Finley

Damon woke me up as he parked the truck and when I stretched my arms I hit him in the face, not realizing he was so close to me.

“Sorry,” I said as he laughed.

“If you want to hit me just say so, at least give me a chance to defend myself,” he said as I laughed feeling embarrassed.

“It’s your own fault, why is your head so close to me anyway?” I asked him.

“Let’s go check in,” he said as he climbed out of the truck and I looked up at the hotel.

I followed Damon inside and waited slightly behind him as he checked in and got the keys to a two bedroom suite. He was still playing at being a gentleman and I wasn’t sure if I liked it or not. My head said he should give me space but my heart wanted him close to me.

Upstairs in the suite Damon put my suitcase down in the master bedroom and then went to the second bedroom and closed the door. I sighed and closed my door as well and opened my suitcase to take another shower.

We had to report to this Council place at eight am and I had no

    Damon“Alpha Woods, for your transgressions by marking a human without her knowledge or consent I sentence you to six months seclusion in Brightwater,” Robins said and looked at me before continuing, “you will also undergo the cleansing ceremony whereby the bond will be diminished and your mark will disappear.”“You can’t do that, she’s my bonded half,” I said as I looked at him.“Miss Blake will be moved to an undisclosed location of her choice during your incarceration and given the option to forget you,” Robins said as five more warriors filed into the room.“I need to make arrangements with my clowder,” Damon said.“You will have twenty-four hours before your sentencing commences,” Robins said as he stood up and left the room.“I don’t understand, incarceration…. are you going to prison?” Finley asked me.“Sort of, Finley, look at me, it’s not as bad as it sounds. It’s a closed off town from which we can’t leave and it’s only six months but you’re free now, you can use your real n

    FinleyI was led from the conference room to another one that looked eerily similar. One man and one woman sat at the table and they stopped talking as I walked inside with the woman that escorted me.“Miss Blake,” she said and stepped out of the room.“Good morning Miss Blake, I’m Oracle Lily and this is Council Member Woodruff, we’ll be overseeing your oath,” she said and smiled warmly at me.“Okay,” I said and sat down on the chair she indicated.“It won’t hurt,” she said and winked at me.I felt slightly better knowing that and wondered what this oath consisted of. I didn’t know what to expect and I had no idea where Damon was or what would happen to him, only that he was going to prison. A prison for the supernatural.“This document stipulates the oath, that you swear to not reveal our existence to any outsiders or discuss what happened here today with anybody that is not supernatural,” she said.“Okay,” I said again and felt stupid because that’s all I kept saying.“Give me your

    DamonI was allocated a room on the second floor and I chose the last one in the hallway, knowing that any footsteps walking closer was coming directly for me. We weren’t allowed many personal belongings and absolutely no luxuries.I had to get up at three am if I wanted any hot water in the shower and even that resulted in a few fights during the first week I was there. Breakfast consisted of a slice of bread, two tablespoons of scrambled eggs and a cup of what looked like very weak tea.Lunch consisted of a watery stew with two slices of bread and more tea and dinner was usually sandwiches with fruit. It was enough to keep us alive but not enough to keep our strength up and I knew that by the time I got out of here I’d be weak as hell.“Woods!” the warrior called my name just before we halted work for lunch, “head warrior Enzo is requesting your presence in his office.”I nodded and headed towards the main building. Enzo was the man I’d met on my first day that showed me around. Non

    FinleyEvery day I waited for the pain to start and I had planned my days out so that I wouldn’t have to leave the house. I didn’t want to be driving or in a store when it started because I had no idea when they would do this. Maybe they’d already done it and I just wasn’t aware, maybe because I was human I didn’t even notice it?“Hello,” I answered my phone as it kept ringing for the fifth time.I had moved my laptop to my bedroom and I avoided going to the basement. I didn’t want to fall back into any of my previous habits because I could still see Damon’s face when he found me that night. His scent had lingered in the guest room but it was gone now and I missed it.“Finley, we’re going out tonight and you’re joining us!” Harley said.“I can’t tonight,” I said to her.“Stop making excuses and stop sulking over that asshole,” she said to me.Harley and Wells had come over that night I got home from New York and I had told them all about our weekend in St Barts and then the words woul

    DamonThe kid’s name was George and he became my shadow. Darwin spent a week in the infirmary healing his broken facial bones but from that day onwards everyone steered clear of me and the kid. Everyone knew I was an Enforcer and within two weeks even the warriors left me alone to do my own thing. The only people that talked to me was Enzo and George.“So what are you going to do when you get out?” he asked me one morning during breakfast.“Go home,” I said as I watched a new group of prisoners being escorted into the dining hall.“Yeah I don’t have a home anymore, I’ll probably go someplace warm, start over,” he said. I didn’t ask because I didn’t want to know, I didn’t really care.The days had turned to weeks and then months and soon I had about nine days left of my incarceration. Oracle Bloom had visited me and we had sat in Enzo’s office as she told me that my status as Enforcer and Alpha remained intact and that nothing had changed.Axel hadn’t spoken to me in months, ever since

    Connor stayed at my house for the rest of that week, to make sure that I didn’t suffer any side effects of the bond being broken and I didn’t. Everything went back to normal the next day, everything except that hollow feeling inside my heart but I promised myself that I wouldn’t break down in front of him.He left me reluctantly and only after I promised to stay in touch and answer my phone when he called. I would miss his presence as we had grown quite close. Archer called me every day but visiting was a bit difficult at the moment since he was undergoing clowder training and initiation which would last for the next six months.“What do you mean you haven’t written anything?” Harley asked me as disbelief filled her eyes.“I think I have writer’s block,” I said to her.I couldn’t write about wolves anymore, trust me I tried, but the words wouldn’t come. The ideas were in my head but I physically couldn’t type them. Sheila was constantly phoning me for an update on my new book that I h

    DamonI’d been home for a week now and Axel still hadn’t resurfaced. I was getting worried, really worried. I was in a slump and my irritation levels were through the roof. I snapped at everyone and everything pissed me off.“Axel?” I asked like I did every morning when I woke up but there was nothing, just that empty void inside me.I sighed and got up from the bed to face yet another mundane day of feeling not like me and pretending to be fine. Jared wasn’t really falling for it and Connor kept avoiding me. I could tell he had something on his mind but he was blocking it from me and I wondered why.“Damon?” Jared asked as he walked into the office.“Morning,” I said as I leaned back in the chair.“We need to talk,” he said to me.“About?”“About what’s going on with you,” he said as he sat down in front of the table.“I don’t know what to tell you Jared, I feel fine but not fine,” I said to him.“Maybe you should take a break, Brightwater’s no joke,” he said to me.“It’s more than t

    FinleyI couldn’t control my beating heart. I could literally hear the blood rushing through my veins. He was here, he’d been standing just here a second ago before leaving. He must think I’m insane for staring at him like that! I couldn’t believe it, Damon was back.“He doesn’t remember me,” I whispered to myself as I felt my heart breaking just a little.I blinked away the tears as I sat down in the living room and rubbed my hand over my protruding stomach. I was thirty-two weeks pregnant and the only people that knew was Harley, Wells and Mimi. I hadn’t told Archer or Kat yet and I wasn’t exactly sure why, I guess I was afraid that the clowder would have some sort of claim on the baby.“Hello,” I answered my phone still staring into space.“Finley, it’s Connor,” he said.“Hey,” I said and snapped back to reality.“Are you okay?” he asked me.“I just saw Damon and he really doesn’t remember me,” I said to him.“I’m sorry, I just heard that he went to St Albans,” he said to me.“It’s

    I stood in the front of the ballroom as Connor grinned at me. Soft music was playing and the ballroom was packed to capacity. The doors opened and everyone turned simultaneously to catch a glimpse of her.Finley walked towards me as Archer held her hand and Griffin held her other hand. He had just started walking and his happiness was bubbling over. I couldn’t breathe properly as I looked at them, the two people that I loved the most in this world.“Members of the Woods Clowder, friends and guests, welcome to this auspicious occasion as our Alpha takes and acknowledges his true fated half for all to see. We gather here tonight to join these two in our sacred union by accepting each other as bonded halves for the rest of their lives,” Elder Matthews said as he welcome our guests and started the ceremony.Elder Matthews had been appointed as one of our Elders just a month ago and I was surprised that I really liked him as he proved his loyalty and his worth to all of us.“By joining you

    DamonI couldn’t believe Finley let me mark her. The bond that had snapped in place was even stronger than the one we had previously shared and I woke up the following morning feeling like myself again. I had waited months for her to start treating me like a person again.I had loved her the first time before the bond and I loved her again the second time after I remembered her, all without the bond. I had been mean to her, but it was all to just keep her with me. I didn’t want her not to be in my life and the thought of her dating some other man nearly choked me as the pain ripped through me.I knew she was awake even though her back was to me. We were still in her bed and the sun would start making its appearance soon. I breathed her scent in as I placed my face in the crook of her neck and I felt her shudder.“What have we done?” she asked me softly.“What we should’ve done months ago,” I said.“We fight more than anything else,” she whispered.“Not really, we only fight when we’re

    FinleyAfter our little confrontation in the kitchen Damon seemed to avoid me at all costs. We’d bump into each other during the night as we both got up for Griffin and I implemented a system where I’d get up for him before midnight and Damon would get up after midnight.I was mad at him but worse than that was that I was hurt. I understood his need to be a part of Griffin’s life but he had no right to interfere in mine. I just had one problem with everything that was going on, I still found him attractive and that infuriated me as well because I was sure the asshole knew it.He’d walk around the house with no shirt on and a few times he caught me staring at him. My feelings towards him varied between being in love and really hating him. Our routine consisted mostly of him cooking all the meals since he didn’t trust me in the kitchen and me doing things like the laundry.I had moved my laptop back down to the basement where I wrote in the past but I promised myself I wouldn’t give him

    DamonI organized someone to come to East Whiteland and drive Finley’s car back to St Albans. She was quiet as we drove away from the house and I promised her that someone would pack it up and bring it in a truck back to St Albans.“I think we should move into your house,” I said to her.“You mean your house,” she said as she looked out of the window.“I meant our house,” I said to her.“Will you be sleeping in the basement?” she asked me and I grinned at her.“How big a house do you want?” I asked her.“Four bedrooms at least,” she said.“Why?” I asked.“My room, Griffin’s room, your room and an office, I still write Damon,” she said to me sounding somewhat bitter.“Finley, this is only going to work if you really give it a chance, I’m willing to do that for Griffin, aren’t you?” he asked me.“You know I’ve had just about enough of your insults and making me feel like I’m not good enough to be his mother. I did all of this alone, without any of your help,” she said angrily.“Can you

    FinleyI didn’t dare call Archer again, knowing that Damon was there at the packhouse. My days spent with Griffin was absolute bliss. Every morning we went for a stroll in the park as I pushed him in his stroller and got to know the area better.Our house looked more lived in now and my house had been sold after being on the market for one day, above asking price. I didn’t care who bought it, I was just glad that Griffin and I had settled down now. I had phoned my friends and told them where I had settled down and they promised to come and visit soon.“Hi there,” a man said and I turned around as I looked at him.He was supernatural and I got the idea that he was feline but I couldn’t be sure. He obviously greeted me since he sensed that Griffin was feline too and that I was a familial.“Hi,” I said and looked around.“I’m sorry, it was just so odd finding a familial with a feline baby,” he said with a smile, “I’m Arthur.”“Finley,” I said as I shook his hand warily.“I won’t bite, I

    DamonI watched Finley’s house for the rest of the night but she never came back. I continued to watch her house for the rest of that week and eventually I drifted off to sleep only to be tortured in my dreams. In the first dream she was straddling me, naked, as I held on to her hips. In a split second I was in the ocean looking back at her, then I was picking her up from the floor covered in blood, throwing her over my shoulder in a bar.In yet another dream I told her I loved her as we held hands and walked into the Council building in New York, the dreams were random and there were no order to them. I dreamt about my hearing but in this dream Finley was there as I was sentenced.In the last dream I had her pushed against a shower wall, her legs wrapped around me as my canines pushed into her shoulder and I marked her. I sat up straight in my bed as sweat covered my forehead and Axel growled in my head.“She’s our bonded half,” he said as the memories he had stored flooded through m

    Finley“Finley, I’m so sorry,” Connor said as Damon slammed the front door closed.“Why would you tell him that?” I asked him.“He wouldn’t let it go, he had me up against the wall, slamming my head in!” Connor defended himself.“I’m sorry,” I said to him as he sat down and I took the first aid kit out of the cupboard.“It’ll heal, don’t worry,” he said but I cleaned it anyway.“You shouldn’t have said anything, he doesn’t remember Connor,” I said to him.“I know and I’m sorry because now everything’s a shit storm,” he said as he looked down.“It’s okay,” I said to him.“I’ll go finish the crib, it’s almost done,” he said as he stood up.I sat in the kitchen for almost an hour before Connor was done. He came back downstairs with his toolbox and picked up his jacket where I’d hung it over one of the barstools. He looked at me before putting his jacket back down.“I can stay with you,” he offered.“I’ll be fine,” I said to him.“I don’t know, Damon was pretty angry when he left,” he sai

    DamonIt felt odd talking to Finley and for some reason I actually talked to her, normally I didn’t really like other people but she was easy to talk to and I guess it helped that she already knew what I was. I kept myself busy with stripping the inside of the house and starting with one room at a time, retiling, painting and so forth.I sat and waited for her to go on her afternoon walk but she didn’t leave the house for the rest of the week and I wondered what she did all day. I worked myself tired so that I could sleep at night, although I was sleeping better here than I was at the packhouse.I was just finishing my cup of coffee to head to the store to buy more tiles when I saw Connor’s truck park in front of her house. I watched him as he climbed out and frowned when he hugged and kissed her hello, touching her stomach and then it all fell into place.He was the father of her baby. That would account for him being so closed off in my presence, this was what he was hiding! Instant
