She turned his head to face her, but he kept his eyes down. “They were jealous of the beautiful magical hours of long lovemaking I had with you.”

He raised his eyes and looked at her. “You are going to insist on sugar coating it, aren’t you?”

She huffed loudly. “You know, you’re driving me crazy.” She dropped her hand. “And another thing, what did you mean by ‘heard Steve’, you weren’t in the diner?”

He cleared his throat. “Yes, I was, you just didn’t see me.” His eyebrows creased, he bit the inside of his lower lip, glanced to his right and then stared back at Lee.

“No, you weren’t. My line of vision was only blocked when Steve jumped me, and thirty seconds later you appeared.” Lee watched him carefully, she was sure that was a telltale sign of him lying.

“How about we agree to disagree, just for tonight? We can continue this arg

    “Ouch!” The pinch in her shoulder woke her. She had rolled on it, again. Her comfy human pillow had left, and was replaced by the feather filled sacks. This was becoming a habit. The growl in her stomach was a perfect motivation to leave her room. The bed squawked, rocking slightly as her moved to the edge. She smiled—the bed should be a landmark. Ash’s hypnotic grin from last night popped in her head. She was sure the bed would get at least two votes.Immediately feeling the weight of the pendant, she took it off and put it in the shoe box for safe keeping then she headed to the kitchen to get something to eat, she was really hungry. Maria was on the table, her head hiding behind a gigantic anatomy textbook. She wanted to be a pediatrician. She wasn’t so sure though, she is so soft and sensitive; Lee didn’t think she could stomach it, but that never stopped her from supporting Maria. She was her sister, that’s what they did.&

    “Of course you do.” His expression changed immediately Maria flashed him her mean face. “But uh, we can’t take them back. They’re all already paid for.” Lee was shocked, what was she going to do with ten beds?“But I was only going to pick one! What was to happen to the other nine?” she said taking the catalogue back from him.He shrugged, “Your sisters were to pick one each if they wanted, and then you were to decide what was to happen to the rest.”It was getting more unbelievable by the second. Maria snatched the catalogue from Lee’s hand, she was excited, and she really wanted a new bed.Just then Ann appeared at the door with her signature attitude. “Get out of my way!” She yelled at the delivery guy and pushed him out of the way.“Hey!” he called back at her as he tried to get back his balance.“What!” she turned and shouted back

    “Billy, what did you do?” Joe walked in to the AA room, his phone close to his ear and his face scrunched up. Billy was on the couch with Ash, drinking beer, eating chips and watching football, the usual.“What?” his eyes still on the screen.Ash turned and looked at Joe. Joe held the phone out in their direction. Billy turned down the volume on the TV, and then turned his ear to the phone’s direction. Ash started laughing. Joe covered the mouthpiece. Maria was on the line, she was giving Joe an ear full for what Billy had done to Ann. Billy looked distressed now, he didn’t say a word.“You’ll pay for this,” Joe said with venom as he walked out the room, replacing the phone on his ear.Ash turned to Billy after Joe left. “Billy how could you! You rented a stranger’s apartment for one night,” the humor was gone from his voice.“I wasn’t going to bring her here!

    “No, it’s okay, it was time for a break any way.” She moved closer to him, turning so that he could have her injured arm.“Yeah, a break.” Ann rested her head on the open book and closed her eyes; Maria leaned back in her seat, one hand supporting her head, the other covering her eyes. “I can’t wait for summer.”Lee turned to look at him as he gently secured her arm in the sling. He looked glum, like something was wrong, “We have finals in two weeks,” she offered, searching his face, for another clue.“That’s good.” His face was still down, his expression unchanged.When he was done, she pushed him a few feet back. She wanted to find out what had changed his mood so suddenly. “Ash, what’s wrong?”“Where is your new bed?”“I didn’t take one.” She found it strange that the bed had gotten him into the foul mood he was in

    Billy was waiting for Ash at the door. When he arrived, Billy grabbed him in a bear hug. “Thanks Ash, what did you say to her!”“She called? That’s good. I told her it was inconvenient for us to bring them here, and that we would be getting an apartment close to them.” Ash walked into the AA room and sat next to Joe on the leather seat.“I already found one. I started looking the minute you left. I’m going to check it out tomorrow!” Billy sat down next to him and picked up his beer. He felt more relaxed now that his fight with Ann was defused.“How’s Lee?” Joe asked before he filled his mouth with a hand full of popcorn, his eyes glued to the game on TV.Ash smiled, warmth spread through him at the mention of her name. He loved everything about her and how happy she made him feel. He saw her as a gift; a blessing the spirits had given him to fill the empty space in his heart. In such a shor

  • Fated Mate   Why Don't You Trust Me?

    Lee’s new sleeping habit had disrupted her whole day’s schedule, and to make things worse, she still spent her mornings with her head over the toilet. For some reason, she still slept half the day away, and with only a week left, she had to spend every waking minute studying, leaving no time for a social life or work. Ann thought the meds were still in her system; Maria however wanted her to go to the hospital for a checkup, which she took every opportunity to avoid. Ash tried to make her go but she always stopped him with questions about the diner.“Lee, please go to the hospital and get checked out.”“I’ll go if you tell me about the diner.”“I can’t do that.”“Then I won’t go.”That always made him guilty, he felt responsible for Lee’s stubbornness and therefore her sickness. As much as she hated hurting him she was determined on riding his guilty conscious until

    They were on the couch, the pain in her shoulder had died down after a few hours, but the other was still there. She was regretting that she had thrown the meds away. They would have numbed more than just her arm. Her eyes were swollen and red. She had been crying for a while, regretting her decision, she wanted him back, whether or not he wanted to trust her, she didn’t care anymore, he loved her and she loved him, the rest could all go to hell. She opened her eyes and looked at Maria.“I gave him an ultimatum.” The word felt like hot coal on her tongue.“What do you mean?” Maria stroked her hair back and wiped the fresh flow of tears from her cheek.“I’ve been sharing a bed with a stranger, and I couldn’t do it anymore. Though right now, I couldn’t care less what or who he is. I just want him back.” Lee could feel a sob creep up her throat.“Is that why he threw the chair into our T

  • Fated Mate   So Beautiful

    Dave was on the rooftop opposite Lee’s building. He could see into her house. He had been at that spot since she moved into the building. Ash’s fight with Lee had him on night duty again. He sat there, contemplating Ash’s decision. He wasn’t ready to tell her, he was worried about her reaction. He was scared she would hate him for staying away, for letting her suffer foster care when he could have looked after her. How was he going to explain himself? There was no good excuse for abandoning her. But he wanted to hold her again, talk to her, comfort her when she was sad, and laugh with her when she was happy. He wanted to be with her, he wanted to stop hiding. All he had to do was build up the courage to do it. **** It had been a week since Ash left, since Lee’s visit from the mysterious woman. She felt embarrassed, angry. Ash had a girlfriend, that’s why he was never fully hers. The thought broke her heart all over again. She should have known. If Steve had a girl on the side why sh

  • Fated Mate   Merilee Run!

    It was dark when Dave pulled the car into his driveway and the moon shone brighter than the streetlights. The vacation seemed so short, but he was more relaxed than he was three weeks ago. He had enjoyed the time he had spent with his family. It showed him exactly how much he loved them and wouldn’t want to be without them. The kids wanted to stay longer, but he had to get back to work. “We are home,” Dave announced to his family. Jayson jumped out of the car, Martha followed suit with Alice in her arms. Merilee had fallen asleep and didn’t seem to be waking up anytime soon. “Honey, wake up we’re home,” Dave whispered as he nudged her gently to wake up, instead she lay flat on her belly in the vacant back seat. She looked so sweet and peaceful, deep in her slumber. But he knew better, Merilee was just pretending so that he could carry her in. There was no other choice but to submit to the little princess, then come back and get the bags. Before he could step out of his car, he heard

    Baku threw things around. He felt caged and that made him anxious and uncontrollable. Soon he’d be taking his frustration out on his pack.“I can’t keep hiding out like a rat. We need to get rid of him now! Seth! Why is Cole taking so long! All I did was ask him to kill a family of weak humans, how hard can that be!”Seth smiled. He was unmoved by Baku’s erratic behavior. “The humans will be back from their vacation tomorrow. They will be dead by the next morning. I thought you would want to kill two birds with one stone, so I set a trap for Ash—” Before he could finish telling his master plan, Baku interrupted him with an air of arrogance and a hint of mockery in his voice.“Thinking and strategizing is my forte. Let’s face it, it’s not your strongest suit, but there is a first time for everything, continue.”Seth clenched his jaw and fisted his hands tightly. Baku ignored his frigid

    Ash, Joe and Billy got out of the car and walked up the driveway of the cream-colored house with red and white roses bordering the path. Joe had tracked them here, to Dave’s house.Billy reached to ring the doorbell when Ash stopped him. “Don’t bother no one's home. They left; I hope for good.” Ash was relieved. He could now go back to hunting Baku without worrying about the humans. “Let’s go. We have a bigger fish to fry.”“Ash, could we get some pizza on the way?” Joe said sounding relaxed, “Too bad we can’t go back to that place, the sauce smelled pretty good.”Ash turned and looked at him, a perplexed look on his face. “What?”“Only Joe can think of food at the oddest of times,” Billy said flatly as he walked back to the car.“Joe, when I first met you, you were a pretty serious guy, what happened?” Ash asked Joe who was staring at him wi

  • Fated Mate   Big Doggie

    Dave paused before he answered and looked around suspiciously. He panicked when he turned to see two huge, over six feet tall, guys standing between him and the door. Terror tagged at him knowing his family was on the other side of the door. He hoped they hadn’t seen them.“Take what you want from me just let me walk out of here.” He extended the hand that had the blackberry in it to Joe.“We don’t want your money,” Joe pushed Dave’s hand away.Before Dave could speak again, Joe picked him up by the collar and threw him behind the counter. He hit the floor hard on his side. Blood trickled from the cut on his head where it had met with the corner of the counter. He was dazed and confused. He stumbled a bit on his knees as his head was spinning. Before he could stand up, the door opened, and three pairs of footsteps walked in.“Hi Ash, Baku has a message for you.”“What’s that?”

    “Sabrina, that’s enough.” Ashat shoved her off him. He pulled on his pants and got out of bed to get another beer.“Are you sure?” she asked, using her horny voice. She was now seated on the bed, naked. She rubbed her right foot slow and seductively over her left leg, as her fingers played with her long hair.If you are trying to seduce me, you’ll have to try harder.Her face dropped and then suddenly turned red in a rage. She growled at him and in a huff pulled the sheet to cover herself.“I may love you but that doesn’t give you the right to treat me like a whore! You shouldn’t have bit me if you wanted to dispose of me once you grew tired of me!”Well, that was your profession. Biting you was a mistake, a huge one. He shrugged. I guess I was hungrier than I thought. Then the familiar pain settled over him. I only love one person, and you are no

  • Fated Mate   How They Met

    “Guys, breakfast is ready!” Martha shouted from the bottom of the steps. Her husband, Dave, walked into the kitchen holding Alice and placed her in her chair before he took his seat at the table. “I’m going to count to three. One, two…” Dave chuckled when two doors slammed shut as Jayson and Merilee came racing down the steps. He always wondered what would come after two, but Martha always got them to do what she wanted before she reached the dreaded three. Dave looked around the table at his family and smiled. They were a close nit African family. He and Martha had gotten married young and moved to America when Dave got a job immediately after he finished varsity. They were happy and had three beautiful children to show for it. Jayson ten, Merilee five, and Alice had just turned three. They had made it a point to have their meals together. Dave worked round the clock to pay off the house loan. The extra hours and the normal workload kept him very busy and left little time to spen

    The cold droplets on Lee’s face woke her up. She lifted her hands to cover her face before she opened her eyes. Ash was standing over her, his head bent down shaking his wet hair over her.“Ash what are you doing?” She turned, hiding her face in the pillow, but the water droplets were now on her neck. She couldn’t help but laugh at his silliness. “Ash, will you stop that!” The drops stopped, but she stayed as she was, just in case it was a trick.“If you don’t turn, I’ll pour a whole bucket on you.” His voice was full of laughter. She turned to look at him. He wasn’t pale anymore. His earthshaking smile dominated his face, his eyes reflected his happiness. He was shirtless and still wet, in black flannel pants.“You look better, healthier.”“You don’t look too bad yourself, especially in my shirt.” He tugged at the edge of his light blue, long-sleeved shirt.

    She felt a sharp pain in her inner lip, and then she could taste fresh blood on her tongue. Ash flicked his tongue on the spot, and then he sucked deeply. It hurt but she didn’t move neither did she stop him. He was hungry and for some insane reason she didn’t mind him feeding off her.She heard Billy and Joe hiss behind her. She opened the hand behind her back, cautioning them not to come near them. A deep angry growl rocked the room. It startled everyone, even Ash. That had to be Billy.Ash pulled away, for a moment she saw his eyes flash golden yellow and his face had desire all over it then they were back to brown and he had disgust in his face. “I’m so sorry.” He pulled at her legs, trying to unwind them around his waist but she only tightened the lock.“Stop that. I was just stuffing myself with some steak, would you like some? There is only one left.” Her lips throbbed. She passed her tongue over the long cut he h

    They heard a stir, and then a grumble. They all looked toward the door, waiting. The next minute they heard a glass shatter and an enraged growl. Billy sprang out of his seat and stood in front of the door, Joe flashed beside him, blocking the girls’ way.“Where is she?” Ash gave a loud roar from the living room. It made the guys stiffen. The last time she saw them so alert was at the diner. Surely Ash wasn’t going to go on a rampage?“Ash is awake,” Maria spoke above a whisper.“Is he going to turn into a wolf again because he really sounds mad scary?” Ann looped her hand with Maria’s. She sounded scared. The girl who was hitting out on the drunk wasn’t so courageous now that the drunk was awake.There was a loud break then a crash from upstairs. “Where is she?” Ash’s temper was mounting.Lee was wrong he was already on a rampage. He was taking out his frustration on the furniture. Her sisters looked more frightened.She put her fork and knife down and reluctantly pulled away from he
