The Alpha in Darkness

“Out. Thaddeus needs more blood. Now tell me, and don’t lie to me.” I look down in his lap at the box that sits there. It is a pregnancy test, and my heart rate picks up just by the sight of it. “So, I guess I am correct in assuming that is why you were…

“Orion wouldn’t tell me if they are okay; he brought me here. Said I couldn’t go home, said that I am a vampire now. Pretty cool, don’t you think? I love the Vampire Diaries,” she says excitedly. Her attitude shocks me. So unfeeling, like she doesn’t know the people who raised her, like she has…

Orion pulls me back down on him. “She is fine, love; it won’t kill her,” he whispers just as Thaddeus walks back in. “I put her in Ryland’s car; you can take that to get home.” Bianca nods, and rushes outside. “You broke her neck?” I ask him angrily. “Be grateful I didn’t kill her;…

Ryland lifts his hips, pushing his pants down slightly, freeing himself, and I pull my fingers from her as he positions himself underneath her. She wriggles her hips and sinks onto him, letting him fill her. My fingers are slick with her juices, moving between her cheeks as I force them into her tight hole,…

Feeling myself heal as his blood races through me, healing my wounds, I feel my broken arm snap back into place with a loud crunch, making me whimper right at the moment I pass out. Evelyn I wake up to fingers trailing down my back, rolling over, I see Thaddeus lying beside me. I actually…

He looks at Thaddeus, who steps closer, pressing his chest into my back. Ryland looks at him warily, probably because he isn’t supposed to touch me, but he slept in the bed, and Thaddeus didn’t do anything. “Is she?” asks Ryland, looking at Thaddeus, wondering if I have lost the plot. “Vampire, I think. Orion…

“You’re human, Evelyn. Bearing one of our children could kill you.” “I don’t understand.” “When a human gets pregnant with their mate or mates, the child isn’t human.” “So?” I ask, not understanding. “One of us can’t knock you up. If you get pregnant, it won’t just be one of our kids; it will be…

He feels her guilt hitting him, along with his own. He never intended for April to kill Lana, along with Derrick. He wanted her to suffer, but he never imagined that Lana would also pay the price for what he implanted in her head. Not in a million years. “Go,” I tell him, and within…

Sitting up, I look at the screen. “You see it too?” He nods, and I take it from him to answer it. My heart skips a beat, and a lump forms in my throat as I answer it, popping it on loudspeaker. “Evie? Evie, you there?” Shock hits me. Thaddeus nudges me with his arm,…
