Villa took off her hat and placed it on a log, then took a seat next to it "I never imagined I'd be working with both a wolf and a vampire""When we find a way to kill Vlad you can come hunt us all you want ok?" Clair said drinking from her tumbler.Villa licked her lips making Claire lift her eyebrows "You want some?""If I'm allowed""Wait!" Skyler said "What do you mean 'she can come hunt us' when we're done here?""Its in everyone's best interest to get Vlad down for the count, we all are in danger from him, well, maybe except you" Claire said."I'm planning to rip his throat out, he should see me as his enemy""Or maybe his countess""Never"Villa drank a sip of her whiskey first then took out her phone "Yes, you said Vlad is out?""Yes""How did you know?""Uh...""Lex, the one who told you is probably an enemy""It was Tina""Kill her""Phone back in five"Villa placed the phone only on her l

"When was the last time you went on a proper hunt?" Muraco asked Tala when they returned to camp."I never really hunted, normally""What do you mean?""I hunted humans before, but not elk""Humans hey?" Muraco said chuckling.When they arrived in Alaska his pack was already out hunting, now they all sat around a fire, Tala felt control over herself, naturally, her being in the presence of an Alpha. Could she say it felt like a dream come true? She always wanted to be in her father's pack.Of the five with him there where two females and three males, all three impressive, and one of them sat alone, not with a female himself.Tala didn't want to make mends here, her heart still told her Ray will return here to come get her... She looked at the loner, a dark grey pelt with yellow eyes, impressive to say the least, he wasn't the biggest there but sure seemed the most dangerous."His name is Ash, for obvious reasons" Muraco said seeing her eyes on

Annette was glad one of the other servants came to take Melany home, she was now following Vlad like a moth to a flame, partially stupefied at the fact that she's now a vampire, partially because she felt a will in her, compelling her to follow.They went down into the dungeon where the young man was shackled to a wall, Vlad wove his hand and his helpers left, now alone, Vlad didn't tell Annette to leave."Wake up" he said calmly and patted Hector on his cheek "I said awaken!" Vlad yelled as his hand delivered a harder strike.Hector woke but coughed, his larynx damaged from the choke and he couldn't heal up like vampires and werewolves, he glared at Vlad, only giving Annette a glance."Where is she?" The question came again."You know, what I'll tell you" Hector replied with a hoarse voice."Make no mistake, I do not wish to kill her, neither will I kill you, but if you don't tell me I'll reconsider my decision to spare you""Never!"Vlad bru

Villa came back to the group, the phonecall was one to her organization, and unfortunately no one but her could hear what is spoken."Helga has an island of her own, and getting there will be difficult" she said."Why?" Claire asked."Its somewhere deep in the pacific, we'll have to fly to South America and take a boat from there, but that part of the ocean is a mine field of ice, so it might either be our last trip, or a one way"Skyler swallowed "One way? Last trip?""Well sink if we hit some of those bigger icebergs and according to my organization there's no docking space on that island, its a classic castle built on rocks, so if the ice don't sink us the rocks will, and to make matters worse if we manage to safely make it to the island its almost guaranteed the boat will sink, a storm conjured by magic constantly rages there, they even called the island shipwreck rock, fuck knows what Helga calls it"Skyler suddenly felt like she bit off more than

"Romance can in many cases be so overbearing, boring and predictable, you pick up a book and read, the novel said its focused on love..." Vlad said as they walked into the isles of the castle.Annette patiently followed him."Rachel was a stubborn woman, a human just like you were, and for some reason she had this hold on me, asif she had cursed me, she controlled me" Vlad said looking at her "I was a conqueror, I seeked only blood, I snuffed life out like a hound, death was my constant companion and death followed me where ever I went, yet, death never came for me, never chose me, laughed at my begs for the next life"Vlad stroked his chin "But then Rachel came to me, out of the depths of a bloodbath, hiding and waiting for me to pass close enough, so she could drive that stake through my chest...  Poor girl, she had the angle right, she had the opportunity" Vlad laughed "But she was just too slow! Just too damn slow! And stupid!" He turned to Annette who watche
