Hunter-
“You think you are smart, don’t you?” The sound of a female voice rang out.
I couldn’t see the female, but I knew who it was. For months I have been playing her game, trying to get her to think that I was going to agree to her terms. I had made myself go crazy from it also.
There were days that maybe I thought I really did cave. Keeping my act and reality separate became more and more difficult as the days seemed to run together. She wanted my loyalty, which I would never give her, but when I had decided to play along in a sense, I realized it was a bad idea.
I have found myself on occasions believing the words I spoke as I tried to convince her she was getting inside my head. The last time she had been here I had even offered my body to her. Thankfully she had turned it down.
I hated that I was lowering myself to keep up this act. Nothing else I have tried to get free was working. The more time that passed the more
Hunter-“What do you want with Caleb?” I asked, while I was trying to think of a way out of this.“I want him gone.” She stated.“Why? What does Caleb have to do with you?” I asked.“Because he is an unknown entity that I don’t like. For some reason, since he has returned to Kyra, his future is unknown to my sisters. When one possesses the powers of a God but isn’t a God, it is troublesome for us. He is not held down by the same laws that we are, which makes him a danger to us all.” She said as if she was becoming bored with the conversation already.“What do you mean?” I inquired, my mind trying to make sense of everything.She went on to tell me about Cronus and her father, as well as what all happened for her father to become the God that we all knew. She explained that along the line, Cronus had slept with many others and created many children. Along those children w
Kyra-Sleeping in the guest room wasn’t turning out the way I thought it would. I wasn’t sure how long I laid in bed, but I couldn’t fall asleep. Nothing I have tried has worked.For probably the millionth time, I tossed and turned until I was laying on my right side. I don’t know why, but I couldn’t get my mind to settle. It wasn’t that I was thinking about anything in particular either.Sighing, I reached for my phone. Idly, I scrolled through my phone looking for something to do. Checking the time, I figured everyone was probably asleep except for whoever was on patrol currently.I couldn’t bother them since they were tasked with keeping alert, even though I was sure none of them would mind if I bothered them. I looked through the games on my phone I had, which weren’t many, but none seemed appealing.Not wanting to bother anyone, I thought about going to my art studio to work on a painting I was d
Caleb-I knew I should stop this, but she felt so good pressed against my body. She was my weakness. I doubted I could tell her no even if asked.I wanted to question her, yet I didn’t at the same time. Whatever had brought on this, I just wanted to enjoy it. I had considered separating the two of us, but I couldn’t bring myself to do so.Clearing my mind, focused on her lips as they moved against mine. Moving my hands up her arms, I enjoyed the warmth of her skin. My hands moved to her jawline, where I caressed her cheeks with my thumbs.She moaned against my mouth, driving me instantly insane with lust. She was naked against my body, yet I was doing nothing to take her. Throwing caution to the wind, I turned us both around until her back was facing the bed.Guiding her backward, I stopped when I felt her bump slightly against the side of the bed. Without needing encouragement, she lowered to the bed, pulling me with her. Placing one k
Kyra- For the first time, since I can’t remember when, I slept peacefully. When I woke in Caleb’s arms this morning, I had found him in probably the most awkward sleeping position. I had tried to wake him so he could get more comfortable, but he just wrapped his arms tighter around me. I didn’t get out of bed right away, instead, I just lay there. I expected to be plagued with regret or something, considering I hadn’t wanted a repeat of recent events. However, I felt like things were going in the direction they were meant to go. After everything that has happened, I started to realize it wasn’t the bond between us that made me feel the way I do. Not that it didn’t play a role in things, but I could truly believe that what I felt for Caleb, was more than just the mate bond. I was falling in love with Caleb. Perhaps already have. “I like feeling you happy like this.” I heard Ace’s voice flood my mind. “Is it wrong for me to think I could be happ
Kyra-Shortly after arriving in the room, Mel had left to go grab something. I thought she would return right away, but she has been gone for about five minutes now. I was beginning to get nervous.“I can feel your anxiety all the way over here,” Caleb said from across the room.Currently, he was sitting in one of the chairs that lined the wall, while I was sitting on the table with a hospital gown on that Mel told me to change into. He was right, I was feeling anxious.Looking down at my hands, that was positioned on my lap, I noticed I was picking my nails. In all my years of knowing Mel, I never felt weird coming into the hospital wing. Even when her father was the pack doctor, he had made me feel welcomed.Now if felt as if I was a lab experiment or something. It was like I was waiting on Mel to come back in and look at me like a freak. I haven’t felt like that in a long time. At least not since learning the truth of who I was
Kyra-Finally, after what felt like an eternity, Mel finished what she was doing and turned towards Caleb and me. I couldn’t read the expression on her face. In fact, I barely even recognized her anymore. It was as if she were a stranger to me.“I have to admit, I am a bit surprised at the results today.” Mel began, her voice sounding bleak.“What is it?” I asked while pushing off the bed to stand next to it.I knew I was probably a bit more eager than I should be, but the wait was killing me. I have spent so much time stressing over the well-being of my child, that I was starting to feel like I was going to burst if she didn’t tell me something. I couldn’t help but think she was intentionally keeping me in the dark.“I don’t know how to explain this exactly,” Mel spoke, turning her back towards me to look at the light board.“Just tell me!” I urged, my voice raising a b
Kyra-I didn’t know who was more floored about what Lucas said, me or Caleb. When I looked over at Caleb, his face was filled with stark fear. I wasn’t sure why I looked at him when Lucas said I was carrying two babies.It wasn’t like I haven’t had twins before. I just wasn’t sure how exactly it was possible for me to become pregnant again, while I was already pregnant. Now the question was, who’s the baby was?Could I have gotten pregnant twice with Hunter, or was one of the babies Caleb’s? Looking away from Caleb, I wondered if that was his thought as well. We may be doing good, but I wasn’t sure that now was a good time for us to be having a child together.“How is this possible?” I asked Lucas when I returned my attention to him.“It is a rare occurrence, but it does happen. Basically, it means you ovulated twice. Once when the first pregnancy took place, then once more a couple
Hunter-“You summoned me?” I asked Artemis as I walked up behind her.I wasn’t sure how many prisons she had, but I think by now I have come across over a hundred. There were a lot more than that, only I haven’t been able to explore too much. This land was constantly changing, making it difficult to find my way around.The only way I could even navigate anywhere was when I was looking for Artemis. It was as if she had a beacon or something around her. All I had to do was think about her and I knew where to find her.“You did so great with the last one that I wanted to see how you would do with this one.” She spoke.For the past few years, or I guess it hasn’t been that long. I don’t remember anything about what happened since the day that Artemis pulled me from the river. She was very secretive, which I hated.She saved me from drowning in the river, so I owed her a life debt. I still didn&rsqu
