My body hums as I awaken the next morning. The air in the room is chilly as I feel the nakedness of my skin. However the warm bout of flesh that surrounds one of my sides from my mate makes that chill irrelevant. I snuggle into her hair as her scent hits my nose and my hand trails along her side. I fight to open my eyes as I just enjoy the moment. The tingles that rush through me from her are beautiful. It is a feeling that I will never grow tired of. As my hands swims up on her sider her moan catches my ear and I smirk into her hair. However as my hand ascends on her body the tingles disappear as a warm hand touches mine. My eyes flare open as my head lifts and I snatch my hand away. Looking up I make eye contact with Jefferson and I have to admit that I am happy to see the look that he is wearing on his face. As we exchange a look of what I would call disdain I sigh in relief as we give each other a nod. Nothing will ever happen between us. Julia moves in between us and we both tu

I take deep breaths as the silence in the room thickens as I wait for this other alpha to show up.It almost feels like everything is finally coming to close but I don't want to get too excited at the prospects of what could happen. I get worried as I look at Julia. Looking at my mate I have no idea how someone could be so willing to give up theirs. I know that that is exactly what I am asking them to do though. I just can't feel too bad about it because my life depends on it too. The air in the room shifts and I am suddenly on high alert. I have come to know the feeling of what happens when a black dragon travels through the ether into a room and I am prepared for it. Maximus sits higher in his chair and I know that he feels it too. Three figures pop up in the center of the room and I waste no time.Reaching down in speed I snatch one of my knives from the holding on my waist and send it sailing through the air as the figures materialize. Before the knife hits its mark I am across th

There is so much about this situation that bothers me. There are still too many questions unanswered and the morning isn't going the way that I had hoped at all. If anything, the only thing that has happened is that we have lost focus too many times. Here we all sit and we still don't have a solution to catching Slater. This is the goal because it is the only way that I can kill him. But what would having us all distracted solve? Also, who is to say that this is the only spy that he has made in this clan. I pace the room faster as I start to think. If we are distracted then that leaves him an opening. He sent in food and that made us think that he would target us through the cafeteria. “Everyone eats in the cafeteria right?” I ask aloud as I think. Several yes’s sound out around the room. I can see why that would be a logical choice. Eyeing the box though brings an idea to mind. I walk over to it and reopen it. Lifting one of the vials I uncap it and bring it to my nose. “What the

The room is silent after Avery leaves. Salvatore stands there lost as he looks in the direction that his mate has gone. A pang of sadness hits my chest as I feel for the guy. Seeing what he saw could not have been easy. With the way that she screamed I wouldn't want to see it. Julia has yet to let go of my arm as she looks at Morbius with tears in his eyes. Having walked through his soul I know that she has seen everything he has shown. Taking her with me we walk over to my brother as we embrace him.A throat clears and we all turn to look at Salvatore. The sadness in his eyes has not gone away but determination can also be seen there. Everyone in the room looks at him in pity now but he holds his head high as alpha. We can all see that he will get done what needs to be done. If not for us then for the sake of his mates. “We will follow your lead” Salvatore says as he addresses Morbius.My brother doesn't break the hold that he has on I and Julia as he takes a step forward. Everyone

I watch through the eyes of my human as there is so much commotion in the room. So many people move over our mate as the only thing that leaves her mouth are garbled noises. Changing his eyes I can see that our eggs still lie in her stomach. While it does provide us some comfort, the thought of losing her is more than I can take. Everyone freezes as our alpha enters the room with our female alpha in his arms. “Dr. Snow, you have had enough time to work with the vials. Please tell us that you have something, "he says. We can all see the sadness and the toll this is taking on him. “That's what this is! Shit everyone out now” She yells and immediately anyone who is not on a bed starts to leave the room. Maximus stands with his ate as Xander lays Tika onto an open bed. The doctor stands in place as she closes her eyes and I have had enough. What does this have to do with saving our mate?In a flash of an odd green light a man appears into the room and embraces the good doctor. She pats
