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

The Guys Povs

Coles Pov

Walking out from Alexs room was hard, I didn't want to leave my mate especially because of all the danger she's in just from being here. She is strong, I could tell that but it didn't ease my anxiety. I march down the hallways until I get to the boys' wing. The other guys are trailing behind discussing her. I don't like how they act around her; it grinds on my bones but even though she's my mate I have no claim to her yet without the bond being formed fully. I grunt out a frustrated breath and open by door and slam it behind me. How can I get her to be mine? She doesn't even understand the bond, she has all the other guys vying for her attention too. I growl out my frustrations whilst stomping into the bathroom to shower. Once under the warm stream I relax a bit and think about Alex. Her body is delicious, her scent is consuming, her eyes are unique but beautiful and she has so much sass in her and it turns me on even more. I get hard just thinking about her. "Fuck," I breathe out. I pump by cock trying to relieve some of the tension, thinking about her divine curves. I slam my hand on the cold tiles as I cum and breathe harshly. She will be mine; I just have to figure out how to make it happen.

Sebastians Pov

I watch the dog slam his door behind him. I shake my head and laugh. The others have already gone into their rooms. Meanwhile I have something else in mind. I run out of the building, which merely takes me a mere moment and find myself at the base of the building. I look up at the window that houses my snack and climb the wall. As soon as I'm at the window I can see her body huddled under the quilt. Why does she smell so good, so sweet and deadly that I struggle to think of anything else? I know I'm becoming obsessed which is never a good thing. She forgot to lock the window, silly girl, she should have known better from my earlier actions. I slide in through the window as quietly as a mouse. I want to crawl into her bed and nibble at her neck, maybe even the inside of her thigh. The thought sends pleasure coursing through me. I won't though, not without her asking me to do it instead. I grin knowing I will make that happen no matter what. I just need to keep her safe so she doesn't die and her blood doesn't go to waste.

Wards Pov

What a strange woman, what even is she? I don't believe my father has ever been unable to identify someone. She makes me think too much which is odd. My body also seems to be having a reaction to her. This has never happened to me before and it leaves me with a frown between my brows and more confusion. I shouldn't feel anything really. My soul was stolen when I was a small child so why am I rubbing at my chest like it aches? I need to be wary of her. I wouldn't mind having a soul again but it shouldn't be possible. My father did everything to retrieve it. I should even be alive but I am thanks to Azure. I lay in bed and sleep takes me, bringing me images of Alex.

Adams Pov

Me and Eden are in our room strategizing. We don't normally tend to be so serious but hey ho we have something to protect, I guess. I mean we searched for her so long to find her and just bring her back to the apparently worst possible place? I feel like a dickhead. So does Eden. We're sat on our beds facing each other and trying to figure out how to keep Lucinda away from her. Our dads an issue but at least he is curious whereas Lucinda is not. I think her powers warned her about Alex. She is a Demon but she is spawned from Herthia who had the ability to gage power. I think Lucinda is scared of her. I'm not sure why though and we can't figure out what Alex is. I guess we just need to protect her.

We have the issue of our Dad wanting us to report to him but who said we had to be honest, right? I don't want him know what she is before she understands it and before we can get her the hell out of here. I wince at what new torture our dad will bring down on us if he finds out we are going to lie to him and keep Alex away from him. "I don't like that Coles mated to her either," Eden grumbles. "I don't either but he might have to learn to share," I laugh after saying it with how unlikely that is but tough shit he's going to have to. I want her, Eden wants her. We just need her to want us now. I think she wants us all a bit but she's not so trusting after our dad's declaration. Me and my twin are determined though and we have better people skills that the others, kind of anyway. "We're going to have to take shifts, make sure she's always with one of us or the guys," Eden says. I somehow don't think that will take much convincing for the others.
