Chapter 22 - Hannah
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56I could tell Theo was hurt by me asking him to give Gave control and that bothered me. That’s why I asked Gabe to let me try to talk to him. I knew Theo was hiding somewhere because his emotions were a bit subtle. A far step from the horny little shit fighting Gabe for control. As I held Gabe close, I thought of everything that has ever brought me comfort.
Floating in the river on a hot summer day, the smell of cookies baking when I got home from school, laying my head on Gabe’s chest listening to his heartbeat. I let all of these memories fill my spirit, overflowing I shared the warmth and comfort with Gabe and Theo. When I could feel Theo’s presence had grown stronger, I apologized to him. As strange as it might sound, I need Theo too. To have one without the other would be wrong, unnatural.
I never believed that there was such a thing as good sex. I always thought someone talking abo

Hannah Chapter 23 - Julie and Greg
“Auntie Julie”, she cried with tears threatening to spill from her bright eyes. “I don’t want to go to that school anymore!” Julie made the monumental decision to be the guardian of her late sister Mara’s beautiful daughter when she died shortly after giving birth to Hannah. Being a mother isn’t easy, even for a normal child and Julie knew this. The problem was that Hannah wasn’t a normal child, and Julie learned when Hannah was very young that she had a strange ability to just know things.As crazy as it sounds, Julie wondered if Hannah was an old soul on some grand adventure coming back again and again trying to resolve some un finished business. She didn’t believe in reincarnation, but there was no doubt that at the very least, Hannah had psychic abilities. “Why not sweetie?”, she asked Hannah as she swooped her up into her arms and sat down on the couch with her in
Hannah Chapter 24 - Julie and Greg
Greg came in to her life when he brought his sister in law to the clinic for her monthly check up. She didn’t think anything of him at first. She thought he was married to the women he came in with. Hannah was six months old, and Julie proudly hung a picture of her on her desk in the reception area. “Cute baby” he told her looking right into her green eyes. She felt flustered at the intensity of his gaze but politely thanked him and asked if he was excited to meet his own little one. The woman with him burst out laughing when he looked at Julie with a puzzled expression.“Jeez Greg! Leave it to you to hit on someone at the prenatal clinic!” the woman beside him said. “He's my brother in law sweetie, my husband is out of town and Casanova here insisted on bringing me to my appointment. He’s a gentleman I promise.” She managed to choke out through her laughter. “oh lord!,

With everyone in the pack house, I decided that it would be best if I closed myself from everyone’s emotions until I was more comfortable. This is something that I do when I anticipate being in a large group setting. I will start being completely closed off, and then person by person I will open up. Sometimes a person’s emotions are so strong that the intensity is overwhelming.Usually it depends on the context and is entirely circumstantial. Its like when youre listening to the radio and a commercial comes on. The volume seems to have raised significantly, or if you’re watching a movie when the action scene seems much louder than the more somber scene. Dealing with human emotion and the presence of so many, it can be a lot to deal with. The complete absence of emotions assaulting my brain can be helpful when I need to relax, so I decided to wait a while before feeling everyone out.As everyone sta
Hannah Chapter 26 - Gabriel
As Hannah looked around the table at our lively group I wondered if her abilities were overwhelming her. She seemed to be looking at everyone intently. Maybe she is trying to sort through everyone’s emotions, I reasoned with myself. ‘Gabe, listen to her heart rate. It seems different like when she first saw us.’ Theo said. What does that mean? Honestly, I was too preoccupied with the beautiful woman standing in front of me to pay attention to her heart rate. Obviously, Theo wasn’t.‘Her heart rate is always stronger when she looks at us, but when she saw us the first time it was different. Like it skipped a beat synchronizing with ours.’ As he told me this I listened for her heart and heard what he was talking about. As she looked around, first at David and Alicia, then Melissa and Marcus, a slight jump in her heart rate, barely noticeable. ‘It did the same thing

“Christine, I gotta run over to Gabe’s real quick and grab my phone.” I shouted through the kitchen as I made my way to the door. She was getting the rest of the kids in bed. Most of them had settled, so I felt she and Alicia had it covered. I was walking back to the pack house with my phone when Lily came crashing through my thoughts in a panic, ‘Hannah run!’, but it was too late.The first one came bursting out to the woods on the eastern side of the pack house and ran towards the huge window that looked out from the living room. I thought that for sure the glass would shatter from the sheer size of the matted and filthy wolf running at full speed, but it only bounced off with a yelp before its lifeless body fell to the porch. I knew it was dead because I opened my mind and all I felt coming from it was an emptiness. Not the thrum and hazy fog of unconsciousness.It’s comrades thought

The wolves served their purpose. Too my surprise they made my job much easier, though I am certain that they did that inadvertently. Hidden in the woods just out of sight I watched the interaction between my target and the distractions I hired to assist with my task. She spoke to the nomads, a plea not for her own life which caught me off guard. There was an honesty in her, as if she was truly trying to protect them from something. Obviously, she doesn’t know what these creatures are capable of.I watched from the cover of the trees as the energy pulsed into her. What began as a gentle pull from the environment around her slowly built, the apex reached heights even someone like myself couldn’t have imagined in my wildest dreams. I must admit, it was terrifying. I’m no stranger to the terrible things that most people don’t know exist. Hell, I’m one of them. In that moment, this woma

I finally started coming back to reality, and I can tell that it is still dark outside. My eyes flutter open and I don’t recognize my surroundings. Super. The room I am in is small, but it looks like it belongs to a teenage girl. Posters are hung on the wall, a small desk across from the bed I am on has books stacked on one side, and papers scattered over the top. The smell of dust and time fills my senses and there are big wooden block letters hanging on the door telling me that I am in Mara’s room.“You’ve GOT to be kidding me.” I say to myself knowing exactly where I am, but I don’t have any idea how I got here. I jump out of the bed and storm toward the door. I go to wretch it open, I’m angry, but its locked. I move to go out of the window and discover that they have bars installed on them now. Who the fuck does this woman think she is? She has got a lot of nerve.&n
Hannah Chapter 30 - Hannah
Detective Small, I learned while in Dallas, is nothing short of a psychopath. His partner Detective Ryan was a good person who put trust in him as her partner, and it got her killed. His talent for pinning murders on members of society he deems to be unworthy was horrifying. I approached Detective Ryan with some information and hoped that she would take it seriously.I’m guessing she shared the information I provided her with him, because the next morning I discovered that she had been killed in what seemed to be a tragic accident. I suspected that it was Small that had been corrupt but I wasn’t sure. I knew there must have been something in the information that connected him to the crimes, and Detective Ryan must have figured it out.My contact found evidence that someone in their department was doctoring reports, intimidating, and killing witnesses, and a laundry list of things to get a false conviction on several cases

Hannah Chapter 32 - Shailyn
I fought like hell to get back to my family, but the lengths my cruel father-in-law was willing to go to, just to make me disappear were more than I could overcome. Old magic, ancient and pure was the only thing that saved my son and me that day. I learned much about myself while I was away from my family. The timing of my birth was used as a distraction to overthrow my father, one of the great fae Kings. My mother, father, and three older siblings were murdered by an uncle who coveted my father’s position. If it were not for the actions of a brave young maiden named Charlotte who took me and switched me with a human child who had been still born, I would have also been killed that day. In retrospect, growing up I always knew there was something wrong about the people that I knew as my parents. Curiosity got the best of me when I was a fourteen, sneaking into the file room during one of her many doctors’ visits I wasn’t
Hannah Chapter 31 - Mr. Grayson
When he senses my presence, I see his certainty that I am a threat to his mate. It is evident in his fight to maintain control of his wolf. When I tell him that I don’t intend any harm to his mate I am being sincere. I imagine that he believes that I am taunting him, but I have other things in mind for her. She believes that I am telling the truth and told him such. She is right there are more pressing matters than some basic hunger that her blood ignites in the very nature of a vampire, and I have walked the earth nearly two centuries. I suppose I can’t blame him for his own instinct to protect her. The history of the relationship between our species’ is at best volatile. I watch as she does her best to calm him, and I have to say that I am in awe at her strength. It’s not a physical strength it’s something within her very soul. I will certainly be pooling some resources to find out what I can about her. I
