Cassie waited, counting on her fingers, till one hour had passed. The place was dead silent. It was finally her time to make a move. She couldn't stay there anymore, she had to move, and to do that, Cassie finally had to accept the blood being given to her. She needed it if she was going to escape, so she chose not to acknowledge the fact that she might currently be a full vampire at the moment. All she knew was how powerful she felt, such strength that she didn't know was even possible for a man to contain. For days, unknown to her abductor, she had been working on the chains they had her held with. The day when the guard had first struggled with her to drink the blood, unknown to him, a pin had fallen from his pocket. Cassie had gotten hold of that immediately. Her father had been a locksmith, so she knew her way around. But even though she could free herself, she couldn't escape immediately, she was weak. That's why she had waited, till this moment that she was strong. Also, it wa
Pete and Alpha Luca were like brothers. Even though Pete wasn't close to the Alpha as Lord Romeo and Valentine were. Pete and Luca however, shared a bond. Before his mysterious death, Pete was Luca's beta and after he was confirmed dead, Ryan took his place. Pete wouldn't waste an opportunity to please his alpha. He was the ideal beta any Alpha could wish for and Luca was pleased with him. In the gruesome wars Alpha Luca fought and the deadly invasions he led, Pete was always beside him. Whenever Alpha Luca secretly raided a realm to take a soul, Pete covered his tracks even though the ruthless Luca always boasted of not needing any cover-up for he claims to be afraid of no one.Pete was like his shield and when he wanted to be at different places at the same time, Pete represented him and always carried out the assignments perfectly. Alpha Luca wasn't fond of trusting people. He trusted Pete but never told him and when Pete died, he wished he had told the beta that
After leaving Hera back at home, Alpha Luca drove straight to his office.Pacing from the right wall to the left wasn't helping matters, trying to concentrate on getting some of the packing paperwork done wasn't also helping matters.The anger coursing through his veins was making him so restless, that he couldn't even concentrate on anything at the moment.How the hell could Valentine have killed Pete? was all he could think about.Knowing how important Pete was to him, he wasn't expecting Lord Valentine could kill him.And he didn't even know up until he got the video. "How could he?" He screamed, his voice echoing all around the room.He sat for a while and suddenly leaped up."I better go see Romeo before I go crazy." He concluded, picking up his keys.He got to Romeo's realm and without greeting any of Romeo's guards, he dashed into his study."What did I say on knocking before entering?" Romeo asked with his head bowed over the files he was working on.He didn't even glance up
Hera sighed as she paced around in her room. Ever since Alpha Luca saw the video of how Pete died at Lord Valentine's hands, he hadn't been himself. What worried her more was the fact that he had relented on the search for Lord Valentine because of the video.She sighed again as she thought of something bad happening to Lord Valentine. Then, she knew she had to just tell her brother the truth, so he can take the search for Lord Valentine seriously."I'll just do it." She muttered to herself. Immediately, she walked to the exit of her room and headed to Alpha Luca's room.Alpha Luca was seated on a chair with a pen in his right hand when Hera walked in. He was lost in thought that he had no idea she had walked in until she got to his table and slammed her palm on his table. Then, he jerked back to life in shock. As he did, the pen in his hand fell to the floor."You scared me!" He exclaimed as he glared at her."Well, you zoned out. How could you not have known I entered with such loud
When Ryan arrived at her room with a heavy heart, she locked the doors and walked over to her bed, plumping down immediately. For a moment, she half expected Alpha Luca to come down and kick the doors, she waited, ready to start apologizing, but he didn't come. Ryan wondered what her punishment would be. She had just slapped Alpha Luca. Disrespecting your Alpha could earn you years in the cell, you could also get banished from the realm, or served other worst punishments, so she could only wonder which she would be given. Her plan had been simple, try to make Alpha Luca fall for her, and she had used Eric for that. She didn't see it turning out so horribly.How could she let her emotions get the judge her actions? She had asked herself this many times. She had acted without thinking, far from being the disciplined woman she was known for. Ryan knew she needed to do something and fast before Alpha Luca would take action.She rushed to the bathroom, she needed to wash the makeup she ha
"So, do you want to tell me how you ended up half-naked in the shape-shifter realm?" She glanced at him before focusing on the road. "The almighty Lord Valentine..." She shook her head, letting out a low whistle. "This will make an interesting headline.""Stop." He eyed her. "Also, I can't remember.""Are you kidding me?" She asked in disbelief. "What are they doing to you guys' memories? The same thing to Lord Romeo.""I don't know Hera. If I could remember, then I wouldn't say I can't.""Okay."They drove on in silence for a while, with Lord Valentine stealing glances at her every minute, but Hera didn't acknowledge this, if he didn't want to talk, she wouldn't make him talk. "How have you been?""I'm fine. Oh, I forgot to inform you. Luca now knows about Pete's murder.""What?" "You heard me well.""You told him?""Why would I do that? After you left, somehow someone hacked into your system and sent the video to Luca. He was really angry...I swear if you were around he would proba
Lord Romeo's men had gotten Information on where Mario was currently hiding in the human world and had in turn informed him of his current location.He looked at his wristwatch and turned it meticulously whilst thinking of the perfect plan to confront Mario.He laughed at his thought and immediately set out for the human world.The human worldLord Romeo winced at the loud sound of a truck passing by, he hissed and stamped his feet hard on his accelerator trying to prevent his range rover from colliding into the fast-approaching truck.He immediately maneuvered at the very last minute and collided with a rail on the left side of the road.He stepped out of his dented car and cursed loudly at the driver of the truck who didn't even stop to check if he was alive or not."So much for visiting the human world." He muttered adjusting his suit button.He always had one issue or the other to sort out any time he ventured into the human world, if it wasn't clearing off some women he had a nig
Cassie is still on the run after killing the man who wanted to assault her.She had run out of the stall that night with no hope of where to go but she kept running, having in mind that she was running from two different people now.Her previous abductors and the villagers might come after her when they find out what she had done.She was still filled in fear of what she had done to the man, never had she imagined she could do something like that.It all felt absurd to her as she kept replaying the scene in her head. The sudden surge of power she felt coursing through her enabled her to overpower him and pin him down right where he had pinned her.The image of how his veins throbbed against his neck and how it felt so inviting that she had to lean in and bite it open, how she had easily bitten him and also sucked him dry.She was almost going crazy with the thought. The thought of her being a monster.What scared her most was the thought of what he would have done to her had she not k
