Mate: Happy
Report
Nothing in our world is humane and normal. Especially not my mates. First, they killed my parents. I ran. But you can't run from the factions of the Fae, especially not them… Fae were the most powerful creatures in the world, as long as we had magic and our mate. Turns out I have not one mate but four, each one as brutal and cruel as the other. Darius was a Demonic-Fae, Tobias Vampiric-Fae, then there is Lycus, he is a Were-Fae, and let's not forget Kalen, Pure and devastatingly all Dark-Fae. They were all as cruel and as brutal as each other and they all wanted to destroy me. Now, I find myself at a crossroads, as I am being hunted by werewolves in an unfamiliar city, and I had to run to the very men I spent six years running from. I do the unthinkable. I send out a flare of my magic, an SOS to the very men I hide from. It doesn’t take long before I realize some things are worse than death. The men who wanted to destroy me, to claim me, to keep me. There was just one thing that they have forgotten. I was part of the darkness, too. And if they want to tempt darkness, they would eventually taste it, and nothing tastes sweeter than revenge.

Tempting Darkness Chapter 29
Aleera POVThe sound of squeaking woke me, and Lycus tapped my chest or thumped it like it was a damn drum. "Your turn," Lycus growls, rolling over before kicking backward. "Tobias, go before they screech!" Lycus snaps, and I blink up at the ceiling, wondering why he thinks I am Tobias and also what the heck he is talking about. Shaking my head at his terrible wake-up call, I climb over him and place my feet on the floor before rushing to the bathroom and having one of those, Ah…. moments from holding your bladder while torturously listening to a slow drip and not having a toilet in sight. After washing my hands, I hear the squeaking noises again and move back toward the room. Glancing at the bed, I notice Lycus, Kalen, and Tobias in bed. Darius is nowhere to be seen. Peering around the darkened room, I barely noticed him sitting on the couch by the fire that was slowly dying out. Sighing, I walk over to the fireplace when I see the crates holding the tiny Phoenixes sitting in front

Lycus POVStretching, I snuggle into Aleera. I have to scoot closer when I don't feel her. Patting the bed, I feel for her, but she is gone when I feel a foot. My brows scrunch together, and I sit up, thinking she must have awoken finally. Instead, I come face to face with a huge cock in my face."Geez, not what I want to wake up to first thing in the morning, Tobias," I growled. Tobias is standing over the top of me on the bed, his cock inches from my face when I sit up. Rubbing my eyes, I push on his thighs, but he slaps my hands. "Pay up," He purrs."Bit early for that. I need coffee first," I laugh."That's what your excuse was yesterday," Kalen says, and I glance over at him. Bloody traitor. I glare at him."It has come to my attention that you have not paid up on a single one of your cocksucking deals," Tobias says.He gripped my hair hard and closed to my scalp. I brought my hand up to his, wincing from the sensation's pain. My eyes were wide, surprised, as I tested my ability
Tempting Darkness Book 2 chapter 27
Tobias POVI have officially concluded that I am not father material. Aleera has been asleep for two days and is showing no signs of waking anytime soon. Her phoenixes were driving everyone insane. Chirping little fuckers were always hungry, and we had to syringe feed the balls of fleshy mush.Once again, I awoke in the middle of the night, or was it day? It has been two days, and I was losing track of time already. Fuck doing that for months on end, years even. At least Ryze knew not to shit on the damn floor or your shoulder when holding him. These bastards had no manners. And were devouring more worms than we could dig up. We had resorted to hand feeding them mushed-up Weetbix with a syringe. "I need sleep," Lycus growls, rolling into me. Placing his hand on my chest, he sleepily blinks down at me, a smirk on his lips. "I will suck and fuck the life out of you if you do this feed for me." I shake my head. It was his turn."Please? I need my beauty sleep. You could go without sle

Darius POVKalen tucked her closer as goosebumps pricked her skin, and she finally succumbed to the exhaustion. "We should get her inside. I think a storm is coming. The air is still charged," Lycus says, and I could feel his guilt. He believed this was his fault. I watch as he sniffs the air, looking at the dark clouds rolling across the sky, the heavy clouds and how fast it began to darken told me it would be a big one, that and the silence of the forest earlier while setting the wards up."What are we going to do with all these chicks?" Tobias states, grabbing one basket as I retrieved the other before my eyes fall on Aleera. "Are you right with her?" I ask Kalen, watching him stand with her limp body in his arms. “Of course,” He nodded, but for once, I noticed the darkness that usually surrounded him with death didn't this time, making me stare down at the basket in my hands of the tiny birds responsible for bringing him back to us. There was no cold feeling through the bond, no

"There's just one more," Darius murmurs as I stagger along, trying to keep up with him as he steps through the portal after portal while putting the wards back up. Darius wanted to infuse them with my magic this time to strengthen them.The exhaustion I was experiencing was excruciating. The amount of power I used had exhausted me, and I was becoming queasy and light-headed. My wings were dragging across the ground behind me because I couldn't figure out how to make them go away. Needing a break from the heavy weight of them on my back, I sat down on the moss-covered ground, my body felt like it had run a marathon."One more. I promise that is it," Darius says, looking down at me from where I sat next to the ward he had just set. "Just let me lay down for a second," I tell him, and he sighs loudly."We need to get the last ward back in place, then you can rest." Darius murmurs as he leans down, scooping me up."Watch my wings!" I shrieked when his arm moved across my back. He kisses

Aleera They killed him. They killed my mate, and I returned to my senses as I hit the ground. I had lost all control, driven by anger so hot I thought I would combust. "Aleera," Lycus murmured as I tried to clear my vision, my anger dying down and replaced with sadness and a hollowness that would never be filled; I was dead inside. And I felt my magic crashing as I did, seeping back into the earth, yet my magic was recharged, energized, yet ice cold in my veins when I heard Ryze screech. The fighting had stopped, and the bodies of our men and the power hunters lay on the ground. Few had survived, yet all I could think was Kalen was gone. That cold, sinking feeling made my bones ache as it settled over me.The weight was heavy, and I was drowning in despair. Is this what they felt every time he killed himself? No wonder they hated me. I couldn't live with this feeling, yet as my eyes searched for his body amongst the others, all I could see was carnage. "Kalen." I whimpered when Ry
Tempting Darkness Tasting Darkness Chapter 23
Lycus POVEverything stopped. My entire world stopped as a pain I wished I hadn't felt time and time again washed through me. It sucked the air from my lungs, and my body stopped fighting. The searing pain coursing through every nerve ending forced me to shift back, leaving me on top of the corpse of the person I had just killed. Yet it didn't save him.Only then do I see Kalen's name on my infinity mark turn grey fading out. He was dead, yet my heart still beat loudly in my chest. I do not know how, for I wished it stopped beating when his did. Yet the agonized scream of my mates made the world silent except for their agony. It was like time stopped when we all did. Turning my head, he lay there, dead, cold, and covered in blood. Lying in the dirt as if he wasn't the center that held us together, we were nothing without Kalen. He was our glue, and time and time again, he held us together and us him, knowing without him, none of us could go on living.Tobias collapsed to his knees. J
Tempting Darkness Tasting Darkness Chapter 22
Aleera It was utter chaos. My birds' screeching squawks ripped my heart to shreds as they began to fall, half of them torn to shreds when the man holding me under his spell was thrown into the castle wall. I collapsed on the ground, only to look up at the bloodshed surrounding me. I blinked, my eyes trying to track Tobias's blurring movement as he fought to get to Darius, who was surrounded by the hooded figures. His magic being the strongest, seemed to make him the biggest target. Turning my head, I saw an enormous wolf coming straight toward me, all claws and sharp gleaming teeth as it launched itself directly at me. I closed my eyes, waiting to be torn to shreds when its fur brushed past my face as it jumped over the top of me; a feral snarl tore from deep within its chest. I gasp, twisting to see its powerful jaws ripping the hooded figure I hadn't noticed coming up behind me. Blood sprays everywhere, coating me and the grass when I feel through the bond that it was Lycus. Ryz
