ANGUS POVI could smell him, I knew he was following me and I knew the moment he abandoned me, shifted and went back to the pack. I am not as stupid as he thinks of course I can smell the vamps and the king. I know she can never truly be mine anymore, she can never love me which is what I wanted, so I don't care anymore. I did a little more research in the back of the book under the heading for the other decent or species section for mates.That vamp king actually stole Seraphina's heart and not just her wolfs, the mate bond is more for the wolf but when two different species are involved you have to take into account the human half not just the wolf. If the human half loves the same mate as her wolf that is the definition of a true soul mate. The other thing was in the subheading for vampires, when they mate they form what is called a mate blood bond which is much stronger then a normal mate bond. Its where they exchange blood during the mating process. He has some of

DOMINIC POV"Umm.. How long was I gone??" she whispersNow its my turn to hesitate, "Seraphina, you were gone for nearly a year and a half. I'm sorry we couldn't find you sooner."She pales and leans up against the counter I get up to my feet and was by her side within a second, I put my arm around her waist so she wouldn't fall to the floor."Dominic I have been gone for so long, how..""Shh.. Shh.. Its okay, they may be young but they understand." I says as I pull her into my chest she tenses just a little but then relaxes into my arms.I don't know why but she then pulls out of my arms and runs back upstairs to the bedroom. I turn to go after her when Nathaniel walks up to me and tugs on my hand, I bend down and face him as he says "Father let me go after mother please."I nod and allow him to follow Seraphina upstairs to the bedroom. I wait a little while and then follow him up the stairs as well, I get to the door and hear him ta

SERAPHINA POV He kisses me again pulling me close and slowly moving his hands down to the hem of my dress, as he lifts my dress over my head he steps back and turns on the shower. He moves to the side so I can get under the water while he undresses and then joins me under the water. Dominic picks up the shampoo and gently rubs it into my hair, he does this a couple of times until all the mud and dirt are out. He then picks up the shower sponge, puts some his shower gel on it and then used it to wash the rest of my body starting at my neck and finishing at my feet. It was so nice he followed the path of the sponge with his hand spreading sparks all over me, once I was clean I made him kneel down so I could wash the mud and dirt out of his hair. When his hair was clean he stood back up and gave me the shower sponge with some more of his shower gel on it. I started at his neck and worked my way down his body, doing what he did to me by running the sponge over the skin and then

DOMINIC POVOnce Seraphina asked me not to let her wake up alone, I made sure to have her in my arms every morning, afternoon, night or whenever it was that we managed to get some sleep. It has now been another month since I countered one of the claim marks and I can tell Seraphina is getting anxious, feeling incomplete without her wolf. I am just so worried about countering the Alpha's claim, if the one from a Beta was bad then the Alpha one is going to be ten times worse. I think I need to talk to Doc Emily, so I leave Seraphina in the back garden playing with Scarlett and Charlotte and go to find Doc Emily.It takes me a little while but I eventually find her reading a vampire medical book in Doc Erik's office. I knock on the door frame before speaking,"Doc? I need to talk to you?""Your Highness!" she says bowing her head in respect"Please Doc! I have told you when we are like this it is just Dominic or even Dom, we are friends and Your Highn

SERAPHINA POVAfter Dominic asked me to go out on a date tonight, we watched the kids play for a bit longer and then I excused myself to find something nice to wear. I haven't felt the tug on the blood bond with Sebastian since I was taken by Angus the first time and I didn't know how to turn it off so that Sebastian and Phoenix couldn't feel what I did. I sit on the bed and carefully open my end of the link and what I hear has me crying again."My Queen I am sorry! Please forgive me! It is me who is no longer worthy of you! If it is your wish and as it is King Dominic's right I will transfer to another clan far from here and work to be worthy of you again. My Queen! My friend! Good bye!""Sebastian?? No! Please not you too! Don't leave me too! I can't loose another person I care about."He didn't answer me, I slide off the bed collapsing to the floor trying to stop the sobs that are raking through my body. They had done it again, they h
