"Shit."Blaze let out a groan as he glimpsed the greenish liquid coming out of the injury inflicted on Arabella. She was still passed out, and by the look of the things, it didn't look as though she would come to any moment from now.Moreover, the injury was infected.Blaze knew a lot about the werewolf rogues moving about in Cooan.They were poisonous werewolves that never hesitated to inject their poisons into any supernatural beings they attacked. Even human. The reason for injecting them with poison was to render them powerless before feeding on them.That would have been the fate of Arabella if he hadn't arrived.Yet, he was not lucky enough for her not to get poisoned. He was only fortunate they hadn't fed on her.Blaze had never thought anyone he knew would be in the position to have been beaten or scratched by them.He caressed Arabella's cheek, brushing out the hair on her face as he stepped on the gas pedal. He didn't know exactly where he was going, but he knew staying clos
"Arabella." Blaze gripped her hand, pulling her back, but she slapped his hand away and unlocked the car."Bella." He called desperately to her, but it felt like he was talking to himself and a hard wall.He watched her with wide eyes as she stepped out of the car and walked towards the black figure.Blaze came down as well. He didn't know what was happening to her, but he couldn't let her go to the black figure alone.He halted a few metres from where the black figure was, and he frowned.Blaze rubbed his clammy palms on the leather pant he donned and shook his head.He was terrified, and it wasn't because the area they were in got darker.The moon going back in contributed to his fear, and it was the fact that he could not tell what specie the figure was.Although he was aware it was a Supernatural being, he didn't know what exactly it was.Blaze moved towards Bella and gripped her hand. He turned her to face him, and he cupped her face."Look at me, Bella." He said firmly.Her eyes
Janice gulped as she stared at Annalise once more. She shook her head, not believing she was in front of her.Walking towards her, she gripped her hand. A gasp escaped her lips as she felt how warm it was to her touch. She was real.Even though Janice didn't need the affirmation as she had pinched herself and felt the pain. She still did it because it was surprising to see her.Annalise was her twin sister. They both lived with their father until she left.Annalise being in The De Luca's household didn't make her happy.Instead, Janice was furious. She let out a frustrated sigh and glared."What are you doing here? You should be with father!"Janice's plan would get foiled. Annalise's presence would destabilise everything, and her secret would be known in no time.Annalise shook her head. Janice was in front of her. She had felt her hands. She was real.She had assumed Janice was dead due to the many stories their father had told her. Also, she had felt the twin bond between them seve
Sandro paced around the large meeting hall and balled his hands into fists. He gritted his teeth and glared at nothing in particular. How had he not noticed?He must have been too preoccupied with his problem to have thought of that.Allesia had escaped the same way as Arabella, and he wondered how no one saw her leave as well.He glared at the gathered Werewolves, and his eyes narrowed on Francis."Where the hell is Janice?"Francis stood to his feet abruptly. He shook his head and wrung his finger together. "I do not know." He stammered, avoiding the glare Sandro was shooting his way.Francis hadn't seen Janice since last night. And he assumed she was mad at him for having kissed her without permission.It wasn't his fault, he had wanted to do so, and he had used the opportunity."How the hell don't you know? Isn't she your girl?!" Sandro glared."She isn't my girl," Francis mumbled. Then he heaved a breath and glanced around as if she'd magically popped out.But she had also denied
"That's an interesting update, daughter dearest." Paolo grinned, stroking his moustache. "She'd be one of the pawns to us being the most influential and powerful people in this world.""Sandro weakens by the day, and we need to act fast. I do not think there's a cure at present for him. He often used some shot given by his Beta, but I doubted it is available now." Janice said. Paolo nodded. He stretched out his hand, and Janice reluctantly placed hers on his.He squeezed it gently before caressing it.Janice squirmed under his scrutiny. She attempted to yank her hand away, but he held on tighter.She grimaced as he continued to watch her, and that made her even more uncomfortable."What is it, my little lamb? Didn't you miss daddy?" Paolo raised his brow.Janice swallowed down the lump in her throat. And she yanked her hand away from his before standing to her feet."I came back to give you the information you needed. I think I fulfilled all that you asked of me. It's your turn to do
They were in a bottomless pit. That was Blaze's guess. He could see nothing, and there was no light even to know if they were in a sort of cave or not.The worse was his secondary vision didn't work. It was as if he was blind. It was frustrating, but he had Arabella with him. That he was grateful for, she was curved into him and even during the fall, she didn't let him go."What's that?" Arabella asked.Blaze frowned as he stared at Arabella, even though she couldn't see him and he couldn't see her.However, he was startled. She had been badly wounded, yet she was still conscious. What exactly was she?He had never seen a supernatural creature that could stay a long while after ingesting the poisons from the rogues.At least, not Arabella; that seems as though she was an amateur.Yet, he doubted she knew anything. She had opened the portal, and only someone that had been practising magic for a long time could have that much power."What do you mean?" Blaze asked."That bright light ov
Arabella writhed on the bed, and Blaze furrowed his brows. He rubbed at his tired eyes and watched her. She had been thrashing around for some minutes, and he had tried his best to shake her awake. It didn't work. Heck, nothing seems to be working!Blaze watched Arabella mutter helplessly while tightening his hold on her hand.Arabella let out a shrill cry. She yanked at the chain used to hold her down in several places, but it didn't give away."Blaze!" She yelled. However, nothing happened. He still lay sprawled on the floor and in his pool of blood.If she didn't act fast, he was going to die."He's meant to die."Arabella gazed around. She saw no one. She narrowed her eyes at the walls and yelled."Fucking show your face, coward. You enjoy seeing a helpless girl in pain and killing an innocent man?!""You call yourself helpless? Arabella Collins, or should I say the Delicate Rose!"Arabella shook her head. The latter wasn't her name. She didn't know who that was, but she had heard
Arabella let out a sigh for the umpteenth time. She had passed by the hundredth person, she believed; he had bowed to her, and so did the rest.She wondered what Orga had told them as they all stared at her in awe. Like she was, a kind of God that had come to redeem them. Or maybe they were all staring at her because she was the only one without a wing. And Blaze too. Yet, they didn't accord the same respect to Blaze.Perhaps, she should start getting used to it, seeing as Orga told her she was a powerful being but having hundreds of eyes looking at her as though she had suddenly sprouted a horn was unnerving.Orga halted in front of what seemed to be a large gallery. Different large portraits decorated the wall, and with each one Arabella passed, it felt as though it was alive.She shuddered as she licked her bottom lip. Her eyes darted around as she sensed eye movement on her, or maybe she was being paranoid.But then, she seemed to be the only one distracted. Blaze and Orga walked
