Here you go! Remember that all of those beautiful gems are about to expire. Remo definitely appreciates them.
GRANT I had no idea what to expect when we realized that the mindlink was a trap. We popped back to the hospital and rushed into the room. The scene had been a huge disaster. It looked like a warzone. There were broken machines, everything was thrown about, and there was blood smeared throughout the room. Athena, our amazing warrior wolf mate had fought for her life against two attackers and came out on top. Thank the Goddess that she was trained by Mama Faye and was a naturally gifted fighter. It made sense, knowing what Athena was. My brother and I felt like we failed her again. Had we been here then nothing like this would have happened. She would not have been harmed at all. Speaking of her being harmed, there was something that did not make sense. Nothing in the bond fluctuated. There had not been any signs of pain or fear, nothing to suggest that she was being attacked. Remo had also not been alerted. ‘Athena said that they had soundproofed the room so that the guards wouldn
ANGEL Athena pointed out a total of six people that she felt needed to be monitored because their reactions to what was being shared were suspicious. I made certain to share their faces with my mates after the pack meeting concluded. It seemed that my mates had also picked up on their reactions and promised that they would be watched. Sadly, we had no way to tell who all was either a part of this or willing to be. How many people were in this pack that were willing to betray it for the right price? How many people would destroy the peace that we had here? A part of me felt like this was all my fault. Josef sent Maxine here to learn everything she could about the pack and about me. Now, our pack was being threatened because of Josef’s obsession with me. While he was no longer here, he set the wheels in motion before he died. We had war a ‘It’s not your fault. Julio would’ve found out who you were even if Josef never found you. He still would’ve found out about the prophecy. Here’s
ATHENA Denton lived alone, but there was no telling if anyone else was there. That was precisely why we had to be quick and covert. We had everyone on standby just in case something went south. Hopefully, it would not, but we needed to be prepared. His house was in one of the outer subdivisions where many warriors lived. It was close to the barracks and training center. Luckily, it was dark outside. That was certainly a plus right now. Unfortunately, casting a cloak was not an ability that we had. However, our mates could manipulate the shadows to help cloak us. ‘Be safe, our warrior mate,’ Grant whispered through the open link between the three of us. ‘Definitely be safe or else we’ll just slaughter the fuckheads,’ Gabriel said with a smirk on his deliciously handsome face. ‘Same goes for you two as well.’ They kissed their marks and let the shadows take over. The door was locked, so a shadow went into the keyhole, effectively unlocking it. The door slowly swung open. We slipp
GRANTTonight brought a lot of new information to light and would take a moment to wrap my head around it all.First off, Athena was really fucking brutal. Nobody should fuck with her. Goddess, she was magnificent. There was something extremely sexy seeing her being an Avenging Angel like this. One thing that my wolf and I agreed on was that our mates were so fucking perfect.Secondly, Mama Faye and Athena had apparently both been warriors on the battlefield. It was really cool that they had known each other in that regard. Neither of them had given any of us the impression that they had known each other like that. It did not matter either way. I could definitely see warrior-like traits in them both though. Brutal was the both of them.Thirdly, it would appear that Athena had the ability to see inside of someone’s mind, according to Ghost. That was really cool. It was a damn good thing that I did not have anything to hide from my mate. My brother and I were open books for both of them.
ANGELHad I ever mentioned how epic my wolf was? Athena took charge and set things in motion that would give us the upper hand in all of this. I had to believe that we would all be okay in the end unless I wanted to break down yet again with fear of what could possibly lay ahead.Knowing that the Goddess Athena had created the blueprint of my Athena still blew my mind. She was a true warrior wolf. She had shared with me that this was the first life where she was able to have a family. There was only so much of life that one could live while fighting on the front lines. One thing that I knew with absolute certainty was that we would both appreciate each experience with our family and loved ones as they occurred. We would never take our lives for granted.“How’s it going?” I heard from behind me.I turned around and saw Jaxon. He was proudly supporting Sansa’s mark on his neck. Those two were absolutely perfect for each other. They certainly had a great future ahead of them. I would be f
GRANTNever had I thought that I would get to meet Sophia. Goddess, the resemblance between Angel and her was remarkable to witness side-by-side.There was such tenderness that she showed Angel, which only served to warm my heart. Paula was an amazing mother to Angel. Never once had she treated Angel any differently from Denny or Willow. Never once had she or Jesse made our girl feel like she was adopted. Angel was theirs from the moment that they first laid their eyes on her.It was great to witness how much Sophia loved Angel and vice versa. I knew that this was not the same as them living life together, but it was a blessing that I knew neither of them would take for granted.Knowing that the time to deal with Julio was drawing near had us all stressing out. My brother and I were attempting to keep our emotions in check because our mate did not need to feel what we felt.Gabriel and I were both terrified about the warning Sophia had given to her about her gut feeling that something
ANGELThe fact of the matter was that nobody could outrun their past indefinitely. At one point or another, it would appear in front of you like a charging bull inside of a china shop, threatening to destroy everything within its wake.I had always prided myself on my strength. It had been hounded into me that I could overcome anything just as long as I fought hard enough and continued fighting no matter what. The reality was that it was much easier said than done when the time came to put that plan into action.Betrayal – the word itself stung, slicing into me like a silver dagger, serrating everything it touched. How had I been so blind to not have seen the snake before it struck me and tossed me into the lion’s den as if I was nothing but a raw steak.Who would have known that dealing with my past would have me dealing with a devil that dressed in designer suits and wielded his authority like the Grim Reaper’s scythe, threatening to obliterate all that it contacted with?I had once
ANGELI was given a writing prompt in the fourth grade, which made an impact still felt today. It was a single sentence.Who are you?That should have been easy to answer, but it was not. I remember sitting back in my seat and thinking about what made me who I was.My birth mother had only been in my life for ten weeks. Sadly, I did not know anything about her. The story that I had been told was that a group of vampires had rounded up humans to be sold at a feeding room as portable juice boxes in a variety of flavors from O- to AB+ and everything in between. My mother was a she-wolf with a gift that concealed us as humans until it did not. I was still young enough to be passed off as human, but she was not. Feeding room vampires did not stoop so low as to consume wolf-shifter blood. Their thoughts, not mine.Thankfully, Luna Elle and Alpha Kade were undercover at that feeding room and saved me.I was brought back to the Nightshade pack and my parents immediately adopted me. They said
