The girls arrived in class and took their usual seats. Ann took it upon herself to send Deacon and Wynn text messages to make sure they are aware that Jessica is alive and well and in class.Ann also informed Jessica’s very worried parents, Juno and Jovita, and her own parents, that was also up to speed with everything that was going on.“Your father is still not back. He is searching for Eero,” Ann’s mother texted her back.‘Poor Eero. I wonder where he is,’ Ann thought and put her phone away.***News of Jessica being at varsity changed everyone’s plans and thirty minutes later Wynn, Deacon, Juno, Jovita, and Michael were in class.Deacon walked straight over to Jessica and grabbed her by her arm, pulling her out of her chair. “Come with me,” Deacon said.“Hey, you are hurting me!” Jessica protested.“Good morning class. I see everyone has decided to attend today,” Lestat said, walking into class and bringing Deacon to a halt. All the supernatural looked shocked.“I saw him die with
After class, that day, Deacon, Juno, and Jovita forced Jessica into a meeting at the higher council.“I have assignments to catch up on,” Jessica protested as they walked into the lycan throne room.“Where have you been this past week?” Deacon questioned.“Did Torvald hurt you?” Jovita questioned.“What did he do to you?” Juna questioned.“I don’t know,” Jessica answered, pointing at Deacon. “No, he did not,” Jessica answered, pointing at Jovita. “Nothing,” she answered, pointing at Juno. “The last thing I remember was Lestat dying. When I woke up this morning, I thought it was a dream but when Ann told me I was gone for a week, I realized it was not a dream.”“Why would Torvald abduct you only to return you after a week without a word?” Deacon questioned.“How should I know?” Jessica spat. “Can I go now?”“Not so fast,” Deacon stopped her from walking away.“Ondrink will join us shortly to perform the fated mate spell again so that you can claim me as your forever mate,” Deacon said,
Wynn walked into the lycan throne room and saw a few royals standing around. All Deacon’s brothers were there and Ondrink, whom he almost didn’t recognize.“Ondrink, I would have not known it is you if I did not know you many years ago,” Wynn greeted, looking at a young Ondrink that looked as young as everyone else.“Wynn,” Ondrink shook his hand. Ondrink’s hair was long, no longer grey but dark, and his native appearance appealing.“What happened to you?” Wynn questioned as the last time he saw Ondrink he was growing old to leave this life.“Prehistoric vampires,” Ondrink said.“I am confused,” Wynn said, looking at Deacon that was just as surprised as him.“Now that Wynn has arrived,” Ondrink said and looked over at Jessica, disappointed that they did not fate to one another again, “we shall begin.”Ondrink put his warbonnet, which was made out of snow-owl feathers, onto his head.“Let me geuss, you were hoping that Jessica and Wynn fate again?” Deacon chuckled. “Well, Wynn is fated
On their way out of the castle, Wynn explained to Deacon what transpired between Ami and himself and why they were unmated.“So, what now?” Deacon questioned.“Between Ami and me? Nothing. She is carrying Eero’s kid,” Wynn said.“And your feelings for her?” Deacon wondered.“Well, I have always had a soft spot for both of them, especially Ami. I should have rejected the moment we fated instead of jumping into bed with her. Our relationship will never be the same,” Wynn said, regretting his decisions.“There is something you should know,” Deacon said, remembering the contents of Lauturi’s letter.“What?” Wynn questioned.“Not here. The walls have ears,” Deacon said, and led Wynn out of the castle.They walked for a bit before Deacon explained. “A vampire can become a day walker by robbing a hunter or the offspring of a hunter; half-bloods included, of their heart and putting it where their own heart used to be.”“That is how Paris became a day walker?” Wynn questioned, not believing th
Paris looked at Ann and felt he was taking her for a fool. “What?” Ann asked. “You took him to the beach where we made love, Ann.” Paris said. “I did not,” Ann denied it. Paris sighed and shook his head. He walked towards the door to leave, but Ann grabbed him and forced a kiss on him. “What are you doing?” Paris questioned, holding her at arm’s length. “Drink my blood and you will see that I love you! It has always been only you!” Ann cried. “Then you shouldn’t have been so quick to belief Michael,” Paris said and sped off before Ann could get out another word. Paris wanted Ann so badly. He wanted to kiss her again and again, but he didn’t want to get hurt again and felt she was not honest with him. *** When Jessica left the dorm room to give Paris and Ann some space, Wynn picked her up and sped her over to the higher council against her will. “The two of you stay here until you kiss and makeup!” Wynn compelled them after quickly removing their shaman necklaces, leaving the
“You seem in a good mood,” Ami remarked when her mother, Queen Amirah, checked up on her.“I am,” Queen Amirah said with a smile and wondered if Ami could smell Wynn on her. ‘Hopefully not. I did shower,’ she thought and pulled up a chair.‘Perhaps she does not know that Eero is on his way,’ Ami thought and wondered where Eero was.‘Any news on Eero? You said he was on his way, hours ago,’ Ami mind linked Wynn, fearing that Eero will show up while her mother was around.‘He is at the council. Probably sleeping his drunk ass off,’ Wynn said.“Mom, I would like to take a bath,” Ami asked her mom to help her to the bathroom.After a bath, Queen Amirah helped Ami to blow out her hair and lend her an arm for support as they walked to the living room.“Someone had sex in here,” Ami remarked when she sat down on the sofa that Wynn and her mother had sex on.“You know how it goes. Supernatural has no respect,” Queen Amirah choked and walked over to the large windows to open a few.“Have Wynn
“Stella is dead,” Ami informed Eero after a long embrace, wondering how he would feel about it.“I know. I killed her,” Eero said, shocking Ami to the core.“You killed her?” Ami questioned, the blood draining from her face. Ami was shocked at how he said it as if Stella’s life did not matter, as if he would do it again.“I thought she killed you. I was mad with rage,” Eero explained himself, realizing that maybe he should not sound so cocky about killing Stella.“Marry me,” Eero asked, cupping her face before sinking to one knee. “Let’s bring this baby into the world, married.”“You know I am pregnant?” Ami asked, looking down at him.“Yes. Wynn told me,” Eero smiled up at her, anxiously waiting for a ‘yes’ from her.“Of course,” Ami said. Looking at Eero, she knew she loved him more than anyone in the world and did not understand her own heart at that moment.“I need time to think,” Ami said and stepped away from him.Eero stood up from the floor and grabbed her, pulling her in for
“Lycan or Vampire?” Jessica asked one Friday evening to Ann that was nose deep into her books.“Neither,” Ann said and continued to study.“Would you like to date a lycan or vampire?” Jessica tried again. “I have noticed a few attractive single men at the council.”“I heard that there are different species, so why only lycan or vampire?” Ann chuckled, raising her eyes from her books.“Ok. What species?” Jessica questioned.“Vampire,” Ann chuckled, “then I can stay young,” she added.“Ok, great. I know this just guy, but he is a hybrid,” Jessica said and walked over to Ann. “Come, we are going on a double date.”“Just because I chose does not mean I am interested in dating. I want to finish my studies without love, thank you very much,” Ann said and dropped her eyes back to her books.“Come on. It will be fun,” Jessica said and grabbed the book that Ann was busy with.“When was the last time you opened a book?” Ann questioned and took one of her other books and filled it open.“Every d
