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
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
After I left Johnny to deal with the vampire I was escorted back to the house by Cobie and Will. Cobie was a really chatty and handsome man full of aspirations and a youthful playfulness. He must be early to mid-20’s but since falling in to the werewolf community I have struggled to place many of the inhabitants ages. I guess being a super natural being makes you age differently. As we approached the pack house I bid farewell to Will and Cobie who both lowered their heads and called me Luna. No matter how many times I hear that I don’t think I will ever get used to it. Everyone was congregating in the kitchen area when I walked in. fussing over me making sure I was safe and ok. How many times I had to say “I am ok” they all still look as though I might break. After we sat and had a hot drink we decided to mull over the books about the amulet again. Not much progress had been made since I was in a ’coma of sorts’ so I wanted to make a start. We all sat mulling over the
The rest of the evening was spent going through all the notes I’d written down adding to what we thought the poem was about and things to research more about. We figured the moons were a symbol of just what they said the wolf moon meaning the wolf and flower moon and harvest moon we weren’t sure on the exact interpretation. Rae suggested the harvest moon was something to do with the start of harvests lent etc… around Easter... Johnny seemed to think it was something much more sinister and I was leaning more towards Johnny’s theory the more we looked at the page. Before we all called it a night Johnny took us to a spare room in his house that he had made into his own little investigation area. I have to say it was really impressive. Everything was so well organised, the boards with all the information was even more impressive. You could clearly see all the links to each specific piece of information. We added a few pieces we found tonight and photocopied all the pictur
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
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
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
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
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
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
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
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
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
