"Welcome, everyone." Marcus called out to the room, turning hushed whispers into silence. His suit was navy blue this time, which made his eyes seem brighter and more vibrant. This man was what most strived to be; attractive, charismatic, wealthy and powerful.
That's what's dangerous about the soul. No matter how beautiful you are on the outside, no matter what favors your appearance gains you, the soul can rot from the inside out.
Many of the murmurs were regarding Desmond Deville's sudden absence. I listened to each and every one, forcing myself to remain calm.
"As I'm sure you all have noticed, we are missing a certain table member." Marcus lifted an eyebrow towards the room full of witnesses. He turned to face where I stood in particular, and though his eyes were not on me, I couldn't help but feel a bit paranoid. "Desmond Deville was called back to his pack sometime early this morning. There is nothing to worry about, simply a pack misunderstanding turned i

The entire room erupted in chaos. People on all sides shouted angrily, screaming obscenities and threats. They called me a monster--a beast that needed to be put down. Their words bounced off me, but their acid-stained emotions burned and slashed at me. There were some who did not join in on the chaos, the golden-haired couple being two who remained quiet and stoic during this charade.While horrible things were said, and death threats were thrown like spit from their bared teeth. The guards that lingered around the room were on alert, emerging from their places hidden amongst the crowd. They came out one by one, blending in with the people around them.I was genuinely surprised when each guard came to the center of the room. They stood around the High Table and the section containing my family. I knew the High Table would be first priority in a situation like this, but I hadn't expected my family and I to be included.During the chaos, Nico Deville chose his mo

"They did it? They're safe?" I gasped, my hands covering my mouth as I gaped at Kade, my happiness was overrun with confusion. "Why were you feeling grief?""We lost a few of our men out there." He grimaced, "Typically Alec and I would visit the family ourselves to break the news, but Alec's not here, and home is far away.""I've done nothing but worry this entire time, and I can't take it anymore." I admitted with a sigh, "Now that we've held up our end, Zayne has no choice but to hold up his. I wouldn't be able to live with killing him, not when he's Tori's mate. You can rough him up a bit and hand him over to her though, I'm sure she'd enjoy that.""I wouldn't do that to her, not unless she approved." Kade promised with a small smile. I knew it went against his nature to leave a threat alive, but he couldn't go around picking off the High Table. I had already offed one member unintentionally, and I refused to let that number creep higher. "We will--"A

"Men like Marcus are always hiding something, always." Kade said, his voice not cruel and demeaning, but factual. "They have piles upon piles of skeletons in their closets. They might let you see a few, but they will never give their full hand."Apart from the muffled heavy metal music blasting from Ava's headphones, the inside of the sedan was silent. The purr of the engine as we coasted down the highway was the only thing to be heard.The emotions that sat within this small confined space, were beginning to give me a headache.Only Ava seemed completely at ease, so utterly joyful that she was like a Tylenol to my aching head. Her teenage ignorance and excitement for danger felt good, like a reprieve from the weight of everyone else's emotions.Tori and Zayne were so aware of each other that every shift, every exhale or sound that came from one had the other reacting.Zayne still had an ironclad grip on his emotions, but Tori was practically an op

"You can't, not yet." Kade hissed, wrapping his arm around my waist to fasten me against his torso. This was the first I had felt from him since he was taken, and now the bond between us was pulling me forward. I only stopped squirming when I noticed Tori's red face, and how she was currently backed up against Zayne Novak. The two of them were flattened against the house. I didn't miss how his arm was wrapped around his waist, his fingers just an inch above her shirt line. His other hand still rested over her mouth, an attempt to silence her when the guard had come out to investigate. Her heart sounded like a distant helicopter, mirroring the sound of Zayne's. "Are you alright?" I asked her, when both Kade and Zayne finally let us go. "I'm fine." She huffed under her breath, which was a good enough answer for me at the moment. "Guys, I got the window open." Ava's sudden outburst made me jump, and instinctively place a hand against my chest. Av

The only thing that kept me from erupting into a revenge fueled rage was the fact that we still needed to get Alec out of here.Once Tori removed all of the tubes, including the steady drip of sedatives that kept him comatose, his eyelashes had barely fluttered. It would be some time before he actually came to, but all that mattered was that he was finally home.Both Zayne and Kade supported Alec, draping on of his arms over their shoulders.As we readied to get the hell out of here, I couldn't help but stop and place my hand against Alec's face. He had thick stubble coating his chin and jaw, the same onyx color as his hair. As I trailed my fingers down his face, I could feel that wall holding back my emotions quiver."Alright, let's get out of here." I exhaled, pulling away from Alec with what I'm sure was a pained expression on my face.If I stayed here any longer, seeing the physical effects of what they had done to him, I wasn't sure there woul

"How are we supposed to come up with an escape plan an hour before our final meeting?" I hissed once we were all within the confines of our suite."Sweetheart, my parents and I have been mulling over escape plan's for at least a week now." Kade chuckled, crossing his muscular arms over his chest. "Ever since we found out the High Table wanted to meet you; we began planning. Garrett and Julian have been helping as well. I'm sure they've come up with something by now."Alec was draped across the sectional; the sporadic flutter of his eyelashes was the only sign that the sedative was beginning to wear off. All eyes snapped over to Alec when a husky mumble came from his lips. Tori was at his side in seconds, checking him over in a way she had done three times now.When I had ran away, Tori began an apprenticeship under her dad. The time she didn't spend looking for me was dedicated to nightly shifts at the hospital."It's wearing off faster, he should be luci

The entire room held its breath. Fear was a smog that thickened the air and rushed into my lungs like fumes of bleach. It stung and burned, nearly making me emit a nasty cough.You could feel the tearing and shattering of alliances, opinions being formed and beliefs being questioned.It wasn't every day the High Table took in a potential soul-eater. Some instinctual side of me told me to use my gift, to tear the life from Marcus before he could utter another order.Marcus's eyes held mine, ice blue and full of acknowledgement. There was something strange in his perfectly cultivated emotions, a sort of interest that bordered on gambling.The pieces clicked together in my mind, when ever so slightly, he tipped his head at me.'Your move', It said.A question stood out in my mind, one that made my stomach sink. None of us had thought of it before, least of all myself.That guard I had killed at the decrepit house; we had left him there.

"Well, that was an absolute fucking mess." Jaspar snorted, cocking an onyx eyebrow at me as he took a long drink from his glass. He seemed completely unbothered, more inconvenienced, if anything. It was then that I noticed we weren't alone. The little girl who had touched me bounced over to his side, placing a protective arm around his leg. She stared at me with hazel eyes, through hair the same color as Jaspar's. I gaped at her for a few moments, still sprawled out on the carpet until the world around me stopped shifting. "She did rather well for her first time, didn't she?" A feminine voice asked, cool and collected as she analyzed me. I pulled myself from the floor, finally noticing the woman who sat in the armchair. She wore a tight black dress, but looked professional with her short heels and crisp shoulder length cut. Her eyes were a warm shade of brown, despite the guarded look on her face. "Yes, she did." Jaspar nodded, agreein
