Gabriel took me to a small boutique, wanting me to try on dresses for the Red Moon Ball I'd almost forgotten about.

He made me wait in the curtained change room, while he and a female worker picked out things for me to try on.

I stifled a few giggles, hearing her attempt to flirt with him and his blatant shutdowns everytime she did.

Had to give her points though, she was persistent.

They waited for me while I tried on the last dress, a pile already set aside with Gabriel o

  • The First Mate    Eighty Eight

    Of the twelve clones that had been sent to Atlantia, I knew every single one of them. Each held a memory when I saw their faces, memories that almost made my rage unbearable. Among them was Jordon's parents, disguised as Theo and myself. I had to leave the... negotiations up to the others. Gwen, Dane and Theo were dealing with the last group, the one who'd had a Gabriel clone, though the man behind it I didn't recognise. Gabriel had sent Naomi and Oliver to see if they could help. I'd given them both runes instead of stones, that would only active when they were in the presence of a stone-holder. Something some of the Triad disagreed with, they believed more than the five of us should have access.I was still refusing. The stones put a target on anyone wearing them, but they refused to let it go.Thena and Henry had been at our door at dawn, Kaiden asleep in a carrier and Stacey barely awake.I set them up in the lounger

    They knew of him, knew he was one of my mates and they accepted that. But, seeing a Vampire was still an unsettling sight to Shifters. To anyone really. Gabriel gave them a kind smile, looking across the table and spotting the alcohol.His smile turned on Henry. I saw the Wolf rise for a moment at the fangs. Gabriel took my glass and moved to sit between Xavier and Henry, raising his glass to Henry. "How do you find it?" He smiled.Henry blinked, his tension faltering as his hand fell around his own glass.He raised it, taking a sip before answering. "It's pretty good." Henry said in a strained but polite voice. Abe was stretching dramatically behind us, grunting as he stepped, well more stumbled, to the table."What's all this, then?" He waved a finger across the table. Gabriel smirk, summoning another chair between him and Xavier, and two more glasses in front of them.Xav flicked his glass away. "I'm not apa

    I turned, my heart racing and raising my hand to stop it, but stopped.Gabriel sat in the sofa chair in the corner, his shadow dropped as he gave a disappointed sigh, my eyes fell to the arrow caught in hand.Stopping it just before his heart. Gabriel's eyes locked onto Abe's, his gaze cold and unforgiving. "Abe," he clipped. "I'd like it, just once, for you to not attack me in my own home." Abe sneered, but a twinkle flicked in his eyes looking at Gabriel as he rose. "Dracula, you're as slippery as a snake's hind legs. But I'll get you one of these days."Gabriel looked at the arrow for a moment, rising to his feet then the crossbow Abe lowered into a side holster where it hung under his cloak. Gabriel scoffed, shadowing the arrow into the quiver on Abe's other hip, and slipped his hands into his pocket with a bored expression. "Still using outdated weapons, I see." Abe shrugged, his mouth twisti

    The flickering candles that surrounded the pentagram I had drawn in the middle of my alter room cast an eerie dance of shadows on the walls. Gabriel, watched from the shadows, his presence a comforting hum in the back of my mind. Though annoyed about, I could feel his arms crossed and the disapproving scowl on his face, he had promised to stay hidden, to let me handle this reunion on my own. But I knew he was ready to intervene, to protect me from the man who had once sought to destroy himMy heart raced with anticipation as I began the incantation, the words echoing through the silence like a whispered secret. My body warmed, the room grew colder as a lash of wind snuffed out the candles, their grey smoke being pulled to the centre of the pentagram, gathering to form a doorway. The man I sought was no longer among the living, not because he was dead, but it was harder to summon a wizard from another plane of existence, especially the Death Plane.

    Dane handed me a glass of water, I took it, going to say thank you, only to feel and taste the dry and cracked feeling inside my mouth. I drank the water without stopping, feeling it rehydrate my mouth almost painfully.I licked my cracked lips, panting as I looked at my mates who watched me with concern. "Silvena said I'm back?" I accepted the new glass of water Dane gave me. They all scowled at me. Xavier spoke, leaning forward slightly and cupped my cheek. "Your anger....it changed Silvena for a moment." He seemed to scratch my cheek with his thumb.It felt dry and....Xavier pulled his hand away, a shimmering black scale pulling free. A slight sting sang on the area he'd taken it from on my cheek, the skin I touched incredibly soft, and sensitive. My eyes widened, feeling add bumped smoothness under my fingers, stopping when I saw my arm, my long sleeve torn. They were covered in.....Dragon scales. Silvena sighed,

    Alison looked at Dane and Xavier with a moment of relief. My rage flared.Like a fire having gasoline thrown on it.I screamed, my voice shaking the room and a hatred overtook me. "I'LLKILLYOU!"Gabriel shadowed in, his arms wrapping mine in lock across my chest before I could pull claws, or the gun, and shadowed me to the portal. Theo activated it as we approached. I snarled, fighting against Gabriel, trying to deactivate the home portal. He threw me into the command room, Lisa turning and shouting as he stood over me. "What the fuck?" Gabriel sidestepped as I tried to head for the ring. I snarled, hissing violently and swiped a clawed hand at him. He kicked my wrist, a slip of shadow dislodging my Portal Stone.It clattered across the room, Lisa threw herself between us, her back to me. "Wrong way!" Gabriel shouted as I lunged, knocki

    Rose The air was punched from my lungs, Theo spreading me sinfully and perfectly. I could feel every vein and pulsing ridge he had to offer as he forced himself to seat deep inside of me. He kissed me hard, my claws digging into his back so much, I could smell his blood mixing with mine - bu

    "It's almost time," the words were slurred, Mr. Stormbrooke's grey eyes, glazed with something more than bloodlust. He wiped his knuckles, bloody and split from my teeth and bone, stumbling slightly as he stepped back. I tried to move, a small cry leaving me as pain ricocheted like lighting, nea

    We didn't stay much longer, Xav left me ith Lisa for a few more minutes before he'd found me, picked me up - literally - and then marched to the car like he was staking a claim. Letting anyone who watched know. The drive home was quiet. One of his hands wrapped the wheel, the other resting on m

    Dane's tongue tangled with mine, his hands wrapping my thighs and he lifted me, my legs circling instantly around his waist. I found myself melting into him, a soft moan in my throat and my fingers slid through his thick curls, gripping him to me. "Were you a good girl for Xavier?" He rumbled
