I knew if I couldn’t have Beth under me tonight, then I would have made sure she wouldn’t forget the true pleasure of A shadow-man’s lust, the monster in me would have brought her to the edge of bliss and with one simple word, touch, whisper, her body would tip over that blissful edge releasing the visible evidence from between her legs as it gushes down like a lake. -I put her head back down on my barreled chest, my hand gently stroking the top of her crown - vowing in my head that I will show no mercy to those who dare hurt her, their death will be as painful as the pain they inflicted on her at that moment “it’s time for us to sleep this time” I said, Beth didn’t argue back but caved in my request as she felt the exhaustion take over from that blissful edge I tipped her over with my mouth just minutes ago – I let Ryder’s music that turned into a sweet lullaby sing for a while longer – the thought of me loosing control of my powers almost frightened me, the thought of me being the one that could have hurt her- claiming the purity of her rosebud for myself would have no doubt devastated her – she wouldn’t want me to touch her again- as much as the beast in me satisfied her in a way that made me wishing I had more, we didn’t want to ruin her, not yet at least - I knew Beth was fully asleep but the light breathing sounds she made. No doubt she will dream sweet dreams of me I hope. – I quietly Peeled myself from out of her warm embrace even though I didn’t want to, not after the small taste of her innocence that consumed me with greed- I managed to slip out of bed – that’s when I saw it - the little black ball of a smokey wisp that slinked across the room, The Brave little Phantom came back, “No one will hurt what belongs to me, not even a small energy sucker like yourself” I quietly whispered and with one snap of my finger a red ball of fire zoomed straight for the shadow - my fire connected with it destroying it in an instant, I grabbed Ryder from the nightstand that sat next to Beth and slipped him next to her under the covers. “You better do your damn job and make sure you keep her safe from all harm while I’m away, if you don’t, I’ll make sure I’ll use your conduit to make a campfire out of you and send your soul back to whatever level of hell it came from,” I told the doll, but he just winked back at me. no doll have I ever made gave me the chills, except for this one – something isn’t quite right about him, and I can’t put my finger on it, and yet, part of me trusts him with her- Both are going to be a problem and a hazard to my life.
I finally opened the bedroom door releasing the red mists that sealed the entire entry way, My attention turned to Henry who was leaning against the wall that was directly across the bedroom - Sulking like he was the one hurt.
“You better not have touched my little sister!” I hissed jumping to my feet.
My eyes rolled in the back of my head, I wanted to tease how his sister tasted on my tongue as her legs were parted, but he didn’t need to know, that sweet nectar was for only me and mine alone to relish in. “Relax, I only did what you failed to do in the first place”
I pushed myself off the wall and took a step towards Logan, the tips of our noses almost touching in an icy kiss. I can smell Beth’s scent on his mouth- Anger flashed in my eyes as the thought of him touching her enraged me - I knew he couldn’t be trusted the moment I seen him step into this house and now I knew I was right all along.
I pointed back to Beth’s door while staring at Henry “what kind of cat shifter are you if you haven’t noticed the phantom that has been lurking around inside her bedroom?”
“Phantom?” I whispered to myself, he’s right, I didn’t even notice, let alone think that there was one stalking around, that must explain why Beth would wake up in the middle of the night screaming with terror. It was feeding on her.
Phantoms were known as little shadows that fed on misery and Beth had a lot of it.
“you’re a poor excuse of a Protector, some big brother you are” Logan scuffed “It’s sad when I’m the only one that had noticed it”
“Oh, please don’t tell me you went in there to be her knight in shining armor, you don’t have to hide it from me Dollmaker”
I lifted an eyebrow “What are you talking about?” I asked Henry.
“I can smell her on your breath” I hissed.
God, I wanted to reach out and grab him by the throat and ring the life out of this stupid cat.
“She is my responsibility and no concern of yours” Henry said but he watched as Logans lips pulled into a grin- his cheek pressed against Henry’s and a cold shiver ran down his spine as he spoke with a dominating tone. “Correction cat, she was your responsibility, now she is mine and no longer any concern of yours, so I appreciate it if you watch how you talk about my property in front of me, Next time, it might be your life I take.” Logan said as he walked away leaving Henry in absolute silence to his new declaration.
There was a loud commotion that came from the kitchen followed by glass crashing - Gary goes in to see why his two best pack members are going at each other’s throats this early in the morning when he hadn’t had his first cup of coffee yet. Gary’s eyes were glued to Logan as he stood behind the black granite countertop center island holding a broken coffee pot in his hand. “What in the moon goddesses name happened in here?” Gary asked as he stared at Logan shaking the rest of the liquid out on the floor. I pointed down to Henry watching as he struggled to get up on his feet “He had it coming old man” I shouted tossing the broken coffee pot into the trash can next to me. “No one talks to me like that, not even him” I calmly said. I was at complete shock, but I shouldn’t be surprised really – for as long as I known Logan over this last year, He’s always had been a mystery to me with an unchecked temper – must be an under
Ever since Beth had arrived at the shadow-core packhouse - she has gotten my boys riled up -it’s not hurt fault. It’s the monster who made her this way. I also wanted to Protect her, but I think logan is the better fit out of us two, you know for being a hundred and twenty years older than me - he is still limber and more spry then I am - I maybe half vampire, but my wolf was just as tired as the day we lost my mate penny some time back. The Doorbell Rings. I silently thanked the moon goddess for this little intermission between logan and Henry. Goddess knows I needed it. “You Two know the Rules, no killing one another without a witness” I said turning around and walking to the living room. “I’ll be back” “This is your fault” Henry said as it was just the two of them left. “How is it my fault? you have no one to blame but yourself” I put my hand up ending the conversation between me and Logan but
It was after 8 A.M when I finally reached the corner of the local hospital where Emma A.K.A Sunshine Works, I stayed hidden behind a concrete wall that separated me from the parking lot - my lips pulled into a small smile as my eyes found what they have been searching for - They found Emma- she quietly exited the large rotating Doors that led in and out of the main lobby - She was too focused looking down at her cellphone that she didn’t even notice me standing just an arm’s reach a way of touching the bottom strands of her Chestnut brown hair with my fingertips. I’m glad she didn’t notice me- if she only knew that I was so close- It would destroy her to know that I was right here. watching. like I’ve always done - To her I might as well be a shadow, A ghost from her past that needs to stay buried there. “We shouldn’t have come here”- Gazer the wolf said in the back of Boris’s head. “I know Gazer, but I needed to see her, I miss her and I know you miss her as w
“Sunshine!” A voice yelled out from the driver’s side of a black S.U.V. that spat up. My eyes squinted as if the sun bothered my sight. “Logan?” I asked myself wondering why in the hell is he driving like a mad man especially in a hospital parking lot this early in the morning. I turned to face my co-worker Mark who had no real expression on his face - he just quietly watched the giant S.U.V. stop in front of us as Logan and Henry jumped out in a hurry. “Woah, where’s the fire guys?” I asked jokingly. “Come on quick, Gary wants you back to the house” Henry said as he Grabbed Emma’s hand Rushing her behind me. “Oh, okay” I whispered following behind Henry till we reached the S.U.V “Hey! You can’t take her like that!” Mark said as he made his voice known. “Watch me” I said as I opened the back seat “Get in” I Demanded wanting Sunshine to obey me without question and without a fight. I turned to Face Henry who stood next to me and I
I Arrived at the shadow-core pack’s main driveway, I got a call from Gary Saithe telling me to get my ass over here, Gary is A Vampire -werewolf hybrid known as Alpha to his band of misfit rogues that he likes to keep as pets, his pack was no laughing stock nor to be taken lightly as all pack leaders feared him but Mostly Feared the rogues that he took in as his own members - they were a different sort of breed, not just one race. But a mixture of good and bad. - I killed the Roaring engine to my black sports car and stepped out of the driver’s side straightening out my matching black suit that fitted around me so well. A lingering scent hung in the passing breeze, I took a deep breath inhaling it - It smelled of wet fur and cat piss that saturated the air around me. I was trying to hide my distaste for the irritating scent, but it was no use- it made my stomach flip flop. “Prince Jax of the Vampire tribe” A raspy voice Echoed. I turned arou
This strange and cute young girl came up and hugged midnight, A.K.A Henry from behind giving him the warmest embrace that she could muster up from her tiny body as if she hadn’t seen him in years. “There you are little mouse, took you forever to get here” I said letting out a small chuckle as I held onto Beth’s arms tightly securing her in place behind my back. Jax couldn’t stop staring at the young female with the long curly blonde hair, The Thundering sound of a rapid heart strummed under her sternum as she must have felt him watching her every movement when she arrived, she broke out of Henrys space as if she was curious on who he was. “Hello” I said giving a polite bow, but she didn’t answer me. Rude, instead she immediately recoiled behind Henry’s back once more Using him as her shield again. Interesting. one thing is for sure - she’s been hurt, maybe by another vampire? But I don’t blame her she has every right to be afraid of us, Hell even me, we vampi
We all walked inside and entered the living room together, it was extremely large, clean, my eyes shifted to the same white pale walls that I’ve always come to known since I been a child growing up in this house – it Has never changed over the years and no matter how many times I’ve been in this house – it was the same damn reaction, Same thought that screamed in the back of my mind - welcome to your new prison. – no doubt Gary must have wanted his members on pack duties to make them feel at home – A safe place they can call their own. Even when they faced the notion they wouldn’t survive outside their old pack – but For the ones who clung onto some kind hope no matter how small it was – it was Gary who somehow managed to give them what they needed -A second chance- yet Sometimes those second chances are squandered away leading only to their death but those who kept reaching for the invisible branch that could save them-were saved – this was a special house even with
A loud snore pulled my attention to the only black single couch that was in the far corner of the room - I walked in front of the large sitting mass that looked dead by the way he was sitting up - his head tossed back and his arms stretched out gripping the edges of the black Leather backboard as he was holding onto for dear life, damn, how can he sleep sitting up like this?" Seth" I said as my foot kicked his. No movement. I flicked the top of his nose with the tips of my thumb and pointer finger "Seth!" I hissed in a louder tone. Still no movement. There was no shadow of a doubt that he’s drunk as hell and by judging the way his room looks, he must have drunk the entire liquor store that was nearby. I hovered myself over his lap standing directly above his grey sweatpants –my eyes dropped to the red fresh scars that knitted and snaked across his broad god-like naked chest – God, I wanted to reach down and touch t
