2024-10-29 19:42:56It takes time for her dad to answer,
“Morning sweetheart” he yawns into the phone and I realise it must be early morning over there.
“Hhello is this Iris’s father?”
“…. Yes who is speaking please?” I can hear his panic in his voice already he knows something is wrong. Azell gives me all the strength and confidence he can muster for me.
“This is Johnny a friend of your daughters….” Before I can finish he cuts me off talking animatedly to me.
“Johnny… you’re the man my daughter is seeing at the moment?”
“I am, I’m unsure how much you know but… I am calling because there’s been an incident and Iris is in hospital in a coma.”
“What do you mean? How can this be?!? I spoke to her a few hours ago?!” I try and gain composure to help calm him down, but I know exactly how he feels and nothing could ease my turm

Iris & The Book Chapter 15 – Johnny : The awakening
I made sure to be up and ready bright and early. Dad and Rae were going to come with me to the airport. Will was going to stay with my mom and Iris at the pack house. Mom had made us all a huge breakfast pancakes and waffles, with fruits and syrups. It was delicious as always, but it didn’t cure the huge rotating knots that constantly rolled in my stomach. We took my 4x4 SUV so there would be plenty of space for Iris’s dad and son plus any luggage. I was still nervous, I so desperately wanted to make a good impression I made sure I wore smart but casual clothes. My dark jeans black timberland boots, dark navy shirt and my trendy jacket. I wasn’t sure if Iris’s dad would be old fashioned so I buttoned my shirt all most to the top to hide my tattoos, I know it makes me look a little like a bad boy, but that’s the look I was going for as a young twenty something. But now I needed to be smart and respectable. We say good bye to my mom and head on out.

All I could see was an endless darkness. There was no sound there was no colour just empty lifeless darkness I couldn’t tell you how long I was there as time didn’t seem to have a measure. I couldn’t tell you why I was there, or where this even was…. In fact I can’t recall anything. How did I get here? I lift my arm to look at my hand and there nothing, it’s so dark I can’t see where I begin or end. I touch my face but there’s no feeling there. I look up down and around nothing. I step forward and I see a purple glowing spec in the distance. The more I look at it the brighter and close it becomes. What is it? I do not know. I do know I’m not afraid so I start moving towards it. Brighter and brighter, bigger and bigger it becomes. Now I’m struggling to look at it my eyes stinging as the light gradually becomes too much. The light glows so bright I have to close and shield my eyes. I can feel the light behind my closed eye lids the burn becoming too excruciating I start panicking what

I was in my bed but I specifically remember sitting downstairs…. let’s just add it to the million other strange things that keep happening to me. I head over to the bathroom to freshen myself up, washing my face and combing my hair. I notice a mark on my neck it’s a sort of tattoo deep purple in colour and really pretty. A crescent moon and inside the crescent is a twisted and curling tree with winding and twisting branches and roots. It really is wonderful looking. I braid my hair over to the side to cover my stitched, at some point Rae is getting a hairdresser to sort it so a braid will hide the mess. I grab some leggings out of my suitcase and awkwardly put them on. I’m not kidding when I say it took me well over 15 minutes it felt like I had ran 10 miles by the time I’d done. When I finally managed to get them up past my bottom I gave a little whoop. Thankful I didn’t decide to wear jeans god knows how I’d have managed. Wandering out my room to go find signs of life reme

It was immediately obvious that Iris wasn’t right. She couldn’t remember a damn thing not even her name. Her frightened eyes made us all worried, she no longer held that sparkle in her eyes instead they looked frightened and haunted. After the nurse gave her heads up and minor details we were all allowed to spend time with her. Finn sat holding her hand practically the whole time, and I have to admit me and Azell were a little jealous…well ok a lot jealous but we didn’t show it. After all we viewed Finn as much our own son now so we had to dispel those thoughts and allow Finn to be with his mother. The bond those two had with each other I don’t think anyone could come between them even me with the mate bond and I wouldn’t want to. We pretty much spent the day chatting and just trying to make Iris feel more comfortable we all ate in her room together too. Me Finn and Eric cracked many jokes with each other and the atmosphere felt nice. When I woul

“Hey Johnny! How’s it going? You said you had some questions?” “Hey yeah I’m good, so I just wanted you to explain the DNA test you did. I pretty much understand her bloods came back normal….” He cuts me off before I could finish speaking. “Let me stop you there Johnny, her bloods weren’t normal I mean yeah at first glance it was normal but once you actually go over it she had masses and masses of trace metals, far too much for a human, and the DNA basically came back saying she’s ancient. It can be traced back about a thousand years. The first super naturals were druids and witches then came the rest of us super naturals hundreds of years later. No one is 100% sure on what came first but the lineage of witches and druids has been well documented. It all leads back to her birth place so it makes total sense. However druids have different type/ or clans I’m not sure what they are called so it may only get more complicated from here. But at least you know what she is n

The air became static it was filled with power almost like an electrical charge rushing through the air. Time felt irrelevant the surge in my body was all that mattered. I could feel this ever growing power continuing to grow and I liked it. I hungered for it, whatever it was that was awakening inside me felt incredible and dare I say possibly addictive. The burning sensation in my eyes had returned and my vision was now purple. I could feel tremors all around me, I think the tremors were coming from the ground beneath me the more I thought about healing myself the more the power and tremors grew. My intuition keeps telling me I can do it … heal myself … As my spin came to a stop a voice called out to me.“Iris?? Are you ok? Iris…?”Turning off my walkman I saw a man standing watching me, the feeling of power and burning in my eyes dissipated.“Johnny? Oh hey.” A thought quickly entered
Last Updated : 2024-10-29Iris & The Book Chapter 21 - Iris & Johnny : Controlling the power
JOHNNYThroughout my life I have encountered many incredible things. Being an Alpha of my pack, and pretty much most werewolves we have seen more than the average human, experienced more but never have I ever seen anything like Iris’s power. And yes I’ve dealt with witches but a witch’s power is completely different. A witch’s power requires potion making and spells spoken out loud, whereas Iris had pure power something completely unheard of. There is much I don’t know and the sooner I can speak with the elders the better. After the vines had completely covered her body I was sure that was it. But what happened was an actual miracle. When the leaves sprouted they immediately started to glow. When the glow had finally disappeared and there appeared to be no sign of life Azell was ready to rip them all apart. I knew somehow deep down she was ok and after she answered my call I knew something amazing had happened the tone in

It took all my 15 warriors and myself to finally get this vampire taken down. As soon as I saw an opening I managed to snap his neck. We had some chains that would hold him and got to work wrapping them around him. When I was finally satisfied that he couldn’t escape I went to check on Iris who was with Cobie. He had luckily managed to snatch her out the air when she was thrown from the vampire. I walked over wrapping one arm around her waist and the other checking her neck. “Johnny stop worrying I am fine” placing her hands on either side of my face we kissed and I rested my forehead to hers. “I just worry I let so many bad things happen to you already I need to know you are safe” “I know my love” “Cobie and Will are going to take you back to the pack house while I deal with this piece of shit ok.” “Ok,” “Oh I need to see the pack elder tonight too so I’ll be back late so if you’re tired just go ahead to bed.” I

Iris & The Book Chapter 33 – Iris and Johnny : Flashes
IRISThe moment I felt my intuition go crazy I knew this was part of the bad feeling I kept having. I didn’t know what it was exactly but it felt like there was a literal army of eyes watching me. I had a sneaking suspicion those eyes were vampire related. The fact that Johnny felt something too made me feel strangely comforted, but also filled me with dread at what was to come. For once in my life though I didn’t have to justify myself or have someone question my motives or actions because Johnny understood and experienced that feeling too. Watching the tree line and all around me I had this crazy idea of filling in the gaps between the tree line to bring whatever was lurking within either out into the open or move it back. Not being entirely sure if my power was up to the job or if it was even possible, but I had this feeling inside me telling me I could…I can do it and so much more. Figured I would at least give it ago and
Iris & The Book Chapter 32 – Johnny & Iris : Luna Ceremony
Johnny Iris and I wait behind whilst everyone else makes their way to the ceremony. I take her hand and lead her into my office. “I just wanted to give you something before we start the ceremony and kinda lessen to the blow of sending you home tomorrow.” I tell her grimacing “Huh? What do you mean you’re sending me tomrrow?” she looks a little annoyed but not mad at least. “ok babe hear me ok?” she give me a small nod and perches herself on the arm of the chair. “ok so you know all this shit kicking off with the vamps, well…I keep getting these weird kind of feelings telling me things are bad or good” “you think it’s like my intuition?” “yes...I do” “well this is a surprise. I wonder if it’s because we have fully mated now?” she asks me stroking her chin. “I would think so, but you have to understand, I do not want to be away from yo
Iris & The Book Chapter 31 – Johnny : Trouble in Paradise
Do you ever have those moments where nothing seems to go right? As soon as I get complacent and comfortable something happens and I wonder if I am ever going to catch a break. Don’t get me wrong I am so soooo happy I found my mate, unbelievably so I thank my lucky stars every day. I just want to be able to have a normal day where things don’t go wrong. Zane was ambushed when transferring the vamp from here to his territory. We have no idea how they knew it was happening since we did it last minute and only our most trusted warriors were on the task. Only Will, Zane and I knew about it. But they got him good. They killed a handful of our warriors Zane is recovering and thankfully will recover with no lasting injuries, but if he didn’t have werewolf healing abilities we would be planning his funeral right now. According to the 2 wolves able to speak there was at least 50 vampires attacking. We had 20 warriors escorting that one vampire which was over ki
Iris & The Book Chapter 30 – Iris : The Luna Ceremony
Deep in heavenly slumber snuggled in the arms of my hot blooded mate. I couldn’t think of anywhere else I would rather be right now. Snuggling in closer to Johnny’s chest my foot twitches annoyingly and I bring my leg further up the bed snuggling deeper. Drifting off again and there it is yet again a twitch and an unbearable tickle, my leg shakes and I can’t help moan annoyingly. The tickle is now becoming relentless to the point Johnny even moans at me to stop wiggling.“Iris… go to sleep its early…. ““Well stop tickling me”“I’m not tickling you” I immediately sit up scanning the bed for bugs or spiders, Johnny is now watching me with one eye smirking at me. I probably look ridiculous rummaging around the bed, I glance over the end of the bed and see Rae lying on the floor with a feather silently laughing hold her mouth.“Rae?!! That’s it your dead!&rdqu
Iris & The Book Chapter 29- Iris and Johnny: A quick history lesson
IrisThe amulet was resting on top of the soil, Jareth placed his hand just hovering over it. I watched him closely his eyes closed in concentration, after a couple of seconds I saw tiny green shoots coming up out of the soil wrapping themselves around the amulet encasing it in, just like I had done when I was healing myself, only the shoots were just that, shoots. Not thick vines that I had covering myself and I wondered if that was because this was a smaller thing… or maybe his was a different plant because he was a different type of druid. Once the vines had fully covered the amulet the veins running all through the shoots and leaves glowed a neon kind of purple like mine did. The amulets stone swirled as if it was alive, it was truly breath taking.“Whatever the dark ones have done to this amulet it is there no longer. There was only a small amount of it left behind but it woul
Iris & The Book Chapter 28 – Iris : Jareth MountWestern
The journey to this antique collector’s house took around 4 hours, traffic was smooth running thankfully and depending on our timing it would be smooth on our way back too. The city was a lot smaller than where Johnny lived and he assures me smaller than Blake’s and Zane’s. The collector’s house was right on the edge of the city where you usually find the grander more up market houses. Parking was also at a premium and we had to park a street over. Thankfully though the walk wasn’t far Rae had a full briefcase with her that Will insisted on carrying for her. Johnny carried a backpack with the amulet in the safety deposit box tucked safely inside which we weren’t to mention it until Johnny gave us the ok. The area was full of period town houses all at least 3 to 4 stories high. Gated fronts with steps up to the door way. Some even had guards stood outside ready to throw out the riff raff it made me feel a little out of place. I walked hand in hand
Iris & The Book Chapter 27- Iris: Preparation
I had the best time with Clara we get on so well we always have. She is an amazing interior designer the first time we met it was an instant friendship and we have kept in touch ever since. She managed to lighten the mood after the weird Blake incident. While they were gone we stayed in the kitchen drinking tea. Johnny’s kitchen is like the rest of the house light and airy with a cosy feel. The solid wood touches make it feel warm and inviting. Clara explained to me how ridiculous the whole Blake thinking I was his mate actually was, and we ended up laughing at his expense which I’m glad because the last run in I had with a werewolf didn’t end well for me. It only seemed about 20 minutes that the guys had been gone but when I checked the time it had actually been a couple of hours to my surprise. I couldn’t help notice the stressed and tensed looks the two alphas had when they walked in. They spoke in hushed tones to each other. Clara had a frow
Iris & The Book Chapter 26: Johnny- Alpha's Vs Vampire
Once we had eaten I took Blake and Zane to see the vampire leaving Iris and Clara still eating and talking in the kitchen. Will had gone ahead around 10 minutes earlier making sure there were no issues everything seemed to be going according to plan. As wolves we aren’t afraid of much, vampires included they are usually just a fucking pest to be honest. They usually leave a blood bath where ever they go, every experience I’ve had with a vamp hasn’t been pleasant the myth goes they came from the devil himself as only something so impure and evil could make something equally as bad. I haven’t come across a vampire old enough to shed any truth on this but my pack elders seem to agree with the myth. As we head over to my pack prison Blake apologises for the millionth time about Iris. “Johnny I am really sorry about what happened I don’t know what came over my wolf he is just so restless all the time.” “Unfortunately being an Alpha means all your urges and
Iris & The Book Chapter 25: Johnny- She's not your mate
After a long ass fucking day I was supposed to get an early night but ended up in the investigation room (I wanted a really cool name but this has stuck before we had chance to change it) when we finally headed to bed I was done before Iris, I mind linked all the warriors on duty to make sure things were ok. The vampire was getting more restless which means by tomorrow we should be able to bait him a little. As I was coming to the end of the mind link I could feel an over whelming sense of anxiety which felt weird ‘Azell is this Iris we feel?’ *It is definitely not me I would say it is mate*I got up walked towards the bathroom I could hear the rain outside it’s definitely Iris she said this happens when she’s worried…. But worried about what everything is ok now…..“What’s wrong?” I asked leaning against the door frame… she had been so engrossed in her own thoughts she hadn’t realised I’d been
