More and more rushed until I had more than twenty jumping on me and pushing me down. Their hands tried to rip me apart in any way they could. I fought, punched and kicked to stab and send out spears but with five falling, more jumped in. They were just too many and I was soon held from every direction as one came to hold my head ready to snap my neck apart.My eyes closed, wishing them all dead, as many as I could and I felt the bodies drop so fast it was as if they were never there. My body staggered, feeling myself weak to my knees. I thought I would fall, swaying with a loud and hard throbbing as if to kill me.I felt the warm and thick blood run down my nose and eyes, it serving as a warming but what my body did not understand was that I was there wholeheartedly. I was there knowing what was going to happen in the end.I was there to give my soul away, as long as my people would be safe. I was ready to explode and take as many vampires as I could. My eyes opened, stumbling back a
Nothing could have stopped me.No one had to tell us as we sprung after them. They ran away like cowards, springing so fast all they left was cold air but we were after them. I could not stop, the only word in my head was to get my queen. I knew she was still alive. I could feel the pain, I could feel the exhaustion. It was to the point where I was afraid she would let go. I was afraid she would leave us. I could not lose her, I could not…It was not the time to think, pushing further but we were no match to the vampire’s speed. They were opening the gap very wide, eating away the miles back to their kingdom. We could not let them go, we could not let them enter their kingdom. The panic made me jump over, groaning with the miles eaten away. My wolf would never allow me to let her go and I wished for the very first time that I still had my cursed beast. He would have tore through the land as if it was nothing.I groaned harder, my wolf head lowering with the speed hitting the peak.I c
The pack was empty as we got back, like a ghost town— dark and quiet. The wind whistled as if laughing at us as we ran back with our tails tucked in between our legs. I just wanted to get to our room. I just wanted to get to our room because maybe just maybe she had freed herself and was just waiting for us. I had hope, the castle dark but I still had hope.My heart was bleeding and I did not even want to shift back into my person because I would really feel it then. I hated myself than I ever had before. My head hung low, the warriors behind me with them in silence but they all knew we had failed to get their queen back, that I had failed to get my mate back. I had failed Raven. After everything, I had failed her so greatly and she was probably screaming in pain at that point.She was probably hoping I was on my way to get her when I was not. She was probably going through hell and the reason she was even taken was because of me, because of us.Why had she come to fight though? Why
I walked through the door only to stop. Raven’s creature was floating there. She had been on my shoulder, why had she not come out of the castle? She stared out with large eyes and as her eyes fell on me, they went wider. A sound pulled from her, bouncing even faster with me too pissed for it. I just scooped her up and went on with my walk but she floated out of my hold and back to the door. I shook my head, walking away to the flying machine. I wiped away the blood from my eyebrow.I got out on the office floor to march to my office. Opening the door was like being punched in the face. The office was just clustered with nothing but her delicious scent. I thought I would be sick, felt as if I would fall where I was. My hands gripped on the handle harder before walking on. I could see two bags, she had packed. She had been ready to go. She would be safe in that very moment if the sick excuse of an alpha had not stepped in. My hand ran through my hair only to groan out loud. I wanted to
CONRI’S P.O.VMy knee bent and I knew that if I did not bow then my bone would tear out of my skin. I unwillingly went down with one knee, refusing to bend the other just as a light pore from the ground. It was a blinding light as my head bent, not because I wanted to but because of this great force that just sat on my neck, forcing it to bend. I finally understood what my people felt in my presence. It was not a nice feeling and I hated it. I wanted to roar and tear through whatever was making this happen. My heart drummed, not sure what was happening, my head bent but I could feel something.I heard the sound, knowing something had come out of the hole, a presence, more than one and my head bent even lower. I felt something I had never felt before. I felt such power it was overwhelming, power that was not supposed to exist. A thud was heard, and everything stopped all at once. The hole that had been there closed gradually with the ground back at peace again. The silence was too l
“You...linked.... to my daughter.” Words suddenly spilled out, me frowning but I already knew because I could see it. I could already see her in him. She looked just like him but in a washed up way. It was as if on her, the features were washed off, blended away while on him, Goddess, on him, he looked heavenly. He looked fierce and Godly. I could not find the word. He was three times my size and height but even then, he was magnificent. I was way inferior, swallowing with him staring at me from side to side, staring at all my corners and I was afraid he could see past the surface, deep into my soul. His head suddenly peaked to the side, staring behind me and I was dropped just like that. I hit with a thud, the pain exploding with me groaning. I stared up with clenched teeth as the creature picked up Logan next. “ She has bound you to her.” He said again, nothing said after with his head tipping to the side to stare at Brum. “ You too.” The creature sighed, dropping Logan with s
CONRI’S P.O.VWe had taken twenty steps at most and I felt as if the ground had began wobbling. Logan and Brum were behind me, all sticking close to me and not falling back. All that mattered was getting Raven.My eyes went wide, Raven’s father disappearing into thin air then the two creatures after him. I rushed to where they disappeared, scared that they had left us behind, not even wanting to comprehend what they had done to disappear but jumping right where they had walked through and I felt my stomach turn.My wolf was clawing from inside, not liking it. I felt as if my brain was floating in my head with my feet touching ground. I felt my stomach turn again, thinking I would vomit but I held it all in. My head turned, eyes taking in where we were and goddess, we were standing right before a gate. It was the largest gate I had ever seen, tall and glorious as if it had taken many years to build it. It was gold in color, walls extending from both sides of it and going over like a w
She was just a girl. She was just an innocent young girl with such a beautiful heart. Why would they be so cruel to her? I slowly pulled her from the pole, making sure I did not cause anymore damage. Her body slipped off, the pole left with her blood, some of it dried, seeing that she had been like that for days. I shifted, kneeling on the floor with her on my body. My head lowered, my forehead on hers, my lips going to hers with mine trembling more. I let the first two tears fall on her before drawing the rest back to swallow. Everything all around me fell silent. Everything seemed to freeze. I lowered her down, pulling back and slipping my hands away from her.My body straightened up, my eyes still on her. I sniffled, my head pulling away from her direction as my eyes closed only to open.I turned, staring back at the man who claimed he created her, claimed he gave her life. I stared at him for the longest time as he stared at the young girl who was lain on the floor. He seemed to
