His Dark Obsession by Moonlight Muse

Continuation from His Dark Obsession by Moonlight Muse to
His Fated Obsession (Book 2) Chapter 46. Our Return
ZEDKIEL.
It’s like I’ve just been catapulted through the air and then hit the ground hard.
The breath is knocked from me and for a moment, I feel boxed in.
I stagger and I feel Zerachiel’s confusion as he’s thrown to the back of my mind, as I regain control of my body.
‘You’re back.’ He says, sounding far more shocked than I would have expected.
‘Yeah, what did you think? That we’ll be stuck there forever?’ I reply, looking around, we are in a forest, one I’m not sure exactly
where it is... ‘Where the hell are we?’ I ask him, as I look down, my clothes are dirty and he’s clearly not showered.
Seriously, does he not know personal hygiene?
‘In the forest not far from the crypts... actually... I was trying to think of a plan.’
I frown. Why the hell is he alone?
‘What plan and where are the rest?’ He sighs and I can feel his conflict.
‘Ragnar betrayed us, and Ziahra, well, to control the damage done... She told us to leave and that she’ll make up a story for
Vadam. However, I know she’ll be killed. Both Blade and Gray are dead. We have to do something. We need to go to the
Vampires immediately!’
He’s different from how I’m used to seeing him, but perhaps the reality of the situation around us has made him open his eyes.
‘And Evelyn, Kash and the others?’ I ask.
I have to admit that letting Zerachiel out of sight alone was risky on their behalf.
‘They don’t need to fear me. You may not trust me, Zedkiel, but I am not your enemy. I have done nothing but protect you all my
life.’ He replies, and I can sense his irritation.

‘I think we...’ I trail off, Selene’s words ringing in my head.
I put my barriers up around my thoughts. Selene was clear that we should not even discuss it with each other... why would she
say that unless she didn’t want Zerachiel and Evelyn to know... I know Luna is different, she is a part of Evangeline and there is
no way she can block her out but if Selene said that we need to be careful, then we should be.
There is no such thing as being too careful.
I don’t know why she said what she did, but there’s always a reason for everything...
‘Where are the rest?’ I repeat.
He hasn’t actually told me where they are, and I need to get to Evangeline quickly.
‘Well... Jeremiah and Kash have gone ahead to take Ragnar back and Evelyn and Adonis are resting for the night. ’
I frown. It’s hard to believe Ragnar would do that... he has always been rough around the edges. He can lose his temper and
attack people, but he doesn’t kill quickly.
In fact, Zerachiel has killed far more than Ragnar has.
There has to be more to it. I will speak to Ragnar myself. Hopefully, Jeremiah can sort things out. If they are headed back then
even Chasyn or Dad can help. I’m sure things will be fine.
I just need to contact someone as soon as we get our hands on a phone.
‘Let’s return to Evelyn and Adonis.’ I say, ‘Which direction?’
‘North.’ He grumbles. ‘I don’t think returning is ideal. We need to help Ziahra. I think we should head back to the vampires.’
‘So, were you planning to abandon Evelyn and Adonis?’ I ask.
‘No, I was just planning for now.’ He hisses.
‘Fine, calm down. The fact you want to help Ziahra is surprising in itself. I never knew you even liked her.’ I remark, thinking it’s
good to be back on earth again as I walk through the trees.
‘No, but I’m not a fool, we need to stop Vadam!’ He growls.

“Yeah....” I say out loud. ‘I know that.’
Soon I pick up Adonis’s and Evangeline’s scents and, after a few more minutes, I find them.
Adonis is talking to Evangeline, who is pacing as she listens to him. Her hair is shorter again, but it still shines silver under the
moonlight and I touch my own head.
I didn’t actually mind those dreads, and Evangeline liked them... maybe I’ll consider growing my hair sometime.
“Zed...” Evangeline says. She rushes over to me and hugs me tightly.
“I stink.” I say, at least she smells good. She smiles up at me, amused.
“You don’t.” She says, as Zerachiel grumbles in my mind.
‘Mate knows best.’ He remarks.
I feel the shift in her touch and I know she’s given control to Evelyn.
“Zedkiel...” She whispers, her heart is pounding violently, and I don’t know why but I feel fear from her.
I frown, hugging her tightly and kissing the top of her head.
“I’m back,” I say softly.
She looks up at me, and I caress her hair away from her face. “Thank you for being on your best behaviour.” I say with a small
smile.
A smile lights up her face and she nods.
“I promised you.” She says before making a face. “I can be good, you know.”
I nod, kissing her forehead again, before hugging her once more.
The choice of not locking her in the crypt was right and, in turn, she showed me she could be trusted. “You knew Evangeline was
there, yet you helped... thank you.”
She simply nods.

“We’re both back now and we are going to end this curse, all of us together.” I say, stepping away.
I need to f*uc*king change.
She nods, and I turn to Adonis. “Tell me everything that happened, but before that, I hope you have some clean clothes.”
It was nearly two hours later, and luckily Adonis had some clean clothes and, although there was nowhere to bathe, a bottle of
water sufficed.
“Alright, this is the plan, Adonis. You return home first thing in the morning. I will contact Kash when I can, but I also need you to
fill them in on what we’ re planning for now. Dad, Chasyn, Kash, all of them and someone needs to talk to Ragnar to ask him his
version. He has a temper, but I don’t see him killing.” I say.
“Yeah, that sounds good.” Adonis frowns as he nods his agreement.
“If you go in wolf form, you’ll travel faster.
Evangeline and I are going to head to the Vampires. I’ll find a way to get in contact with Ziahra and see what happens. If not, we
walk right in.” I say biting into the biscuit that Adonis had given us. It’s not much but at least he had a few bits on him.
In the realm of the gods, I didn’t need blood... but now I need some...
Evangeline is sitting beside me, she’s back in control and I wonder how things are between her and Evelyn right now... it’s
almost as if I can’t show her my full affection for fear that Evelyn may take it the wrong way.
I want her to find her happiness too, but I also know that happiness is not with me, even if Evangeline thinks it can be.
“Understood, I will set off after a little rest.” Adonis says.
I nod. “Yeah, we’ll set off in the morning too.” I
say, despite just stepping through a portal, I feel as if I’ve been running for hours.
I move back and lay down on the forest floor, pulling Evangeline close and burying my nose in her neck.
I kiss her neck sensually, the urge to drink from her tempting me.
‘F*uc*k Zed... drink from me...’ she whispers, as I throb against her.

Her heart races as she arches her back, pressing herself fully against me as I sink my teeth into her neck, sucking harder.
She stifles her sigh of pleasure as I drink my fill. Letting her sweet, delicious blood run down my throat.
My hands roam her body, and I squeeze her ass.
‘We aren’t alone.’ She reminds me softly.
‘I know, and as much as I want to f*uc*k you, I’ll wait a little longer...’ I reply through the link.
I squeeze her ass one final time. The urge to shove my fingers up her p*uss*y is enticing but I keep myself in control and force
myself to put a little space between us.
Zerachiel also seems to want a piece of her, clearly having missed her.
‘Let’s take mate now...’ He suggests.
I’m tempted to, especially the way her body is pressed against me, but now isn’t the time.
‘When things are better.’ I say to him.
‘Sure, because you had mate all to yourself up there, did you learn anything that will help us?’ He asks.
I frown. ‘Not really, we were given a second chance to come here, I just know that we need to stop things from playing out as
they do in every lifetime ... and I don’t think we’ll make those mistakes again.’
‘I see.’
I don’t say anything more, thinking he seems smarter or more intelligent if that’s the right word. Even his calmness as he
questions me feels different. Or has something changed within me?
‘How was Evelyn whilst I was gone?’ I ask, ‘And did you treat her well?’
‘Of course, I did, and she was fine, more lost in her own thoughts. I’m assuming she’s plotting her next move. There were
moments she was up to something, but she’s clever and made sure she wasn’t caught.’
That sounds more like him. Looking down, I can see Evangeline falling asleep, her breasts rising and falling steadily.
What answer are we missing?
