His Dark Obsession by Moonlight Muse

Zeina looks surprised as she turns to Ziahra, her eyes widening in shock.

Ziahra’s smile vanishes, realisation hitting her as my own eyes widen.

“No! Not me, I mean she’s not mine! Zedkiel’s, she’ s Zedkiel’s wife and mate.” Ziahra explains as I blush at Zeina’s assumption.

Zeina’s face becomes serious as she turns and looks at me. Her heart is racing as her eyes run over me, before she turns back to Ziahra.

“Zedkiel… How do you even know about him?” She asks her hoarsely.

Ziahra takes her skeletal hands in her own. “I volunteered to find him for Exodus. He wants him dead.”

Zeina looks around. We can hear the faint sound of shouting and bangs. “Where is he now?” She asks sharply.

“Facing Vadam Exodus, but don’t worry, Zedkiel is strong and will be able to handle him.” I say.

“Then let’s hurry.” Zeina says, as she takes the lead down the hallway. “A stake through the heart will end him.”

“Let’s go, I’m sorry for biting you Evangeline, but your blood has given me a burst of strength to keep going for a bit,” Ziahra says wryly as we both begin hurrying after Zeina.

“Well, I’m glad it was of use then,” I say lightly, as I break into a run.

My only worry is Zerachiel. What if he does something that puts Zedkiel in danger?

But Zedkiel is his host. Surely, he wouldn’t risk it..

I realise with a sinking heart that I’m going to have to do the right thing secretly. I’m going to have to break this curse myself, without telling Zedkiel the plan…

I wish I could share, get his reassurance that everything will be alright.

We promised to do this together… but now… I just hope he doesn’t feel hurt when I try to kill his Lycan.

Lycan… just the thought of killing someone else makes my stomach churn with unease, let alone Zerachiel, who I had come
