Panther's Pet Back from the Dead
How could those witches be alive when we all watched them die? My heart was racing in my chest as Malcolm, my brother Roman, and I drove toward where they were buried—the location where we'd previously encountered the Death Stalker. Was I prepared to face that monster again? Even thinking about it gave me nightmares. The stalker was about to kill Emily and me the last time we saw it. Now I was returning there—and I wasn't sure I was prepared for what we might find. The sun was setting when we arrived. I knew we had to find something soon if we were going to find it. We got out of the car and exchanged glances before proceeding to the cabin where the witches Amelia, Syliva, London, and Eden were buried. As we walked across the field, I felt a chill run through my body that had nothing to do with the wind. As we got closer to Eden's grave, I noticed that it was the only one that was open. When I fell backward into a sitting position against the cabin wall, alarm bells went off in my he
Panther's Pet Ancient Power
MalcolmMy panther spirit, raging within me, had been unleashed in a fury and was on the hunt for a certain witch who had been trying to destroy me since the moment I met her. That's when I realized she had to be a descendant of the witches who cursed my ancestors. She was going to have to pay. They were all going to pay. I'd had enough of being the nice guy in this scenario. It was time to get down to business. I had no idea what kind of powers this witch possessed, but I knew if she wanted a fight, we were going to give her one."Eden!" I roared into the sky as a scent of perfume found my nose. I knew she was around somewhere, hiding like the pathetic coward she was. "I know you're here!" I shouted as a flock of birds flew out from the trees behind me. They were probably startled by my voice and took off in a panic. A chill ran down my spine as the wind blew against me. There was something about this place that made me feel uneasy yet at home at the same time. I stood there for a mo
Panther's Pet The Wicked Witch
CatalinaWhen Ms. Cleo opened her door, I barged inside and strapped Zyria into a baby carrier that I'd brought with me—a black book in hand. "What is this?" I asked, slamming the book down on her dining room table as she looked up at me in surprise—"don't be cryptic about it either because we don't have time for games anymore.""I'm not being cryptic, I'm just confused. What are you doing here?""I'm here to find out what the hell is going on! You've been acting crazy lately and I want to know why. What's this book about? What are these names?" I was so mad that I was shaking. We'd been friends for a while and she had never treated me like this before—like a stranger. It hurt my feelings that she wouldn't confide in me about what was going on, and now it seemed like she didn't even want to look at me anymore. "What's wrong with you?"She cleared her throat before sitting down. She ran her hand over the length of her face and opened the book."It's a list of the people the witches pla
Panther's Pet With Honor
MalcolmPain shot through my entire body from the ancient one's blast to the chest. I fell to the ground, clutching my chest as I tried to breathe. My vision blurred and my ears rang. I could hear the ancient one's laughter above me as I struggled to focus on something. It was then that I realized, I couldn't feel my left hand. She then whispered to Catalina before disappearing into the night. Emily was on the ground still motionless.Catalina and I both crawled over to her. She was breathing, but her heart was beating at a very slow rate. Her eyes were closed and she looked as if she were sleeping. I shook her gently and tried to wake her up. Catalina helped me lift Emily's body over my shoulders so that we could carry her over to the couch. Once we had placed Emily on the couch, Catalina and I exchanged worried glances. The ancient one had done something to her. We just didn't know what."I think we should call the cops," Catalina said. "Or an ambulance.""No," I said. "We can't do
Panther's Pet Until the End
Catalina At Ms. Cleo's house, we set up our research station while she and Bex worked on creating the power transfer spell. The only other person capable of holding that much power was Malcolm, since he was the only one who could use this blade, we decided it was best that he take control of it. I was nervous about the whole thing. I didn't know how this would go, but we had to try it. The only thing that made me feel better was knowing that Ms. Cleo and Bex were there to help us out if anything went wrong.We all gathered in the living room, where we had set up the circle. It was a simple one, just like Ms. Cleo had taught us. The only difference was that it was much larger than normal and had a few more ingredients than we would normally use for this kind of thing. The first thing we did was to call upon all the spirits and elements of nature to come forth, so that they may lend us their power. We all stood there in silence for a few moments, waiting for something to happen. Then,
Panther's Pet The Aftermath
MalcolmIt had been days since I'd vanquished the Ancient One, and yet something still felt off. Perhaps it was the lingering magic—or maybe just nerves? In any case, everyone else seemed much happier than I was.Even with my esteemed title of a hero for saving this small town in Colorado from a coven of witches. But I couldn't shake the feeling that something was wrong. Something was very wrong.I had been wandering around town for hours, trying to figure out what was bothering me so much, only to find the townspeople were celebrating and the children were laughing. Even the spiders seemed to be smiling. It was a beautiful day, with the sun shining brightly overhead and nothing but blue skies ahead.What was wrong with me? I was just about to give up and go back home when I saw a familiar face. It was the deputy, a large man with wild hair and dark eyes who looked as if he hadn't slept for days. He was walking down the street slowly, his face pale and drawn. He didn't look up as I ap
Panther's Pet Animal
CatalinaThere's no way I wasn't madly in love with this man. I watched Malcolm as he slept soundly beside me with a huge smile on my face. He was everything I could've ever wanted in a man, and more—and he was my soul mate. The way he made me feel when I was around him was indescribable; there were no words that could explain it. He was simply everything. And he was an amazing father to Zyria too, I was feeling defeated earlier trying to get her to stop crying, and he swooped in with his magic touch, and she finally fell asleep. It had been a long day, and I was exhausted. I'd been awake since four in the morning, but I felt energized being around him. He was so easy to be around, and he made me feel like anything was possible—like we could be together forever.The more I was drawn to him, the more I wanted my memories back. He had been so patient with me—understanding and supportive as I tried to recover my past. But he never pushed me or made me feel bad about it; he just let me ta
Panther's Pet Infatuation
MalcolmHer eyes in the mirror looking back at me while I was inside her and hearing her moan with pleasure were the only thing keeping me from going on a rampage at the time. Another witch had broken into our house, and I wouldn't feel at peace until I destroyed all of them. But right now, holding her close to me in the aftermath of our lovemaking was the only thing that would ease my mind.I ran my fingers through her hair, brushing it back from her face as she looked up at me with those big eyes of hers. Her lips were swollen from our kisses, and I couldn't help but kiss them again. I was lost in the moment and didn't want to leave her side. I knew that we would have to go after the witches later, but for now, I wanted nothing more than to hold her all night."Let's try to get some sleep before Zyria wakes up." I said, leading her back into the bedroom. I pulled the covers back for her, and she crawled into bed. I followed behind her, pulling her body close to mine as we fell aslee

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 Surprise!

She deserved the world, and I would give it to her. I'd been planning this proposal for months, and even though I was nervous as hell, I couldn't wait to see her face when she realized what was happening. Our relationship had been rocky from the start, but I knew that deep down we were meant for each other—and this moment would prove it once and for all.Roman and Emily were in on the surprise. Catalina thought they were going out to dinner because the curse had been lifted over Emily and she wanted to celebrate and spend time with her like old times. She had no idea that she was about to be proposed to.Roman and Emily took Catalina to an Asian fusion restaurant downtown. The ambiance was perfect for a romantic evening out. Catalina loved it and couldn’t stop talking about how much she loved Asia
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
Panther's Pet Beast
"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
