"I thought you were taking me out of this jungle. Did you just bring me to your home? Or the center of the jungle?" Maisie asked confused but stepped closer nonetheless.

The roots of the huge tree were spread on the forest floor. The moment Maisie accidentally stepped on a protruding root and slipped, falling face-first to the forest floor. She tried to hold something in vain. There was nothing to stop her from falling as she saw the ground get closer.

Again, she closed her eyes but tried not to scream. Screaming had brought her problems so far.

She fell, but instead of hard and moist ground, she felt a soft, dry, furry rug on her face. It still hurt but not as much as falling into the insect-infested forest floor might have.

Confuzzled, Maisie opened her eyes and quickly got up only to stop stunned.

She was now in a different location. The open jungle had vanished and she now stood in a cozy cottage that looked very normal at first glance.

Then, she noticed the brown bir

    >"Oh, my Goddess! MJ!" Zoe rushed to her friend as the tale became progressively traumatic and hugged her.Xavier let Zoe comfort her friend. He knew Zoe could comfort Maisie better than him. Maisie had been through some serious shit and the tale seemed far from over.Zoe realized that it all must've been awful for Maisie but as she had hugged her friend, Maisie seemed too calm and collected. Zoe hoped it was just a trauma response that would go away with time and not something that her circumstances had permanently turned her kind friend into."Maybe that's enough for now. Let's get out of here. Talk somewhere more," Xavier suggested and glanced around the small space before uneasily adding, "Cleaner."His words got the girls out of their embrace.Maisie looked at Xavier, "AlphaXS34, huh?" She gave a tiny smile."Cornhead24, huh?" Xavier returned."What's going on?" Zoe asked confused about the interaction."I told you I met someone who claimed to be of help on the dark we

    >Not thinking of anything to change the subject, Xavier blurted out, "We need to find a way to get into a human-only club. Can you do that?" Maisie and Zoe turned to look at him like, 'Seriously? Is now the right time?'He raised his hands in surrender, "Sorry."'Yeah, like an apology is going to fix it.' Spike sneered in Xavier's head."What do you want now?" Xavier said to him annoyed.'Don't come at me now. The girl is right. Anyone would feel abandoned. Zoe left her in our responsibility and look what happened.' Spike tried to knock some sense into Xavier.Maisie had turned her back to them once again and started to sort random objects on a shelf as if to distract herself from their presence."Maisie, we are truly sorry for what happened to you." Zoe started and urged Xavier to continue, "And we want to try and make amends, as hard as it might be.""It starts with you coming back to us. I missed you." Zoe added."What part of I can't leave can you two not understand?"

    >Xavier returned after two hours, to find the girls in a strange way."Okay, someone catch me up. That's not how I left you, girls." Xavier sauntered in, his relaxed gait turned into confusion, "What's going on here?"Zoe and Maisie were sitting on the floor after having cleared some space, as impossible as that seemed. Zoe, for some strange reason, had changed into rags similar to Maisie's and was holding hands over a large bronze bowl that had some weird stuff in it.Maisie was holding a ceremonial blade with a rune carved in its handle and was about to chant something when they were disturbed by Xavier."Where have you been for the past two hours?" Maisie asked in return."I asked first." Xavier challenged, still eyeing the whole setup suspiciously."We are doing the ritual that you came for." Maisie said in a matter-of-fact tone. "I don't remember coming here for any ritual." Xavier retorted."Well, you want to get into a human-only club and this is the way to it. So,

    >"I hope you don't intend to go in that." Xavier walked out of the bathroom, dressed in an expensive clubbing attire and ready to leave while Zoe was still in her sweats, working on her makeup."What's it to you?" She replied awkwardly while stretching her mouth to put mascara on her curled lashes."Why are you making that face?" He asked as he stepped closer with a childish curiosity mixed with humor."Again, what's it to you?" She replied with a roll of her eyes and then cussed under her breath when the wet mascara smeared on her upper eyelid because of her rolling eyes.Xavier laughed and Zoe glared at him. They were like an old married couple but hadn't realized it yet."Why are you here? Are you ready?" Zoe asked annoyed."What's that supposed to mean?" Xavier twirled and flipped his coat with a smirk, offended that she didn't think he was ready."What's gotten into you?" Zoe asked confused at his carefree behavior."What do you mean? I'm going clubbing with my mate f

  • Lycan Queen   Going Clubbing

    >Xavier and Zoe got out of the car, handed the keys to the valet, and walked over to the entrance like they owned the place.There was no queue. Either you were a member and walked right in, or you weren't a member and had to buy an extremely expensive ticket online on the possibility that you might be let in. Xavier had gotten two VIP tickets under fake names and was directed to enter through a non-member lobby.They stopped at a receptionist who asked them to wait so they could confirm their identities."What if they find out?" Zoe dared to open the mind-link between their mind spaces for the first time. She was not ready to give herself up until she found anything that she came for.Xavier was pleasantly surprised to hear Zoe in his head. He glanced at her and she yelled in his head, "Look ahead!"He resisted flinching and replied, "They can't hear us but that doesn't mean you get to yell at me in my head.""Sorry," Zoe whispered."Okay, you don't need to whisper eith

    >Zoe turned the door handle, her stomach was in knots due to the anticipation.She pushed it open to reveal a set of stairs going down. She stepped forward followed closely by Xavier. Slowly they descended until they stood face to face an elevator.She pressed the button to call the elevator. The few moments of the wait were the longest that they had waited in their lives. The elevator arrived and dinged open.They stepped in and Xavier noticed a camera in the corner with a beeping red light. They were being watched. Zoe noticed the elevator had options for four floors, one, two, three, and the last button with the same seal as on the door that got them there. Instantly, Zoe pressed that button.To their surprise, a voice sounded from the elevator confirming Xavier's conclusion that they were being watched."What will happen if a pair of Moonstones is found?" A female voice asked. Zoe nearly jumped and looked around, "Who is it?"Xavier nudged her, motioned for the camera,

    >Xavier and Zoe exchanged glances.Were they supposed to make up a good lie? Improvise? Or tell the truth?No, truth seemed to be the worst option. How could they explain anything to humans when they had so many unanswered questions?The receptionist tapped her pen on her notepad impatiently."What do we do?" Zoe asked through the mind link desperately."I have a plan. Just go with what I say, okay?" Xavier replied."Ma'am-" Before Xavier could have another word out, the receptionist's facial expression and body language changed."What are you?" She asked almost threateningly."Excuse me, I don't-" Xavier started but was interrupted again."No! No stories or lies. Don't you dare. Do you even know where you are?" She stood up. Her eyes were cold. They were two against one in the room, and one of them was the youngest Alpha Councilor, yet the receptionist was more intimidating. "Enlighten us," Zoe stood up as well, followed by Xavier. Things were escalating and not in a fri

    >Zoe glanced at Xavier from the corner of her eye but the elder lady's authoritative glare rooted her on the spot. She didn't know what to tell. She barely had any memories of her mother. All she did have was an unopened letter, which she still hadn't had the courage to open yet. So, how could she explain why she had taken extreme measures to enter such a tightly secured and secret establishment?"I don't have all day." The elder lady raised an impatient brow expectantly."Who am I answering to, ma'am." Zoe tried to buy some time in vain."I am the one in charge of your fate. So, be quick with your answers, and don't try to be smart with me." The elderly woman had not raised her voice; somehow, her calm was more threatening, "Let's start with your and her name."Zoe took a deep breath and a desperate leap of faith, "I am Zoe Simmons. Daughter of Joe and Aroosa Simmons." Saying her mother's name felt weird. Especially, after how far her father had gone to make sure that no

    >It took me a few minutes until a vine design caught my eye. It expressed my twisted life and my state of mind perfectly."This one, on the shaved side of my head," I told Judy.She took a look at the table, "This one will take five hours, at least. Possibly more." She looked at me, "Have you ever had a tattoo before?" I shook my head."I'd recommend a small quote on a wrist to see if you can handle it for the first time, instead of going straight to the scalp. It's a sensitive area." Judy advised."I can handle. Pain is a kind of a bestie now." I couldn't tell her that being with Dahlia had heightened my pain tolerance and once you break all bones of your body to turn into a werewolf-Lycan hybrid, nothing else can hurt as much."One last question," Judy placed her hands on her hips sassily, "With everything you just told me that you've lost. How will you pay for the tattoo? As sorry as I feel for you, this ain't no charity here, sweetheart.""We'll pay through this," Xa

    >We started walking in the direction opposite Silver Moon."Oh, come on!" Xavier yelled behind another van that did not stop for us, making me smile."Maybe they are intimidated by you," I said, trying to hide how amused I was at his behavior. The great Alpha Shaw getting frustrated because a vehicle didn't stop for him."If it's so funny to you, why don't you try it?" He frowned. I guess I wasn't as great at hiding my amusement as I thought I was. Or maybe I didn't really want to."Sure," I took the challenge, "Stay out of sight if you can," I said while making him walk near the ditch on the side of the road, as I sinched up the waist of my dress tighter and pushed up my breasts to show some cleavage."What are you doing?" Xavier asked, sounding jealous and protective."Using what Moon Goddess gave me," I smirked. I had been waiting for the opportunity to get back at him for walking around naked in front of me. Of course, I wasn't going to take off my dress, but this was

    >Zoe was stunned as the cave if the mouth closed like a mountain as if there was never a cave opening to begin with. Even though Xavier knew what he was doing, he hadn't seen the artifact in action. So, he was equally surprised and impressed that it had worked to perfection. "Where did Maisie get that?" Zoe asked in dibelief still staring the magic that had happened before her eyes. "She didn't. She made it." Xavier said and turned around. He quickly erased as many car tracks as he could or covered those he couldn't before returning to Zoe,"We shouldn't waste anymore time, I'll shift and you hold on tight, alright?" He could've made a suggestive joke about it but he seemed too alert and suddenly in a hurry. "Alright," Zoe replied before asking cautiously, "Xavier, is everything okay?" "I'm not sure yet, " He looked around suspiciously, "Whatever it is, it's too far for now," Then he turned to her seriously, "Let's not wait for it to reach us." With that, he was alr

    >Spike gave up control back to Xavier, who shifted to his human form, buck naked in all his glory.At first, Zoe tried to look elsewhere, believing it was a mistake on his part because they were in a state of extreme worry and hurry. But then, he tilted his head at her reaction and sauntered over confidently, not caring about his nakedness or the dirt and humus sticking to his bare feet.Instead of going to the back of the car and getting dressed, he stood before Zoe until she looked him right in the eyes, "I see clothes are not an option right now." She said sarcastically.He leaned in sensually and whispered in her ear with a smirk, "Nothing you haven't seen before."Not wanting to let him see the effect that he had on her, "In case you have forgotten, we are still on the run. We need to cross that border." She made sure that practiced extreme self-control and did not let her eyes wander anywhere. The kiss that they had shared did not mean that she was ready for the next

  • Lycan Queen   Crossing Border

    >Xavier had no idea what was happening but trusted his mate and her animal.So, he pressed gas and they did not stop until they were near the Silver Moon borders. Zoe and Xavier exchanged confused glances as they stopped behind a long queue."What are they doing?" Xavier muttered to himself as he craned his neck out the window to look at what was happening at the border."What do you see? Who is doing what?" Zoe asked worriedly. Dahlia was still agitated and wanted them to leave the Silver Moon territory as soon as possible. Xavier sat back, "I don't know, but Imma check it out." He got out of the car and walked to the car ahead of them. He bent at the window and asked the driver, "Hi, do you know what is going on here? When did Silver Moon tighten border security?" After all, they had entered yesterday and there was no one to stop them."The Alpha gave the order early in the morning to check and record every individual and vehicle that passes through all border gates fro

    >It took a while for Dahlia to give up on Zoe's exhausted form and return the control of her body. Just like the first time, Zoe fainted instantly. Xavier found her lying in the street with John's mangled corpse beside his vehicle which they hadn't noticed parked across the street from the house when they had arrived earlier. He shifted back and carried her naked form indoors. First, he cleaned himself up and borrowed a suit from Joe Simmons' wardrobe. Then, he used a wet towel to clean Zoe up and then, picked a sky blue mid-length dress with white cotton flowers print from her closet and dressed her up as well.Then, while he waited for Zoe to regain consciousness, he dragged all the dead bodies of the rogues into the woods. He fixed the living room as much as he could and then, he went to the woods to make a pyre for Aunt Julie. She had a major role in Zoe's life and more importantly, she was an honorable werewolf who died trying to protect her loved ones. She deserved

  • Lycan Queen   Massacre

    [This chapter contains mentions of gore, torture, and loss of body parts. Reader discretion is advised.]>Zoe did not know what to believe anymore. Was Aunt Julie truly dead? Was it really John standing in front of her claiming to have killed Aunt Julie? She had so many questions. How was he there? Why wasn't John paying for his crimes in some dark dungeon?Xavier was ready to pounce on John at any moment, "Give me one good reason not to tear you to shreds right here, right now!"Anyone looking at Xavier would have fainted due to fright. But, John merely stood with his head held high and his hands in his pockets like his life wasn't being threatened by an Alpha with a wolf twice his size."How about I give you three?" John smirked and lazily leaned against the kitchen island, "First, if you kill me here and now, you will be declared a murderer and wanted for werewolfcide on foreign territory by none other than your own father. Papa Shaw is very upset, Xavier."Xavier knew

  • Lycan Queen   Something is Wrong

    >The next morning Zoe felt rejuvenated. Her problems were still there but there was a change that was unexpected yet welcome.Xavier woke up with a smile on his face for the first time in a long while. Most of his problems were still there, but there was one issue that had been weighing on his heart the most and that was resolved last night. He understood that they still had a long way to go and things might take a while before going the way he wanted them to, but he was glad for the great start.They had a light breakfast, and Zoe took the steering wheel, deciding not to comment on his driving the previous day or what had happened between them the last night.Halfway through, she turned on the radio, surprising Xavier even more. By the time they crossed the Silver Moon border, Zoe and Xavier were singing along to the songs like they were returning from the best trip of their lives. Werewolves need a special kind of alcohol to get drunk because of their higher metabolism t

    >"I remember star gazing with my mother," Xavier spoke softly, careful not to break the delicate moment they had stolen from the mess of their life."You remember your mother? Lucky you." Zoe replied, matching his tone."She was kind. Kinder than most people I've met in my life. She was like that cool breeze on a hot summer day that makes you feel like everything would be okay." Xavier reminisced about his mother.He hadn't talked about her in a long time but being there, so high above the rest of the sleeping world, he felt like he could tell Zoe anything and be understood. He had a lot to say that he had been keeping inside of him for too long."You miss her," it was not a question but an obvious statement like, "You've never talked about her before.""Since her death, Father became a much harsher man. Once the only source of empathy and kindness was gone from my life, he made sure I never talked about her. Even to myself." Xavier confessed, not taking his eyes off the s
