Chapter: EPILOGUEQuinn’s POVOne of the other kids pushed Zaya down so I tackled him. “Hey stop!” Zaya yelled as we started to fight then jumped in so now we we’re both fighting this kid.The boy shifted into his dragon, so we’d get off him then he shifted back. “Whatever, I don’t want to fight either one of you. If I did I’d hurt Quinn cause she’s part human and sick because of it. Plus, her mom is always watching.”I glared at him and stood up. “I’m not sick because I’m part human.”My sickness was common among both humans and dragon shifters.Zaya spit at him. “She could take you and her mom isn’t always watching, you’re just scared of her mom.” She grabbed my hand and walked towards the pack house. “Sorry the kids here aren’t like the kids in the village you live in.” In the village there were hybrids and other mixtures species kids

Chapter: CHAPTER 49.5: Return to the Human WorldIn the morning we got ready. “You still haven’t told me how work’s been.”Lexus chuckled. “We’re on vacation, I don’t want to talk about work.” I looked at him seriously. “Fine, work is good. I’m practically running Viv’s business myself. We’re considered partners now.”“What do you even do?” I felt weird that I didn’t know but it’s not like I didn’t try talking about it before.“She’s a noble. Her business is creating work for the people of her kingdom, selling them land, and giving them protection. She works closely with the king and queen too.” I noticed he was feeling admiration for Viv.“How do you feel about Viv?”Lexus sighed. “She’s always been a really good friend, she’s still a really good friend. I enjoy her company and I missed her but not in a sexual or romantic way.” Since we

Chapter: CHAPTER 49.0: Return to the Human WorldMy mom called me over to talk about something important. “Okay so after a lot of convincing from Konain.” All I could think about was how it annoyed Cade when she called Dad that. “I decided I’m going back home.”I raise my eyebrows. “What? No, you can’t, you love it here-”“To visit, only to visit our family.”I exhaled out of relief. “Oh yeah, they think you’re dead or they did. They saw me ride off on a dragon the last time I saw them, so they probably think that you’re with me or something.”“Are… are my parents still alive?” Mom asked nervously.I nodded. “Grandpa and Grandma are still very much alive. They just sleep a lot and don’t like being bothered.”Mom laughed. “So, they’re the same. So, you were raised by my sister and her husband but no one ever talked about me? Not even your grandparents?&r

Chapter: CHAPTER 48.5: Future VisionsI did a few more jobs, some required the gems, but most didn’t. At first I was doing jobs that asked for a magic user but now that people knew the current holder was taking jobs they asked for me specifically. My coven went through a lot of the jobs and sorted them for me from least difficult to most difficult. Other covens and sorceress agencies tried to recruit me, but I liked staying with the one who delivered me as a baby and that my mom was a part of. Once I was done I met Cade and Sadia at a small restaurant. “Hey.” I sat down and put my bag under the chair. Cade smiled. “I assumed you’d be late since you’ve been so busy with working.” I shrugged, “I do as much as I can since Gram warned me about how long I should be working a day. I don’t want to overwork myself again. I usually work when Lexus is working.” Sadia was staring at the menu, and she wasn’t saying anything. Cade spoke instead, “How’s he doing working with Viv?” I

Chapter: CHAPTER 48.0: Future VisionsAqua’s POVLexus shook me awake. “Babe, you told me to wake you up whenever you overslept.”I opened my eyes. “It’s hard not to sleep in sometimes.” I sat up. “You were really rough last night.” I blushed. “It makes me want to sleep longer.” I yawned. “And I hate going anywhere with visible hickeys.”I got out of bed naked, but he pulled me back and kissed my mark. Marks are really sensitive if someone else touches our marks the other will feel pain. When we touch each other's marks, we feel… pleasure. “I wish I could go with you today.”I rolled my eyes. “You have to start work don’t you?” I moaned when he kissed my mark again then pulled away and got up.“Yeah I do but I still wish I could go with you.” He got up. “If you get back before me you should start packing.”“Packi

Chapter: CHAPTER 47.5: Old friendI took a deep breath and got ready to explain. “Fine, I went to go see a friend about a job, but you know that don’t you because you used one of the gemstones to spy on me then you sent Cade.” Aqua glared at me. “You’re avoiding the question. Yes I used one of the gems, but I didn’t send Cade. I told him who you were with and he felt the need to confront you. I told him he didn’t have to go and that I trusted you, but he went anyways.” “Viv put her hand on my shoulder and gave me quick peck on the cheek. That’s all,” I explained. ‘The conversation didn’t sound like that was all,’she thought. “You can hear what you see with your third eye?” I didn’t realize that she could hear our whole conversation, that put me in an awkward position. She sat down on the bed. “Only with the gem, you’re constantly reading my mind which I’m fine with, but I can’t read yours if we’re not together." She sighed. “This is stupid, this isn’t worth fighting over

Chapter: Chapter Three: AugustineAugust’s POVLast night was a lot more intense than it was meant to be. No one was supposed to get hurt. Any wounds I got healed up thanks to my demon healing factor.My mind was fixated on the human from last night, not the one who died. The one who left before the climax of our night was reached. I didn’t even catch her name. It was most likely for the better because she’d probably blame me for what went down. That or she’d be afraid of what I was and I wouldn’t be able to explain it away after what she saw. I wasn’t even sure if I wanted to mess around with human women anymore.Later in the day I left to pick up my niece from elementary school. Riley and her best friend Aaliyah got into the backseat of my car when I pulled up to the front of the school. “Hi, Uncle Auggie!” Riley shouted as she put on her seat belt and helped Aaliyah with hers.“Hey Riley,” I said. “Happy birthday.”“Thank you!!”“Auggie do you have a wife??” Aaliyah asked, without beginning with a Hi.I laughed and

Chapter: Chapter Two: IntroductionsThe man outside looked in my direction and the introduction of our gazes felt magnetic. Not only that but he looked familiar, like we had met before. I definitely couldn’t remember ever meeting anyone in Riley’s family besides her mother. Suddenly I was pulled away from the window by Tillie. “You should probably put a shirt on if you’re gonna be in the window like that,” she said.I looked down only to see my lace push-up bra… I forgot I was shirtless. No wonder he was looking at me so hard. Not only was I in a bra but there was still glitter on my boobs from the party. As my eyes fell down my body I had some bruising and scratching I didn’t notice that had to have also been from my wild night.When I looked up I noticed Tillie’s red puffy eyes. “What’s wrong?” I asked with my hand on her arm.“I’ll tell you after we humor Aaliyah,” she said and pulled me into the bathroom. She grabbed a spray bottle to moisturize my hair and brushed it into a high ponytail. Then she added a little p

Chapter: Chapter One: Partied Too HardMy eyes opened to the sight of my eight-year-old daughter Aaliyah standing in front of me with her big bright brown eyes.As soon as I woke up I knew I didn’t avoid getting a killer hangover. Not only that but I was pretty sure I was still a bit drunk. No doubt I went… a little overboard at my friend’s party last night and I couldn’t remember much of how it ended. I got an idea as my eyes slowly shifted from my daughter to the other side of my bed. Strategically I pulled one of the blankets over the head of my one-night stand.“Mommy,” Aaliyah said with a giggle. “You can’t hide a whole man.” Trust me, I have multiple times before. “We need to leave so I can get to school.”“Tillie couldn’t take you?” I asked as I rubbed my temples, trying to relieve my throbbing headache.Tillie, my best friend and the only support I’ve had since I got pregnant at… fifteen. We lived in a duplex she bought so she could rent out the second unit. When things got harder for me she let me stay and I’ve be
