Tommy's POV "Rafe! Calm down!" I bellowed at my wolf, my voice hoarse from screaming to try and get my stubborn animal's attention; it appeared in vain; I was undoubtedly being shut out! I looked on in horror as Rafe pummelled Jason's face into the dirt around us; given the cocky grin on Jason's face, he was simply biding his time before he struck! And when he did, I knew devastation would follow! I knew Jason kept Archer under tight lock and key because of his anger issues! His ability to flip on a coin and go from 1-1000 in seconds was magnificent to watch, but being on the other end of that wrath would spell disaster for Rafe and I! I hoped our friendship meant more to them than Archer's bloodlust and need to kill! I was not the enemy! Despite what it looked like! My wolf was in control of my body, pinning Jason in the grass, landing blow upon blow on his face in an unprovoked attack. Excruciating pain soared through my body, stopping my reckless attack on my best mate a
Damien's POV "What the fuck is going on?" I fumed, pulling Red against my side protectively, just as a semi-shifted male hurtled towards us, teeth snapping menacingly. A smaller, darker wolf charged behind him, sinking its teeth into the half-human, stopping him from launching an assault on Red and I. My eyes widened in alarm as I watched the pair wrestle for the higher ground until they finally rolled out of sight. Locking eyes with my angel, checking her over quickly, our heads snapped in the direction the beasts had disappeared; a defeated wail penetrated the dim woods around us, bouncing off the trees aimlessly "We need to get out of here, Red!" I hissed, bringing my green hues to look at her, unsurprised by the challenge on her lips. "What's wrong? Scared of a few feral wolves?" She taunted. Usually, I would have found her tease amusing, but something was wrong; this wasn't just a simple training session- this looked like war! And we were in the middle of the battlefield
Abigail's POV "What are you looking at, Ace?" I sulked, spying him looking into the distance ominously. Narrowing my eyes through the woods. "When did it get misty?" I asked, confused by the sudden change in the air. When we arrived in the woods earlier, the madness that had seeped into the shadows was almost tangible, and Something about that excited me! Running my fingers through the purple mist that had descended over the thick grass, I smiled, observing it twist through my fingers like a fish caressing the current. I could feel the purple haze contaminating my skin with wickedness, unlocking my deep-rooted desires to welcome corruption and bath in glorious sin! Embracing it impulsively, I ran my hands over Damien's shoulders, standing behind him, my body pressed against him snugly. I leaned up on my tiptoes, pressing a kiss to the nape of his neck, grinning, hearing him groan approvingly. Trailing my fingers across his shoulders, down his strong arms, exploring the mascul
Ares's POV "Damien was right! Wolves are fucking annoying!" I admitted, wondering if he could hear and see what was going on, I couldn't sense him anywhere, yet I was in his human form, not that I would know what my form looked like. This was the closest I had ever gotten to freedom from the cage inside his mind. Damien was always the good soldier, never one to question his Daddy! Only recently had he decided to grow a pair of balls and stand up to his demented family... This sassy female before me had unknowingly freed me from a life of isolation simply by crossing Damien's path and melting his cold heart. Meeting her gave him the strength to find his voice and question all he knew, letting me have some independence, even trusting my judgement. I would be forever grateful for that alone, owing her more than I can ever repay! But I would start with my protection and loyalty! Although I couldn't deny that I wanted her! Something about her called to the darkness within me; it d
Damien's POV Ares had been given free rein of my body and, with it, the opportunity to act upon his deep yearning to mate and claim my ruby jewel as his own. The animal he was, wanted to mark her desperately and fill her fertile womb with as many pups as possible! Leaving no doubt that she belonged to us! When condemned to the void by whatever the fuck was lurking in the shadows of the woods, I found myself surrounded by never-ending nothingness, no familiar smells or flickers of light, just oblivion! Until I heard Ares call for me subconsciously- he needed me! And as much as it irked me to admit, I had grown used to his chatter the last few days and felt empty without him. Something in his tone screamed pain, dread and uncontrollable anger; I had thought wrongly that he wouldn't have held back if allowed to do as he liked with Red! Instead, he had respected both Red and me! I was beyond grateful and not embarrassed to say proud of him and our bond! For the first time ever,
Jason's POV With the pack and their bullshit behind us, I trailed through the woodland surrounding our pack house; Kayla snuggled in my arms, safeguarding her from those who had also filtered into the forest. Although, given Archer's 'Fuck with me and die!' vibe, no one had dared approach us as of yet! "Where are we going?" Kayla whispered calmly as we delved deeper into the gloomy forest. "You don't remember, baby?" I asked, raising a brow, the corner of my lip twisting into a smirk. "Our spot!" She gushed, making me smile at her, warmth spreading through my body seeing a smile split her pretty face; even when black bruises danced across her ivory cheek, she was unmistakably breathtaking! Stepping over the body of one of my pack members as if they were nothing more than a discarded branch, I looked down in amusement seeing his heart missing from his body! "Pitty, I liked him!" I grumbled briefly before stepping on something soft and squishy. Looking down to see my boo
Abigail's POV Had he sensed me? I froze, my hand gripping the green fuzz that coated the tree, watching tentatively as Jason wrapped some girl in his strong arms, embracing her as only lovers would! Her nails raked over his scalp, pulling his hair back and giving her better access to his neck, but something in his face changed; his eyes swam with the longing of his beast! A beast I found myself drawn to, even now when I had made promises to Damien, I felt that familiar pull to Jason and Archer that sent delicious warmth straight to my core. Watching Jason strip off had been torture, watching those enormous muscles in his shoulders move as he stripped off, his bulging arms tensing, ogling him shamefully; I felt the dampening between my thighs, my pussy betraying me again, reminding me that it had been over an hour since she had had any attention! Greedy bitch! I groaned inwardly! Even from my viewing point behind the trees that lined their little love nest, I could see how b
Author Note: Trigger warning- Consent/non-consent Unknown POV Abigail was as remarkable as I remembered, although I had forgotten how spirited my red-haired beauty was, how undeniably strong-willed and stubborn. Watching her sass the wolf the demon had charged to protect her, a smirk toyed at the corner of my lips. Disappearing into the shadows, no longer wanting to entertain the arrogant pricks' nonsense, I sighed, admitting that Damien had disappointed me! I had known his father for centuries, I had watched him fall with Lucifer and the others, and honestly, he fell short of the mark! I had thoroughly enjoyed the chaos and devastation his father and his cronies had unleashed on the world. I personally preferred to plant a seed and watch the corruption unravel as I watched from the sidelines, adding the occasional sprinkle of trauma, death and destruction to the delicious mix. This was what had brought me to the forest this evening; I had warned Alpha Maxwell not to get to
