Storm

I'm not sure what happened or even how. I just know Julian was screaming, the fire was spreading and I didn't want Quinn in trouble.

My plan was to grab Julian's hand and yank him into the water, but I never got to touch him. I felt a weird magic flood through me, and the water suddenly moved and spun around him.

It drenched him, putting out the fire. Now everyone is staring at me, and I'm not sure why, as I don't know how. I never expected that to happen. I'm not sure how or why.

We're all too busy being in shock to realise when Julian moves.

He lunges for me, the knife in his hand. "You bitch!" My eyes widen as he screams and flies towards me. I've not got enough time to react.

Suddenly, I'm turned so that I'm no longer facing him. I hear someone groan behind me, and the arms that had been holding me let go.

I don't want to turn and see who it is, so I panic slightly. I look up and see everyone in the family. There's a thud behind me, and the guards rush over. Turning, I see Q

    QuinnI wake feeling like I've slept for weeks. It's rare that I sleep well, but I did last night. Turning, I see Storm asleep, her head resting on the edge of the bed.I climb out of the bed and walk around to her. Lifting her carefully, I place her in the bed, turning when I hear the door. The guards look at me."She's going to get hurt sleeping like that," I mutter, and I place her in bed before turning and walking away from her. I grab my sketchpad and pencils. Going to my room, I showered and got dressed.Something feels off. My mum sent me here for a reason, and I don't trust her right now. I don't want Storm hurt, and me being here is getting her hurt. I also know she will get hurt far more if I stay.Walking to the case, I pull out the sketchpads and begin to look through them. They tell the story about everything. No one ever looked at them. The only person to look at my sketches was Storm.My mother saw that one of her, and I never showed her again. Collecting them all toget

    StormI walk into the room feeling confused but instantly take the seat next to Quinn. I've no idea what's going on right now, so I hope someone says something and catches me up on things."Quinn wanted to leave," my mum says, and I stare at him."You're safer with me gone," he whispers, and my head shakes."Safer or not, you can't leave until we find a way to control your magic," my dad says, and Darius nods in agreement."You have lost control a lot, and there is only one person who stopped and helped you," Darius points towards me. "You need her to help you control it. She needs you to help her get her wolf back fully," he looks at Quinn.He's right. We need each other right now."Your mum sent you here to help you, Quinn," I look at him, and his head drops."That was a lie. She didn't care if I couldn't control my magic," he says quietly, and we all stare at him. Then why had she sent him? I look from him to my parents, and their expressions change to anger."What was your plan, Q

    QuinnI told them the truth, knowing that would make them send me away. Storm was foolish and threatened to leave, which meant they said I had to stay.They aren’t considering the entire story, though, and they aren’t considering the danger she is in now. The knock has me walking to the door, and I open it expecting Storm. Instead, it’s Asher and Elijah.“Come sit out here,” Asher says and looks at me.“What he means is, come join us for a drink. Talking, that’s all. Our sister cares for you,” Elijah states before nudging Asher. My head shakes. “Look, I just want to talk and explain some things to you that you should know about Storm. It’s not to talk about you, it’s about Storm,” he says and I nod.If it’s about Storm, I will listen. I walk out and follow them into the lounge area. Elijah hands me the glass, and I peer into it.“It’s whiskey,” Elijah explains.“I don’t drink,” I never have. Grant drinks, he drank a lot it’s what he did when things didn’t go to plan.“It’s one, you’re

    Storm POVI've no idea if Quinn will come. Actually, it's highly likely that he won't be showing up. If it was Elijah, I could see it working, but Asher is the one who will make Quinn hide away if anything.Aurelia sits looking at me, and I know she wants answers, but I have none."If you now have water magic, do you think that Elijah, Asher, and I will get the others?" She waits, and I shrug."I don't know. You keep asking me questions in a way that says you think I knew. I had no idea, I've never had signs of it Aurelia," I explain, feeling annoyed."Fire, water, air, and earth, right?" She asks, and I nod."That's what I've read, but this isn't like before. The magic isn't natural. It's created," I remind her."No, Quinn's was created. Yours is natural."Okay, she is right there. Still, I do no know if this means they get the magic. "It could be because Quinn is my mate. What counteracts fire?" I point out, and she sighs. "Water, so maybe I got that because Quinn is my mate and need

    QuinnI'm not sure if anything I say will help her, so I stay quiet. The fact that she asked if I felt anything means she didn't, which makes no sense at all.Then again, I don't know about mates and bonds, so I can't really say much and be sure I'm right. I'm just confused, as they explained it like mates and such had an unbreakable bond.Ours appears weak, or at least in my mind, it feels like it is."Your brothers explained that me leaving would kill us both," I whisper, and she nods."It's your choice, Quinn. If you want to leave, you're free to," she whispers, and I see the pain in her eyes at the thought of it. She will be hurt if I leave.Sure, she said it was my choice, but it's not. It's hers. I've nothing in life, so leaving and living alone is not a scary thought for me. Then there's the fact that I never knew about mates and bonds.She no doubt spent her life praying that she would find her mate. Dreaming about the life they would have together. Me walking away would hurt h

    StormI wasn't expecting Quinn to shift. He was focused on helping me. Now, even shifted, I can see the panic in his eyes, and I know it's because of our reaction.Then again, what reaction were we meant to have? I still can't stop staring at him. All I can think is, 'How?' How is this possible? I know how it's possible, but it seems wrong."Quinn, it's fine, I promise," I smile at him. He's not noticed his size or how he is standing. Then again, how could he? Has he even seen a werewolf shift before to know what normal is?He steps back more, and I feel like he might run."Can you focus on Raven?" I ask. "It might help me shift." I just need to keep him here and calm until he can figure out how to shift back. I also can't tell him much about what is happening as that likely will lead to him panicking more.It's rare for werewolves to stand on two feet, which is typically reserved for lycans or hybrids. He's not a lycan. That's clear from his eyes. They aren't the same colour as Lycan

    DariusI look at Quinn and Storm. There's so much more I need to work out, but right now, I need to stick to the basics for Quinn. Then, when I look into it more, I can give them more.We've still had no luck tracking down Grant or Bailey, the other three werewolves they used, or the location they conducted testing on.This feels like nineteen years ago all over again. There are links to it, which I hate right now."Dad?" Storm looks at me, and I sigh."Look, the fae have their human form and their fae form. When someone is a hybrid, there are three ways they can shift. If a werewolf is a hybrid with Fae, they can shift into a werewolf, but with some subtle forms of Fae. Or, they shift into Fae with some subtle forms of wolf. Some can shift into a wolf or a fae," I explain.Storm nods and looks at me. "But he didn't," she points towards Quinn."In rare cases, the person is powerful enough to hold both sides at once. Hence, Quinn shifted and was part fae, part wolf at the same time," I

    DariusSitting here we discuss it. No one will like it, but things need sorting and we can't pretend like we don't know the truth.I watch as Xenia walks in."So?" She says while looking between us."You know little about faes, merfolk, dragons and such, right?" I ask and she nods."Only what I learnt from you two and Isadora. Why?" She asks. "Is this because you want to get Quinn help from the Faes but are unsure if anyone will help after the past?" she looks at me and I nod."Not just that, you remember I mentioned the sides refused to interact, werewolves were blocked from each of their kingdoms and likewise them ours?" I ask and she nods."Right, if less someone was already residing there married with kids they were forced to leave, you're not asking to move in Darius," she laughs slightly."Let me show you something," I say before grabbing the laptop and pulling up the videos. It's a way to make her realise what I am thinking. I turn it to face her and hit the play button."This

    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

  • Luna Battle: The Game   The Truth

    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
