Stressing.
Cyrus
I hold her tight as I maneuver through the dense smoke. She has fallen asleep, holding on to me tightly with her face in my chest. Anubis is at peace for the first time since the ball. My skin no longer crawls with disgust because I know I didn’t do anything with another she-wolf. Now my mate knows also, and she sleeps soundly in my arms.
‘We have a visitor.’ Duron's voice rips through my head, putting my mind back into overdrive. Who could be visiting, and why would they not call first? Why didn’t he tell me who was visiting? I stopped walking and let out a frustrated breath. I know I’m close to my pack, and I don’t want anyone to see my littl
Andricia I’m pulled behind Cyrus and try to peek past him, but his large frame matches my movements, preventing me from seeing past. I huffed frustrated with him and grabbed his shirt, tugging it slightly. But he doesn’t respond to me, his body is tense and built like a brick wall. “What are you doing in my territory!” The growl that ripped out of his chest startled me, and I realized the frustration was caused by the anger bubbling off him. Whoever he is talking to has certainly pissed him off in the past. He growls low and Cerberus is alert in case there is danger. I peek around him, and he looks at me quickly, his face softens, but his eyes show concern. “Ah, there she is! We missed you at the meeting!” His voice slaps me in my face and my expression falls stone-cold. I lock eyes with Justin Primly, and Cerberus begs me to let her rip his face off. I only get a second of eye contact before I am shoved behind three more of my mates and Silas wraps me in his arms from behind. “No
Andricia “Do you smell that?” “Alpha said not to touch her!” “What he doesn’t know won’t hurt him.” The sound of skin sizzling fills the area. The putrid stench of burnt flesh immediately follows the sound. My heart pounds hard against my rib cage but the drug they used on me still has a hold on me. “Ah, you stupid bitch!” The voices stop as a door opens to my left and I try to turn my head, to open my eyes. I can feel the cold slab of metal beneath my back. Feels as if I am lying on a metal operating table. I'm not bound by anything however it doesn't matter because whatever is pumping through me has paralyzed me. “I told you to watch her not piss her off!” The deep voice is familiar and I roll it over in my mind which is still foggy trying to place a name and face with it. I drag myself through my muddled mind digging through memories that slowly pass me. “God damn it someone put her out!” The voice it’s Justin! Alpha Primly is a part of this and that thought alone has fire
HazeAndriciaI fell smacking my head on the rock and looked up to the attackers. Only this time I look past them and see Silas staked to the wall by his throat and wrists. I gasped and felt myself get pulled up to him. I sat on my knees looking at him as his blood-red eyes stared down at me.“Little bird.” His voice was quieter than a whisper.“Help us find you little bird.” His voice is so soothing, but I can hear the urgency in it. I was confused and tipped my head to the side, looking up at him.“I’m right here, Si?” My voice is full of confusion along with me, but my body is telling me to run. I stand up to touch him, but two sets of arms are wrapped around me.I fight against them as I am dragged through the woods. I try looking around and finding anything I can to use against them, but it is useless. I looked back and saw a cloaked figure standing in a misty area waiting for us. I fought, kicking them trying to do anything to get out of their grip. A needle was shoved into my n
Escape Attempt Andricia My blood runs ice-cold as I stare up at my near-lifeless mate staked to the wall. His blood leaks from his throat and wrists. The two goons are on the ground unconscious and I stand pulling out each stake in his wrists. I pull the one at his throat, and he falls into me. I lay him down gently and tore the flesh on my wrist open. My blood leaks down into his mouth. “Silas?” I shook him slightly. He doesn’t move, and his eyes look dull like he isn’t within himself. I see the goons getting up and recovering, and I scoot backward away from them, tears streaming down my face. “Si!” I screamed desperately, but no movement still. Little bird? He is quiet in my head once more. The goon’s eyes land on me and I still don’t see Silas moving at all. You need to run, little bird! Don’t let them catch you!
Chasing DreamsSilas“Mother fucker!” I smashed a hole in the brick where I was staked. All the alpha’s eyes snap at me startled. It’s been two weeks since she’s been missing, and he has had her this whole time. Her smell has faded outside, but now I know where he took her. My smart little bird led me straight to it. I get a big whiff of her and look at the ground. I can see her reliving her dream again. I’m not sure what they have her on, but it is really doing a number on her mind. The fact that she is reliving the same nightmare over and over is awful, and does she even know it actually happened? I am whisked away after her running through the woods. She looks over her shoulder a lot and I only see the alphas behind us, no one else. She stops and I step in front of her. She looks startled. I wrapped my arms around her, but she vanished into thin air. The alphas look at me with confused and curious expressions. Except Samson, who is staring dead behind me with glowing eyes. I see th
The Whole Damn Flame Andricia The curtains are pulled open and I grumble hiding under the comforter. Sleep seldom comes now but when it does I pray to the goddess to wake me. I drown in nightmares the same one replays even when I close my eyes to blink. Cerberus is missing I’m not sure what happened to her but I wish I had her to interrupt my thoughts and nightmares. I don’t even know the people in my dream. I don’t know the people I’m surrounded by daily. I’ve noticed are only women who are all vampire hybrids with the same bite on the wrist. I asked who their leader was and to speak to them but I barely got an answer. The only one that talks to me is Sienna. She is super nice. Not really she is kind of an ass but I like it. She is the only one that doesn’t tiptoe around me. She is honest and always puts me in my place. I still know nothing about her and every time I ask she leaves or changes the subject ignoring me. “Miss it is time for breakfast.” A soft nervous voice pulls me
Ruby-Red Andricia Two ruby-red eyes stare down at me. His face is porcelain white and chiseled to perfection. His black hair was a big contrast styled neatly with a perfect shine. A fancy deep violet shirt with intricate silver embroidery adorning it lays clad on his body with the top couple of buttons undone. A silver pendant hangs from his neck with red liquid inside. A loud demanding hum fills the room causing the air to almost vibrate coming from him as he continues petting my head to soothe me. My mouth is dry and tears have stopped falling. I try to scoot away quickly but he grips my bicep tightly. Pulling me to him effortlessly and swiping my hair to the side looking at my neck. What’s wrong with my neck? “Soon Little Flame.” All at once he releases me and leaves the room without me even getting a glimpse of him. His speed is uncanny and it’s almost as if he knew I was gonna try to run before I did. Who is he and where am I? I’m even more confused and have no sense of who I
Andricia “Little bird.” The sweet voice echoes through the woods from my attacker. I hit my head pretty hard and he kicked my ribs in pretty good. I’m not going down without a fight though. So I fled but his voice carried and goosebumps ran up my spine from the sound of his voice. “Run little bird.” I can hear my heartbeat in my ears and see a road as I approach. I cross it quickly and continue to run. My feet bleed from the sharp sticks and rocks on the forest floor. I don’t stop though until I see a building. I run for it and close the door falling down a flight of stairs in the darkness. My head smacks concrete hard at the bottom and my vision blurs not that I can see much anyway. Nails drag across my scalp as burning pain erupts where someone grabs a large handful of my hair and begins dragging me across the floor. I squirm feeling my hair tear from my scalp. I am thrown over their shoulder as I dangle fighting to stay conscious. My back slams into something hard and cold and I
