ALPHA GAVRAEL FORTUNE STAND
ADAIRA~“I… I don’t know what way to go next. I’m sorry, I thought this would be easier.”I don’t know why I felt so discouraged all of a sudden. Maybe it was because of the throng of people moving around. I just felt confused on what way was the correct path. And no road in the fairgrounds was straightforward. Just about fifteen paces ahead, the main road branches off in five directions, each leading to a different part of the fair. And those roads led to even more roads if I judged by the amount of people I was seeing. To say I was overwhelmed would be an understatement.“Don’t do that. Don’t doubt yourself.” Gavrael said to lift my spirits.I appreciated his words of encouragement, but it didn’t do much for me. I’m the one that led us here, and it seemed like that had just been by a stroke of luck. Who knows? Maybe it was even a coincidence that a fair named Polaris was here at the same time we came to search for a North star. What if the North Star I was supposed to find was some
ALPHA GAVRAEL THE HIDDEN ONE
ADAIRA~“She knows we’re shifters.” I said to Gavrael through our mind link and he looked at me like I had lost my mind.“That’s not possible. I killed all those humans involved in your capture. And I checked their minds before doing so. They hadn’t told anyone outside that place about us yet so the knowledge of our existence died with all of them. If anyone else had known of the existence of shifters, don’t you think they would have tried to find us or maybe spread the information to the authorities to find us?” He replied to me through the mind link.I didn’t take my eyes off the woman. She was now hunched over, almost like she was trying to cover herself from my gaze with the cloak she wore while pretending to be cold. But I knew her shivers were from fear, not from cold. Gavrael was right, there was no logical explanation for why this woman possibly knew of our existence and identified us so easily even among so many people. But I’m supposed to trust my instinct on this journey,
ALPHA GAVRAEL WITHOUT BACK UP
GAVRAEL~Watching Adaira win the hammer contest and seeing the look on all the men’s faces as she did so was immensely satisfying. It made my mind ease a little, to remember that she was stronger than all of them combined so my paranoia that she may be exposed to danger here was unfounded. I still refused to let my guard down though but I became less tense than when we first left the pack to come for this search.Then she dragged me to so many rides, the most embarrassing was riding on a pink pony on a merry go round meant for children while Adaira tried not to laugh and I was gawked at by parents and children alike. The pony was too small to hold my weight, but I still held on to it and moved as it moved. It was beyond embarrassing but it was worth it in the end because it made Adaira laugh. At least for a little while, she didn’t have that worry line on her face from thinking about our real reason for being here. If we stayed here for a few hours and she still didn’t see anything t
ALPHA GAVRAEL SHE WANTS ANSWERS
ADAIRA~“Adaira, wait!” Gavrael said to me but I didn’t stop.It was like I was being compelled to go towards whatever it was I was feeling. This must be the thing I was supposed to find here, or a person if they were running away. But if I was meant to find this person, then why was the person running away? It was so confusing.“It could be a trap for fuck’s sake!” Gavrael yelled at me but I kept going.I heard him swear behind me as I entered the inner room. I didn’t have time to look around. I moved faster ahead, towards the direction of the departing footsteps. I saw the back of a man covered with a cloak leaving the back of the booth and I followed. But as I stepped outside, I didn’t see him anymore because the back of the tent led to a crowded part of the fair.“Damn it!”I lost him.“What were you fucking thinking running off like that?” Gavrael fumed as he came up behind me and turned me around to face him.“I had to follow him. Why would he be running if there was nothing to
ALPHA GAVRAEL A CHILD?
ADAIRA~“There is nothing here for you to find. Just leave us in peace. Go back to your pack, go back to your people and leave me be. I have done nothing wrong to you.”“Save your breath. I’ve already told you, we’re not leaving without answers. And you may claim innocence but guilt is written all over you.” I said to her.“He’s already gone. He got away. What more do you want? I’m not important, you can feel it.”“And why is he more important than you? What is all this supposed to even mean?” I asked her and she kept her mouth shut.No matter how much I glared at her, she refused to speak. She was bold, I’ll give her that. Well, it may be more of stupidity than actual courage really. She must know that we would still get answers one way or another.“If you don’t start talking, I will get the answers from your head by myself. I’m not a fan of this game you’re playing here, whatever it is.” Gavrael growled at her.“Do what you think you must. I will not tell you anything. And you will
ALPHA GAVRAEL THEIA
ADAIRA ~ “You have a child.” I said and the fear in her eyes was more than enough confirmation. “Where did you hide…” I started to ask and then paused as the answer to my question came to me before I even finished asking. “Your child is still inside the room. That’s why the enchantment on the room is so strong, so you can hide him or her from everyone else. Your husband was just a distraction, he ran away to lead us away, and make us think he’s the one I’m supposed to find when he isn’t. He must have been carrying something that carries the aura of the child which is why I felt a brief connection to him, just to deceive me. That was why the minute he was out of sight, I could no longer feel him, that enchantment isn’t as strong as the spell on the room.” “No, please!” She yelled as I began to walk back into the inner room. She began to cry and tried to come after me but Gavrael held her back with his power. I stepped back into the room and immediately felt like a heavy blanket h
ALPHA GAVRAEL CAN SHE DO IT?
ADAIRA ~ “My name is not Selene.” I said to the girl and she just smiled like she knew something I didn’t. But that wasn’t important. I had more important questions to ask her. “You will understand soon. All will be revealed to you in due time.” More cryptic mumbo jumbo. I didn’t have time for this. “You say you’ve been waiting for me yet your parents did all they could to make sure I don’t even see you.” I said to her. “They’re afraid. I’ve told them that they cannot change what fate has ordained no matter what they do, but they protect me because they love me. Our paths were meant to cross, no one can stop that.” She replied. “Why?” I asked. “Why have I had the need to find you? Why are our destinies entwined? What do you know?” “I know a lot of things, but the most important detail to you is what I am. I am a seer.” Seers were Sage wolves that could see the future, predict events, even see the past sometimes. To be a seer, it meant that she must have access to magic, a lo
ALPHA GAVRAEL TEARY FAREWELL
ADAIRA~“I was born for this purpose alone. I must be your guide to the nether realm no matter the cost. It doesn’t matter if my life is the prize, because if I don’t do this, we will all die anyway, it would only take more time so what’s the difference?” Theia asked.“There has to be another way to do this without putting you in danger or sacrificing your life. If you were mine, I would have done the same as your parents did to protect you, and even more. I understand their fear of losing you.” I said to her.“If there was another way to do it, I wouldn’t have been born a seer. You need a tether to this realm when your non physical form leaves to the nether realm. You’re not actually going there in the present, you just need to leave this realm in order to break the spell you cast to keep your memories away.”“The spell I cast? I don’t have magic, at least not in the way that your kind wields it.” I said ti her.“You do, you just don’t remember it. You were touched by the moon, the
