Eight Years AgoDamian's POVI hate the ugly monster looking back at me in the mirror. His black beady eyes are a mixture of my own dark brown with the depth of the very hell living beneath us, yet it's my body, my face, that looks at me as he teases me with the image of myself in the reflective glass.They suck me in and chew me up only to keep me inside instead of spitting me out—my whirlwind of emotions circles around and around as I live inside this monster of my own body.An internal loop of the same shit, day in and day out.I'm trapped. Trapped in the darkness, Onyx allows me to live in. My only saving grace is the mere thought of escaping one day and ending the pair of us.I've long since had the inability to surface fully. My only option is to watch through the eyes that were once mine—watching people believe that he is me, hating his ability to mimic even the slightest mannerism to fool any innocent bystander. What have I become?Who have I become?The number of stolen chil
Theo's POV Leo and I hang back as Tabby and Lilith walk through the woods, discussing Tabby's time with a witch called Gretchen. Poor Tabby describes a gruesome life with the witch experimenting on her because of her visions. Damian wanted to harvest her gift. He wanted the gift of vision to use to his whim. Leo grits his teeth as Tabby describes the dark magic used to try and siphon her magic. The growl sitting at the base of his throat when she explains how painful it was sometimes makes me wonder how he hasn't killed Damian himself. I think over the times I've seen him near Damian. At how he's able to control the urge to be angry. His ability to be neutral in the face of the man who had hurt his mate, his girl. I don't know if I'll be able to be as Switzerland in the face of that man as he is. In the face of seeing everything he has done to Lilith and Khai, I don't know whether I will now be able to prevent myself from hurting him how he deserves. "Theo?" Lilith calls me.
Lilith's POVTabby and I work around one another in the kitchen, making food from the cooking book.We went for a curry with rice and a side of spiced potatoes and coconut bread.Luckily Calley was home when we arrived, so we had her help; otherwise, we might have struggled to decide on dishes, let alone start the prep for dinner.She finds some flatbread in the fridge and carefully cuts a small opening to shove coconut inside, then bastes it in garlic oil.She has Tabby dicing chicken for the curry, which looks disgusting.The meat is slimy as Tabby takes it out of the plastic bowl it lives in, and it slips through her fingers and into the side, leaving a small trail of blood in its wake as it splattered with a slapping sound on the countertop.I watch disgusted as she picks it up again to place it down on the wooden chopping board readying it for her knife.I hate to say the knife slices so quickly through the meat that it makes my stomach churn. The image of a girl, similar to Tabb
Six years agoDamian's POVI think the boy is her mate.It's in the way he looks at her, the way he hangs off of her every word, his inability to keep his hands off of her and the protective stance he takes over her, yet not anyone else.Onyx is becoming suspicious; watches Khai intensely. He is assessing his every move.And I’m sad to say Khai is fairing the bunkers more times than ever before.One wrong look, one wrong move, even sniffing the girl too closely, has Onyx in a tis of hatred for the boy.Khai was the son I chose for myself. The child I never had genetically, yet the boy I had adopted in a way that meant I had someone to pass my pack down to.Legally he is the heir, the successor to take over from me, yet here my wolf is destroying him.The boy has turned from the bubbly child I adopted to a quiet, subdued kid that jumps at the slightest sound.I hate watching his confidence dwindle before my eyes. Yet I cannot look away either.I could ignore all of this happening aro
Celeste's POVI mope around the house, neglecting my duties in the following days after that... mistake with Zeus.Neither he nor Theseus has been near nor by, and I'm starting to wonder whether it was just my overactive mind making things up to punish me in some way, shape or form.But then I look into the mirror again, seeing the nasty marks on my neck. The bright purple and green blotches that are evidence to the contrary that indeed. Zeus had forced me to sleep with him to punish Theseus.I wonder, though, if he thought about how he was punishing me.I trusted him.We had a good relationship, and I thought he was abiding by the agreement he had made many, many moons again, but he wasn't.I guess, maybe, he was waiting for a time to use me much as he does all of the other female goddesses that come and go.Perhaps it has something to do with the fact I have been so long-standing that temptation finally snapped his restraint.I have been the longest-standing goddess since the likes
Theo's POVDinner has passed, and it was magnificent, delightful even. My stomach is full of the beautiful goodness of curry, rice, potatoes and bread. Calley, Lilith and Tabby have all exceeded themselves, cooking up a feast of goodness, and we’ve all eaten in silence.The only sounds were the orgasmic eating sounds that were in unison between all of us.Even Angela couldn’t deny how excellent the food was, and she usually complained about everything.I’ve bid Leo and Tabby goodbye out in the yard where they are walking through the woods to find their friend who teleported them here, and now I want, no need, my mates.Grabbing hold of Lilith’s hand, I guide her upstairs, and I mind-link Khai to follow.He smirks—his internal dialogue mirror that of my own.Lilith’s smell has changed drastically today, and it’s tantalising.It was seeping out from her pores and into the air around us, turning me the hell on.Maybe it was the soft touches to my thighs in the kitchen as she ate, or per
Celeste's POVAs I walk, I watch my granddaughter's soul as we walk to the pool of combined souls, and I feel giddy.Wow, that is all I can't think of as I look at the perfectly blended souls. There isn’t a strand of their DNA that has knitted together in a perfect meld of colour.No rough edges and no incomplete bonding. No part of them that doesn’t match the other completely. And it makes me think, makes me look. The souls I just chose to put together have not combined in such a seamless way.Have I been producing wolves that are not entirely one hundred percent a match…. Could I have chosen Hati, the wrong counterpart? Is that it?Is that why he’s the way he is?Placing my granddaughter down, I pick up Leo’s son, taking him back over to the pool of wolves.I pry apart the souls, placing both back separately in the bowl.They stay still for a moment, floating close to one another yet not moving away.They seem to think over whether they want to find another or stay together, but t
Lilith’s POVSomething wakes me from my deep slumber. Dread is sitting in the pit of my stomach, which in turn is making my little girl move.You could say she was excited, but with how I feel, maybe she’s feeling just as much dread as I am.I sit from the mattress, looking back to see both Khai and Theo sleeping soundly on either side of me.What is that woke me?Sighing, I climb from the bed, grabbing the robe laid across the chair beside the bed.Swinging it around me, I cover my nakedness before tying it around my waist.Only then do I walk to the floor-length windows to look out and across the yard in wonder.It’s deep into the night, the move shining bright as it illuminates the yard, the trees and the distance.It’s beautiful outside, and I want to marvel at the sight before me, but the dread is all-consuming. Unwilling to let go of my very soul.I’m not sure how long I stand here at the window, but time seems to pass quickly, the moon moving through the sky, staring back at m
