Lisa couldn't understand what was going on. First, she felt an overwhelming and inexplicable fury stemming from seeing Jacob hurting her mom. Then everything was red. Her wolf seemed to enjoy the hunting. Suddenly, a burning sensation, stemming from her midsection, started eating at her organs that drove her to her knees, and then, an unbearable itching underneath her skin. She heard distinct popping sounds as her muscles and bones stretch and pulled. She whimpered as her body was drawn taut and a sudden flash of bright light engulfed her writhing form.
Lisa thought. 'Fuck I have four legs! I will not freak out. I will not freak out.' She repeated to herself like a mantra.
As the light slowly dissipated, there was a harsh panting and whining from the direction of the floor. She sensed Ruben before she even heard his deep, rumbling voice. The fast clatter of footsteps heralded the men as he burst inside. Ruben was at the very front, followed closely behind by a dangerou
Ruben wondered where was Katie with all the clothes and food he had ordered for. He had promised himself an hour, and he intended to make good use of that for what brief time he had left before dealing with the legal mess he would have to deal with. He had left Keith in charge, while his contacts in the local police were going to pass off Jacob's death as a random wolf attack. Lisa's mother was in the pack infirmary, as they had no idea how much she had seen. It was better to monitor her in the pack than some hospital outside where she could talk. He looked in amusement at his mate practising 'shifting'. She was transforming back and forth between human and her wolf form. Trying to get better control. She looked at him expectantly after her third change. As if she was waiting for him to say some words of appreciation. Ruben decided that at the very least he needed to make sure she was okay before they headed downstairs, and she had to deal with everything. He rea
"Master, the elder is here to see you." A soft polite voice broke his reverie, and Sebastian turned to face the stiff-looking butler. Daniel has been in his service for the last 50 years. "Send him in," Sebastian said and tightened his robe. The elders were a group of oldest vampires who acted as the governing body for the vampires. They didn't have much to do as most covens were self-managed, the elders just made sure that the vampires were following the laws and not endangering their existence. On rare occasions, they also caught and punished the wayward vampires. There was just one sacred rule, never reveal yourself to humans unless they were to be sired. Even killing the humans was forbidden, the vampires had to just suck enough blood so that the human didn't die. But it was often overlooked. The homeless, the prostitutes and the similar dregs of the society was their easy target, no one missed them. "Marcus, what a pleasure," Sebastian smiled at the youthful
Lisa walked the rest of the way to the clearing in silence. In the middle of the thick forest, the area opened up suddenly to about the length of a football field both ways. In the middle was a circle of stone pillars spaced about 10 feet apart. Inside the pillars was an open space with flat stones interspaced in the short grass. The stone circle was set a little lower than the rest of the land and made the place look like a Roman amphitheatre. This is where their mating ceremony had taken place. There was no signal to start the fight, it just started. James rushed towards Ruben while he was still in human form. Narrowly avoiding claws, Ruben threw the wolfman to the ground and circled, shifting as he did. James got up and came back at him, using a little more stealth this time. James managed to cut Ruben's arm with a clawed hand, and Lisa had to put her hands over her mouth to keep from screaming out loud. She looked on horrified as the men fought. Sensing an
Ruben had decided not to drop in on Lisa, her silence said she wanted to be alone. Being a good mate, he understood her needs. So, he did not see her for the rest of the day. When he made it back to the bedroom, he was surprised she wasn't there. His wolf urged him to go hunt her down, but he calmed himself. He wanted to avoid jeopardizing anything. When his door sprung open, he was already stretched out on the bed reading a book. He had taken off his shirt and was in his pyjama bottoms. He dropped the book and went to greet Lisa. Andrea stuck her head in and waved at him. Lisa looked relaxed and smiled at him. Ruben raised an eyebrow, sniffed. “Were you drinking wine, in the middle of the day?” he asked. “Believe it or not, I am completely sober,” she said. “I was in the common room with the girls. Beth was telling some interesting stories. I needed it.” “Her stories are annoying, isn'
Tatiana moved in close and licked Sebastian's ear once more, making Sebastian groan. He generally enjoyed these encounters, but she was driving him crazy today. Her throaty chuckle irritated him, and despite her best efforts and flirtation, he couldn't stop himself from feeling disgusted. He had to admit that there was only one lady he wanted wriggling on his lap at that very moment, and it wasn't the vampire he was holding. He was irritated by the frustration.Andrea was nothing more than a pleasant diversion for him. So, how come he couldn't get her out of his head? Why couldn't he just tuck the sultry vampire into his lap? He'd never had issues like this before. All he wanted was that sweet, spicy smell and those green eyes staring back at him as he pressed himself against her. He let out a deep groan as he felt soft lips sliding across his neck, and he realised Tatiana was kissing him. He had to intervene before things got out of hand, and he ended up hurting her feelings in the p
"What the fuck was that? You disobedient, disrespectful little wench!" Sebastian growled at Andrea as he flung her into the penthouse without mercy. She stumbled, grasped the back of the couch for support, and then returned her gaze to him. It took everything she had not to shift and bite the obnoxious vampire. "What is it that you are so angry about? You just got a bit drenched. That's a little price to pay for all you've done behind my back, pick up another woman!" She spoke up; it was the first time she had spoken to him since she had arrived at the pub. She took a step closer to him and shouted. "Did you think I'd let you off the hook? With that sort of attitude?" She was enraged. Sebastian was leaning against the door, trying hard not to burst out laughing. His initial rage at her behaviour was dissipating. Instead, he found himself mildly amused by her minor outburst. His little spitfire smelled of jealousy.But he couldn't just let this go. One part of him wanted to scold
Andrea's hands were threading through the thick hair as Sebastian teased her lips. It didn't take much time for them to get rid of their clothes. Her knees felt weak, and she was glad that she wasn't the one standing. For the moment she let him have his way because his mouth was doing such delicious things below, but later on, she was going to take the next step.Her grip tugged his hair as he licked quickly, growling loudly. They were parted for very long, and she was taken over by the all-consuming need for him. Her breath came out in short, hard pants as she thrust herself eagerly against him, desperate for more. Urging him to help her reach her completion as soon as possible.“Please Sebastian,” she groaned hoarsely, a breathy plea in her voice.He answered in a growl, quickly hauling her legs over his shoulders. Her nails dug in his shoulder, and she gripped tightly. He moved up, entering her tight depths. It felt good being completely possessed
“You'd better have a bloody good reason for wakening me at 4 am,” Ruben growled into his phone. He sat up, rubbing his eyes. Lisa stirred next to him. “WHAT!” He shouted so loudly that Lisa assumed there was an earthquake or something. She sat up pulling the satin sheet around her body. “What happened?” His brow drew in a dark scowl. “Did Andrea tell you where she was going?” “No, why, what's wrong? Is she the trouble?” Lisa asked with concern. “Big trouble. She will be punished!” With those words, Ruben jumped out of the bed and pulled on his track pants and tee. “Why, what has she done?” Lisa asked following him, pulling on her tee. “I got a call from one of our contacts in the vampires, yeah we have other contacts as well besides…,” his eyes flashed gold with anger. “Sebastian. She made a scene at their bar, Apparently, Sebastian and Andrea are in a relationship.”
