There is a knock on the door.
Grandpa and I had just finished making popcorn. All of my best friends are here as well. Theo, Delphi, and Percy, my three best friends, are helping to guide the very little ones to the den where we will be watching the latest Studio G movie from Japan. I am in the kitchen with the popcorn listening. Theo, my beta, is helping me. She is standing a bit closer, her curly blonde hair peeking around the corner.
"Who is it?" I ask, curious but also pensive. I have always been more cautious, and more of a thinker than some of the others in my crew. I guess that's why they are my friends. I need people who are a bit bold to move me forward.
"That SHE WOLF from before," she growls a bit under her breath, her brown skin growing red with anger.

She had no idea the shadows following her from Los Angeles would be this deep.

She believes we can find our pup. She knows in her heart that we can overcome this.
Little Red Riding Witch There and Back Again
[Rosalynd]Looking around at our rag-tag group, I have a feeling that there is more to the story of retrieving me than I can know. And also a lot of introductions to do later. Right now, however, we have more important things to take care of--Rafe. We need to find him. The sun is starting to set and darkness is settling in. If he is in danger, our chances of finding him are decreasing by the minute."How are we going to make this work?" I ask Axel. "I have no idea how long we were in that van, and the sun is setting. How far away from home are we?""About 2 hours," Gideon shares as he comes up beside me, handing me his button-front shirt, and walking around in the white tank top he had on underneath. I can't help but notice that he has remarkably well-defined muscles for a scholar. Of my three men, he is the o

[Rosalynd] Barry places a glowing hand on Evander's head. His eyes briefly glow purple through the bandages as the visual image is transmitted. “I can see the location now well enough to get within feet of him, but I cannot bring us all through,” Evander looks exhausted, his body folded forward in an ungraceful slouch as if the effort of standing up straight is more than he can manage. As if hearing my thoughts, he unscrews the lid on a giant canteen, takes a big swig, swallows, makes a sour face as he shakes his head, and then finds the strength to stand. “Even if I were not injured and exhausted from moving people around all day, I'd have a hard time bringing through a group this size. If I don't rest soon, I won't be able to bring anyone through at all.” “Understood,” Axel nods in confirmation. “How many can you take? “Five, maybe six including myself,” Evander admits. “I’m sorry I cannot do more, but I want to make sure I can complete the trip safely, and if I push myself too

[Axel]Somewhere, in these woods, my son is huddled, in the dark and not quite alone. There is a monster lurking in these woods. I’m done as hell with monsters attacking my family.Is Rosie worth it? Damn, straight she is.Does that mean this doesn’t suck? Oh hell no. This sucks plenty.Not knowing where my son is, knowing that our lives have become so dangerous that he isn’t safe in his own home, makes me angrier than I’ve ever been. It is taking all of my energy to NOT just transform into my wolf and let him lead until I find my son and gut whoever is responsible.Now that I think about it, that isn’t a terrible idea.“According to the vision
Little Red Riding Witch Mother Knows Best
[Enchantra] I cannot go back to Victor like this. Broken, empty-handed with nothing to show for my efforts. Rosie is mine, but she also isn’t. She never really belonged to me. She was created by Victor to be something more than all of us. Which is probably why I kept myself from loving her. Even though I carried her in my body, it doesn’t mean she was ever really mine. I was merely the vessel. I knew who her architect was, the man who dreamed of her, who crafted her to be especially as she is. Victor. The Master. I knew I was overstepping over the years as I sampled her power, siphoning off a bit of her energy. She was so full, just bursting with life, and Victor visited me so rarely I could feel my body shrinking, fading away. So I took a little bi
Little Red Riding Witch Enchantra's Last Stand
[Gideon]I didn’t see her coming until it was almost too late.Esther came at us like a force out of hell, with nothing left to lose and nothing left to gain. Only pain and suffering remain for her, pain and suffering that I helped create. Thankfully, we were at least a little bit prepared for her, and with our fast thinking, Evander and I were able to cast a shield around us, using much of the power we had left in our reserves, trapping Axel in her with us too. That might not have been the best choice as he was our only means of fighting her physically, but in the heat of the moment, it seemed like the best option. We needed time to think, to regroup, and come up with a solution. He used the energy from his sword to create the shield, and I know it must be the last bit of magic within him. He’s had to tap his soul with a bit too much frequency in h
Little Red Riding Witch Hands, Head, Heart
[Rosalynd] I blink awake. I’m in a dark room. The curtains are drawn to keep out the bright light of the full moon. I am surrounded by warmth, several arms and legs wrapped around me protectively in a warm pile. The last thing I remember is fighting my mother, who had turned into some kind of hideous beast, and falling to the ground after our spell went wrong. I am grateful that the room is dark because the pain in my head might be too great for sunlight. Taking a deep breath, I smell the earthy aroma of my mate, who I had been using as a pillow. I give his abs a little kiss, and he rolls into me subconsciously, snuggling into me, placing his face near his mark. I move to give him enough space and find a strong, fit, muscular body spooning me from behind. Unlike Axel who is li
Little Red Riding Witch Just for Us
[Rosalynd] “What haven’t you told me?” I hold my breath, waiting for the worst. “I’m not just a Fae lord,” he vaguely explains. “I’m a bit higher up on the food chain, so to speak.” “Like how high,” I laugh. “A Faerie duke? Prince?” I shake my head. “It doesn’t matter, does it? I already knew you are nobility. You've never hidden that.” “It kind of does matter,” he sighs. “Which is why I feel like I should apologize. I never fully explained why it was so important to find a bride. I need an heir. Not j

Little Red Riding Witch See You Next Time
[Rosalynd] I’d like to say this is a happily ever after, and I guess in some ways it is. Girl meets boy. The boy turns out to be a wolf. The girl meets another boy, who is a witch, and then another boy who happens to be a leprechaun. They all fall in love and have a lovely life full of magic and love. But fairy tales only seem simple on the outside. And our story is still beginning. Evander has been busier than ever ruling his kingdom. He spends as much time as he can here, but Tara is calling. Soon, he may need to stay there for longer. I’ll miss having him with me every day, but I understand. And It’s not like I can’t be there with him. It’s just a simple flip of a coin. Axel has taken his new duties as Guardian of the Forest very seriously. His new abilities from his time as the void have made him useful when it comes to detecting warlock mischief. Yes, we are still dealing with the warlocks, as before, but with their leader gone, they are a lot less powerful. Gideon has resum
Little Red Riding Witch New Opportunities
[Evander] I’m not sure what Rosalynd is going to think when she sees this. I hope she takes it well. It’s been two months since our daughters were born and sometimes her emotions overtake her. “My Love,” I call out as I cross the threshold of our home in the woods. Today is Rosalynd’s day with me, and I can’t wait to come back to her from my dealings with the new council, even if I have some difficult news to share. My “surprise” is hidden in the satchel lying across my chest. She’s become such an intuitive witch since the babies were born that it is almost impossible to keep anything from her. She’ll likely sense the contents or see a vision or some other trick of the universe that will reveal everything before I open my mouth to tell her. Sometimes I wonder why any of us boys even bother to try. “Back here!” She responds from the kitchen, her voice strained with effort as if trying to lift something heavy. The kitchen is the last room I’d expect to find her in and prob
Little Red Riding Witch And Babies Make Family
[Rosalynd] The chaotic hubbub that my announcement created would be comical if it weren’t happening to me. Thankfully we didn’t have to worry about much, we already had a room set up for the birth. One of the advantages of being married into a family as magical as mine, I have no shortage of highly capable hands to help me in this new adventure. This birth will be a bit more exceptional for a few reasons. Firstly, I am not entirely a wolf or even a simple hybrid. We have no idea how being part chimera is going to change things. Second, I am carrying two children fathered by two men. None of us know how the DNA was passed or what to expect. Will they be witches, leprechauns, wolves, or something else? The only thing we know for certain is that they will NOT be human. Nor will their powers be weak. They are the children born of deities and avatars, crafted from the flesh of some of the most powerfully magical beings on Earth and in Faerie. Thankfully, the Eel River pack already h
Little Red Riding Witch Now and Forever
[Axel] Things have been different since we returned home. It has been months, and even though everything seems to have settled back to “normal,” there is no denying that things will never be quite the same again. Since the night I agreed to let the Void take over my body, I hear voices in my head. Sometimes I see things that others cannot see, even Rosie, our own personal goddess. I am myself, but I am also something else. Even Connor has been affected. After that night in the bunker, his coat had gone completely black, and his eyes glowed with the hot blue fire of the stars. He insists that he is an unchanged wolf, just better looking, but I would be a fool not to be disturbed by the changes. But today, I promised to put all of that aside for the sake of having one, perfect moment. “Are you ready,” Evander smiles from the doorway. His navy blue tie matches the color of my formal suit. Seeing me struggle with my own tie, he walks into the room and takes over for me. “Cousin
Little Red Riding Witch The White Sword
[Evander] I can feel the moment that Rosie gives into the Void. It feels like a cold chisel cracking into my heart, seeking to break the ties that bind me to her, that bind all three of us to her, leaving only the darkness within. Axel thinks that by welcoming the void in, he is getting his opportunity to be with her forever. But he isn't. The void does not need his soul once the darkness completes its work. As she kisses Axel, sealing their union, I know that even with the Universe’s blessing shining within me, I understand that If I do not act swiftly, we may all be tied to the void forever. Or worse, we could lose her to it. “We claimed her first and that bond cannot be broken so easily,” the Universe speaks to me, through me, filling me with the knowledge of what it sees as it fills my body, taking command. Reaching deep within myself, I can feel the truth of those words. The void tried to break us, but it failed. All three of us are still tied to her with shining cords o
Little Red Riding Witch The Gray Shield
[Gideon] His voice is like a cancer, rotting my soul from the inside out. Vincent. I thought I was free of him when he took Esther south when he left our coven behind. “You can never be free of me,” he laughs in my head. “We were never truly apart. Once you merge a soul with another, you are always connected. I was your coven leader. I will always be your coven leader.” “Not if I kill you,” I promise aloud, my body struggling against the magical restraints that Evander placed on me. His cackling laughter fades into the background. He is done with me for now. I can rest and regain my strength so that I can fight him off again next time. Unlike Slone, there is nothing that he can offer me that I want, so there is no way for him to find entry into the deepest parts of my soul. With Rosie and Evander in my life, I have more than I deserve. I wake up in darkness. The room is cold, colder than I expected it to be. It is like all the warmth vacated the room through every little cr
Little Red Riding Witch Dreams and Nightmares
[Rosalynd] I lie there frozen as I watch the black of his eyes expand to overcome the sclera. Wide and unblinking, they stare into my own and I find myself falling into them, losing all sense of where I am. My body is present in the here and now, but my mind and soul have moved on to someplace so vast that galaxies are formed and die around me as I watch. And I remember. I remember being pulled to a place like this once before, at the moment of my almost death, when I had to make a decision. And I stand in that darkness now, the room gone, only darkness remaining. A man steps forward. Whereas before the void had no shape, now that it has a form to inhabit, he takes the shape that has become familiar and comfortable and wears my fiancé's face as he waits for me to come to him. He is still dressed for a wedding, but the clothing doesn't seem out of place here. In his natural element, the void incarnate looks regal, his body radiating power in dark waves of energy. "Do you remember me
Little Red Riding Witch Dark Wedding
[Evander] By the time I reached his location, it was already too late. Axel fell through the opening in the sky, hungry arms grabbing him and drawing him in. It was as if the void itself took him. I have been flitting through the shadows, looking for a trace of him. Wherever he was taken does not lie within the shadow roads. My best guess is that he is somewhere inside one of these buildings. My worst guess is that he is somewhere I cannot follow, deep in the void itself, unable to reach any of us or call out for help. “If you are listening, Universe, we could use your help.” The universe never answers, at least not with words, but my instincts are telling me to head toward the smaller of the two buildings. I cannot blink beyond the walls without knowing what is on the other side. Which means I need to get close enough, undetected, to see where I might land. And then I need to search and keep going until I find him. Until I can find both of them. Because I am not leav
Little Red Riding Witch Not Quite Right
[Rosalynd] The creature wearing the face of my mate walks towards me. He is dressed for a wedding. Top hat, tailcoat, white gloves, and a silk cravat and dress shirt all in varying shades of black and gray, like fog at midnight. His chestnut-colored hair has been slicked back and put into a ponytail, a ribbon of black silk tying it back. None of this feels right. It isn’t Axel’s style. Even at our true wedding, I would more likely expect him to wear designer cowboy boots and a pair of dark denim. But that isn’t the part of him that bothers me the most. It was his eyes. Black as slate, cold and dark, they are the opposite of those warm, honey-brown orbs that stole my heart all those months ago. “What are you?” I hiss, struggling against my bonds. "And where is Axel? Where is my mate?" He places a gentle hand on my cheek, making a shushing sound as he tries to soothe me. “He's still here, watching you, protecting you. Even now, he fights to be by your side," his fingers re
