Alaric
The entire drive back to the castle, I am so lost in thought I didn’t hear Liza calling my name.
“Alaric, Alaric, earth to Alaric.” She says waving her hands in front of my face.
“Huh, sorry love I was just lost in my thoughts.” I reply snapping back to here and now.
She giggles saying, “ ha ha are you ok? What I was asking, was how long will we be gone?”
“Yes love, I was just thinking of this special spot my father had built for my mother, I wanted to share with you.” I said as I grab her hand and place a kiss on top of it.
“You never told me about your parents. I’d love to meet them.”
Feeling the pain in my heart as if it happened yesterday, “my father passed a long time ago, but my mother would love you. I will see if I can get her to come meet us one day this week while we are at the castle. I have a few things I want to show you and
DominicLooking through Jesse's memory I watch as I see the familiar glow of golden eyes. The scales begin to shine through, right when I was about to figure out this dragon’s identity she walks out. I am blown away at how much she reminds me of my true love, Elizabeth.Breaking free, I am so lost in thought, how could this be? Has she been alive this entire time? I will kill this fucking dragon and get my queen back. My wolf is scratching at my insides begging to be let out. The familiar sound of my bones breaking as the uncontrollable rage takes over. My midnight black fur with blue spirals starts pushing thru, I’m no typical wolf.I don’t know much about my biological family, but my adoptive brother and I use to be thick as thieves. Guess that’s what happens when fate gave us the same mate. My family was killed by witches when I was just a pup. We are a close descendant of the Moon Goddess. I guess that’s where I get m
(*Dominic'sFlashbackCont..*)I can’t believe that we finally found my family. However, I am saddened because I would have to choose between the two families. I look over my shoulder to ensure they are still following. Not much further and we will be entering the dragon territory.'Dominic! Dad said meet in the great hall of the castle.'Alaric said in the mind link.'Ishereally ok with us bringing my real familyhere?’I asked worriedly.'Yesbro.The entire horde is happy for you. Dad said hehad a solution he hopes the wolves will love.’'OK.'I replied skeptically.Walking just a bit further I stop and turn to face the wolves, digging in deep to a link I never though
Dominic : (Memory from when his Wolf family met his Dragon family)Walking into the great hall I smile at the scene in front of me. Mom sure does move quickly, in just the short time she already has the hall fully decorated and ready for a small intimate party it seems. There is the one long dinner table in the middle of the floor decorated with the white lace table cloth. Mom placed three vases full of my favorite flowers baby blue roses, orange with red outlined roses, and babies breath. There are ten plates and wine glasses on the table, enough to include everyone.I love my family, they always go out of their way to make guests feel at ease and at home. It is kind of funny how you can feel like you’ve known each other your entire lives, but if it is called for you will know by how my father carries himself if you are friend or foe(my father's reputation precedes him.)
DominicThis is complete bullshit. I thought I had finally managed to get rid of these memories. The pain from having your brother betray you and first takes our mate for himself. Sitting in my office growing angrier and angrier as the flashbacks continue to haunt me as if it just happened yesterday. That horrible day we both lost everything, because of my selfish ass brother Alaric.(*Flashback The day it all began!! Themoment before the war began!!!*)A few years have passed since I’ve left home, so I decided it was time to come see my brother. But the closer it got, the more I got this ominous feeling like something horrible will happen if I go home. I ignored it because I needed my brother. I had been deployed in Iraq for the past seven years. But I finally got leave clearance and I would be home soon. First it was wait for four months, then that dropped d
AlaricMaking our way to my favorite spot, it has it’s own hidden magic that I am counting on to help Liza not totally freak out today. Walking hand in hand I help her over the over turned logs that are covered in moss.“Where are we going?” Liza asked trying to pry more hints out of me.“Patience, we will be there soon. No scratch that, we are here.”She turns and faces the meadow in the clearing. Everything is so bright and colorful. The blue roses seem to dance with the wind, as the humming birds move from flower to flower gathering nectar.“This place is beautiful.” She gasped out walking through the fields.Right up ahead was a small waterfall humming in tune with the birds. I smile at her as I pull the blanket out and lay it down for us to sit on. The calming peace coming from the fish jumping in the bed of water just below the falls. The wind causing
LizaIf you would have told me a few months ago I would be free from my personal hell and in love, I probably would have called you crazy. Yet here I stand with the man I love,yes I know it hasn’t been that long but when you know you know.It’s crazy how fast everything has went, but being with Alaric it feels right; like I am suppose to be here with him. Almost as if we are soulmates.Watching the fairies and sprites dancing around and glowing, almost like glitter coming all around us, is so amazing. Never in a million years would I have ever guessed that fairies were real. Let’s face it when Twilight came out, most the girls were either team Jacob or Edward; however I didn’t believe in vampires or werewolves.I always fantasized of being with someone that would fall head over heels in love with me, an
AlaricI am so glad she took this so well. I was so scared that I would lose her, or she would think I was crazy. Smiling as I remember her excitement while she flew on Draco's back.'See, I told you mate would love me more'Draco said laughing at me.'She said she loves us both, so hush you overgrown lizard'I replied jokingly.Now I sit here in the living room signing the final permits needed for work. I begin to think of something special to do for Liza. Also need to prepare our discussion about what mates are, how exactly we seal the mate bond, and what that would mean for her since she is a human. I was hoping we would have more time to get to know each other more before I had to tell her, but those damn wolves ruined everything.That’s it!! I am going to surprise her with a romantic candlelight dinner. I get up a
AlaricAs we sit by the fireplace, I keep thinking about how to explain what being fully mated will mean for her.“How about I give you a foot rub while we finish talking?” I ask trying to lighten the mood.“Sure. So if I chose to become fully mated, what will that mean exactly?”“Well, when we become fully mated you can choose to become just like me. Which means, you will get your very own dragon.”Her eyes almost pop out of her head, and I begin thinking she will reject me.“So, how dowe become fully mated?”“The first step is the marking in human form, and then following that with the mating ceremony. However..” I pause trying to analyze herreaction.“The final step is to mark each other in our dragon forms. The female dragon tak
I’minthewoods running when I smell her again. Thatscent is so alluring my wolf sped up trying to locate her. Just up ahead there she was.My dream angel. Her solid white fur, the purple swirls matching my own blue ones acontrast to the evergreen forest.She knowsI am here, she looks my way, then takes off.She enjoys the cat and mouse game as much asI do. I keep going until I almost get her. Thistime she doesn’t disappear. There is abeautiful woman standing there stroking herfur.“Hello Dominic. We have been waiting for you.”“Who are you? Whyare you both in my dreams?”“My child, I am Serene. I have heard your cries for a mate. One of your own. However, now is not the time todiscuss this. You must go back; you must save the missing females. Things are much worse than they appear! Call all the packs, spread the wo
Wedding DayLisa’s POVI still can’t believe we have to rush the wedding, but mostly because I have to mate in dragon form in front of everyone. Mom has added a few finishing touches to my dress magically of course. I keep staring at the woman in the mirror not recognizing her. I just wished my dad and brothers were here. Tears threaten to escape when Amanda starts shouting.“Oh no you don’t. Don’t you go ruin my master piece, or do you want to sit for another four hours redoing it all?” She huffed with her hands on her hips.Throwing my hands up in surrender I shake my head.“No way. Just thinking of dad.” I sadly admit.I had always though he would be the one to walk me down the isle. Dominic volunteered to in his place, but still it hurt knowing
Alaric’s POV I stand there amazed, and feeling a little guilty. If I had known they were still here I would have come back sooner. As the years went by I seemed to have forgotten this place existed. “Luna was a gift from my grandmother before she passed away. I was keeping her in this garden as it’s protector. When I found my mate, I had planned on gifting her on our wedding day. She would then lead my mate back to this garden.” I stated as I ran my fingers through her beautiful violet mane. “I am so sorry girl, I forgot to come visit. I didn’t know you were still here waiting.” I apologized rubbing her lovingly. These fairies have always been over the top. It warms my heart seeing all these beautiful creatures in perfect harmony. Liza is right, this is the perfect place for us. Just like the fairy Queen and her followers, the garden fairies began dancing arou
Liza's POVWe quickly made our way to Alaric’s study to meet with the guards.“Where did you locate the note?” Alaric asked them halfway through the door.“It was in the gardens. On the Queens favorite rose bush.” Replied the Captain.I was shocked, why that rose bush out of all the other’s? It us my favorite because it’s a baby blue rose bush, I planted in memory of my father and brothers.“What does the note say?” I asked, scared to hear it.Everything was seemingly perfect. We got the wedding date set, the perfect gown, and all that was left was the place. I had my hopes set on this wedding, but I couldn’t help the feeling something big was about to happen.“To the beautiful Queen,
Alaric’s POVWith everything that has been going on the search for the missing women, the project to keep Liza and other females safe, plus training Liza to defend herself we haven’t had time to prepare for the wedding. I have spent most of my days in the office speaking with the appointed council members, and today is no different.“We have to continue to keep our eyes open for the women of the shifter community. Firstly, the wolf shifters, as they are the only ones to report anyone missing. We must also pry the information from each of our own communities to make sure no one is left out. Some may be reluctant to come forward given the past reputation of the council. With that the meeting is adjourned we will meet back same time next week.” I finish concluding today’s meeting.“Oh, Amanda, can you stay behind a second? There is something I need t
Liza's POV“What does my father have to do with this? My father is dead.” I asked my mother confused.“I was hoping we would have had more time to discuss this. Liza it is time for you to know the truth. You, Alaric, and Dominic have already been through so much recently. I was waiting until the perfect timing, but now is better than any. We all need to discuss this, privately.” Morgana replied with a heavy sigh.We decided to head back to our castle since Dominic was there with Aero. The entire way back to the castle my mind was a complete mess. What does my father have to do with this? He is dead, isn’t he? The Army never found his body they just assumed he had blown up with his vehicle. I am so lost in my thoughts; I didn’t notice Alaric talking to me.“Huh? Sorry babe I was lost in my mind. How could my fathe
Alaric’s POV I have been in my office racking my brains. There haven’t been any reports of missing females for anyone. I wonder what she meant protect the females.“Alaric, sweet heart come to bed. You have been at this for hours now.” Liza groans.I was busy in thought and I didn’t respond. I could feel the exhaustion starting to take effect but we needed answers. I could feel Liza’s warm breath on my neck while she whispered in my ear.“If you come to bed, we can start trying for a sister. Poor Aero looks so lonely, and you have begged me to give you a daughter.”Well, that got my attention. With the wedding planning and every thing else, we hardly touched each other. Instantly jumping up, I chase my squealing mate to our bedroom. I walk into the room slowly unbuttoning my shirt, but when
Hello my lovelies, Please bear with me over the next few days. I will get updates soon. Today is the 1 year anniversary of my mother's murder and my children and I aren't handling it well. It is especially harder since the character Liza is inspired by my mother. Her fierce demeanor. Thank you for the votes and reviews. You guys helped me get 3rd place in the contest. We have a few more chapters before this story closes to an end. Don't worry, you will find out soon more about Dominic and Elizabeth. Book 2 in the series Baine Family: Love and War is out with few chapters until I complete this. Finally My own Love. Again thank you for your patience and I promise to update as soon as possible.
Dominic's POVI have been trying my best to spend some time with Elizabeth, but it seems she is always locked in her room. I don’t know what it is but my wolf is restless. So I decided to go for a run. Passing by the gardens, I see Alaric playing with his son. I go to approach when Elizabeth came into view, so like a pervert I watch in the shadows.“She seems to be fine to me, maybe her headache passed.” I thought to myself.Just as I was about to turn away Liza voice evaded my mind.“No time to explain. Alaric get the girl we found in the cells ready I am flying in with two wolves on my back. They are her parents. Dominic please meet me at the clinic’s entrance with little Aero. He can help calm them as well as yourself. Hurry.”I run up to Alaric grabbing my nephew from him w
