Into the Night Chapter 22
From Alassandra's POVOnce again, I felt as though I was falling into an empty void, a void unlike any other I'd ever experienced before. Even though I could see everything around me, there was no sound to be heard. The feeling left me feeling like I was alone in the world, with no one to talk to or share my thoughts with. It was a feeling of complete isolation and emptiness I had never experienced before. The only comfort I felt was that of the sweet taste of blood left in my mouth; it soothed the darkness and kept it calm, yet I still felt something else lurking just beyond the empty void that surrounded me.It felt like my day moved in slow motion; each class seemed to last longer than the last. There was nothing more I wanted to do than lie in bed with my newfound friend and enjoy his warm embrace. Leaving him that morning was the hardest decision I had made thus far. I felt a deeper connection to him than I did before. It was impossible to explain, even I didn't understand it, bu
Into the Night Chapter 23
From Alassandra's POVMy eyes were fixed on the phone in my hand, unsure of what I had just heard. My mouth fell open in shock, leaving me speechless. As far as I knew, my father was dead, and there was no way that was his voice. At least, that is what I thought until I heard it again and realized it was his voice."Alessandra, do you hear me, sweet girl?" my father asked, breaking me out of my thoughts. I looked at Ikaris in an effort to encourage me to answer, and he nodded."Yeah, but how are you..." I said as I closed my eyes, unable to finish the sentence I had started. I suddenly felt like that little girl once again, and suddenly, all the emotions of that night hit me like a freight train, and I felt like I had been transported back to that night when they left. After hearing my father's voice through the phone, I could feel the air around me turn cold as he spoke."Alassandra, please calm down," my father said to me while his voice was tinged with urgency and anger at the same
Into the Night Chapter 24
From Ikaris's POVAs soon as I stepped outside the room, I was inundated with questions. What I heard just a few minutes ago could not have been more unbelievable to me. For years, we were told that Alassandra's parents were dead, and for years, we were dedicated to bringing her here and destroying her. Yet, for some reason, hearing her father's voice was enough to make me question all of the things we had been taught up to this point. As time passed, I had already begun questioning things, but now I had even more reasons to do so, and after finding out I was mated to Alassandra, I was looking at things from a different angle.Taking a deep breath, I mind-linked Moriah and Argos. Although I was unsure of what I would say, I knew I needed to explain it."Argos, Moriah, I need to speak with you both. Meet me in the office in five," I said through the mind-link.The sound of Argos' voice flooded through the mind-link. "I'm a little busy right now, Brother. Can it wait?" he said."Pussy c
Into the Night Chapter 25
From Ikaris's POV Moriah's words had a profound effect on everyone in the room. As I glanced between all three of them, I could not help but notice their similarity. Despite the fact that I knew my father had cheated on my mother with a vampire, I never thought that I would ever come face-to-face with the mistress he had been having an affair with. Despite my desire to get to the bottom of those issues, now was not the time to do so. Clearing my throat, I turned my attention to Argos. "Let's deal with the pressing issues," I told him. Argos remained silent for a moment before speaking. "SPEAK!" Argos growled, crossing his arms in front of him. Moriah's mother stepped forward as she spoke. "To understand the truth, we need to go back to the beginning," she said as she stopped a mere few feet before us. "There was a time when all species lived in harmony. However, not everything is always as it seems. Behind the shadows, there were those who wanted more. They were known as the dark
Into the Night Chapter 26
From Alassandra's POV There was a sensation in my head that pounded; I had the feeling as if I had been hit with a sledgehammer. As I grunted in pain, I opened my eyes and blinked a few times before taking a closer look around at the environment around me. It was the first time I had seen this place. The walls were dark and dull. Not a single frame or hint of color could be seen on the walls. The floor was damp, and the air was stale. The only light was from a candle chandelier that hung on the ceiling. There were no other occupants in the room, just me and my pounding headache. I groaned in pain and looked up at the ceiling, trying to orient myself. When the sound of approaching footsteps could be heard, and after a few moments, Lillian walked in carrying a tray of food and water. "Oh, thank goddess, you're alright," Lillian said as she placed the tray on the small table beside where I lay and wrapped her arms around me. "What happened and where are we?" I asked. My memory of what
Into the Night Chapter 27
From Ikaris's POV"How the fuck did they know to look here?" I asked in surprise. Argos and I had taken measures to conceal the location of this place so that no one could find out what it was or what it was used for. For years, we kept our childhood home hidden from everyone. Although it was on campus grounds, my parents built the manor deep in the forest with the intent of being able to retreat here when they needed some space. In all these years, only one person had ever come close to finding it, Alassandra.I thought back to the very first time I saw her jogging in the forest. At that moment, she turned in the direction of the manor, and I knew I had to stop her; little did I know I would end up bringing her here for protection. Yet now we faced the danger of the elders' arrival. How they knew to come here was beyond me."Fuck if I know, but I know all the exits are sealed," Argos said, pacing back and forth as he pinched the brim of his nose. "On what fucken planet did I allow al
Into the Night Chapter 28
From Alassandra's POVThe whole thing seemed to happen in such a short amount of time. Within the span of an instant, I was in the mansion, and the next thing I knew, I was floating through what I could only describe as clouds, and the next thing I knew, I was a wolf. I had no idea what was taking control over me, but it was dark, and it wanted to feed.At the time, I did not know what all of this meant, but as time went on, I slowly began to recall my mother's words, "YOU CAN ALWAYS COME BACK TO THE LIGHT!"I don't know what she meant when she said that, but I felt as though that was the only thing that had the ability to calm me down. For a moment, I sat and listened to what Yadhira was saying when she was talking about me. However, after a while, I could feel the darkness within me beginning to rise, and that darkness had its eyes set on Ikaris as its target. I found that the more I became tempted to feed on him, the worse it got as I ignored it."Come to me," I called to him. The
Into the Night Chapter 29
From Alassandra's POV"NO!" my father yelled, an expression of concern filling his voice. After lowering my hands to my side, I stared at him for a brief period of time before I spoke to him."I don't understand. What is the problem? I was under the impression that you wanted what I had taken from you." I said with mockery."It is true that you have stolen what is ours. However, it is not our intention to fight with you," my father replied."Oh, really, you could have fucken fooled us?" Ikaris growled as he stepped toward me."Stay out of this wolf!" echoed my mother's response as she stepped towards my father and gripped his forearm in an act of protection. "Not here," she said, pulling my father back.My head tilted to the side, and my eyes narrowed for a moment as I squinted before taking a step forward, only to hear both of my parents gasp in horror and step back in surprise. The only expression on their faces was one of fear.A sadistic laugh escaped my lips as I turned my back o
