Panther's Pet Don't Come Looking for Me
CatalinaTonight was a full moon, the perfect time to send an evil shadow and the specter back to its rightful place--Hell. I had been mentally preparing for the task at hand all day. I wanted to believe that everything would go as planned, but something was gnawing at my insides, and I couldn't put my finger on it. We had a solid plan in place, with two backups. What were we forgetting? I spent the night before reading everything I could find on evil spirits and other supernatural creatures. I knew these weren't the source of my uneasiness, but I was determined to cover all bases. My mind kept returning to an image of Bex. Was she somehow involved in this? Because the shadow didn't appear until she disappeared. Was she the first victim of the shadow? The shadow did attack others, but it mostly tormented pregnant women. Hmmm? Was she expecting? Was that why she chose to vanish? Perhaps it was time to pay a visit to her city girlfriend.Emily and my brother wanted to accompany me just

Catalina We could see Ms. Cleo dancing around the kitchen with a ladle in her hand when we arrived at her home; we figured that she was making her legendary jambalaya. She was a native of New Orleans in every sense of the word. I could smell Cajun spices wafting through the air, and it made me want to lick my lips. Instantly, she opened the door before I had the chance to even knock on it. She answered with a grin, "Ah, I was expecting you," as she looked at me inquisitively. She first greeted me with a peck on the cheek, and then she put her hand on my stomach. "That baby girl of yours is sprouting up like a weed, child. Please, come in." She greeted us with a warm welcome and led us on a tour of the house. Every room in the house, from the kitchen to the living room, exuded an atmosphere that was warm and inviting. We could feel the love that she and her family had for each other, and we marveled at the decorations that adorned the walls."So, tell me more about your missing frien

I sat in stunned silence, staring at the room full of friends. Ms. Cleo, Emily, and Bex had pulled out all the stops to make this day special, taking extra care to make sure that each item matched the colors of the baby’s room. Everything from the cute little baby booties to the personalized nameplate for the crib was a perfect fit for the shower. I was so thankful to have such wonderful friends in my life, who had gone out of their way to make sure that this special day was memorable. As I gazed around the room, I couldn’t help but feel a sense of appreciation for all of my friends and family that had come out to support me and celebrate the upcoming arrival of my child. But in the midst of all of this joy, one person was not present. My mother. As much as I tried to push the sadness away, I couldn’t help but feel like something was missing. I had hoped that she would be here to witness such an important moment in my life and share in this special occasion. With a heavy heart, I a

Imagine my surprise when my mother called me this morning to set up a lunch date. She stated that she wished to make amends and begin again. So the entire drive to the cafe was nerve-racking as I hoped everything would go well and that she wouldn't change her mind when she saw how pregnant I was. My heart was racing as I approached the cafe. I parked by the curb outside the cafe and took a deep breath. Were we prepared for this? We weren't exactly close before this. I mean, she and my father barely paid attention to me. My brother Roman was the one who looked after me. But here we were, trying to rebuild our relationship from the ground up.I couldn't help but smile when I walked into the cafe and saw my mother. We talked about a lot of things, and she even admitted to making mistakes with me when she was younger. At that point, tears welled up in my eyes because, for the first time in years, my mother was attempting to understand me. Our lunch date turned into an emotional discussion

Malcolm It had been hours since Catalina went to have lunch with her mom, and neither of them was answering the phone. So I called Roman to see if he knew where she was. And when he said he was having trouble getting a hold of them too, an alarm sounded off in my head. Something was seriously wrong. I was beginning to fear the worst, and so I quickly jumped in my car and drove to their last known location, hoping that they had simply gone out and gotten lost or maybe run into some other kind of trouble. As I drove, my mind raced with thoughts of what might have happened to them. When I arrived at the bistro where they had lunch, I noticed her car was still there, but her mother's car was nowhere to be found. Emily's car was parked behind me, and out jumped her, Roman, and Bex. We began questioning the staff to see if they saw anything out of the ordinary."Yeah, I saw that poor pregnant lady faint on the sidewalk, but a woman, I am guessing it was her mother, helped her up, and she p

I navigated my way through the thicket, which led me to a run-down cabin in the middle of the forest. The Ford car was parked in the driveway. I could hear the police sirens off in the distance, so I knew I had to get in there quickly before the witches became alarmed by the noise. I mentally prepared myself, took a few deep breaths, and then slowly inched my way inside, following a hint of Catalina's floral fragrance. It was a warm breeze, which suggested that she was still alive and, hopefully, unharmed. If she was, there was no telling what my panther would do. It was a moment that felt like an eternity; one wrong move, and I could startle the witches and put Catalina's life in danger. It was a risk I was willing to take; she was my mate. The mother of my unborn child. The only thing that mattered now was getting her back and making sure she would be safe from harm. I carefully took another step forward, and then another. Finally, I was in the house. My panther had me covered from

Catalina I'd been too afraid to leave the house since the witches kidnapped me. Eating was a chore, and even moving was more difficult than usual. When I realized that woman was not my mother, my soul and heart were shattered into a million pieces. She hadn't called to rekindle our relationship. Everything was a lie, and my real mother couldn't care less about reconciling with me. Suddenly, all the memories of my childhood were replaced with a feeling of betrayal and sadness. Do I mean nothing to her? Does she even care that she is going to be a grandmother? Despite the hurt and confusion that I felt, I had to keep going for the sake of my own family. Today, I had to get out of bed and face the reality that a relationship with my own mother may never happen. That evil witch! I expected to be sacrificed in some way, but pretending to be my mother was the ultimate low blow, leaving me with an even scarier thought. How did she know my mother's appearance? How did she know how my mother

CatalinaI tossed and turned all night. I kept dreaming about going into labor and everything under the sun going wrong. I woke up the next morning with a headache and couldn’t get back to sleep. I was so nervous about going into labor that I couldn’t focus on anything else. I got in the shower and tried to relax as much as possible.What did those witches do to me? Malcolm refused to talk about that day they had kidnapped me. He said that he had been so angry with them for what they did, he couldn’t even think about it. He’d rather leave it in the past. I understood his feelings on the subject, but I wanted answers. I couldn’t stop thinking about what they had done to me. I didn’t know if it was because of their magic or just a weird coincidence but I couldn’t help feeling like they were responsible for my current situation. I walked into the kitchen and poured myself a glass of orange juice. My stomach was still turning from everything that had happened, but I needed to eat somethi

Panther's Pet A Magical Union
Catalina I gazed at my reflection, fingers trembling as I adjusted the delicate lace of my wedding dress. The mirror revealed a woman I barely recognized - poised, radiant, on the cusp of a new chapter. Yet beneath the surface, butterflies danced in my stomach."You've got this, Cat," I whispered, meeting my own eyes. "Remember how far you've come."Memories flooded back - late nights in the library, stolen glances across the lecture hall, that fateful day I'd mustered the courage to ask Professor Wright for an extension. Who could have imagined where that simple request would lead?I smoothed my hands over the silk bodice, tracing the intricate beadwork. Each tiny crystal felt like a milestone on our journey - first kiss, first shift, first "I love you." My chest tightened with a heady mix of excitement and nerves."Deep breaths," I reminded myself. "Malcolm is waiting."At the thought of him, a smile tugged at my lips. My brilliant, passionate Malcolm. The man who saw past my fumbl
Panther's Pet Reminisce
MalcolmI adjusted my tie for the hundredth time, staring at my reflection in the full-length mirror. The man looking back at me was both familiar and foreign - the same dark eyes and strong jawline, but there was a softness there now, a vulnerability I'd never allowed myself before."You clean up nice, old man," I muttered, smoothing down my jacket.My fingers trembled slightly as I fiddled with my cufflinks. In just a few hours, I'd be marrying Catalina - the thought both thrilled and terrified me. How had I, Malcolm Wright, confirmed bachelor and reclusive academic, ended up here? Catalina's acceptance of my true nature was the first crack in the walls I'd built around myself."You know," I muse aloud, "I used to think laughter was a frivolous distraction from serious academic pursuits."My best man, Roman, raises an eyebrow. "And now?""Now," I chuckle, "I can't imagine a day without hearing Catalina's laugh. It's like... sunshine breaking through storm clouds."Roman grins. "Who
Panther's Pet Diamonds & Daydreams
CatalinaThe sunlight streamed through the window, bathing the room in a warm, golden glow. It illuminated the diamond nestled delicately on my finger, causing it to shimmer and sparkle like a tiny star. As I shifted my hand, the light refracted, scattering soft, colorful rainbows across the wall, each glimmer more dazzling than the last. I found myself mesmerized, unable to tear my gaze away from this exquisite gem—a perfect embodiment of Malcolm's deep love and unwavering commitment to me. Each time I caught a glimpse of it, my heart would flutter with a mix of joy and warmth, a gentle reminder of the bond we shared and the promise that lay within that beautiful stone."I still can't believe it," I whispered to myself, twirling the ring around my finger. The weight of it was unfamiliar but comforting, like Malcolm's strong arms around me.I closed my eyes, allowing myself to sink into the cherished memory of his proposal. The warmth of that moment wrapped around me like a comforting
Panther's Pet Yes to the Dress
CatalinaI was the luckiest woman on earth when, just a short time after we met, Malcolm proposed marriage to me. It seemed like such a dream—but every time I glanced down at the gorgeous ring on my finger and remembered that special moment it became real again. To say I was surprised would be an understatement.But a part of me has always wondered if it's because we already have one child—but the little things he does for me every day prove otherwise. The way he looked at me, his touch…it all filled in the gaps and made our love real again. I just needed to stop second-guessing our relationship; especially after everything that we had been through; he deserved at least that. Plus, Malcolm had put his life and career on the line for me time and time again. It wasn't just his love that made me realize how special he was; it was also the way he treated me. He made sure to take care of me, even when I didn't feel like it. And every time I felt like giving up, he was there to remind me wh

Panther's Pet Beast Part: 2
Malcolm My bones cracked and popped at a rate that my mind couldn't keep up with. Then I leaped out onto the porch and ripped into the first witch that caught my eye. But they keep coming and chanting, and the chanting got louder. So I had to kill them faster to stop the ringing in my ears. The more blood I tasted on my tongue, the deeper it drove me into insanity. When there was a clearing, Roman and Catalina dashed to the car, and I lost sight of them. Ms. Cleo was surrounded by witches. I fought my way to her, slashing through the witches with my heavy paws, feeling the power of rage inside me.The witches were no match for me; their blood spilled out as I growled with fury, and the thunderous of my voice echoed in the sky. The witches scrambled away in terror, and I reached Ms. Cleo. She was trying to extinguish the fire engulfing her home. but it was already too late.I watched helplessly as the flames engulfed her house until there was nothing left of it.Ms. Cleo collapsed to

"Do you hear that?" I asked her.She nodded. We both looked up at the ceiling of the tunnel, where the light from our flashlights began to bounce off something shiny above us—something wet and dripping down onto us like raindrops falling on leaves in summertime. "What is that?" I asked. "Blood," Bex said. We looked at each other and then back down the tunnel, where we could see the light from our flashlights reflected in several eyes staring back at us. There was nothing else to do but run. I don’t know if you have ever been chased by a coven of creepy witches, but it's not something I would recommend. The witches were angry, and they were fast. We ran through the tunnels as if we had been born with wings on our feet, but it was no use. The witches were gaining ground.The tunnel narrowed, and the walls were closing in around us. We ran faster, but it was no use. They had us cornered. There was nowhere else to go except back where we had come from. The witches were right behind us whe
Panther's Pet The Cave
CatalinaBex pointed at the tree again. "Is this where we need to be?" She asked again. The witch nodded, then walked away with a wave of her hand as if dismissing us. Bex and I looked at each other with wide eyes. Then we started walking toward the tree. We stood in front of it for a moment before Bex took my hand and pulled me behind her into a large hole in the ground.I looked around in awe. The tree roots were everywhere, and it was like we were standing inside a cave made of earth and trees. There were torches on the walls that lit up the space well enough for us to see where we were going. I had no idea where we were headed or what would happen when we got there, but at that moment, all I could think was how beautiful everything looked under the light of those flames. "Stay close to me," Bex whispered as held onto my hand.I nodded and followed her deeper into the cave. I didn't know how long we walked, but eventually, it opened up into a large room with what looked like painti
Panther's Pet The Coven
"We need to try," I said as my voice cracked. "There's no other choice." Ms. Cleo nodded and began to chant again. I stood there watching her, wondering if this would be our last chance at saving Emily.I looked at the table, trying to focus on it. My eyes seemed to be glued to it, and I couldn't look away. I could feel my heart racing as the minutes passed by. The room was silent except for Ms. Cleo's chanting, which had become louder and more intense. I looked at the table again and saw that it was beginning to move. At first, I thought it was just my imagination, but then I saw that the table itself was moving. It started to shake violently, like an earthquake had hit us. Ms. Cleo stopped chanting and stood up from her chair, looking around the room as if she were trying to figure out what was happening.The table continued to shake, and then, without warning, it flipped over, sending all of the items on top of it flying into the air. Ms. Cleo screamed as she tried to catch them bef
