Stella

Ever since hearing the moon goddess' sigh inside my head, I haven't been able to get rid of the anxiety in my chest.

Evan kisses my neck and bends up while I'm straddling his c**k. I'm horny, but more than that, I'm worried.

"What are you thinking about?" Evan asks. "You're looking so thoughtful when we should be making love."

"I know... I'm just-"

He kisses my neck again. Fire travels through my veins, and my heart pounds faster.

His lips are amazing.

Evan is incredible.

Ridiculously hot.

I look up towards the skies, inhaling. "I have a bad feeling in my gut about Lunaris and facing the demons tomorrow."

"We can always leave if we aren't strong enough..." Evan's deep voice makes shudders crawl up my spine, and he nibbles my skin. Hands roaming over my breasts to get their share. "Relax." "I can't relax!"

I pounce on him, and Evan's eyes flare when I land on his chest. He is down in the grass, c**k still buried inside me. It feels great when he slightly lifts his a*s, but I'm trying to be serious here. I park my palms over his sizeable pecs and glare down into his eyes. He playfully smiles in return.

"Look at you being all forward."

"Evan..." I warn, inhaling deeply.

"Stella..." Evan mimics my tone and chuckles. f**k, I love his gravelly voice and the way he touches me. He also looks great underneath me, ready to be ridden.

I swallow. "I'm serious."

"Me too," Evan says softly. "We should be mated before we fight any demons. Don't you agree?"

"Yes, but-"

He thrust into me. I sigh in return, feeling both our pleasure combined through the mate-bond. It's almost too much. I'm overwhelmed and moan when he lifts himself off the ground again.

"Let's mate first and worry about the demons later, okay?" Evan is stroking his paw over my pack, pressing me into his c**k and bouncing me slowly. "I want you to be mine... I can't wait anymore, angel. The mating ritual should be completed." My eyes roll into the back of my head. My fingers dig into Evan's muscles, and my p***y clenches around his c**k. Pleasure is plowing through me, and I can't fight it.

I'm so tight.

He is so big.

And it feels sooooo good.

"You're... You're right..." I'm breathless, unable to not move my hips and take him in and out, in and out. Oh-my-god. It feels so... Holy s**t. "We should... We should mark each other..."

Evan pulls me down. I'm suddenly spread over his broad chest, and he speaks in my ear. "Already on it, love... I will mark your neck the vampire way, and that mark will bind us forever." Forever.

I like the sound of that.

***

I touch the mark on my neck and smile shyly at Evan. I'm flushed and tingling all over after yesterday.

I can't believe I'm finally marked!

I have a mate!

And... One hell of a hot vampire boyfriend.

Happiness is bubbling within me when I take Evan's hand. Instant lightning travels through me, and his eyes twinkle; he felt it too.

The mate-bond is fantastic, and I can't hide my smile.

I want us to defeat the demons quickly so I can be with Evan. We have to replace Raphael's pack members and then bang-bang. Evan uses his powers, Raphael uses his, and I help. Together we should be able to defeat the demons.

I hope...

It's too late to think about negatives, though.

We are standing in a ring in the forest. Raphael takes Evan's other hand and then grabs mine with a soft smile.

"So, let's get to Lunaris, then, I guess?" Raphael says. "I'm ready for the teleport to happen."

"Yeah, I'm working on it..." Evan closes his eyes and furrows his eyebrows to intensely focus. "There is a lot of dark energies in Lunaris... But... Something is definitely wrong..." "Wrong?" I croak.

"Yeah... I felt a dark presence, but it disappeared... Kind of like it could feel me looking at it, you know?"

For some reason, the feeling in my gut grows worse. A warning bell is chiming inside my head, telling me not to go to Lunaris. But I know that I have to face the enemy. We have to go.

"We shouldn't overthink it and just teleport," I say, repressing the shudders creeping up my spine. "The demons are terrible, but they aren't going to grow weaker over time."

"No, they are becoming stronger," Raphael says in a severe tone. "If you don't kill them directly, they... They grow, you know? In both power and size, it's terrible. I hope you're ready for what we might face in Lunaris." I gulp. "We have practiced..."

"True," Evan says, handing me a smile while keeping his eyes closed. He squeezes my hand. "And while we don't know your power as a silver wolf yet, I won't leave your side. I will protect you with my life, Stella." My lips curl into a smile. "You're so sweet..."

Raphael rolls his eyes and sighs. "Can we just get the teleporting over with already? I think I puked a little in my mouth..."

"On it."

Evan squeezes my hand and the scenery changes in an instant. The forest disappears, and we enter the abyss. We stay there for a few seconds before it changes again, turning into Lunaris. What. The. Hell.

My eyes widen into saucers, and the anxiety in my gut spirals until even my heart is racing.

The city is barely recognizable.

I step away from Evan and look around. The sky is red and black, cast in a night that doesn't seem to be ending. Lightning travels over some force field around the city, and I hear screeching. Something is coming.

I experience shudders and turn to face Raphael. He is glaring out into the distance and growling.

"A demon is coming, and it's strong... So f*****g strong..."

Evan is taking in our surroundings while Raphael and I stand frozen. "Holy shit... This looks like something taken out of a horror movie. Everything is covered in cobwebs, and I don't see anyone-" THAT'S BECAUSE THEY ARE DEAD!!!

We all turn our heads to the demonic voice, and I gasp upon seeing a giant spider shrinking every house. It's monstrous and gigantic, purple in color, and doesn't look normal.

Giant.

Slimy.

Demonic.

Its feet crush cars as it comes for us, and I scream in terror when it reaches out one of those purple arms to pierce through Raphael's chest.

His eyes widen in shock, and he coughs up blood, looking at me for one last time before his body slumps. The giant spider pierced him. Raphael is dead.

He didn't even last a second.

He just died.

In the blink of an eye, Raphael just... Disappeared.

Fear overwhelms me and keeps me rooted to the spot. I stare at the screeching spider and watch it eat Raphael like a snack. His blood is on the ground, along with some intestines.

I think I'm going to be sick...

"Stella?!" Evan shouts and pulls at my arm. "You can't stand there! We have to get away from here!"

I hear what he is saying, yet I stand there, staring at the massive spider as it finishes Raphael.

"STELLA!"

Evan pulls me forward and forces my legs to run. I'm in a total daze, yet I follow him.

YOU WON'T BE GETTING AWAY FROM ME!

The spider screeches, and the ground jumps and vibrates as it chases us across an empty street. Car alarms go off, and I hear the colossal creature destroy houses behind us. "I can't teleport!" Evan shouts. "F**k-f**k-f**k!"

"You can't teleport?!" I shout back and try to fight my tears. "What are we supposed to do then?!"

"s**t, I don't know! But magic is blocked here!"

"Blocked?!" I exclaim.

"Yes, I'm trying to use it! But I can't even reach the shadows... I never bonded with them to a hundred percent, and... I think that demon can keep me from connecting with them!" This is bad.

This is so f*****g bad.

I keep running over the asphalt, but the situation feels hopeless.

"Evan..." I squeeze his hand while we run past Ashley's worn-out house. My heart is in my throat. "Evan, I'm scared..."

"Don't be scared. We will make it out of here. Maybe we can somehow run out through the barrier-"

GOT YOU!!!

Evan is silenced by the spider piercing through him too. I scream when it happens because I feel his pain through the mate-bond. It only lasts a second until he is gone. Those eyes turn glazed.

The mate-bond breaks.

My heart shatters.

"No..." I mumble. "This can't be happening... We were... We were supposed to get away from here..."

The spider screeches, and I scream out into the night. Nothing can stop the incredible pain slicing through my chest. My mate is gone, and the world has screeched to a halt.
