Soon as they reached the compound, Noah was half-dragging Vanessa, their hands held tightly together.

"Simon." He said, as men usually did, a bye. Indicating that he and Vanessa needed to talk and he'd have to wait, no matter how long it took them to get to the bottom of this.

She was seething behind him. If, he could find some restraint on his mouth breathing Neanderthal ways, she could meet him in the middle.

"Noah. I am not going anywhere with you." She put her foot down, literally. He had to stop then.

His eyes, black of abyss, reflected back her anger. Noah had practiced, with every fibre of his being, to blunt the edges of his need, his anger, his wants so they wouldn't spearhead a life crafted with care, each minute detail splayed for scrutiny. Not that anyone now told him how things under his control should be done. In the relative past, when he was still an Alpha in training, they had. And the lessons tattooed themselves on his very soul.

    "Don't. Don't distract me." She heaved a sigh. His thumbs grazed the ankle, feather light touches, meant to evoke comfort but all she felt was the need for his hands to travel upwards and do what they were so adept at. Noah didn't realize, at first, that his attempt to simply touch her, without an ulterior motive could tighten his body all over. Damn it. It was her, he thought. The way she sighed, melted at the briefest touch. "I like my hands on you." His wolf didn't resist this confession. He was astonished at how Vanessa's wolf lurked in the shadows this time. "I can sense your wolf."Vanessa simply nodded and hung her head. She was tamer than him. Her wolf was more attuned to her need for a clear head. It never poked in matters the human had not yet processed. "I… accept it. What you said. I don't understand how our ancestors lived with it. But it's not your fault."His wolf yipped in glee. The relief coursing through his body was the last straw. "I could eat you right now."

    The door shifted an inch, a crack open, anyone inside could see she was standing there gathering straws of courage. She had let things sour between them. Why can't she apologize and set it right? Oh. Because now she knew something about Evan he hadn't told her. She was privy to a life event, that she was sure, shaped him to be the boy he is today."Come in already. You'll give me anxiety and look like a stalker out there." A voice so husky, not any less male, instructed from behind the door. She quickly climbed three steps and stepped inside.Silas occupied the weary leather chair, running his wrinkled hands on his faded jeans. She felt something tug at her heart, more guilt. This man had practically raised her where her parents had not shown up for the one thing they had to do-care for her. He hadn't aged a day. Momentarily Evan forgotten, she circled Silas in her arms, tucking his head under her chin. He let out a warm laugh. Delight poked at the edges of morose energy Evan had p

    “That day, Mikhail asked me to to tail an operation, dead for twenty years. Up in Wyoming, a drug bust lead to capture of huge amount of acotine and unprocessed mercury. We have to keep an eye on these things anyway. So I assumed it was a simple case of an old drug route re-opened. As for the mercury, someone could’ve used the abandoned warehouse to store it. That was our problem, not that of human police force. And no matter how fat ther pockets we make, they have more up their sleeves they can ask for. I was not in the mood to negotiate numbers and thankfully I didn’t have to. A bunch of changelings barfed all they knew with the right amount of cocaine up their noses. I am not proud of it but I did them no harm.” His redemption might not be quick to come at this stage, but his search reflected in how defensive he sounded. “We have a fair tolerance for such things. Way better than humans.” It was Silas who spoke, pinning Evan with a hard gaze. “Right. Yes. I drove for another t

    Evan slammed his cup on the table, left over tea sloshing and spilling everywhere. “You don’t say that, okay? No hybrid lives beyond the first fifteen years of their life. Cruel fate. I saw the hybrids where I lived. The pseudo-academy leaves them more confused than the outside world could. Your age might give you an insight we don’t have, old man, but dont for a minute think we are innocent. Me, Mikhail or Noah.”With that, he slammed the door mumbling something about needing fresh air. “How have your nightmares been Vanessa?”She took a moment to collect her thoughts on an abrupt change in the topic. “Not so frequent. You know, they have evolved. I was always confused whether what I saw was happening, had already happened. But now it’s almost like watching a reel from distance. I have stopped believing them to be true. You know, after everything.”Silas nodded, “I know. But tell me, does anyone else know anything about this?”This rubbed her the wrong way, Silas had never pushed

    “Yes, Noah. The species isn’t new, just modified. Like an evolution supposed to happen in say next 50 years, happened in a year. If it stops here, they may never be able to create a force hard to defeat. But yes. As a geneticist, this is huge. To an extent, commendable.” Ashleigh looked impressed.He envied, once again, the clinical detachment. “Thank you, Ash.” He rubbed her back, the affection of old friends palpable. “Vanessa is smart. The street smart we don’t have.” By we, she meant scientists, holed up in their lab all day. “You noticed, huh?” A rhetorical question, the way he tucked her in the crooks of his arm left little room for question. “Everyone did. You can’t repeat mistakes.” He felt the wisps of hurt still between them, she was referring to herself and him. They had been more than friends once.“I won’t.” He placed a chaste kiss in her hair before letting her go.“Did you tell Simon?” He asked, gathering his things, ready to finally present this to his dad.

    A doom he had taken for a challenge. Bit right into the bait to prove his leadership would hold his people together, that he had the genteel genome of his father and a vicious, feral disposition of an animal. Everything that an Alpha needs. He had recently accepted he wasn't above delusion. Had he bitten off more than he can chew? This was no longer a dick measuring contest with fellow packs. Grant him strength, he needed a stiff drink, not that it did anything. Or a soft body to sink into. Maybe she was back at the Villa and would save him the detour to Evan's place. He wouldn't like the physical reminder of her close to him anyway. 'Mrs.Kemp, is Ms.Flynn presently there?''Yes. Got here few minutes ago.''Thank you.'Mind link served it's menial purposes. Vanessa had walked the long distance not wishing her wolf spend energy on running when it had other matters to ponder over. Silas acting her therapist only worked when she could keep a clinical distance from him. Belive it or no

    “What?” His orders were so final otherwise that he need not repeat them twice. Slow down, she doesn’t know how this works, his wolf was grooming itself right now. Waiting for the human to not push her too far, too fast. He got up and kissed her. She latched onto him like she was just as starved. Impossible, he thought. But he kissed her back with same rigor. Then gently, “Allow me this yeah? Get on the bed kitten.”Some fog, like she was drifting on the surface of water, and if she reached down with her fingers, she could dip her hands into one earthy element from another element. He picked a chair and sat in it on the foot of her bed. “Scoot back.” She did. Sitting on her back she admired him taking his shirt off, a barest hint of smile playing on his lips. She was too mesmerized to summon an outwardly reaction, her hormones taking over at the sight of planes of his abdominal muscles and thick shoulders leading to forearms that held scars from claw cuts. She wanted to kiss them so

    She was reeling from what they shared, because the physical release had unearthed something else. Noah Abel could re-invent her as a free bird, a freeness she yearned for. Make her an airborne heart. An airborne heart grows light, soars, still yet remains an earthbound thing with earthbound pains. And she feared her need for this man made her more an earthling in contrast to any other physical tethers. "You've never done this before have you?" He sincerely questioned, since she wasn't ducking her head anymore, staring like he held the black sun in his eyes"No… never." "Was it overwhelming? I have the tendency to be. Today was not easy. You can always stop me if it gets that way." Noah wanted to know he could trust her to make these decisions.Back in his arms, knowing full well the troubled shadows in his eyes had taken a back seat and she had helped him get there, was a vanity she'd rather indulge in. She kissed him on the nose. "I liked it. I like knowing you can be yourself wi

    'Love does find a way afterall. No matter what obstacles are laid before us, if our love is pure, it will win at the end, no matter what.' Vanessa thought as a smile lit her face up. She was sitting comfortably on a couch, in a large sweatshirt that belonged to Noah, now her husband.She thought back to their wedding ceremony, it was a wonderful affair filled with laughter, love and hope. All their friends had come, looking clean in their dresses and suits. Noah had left last night, in wolf form, hollering and calling loudly to the moon. A makeshift bachelor party- a wild run in the forest and then some chilled beer at a cliff with a nice view. That left Vanessa to sit back at home, thumbing through her favorite book and smiling now and then. It was midnight when she decided to call it a night and go to bed- her last night as a single lady. Just then, she caught sight of a rustling figure outside the window. It was Noah, his hair windswept and his cheeks red from being drunk. He was

    She watched his face, less shy about its location on the map of her body. He was smiling to himself, mischievous, his eyes on his work. Small pool of sweat gathered at her lower back, at the dimples he liked so much. He was finger painting.She gasped, trying to twist away as he wrote more. But he didn't have to. "Noah...." Was she going to weep? She didn't want to weep. "Is that a yes or a no?" The wolf was relaxed this time around. Like it had gotten what it wanted for the time being, she knew the decision was equally human. "Yes! Yes, I'll marry you." "If you can stop snotting, maybe then..." She hit his shoulder. When he kissed her, on the psychic plane, his wolf appeared. Battered, strong, feral. And with him- a bond. It was a great shining thing, like a falling moon. An orb born of love tumbling in the creeks, in the meadows. She had only to catch it. And she did. With it came a smaller bond-Ian. Unafraid, she linked herself to it. The distance between them felt like sph

    The last thing she remembered was his claws digging in her ass, and their pleasure sated bodies a tangle of limbs. Where was he now? Not next to her. But he had slept, the bed held his impressions. Coming to herself, she blushed. His smell was so strong on her, hers had nearly vanished. She had an inkling that these were the signs of mating bond completing itself. Even he would smell more like Vanessa than himself. The animal was playing for keeps, and it wanted to be kept as an equal. She found him sitting on the porch stairs. She grabbed his shirt, shivered at how sensitized her skin felt, trying desperately to keep herself from looking at the spot of blood on lavender sheets. Thankfully, they weren't white. His marks, teeth, hand, claws pulsed in her body. Her body held his secrets more tenderly than it did anything else. He sensed her approach, straightening his legs, making space for her between them. She went, hiding behind her hair. His content was contagious. Bare chested

    The satisfaction coursing through him was so arrogant, so unfaltering in its ownership, her wolf quivered a little in fear. If he consumed her, would she live to see another day? Intrigued, he rubbed his jaw against the inside of her legs, her scent decadent, strong. He fumbled with his jeans before pulling them down. His wolf wanted to take. To turn her around on hands and knees, mount her, and when she'd arch her neck in pleasure, take a bite. It'll hurt but he'd share the pain. "Noah?" She was still here. Legs spread, waiting for him. He smiled. His mind was playing tricks on him, he won't take her like an animal. That'll have to wait. He suddenly dipped his head and she shoved a discarded pillow to her face. Which was a good thing. Because the scream that tore out of her was no human. Her eyes shifted, her wolf begging to have her equal measure of the sensations. His eyes still on her face, he licked her between her thighs. The tender bud begged for his attention, which in h

    When he threw up his shields, she was back in front of him. Tonight, there was no leash. She wanted to play, he'll abide. The wolf bared its teeth.... She shot out with a grin. Adrenaline shot through her, she was nowhere near as fast as him. But she could read his thought clear as a bright sunny day. Apart from the high of the chase, she was humbled by the trust. He lowered his shields to nil and let her in. She had yet to do that.He was getting closer, the wolf didn't try to hide the heavy breathing, his massive lungs resounding in warning because he wanted her to know when he was near. Claws out, canines protruding, Noah was no longer human. Not a single part of him. Heart raising hard and fast, she sharpened her run into the direction of lower range, a steep one her much smaller body could maintain running at. Noah's much larger frame would tumble at this speed, so he pulled out an old trick. He laid down and rolled like a barrel. Laughter bubbled inside of her. 'Nice trick.'

    "I am sorry I made you feel unwelcome. Consider this an apology." He kissed her knuckles, a small key pressed to her palm, the soft crinkle of paper-a note. She couldn't read his thoughts anymore. But he walked away with a purpose. Dusk clambered in the Nebraska, the summer of dragging afternoons fast learning to evade the gossamery warmth for autumn seeping in sycamore trees, yellow golden leaves ready to replace the greens. Beyond the moonbeam dancing stream, stood two peaks, protecting the land from the unknowns, so many unknowns. The peaks, they are not exultant, and they no longer believe themselves to be the instrument of some great intention. They are, but a shadow of those living beings looking up at them, creatures grasping at life with stained hands. Waiting. Hoping. Vanessa hid her gasp, swallowing the thick ball of emotion in her throat. A heavy weight ruffled the decidous low hanging branches in the trees but she didn't have to turn around to know who it was. Her soul

    Home.The black villa doors opened to reveal the place she had thought would save her from the mountain of debt she had buried herself under. The debt was the answer she had been waiting for, and apparently so was Silas. Greggory Flynn, she had kept his ashes in a thurible, had never given her complete answers. They arrived, to find Mikhail, Beatrice and Rourke waiting for them in the foyer. Vanessa was searching for Mrs.Kemp and her cupcake smelling apron. Beatrice looked healthier but the awkward distance between her and Mikhail didn't go unnoticed by anyone. "This here, little heathen, has more body count than me, brother. What do you say to that?" Evan dragged Vanessa from under Noah's arm to his side, strangling her in a side hug. Vanessa was beyond grateful. She didn't know how to break ice with Mikhail. The last time he had her tied to a chair in the basement, he had his reasons but that didn't make it okay. She didn't know where to go with him from here. She loved Noah but

    Vanessa shuffled inside her closet, her claustrophobia all but gone. She was done packing but not ready to head back home. Things felt so incomplete. In past two days, she had tried to access Calvin's mind but had failed. When all of them, Selene, Falkner, Silas, Noah, Evan and Jodie convene for finalizing border control policies she had to tell them. She wanted everyone to know there were others like her, the Communion will want a hard proof. "Come in." She knew it was Evan. "Hii. I am resigning. Consider this official." He had been in a jolly good mood, he always was when he worked on secret plans but this time, Vanessa knew it was about Jodie. His mind was a back to back movie night on weekends, filled with lewd imagery of things he'd like to do to her.The powers did have it's shortcomings. "Resigning?" His shields were up. "Yes." Evan folded his legs, sat on the newly purchased futon, which Noah had gifted Vanessa because she liked to sleep on the floor. Bed after thirty six

    He begrudgingly admitted nudity was her last preserve right now. She shifted but did a very poor job of hiding herself, the swell of her ass, small and pert with tan lines- he groaned- held his attention. Until he moved it to her shoulder. Stripes, more stripes of red, white, yellow, blue. What the fuck was it? How did she get bruises this bad? Before he could ask, she begged for a clothing. Anything he might have. He stripped off his shirt and threw it to her. She scrambled into it like she was on fire. No more inadvertent strip show, his cat saddened by the perspectiveShe knew what he was going to ask. It was always there, in the manner people stood, slightly skewed, uncomfortable of her reaction even before she had reacted. Scars. He had seen them. And she knew he won't let it go. "You aren't going anywhere until you answer me." Lonely, she wanted to be with her own kind after being denied association for so long.
