Chapter 86: When You Mourned Me Pt. 2
Alastair:
When Merari expressed to me the difference of her appearance before, I didn’t realize how literal she was until that moment.
I could hardly contain myself as I watched in the distance, the young woman that I’d raised from a babe up, standing there with the tale of a grim story written in her eyes.
She was angry and rightfully so. I could tell that she was like a rare bird, waiting for one of us to make one move before she fluttered away never to be seen again.
“Val-”
“Vale,” she corrected me. Apparently, she didn’t want to live by that name anymore and I could do very little but respect it.
“Vale,” I quickly corrected m

Harlyn: I couldn’t believe it. She was alive…alive and I…I just could not seem to place this reality with logic. Valene, my vassal...my sister, she was alive. Every time I thought about it, my heart fluttered and my breath hitched in my throat. What…what was I to do with this information? Then another thought came to mind; why hadn’t she returned home? To the comfort of home. Surely, returning to our side would have been better than going at it alone out there amongst the danger of the ferals, and rogues. Right? “Maybe not for her,” said my wolf, Fera said softly in my ear. “She is different now, Harlyn.” I considered the words my counterpart whispered in my ear while I sat there at my vanity mirror, brushing at my now shortened hair when a knock gently sounded at my bedroom door. “Come in.” I looked up as the door opened and saw my father standing there in front of the doorway. “Daddy,” At first, I greeted him with a smile. Then I saw the concerned look on his face. I quickly

“Val!” My father exclaimed. I was so shocked at her candor that I was rendered speechless myself.She turned away from the Delta and approached Dad again. “I…will stay in the city for a few days, but I cannot stay here.”“Why?” asked my father. Or…I guess…our father?Valene’s expression changed. “I smell her…I’m not ready to be near Mum. Not right now.”“Honey, she’s not staying here,” said my father, and for some reason, that was when it finally clicked: the reason behind his story about him and my mother, the mention of a true mate.“That woman!" I asked in bewilderment. "She…she’s y

Aries:Was it true? Was she really my mate? No! It couldn’t be! But I felt it, so it couldn’t be a lie. Right?“Yes!” Bain growled with anticipation and excitement. My counterpart could hardly contain himself and it was at that moment that I realized that it had to be true. Though I imagined any virile male would have a hard time containing themselves in front of such a rare beauty, and yes, she was beautiful.There was a darkness about her, however. It was as if the years of her absence had changed her in ways that caused resentment. Death could do that to a person. The death of my parents left a mark of darkness within me that I knew would never be fully healed. Still, though, she carried it quite well.I remember her very well when she was a human. Her hair was never out of place but neat in its natural curl. There was a light in her. A uniformed innocence that I had never seen in another before. One that was quite alluring, if I am being honest with myself.Now, however, she w

She brushed past me without another word, and I fought with every ounce of my being not to yank her up by the arm and force her into seclusion so that we could hash it out. Something told me, however, that if I did, I’d only succeed in making things worse.I turned and watched her saunter away from me, my arms crossed in aggravation. “We’re not done here, little one.” She paused, turned only slightly, and looked at me. “Yes, we are, old man.” without another word, she did something that I had never seen before of an inhuman. Her body seemed to burst into a flight of shadow-like bats, and suddenly, she disappeared into the sky.“She is going to be a problem.” Bain seemed to realize this as he witnessed what I did.“A challenge she will be,” I agreed with my beastly counterpart.“Yes….why do I feel like you welcome the challenge?” When he said this, a grin played across my lips and gradually became wider. I was amused and a tad bit excited about the idea of forcing the little spitfire

Vale: I sat on the kitchen island, eating a bowl of Moose Track ice cream drenched in fudge. My sweet tooth had kicked into exceptionally high gear today, and I knew why. I hadn’t eaten a meal- a real meal for almost a day and a half. Trying to be a good girl was definitely not agreeing with me. With a small sigh, I dug into my bowl and took a large bite of my fudgy ice cream. Eyes closed, I savored the rich fudge when I started to get a splitting headache. “You alright in here?” I heard the resoundingly deep voice of my father ask me as I sat on the island counter trying to enjoy my sweet treat. “Brain freeze,” I murmured as I squeezed my eyes shut tightly as if that would help alleviate the pain that I was feeling. I took a deep breath after the pain subsided and just looked at my father, giving him a small smile before I returned to my steadily melting treat. “Those can suck.” “Yeah,” I replied to him. “They certainly can. In fact, I am almost certain that they always do.”

Alastair:I should have known that she would be late. Even the elusive vampire elder, Lucious Madris, had made an early appearance. His son, however, was, not so eager to make his presence known.“Alastair Wade!” Lucius Madris approached with the same charm and subtle deviousness that he’d carried through his eight and a half centuries of life. “It is always a pleasure.”“I’d say the same, but it usually depends on what kind of mood you’re in, Lucius.” To my reply, he found no offense and simply responded with a grin. He knew that I was right. “Right, you are, alpha," he confirmed and continued with further amusement. "I guess I can be hard to swallow at times. However, since Shadow Veil is the priority, I promise to be on my best behavior tonight. Or at least, I'll try.” “Hm,” I took his word with a grain of salt and a raised brow. I’d always have to make a mental note to keep an eye on him. “Your son,” I shifted the subject. “I take it, he will not be gracing us with his presence

Harylyn's eyes were bloodshot and narrow. She could hardly put proper words together as she stumbled through her response. “As…as the blo...ody…v-vampire said. Well, e...except I can…I can hold my alcoh-my alcohol,” she slurred.“Apparently, you can’t," I hissed under my breath. So irritated by Harlyn's reckless behavior. Already, things were turning out to be a mess, and the meeting hadn’t even started yet. I simply could not afford to have two children acting out erratically.Toran’s son, Talon approached with impatience. “If it’s alright with you, alpha, I’ll take her upstairs so she can sleep it off.”“Thank you, Talon.” I knew it was as frustrating for him to see her that way as it was for me. When I handed her off, I noticed the flush in her cheeks. She seemed to be ashamed of her actions now when she noticed that Talon was standing before her. Harlyn suddenly became silent and docile. It was all of a sudden that Harlyn was seemingly more aware and apologetic of her actions.
Valene: Daughter of the Shadow Rogues Chapter 94: A Bitterness She Can't Place
Vale:After I left the house, I stood there and just looked at the large home for a moment. Not for sentimentality, though.They were about to talk, and it was bound to turn into an argument if I knew my mother and father. And I did. Then again, I did jump the gun in even assuming that my mother would stay long enough to talk. She was more the flighty type. Especially, where hard conversations were concerned.Hmm, mother and father. The idea of them being in the same vicinity… was off-putting. However, it seemed that this whole time, they were never too far away from each other. The amused expression that I had quickly turned into a frown as I thought about it. This whole time, one big-no huge secret that they both shared. My father, I couldn’t hold too much fault with since he didn’t even know that I existed. Or well... in the fleshly sense, at least.That woman, however. A completely. Different. Story.I walked away from the house, suddenly irritated. I wanted to feed. Bad.That’s
