JULIAN
I gently dropped the little she-wolf to her feet, stopping at the edge of the Midnight Sun pack borders. After what we had done earlier in the day, I felt more connected to her than I had ever felt before. I could feel the fear radiating off her as if it were my own and taste it at the very tip of my tongue. She didn't want to be here but we had officially run out of time. This had to be done and I had to be responsible for disclosing this news.
"You smell like me," I murmured, trying to get her mind off what we were about to do.
Except, she released a long deep groan that was one note short of being a growl, "Yeah, that means we won't even have to tell them. They will smell that we've..." Lilith allowed her sentence to trail off, her cheeks taking in a rosy hue under the silver moonlight that spilled through the lush canopy above.
I sighed in exasperation, "You need to relax becaus
JULIAN "You what?" Those words were shrieked, the voice reverberating off the walls that made up the cave we sat in. I still didn't understand why we had to meet in this ridiculous place but I wasn't about to question it. If I wanted this to play out in my favor then I needed to play the cards I had been dealt in the perfect order. I sighed deeply, slouching further into my seat with my eyes closed and my head tipped back. The entire time I had been focusing on Lilith's scent so the scent of the half-blood wouldn't tempt me. As per usual, I engrossed myself in thoughts of drowning in the divine Alpha Queen's blood — only, reality proved that her blood was putrid. "Lower your voice," I gritted, feeling my fangs snap out. My eyelids fluttered open and I found myself glaring at Tiana — the source of the shriek, "before I leave you with none." "Watch it bloodsucker," Zeph
LILITHMy hips swayed with the rhythm of the beat. We were back home and I was back at work. I would be lying if I said I didn't miss this; the feeling of absolute control to be whoever I wanted to be on stage. My fingers curled around the cool steel of the pole so I could pick myself into the air and do a carousel, arching my back so I could give the perfect view to my male spectators. A smirk kicked up the corners of my matte red-stained lips when I saw a dark-haired man tossing a few bills onto the platform.I was being paid to give them a show and that was exactly what I planned to do.Landing expertly on my platform heels, I sashayed my way over to the man that had thrown all that money onto the circular stage I was performing on. I gracefully dropped onto all fours, arching my back to give the men behind me a clear view of my pussy and ass through the thin white lace of my thong. My lilac locks were
LILITHMoments like these were rare to come by. I knew I wasn't human but my parents and I kept the facade that we were, because of that, we barely found the time to be what we actually were. This was the second time I had shifted into my wolf. The shift wasn't as painful as my first but it still felt like a saw cutting through my bones. It was worth it, though. Every bone breaking and reshaping, sprouting fur and a big nose, and growing a tail — it had all been worth it. I could hear the trotting of deer a few miles away, smell the scent of pine and sandalwood, feel the vibrations of the damp earth each time my fluffy ginger paws landed onto it. The ground felt alive beneath me, pulsing with waves of electricity. We felt nature the same way every supernatural did and because of that, we had to obey the laws of nature. My parents ran beside me, their wolves slightly bigger tha
JULIANI slammed the book that I had been going through shut. Tracking was something I enjoyed. It was the thrill of the hunt that had my spirits rising. The way I used my senses and abilities to track down my prey was what made the endeavor somewhat fun. My tracking abilities were what made this curse of a life barrable.This, sitting in front of achieves that was almost as old as time, bored me. However, I had to do my research to track down the witches of the past to track down their descendants. It was a tedious task so I was thankful for the help I was receiving from the current rogue Alpha.Whenever I thought of Victor, I was reminded that I had practically forced Lilith to be a part of his pack. After finding out the whole truth about what had happened to her, I realized I may have overstepped the line by doing that. Victor may not have been like Huxley. He may have had compassion, he may possess th
LILITH "You killed them?" I hissed, watching Julian's movements cautiously as he moved toward his desk with a crazed look sparkling in his eyes. "They challenged me," he shrugged, lowering himself into his seat in such a graceful manner that it made me wonder how he was such a brute within, "I gave them the chance to leave but they chose to challenge me. If I let them walk free after that, then I would be the weak one and the little respect that my kind does show me will not matter anymore. I'd have a civil war on my hands, one that I do not need at the moment. Making an example of them was necessary. I cannot have someone trying to dethrone me." "No one can dethrone you," I grimaced, folding my arms and propping all my weight onto one foot, "you're literally the chosen one." Julian ran his tongue over his top row of teeth, something I found him doing often, "And so are you," he finall
JULIAN "You're not okay," I seethed at the other end of my bedroom door. Lilith had locked me out. It had been fifteen hours, forty minutes, and twenty-six seconds since I was foolish enough to give in to my carnal desires by biting her. Every second that passed had my unbeating heart twisting in agony. The scent of death hung in the air, suffocating me. It hung around her. But the taste of her blood lingered at the very tip of my tongue. She wasn't like the half-blood. Lilith may have been a full-blooded werewolf but her blood tasted as sweet as her scent that sang to me. It was thick yet velvety, flowing down my throat like something completely forbidden and sinful. "I'm fine," she called, voice cutting through my thoughts. My lips peeled back into a snarl because she was lying to me. I could hear the pained whimpers and that smell. She honestly ex
JULIANI paced the length of the room in a frenzy I had never in my days of living thought I would find myself in. If I had a soul I would be able to feel it being ripped apart piece by piece as I watched Lilith thrash on the bed. She was well and truly past the point of no return — if there ever was on. Her skin was as hard as stone, the ropes tying her to the posts of the bed not even rubbing her skin raw."I've enchanted the ropes, she's not going to get loose," Penelope voiced, still seated in the chair, only, now she was playing with balls of fire, juggling them with graceful ease."That's not where my concern lies," I snapped, cringing into myself slightly when Lilith's guttural growl had the windows of my apartment vibrating with hunger-induced fury."Oh, I know," Penelope's lips curved into a sadistic smile and I knew she was getting off on this, "it must pain you to see her
LILITHI ran my tongue over my top row of teeth — more precisely, my gums. They felt different. There was a little bump above my canines which flattened whenever my fangs snapped out.I fucking had fangs!It was all still so surreal to me. I felt alone in my head for once, no beast yipping and pining for Julian. All the pining was purely coming from me this time around and I may not have been sharing my mind with a beast within me anymore, but it did feel as if my mind had grown. It was somehow larger, so large that it allowed me to concentrate on many things at once.I didn't enjoy the flames licking the back of my throat. It should have disgusted me that I had consumed so many bags of human blood but it didn't. In fact, I craved to have more of it. The little voice in my head reminding me how repulsive blood should have been to me was well and truly smothered by my insatiable thirs
