DEFYING FATE Chapter 32- Being a seer
"Let me help." Sophie gently cradled Wanna’s face, pushing some healing energy into the infant. Through the same link Sophie had just opened, Wanna’s pain traveled to her. "There." Drawing back, Sophie smiled at the baby, who tugged on her hair with a chuckle."What did you do?" There was no tension in Shenna, unlike the others, who had turned stiff as boards the moment Sophie had touched Wanna. Like she’d ever hurt a child."I took the pain away." Sophie cupped her own jaw then, wincing. "It really does hurt."Sage spoke then. "So, whenever you heal someone, their pain becomes yours?" His wolf didn’t like the idea of her being in pain."Yes, but it eases off pretty quickly." There. "It's already gone.""Thanks, doc," Shenna rose to her feet. "How about a tour, Sophie?" Shenna asked. Sage asked Shenna, "Can the tour wait till after lunch?" "I have some things to do this morning.""You don’t need to come with us." Shenna gently handed Wanna back to her mate."Sophie’s under my protec
DEFYING FATE Chapter 33- Scent
Sage finished his lunch and proceeded to Sophie's cabin, leaving the duo to argue as the rest of the pack chimed in here and there. He persuaded himself that it was just to check on her. That had nothing to do with the fact that his wolf was hassling him to accompany her to her abode. It had nothing to do with the fact that Sage wanted to see her.He rounded the lodge when his knock on the front door remained unanswered and found her reclining in the hammock, listening to her phone. Is it possible to tune out everything? Her fragrance entwined itself around him, causing his shaft to twitch."Everything okay?" she inquired, turning down the music.Since her T-shirt had ridden up a little, she flashed him a view of the swirly tattoo on her navel—no, it wasn’t okay at all. He found himself wanting to trace it with his tongue. "Shenna told me you plan to hole up here."Sophie sighed, "I figure that’ll make it easier for everyone."Sage knew it would be difficult for her. Werewolves were s
DEFYING FATE Chapter 34- Present Time
Present timeSavannah’s Pack Temple"What do you mean, stop Landon and Cherryl?" Sage grumbled. He wasn't sure what Sophie meant, but if she was seeing a vision, it had to be something he could believe in or simply ignore. In fact, he wasn't sure if he could trust this woman. For a reason, he despised seers.Sophie quipped and looked him in the eyes.She wished she could tell Sage what she saw for their future together, but would it ruin everything? Was she willing to put everything on the line? Was Sage now doubting her because she knew Sage and his patrol team despised seers for a cause?Sophie bit her lips before saying, "I know that Landon and Cherryl will run away today.""How are you sure about this, Sophie?""My visions were never wrong, Sage."He sighed.Could he trust this woman?What will happen if Landon—No! "This is not happening," he thought to himself.Was there some perversity in his DNA that made him want the things he could not have? And then, when forced to recogni
DEFYING FATE Chapter 35- Father and Son
"Beta Sage?" Sage turned to find one of his father’s councillors standing in the place that had moments earlier been occupied by his brother’s messenger. "The master alpha wishes to speak to you, Sage." Sage got to his feet. "Did he know?" The old man tipped his head. "And how is he?" "He is in the royal mansion. Um—angry… very." * * * * * The last occasion he had been summoned to the Master Alpha’s offices Sage had been left to cool his heels in an outer office for half an hour. On this occasion, the doors to his father’s rooms were open, and he was shown straight in. Sage struggled to contain his shock. The man had always worn his one hundred fifty years comfortably, and, other than the thickening around his middle and the grey showing in his neatly trimmed beard, he looked much as he had one hundred years ago, but he seemed to have aged visibly since the previous evening. Werewolves age slowly, but now, looking at his father, Sage sighed. "Landon—" "I no longer have a son
DEFYING FATE Chapter 36- Fight or Flight
The Master Alpha paused then breathed in heavily, "The elder council is briefing the press now. I want you to make an announcement to the guests, Sage. It is very important that we are on the same page to minimize the damage, so we will liaise with the Savannah's and smooth things over. Your stepmother is with them now, and then, after a decent interval, it can be announced that you and the girl, Sophie, have decided to get married.""Father—""Sage, the kingdom needs a savior; the people need someone to step up from your brother’s mess," the old man added. Sage looked at his father with knowing eyes. He was angry. More than furious. Sage might have consoled his father, but he knew better not to show concern. The angry ones create their own ghosts to chase, their delusions of who they were. So let them run; let them exhaust themselves. Ignoring them was the only sane response.Sage closed his eyes for a moment before saying, "I always knew you were ruthless, but the factor—does it act
DEFYING FATE Chapter 37- A demon?
So here they all were in the south chamber, and after half an hour, all the talk was going pretty much nowhere. Sophie looked at the clock ticking away in a corner, her eyes fixed on the hypnotic swing of the pendulum. She knew she should be feeling more; after all, she was the one who had been humiliated. Something she was not likely to forget as her mother kept screeching the information at her every few minutes. Where the hell are you, Cherryl? There were so many questions, her wolf was agitated. The beast was worried. Would anyone even notice if she weren’t here? Sophie unclipped the veil—a family heirloom—and dropped it to the floor. She would have stripped off her finery there and then if she could have, but then someone might notice she was there. A naked woman in the room generally got attention. As usual, she was nothing but a trophy, a decoration. They didn't even acknowledge her presence. She fought the temptation to tear at the massive, shimmering jewels that felt h
DEFYING FATE Chapter 38- Save by Sage
"Stop!" Sophie cried out as she summoned her wolf, but the beast wasn't listening.What on earth?She couldn't shift into her wolf?Why? The demon only snickered and kept coming, not breaking stride, moving like a predator corralling his prey. The darkness of the concluding shadows and the giant, misshapen trees crowding nearby loudly overwhelmed the gloaming air. Could anyone even hear her? Sophie paused, not wanting to go to extremes unless she had to. But what else could she do without her wolf?Could she fight a gigantic demon? Maybe, but for how long?With no choice, she had to fight it alone and die trying. With her werewolf strength, she wasn't just an ordinary woman. She had the advantages, but with this massive beast? She didn't think so.Her strength was being sucked out. She felt like a loser. A prey.Two blazing eyes stare at her with an immobilizing force, and another crash resonates from its fanged mouth in pure agony. A lush head of hair adorns its bony head, which it
DEFYING FATE Chapter 39- Rated PG
Why did you run so far from home, Sophie?" Sage murmured under his breath. What was he supposed to do now?The question was, would he be able to get her to share it?Finally, Sage couldn't help himself; this woman was like a fire, and even with its warmth, a moth-like him couldn't just stay put; awfully, he could feel his arousal. Dammit. This is crazy, Sage. So crazy yet tempting. He thought to himself.Sophie seemed to awaken as he heard her moaning, yet her eyes were still closed. Maybe she was dreaming?For hell's sake, she moans like a goddess too.Sage's hands burned a trail down to her shoulder. He murmured no sense of vulgarity against her flesh. Dammit, Sage. This is stupid.But he was lost. His wolf wanted to mark her. To have her. His wolf howled. Must have her. Must take her.Without warning, he lifted her legs and took the little underwear she was wearing; all common sense was lost when he took a whiff of her womanly scent. Bloody hell, she's that wet? How could she be
