DIMITRI'S POV"It is snowing like a motherfucker out there," the mutt mumbled against the window. I watched as he used the palm of his hand and wiped the mist from the glass. With my hands folded behind my back, I walked up and stood beside him, shoulder to shoulder. I watched as the blizzard left its mark on the land outside.It was still noon-time, but the sky above was dark and the clouds were thick and black, casting an even darker shadow over the fields and beyond. "Yes, it is. I must say this blizzard is even worse than what the human from the telly had promised." I continued to watch thick white snowflakes being battered as they whirled around in the hurricane-force winds. "Blizzard hardly seems an adequate enough word for what the world outside has become," I ridiculed. The mutt turned to look at me, "Can you not talk like that. You sound so fucking old," he complained."But I am old, young mutt. I am over a century years old," I deadpanned. I still had my eyes on the storm o
I waited patiently for the mutt to answer. He sighed and shuffled in his spot before he answered. "Very well then. Her name was Tashema, she was a werewolf from Jamaica, and she came and visited our pack with her dad who was the Alpha of their pack. She was beautiful, a very amazing soul. We talked the whole night, and we ended it with a kiss. It was the best kiss I ever had until I met my Hazel." Hazel's face went scarlet. She was so cute."Well. My first kiss was Elizabeth Bowes-Lyon, also known as the Queen mother." Gasps echoed all around me. "Yes, true story. She was 25 and I was 15. She was in a loveless marriage. One thing led to the next, and we began an illicit affair. When Queen Elizabeth the second was born, I thought she was mine, but I did not smell my DNA in her."It took everyone a minute to digest what I had revealed to them. Allen went next, then Duncan and Ushi. Gerard told us about making out with his 8th-grade math teacher. Gabrielle told us about Bob who also fin
Cassandra Lennox, that name sounded familiar but I just could not remember where I heard it before. None of us said a word, we just sipped on our drinks and listened to Carson speak."Cassandra, or Cassie as I called her, was a few years older than me. She was not only beautiful on the outside, but she had a heart of gold.""Cassandra, I remember her. She was the kindergarten teacher. Now I know why you were always finding excuses to hang around there," Zander smirked."I remember Miss Lennox, she had the most beautiful dark skin that I had ever seen and her eyes were like shooting stars, bright and beautiful," Cleo shared."When Zander's parents got killed by the rogue attack a couple of years ago and Zander went wild, Cassie and I got close. I was 16 and she was 20. I never thought she would ever find me attractive, but on a hot summer's night, we went to the streams. Things got really heated. She was not only my first true kiss, but she was also my first everything." A tear slipped
??? POVTick-tock, tick-tock. Zander lay awake in the twilight of his bedroom. The sounds of the clock ticking and Hazel's shallow breathing were the only melodies that kept him company. He could make out the shadowy silhouettes that the furniture rendered against the moonlight that peeked in through the windows. His green eyes sparkled brightly like two large fireflies; beautiful, but sad.Hazel woke twice more that night. She had the same nightmare as before. Zander needed to know why she was dreaming of Magnus and who this Harper was. Was she even real? Was she in danger? He vowed that when he got back he would find out. He mentally wrote it down on his everlasting list of significant things to do. Number one was to find Zoey. Zander craned his neck and sought the time on the antique Victorian clock. It was 3:30 am. Time for him and Dimitri to set out on their quest.He quietly slipped out of bed. He pulled on the thickest and warmest pants he could find in his closet; it was blac
ZANDER'S POV"Yes, I am certain. Besides, if I die...well, I mean die permanently, at least I would die a happy vampire. I would never forgive myself if I let you die a virgin." I heard the vampire tell Declan. Dimitri knew that it would take more than a car crash to kill him.Declan crawled to the front seat to help me out of the wrecked vehicle. With three bodies removed from the car, the weight of the transforming wolf and the vampire was too much for the jeep to hold steady. It tilted further to the edge. Declan and I grabbed the front of the car. We pulled on it, trying to drag it from the edge. A loud howl rang through the cold air, and we knew that Muffy was fully transformed. The heavy wolf caused the jeep to slide off the cliff. We tried with all their might to keep it from falling, but we failed. Isis was a bit shaken up from the crash but the old witch powered up, and she cast a visible magical rope made from light and air. She wrapped it around the car. "I won't be able t
??? POV"I think we should speed-run from here, " Zander said, and the other two supernaturals agreed. They zoomed the next couple of miles until they approached the top of the mountain. "There's nothing up here," Declan spun around in circles trying to see if he could identify a building, a cave... anything. "There's nothing here than snow and trees.""But I sense something... I sense great power coming from over there," Zander pointed to the centre of the peak. "My wolf is even picking up on hundreds of odd smells.""I detect it too," Dimitri conceded.They sniffed and tried to locate where the scent was coming from. "Over there, it's coming from over there," Zander pointed once again at the centre of the peak of the mountain."That's crazy, Alpha. There is nothing there. It's just a cliff," Declan sighed. But Zander walked up to the peak and stepped to the edge, and then he did something that stunned Dimitri and Declan... he jumped off the precipice."Alpha!" Declan shouted. He ra
??? POVGidian moved with stealth towards the glowing blood-red eyes. His steps were calculated; precise. He had to make sure he didn't scare the creature any more than it already was. He could detect the fear seeping from the animal's body. With every step Gidian took, the animal took a few strides backward."Easy does it Gidian, she's scared.""I know, but I can sense she's also feral... It's like she has been in wolf form for a long time now.""Yes, it seems that way. I can smell she is also now a rogue... I wonder what happened to her?" Zander was worried. "I don't know, but I think she will trust us better if we're in our human form," Gidian suggested.Gidian's body twisted unnaturally, the air was filled with the sounds of shattering bones, and the noises resemble those of crushed twigs. Within seconds a naked Zander was crouched on his hands and feet. He held his position as he made eye contact with the she-wolf."Priscilla," he whispered. Her ears stood up like antennas as she
DECLAN'S POVDimitri and I got lost around 20 times while we struggled to locate the bonfire Imogen mentioned the witches were having. Dimitri thought it would be an excellent place to pick up some pussy. After several hours, we eventually found it. The moon was high in the sky. "Ok, young bloke. You're going to march over there and propose one of those lovely ladies to go on a little stroll with you." Dimitri gestured to the group of girls; four witches and two humans, to be exact. "You have got this. Remember what I told you; be open, yet mysterious. Be funny without appearing as a clown and always compliment the ladies," Dimitri massaged my shoulders to boost my confidence. "Ok. Open... Funny and compliments," I repeated."This is it, Pup. Time to get that dick of yours sucked and fucked," he gave my shoulders a final squeeze. "Now go. It's time," he then nudged me forward. I almost fell on my face, but I recaptured my fortitude and forced my way towards the bonfire. My eyes imm
