Violets and Ash Chapter 140
Hael’s P.O.V.I had no choice but to face how thoroughly Violet flipped my world on it’s head when I began to leave campus with every intention on spying on this friendly lunch date of hers.The old me would’ve stormed in there, shoved a knife in Cartier’s chest, and hauled Violet out by her silky blonde hair, but I was trying this new thing where I cared about what she wanted and how my violent tendencies might make her feel.If there was one person capable of foiling my plans, it was my father. As I slid into my car, the engine purring like a feline woken from it’s slumber, his name flashed onto the screen.I cursed and jammed my finger into the answer button, biting back the mirth in my voice when I spoke.“Yes, father?”“My office, Hael. Now.” He said, then click. Well, shit. This wasn’t good, but when were things ever good with my father?Typing out a quick text to Cole, I put the car in reverse and sped out of the lot. His reply flashed onto the screen, only to be read by a rob
Violets and Ash Chapter 141
Violet’s P.O.V.I settled into the vintage diner booth, and painted a nonchalant smile on my face. The leather creaked under my bottom, and the metal rim of the table was cold to the touch.The mouthwatering scent of burgers, milkshakes, and other fried foods hung in the air, meshing with the light chatter that filled the place. An old jukebox sat at the very end of a curved bar, playing Lucy in the Sky With Diamonds by the Beatles.“So, what do you think?” Holden said, a tinge of nervousness filling the smooth baritone that was his voice. He pushed the golden strands of hair that had fallen onto his forehead out of his face.I blinked, flushing because I’d completely missed what he said prior to his question. My mind had been elsewhere, on a set of dark eyes that plagued most of my waking thoughts. Hael’s words were haunting me, swirling in my head on the whisper of a dark promise that had my blood singing.“It’s nice.” I beamed, assuming he was talking about the diner we’d just step

Violet’s P.O.V.My body had a visceral reaction to the possessive fire in his voice, and even through the phone, I could feel the flames lick their way up my spine.Why did I like that so much? Was I developing a praise kink or something?Feeling just a tad flustered, I decided I’d return the gesture with one thing I knew would snare Hael’s attention.“Yes, sir.” I purred, then quickly hung up the phone.Olive whistled low, rolling onto her stomach. “You two need to jump each other’s bones already. I swear, I’m getting second-hand horny from all the tension between you two, and before you call me a creep, I’m pretty sure Cole’s feeling the same way.”A burst of laughter exploded from my chest, and I hurled one of the throw pillows her way.“That makes you both creeps!”We waited until it got dark to head over to the Violet Lounge. By the time we arrived, the gravel lot was packed with vehicles.A wave of nausea hit me full force as the memories of this place came flooding back, height
Violets and Ash Chapter 143
Hael’s P.O.V. We were heading back from the warehouse when Violet called. Son of a… I almost hadn’t answered considering the name that popped onto the screen was Olive’s, but intuition had me hitting the little green button instead of the red. It whispered in a knowing voice that Violet had likely gotten herself into trouble again. Sure enough, I’d been right. The two of them followed the ambulance carrying Erik Chen to the hospital, where we’d all meet up in just half an hour. I had a death grip on the steering wheel the entire drive, focusing on the road to divert my attention from how thoroughly pissed off I was. Violet, my disobedient little mate, couldn’t keep herself out of harms way. Part of me understood her inability to fully accept the situation, which was a feat in and of itself because I was not the understanding type. Without the memories of her past, she grew up in a nice little bubble nestled in the mountains. Bullying had been the worst of what she’d dealt with.
Violets and Ash Chapter 144
Hael’s P.O.V.An ocean of dark promises churned in my eyes, acting as the perfect warning before I approached. She backed away; a frightened doe caught in the headlights of a predator. Only, it wasn’t her blood I wanted.“I’m going to punish you, Violet. Lets see if you can stop me.” I purred, my cock twitching from anticipation alone.I lunged just as her back hit the wall, snaring her wrists as she writhed and thrashed against me. She made an attempt to kick me, but all it did was allow me in between her legs and—fuck, it was like she wanted to be punished.Her barely covered pussy was flush against my cock, and all her squirming did was grind it against my length.Unable to take any more, I threw her over my shoulder. She plastered my back with punches, but they lacked the power necessary to garner a reaction. If anything, her little snarls and sounds of outrage only served to make me harder.I plopped down on the bed, forcing her over my lap. When she tried to crawl away, I grabbe

Hael’s P.O.V.Leaving Violet in my bedroom, I headed back to hers. Sliding into her bed, under her frilly pink comforter, without her, was a bit odd. It was necessary, though.I huddled under the covers, my ears peeled, and senses stretched as far as they could reach, for what could’ve easily been hours.When the window beside Violet’s closet opened, I was more than aware of it.A light breeze carried the scent of the intruder into the room. It was a familiar mixture of blood, sweat, and stale cigarettes. With my breathing slow and calculated, I continued to wait.Their footsteps were so quiet that I instantly knew whoever this was, was no stranger to breaking in unnoticed. Even their breathing was dampened, almost undetectable.This fucker was good, but I was better. The intruder’s presence loomed over the comforter, and I waited with calming breaths for the moment my gut told me to act. One second turned into two, and on the third, I was hit with a wave of fury that had me springin
Violets and Ash Chapter 146
Violet’s P.O.V.Hael had been serious about training me, a fact I’d only begun to regret when the asshole woke me up at four o’clock Friday morning.I’d stumbled bleary eyed, my hair a tangled mess on my head, into the gym in the basement of the estate.I didn’t even know this place had a basement.To make matters worse, he’d given me the news of what happened to Killer after spending another night with Cole. Luckily, I hadn’t yet eaten breakfast, so I wasn’t at risk of throwing anything up.Killer was dead, succumbing to the torture Cole had put him through. He hadn’t given us any more information, which Hael seemed to believe meant one thing. Whoever this Nic was, he terrified Killer enough to make him endure hours of agonizing torture.That wasn’t at all a good sign.Even now, I had to push the thought of what Cole did to the guy far from my mind. I might be slowly on my way to recovering my memories and the badass fighting skills I now had a slight grasp on, but I wasn’t sure I’d

Violet’s P.O.V.“….aaaaand done!” Delaney exclaimed, stepping back from the stool I sat on.Her hands were clasped behind her back and a grin with the intensity of a child opening presents on Christmas morning lit her face. I looked to Olive, who was reclining on the chaise lounge in her bedroom. She had her arms propped behind her head, the obsidian bikini top she wore on display.The spider web design was overlaid by a shimmery material that made her chest sparkle any time she moved. I didn’t at all miss the appreciative look Delaney had given her when she stepped out of the bathroom. When paired with her colored hair and dark eye make-up, it gave her an extra dose of intimidation that even her petite frame couldn’t ruin.Olive took one look at me, or rather, my chest, and sighed loudly.“I love women.”Delaney burst into a fit of musical laughter. “No, you love breasts.”Olive’s eyes slid from Delaney’s face to the pink bikini top that cradled her chest like it had been made for he
