Violets and Ash Chapter 95
Hael’s P.O.V.How can a she-wolf who can’t even shift be this much trouble? I asked myself this question no less than three hundred times within the last half hour. This was after I plotted Lorenzo Santino’s murder. Waiting for Olive to get here with Violet provided me with ample time to mull things over.Perhaps, I should just sick Violet on Lorenzo. After what she did to Blaze, jamming that knife into his head hard enough to snap the metal in two, I was sure she’d come up with something equally as creative.Why exactly did that thought fill me with pride?Fuck. What was this girl doing to me?Before I hoisted her into my arms and felt the heavy curve of her breasts against my chest, I had to mentally steel myself. Our agreement meant I had access to her body. I had no interest in her heart.Just as I turned back toward the house with a cooing Violet tucked away in my arms, Olive’s voice rang out.“Can I talk to you really quick?”She might’ve phrased it as a question but the note o
Violets and Ash Chapter 96
Hael’s P.O.V.I was definitely going to kill her when she was sober. My father would be oh so proud. It didn’t matter that the t-shirt I’d given her hid her pert ass, the sight of her bare thighs alone had my blood heating. She stumbled over to where I sat in an armchair beside my bed, her eyes glued to my bare chest. A small spark of amusement threatened to tug at my lips when she wiped the drool off her lower lip.I should’ve put on a fucking shirt.Not just that, but I should’ve put on a pair of pants thick enough to restrain my cock, which clearly hadn’t gotten the memo that as of right now Violet was off limits. The basketball shorts I had on, which I’d hastily snatched from the closet, did shit to cover up the effect she had on me. If anything, it highlighted it.She nearly fell over as she reached the chair but caught herself at the last minute. Her hands fell on either arm rest, and as she swayed back and forth, a lazy smile drifted across her angelic face.“Go to bed, Violet
Violets and Ash Chapter 97
Hael’s P.O.V.The second she tightened her grip on my hair, tugging until pain streaked across my scalp, I was a goner. Closer and closer she reeled me in, practically fucking swallowing me like I was more important than the air she needed to breathe.I’d never had someone react to me this way. Never. I was a killer, the son of an Alpha that ruled on fear. People wanted to get away from me, not come closer. Violet just kept coming back for more. An addict that couldn’t get enough, that needed hit after hit and still wasn’t satisfied.She began rocking her hips, whining into my mouth and shuddering with every pass she made as though the friction were burning her from the inside out. I nipped and sucked on her lips, her tongue, anything I could find, wanting more of the sweet fucking sounds she was making.She’s going to fucking kill me. There was a split second where she came up for air that gave me a chance to think clearly. I grabbed her hips once more, only this time intending to h
Violets and Ash Chapter 98
Violet’s P.O.V.The last twelve hours were a blur that plagued my mind in spurts of color, sensation, and sound. They were a picture show played on repeat, flitting by so quickly that they blurred into one image.It was the last memory in the slide that made it so easy to slip into oblivion, and to allow it’s freezing water’s to carry me away into the shadowy clutches of a nightmare.My body tingled with the echo of Hael’s touch; his taste still curled around my tongue. With it came an odd but familiar sensation pulsating between my legs. The more I focused on it, the more I remembered.Desire. Euphoria. Desperation.No, I couldn’t handle this. I didn’t want to know what happened, so I fell into the arms of unconsciousness and allowed it to whisk me away.It wasn’t until I heard the scream of a child and recognized it as my own that I realized this wasn’t a nightmare at all.It was a memory.Four very old walls surrounded me, the wallpaper peeled and speckled with nicotine stains. Des
Violets and Ash Chapter 99
Violet’s P.O.V.Hael lifted a shoulder in a half-shrug. If I had the strength, I would’ve jumped from the bed and tried to strangle the truth out of him. “You’ll figure it out. In the meantime, you have some explaining to do with Elijah. I’ll see you in a few days.”Wait, what?“A few days? Are you going somewhere?”Hael stopped a foot from his bedroom door. His eyes were blank as he said, “I’m leaving on business, but I’ll be back in a few days.”There was something about the vacant tone of his voice that felt off.“What kind of business?” I couldn’t stop myself from voicing the question out loud, and immediately regretted it when his face twisted into a deadly sneer.“Don’t get things twisted, princess. This agreement between us does not give you a right to my personal life. Don’t forget your place.”Each cold word stung me, burrowing beneath my skin no matter how vehemently I told myself they didn’t matter. Without another word or look in my direction, Hael left. Alone, sitting in
Violets and Ash Chapter 100
Violet’s P.O.V.“Have we met before?” I asked, repressing a shutter. Playing it dumb was the safest route I could think to take. At least until I found out what Sylvia wanted.“I’m well aware you remember this place, Violet. How much, I’m not sure. You wouldn’t look so shell-shocked if you didn’t, so let’s drop the pretenses. Shall we?”My shoulders slumped. Sylvia was right, and there was no point in trying to deny it any further. “Have you told Elijah?”Her eyes softened, running over my face with the whisper of a frown. “No, I haven’t. He and I are at a bit of an impasse when it comes to you and your memories. He wishes to protect you, and while I understand that, I believe it should be you to ultimately make the decision. There is much you don’t know, and I’ve never been a believer of that absurd phrase. What you don’t know most certainly can hurt you.”It was obvious she didn’t know how much I remembered. I had a feeling this conversation would’ve been going much differently if s
Violets and Ash Chapter 101
Violet’s P.O.V.“You better not have been kissing another goth.” She gasped dramatically, a smile toying at the corner’s of her lips. “Also, I said ‘I love you, you crazy bitch’. Get it right!”After laughing for several seconds, I wiped my eyes free of tears and grinned at her from across the living room. She hung off the edge of the loveseat, her hair draped over the pale leather as it spilled onto the floor.“There is something else…” I trailed off, suddenly a bit nervous. “You said to ask you this when I’m sober. It’s not my business, but are you attracted to women?”The lazy smirk that formed on Olive’s plum painted lips eased the tension coiling in the room.“Why? Are you asking me out?” She grinned, the expression lasting several seconds before being replaced by something serious. “You’ve done more for me than anyone else has. I think you’re well within your rights to ask a simple question. I just wish the answer was simple.”“Nothing’s simple.”“Isn’t that the damn truth.” She
Violets and Ash Chapter 102
Hael’s P.O.V.I stared down at the old lady’s corpse and sighed heavily.This job was supposed to be easy. Even my wolf was frustrated with this shit. We were supposed to have been long gone by now, heading back to Violet who I seemed to be hating less and less these days.That would have to change and fast. Until then, I had this mess to deal with. She wasn’t even my victim, which made things that much more complicated.The puddle of blood around her head and torso was still wet to the touch, which meant that whoever had taken her life had done so hours prior. From the single stab wound to her chest, I’d assume it was a silver blade that dealt the killing blow, but it was hard to be sure considering there were no obvious signs of a struggle.I had slipped in through a window around the back of the house during the dead of night. There wasn’t a single light in the neighborhood on, but even if there was, this didn’t seem like the kind of place where anyone would report suspicious beh
