Six

Carter-

“Dude that was intense” Quinn says letting out a heavy breath and running his hand through his hair.

“Get someone in her to replace all the cracked mirrors and windows and have them install the thinker glass in her room please” Peter gives me a yes alpha and a nod then leaves the house.

“Marshel said he was walking by when she started screaming and it knocked him off his feet” Hannah says with a worried look on her face.

“I don’t think she knew she was doing it” Quinn says as he sits on the arm of the couch. “I don’t think she did either” I say in agreement.

They start to ask me questions I have no answer to and walk back to my office not wanting to be questioned any longer.

There on my desk sits the file I had been looking though hours ago and I remember I had been looking at the records of her mothers death and walk over to my desk and pick said paper up and read it.

The report leaves me confused further and needing answers, picking my chair up I slide into it and roll back to my desk and continue to go thought the file, one paper at a time.

A soft knock sound on my office door a little after midnight and by the intoxicating mouth watering scent of my mate wafts thought he crack I the door “Come it” I call to her. The door slowly cracks open reveling her stunning mismatched steel gray and green eyes looing directly at me. “I uh” she starts but stays in the doorway “I wanted to talk” she hostility says and I motion her into the room.

She comes to stand in front of my desk with her head down and her eyes downcast, not making any sort of eye contact with me. Slowly I rise to my feet and walk around my desk until I’m standing in front of her. Raising my hand out towards her she flinches and I hesitate for a second before slowly reaching further out until I take her chin in my fingers and slowly and softly raise her face until her gaze locks with mine.

“Don’t every hide those beautiful eyes from me” I whisper wanting so badly to kiss her soft looking full lips. “You are my mate and I want to see your gorgeous face at all times” I continue.

She swallows hard her eyes still locked on mine when I see a flicker of something pass though then and I so badly want to know what it was. Leaning further towards her I gently rest my forehead to her and say “I will help you heal if you give me a chance” a lone tear slides down her cheek, glistening a gold shimmer and I pull my head away from hers and watch as it slides down he cheek leaving a shimmering gold streak in its wake.

With slow movements so I don’t scare her I raise my hand and whip her tear with my finger, she gasps as we both look at it and she whips at her face then looks at her hands checking for more.

‘Doc come to my office now’ I say though mind-link.

Instantly the doc is knocking on my open office door and I motion her to come forward. The tear has started to dry on my figure when I raise my hand to her and say “Her tears are gold” doc looks between my hand and Ferrah’s face brown pulled tightly together as her eyes flicker back and forth.

“Your Marias and Marcus’s daughter” she says more as a question then a statement.

“yes” Ferrah answers.

Karines face turns form confusion to shock in a matter of second and what she says send a whole new wave of confusion crashing into me full force. “You’re the last living queen Fae”

“What” I say shocked as I step back from Ferrah and take her in better, her soft features and small frame. Mismatched battling eyes and unusual hair color for our kind. The power of the scream that she admitted and the force that kept me for reaching her faster all makes since.

The fae royalty had all but become a myth in the realms of creatures around the world. So few fae still existed and those that did stayed hidden from the world because they were used for evil back before the moon goddess stepped in to stop the slaughter among the creatures. Fae’s much like casters were captured and used as a pawn in battel for their skills in casting powerful spells and using the elements to will wars.

Karine starts to pace the length of my office murmuring to herself as she dose so, only stopping every so often to look at my mate then starts pacing again.

Cole is rambling on in my head and asking me a million question so I block him out because I cant deal with his over baring questions and my own at the same time.

“Alpha you have to do every thing you can to keep her safe and hidden” Karine finally says using my title making it even more apparent that this is serious “If she truly is the last fae queen that would explain why she hasn’t shifted yet and has” she turn to look at my mate with a apologetic smile “It explains why she’s gone into heat but hasn’t shifted” the revelation has me shocked and I look down on my mate who’s gaze has once again turned back to the marble floor. “Only once she’s fully mated and marked will her true faze be revealed” Karine once again turns to Ferrah and come over to her and sets her down to crouch down in front of her.

“I understand that you’ve been through so much horrible pain and so many inexcusable thing but you need to listen to me” she softly tells her “I was a good friend of your mothers and only now that I’m truly getting a good look at you do I see her in you.” Karine cups Ferrah’s face in her hands and continues “You need to mate Ferrah, you need to allow him to mark you. It’s the only way to truly make sure your safe”

“Safe from what” my mate ask as she looks up at me.

I swallow thickly as I say “Safe from the dark ones”
