SKYLAR I regretted it as soon as the challenging words had left my mouth; he moved quickly, nearly as quickly as Prince Romeo does, and before I could even scream, he has pulled me down on the bed and is lying over me with one hand around my throat and the other over my mouth. As I struggle underneath him, Vlad moves his hips and legs, pushing them between mine before using his body weight to stop me from moving. Once Vlad had me mostly pinned to the bed, he removed his hand from over my mouth just to cover it with his in a hard and dominant kiss. When he pulls back from the kiss, he tightens his hand that little more around my throat. He then lifts his chest off of mine just enough to move his other hand between us. He picks up my amulet and then seems to hiss as he says, "This may protect you from the supernaturals here but guess what my little hacker, it doesn't protect you from ones like you and me and I know a few of my employees would love to know that they won't get thrown a

ROMEOAfter Nathaniel beat and knocked me out, I take a sharp breath in as I was pulled back to consciousness by a wave of power that swept out over the entire battlefield. I try to move and find that I can’t and my body is engulfed in pain and exhaustion due to the lack of blood now running through me.I then drift in and out of consciousness. I vaguely remember Archer and Devlin approaching me. Devlin then picks me up off the ground and throws me over his shoulder before throwing me into the back of the SUV. They were never gentle with anything that they did. I then drift in and out of consciousness again until the SUV comes to a sliding stop, throwing me into the back door.The next thing I remember is the wonderful taste of fresh female blood dripping into my mouth. My eyes snap open, blazing bright red as the taste of her sweet blood causes the start of bloodlust. I lock my eyes with the female as she is slightly leaning over me.I grab her wri

ROMEOI watch as Skylar runs towards the trees; I let out a breath I was holding when she wasn’t dragged back out and I get a tug on my link. I open it.“We have her, Your Highness… But we can’t get to you…” “It’s okay. Just get her out of here safely.” I then return my full attention back to Archer, who presses the button on his controller again, adding a little more of the serum into my system once more. Even though I had lowered the dose that comes out with the number of times he presses the button, he is going to overload it soon and it will flood me with the small amount that is left within the device around my neck.Archer whistles again and the small army around me attacks, I dodge the first one to lunge at me and then send my fist into the jaw of the next before hitting the next one in the stomach as the first one turns around and lunges at me one more.I fig

JULIAN I pace the main battle tent. I snap my head to the door flap as Phoenix, Sebastian and Mike walk in. I watch as they walk over to the map. Phoenix picks up one of the pens and, obviously receiving information from someone, marks a place on the map. I walk over and take a look. I smile and say, “That location is on the other side of the battlefield. Is that where Romeo and Skylar are?” “It is a possible location thanks to the tracker that Romeo hid in that collar device.” “Good, let's go then.” “No, we need to wait for the go-ahead.” “From who?” “Nathaniel.” “I’m going with you.” I suddenly had to grab my head as I felt someone trying to get in and they were using a lot of force. I open my mind and Nathaniel’s voice booms in my head, “YOU ARE NOT GOING.” “Yes, I am. They are my family. I have to protect them…” “Julian. You will be more of a distraction to the others than you will be a help…” “No, I can help.” “Julian, would you be able to leave either Skylar or Ri

SKYLARI whimper a little as he pulls back, breaking his kiss. We are both breathing heavily as I look into his eyes as he leans his forehead to mine, tears sting my eyes as I wonder what I had done wrong. He then closes his eyes for a moment before opening them and whispering.“Skyler, did they?“I see the worry in his eyes. I lift my head a little and shake it slowly as I whisper.“No. Prince Riley and the amulet Savannah gave me stopped them.” I feel as he relaxes under me as he sighs. He then lifts my hands to his lips, pressing his lips to them as he then whispers.“I want you, Skylar, but I don't want our first time... Your first time to be rushed and in the back of an SUV. I want to love you as you give me your virginity…” I feel that strangeness pulling at me, but as I look around us I realise that I didn't want to lose that part of myself to him in the backseat of a car l
