sure you have your comments all in, I’m going to be closing it up tonight and
announcing the winner tomorrow
Oh
and another fun fact it’s release day!!
Dem:
what are we meant to be saying?
Jeffery:
I’m not sure, something to sell our story I believe
Dem:
humph
Jeffery:
*chuckles* that works.
Dem:
*eyes narrowed* how so?
Jeffery:
Well it’s basically how you were though the whole story, always grumbly and
resistant.
Dem: And
that’s bad?
Jeffery:
never said it was *kissed Dem hairy cheek* just that it’s what the story is
about
Dem: no
it isn’t. It’s about…. Ah…. Us finding each other
Jeffery:
there is that *he winked*
Dem:
*shaking his head, a smile on his lips* so tell the people what they need to
know then
Jeffery:
ok, so I’m a vampire and Dem here is a werewolf. Nothing all that exciting,
except that Dem’s Alpha is a bit…controlling.
Dem:
It’s not just mine, they’re all controlling. They kinda need to be
Jeffery:
*waved Dem’s words away with his hand* I don’t really care. I care about you
and that’s all, which was made difficult with your alphas stupid rules.
Also, Dem here likes a little
pain and submission with his sex, another of those stupid rules and therefore
he fought the mate pull and that was…
Dem:
*interrupting* fun
Jeffery:
*laughs, evil and sexual* yes it was *he learnt over, fingers around Dem’s
neck, pulling him closer, devouring his mouth*
Think
we lost them. Oh well, here’s an excerpt maybe it’ll help you decide *wink*
The moon tingled down Dem’s spine and the hair on his arms
and legs thickened, covering Dem in a layer of downy fur so heavy he wanted to
strip off his human skin to cool himself down.
Dem had been around the block enough
times to rein that bullshit in. It wouldn’t do him any good to shift on the
street. He’d get picked up by the pound and his alpha would have to come and
rescue him, which wasn’t a good way to start a moon phase.
Licks of anger already flickered across
his mind, making him feel stronger. They pointed shit out, ideas that weren’t
even real, turning them into threats.
If he was caught his alpha would
straighten him out. He’d end the night being used as the alpha’s plaything. A
task Dem shuddered at the thought of preforming.
The alpha had rules and punished a wolf
for slipping up. He’d be ten times more lethal if he knew Dem knowingly acted against the rules.
Dem sighed. He’d broken one of them
tonight by submitting to another. It wasn’t unreasonable for the alpha to
demand that no were submit to anyone but him. If it weren’t for his fucked up
brain, his need, it wouldn’t have
been an issue.
He was already in deep shit with the
alpha, as soon as the bastard got a whiff of him. Blood loss was the worst. The
fucker had bled him, which was where the punishment was going to come from.
Bottoming wasn’t submitting, but allowing blood to spill? Unforgivable.
His hackles rose and heat laced through
his mind. That fucker had gone too far by tasting him, and Dem wasn’t going to be
punished for it. Not without taking his own chunk of flesh out of the vampire
first.
He needed to prove he hadn’t taken it
lying down.
He needed to make sure the wanker knew he was top dog, that he hadn’t wanted
it.
His ears tingled as they shifted slightly,
allowing a whole heap of sounds in that he hadn’t heard a moment before. His
teeth elongated and his mouth became more sensitive, as did his nose.
He wasn’t going to be forced into the
ring without a taste of flesh, vampire flesh.
Dem stopped were the fucker had parked
and the scent shifted to include the sharp smell that came from a smooth car.
The toxic vapours of petrol filled Dem’s lungs and he followed it as he hurried
along, his nose leading the way.
He needed to bare his teeth at the
vampire. He needed to take out chunks of flesh, rip them from bone. That’s what
he craved. What his wolf side demanded as the moon hung low in the sky, singing
a lullaby of violence and mayhem. She may fool most people, but the moon was
one scary bitch. She had no problem using her allure to give people a sense of
security before breaking into their homes and ripping out their hearts. Just as
he was going to do.
Panting and sweating, Dem stopped on
the sidewalk in front of the most notorious club in town. The place was a hole
in the wall. The humans who craved slaveitude drooled over it, spending hours
in line. The cops wanted nothing more than to shut it down. The public saw
Raven’s Chance as a sex club. To werewolves and vampires it was a bloodhouse. The place to go and gorge oneself on
everything it offered. Nothing that happened inside the walls was the vampire’s
fault. The rules stated that you were willing to feed upon admission, even
though everyone knew no one actually read
the fine print. Vampires weren’t stupid. They’d learnt to legalise their
feedings years ago.
Dem’s fists clenched, claws biting into
flesh, as his anger pulsed with the throbbing of his cock. He didn’t know why
he was here, didn’t understand the pull.
Okay, he was being a jackass. He knew
he wanted more. With the moon riding him hard he wasn’t the most rational
person around.
There was a reason werewolves answered
to the alpha, had to listen to him, heed his words. They were little more than
teenage boys while the moon shone bright: running, uncontrollable, causing
chaos. Most didn’t even realise the difference in their behaviour when the moon
turned them wild.
Honestly, the saying “the full moon
brings out the crazies” isn’t a lie. They were out in droves, filling the
streets and clubs with men and woman who needed to fight, to fuck. It was the
only thing on their minds, what drove their souls, and Dem was in a wild mood
tonight.
Anger built a fire behind his ribcage
that worked its way out, feeding itself on every temptation that caught Dem’s eye.
The little wankers lining up in their leathers, waiting for their turn in the
fun house. The bouncer scenting the line, turning away the ones too high to be
useful. Fucking tweekers— wanting to add the high of blood draining on top of
everything else.
This wasn’t the best time for him to be
out with humans, but it wasn’t as if his night was going to get any better if
he went home. No, he was already tainted with the smell of vampire and would be
punished for that. Punished hard. The same moon swayed the alpha, he’d want
blood and broken bones.
Panting up a storm, Dem marched to the
club’s door, his mind overflowing with visions of chaos. Dem snarled at the
bouncer as he tried to rein in the madness, but it was too late. Anger, greed
and desire had more hair growing across his body. His vision turned red,
bloodlust the only sight he saw. Dem needed to get his hands on the vampire
who’d caused all his problems. The bouncer eyed him but stepped aside.
A slight buzz rang in the air around
them. Dem couldn’t hear what was being said and didn’t care. All he heard was
his need to get to the vampire, to string the arsehole up and teach him a
lesson.
The interior of the club was everything
you’d imagine it to be. Dark and warm, it reeked of blood and sex. The smell
drifted up from the floor, like steam rises from the earth when the air is too
cold. It enticed, trying to distract Dem from his pursuit, but it couldn’t, he
needed….
A body
ran into him and Dem’s went nuts. Claws rapidly growing out of the tops of his
fingers as his arm muscles popped and shifted, turning him into the half beast
werewolves were famous for.
Screams
circled him, feeding his anger. His arm came up, swiping at the human who’d
gotten in his way. It never made contact, stilling inches from the face Dem
wanted to bloody up so very badly.
Dem bit
into the air as his other arm lifted to help. Blood, he needed blood, needed to
roll in its warmth, to feed it on flesh and bone.
Humans
were stupid, standing up against something far superior to them. He would win
this short-lived battle and the human would lose because of his foolishness.
Something
stopped his other arm as well. Dem snarled, tried to use his whole body to get
to the man. His arms and legs grew stronger, fighting against whatever was pulling
him back. His clothing ripped but didn’t come apart. Transformed, he wasn’t
much bigger than his already hefty size. He was gaining ground until a vampire,
the one he was here to see, appeared out of nowhere. A thick fist filled his
vision seconds before all the lights in the world turned off.
