Power in Death: Book 1 of The Destiny in Death Series

Highjacked Bedroom

I groggily open my eyes. I turned on my side in bed and look out of the window I heard the tapping from. I knew it.  I shimmy up the bed bringing the covers with me... but I'm still fully covered in the dirty garbs I was dressed in for my resting place so I don't need to protect my modesty and let the quilts fall to my waist. Sebastion is there, watching me with liquid amber eyes as the suttle breeze catches his white locks that have fallen onto his forhead. I'm mesmerised and I have to internally slap my self. I can't be like this, even though they seem protective of them they are all super weird and my spies now, they are just as much my enemy as the bitch, maybe they're even more dangerous? My heart tells me they just might be. 

I slowly slink out of bed, his glowing amber eyes and the curiosity within me drawing me to the window like I'm being pulled by an invisible rope. I lift the latch before I know it and he's standing in front of me within a blinks worth of time. My lips drop open in, silently stunned at his incredible speed. Looking up into his amber eyes, I get lost there for a second and then clear my throat and turn to perch at the end of my bed. He elegantly prowls forward and yes I mean fucking prowls. It'd be like a horror movie if he weren't so damn delicious. He reaches out and my body stiffens, he runs his long index finger down the side of my cheek and stops at my collarbone. Coming out of the shock and pushing away the tingles that have penetrated my skin I slap his hand away as a blush mars my cheeks. I frown up at him as he smirks at me.

"Sorry I'm late, none of us have had a second to breather since the headmistress caught us after you left. I only just escaped her manic clutches or I would have been here sooner" He whispers, gazing down at me. Uhh, i'm seriously getting awkward right now, why the fuck is he apologising to me? So seriously as well, did he think I was staring out the window longingly just waiting for him like a bloody Disney movie?  "Don't worry about it mate, would you mind leaving?" I say sternly, his eyes open a fraction, I'm going to say that is the true expression of shock. Fuck I could never keep my mouth shut, maybe that's why I was murdered. 

He takes a shuffled step back, ha not so prowley now. I internally giggle and I think I manage to keep a straight face. He looks so confused that I almost feel bad for the guy, but I'm right aren't I? Yeah just looking at him makes me flustered and I feel something beyond that which I do not care to explore right now. Best to keep a distance. In the end he's just a stranger, yeah a stranger that cried remorsefully thinking I was going to die but he's the enemy as far as I'm concerned. Pretty sure he want's to gobble me up too."I.." he starts but doesn't finish as the twins pop into the room in an orb of a blood like substance? Ew. God this is freaky. They both give me matching smirks until they realise I'm not the only one in the room. "Should have known you slithered in here" The twin the on right says, I think it's Eden. He has a very slightly rougher voice. I'm sticking with it anyways. They both wear matching frowns looking at Sebastion.

Sebastian gives them a predatory smirk flashing his fangs, yeah I had a hunch he was a vampire with his pale complexion and his hand was really cold earlier but it's a bit different seeing the immediate evidence. Fuck though if it's not kind of hot. Internal face palm.

They stare off a bit until a large figure is hurtling through my window, by figure I mean a fucking massive ass wolf. He almost knocks Sebastian off his feet but the vamps fast. He sniffs the air, looks at me with bright blue eyes and trots and curls up at my feet. He's fucking adorable, I secretly know he's an overly large masculine male underneath the exterior but alls I see now is a big fluffy black wolf curled round my feet. I should be scared but I'm a dog lover and apparently a wolf one too"Typical!" Sebastion hisses. 

Werewolf boy growls a bit but drops his head back to my foot looking up at Sebastian. "I come here to woo her, I'm pretty sure I got rejected too and now the fury man beast is making her blush. Is he cute my love?" He directs at me with a wave of his hand. The twins are chucking at Sebastian. My cheeks are burning now and werewolf boy looks up at me. "What's his name?" I whisper. "For Jackles Sake!I think she found a pet." He sounds upset but theres a curve on his lips as he looks at the Wolf tauntingly. With the way wolf boy is growling I guess that was an insult. 'Cole' I hear a voice penetrate my mind, a gruff deep voice that bangs in my head. I yelp at the sudden intrusion. 'Sorry, it's the bond taking hold' The voice says. I look at the wolf at my feet and know it's him. "Bond?" I ask. 'I'll explain later,' is his short reponse. Meanwhile all the other men in the room are staring at me in disbelief. "Did he say bond?" The twins freakily ask in union. "Yeah..." I say which makes everyone curses at. Eh? 

The twins bow their heads and whisper at eachother. The vampire from across me looks murderous whilst staring at the wolf. Whats happened? Other than the weird voice in my head, which I don't think they heard. I read a few bits about bonding in the book but that can't be right. I should have read more. God damn, every time I'm around these guys I get bombarded with shit. I'm utterly exhausted  and just want to pass out. 

I let the guys do their thing, I can't be bothered with this crap right now. Instead I scoot around the giant wolf who promptly stands to follow, I turn and point my finger in a sit down motion. Oh god he actually sits down. My inner cutness rader is off the charts. I clear my throat. I hunt through the draws and find some standard clothing. Bingo, that god there is some clothing here otherwise I would have been doomed to wear my death clothes still. They're making me feel morbid. After I have rummaged through a few I have some black tracksuit bottoms, a sports bra, cotton black undies and a white t-shirt in hand. Hopefully the bathroom will have some basic toiletries. Once I've grabbed everything I think I need I'm instantly moving to the door that has an attached ensuite bathroom. Fucking fancy! I open it and I turn around to close the door. My gaze skips to them briefly and their eyes are all locked on me. Fuck, this is going to be an interesting new start my my life after death. 

I turn and close the door behind me leaving them to talk about me without me getting further head fucked with the information. Can't deal. The bathroom is dark and I press my head on the door. I relax my should and partially slump whilst all of the events of the past day keeps swirling in my head. I shake my head knowing I need to sleep to be able to start to process everything. I switch on the light next to the door and turn to look in the mirror and I instantly freeze at my appearance. I scream. It's an earth shattering sound. One I only ever produced once in my life which was when I was hurtling of the balcony to the sidewalk. Not even a second later the door I closed is pushed open. Probably denting the wall from the force of it banging into the wall. Sebastian is there behind me also staring at my reflection. A second later Cole in all his big furry glory is at my side sniffing the palm of my hand and nudging it. The twins are in the door way with a matching confused expression. "what's wrong love?" Sebastian says. Black spots invade my vision and I'm falling again.
