Chapter 27 - Rescue
Freya's P.O.V
I hated this void. It was as if I was stuck in my own never-ending nightmare. Scenes of my daughters fighting each other, ripping out their throats. Images of innocent children being slaughtered, of homes being burnt to voices of those I had lost. At first, I had wondered if these things were just my own worries coming forth, but I also wondered if there was some truth to them. Ever since I could remember the secret of my heritage haunted me. Knowing that one of our ancestors had done the darkest, most vial things. Really, my ancestor had started The Night of Blood. All because she refused to marry Aamon’s son. My Emma, her heritage… she was indeed an ancient vampire. Her mother’s name had been the clue I had looked past. Rubi Cantavilli… she was related in some way to him… Aamon Cantavilli… The Goddess had a sense of humour, making our families join in one way or another.

Damon's P.O.VMy mind had been punishing me as of late, playing the previous day’s events on repeat. Seeing Sera, our mate, in all her glory. Her perfectly curved body just begging to be touched, she smooth skin under my own. The way her lips kissed mine, hungry and longingly. That moment when I connected with her, finally claiming my mate as mine. It had been perfect, it had been everything I had hoped and more. And yet… she had almost rejected me… How? How could my mate even give that a thought? I had wanted nothing more than to run to her room, to beg and plead for her to just give me a chance. To show her that I truly loved her.“She still thinks as a human.”Sam piped in, he too was still nursing the heartbreak of her words.“We must treat her as if we were dating a human.”I could not agree more, we had to show her that the mate bond was a gift. Humans couldn’t feel their soul mate like we cou

Sera's P.O.V“Star?”I called inwards, she had been quiet for too long. Leaving me here truly alone. In this cold darkened place, I’d only had my wolf for such a short time and yet I couldn’t handle the thought of being alone again. I shook my arms as the metal shackles holding me against the wall made a clinking sound. My body was sore, it felt as though I had been running for days. My skin was flushed, bruised and my hair had matted already. The cage door opened as a monster of a man entered, he was built like one of those bodybuilders from T.V. I felt my heart flutter in fear as his eyes glowed a bright red, he smirked at me.“It’s not very often we get dogs here.”His tone was cold and collected, almost business-like which was terrifying. He smirked at me before raising an eyebrow in confusion.“And yet… you don’t smell like the usual ones…”He bent down to rummage
A Sacred Place Chapter 30 - Heritage
Emma's P.O.VMy head ached, my lips and throat were as dry as a desert. The disgusting and vile taste of copper from what that strange man had put in my mouth lingered. My eyes ached from all the sobbing I had done. I had to come to terms with the simple fact, I wasn’t going to be rescued. For whatever reason, I had been forsaken. The depression kept sweeping through me at the thought of never seeing my mother or Sera again. What had I ever done to deserve this? My body thankfully felt numb, I guess the mix of time and the cold had stopped the bleeding. My capture, that man, he had returned a few times to visit me. It was so strange how he spoke to me, mostly he was apologetic and sweet. Every now and then he would cut me, force more of that putrid copper stuff into my mouth and force me to swallow it.I heard the cell door jingle and open, he had returned.“Princess… I’m sorry…”His teeth were gritted this time as if
A Sacred Place Chapter 31 - Rubi
Aamon's P.O.VI sat at the head of my grand oak table, contemplating just how I should punish Luci for her childish actions. I picked up a crystal glass of fresh Nightingale blood taking a long sniff of its subtle sweet aroma. My mind taking me back to a time where I had the pleasant experience of drinking my wife’s blood for the first time. I glanced towards my granddaughter Emma, her pale face held upwards she was staring at the ceiling in deep thought. I brought my glass to my lips, swirling the Goddess’s gift before taking a deep drink. This ones’ blood was different, it held a spicy aftertaste of magic. Curious.“Grandfather….”Emma’s innocent voice called out, a question forming on her face.“What are you?”I kept my mind focused on not letting a smile escape, this girl had been sheltered from our true nature. Perhaps that was done in error, or to protect her. But that was going to be the

Sera's P.O.V“Sera!!!?”A familiar, honey-like voice called to me as my body shook violently.“Sera!!?? Please! Baby!”I slapped away the hands shaking me, a little annoyed at being woken up.“Oh thank the Goddess! Sera!”A pleasant-smelling and warm man pulled me up into his arms, hugging me tightly. I opened my eyes, being blinded by sunlight I quickly closed them again.“I thought… When I saw you laying there…”The strange man’s voice was breaking in grief, my heart hurt hearing his sadness. I tried again to open my eyes, squinting I looked at him. Remembering. Damon. All at once I felt aroused, shame, longing, joy, and happiness.“Damon?”My voice was dry, it was painful to talk. How long had I been unconscious?“Yes! My sweet Luna! My Sera!”He looked at me, tears falling down his gorgeous face. I held ou
A Sacred Place Chapter 33 – Preparations
Rodrick’s P.O.VI could have never dreamed of how chaotic life had become. If my father had told me before he died that becoming a Beta of the pack would end up landing me in the Alpha’s place, I would have never accepted the role. Alpha Erik had been missing for a week at this point, no one had been able to reach him. Part of me understood why I mean he had to go after the Luna. Luna Freya’s disappearance after her coma had really hit him hard, he had refused to leave her side the entire time. The day Herman convinced him to leave to eat, shower, and relax his daughter Sera had run off as well. Panicked he left Luna Freya for moments to try and organize a party to go after her, that’s all it took for her to take off.At first, we had all thought she went after Sera herself, but when Sera and Damon returned without her Alpha Erik went off the handle. Leaving soon after.“Beta, concentrate! We need to settle where my warriors will be

Freya’s P.O.V“The headaches have not stopped, have they, my dear?”Cindy’s voice was cold yet I could hear her concern, I knew I was pushing myself but I had to. I had to do this to protect my children.“It is no problem, Cindy. Keep going.”Cindy and I were sat cross-legged opposite each other hands touching in a clearing near the ocean. We had been attempting to unlock the barriers I had set up since my childhood to suppress my bloodline’s magic. Each attempt had failed, causing me the worst migraines of my life.“Not even a whisper from the shadows?”Cindy asked, desperation clear in her voice. Looking at my mother figure she seemed tired, I mean she was on the older side but it had never really shown on her face before. It did now. I could tell her energy was fading from tapping into my mind. I shook my head, her face dropped mirroring my disappointment.“This plan of yo
A Sacred Place Chapter 35 – Something Sweet
Sera’s P.O.VTime had honestly lost all meaning to me. Between trying to figure out the best way to rescue Emma, trying to find my mother OR father, and the impending war I was at a loss. What day was it even? How long had it been since I had returned? My physical body had made a full recovery but the voices… they had worsened. Herman had me on some sort of medication in the hopes of making them stop, but sadly that also made it impossible to try and locate Star. Herman told me she was still there, that she could still feel me but I wasn’t so sure anymore. It sure was lonely inside my head.The one thing I wished I could discuss with her was Damon. Maybe I had been too quick to push away the notion of true love and mates. Because there was something… something almost magical that keeps us near each other. Every time we were apart I would feel physical pain until I was near him again. He told me that was due to him not yet wearing my mark, I st
