Tempting Darkness Chapter 40
At first, I thought I was staring at Tobias as a child, but it didn't take me long to realize it was his twin, Thomas. He would have only been about five-year-old. We were in what looked like some banquet room. A long table ran down the center as his father, who was an imposing man, snarled at Thomas. Tobias watched in horror as he grabbed his brother and then him by the back of the neck, dragging them closer to the table that lay in the center of the huge room. Blood spilled over the edges of the table onto the tiled floors. A woman with a crown atop her head glared at them with pursed lips. She reminded me of Tobias, making me wonder if it was his mother."Please, daddy, please," Thomas begged, and they are steered toward the table."You were both told not to come down here. Both told to stay in your rooms; this is what you get for disobeying me," the man snapped at his sons, his grip on both their necks was hard and pinched their skin.As we drew closer to the table, we found a wo
Tempting Darkness Chapter 41
The next memory morphed to their eighteenth birthday. Tobias heard a portal open and sat up, rubbing his eyes, his powers had manifested during the night, but too exhausted to care he never checked his infinity mark. He knew the familiar energy to be that of Darius. He yawns, stretching his arms above his head. Darius smirked as he stepped through the portal into Tobias's room, holding up his wrist. "It appears we are destined, brother," Darius tells him. Tobias' brows furrow as he yawns, looking at his wrist when Darius rubs his fingers over the infinity mark on his own, and Tobias gasps, glancing at his own when warmth spreads up his arm. Tobias chuckles. "Well, looks like you're not getting rid of me now," Tobias smiles. He was glad that his best friend was destined to be part of his life. Their brotherly bond is now completely solidified.Tobias stares down at the names on his wrist. "Fuck, feel sorry for whoever she is. I wonder who the other two are?" Tobias says, brushing his

Aleera’s face twists with rage, and she shoves me, making me stumble to catch her as she jumps me; I try to toss her off when her lips crash against mine, and I gasp at the force of my magic leaving me as she absorbs all my power, not leaving a drop. I feel the monster that lurks inside me rear its head as her bond latches onto mine. The nervous energy through the bond with our mates is palpable.Fear so strong, I could taste it as I fought to stop the darkest parts of me from taking over; we all knew she couldn’t handle the monster I could become. Yet, she was determined and refused to let go, making me stumble back onto the bed. She crashes on top of me, her legs straddling my waist, and she pins me with my own magic, her hands pressing against his chest.I growl at her, glaring up at her, and our mates back off—their energy ripples behind her as our gazes lock.“Three down, one to go,” she murmurs, and I watch horrified as she gives herself over to instinct, letting the bond force

Aleera POVA moan escapes me as I watch Kalen kiss Darius, his fingers wrapping around his cock, stroking his length while Tobias feeds from him.In return, I enjoy the sound of four, almost synchronized, growls as all eyes go to me. My blood suddenly rushes up to my cheeks, I know I'm blushing, but the burn isn't nearly as intense as the one between my legs. Kalen lets him go, stepping back Darius moves closer to the bed; Tobias and Kalen close in his step. Lycus grabs my breast, from where he lies beside me. Once I notice the desperate look in their eyes, I decide to give in and let them do whatever they want to me.My bond craved them and finally Darius was willing to complete the power exchange, the bond. Despite the pain throbbing between my legs, I wanted more, the bond craved it, craved them.Lycus shoves me on my back and I close my eyes, enjoying the sensory overload as all four caress my skin. I can tell apart their touches; I know which man's hand and precisely which palm

My hearing is the first to go; I am met with total darkness and utter silence for what felt like eons as his memory flickered to life. Blinking, I find we are in the mess hall, only it looks different. In his memory, it is some kind of ballroom, with heavy drapes covering the windows and a crystal chandelier glistening under the light, casting the ground in orbs of light as the sun shone in. “Now, Darius,” comes a deep, booming voice. Darius shakes his head. “No, please, father,” he begs. He must be about six years old. The room looked huge out of his eyes as he peered at the back of his father’s throne, which sat in the center of the room. His father looks over his shoulder, leaning over to peer around his chair. “I said now! Either them or you?” his father snarls at him. Darius shuffles his feet, drops his head, and moves closer to his father. His father grabs his shirt, hauling him in front of the throne. Darius sniffles and his father hits him up the back of the head. “Get on wi
Tempting Darkness Taming Darkness Chapter 4
In the next vision, I come to learn that Darius not handing Kalen over means he became the experiment, yet it still wasn’t clear to me why they were experimenting. However, it became clear why he hated my father. My father was the head scientist and the one that came up with the vile tests they ran on him, yet Darius didn’t hate him, not like he did his father. As Darius slumped over in the chair, drool dripping onto the floor after being shocked by electrodes, his father grabs his hair, lifting his head up. “He has had enough. Are you trying to kill your son, Xandrius?” my father asks him. So that was his father’s name, I had wondered, he hardly spoke of his father and no one referred to him by name. Xandirus Wraith was a monster.“What? Of course not, Grayson. I am just saying Darius can handle more than you think.” My father shakes his head, and Darius watches them, his vision fuzzy. He just wanted it to end. “We are so close to a breakthrough. We can replicate it, be all-powerfu

My heart stutters in the real world as I watch Darius father through his eyes. A tiny six-year-old boy, he clenches his jaw, steels his resolve and lift his chin, stepping through the portal back to his waiting father. The moment he does, his father grabbed him.“What have you done?” Xandrius growls at his son, shutting the portal.“He’s useless to you now, dad,” Darius says, his gaze ice-cold. His father snarls, backhands him, making him hit the ground. He lands on the floor on his stomach. He wipes his bleeding lip and rolls over, sitting up, just as his door burst open. Darius cold gaze moves to the door to see his mother. “No!” she snaps at Xandrius as he starts undoing his belt. “Get out, Lilith!” he yells at his wife. She shakes her head, this was nothing new for Darius, his mother always fought for him, even though it just got her hurt. Darius gets up, his mother attacking his father just as he is whipped with the belt. The blows are repeatedly rained down, his mother taking
Tempting Darkness Taming Darkness Chapter 6
Tobias Darius was gone, and we were sealed in by Darius’ magic. Aleera was stuck in this memories state, her eyes flitting back and forth, her power magnifying with each tortuous second that passed as I paced back and forth while getting dressed. Black and gold webbing bleeds out of her pores, spreading like a rash over most of her body, her breathing becoming rapid as we watch her. Kalen’s worry and fear bleeding into me like poison as he chews his nails, staring absently at where Darius just left through a portal. Lycus grips his hair, he now has shorts on, but his fear is also potent, only amplifying mine. “What are we going to do?” Lycus whines, she had only been out for a few minutes, yet that was long enough for Darius to escape us and trap us in this room. We could still feel him, though we knew he was badly injured. We have tried to break the seal that snared us in, yet we were just wasting the energy and power we needed when it dropped.With each passing second, we felt
