Dark Indiscretions & Monster Unleashed by Shakuita Johnson

Dark Indiscretions:


What happens when your whole family is scarier than any nightmare and you have no desire to be anything like them? Do you stay and go along with the family plans or do you rebel and have them possibly turn their viciousness on you?

Jennifer Johnston experiences first hand why whispers are spoken in the dark about her species being evil when she was just a century old. What should have been another family dinner spent arguing over why she didn’t want to keep the bloodlines “pure” by being married off to her older brother turned into a nightmare and left her with more than tortured memories.

Jackson Dawls and Taylor Durham had been pack mates, best friends, and the other’s mate for as long as they could remember. They were a deadly species all their own but even they feared the Mystics and their overly cruel and barbaric ways, but unforeseen circumstances bring them face to face with not one but a few. Will there lives be in danger or is something great and unexpected awaiting them?

They also have to stay under the radar of the human society that is set out to destroy those they believe to be “Tarnished” and a danger to mankind.

When the three meet long ago secrets are brought to the light. Secrets no one but Jennifer knew. Not only do they have to learn to get along with each other because they are fated, someone is also stalking Jennifer and preforming sinister acts without her being any the wiser.

Jennifer must seek guidance from old acquaintances and form alliances with those she never thought she would. She is met with riddles and startling revelations that she never would have imagined possible.

Will they accept their fates and work together or will old fears destroy their lives? Will Jennifer be able to reclaim what was taken from her right from under her nose?

The smell of sex was definitely in the air, and already Jenny's heart was pumping. She could hear the blood calling to her from the veins of all the humans present at Heaven's Angles. Stupid humans didn't know they were in a bar full of killers. Not her problem. Just because she wasn't as bloodthirsty as some didn't mean she still didn't need her fix. She didn't have a death wish. She still needed the occasional sip of blood to survive. She blamed it on her dual nature. Whatever; she would just take what was needed and be on her way. She spotted a cute little couple that was probably in their early twenties. They would do. All she had to do was turn on the charm a bit and they would take her home. She would have a little snack with her sex. Take care of both problems at once.

She walked over with her body's calling powers in full effect to start the subtle seduction. She loved the thrill of the power running through her veins. She didn't give in to her body's demands very often but when she did she relished in it. She felt nothing; “regret” and “remorse” were just words in a dictionary when she felt her Mystic nature rising to the surface. She was in full predator mode. Now it was time to catch her prey.

Perfect. Someone was coming out the back door. Now, as his soon-to-be bride hunted, he would do the same. Poor sap wasn't even going to see it coming. He moved faster than the human eye could perceive and dragged his prey to the dark corner. Fear was thick in the air. Good, he loved it when they were scared. He looked his prey over. A cute little twink, slim, lean muscles, spiky blond hair, loads of mascara, and cute lips. Mm, he would do nicely. He took his knife out his back pocket and made a tiny slit below his prey's collarbone.

"That's right sweetie. Squirm for me. Just makes it more exciting. Maybe I'll fuck you while I drain you. Make it that much sweeter."

***

Jenny had made it to her mark. Their eyes immediately darted toward hers. "Mm, aren’t you both adorable. Are you guys up for a little fun tonight? I promise you won't be disappointed."

She was ready to go. She could already feel her fangs trying to bust out of her gums. She needed to get them out of here like five minutes ago.

"We're always up for some fun," the female purred at her.

Her boyfriend just nodded his head in agreement.

"Our place isn't too far from the club. If you're ready we can leave now. It's just me and Jim tonight, so we don't have to say any goodbyes."

That's fucking perfect, Jenny thought. She made sure to use her powers of concealment on any witnesses who might have seen her leaving with the couple, just in case. You could never be too fucking careful, especially since the Mooyers. She didn't need their bullshit in her life.

***

Well, it seems like his Jenny found herself a nice couple to fuck and suck. He loved it when she fed
 her Mystic. It gave him hope that she wouldn't fight him too much. Having finished with his prey, he 
discarded the useless body. He then made sure to use his magic to remove all evidence that he had 
been there. Any human or other who got any bright ideas would think that there was a serial killer 
running rampant Even the two little holes in his neck where gone. Usually after a kill, he would at 
least try to move the body, but he didn't have that kind of time right now. His prey was getting away 
and he didn't like her out of his sight for too long.













Dark Indiscretions: Monster Unleashed


What would you do if the one fate chose for you vanished into thin air? What would you give up? Who would you become to stay with that person?

Krista Bell Johnston finally knows what it's like to be free. The torture she endured at the hands of her psychotic father has unleashed the monster her mother tried so hard to help her suppress. The only thing she wants to do is be the shadow in the night that everyone is afraid of.

Taser “Taz” Jameson is barely holding it together. He lost Kris once to her father and now he's losing her to the monster she is becoming. He's also barely containing his own monster since Krista decided she didn't need her mates anymore. Nathan is still near but he may not be enough.

Nathan Brimming, Jr. is on the verge of losing not one but both of his mates. One vanished without a trace. The other is avoiding him. He has run out of patience with them both.

But when the monster that Krista has become comes to them with a proposal; will they take her up on it and possibly lose themselves or will they try to talk her down and get the beast to put back on her chain?



“About damn time!” Jennifer yelled from the backseat. She quickly exited the car before Jackson could respond. She needed to see her daughter. Jennifer walked as quickly as her escalating pregnancy would allow her. Her steps faltered when she heard the heart-piercing howl of a Dylia, a howl that could only mean someone was in serious pain. Before she knew it, Jackson was right beside her and holding her by her elbow. She didn’t say a word.

“Do not leave my side. Something is wrong with Taser. I would know that damn howl anywhere,” Jackson said.

They made their way into the compound and Jackson questioned the first wolf he saw, which happened to be one of the triplets, Bane. He wasted no time in the questioning.

“What in the hell is going on around here? Why does your Alpha sound like someone just shot him in his balls?” Jackson inquired.

“It would seem that the Alpha Mate has vanished. Poof, without a trace. She did so right in front of both her mates. Nathan is just standing there boiling mad, while the Alpha won’t stop howling and running circles around Nathan. He also growls at anyone who gets too close to either of them. I was on my way to call you and Taylor when I ran into you,” Bane explained.

“What in the hell do you mean vanished?” Jennifer screeched.

“Poof,” was all Bane said in answer and walked away, leaving Jennifer screaming every unpleasant word she could think of to his retreating form.

This could not be his life right now. This shit could not be happening. He was in the Twilight Zone. Yep. That had to be it. No other explanation. He was going to wake up any moment from this cluster-fuck of a situation. He had to wake up. He wouldn’t accept any other option, but as he looked at the face of his Nyhyia, he knew that shit was long past ever happening. He should have fucking let Taylor drive her.
