Lindsey I finally found my true happiness. I have my mate and my two children. Two beautiful children. A satisfied smile spread through my lips as I watched them play. They were growing up fast. My mate, the love of my life, stood next to me, his hand in mine. It was a beautiful day, with the sun shining and the birds singing. But what made it truly special was the love that surrounded me. "Rhys will make a great Alpha one day," Alvis said absentmindedly. I giggled. "Rhys? Why not Andrew? How do you know Andrew wouldn't be an Alpha?" "Andrew is a gentle soul. Look at him picking flowers over there." Alvis smirked. I couldn't help but laugh at Alvis's comment. "Well, there's nothing wrong with being gentle," I replied with a smile. Alvis chuckled. "Of course not. But Rhys has that fire in him. He's fierce and passionate, just like his dad." He squeezed my hand, his eyes shining with pride. I looked over at Rhys, who was chasing after the Beta's daughter with a playful grin on h
KaiI felt a wave of drowsiness wash over me, and it took me a few moments for my groggy mind to process my surroundings. Eventually, I realized that I was lying in my bed.I tried to move, but my body felt heavy and unresponsive, as if it had been asleep for a long time.I blinked my eyes a few times, adjusting to the bright light filtering through the curtains. As my vision cleared, I noticed I was in my bedroom.I looked around, and the room seemed somewhat different; everything appeared more vibrant and colorful than I remembered.When did I get those curtains with red flowers?My heart nearly jumped out of my chest as I heard a woman's voice humming nearby.I turned my head slowly to see who was humming and saw HER standing by the window, admiring the view outside. I stared at her, captivated by her beauty. She looked like she was lost in thought. Her curves were alluring, and the way her dress hugged her body was like a second skin. Her long hair cascaded down her back like a wa
LindseyKai kept looking at me as if he was seeing me for the first time or I was some kind of weird fantasy creature. He had been acting weird since he woke up this morning, and I wasn't sure why."Kai, you are barely eating!" I scolded him.Kai put the Turkey leg down and stared at me. He smiled warmly and acted as if he wanted to tell me something but then stopped."What's the matter now?" I asked."Nothing. You are just so beautiful," he said, looking at me with dreamy eyes. "I will never ever take you for granted ever again."I rolled my eyes. Seriously? Now he was just being cheesy."Okay...then. Since when are you such a romantic?" I said.Kai frowned. "Why is it bothering you? I'll act however you want me to act. Just tell me what you like, pet."Okay, something was definitely wrong with Kai. He had never been like this. He had always been arrogant and a little rough around the edge. But now he was acting like he wanted to worship me. I giggled. "No, of course, it doesn't both
Kai Everything was right in this world again. Lindsey was back in my arms, and she seemed happy.But then, why did I still feel a pressure in my chest like this was all wrong?Fuck...I was being foolish, that's all. I'd been chasing after her from one life to another, and now that I finally got her...I made an excuse and left her in the bedroom, then strode toward the Library.Selene, I needed to summon her again so I could ask her. Why did my heart feel full like how I imagined it would?I stood before the fountain and recited the spell I was forbidden to use again. But at this point, I didn't care."Selene! Selene! I summon you," I cried out.A gust of wind whipped around me, and a figure appeared in front of me, wearing her red dress. Selene."What is it now, dragon? Why did you summon me again?" she asked, her voice echoing off the walls of the Library."I need to know," I said, my voice barely above a whisper. "What did you do to Lindsey?"Selene studied me for a moment, her ey
LindseyI couldn't be more confused as I stared up at the white house with a picket fence around it. It was like I had been here before in another life. The two-story home looked too familiar, but I couldn't place why.I had never been to this place before, yet I felt like I knew it intimately. I also felt a strange, magnetic pull as Kai led me further down the street, closer to the house.The scent of flowers hit my nose, and my heart warmed.This seemed like a lovely neighborhood.In the background, I heard a child shout, "Ouch, Andrew! You hit my head!"Another child laughed in response. "That's because you're so bad at catching the ball, dumbass! Worst goalie ever!"Even though I had no idea who these children were, tears were forming in my eyes.What the heck was the matter with me?"Kai?" I asked in a shaky voice. "Why did you bring me here?"He didn't respond, and a wave of emotion wormed its way through me as he took my hand and pulled me with him, leading me even closer to th
KaiHow much of Lindsey's memory did Selene erase? It seemed that she remembered Alvis completely, but not as her mate, but as a friend. But her children? They seemed to be more than just a forgotten memory. Is this what they call the mother's love?I watched her play with the children, and jealousy filled my heart. Children were something I couldn't give her. Alvis gave her that, but I snatched it away from her.Okay, so what if I didn't do it on purpose, but it still happened, and I felt responsible.As I watched from a distance, Lindsey sat on the grassy lawn, surrounded by toys and giggling twin boys. Andrew and Rhys were playing with her hair, twirling it around their small fingers, as Lindsey smiled lovingly at them. Her eyes sparkled with happiness, and she seemed to be completely engrossed in the moment.The boys snuggled close to her, and Lindsey wrapped her arms around them, pulling them in for a warm embrace. They laughed and squirmed, enjoying the comfort of their mother's
Lindsey I woke up to the sound of excited chatter and a sweet smell floating through the house. It was Christmas morning, and I was spending it with my best friend's twin boys, Rhys and Andrew. I couldn't wait to see their faces when they opened their presents. As I made my way to the kitchen, I saw Kai, Mariah, and Alvis standing in the middle of the room while Andrew and Rhys ran around, creating havoc. They were nearly twelve years old. They were old enough to know better and not act like brats, but they still did anyway. Spoiled, rotten, those two. I looked at them and smiled fondly. "Do it again, uncle Kai!" Andrew chirped." Kai grinned and his eyes glowed. Like how they always did when he was about to breathe fire. "Um...Kai? What are you..." Kai opened its mouth and breathed a jet of flames before I had the chance to finish my sentence. "KAI!" I screamed. He had aimed his fiery breath at a sizzling pan filled with bacon strips. The bacon crackled and popped as it cooked
Rhys Nineteen years old. "I still think this is a bad idea," Andrew commented. "Why are you so opposed to it? What's the worse going to happen? It's not like they can hurt me. I'm a werewolf!" I grinned. "That's the thing. There's a reason why we aren't allowed to cross over to human territory. Dad said it would freak them out, and when humans freak out, they attack and try to kill anything they deem threatening," Andrew explained. "Yeah, so do every other creature in the world. And I'd like you to try and kill me," I said arrogantly. "You aren't supposed to underestimate them. Dad says..." "Dad says," I mocked Andrew. "Do you ever do anything without Dad's permission? Grow some balls and live a little. Come with me to the human territory. It will be fun. Maybe we can scare some of them. I bet they'd piss their pants once they see a werewolf in real life." I chuckled. Our parents always forbade us from crossing over to the human territory, but I was an adult now and soon to be
My mind couldn't process what Cresil was saying. My brothers? How could that be possible? I had grown up with them, thinking we were just cousins.“What? How would you know that?” I asked.Cresil's expression turned serious. "I have my ways of finding out information," he said cryptically. "But more importantly, you need to understand that this doesn't change anything. You and your brothers are still family, and you still love each other just as much as before."I took a deep breath, trying to calm my racing thoughts. "I know that," I said, my voice barely above a whisper. "It's just a lot to take in."Cresil nodded. "I know it is. But I kept the end of my bargain and told you the secret. What you want to do with it is up to you.”I need to talk to my mother, I thought you myself.Cresil seemed to sense my thoughts. "It would be a good idea to confront your mother about this.Taking a deep breath, I got up from the bed. “Take me back to my house.”Cresil nodded and stood up, taking my
I sighed, feeling a mix of annoyance and attraction towards Cresil. I knew he was trying to push my buttons, but I couldn't deny that I wanted him too.I stood up and slowly began to undress, letting my clothes fall to the ground one by one. Cresil's eyes roamed over my body, his gaze hungry and possessive."Beautiful," he breathed, reaching out to touch me.I stepped away, feeling a sense of defiance growing within me. "You still haven't told me what I need to know," I reminded him.Cresil smirked. "Always so focused on business. I still haven't gotten everything I wanted from you.""Why do I get to be the only one standing here naked? That's not fair," I said. Cresil chuckled. "You have a point there. Come here," he said, pulling me towards him.I kept my eyes glued to his body as he began to undress. His human form was sculpted to perfection but that's not what attracted me about him. "I want you to change back to your true form," I said in a hoarse whisper.Cresil looked at me w
When I opened my eyes, I found myself in a dimly lit room, sitting on a plush couch. My head was pounding, and my body felt heavy and sluggish. I tried to get up, but my limbs refused to cooperate. Panic set in as I realized I was trapped. I turned to look for Cresil, but he was nowhere to be seen."Cresil, where are you?" I called out, my voice echoing in the empty room.A moment later, the door opened, and someone walked in, a smug grin on his face. "Welcome to my humble abode," he said, gesturing around the room. "I hope you find it to your liking.""Err...who are you?" I looked at him with confusion. "Where is Cresil? He was the one who kidnapped me." I observed him closely. This man had long hair too, but his skin didn't have the greyish-purple hue, and his eyes weren't Amber. They were bright blue."I see you don't recognize me in my human form," he laughed.The sound of his voice...it suddenly dawned on me. "You are Cresil!"He chuckled. "Look who figured it out."“You look….”
I stood there, stunned and unsure of what to do next. Part of me wanted to run away from him, to forget about the dangerous and alluring demon that stood before me. But another part of me was drawn to him, like a moth to a flame.I knew that I should leave, but I couldn't bring myself to move. He must have sensed my hesitation because he reached for me again. "I said get out of here," he growled, but there was a hint of desperation in his voice as if he didn't really want me to go.I closed my eyes and leaned into his touch, feeling a strange sense of comfort in his rough fingers against my skin. "I don't want to leave," I whispered. "I want to help you."He let out a bitter laugh. "Help me?" he repeated. "I don't need help. I'm a demon, remember?""And I am a dragon. We aren't all that different," I said.He looked at me for a long moment, his amber eyes piercing into my soul. "Perhaps you're right," he said finally, his voice low and gravelly. "But you need to understand that I am n
As we made our way back to the main area of the pack, my mind was racing with questions. What was Rhys hiding from me? And why was this demon so intent on causing trouble?I decided to take Rhys aside and get some answers. "Hey, can we talk for a minute?" I said, pulling him aside.He looked at me, his expression guarded. "Sure, what's up?""I just wanted to know what you're not telling me," I said, crossing my arms. "You said you and the demon had a history. What did you mean by that?"Rhys sighed, running a hand through his hair. "It's complicated," he said. "Let's just say that I made a deal with him a long time ago, and it didn't end well."I raised an eyebrow. "A deal? What kind of deal?"Rhys hesitated before answering. "He wanted something from me, and I agreed to give it to him. But he didn't hold up his end of the bargain.""What did he want?"Rhys sighed, his shoulders slumping. "I know," he said, his voice quiet. "But it's complicated, and I didn't want to burden anyone els
I stared at the deer, dumbfounded.Did Fae deer know how to speak too?But my questions were answered immediately as the deer started shifting.As I watched in amazement, the deer's body began to morph and contort, its limbs elongating and twisting into something that was definitely not natural. Within moments, the deer had transformed into a strange man.My jaw dropped as I took in the transformation before me. His features were almost otherworldly. His hair was long and tangled, and his eyes seemed to glimmer with an ethereal light.The man seemed unbothered by my shock and awe, "nothing to say?" he said in a calm and measured tone."Um...are you a werewolf? Wait, no. Werewolves can't shift into another animal. So you are no dragon, either. So what are you?" I asked.He glared at me. "None of your business.""It is too my business. You are trespassing. Um...Andrew and Rhys said you were a Fae deer. But you are a human?" I stared at him in amazement."No, I am not a human either," he
I am Aurora, a dragon shifter who is unlike any other. I am half-dragon and half-werewolf, a unique combination that has never been seen before.My mom Lindsey used to say that I was a miracle as dragons and werewolves were never supposed to breed. You might thing it would make me feel more powerful and unique but that wasn't always the case. As a child, I struggled to control my transformations, often shifting between my dragon and werewolf forms at the most inconvenient times. But as I grew older, I learned to harness my powers and use them to my advantage.My life was complicated, to say the least. I never felt like I fit in with either the dragons or the werewolves. The dragons saw me as a half-breed, not fully one of their own, while the werewolves were wary of my dragon side, which they saw as a potential threat.But despite these challenges, I refused to let my mixed heritage hold me back. I trained tirelessly to master my powers and become the best warrior I could be, alway
I watched her flip through her book furiously and grinned secretly.She had no idea I was faking the whole thing and that stupid love potion didn't work on me either. I just thought it'd be funny to pull a prank on her. But what I didn't expect was how much I enjoyed kissing her. Fuck, that was hot. "There! The antidote for the love potion," Natasha muttered."An antidote, huh?" I said sheepishly."Yes so you wouldn't be in love with me anymore," Natasha said seriously."Hmm...but what if I want to stay in love with you?" I winked playfully.Natasha blushed. "Don't be silly," she mumbled. I chuckled and leaned in closer to her. "I'm not being silly, Natasha. I really like you."Her eyes widened in surprise and she pulled away slightly. "Whatever. After the antidote, you'll come to your senses," she said and then proceeded to make the antidote for the love potion.I watched her in amazement as she busily threw stuff in her pot and mumbled bunch of gibberish.As she worked, I couldn'
NatashaOh my god, I couldn't believe he actually did it. Andrew drank the love potion!What would happen now?I stared at him, wide-eyed. But I'm not super worried since it didn't work on Xander earlier. So that means it won't work on Andrew.I watched Andrew swallow the love potion-riddled drink. I couldn't help but feel a sense of unease wash over me.What if it worked on Xander, and it just had a delayed effect? Then I would have two guys fall in love with me!As the minutes ticked by, nothing seemed to be happening."So...um...feel any different?" I asked nervously.Andrew looked thoughtful. "Um...hmm...I don't know."I began to relax, thinking that maybe the love potion was actually a dud. I'll have to remake it for Xander.But then, suddenly, Andrew's demeanor changed.He started to fidget in his seat, and his eyes darted around the room nervously. And then, just as quickly, his gaze settled on me, and he seemed to lock onto me like a missile."Oh my god," I muttered under my b
