~ Delaney's POV ~One minute, I was enjoying the evening with Rakel, spilling words I never thought I'd say to a guy, the next moment I was running for my life. I hated it, I hated being weak. At that moment, something in me wanted to be let out, I could feel it crawling at my inside for release. I don't know if it's my imagination, as I ran, I felt as if I were one with the wind. My footsteps were lighter, my speed, faster. The more I concentrated on it, I felt I could do a lot more. I felt stronger.However, my concentration broke when I bumped into someone. My heart skipped seeing the huge muscled with a thick cold face. He jerked me to him before I could run, then pressed a sharp blade to my side. “If you dare scream, you'll die, whore!”I clammed my mouth shut, It's not like I was planning on screaming, that would only distract Rakel. Recalling his panic gaze when he asked me to run made me bite my inner cheeks, he wasn't scared for himself but

~ Knox POV ~ To say I'm furious will be an understatement infact, my emotions are all over the place. One, I want to find that stepdad of hers and kill him with my bare hands. No, death will be too easy for him after what he has done to my Laney. I'll make sure he's passed to my people, they will feed and do whatever they want with him, without killing him. He will pray for death. Two, I anticipated that Rakel will mark her, but I never thought it would be sooner rather than later. The worse part is that she also marked him! And that annoying werewolf was rubbing it on my face. Jealousy isn't enough to decipher what I'm feeling right now.  I never thought that a day like this will come where an ancient vampire, like myself, will feel jealous. I just can't believe it. I felt like clawing out the mark on his neck, so we'll see what he would use to brag with. Nonetheless, I know Delaney wouldn't like that, so I left peacefully, pretending I wasn't affected

Delaney's POV ~ Knox teleported himself home after that. I laid my head on the window while thinking. ‘Am I doing the right thing? How will the meeting tomorrow go?’ In other, to calm the raging headache from my hangover, I moved to the kitchen to prepare the hangover tea I learned from Cassie.  Speaking of Cassie, she doesn't seem to be at home. She and Asher. I wonder how last night went for them or where they are now.  As I sipped my drink, I heard a meowing sound in the living room. On reaching there, I saw Mr. Toms lying on the couch. “Hey there, big guy. Where have you been?” he seems to have disappeared forever since Rakel showed up. Ambling to him, I patted his fur and sighed. “What should I do, Toms? Did I make the right decision?”  The next day, Cassie returned home without Asher. I raised my brow curiously, wondering what happened between them. I wanted to ask but dropped it for now. I have enough on my plate as it, s

I don't know what Knox meant by I'm going into heat, but I have a feeling it has something to do with what's happening to me now. All at once, all the werewolf males in the room began moving towards me, the vampire males rushing out of the house. I couldn't bring myself to figure out why, nor do I care. I didn't notice Asher going out. When did he even show up here? I thought he was with Cassie…Rakel paused halfway when he noted the wolves behind him. He growled at them, looking like he would shift at any moment. I would have been afraid of him if I wasn't in this state because he looked feral. The male wolves whimpered under their Alpha's gaze, turned, and left the room.Seeing that only Rakel and Knox were the only ones in the suite, I palmed my breast — moaning out loud at the jolt of electricity that zinged through my body. But it wasn't enough. I wanted them to a point of pain.  Rakel arrived at my side. His mouth slammed against mine an

“What?!!”I yelled after they told me about the heat thing. “You knew about this, yet you still marked me?”When no one answered, I scoffed in disbelief. “Is there any other thing you guys are hiding from me? The thing I should know?”They both averted their eyes from mine which made me suspicious. It's funny how two dominant males became mute under my gaze. Just the thought of experiencing another heat caused me to shudder. From the looks of it, it won't be long before I go through it again. Why won't they just mate with me and let go of their pride? The knowledge made me glare at them in anger.Knox decided to change the topic by saying, “You can't live here any more Delaney, you need to come with us.”I scoffed. “Why should I? It's like you're forgetting you both rejected me last night.”“That's not it…”“Then? Tell me what it is!” I spat. &l
