A Huntress for the Rogue

Jax is an ass. He's an ass. He won't answer his phone despite my incessant calls and the only thing burning inside me is the urge to hit him over his head. I'm worried, now that I know about the demons he's dealing with, I'm not sure if leaving him to his own accord is the best thing to do. If he would only do away with his stubbornness and let Rider in. His best friend was dying to find him and make amends. To ensure that his Alpha knew that he still had others caring for him. People who wanted him safe and home. But no. Jax thinks his burden too heavy to share with anyone. It's a Alpha's burden to bear, to protect everyone from the monster that is creeping beneath his claws slowly and surely. If only the idiot understood he couldn't tame that demon alone. I sigh once more resting my forehead against the cold column of my room. I was getting more and more invested in a world that doesn't intend on having me included. It's hard even for Halie who has a wolf as her mate. I'm just the

My eyes slide open, and the fog in my mind dissipates, even as another sensation overrides me. I'm covered in something. It's wet, sticky and coats my entire person. The smell of old blood suddenly fills my nose. It's fresh but have lingered on my skin for hours now. Fear thrills my body, the heavy weight of dread seeping into my bones. It's blood and loads of it too, I realise sitting upwards, glancing down at my naked body. I don't remember shifting back. No, no, no. It was getting worse. The irrationality that fills my mind when the haze takes over was worsening, day by day and there was little I could do to stop it. It's evident that I can no longer control when it happens or how. No one was safe around me anymore. Not even me. Like adding insult to injury, the last time I saw Moi flashes before me. I remember the door being closed. I remember standing outside in the darkness, laying in wait. I remember scratching the door anger, but what happens next, I have no recollection.

We're running out of time. This she-wolf will die if we- or rather I some figure something out and fast. But what? I haven't got the know how to deal with this. Give me a mentally contorted person and I could help them see various perspectives. But this, only God could help her and I was neither a deity not physician. In addition I was sure there was something Jax was not telling me and I was definitely finding out whether he wanted to spill it or not. "Jax!" I call to him but ai doubt he's hearing a word I'm spouting right now. Great. I grab my phone dialing Halie as I paced around in a circle. "Please pick up, please pick up," I murmured. "Hello?" Thank God. "Halie, it's an emergency. I need your help." "Wait, slow down did you say it's an emergency?""Yes. I don't know how to take down the fever and the wounds are infected and.." "Moi, Moi!" Halie screams over the phone. "What!" I shout in response. "Just take them to the hospital. You know that building that normal peo

The house is dead quiet as it’s always been since it’s moved here. I’ve awoken to a soaked bed, my shirt ripped at the edges as if I was fighting myself and sheet askew. It’s a nightmare. Just another one, I remind myself. I can see myself in the darkness, at least I think it’s myself, either the monster I will become or the man I once was. I’m not sure anymore. The silhouettes around me are faceless, the claws extending from the hands bloodied. I can’t stand on two legs while in my wolf form, so that monster shouldn’t be me. Yet I can’t fight the feeling that it isn’t. There’s a circle of flames around me, dead people everywhere, it boiling hot like a geyser, spreading left and right yet I walk between the flames. Only a monster can do that, can’t they? Walk in flames.It’s terrifying. I haven’t had dreams in years and yet when I do close my eyes, that’s the only thing I see behind my eyelids. Now I’m too petrified to even want to sleep. I can’t escape what I become during the day, an

What?? I'm frozen to my spot against the chair, the man man was right after all? What the hell did they just utter? I blinked rapidly, my gaze moving back and forth between my parents, before attempting a stifled chuckle. No, no, no, no, NO! this had to be a joke, it just had to. I glance at Rider, hoping to see his facade of utter seriousness fall as he tells me this was such a prank. No such luck, the truth in his eyes is all the evidence I need. I'm a hybrid. I'm a hybrid. Ragna was right, that bastard... I remove myself abruptly from my seat glancing at my parents for their betrayal. How could they do this to me? How could they keep such an important fact from me all this time? "Are you too serious?" I yelled. "Halie." My mother reaches out tentatively for me but I step away. "Don't touch me!" I snapped, pulling back my hand as if she wielded a jagged knife. "You will be respectful to your mother." Dad chastises. "Respectful, you aren't even respectful to me. You knew t
