2024-01-10 18:52:03I sat on the bed watching my happy babies wondering if Ben was alright. My eyes rested on AJ and it took everything in me to keep from crying. How did Ash’s mother survive all six initiations? The thought of it was driving me crazy. When and if that day came, I’d surely die from the anxiety.
AJ grabbed my thumb and chewed on it, rubbing it against his bare gums. “I wonder if daddy will put you through the same thing.”
He whined. He pulled my thumb out of his mouth and began kicking and waving his tiny hands around as his face creased in discomfort. “Are you wet again or hungry?”
I checked his diaper. He was dry, “You eat like your father.”
I looked at my watch. It had only been a half an hour they’d probably take another hour or two to rip Ben apart. I shook my head trying to clear the image of Ben’s head meeting the white ground in a bloody kiss.
“Okay. Let’s just do something

“No way Ash.” the tremble in my voice was in sync with my thudding heart. “It would be an easy win. More than what I had.” I got off the bed and moved around the room like I had ants crawling all over me. “I don’t like the way you said that.” He turned his attention back to AJ, “Like what?” “Like you are going to make it as hard for him as it was for the human you.” “And?” And? “What if he can’t do it, are you going to make him?” He growled angrily, “My son will not be referred to as a Canl waka! He doesn’t come from a line of cowards!” “Ash, don’t do this to me. I’m not your mother. I won’t survive it! AJ is the only son we have.” I begged. Hell, Kiyo can roll in his grave if he wanted to. My son was staying alive! He went silent. I felt a little relieved he was considering it. I hope. “Lee, why is he in so much discomfort?” I stopped moving around to look at him. The kid was close to t

Maria walked past Joe with a bowl of water in her hands, bumping him in the process. “Training! It looked like you guys were taking turns trying to kill him!” She pulled Ben down on the couch, “take off your shirt!” She ordered.Ben looked at me, a hint of fear in his eyes. I didn’t dare say a word. When Maria was furious it was best to stay out of her way and just let her cool off on her own. She grabbed his shirt and pulled it over his head. Ben hissed when she grazed an open wound. “They took turns beating you up like you were some sort of piñata! Lee, help me.”I rushed to his other side and took the towel she handed me. “And then they use you like bait! What if they’d crushed you? Like you don’t have enough scars.”My eyes popped. If she spoke about the bruises... “Maria I’m fine and it was necessary if the plan was to work.”She stopped torturing Ben wit

The ride into town was a little quiet, except for the noises that came from Ben’s one-man act show for Meri. He was getting very attached to her. I didn’t mind it. The twins would have someone of their kind to explain things that Ash and I couldn’t. That is, if Ash let him hang around for that long.Josh volunteered to drive and he did so in silence. I figured it was because I was the one seated next to him. If I had a choice I would have sat behind and enjoyed Ben’s show with Meri, but Maria insisted on it because of my bad back.He looked at me a few times like he wanted to say something, and then his face would harden and he’d look straight ahead. I didn’t know what to do or say. His comment in the house had made things a little awkward. He couldn’t possibly still have feelings for me! There was nothing I could offer him, and nothing I wanted from him except his friendship. I had Ash for everything else.“Josh s

I placed my hand over the scar on my chest. It was the only one that was most visible. I always thought it was from a broken rib and not Joe’s attempt to keep me alive. I understood Ash’s anger and Joe’s fears. Why would he want to go through that again? But yet again, I couldn’t be a hypocrite about it. Looking at my kids, I understand why she’d want to risk it.“Do you intend on spending forever with Joe?”“Yes. I hope so, until the day I die from old age.” She joked.Ann chuckled, “You grow old, and Joe stays young? That’s never going to work.”“Which brings me to my next question,” I turned her to completely face me, “What’s your stand on turning?”Maria looked at me wide eyed, “How is that going to solve my predicament?”“You can have kids as a werewolf, this way there are no risks.”“Is this a joke?

We got home a lot happier than we left. Ben had managed to get a few phone numbers and Josh had gone straight home from the mall. It was getting easier not having him around while he was still stuck in his rut. I wasn’t trying to be cold or selfish, I just didn’t have the energy to deal with his drama.Ash had finally found Baku, and bringing Josh into the equation again was just going to create some unnecessary tension.Billy and Joe laughed at Ben’s expense when he told them about his hunting expedition. They too couldn’t believe that he’d managed to stay a virgin through his teen years with his hyper intense hormones. But Ben didn’t let them get him down. He’d accomplished hitting on women, successfully, and he was proud of himself.I was proud of him! Ten phone numbers in two hours. I must admit, women may be suckers for babies, but Ben had a few things going for him. He was easy on the eyes, he had this cute naivety

Ben spent the next few days walking around, holding mistletoe over his head. He liked the innocent kisses the three of us gave him to the point Billy’s threatening glares didn’t scare him anymore. He was happy and no one was going to ruin that for him.Then one day out of the blue, while Ann and I were sited on the couch, Ben staggered into the room and squeezed between us, placing his head on my laps. He took my hands and placed them on his head. He had a terrible fever.“Ben, are you sick?” I asked feeling alarmed.“My head hurts,” he groaned. “Would you massage it please?”“Okay.” I rubbed his head, but it felt like with every minute that passed he was getting hotter. It felt like I was cradling hot coal on my laps. “Maria, Joe could you come here for a minute?”“What’s wrong?” Joe asked strolling out of the kitchen holding Maria’s hand.&ldquo

Ben gave me a tight, embarrassed smile before he rushed off and sat in between the twins. “So he can only survive on human blood?” I prayed the answer to that question was no.“He can feed on animals. He did the first time we went hunting together.”Ben nodded, “Dears taste better than cows.”“Good to know,” I said, “So what was the problem?”“With all the training and phasing he was losing more blood than what he was taking in.”Maria huffed, wiping the baby food off her sweater, “So why human blood?”Ash pulled me to the couch and hugged me against him, “I wasn’t taking any chances just in case the damage we did was too extent for self-healing.”“You heal faster with human blood.” I utter absently. My eyes were still on Ben. He looked like his old childish self, staring and laughing at the twins. It was like him go

He flipped another page and began reading, “This is my first month as this...”My hand flew over it. I wasn’t ready for that yet either. “Let me leave first.”“He didn’t write this just for himself Lee, so let’s finally read it, together.” He pulled my hand away and hugged it to his chest.***I never thought I’d ever write in a diary but I have no other choice. I feel the real me slip away slowly, and I can’t talk to these people, they’ve been werewolves for too long to remember what it felt like to be normal... to be human.So Mr. Diary, you’ll remind me every day of the man I used to be and keep me sane.Here goes...This is my first month as this creature.

“Felt...” the words died on her lips when a harsh burn scorched down her back. The tattoo there burnt fiercely like a fire razing down and entire forest. She wanted to scream but the only sound that parted her lips was a struggled cry. It hurt, worse than it did the first time she felt it. She felt Samson’s arms tighten around her, holding her stiffened body upright.When it was finally over, she fell into his embrace, her body still buzzing with the painful sensation.“How...?” she choked out.Samson carried her to the couch and sat down, cradling her against his chest. “Merilee is alive.”Merilee? She wanted to ask which one but it was obvious. The only time she felt her magick part from her with such excruciating pain was the night Martha came into her powers.If she was not wrong, Merilee was a few months shy of nineteen... wasn’t this happening late?She shook her head to clear her hazy mi

Lena patted the young boy’s head and gave him a reassuring smile, “You’ll be fine.” He nodded and smiled back, then turned his face into his mother’s chest. A few minutes later he was fast asleep. “Asante,” his mother said, gently holding his broken arm steady on his side. Lena smiled and nodded. Watching the boy turn to his mother for comfort seared a pain through her heart as if a hot blade had been driven through her chest. She missed Martha and Merilee, her two beautiful daughters. But it had been years since they were gone. Merilee died in a car crush as a teenager. She was rebellious, envious and jaded by the fact she was not born first. Lena knew if they could switch places, Martha would happily give her the burden. Lena sighed, Burden? The duties of being born the first daughter from a twentieth-tenth generation faerie had never felt like a burden to her. Granted it felt like a duty

Then everything in the room changed. I felt sick to my stomach. I moved back and put a hand over my mouth. I was aware of everyone, even my twins felt different but more like Ben. I looked at them. For a moment their eyes looked different but I couldn’t be sure. I felt too sick to be sure of anything in that moment. Loud hisses filled the room and then I was standing far away, Ash’s arms around me. “Lee, what’s wrong?” That was Maria’s voice. I felt a hand on my cheek and I knew that was her too. It was human. “I don’t know.” I whispered. “She’ll be fine once this is over.” Ben called out. I looked at him. His eyes had changed. I turned to Joe, his eyes were gold and his grip on Maria was tight. She was tucked into him, her eyes shifting between Ann and me. I leaned my head back against Ash’s chest and bit my teeth together as the back of my neck burned. “Just take a deep breathe,” Ash whispered in my ear. I did as instructed, and with each breath the pain subsided to being be

Three days passed and the house was like a minefield. Maria wouldn’t speak to anyone else but Ben and me. She also never left Ann’s side. She moved all her things in Ann’s room and Ben and I would go downstairs to get her something to eat.Billy felt uneasy staying with Ann. One the guilt of not being able to defend her was eating at him and two Maria made him feel very unwelcomed. But she didn’t care much about justice, or better yet vengeance. She was waiting for Ann to wake up. We all were. The three of us would guess how she’d look like, the color of her fur. But most importantly, how long it would take to subdue her craving for human blood and flesh.Of course we wanted to see the change. No one was looking forward to the pain that would come with it. But mostly, we were waiting for the first thing she’d do once she woke up. Hopefully go for Sabrina’s neck.Sabrina knew it too and it made her very uneasy. She

He pulled away and looked at me, holding my head back so that I looked into his pleading eyes. “I love you, only you. You know that so please don’t doubt my love for you or the twins.”I knew that, but Sabrina was standing in the living room disputing how much he truly loved me.I went to pull away but Ash pulled me back, trapping me in a long desperate kiss.And for the first time, I felt his heart beat in sync with mine. I felt his soul touch mine in a connection that was more than physical intimacy. Every single thing of him intertwined with every single thing of me. We were one and the same.And yet...“How much of an influence does my blood have on you?” I whispered breathlessly on his lips.“Like an energy drink would have on you. And yet it feels like I’ve just kissed the true you for the first time. You feel more a part of me than you ever did before. I don’t think I’ve wanted you
Hiding From My Mate Chapter 110
“Aww!” I cried out at the sizzling pain in the back of my neck. It felt like burning larva as it slowly crawled down my neck to the mid of my back. I stayed very still until the pain faded away. What the hell was that?I blinked my eyes open and looked around. I was in my room. Alive, I think.I rose up slowly into a sitting position. When I didn’t topple over I stood up on my feet on the warm floor. I rocked for a second as the room tilted. Once I felt steady enough I walked to the bathroom and pulled open the folding mirror.There was a large tattoo on the back of my neck. How the hell did that get there?Before I could explore further, Ben’s urgent voice filled the room. “Lee, Lee!”“I’m here,” I announced walking out of the bathroom.I saw his face relax and then crease as his eyes filled with tears. He rushed to me, hugging me tight against him.I cradled him, “Hey, I&rs

Five more werewolves shuffled into the room as Baku and Seth made their quick exit.I pulled out of his grip, “Not yet. Hold them off as long as you can.” I ran to Ash and sat next to him. I was close to sobbing when I saw his battered body. He had shrunk to my size.“Lee what are you doing!” Joe demanded.I turned to him, “What I have to.”He made to come near me but Ben stood in his way, “the fight is over there!” He bellowed.“Get out of my way!”“Joe, please,” I begged.“Joe I need you!” Billy yelled. There were five more of Baku’s men in the room. They stood in a circle around Billy and stalked towards him, tightening the circle with each step.“One minute Lee, not a second more!” Joe ordered rushing away.“Ben...”“One and a half... I know.” He answered without looking at me, wo

It took a few more dodging before Ben put me down, a solemn look in his face, “He’s in here.”I walked in, a quiver in each step I took. It wasn’t the hostage room I expected. It was beautiful and could have easily been mistaken for a living room if there was furniture in it. There was only one royal-like chair against the wall sitting on what looked like a very expensive rug. It was probably where Baku sat as he watched his men torture Ash. I felt the rage inside me boil up as I rushed to that chair. All I wanted to do was rip it to shreds!“Lee!” Ben called out to me, his hands on my arms. He turned me slowly, “there he is.”I felt my legs give under me when I saw him. That chained, withered, bloody body on the ground could not be my Ash. He just couldn’t!Ben held me tight against him, “He’s not dead but I can’t let you go to him. We’ll have to wait for Billy and Joe.”
Hiding From My Mate Chapter 107
I pulled off my coat and sat on it. Five more minutes on the cold floor and I wouldn’t be able to feel my ass again.The chains jingled when Ben tagged on them, “maybe this wasn’t a good idea after all.”He was on the other side of the cold dark steel room. Just like me, he’d been chained to the wall but he had six chains on him; one around his neck, one around his waist and the rest on his hands and legs. I only had one, around my wrist. It made sense, how could a little human break a chain used to weigh down anchors!“Can you tell if Ash is here?”He nodded, “I caught his scent when we boarded. He should have been here by now.”I felt relief flow through me, “Why?”He smiled, “Because you are here. Your scent should lead him right to us.”“Why.... do think he isn’t okay?” I stammered under a whisper.“He could be weak and cha
