slightly. The long narrow mouth of the cave opened up to a giant room smelling of sea salt with a hint of the breezy beach. I barely got to look around until my back hit something incredibly soft. It was an entire bed. How they got it in here was beyond me. They must have built it inside the cave, bringing it in piece by piece. I thought it was just a cave, worried I would be making love on the coldness of rock and sand, but I was so utterly wrong, like I am most of the time in this world. The room was filled with expensive things, large tulle hanging around

 AmoraWilla and Orion led me back to the castle, leaving my spirit brother back at the cave. I wrung my hands feverishly, the bond trying to pull me back to Adam. It wasn’t often I left the tribe, and when I did it was only for short bursts of time. I felt at home there despite almost all of it being fabricated.“Amora?” Willa grabbed my hand. Her white hair glowed brightly in the light sources. She had become a wonderful friend in a short amount of time. I’ve become closer to her than any other woman besides Adam Creed’s mother. “Is there anything we can do for you? We have your quarters ready. Guards are standing by your room, and the entire nation is on high alert.” Sighing heavily, I squeezed her hand. Willa barely knew me, but our friendship bond was strong.“This is perfect, thank you,” I whispered. “Thank you for everything,” I sniffed. The bond continued to tug at me, making me anxio

 Amora“Come, come, this will be fairly quick.” The Fae Kingdom’s head witch, Davina, was guiding us through the forest with an entire entourage in toe. King Orion stood in front while Willa gripped my hand tightly, keeping me from falling. I couldn’t believe that I had black magic on me, but then again, this was Adam. He had lied to me for so many years and who knows how long this had been going on. What was the black magic doing to me?My feet stumbled. Nicholas, not far behind, grabbed me by the shoulders, only nodding, keeping me steady. He had been quiet the entire afternoon and the walk leading up to the magic to be cast out.“Just a little further.” The fae guard were wearing their silver armor. The clanking of the metal gave shivers down to my bones as the night continue to grow darker and the trees overhead blocked the stars.“It’s going to be alright,” Willa cooed at me. “Then we c
