I’m so upset and angry right now I want to cross the borders and confront Chase myself but I know that will start a war we aren’t fully prepared for right now. My wolf stands over destins body in a protective way she won’t let anyone near him. The ambulance has arrived to take him to the pack hospital to check him over but my wolf won’t let the paramedics near him. Colton slowly approach’s my wolf with his hands out. “He needs to be checked over give faith back control she” snarls at Colton before taking off she runs past the pack house through the field and into the base I’m worried she is trying to find chase the last thing I need is my wolf initiating a war. Chase is sitting on the other side of the stream skipping rocks he looks like his in pain. My wolf growls at him but he doesn’t bother to look up he keeps throwing rocks. “Give faith control back” He speaks to my wolf and surprisingly my wolf gives me back full control. I find the clothes I had stashed behind a tree in case
My wolf runs into the field behind the pack house I’m feeling sad for Destin for the situation Colton and I are in and if I’m being honest with myself I don’t know how to navigate our situation we are in too deep but I don’t want him rejecting anyone should we not be mates. We need some distance right now to figure this out and I refuse to lay down and let life get the better of me so I run towards the training grounds and shift I’m going to remain focused and not let my personal life become the downfall of the pack. I find some spare training clothes we keep in the gym that’s currently shut but I need something to take my frustration and emotions out on so I’m going to hit the boxing bag for a while. I hear the door to the gym open but I keep my focus trained on the bag in front of me unforgiving when I land blow after blow. “Wow princess look at them gains” “When did you get out of hospital” “Just now I had to find you dad told me what happened what a train wreck” “Guess it was
The beta and his cronies carry out a limp Colton from my room when the beta leaves he gives me pained smile it must be hard for him to have to do that to his own son. I feel shattered and broken I don’t want to lose Colton but I know it’s for the best. I mindlink my dad asking how the order for the tourmaline is coming along and if the new blood training regime has been sent out to the super natural fractions. He replies shipments should be in with in a few days and all fractions have received the training regime and are also training their people based off their strengths. With that been said I’m tired and hit the bed I cry myself to sleep. I’m woken around lunch time by Destin walking into my room he wastes no time pulling the blankets off. “Up now you’ve had enough time to process and feel your emotions now get up stop feeling sorry for yourself and boss up we’ve got shit to do today” I groan at his enthusiasm I don’t want to wallow in my own self pity so I pull myself up out of
It’s been weeks now since I’ve seen Colton it hurts less and less each day but I do miss him terribly the annual ball is in three weeks so I’ve been throwing myself into pack affairs, training and the ball preparations. The ball is three weeks away from now it falls on my birthday today the girls and I have decided to head into town to find our dresses before we are left with the fugly left overs it won’t be easy picking something since we choose an all white theme. It’s six in the morning so I sprung up to have a shower and dress for the day. I get out the shower as I come out towel drying my hair the familiar scent hits me along with a mix of emotions. Colton’s sitting on my bed looking depleted I want to run to him and throw my arms around him and let him know how much I have missed his presence but i hold back and opt for a cool and casual “hey” while I mentally cringe at myself. He snaps his neck to face me and his face drops I can see the pain his in and can’t comfort him and it
“Wow princess I always knew you were firey didn’t expect you to be an actual firecracker” “Fuck off chase you are the last person walking this earth surface I want to talk to” Chase is standing in front of me with in a blink of the eye his fast for sure I will give him that. “Watch how you talk to me faith”His eyes flashing between the dark brown and black I can see the internal struggle with in.“Watch how I talk to you. You cause nothing but destruction despair and death where ever you go”He get right into my face at this point heaving for the first time I actually feel intimated by chase. “Is that so is it”“YES .. there’s no one I hate more than you right now”He slings the suit bag his been holding the entire time over his shoulder turns and walks away from me. I pull my phone out and quickly get back to what I was doing before being interrupted. Delilah answers my call on the third ring. She says she will meet me outside the restaurant we ate lunch at earlier today. I make
Todays the day Leon comes to meet Delilah’s coven for the first time I watch as she runs around her room pulling clothes out and throwing them across the room looking for something to wear. I laugh at the anxious mess she has become she is usually the placid calm best advice giving old soul no matter the company and it brings me joy knowing she does have emotions deep down under her cool calm demeanour. “Stop and take a seat you are running around like a headless chicken as amusing as it is I think I will take over from here” She sighs and throws herself backwards onto her bed taking deep breaths in and out. “So I take it you want that boss lady witch bitch graceful vibe for tonight?” “Something like that” Go go through her clothes before I spot the dress I know she will feel both confident and comfy in. I take out the red velvet and lace dress I spin around to show her my pick and she nods her head. “You should have taken over half an hour ago. I have never felt so excited and
This can’t be happening! I’m pacing the bathroom completely unaware of destins presence. “Are you going to burn holes in the bottom of your shoes pacing or are you going to fill your beta in on the situation” I say nothing and hand Destin the note with a warning look like don’t even question me right now regarding Chase. “Um okay what do you plan to do with this information it’s not like you can show our alpha you have been talking to the enemies pup he will probably lock you up until you become of age and find your mate” “We need the numbers on the borders so we have to tell him something I don’t like keeping secrets from my parents Destin but we can’t not do anything”“Maybe we could say one of the seers had a premonition or Delilah’s mate had the intel. Wait how did you receive this from chase?”“Annie Delilah’s mates sister. But that’s not all she had to say this is the least of our worries!” “HOW could this be the least of our worries? What could be worse than an attack on t
The pack and coven members are allowed out the bunkers the warriors have been stood down from their posts but we have increased the numbers on patrol. The protective barriers seem to be working nicely so all scouts and patrols are to remain with in the barrier. Once everything has been sorted I meet Delilah at her cottage with Destin in tow. “So what’s the plan Stan. Did you get hold of the witchy poo you needed too” There was a cough that came from the side of the room. Oh snap I didn’t notice the man sitting in the chair in the corner. Destin laughs as he corrects me “I think you mean the warlocky poo. I’m Destin”He puts his hand out to introduce himself to the stranger in the corner. He nods his head in acknowledgement as he takes destins out reached hand. “Simons the name and yes I am to one your friend here was referring too” He glances in my direction and I feel my cheeks heat with embarrassment. “Sorry about that Simon I’m faith nice to meet you” “Oh I know who you are fa
Leaving Delilah and Leon behind to work through their problems chase and I make our way back to our room. We walk hand in hand in a comfortable silence chase keeps stealing glance at me until I stop and turn to face him. “Spill it I can sense your anxiety through the bond” Chase closes the distance between us and takes me in his arms burrowing his face into my neck and inhaling my scent as he mumbles“Today helping Leon process everything it made me realise that I never want to lose you through differences I want you by my side even on the hardest of days and I would never leave you on your hard days promise me we will get through everything together and I will cut ties with my pack to allow you to go through the alpha initiation and take your rightful place” I look deep into his eyes for any hint of doubt but find nothing but confidence in his words.“I don’t want to deny you your rightful place as alpha of the obsidian pack so I propose we both take the title of alpha in my pack
Delilah ~Leon was in a fit of rage the energy he is emitting is so powerful if I weren’t Leon’s intertwined I’m sure I would have passed out five minutes ago. “You knew Delilah and you didn’t think to tell me. Some intertwined you are if you can keep such a big thing from me what else could you hide from me? Do you have anymore skeletons in your closet because now is the time to lay everything on the table I don’t know if I could handle anymore deception from you” “Leon please calm down. I had your best interests at heart I only wanted to protect you from the truth until the time was right we weren’t doing it with malice” “I’m half fucking demon Delilah half demon I’m a monster” Leon dropped to his knees on the floor in his desperate vulnerable state i cautiously walk to his side rubbing circles on his back and softly whisper.“You’re no monster Leon far from it you may be demon by blood but you are pure of heart. I’m sorry I did not tell you sooner I however don’t regret my deci
After we question leon further to see if we can get any information he may not have recollected or deemed important chase, Conrad, Delilah and I look between each other I give Delilah a look and the witch bitch understands my unspoken question shaking her head and looking down I know she is not the one who wants to break Leon’s lineage to him. I give chases hand a squeeze under the table confirming he is the one to break it to leon. Chase clears his throat and looks at leon I can tell this is hard for him after all he was the one who smuggled Nikki and Leon out of the cells in the obsidian pack and gave them a new life. “I have something to tell you leon and it’s not going to be easy for me to say I want you to know you are a good friend and what I’m going to say may not be easy to hear but I done at the time what I thought was in your best interest and it’s time I speak your truth you deserve to know who you are”Leon cocks his head to the side clearly unsure about what chase is say
Chase and I make our way down to the coven and stop abruptly when we see a group of coven members preforming a protection spell around Delilah and Leon’s cottage we both know better than to interrupt the ritual so we take a few steps back so not to interrupt the energy field they are using. It’s not long before Marisha and Conrad come walking over hand in hand. “What in the hocus pocus is going on here” Marisha visibly rolls her eyes.“You are so uncultured for a supernatural species with having a close alliance with dark mages you are clueless” “Excuse me for not being an expert on ouija boards. Is anyone going to answer my question what the fuck is that shit it looks hectic” “A protection spell. It creates a barrier dark forces or anyone wishing ill can not penetrate the spell preformed by some of the countries strongest witches and wizards nothing could get past their threshold” “Challenge accepted” Marisha slaps Conrad in the chest while shaking her head. Conrad gives her a
I open my eyes and I’m surrounded by darkness I’m floating on the nothingness that surrounds me I can feel the cold on my skin and nothing else. As I start to feel the desperate whispers of what I can only assume are tortured souls the darkness eloping me drowning me in the pit of others despairs I feel it crawling on my skin. In the distance I can see a speck of a bright white light as if a beckon it’s warmth calls to me I don’t know how I know but I know I must reach the light or succumb to the dark void I feel surrounding me. I start to drift in the direction of the bright light but it seems forever out of my reach. I frantically start to swim in the nothingness desperate to reach the warm embrace of the light. I finally find my way to the light when an ethereal aura appears swirling through the light a golden aura swirling through the light I can feel a presence with in the golden hue but no embodiment appears. “Faith both you and chase have finally completed your destined bond b
We are all back in my office now including Marisha and Conrad I guess they are now very much apart of the inner circle. Everyone is seated around my rectangular mahogany desk waiting for the kitchen staff to bring up some snacks so we can get started. One of the kitchen staff bring in a silver trolley full of assorted sandwiches, fruits, nuts, petite desserts bottles of water and cans of soda she lays it out on the table. Conrad reaches over and takes a sandwich shovelling it into his mouth he reaches for another when Marisha slaps his hand and reminds him about table manners. Chase rolls his eyes at this gesture. “His a bloody demon he knows nothing about table manners let the man eat” Conrad sends a wink chases way and it gives me a brilliant idea. So far we have decided Destin alone will be my beta and we will hold trials for the gamma position who ever wins will take the gamma title. Delilah has stated her coven have all agreed they no longer want to rebuild their old coven and h
Now that everyone is here I turn to Karla she is surprised she was the first one I turned to in a pack crisis I guess she thought I invited her along to the meeting because of Destin. “Karla you have more of an understanding of chase then anyone here. How would you see him taking on the role of alpha to both packs”“Thats something you and chase need to discuss faith have you seriously called us all here to help you convince your mate to do as you wish?”“You have me all wrong Karla. Yes I do need some assistance from my beta because this while it involves my mate is a pack matter and I’m not a dictator and thought your input would be highly valuable and well I never do much with out Delilah now Leon too and I just so happened to bump in Marisha and Conrad no offence guys you are welcome here on the contrary. Yes it is between chase and I but it also involves our pack and I value your opinion Karla you know him better than I do I want to meet him half way”“Maybe you should be having
I appreciate my father and everyone who came here to explain what has happened to chase but I do not wish to be standing outside chases room I want to be by his side. I let everyone know I will be going back to chases side and will call a meeting with the vampire elders myself and chase when he wakes and is in good health to do so. Surprisingly everyone is so understanding and gives their well wishes to chase. I walk into the room and study his features as he lays there in a deep sleep. I step towards the bed and notice chases scent has slightly changed and I feel the pull to him tenfold. I lift the covers and slide into the bed next to him curling into chase while intertwining our hands. I don’t know when but I drift off into a peaceful sleep. I do not know where I am but it’s complete chaos there’s dead bodies littering the ground of all species the skies are dark grey and alpha Charles stands in front of me with a victorious grin. I look around my surroundings for any clue as to w
“You should know princess since I’ve accepted my fate as the child of light I have increased strength and powers and I do not plan to show your lover boy any form of mercy just so you know” Colton mindlinks looking directly at me and smirks at me with a shit eating grin. “So be it Colton I have believe in my MATE and I’m sure he can handle himself against you may the best man win”“Mate? I don’t see a mark on either of your necks but once I’ve finished him off I’m sure I could put one on your neck for you” I don’t know what it was about Colton’s words that had an ominous feeling rush through me. Like there was some hidden message within his words. I know chase can handle himself but I plan to hang around closely something is not sitting right with me and my intuition is always dead on. Both Colton and chase take their stances the gamma calls for a clean fair fight may the best win. Chase puts his hand out to Colton in good gestures before they fight but Colton refuses to shake his
