Storm

I stay awake and watch as Quinn sleeps. I hear someone step towards the room, and turning, I look at Asher.

"I'm sorry," he grins at me.

"Asher don't, I'm not in the mood!" It's not funny. I don't find it even slightly funny.

"Look, he came out and was freaking out over what happened. I thought I would help," he shrugs slightly.

"Help? In one hour, you got him so drunk he passed out?" How the hell does that help?

"He was freaking out. I offered him a shot and said it would calm him," he says while shrugging slightly. "He drank it, and seemed to calm down, he liked it asked for another so I gave him one, then another and well another."

I glare across at him.

"Okay, fine, I fucked up. I am sorry. He stopped freaking out thinking he had done something wrong," he says before smiling.

"No, he passed out!" He didn't calm down and stop freaking out. He passed out.

"Either way, I apologise. Next time I will find a non alcohol friendly way to help," he smirks at me.

"Next time?" Is he cr

    Quinn POVI sleep well, far better than I think I ever have before. I have no nightmares. I don't get woken up by any noises. It's just peaceful.I wake feeling uneasy. My head hurts. Actually, my whole body hurts. My throat is dry and sore, and I swear it feels like when I would wake up from them testing things on me.My heart begins to pound in my chest. Everything feels the same. I begin to panic and quickly move, my body hitting against the wall.The room begins to spin, and I fight to see everything right. They tricked me. My mum warned me they would trick me. I grasp my head, feeling pain pulsing through it."Quinn!"My head shakes."Stay away! You all lied!" I scream, feeling the heat build-up in my palms. I should have known. How didn't I realise they were doing the same thing?"Quinn, please," I hear the words, but everything is still blurry; my head hurts. Screaming, I grasp it more. I can't feel my wolf anymore. Why can't I feel it anymore?There are more voices now, and I

    StormI'm not sure what happened. Quinn woke up and instantly began to panic. He kept muttering about being drugged and tricked. At first, my dad and Darius forced me to stay back.Fighting with the guards, though, made them give in."We have to," my dad looks at Darius."Please, just let me try!" I look at him."He's already burnt half the room, Storm!" His words are loud, and I look at Quinn. The fire is bigger than I've ever seen it. My words are ignored. I try and rush forward as they throw the water, but my mum's arms wrap around me and hold me in place.Screaming, I push her off me and watch Quinn shift."He's safe!" I shout and rush towards him as he starts to move. Placing my hand on his chest, I try to calm him. He stares down at me, and I try to smile back at him.They were ready to chain him down, which is wrong.“Please, Quinn!” I look at him, sensing he's on the edge of running. He moves slowly, and I watch everyone tense as he grabs me and lifts me. My body wraps around

    StormSitting, we stay quiet. He's still shifted in his fae form and seems to be amazed by the few parts of his body that resemble a wolf. I watch as he looks over his shoulder and now peers at the wings."I should speak to my mum," his words are quiet, and I glance at him. "Surely she knows who my father is if he's fae?"He looks at me, and I nod. I need to explain the truth to him, and then he knows that Bailey isn't his mum. My hand reaches back and strokes along his wing.A weird tingling sensation floats through my hand, and a low rumble grows within him. He smiles at me, and I watch his eyes change colour to silver. I swear his changes are giving me whiplash. I glance up and see his ears gone; pulling him forward, I look."Storm," he grumbles."Your ears changed," I explain and hear him sigh. His breath washes over my breasts. Oh crap, I pull back quickly. He holds up his hand, and I stare at it."How?" I peer at him. "Can you turn them back to paws?" I ask and hold his hand aga

    QuinnThe sound of someone shouting my name wakes me. I peer around and don't see anyone. I'm still outside with Storm. She's wrapped around me and asleep.They are coming.The words float into my mind, and I look around, unable to see anyone."Who?" I whisper. "Why?"To take you away from Storm.I panic hearing the words; standing, I stay in my Fae form and pick her up. Rushing through the trees, I get to where our clothes are. If I shift back, I'll be weaker.I can't protect her then. Picking up my shirt, I place it on her to cover her body. The sun has just begun to rise. Ensuring she is covered fully, I begin to run through the trees towards the palace. As I break out of them, the wolves are surrounding it.One of them shifts and walks towards me. Do they really shift and keep their clothes on? I stand confused and utterly amazed."Quinn, I will show you to her room so she can sleep, and you can get sorted in yours," Yori looks at me, and my head shakes."No!" I'm not leaving her.

    QuinnI don't get why we needed to talk. They could have so easily just said that they couldn't help find my father, and that was it. I could be with Storm right now, ensuring she is safe."Quinn, twenty-six years ago, Prince Orion was taken from the Fae's palace. Magic was used. He just disappeared. Quickly after, Princess Seraphine vanished from the Merfolk palace, followed by Prince Arktos, the Bears and Princess Zyra, the Dragons. This is why the sides no longer come together or speak." Queen Xenia smiles at me."It's fine, I understand." I have Storm. I'm not bothered about finding my father."There's a reason I am explaining it, and it's not because they can't help. When you shifted, your wings were significant. They were like the royal family of the Fae. Only that family had those wings." She explains, and I sigh."So you think I am related somehow?" I ask, then realise something. "It makes no difference. I am sure whoever my mum was with knew she had me; they didn't want me. I

    StormI wake up in Quinn's bed. I'm wearing his shirt, which is way too big for me."Hey," I turn and see Asher. Your clothes are there; get showered. Quinn is eating downstairs." He smiles at me, and I sit confused. I want to ask why he and Elijah are here and why there are so many more guards outside the door, but I don't.Quinn is fine; that is all that matters. I need to speak to my mum and find out why Quinn changed again. Getting up, I grab the clothes and go to his bathroom. After getting cleaned and changed, I walk out."Can we talk?" Asher looks at me."Later, I need to do something," I say before rushing out, I ignore the guards and everyone. I know where my mum will be. Once I speak to her, I will tell Quinn everything.Rushing into the room, I stop when I see the people. My body stays still as they turn and look at me.Fae. I know because they have their guards with them who are shifted. I watch the people part, and a woman stands looking at me. She's also shifted and is so

    **I apologise for the issues with the chapters this week. My daughter was in the hospital, and I was apparently very sleep-deprived. All chapters should now be updated to the correct ones. I again apologise**QuinnStorm stands looking at me. She moves and holds out clothes for me.“Please, Quinn,” she begs, and I reluctantly shift back. Without speaking, I take off my clothes and get dressed. I thought I could trust her, and regardless of who Bailey really was to me, she told me this would happen.She warned me they would let me in and treat me like family but keep things hidden. I was ready for that, but I never thought Storm would.Turning, I walk towards the palace.“Quinn, I get I hurt you, but I couldn’t say anything,” Storm says.“You could!” I shout before turning to look at her. She could have told me that my mother wasn't Bailey. “You had days to tell me.”“I apologise. I didn’t want to tell you until you were calm and had control of your magic,” she explains. I laugh.

He silently takes the clothes and gets dressed. He doesn't speak. He simply turns and begins to walk towards the palace."Quinn, I get I hurt you, but I couldn't say anything," I explain."You could!" He shouts before turning to look at me. "You had days to tell me.""I apologise; I didn't want to tell you until you were calm and had control of your magic," I explain, and he laughs."My magic is in control. My magic isn't the problem! It's my emotions, and you keeping it a secret who I really am doesn't help," he shouts, and I nod. "I would never do that to you," he whispers before walking back inside. I follow at a distance."Quinn, please, can we speak?" I ask, and he looks at me."Now you will speak?" he asks, and I stand confused. "Not last night, or yesterday, or when you found out.

    Asher POVI look down at Katla. She's only a few days old. After speaking with Zyra, she decided that the space in the mountains would be a retreat—a place for us to escape to, somewhere Katla could get used to what it is like to live in the Dragon Kingdom.We have spent a few days there, but not many. Apparently, she wants to be in the palace close to the others. Part of me feels like that's because they were her support while I was hiding away.It's shown her what having a family around can do. We're close, minus Aurelia. She seems to be thriving with the Bears and keeping her distance. Other than returning that day when I was going crazy and needed help, she rarely came back. We've adjusted and got used to that, however.She wants her life away from here; she wants her own life, not one that is connected to us. She should have that if she wants it."Hey."Turning, I see Elijah walk to me.He laughs slightly and takes Katla from my arms. "You look exhausted; fun night?"It's only 4

    Asher POVI walk out of the room and go to where I know they will be. As I step into the office, they turn to face me.Darius shakes his head. "You should be with Zyra.""I was, but considering this is brought on by the Dragons, I should be helping." I walk further in and look at the papers."Nothing to help with," my dad shrugs. "His son is clean, Seraphine can tell. Things were explained to him. He had no idea about the arranged marriage and, to be honest, was shocked, as he apparently had a mate."So the son won't be an issue. Is that what he's saying?"Look, both Eliphas and Durnalin are in the cells, away from each other. The son has gone. Apparently, he has a whole life with his mate. His dad told him the dragons had requested their presence at events." Darius explains.It makes no sense, though. "Why? Why would the dragons want the warlocks there?" How didn't his son question it?"Apparently, because Eliphas and his son are the strongest warlocks, they invited them to make a un

    Asher POVI wait and watch."Prince Asher, soon to be King, tell me something." He walks to the bars and leans against them. "Where do Warlocks belong?"My head tilts; they belong wherever they want to. I don't understand his question."See, there is no answer as we don't belong anywhere. There is the werewolf kingdom, fae, dragons and everything else. Witches and warlocks are forced to live in one of those kingdoms, with no real power."So this was all about getting power? My body is pushed back, and my eyes widen as I see King Drakon reach through the bars—his hand clamps around Eliphas' neck.I guess he's fixed, and his curse is gone. My dad and Darius drag him away, and I watch Eliphas drop to the floor, clutching his neck. The blood runs down from where King Drakon's nails dug in."We need answers; killing him won't get them." My dad turns and faces Eliphas."Apparently, this was all for power." Which still makes no sense."It wasn't just for power. We wanted our own kingdom, our

    Asher POVI'm anxious. It's been two days since the curse was lifted, and I'm glad to be back to normal. All that is at risk, though. Tonight, I have to be close to whoever is pretending to be King Drakon. That then risks it happening again, and if it does, will it start slow again or begin where it was removed?I've noticed Elijah, Storm, and Aurelia are quiet. Whatever was done has worn them out, which I didn't want."Are you ready?" Zyra hugs me, and I nod. I'm not. We need answers and to figure out who it is."Be careful, okay?" I don't like that I'm not going to be there."It's you who needs to be careful. You will be in a confined space with him. If anything goes wrong." She looks at me worriedly.Wrapping my arms around her, I smile. "I'll be fine; once he's in the cell, he can't do anything." I kissed her and gave her a final hug before walking away.Getting to the cells, I sit in one and wait. I'm hoping the plan works. If we can get him in the cell, then his magic and power

    Asher POVI can see Zyra is struggling, and I don’t blame her either. She just found out her brother is missing.“Look, when Seraphine checked trying to find out the issue with him, she saw King Drakon, but it wasn’t him. Whoever it was is who we believe Cursed Asher.” My mum grasps her hands and smiles. “We’ve got people tracking down where your brother really is. There’s a reason for this, and it’s you, Zyra. Seraphine could sense the curses were put on Asher and Elijah to try and push you to return home.”Zyra looks around the room and seems increasingly worried. “What about Ryker? Is he okay? Does he know?” She waits, and I don’t know the answer to that.“I’m sorry, we don’t know. You need to stay here, Zyra. We have a plan, and we’re hoping Seraphine can uncover more when the person comes here.”She nods and sits, looking lost.“We are expecting Seraphine to return late tonight or early tomorrow. If they can’t fix the issue, then we will keep working to.” My mum smiles and hugs h

    Asher POVAfter about an hour of sitting in the cell with Zyra, I ordered her to leave. I wanted to spend time with her, but she shouldn't have been sitting in the cells with me.So, I've been alone for hours, waiting to find out their plan. They hadn't thought this through. I need to leave the cell to go to the room. As soon as I step out of this cell, it will come back. Then what?I'm willing to agree to anything right now if it gets me out of this cell and back with Zyra. The footsteps have me standing, and I watch my dad and Darius walk towards me."What's your plan? How am I to do this?" They haven't thought it through."You need to shift." Darius looks at me.I laugh at him. Is that some kind of joke? "You want me to shift, so that what? I can kill people easier?"My dad sighs and steps forward. "Please do as you're told. You won't understand why we're saying you can shift, but shift. Into your wolf, not dragon."Of course, I won't understand; they haven't explained it to me. If

    Elijah POVI sit in the office; Seraphine has left. She's meeting her family halfway in the hopes they have something that can help. Merfolk are powerful creatures with extraordinary abilities.Curses and such are something they specialise in."We're going to request that King Drakon attend a celebration for Zyra's pregnancy. It means we can get what we need and figure out who it is and what their aim is." My dad looks at me, and he makes it sound so simple. This isn't simple."He's going to ask why Asher isn't present, then what?" We can't lie and hide him. "It will look suspicious.""Not if Zyra invites him, she won't know, remember. She can invite him, and whoever is portraying King Drakon won't suspect anything. We're going to be honest and explain something is wrong with Asher, and he's not well."So we're not hiding the issue."He could be in the cell for weeks, so we've had things moved down there for him. The plan is later to test how he is with someone in the cell with him. T

    Asher POVI watch as Elijah glares at everyone and backs up more."Elijah, we need to know." My mum steps towards him."I saw him once, just once! You all need to focus on Asher, not me! He's the one that is cursed, not me!" He shouts and steps back. He backs into my dad, and he grabs Elijah as Seraphine steps forward and grips his head.His screams echo around the cells, and it's all over just as quickly as it starts. His body falls to the floor, and he cradles his head."Well?" Darius looks at Seraphine."You're going to need a warlock, or I'll need to contact my family and see if they have something to clear the curses." Her words make me look towards Elijah. So, he is also cursed."Asher's curse is to make him push everyone out and make him think he has a mad wolf so that Zyra leaves. Elijah's was to hate Asher, likely to intensify it." Seraphine smiles slightly. "There's no mate, Elijah. The curse is what's stopping us from having a baby. There's no third mate." Her words have hi

    Asher POVNo one speaks, likely because they know what I said is the truth. I need to die; there is nothing they can do to change that."Explain the process, what happened, how it started, when it happens." Darius pulls a chair over and sits outside the cell.I laugh. "Why do I need to talk? Why do I need to explain? You're proving you believe me by keeping me locked in here and being too afraid to come near your own son."Nothing I say can change that."Asher, I'm not opening the cell because I don't trust you to try and run. So explain it to me, tell me how it's progressed, and let's be sure that is what is happening." He waits, and I watch my mum, Elijah, and dad sit with him."It began with whispers. The words were barely audible, but I heard whispers in my ear. They got louder and began to sound like words. Whispers were one thing, but then I began to see people dead and my wolf above them." It was a warning to me to hide, to push them away, and not let them close to me."When do
