“Vanessa has never mind linked with anyone except three people in her life. Me, Carmen, and Silas. She was just six, an innocent child when I decided we were better off as rogues. I don’t wish to rehash history you both know so well,’’ Noah was quiet, “and she saw some things on the run. I… it was difficult. When we came here, we weren’t part of this pack. For a long time, she refused to speak to anyone. By the time she was twelve, she had other problems, and from there on stayed isolated. She can cut off links with ease because she isn’t used to them. She never allows herself to be vulnerable with them.”

Noah’s abhorrence alone would've strangled the man sitting there, accepting defeat like he couldn’t have changed things. All wolves knew linking left the chambers of the brain wide open, it was the ultimate form of trust put on a pedestal by the patience, understanding, and care it required to form into a full-fledged bond.

Be it family or other pack members, which is why rogues did

    "Lost? As in lost in the jungle?" The kid shrugged his soldiers, and started biting his nails again. A habit born of anxiety. "Stop that." Evan regretted saying anything when he saw the tears well up in his eyes. Shit. He didn't have experience with kids, none at all. And his reprimand came off more harshly than necessary."Okay Ian. I'll find her okay? I promise. She won't be lost. Between you and me, we are not going to fail her, are we?" Ian shook his head, bouncing the curls all over which a minute later were in between Evan's fingers. He thought of one person who'd know where she always was. 'Noah''Evan. What do you need?' He didn't mind Noah's curt tone. 'Do you know where Vanessa is?' 'She went for a run. Why?' An arctic chill overrode Evan's sensory inputs. Did Noah not like that he was asking about Vanessa or he was worried about her because something had happened?'Why do you ask Evan?' This time, it was a command. 'She is not okay. She is not in danger but she shoul

    Her ambiguous report on Vanessa ruffled him the wrong way. He wanted her to do more, know more. Know better. But he can’t command them anything. Like rogues, healers were born, not made. Their healing qualities were a sum of genetics, experience and years of learning. This was one race wolves lagged in, they never felt the need to experiment, study clinical trials because their pack healers could find faults, diseases, benign or cancerous . They spent their strength on healing wolves by rejuvenating the cells. Being an Alpha made no guarantees of all that he knew. Healers, all across the world, never talked much about how they healed wolves. It was no guarded secret, they just didn’t expect others to understand. ‘How is she?’ Evan. Again.He had talked to him three times already. He was still with Ian who had fallen asleep in Vanessa’s room apparently because he was too stubborn to go to his room. Poor Evan was scared of a child. Noa h knew then, to not force the matter. ‘Fine. Sh

    Noah noticed her eyes not moving from their hands so he kept stroking. Her knuckles were slightly scraped. “What happened Vanessa?” his wolf refused to give her any more space.“I hurt my father. You saw what happened.” She was being deliberately obtuse. He saw her chin angled in rebellion. She was his kitten. The same spitfire. It relieved him but spurred him on all the same. This is what they did. She ran, he chased, knowing he had the vehement impulse to conquer her, he forgot himself and the fictions of the day in order to have her. But that had to stop. He pinched the bridge of his nose so acutely, she knew she had to be getting on his nerves. Serves him right, she thought. Why should she tell him everything? Or anything. “You are going to tell me what’s wrong with you. Or so help me God Vanessa.” His fury wasn’t directed at her but she was very sensitive now for some reason.All her bravery and spine to face Noah Abel and his deceptive world lay husk like. She gulped, and h

    How delusional was she? He wasn’t to be tamed with a few ‘pleases’. She was hurt. And he hurt her. That didn’t give her the right to draw a wedge between them. His wolf battered away at his head but Noah, the human half, knew how this worked. Still, he didn’t know why he couldn’t follow Mikhail’s advice and cut himself clean, no strings, and walk away. How could he?Noah had demanded, ordered, chastised, going lax only when her defenses were down. But now he coaxed her. Not with his tongue alone. He looked different. The poignant look he had perfected slipped away like an old visage. He was feeling something. Something he couldn’t speak about. She had never pitied him before, and she wasn’t going to now. But she can assume how lonely it had to be. She was lonely too.And her wolf was content, lapping up the steamrolled expertise of his wolf. Noah didn’t let her do much work. Dictating how they angled their heads to how long they can survive without air. Well, her. Because she was pa

    "I need to make contact with Silas. But it shouldn't come from you. I need answers to a few things." She could have stayed silent and not told him anything. After all, that's what he did.But, this was her. And she didn't want his actions to change her. He was surprised she shared anything with him. His eyebrows nearly reached his hairline before he masked it."Why? Has this happened before?"He conveniently let go of the 'it shouldn't come from you' part. If it had, who was looking out for her then? Even younger, even more, innocent Vanessa. Possibly Silas. He didn't like that. “No. Silas was there for me when my parents weren’t. I need to make sure I don’t hurt someone like that again.” She looks disappointed in herself. He outlined her profile then, her hands fiddling with one of his large t-shirts and boxers. His clothes make her look smaller, and he was happy she would smell like him. The happiness is short-lived. “Do you know what you did? When you thought you hurt your fath

    ‘Father’. If he didn’t care for theatrics, he’d be gritting his teeth. No way was he giving into Rourke Abel forcing things out of him he didn’t want to speak about.His father was making his way down the hill. His age tenuously weathered the large build. Few years ago, maybe when Noah and Mikhail were twenty, that force would’ve made them shrink. Despite his rebellion, Noah never got over how easily his father had dismissed him from his life. He knew pack first policy, had it ingrained in him. But his father always cared, just not enough.So this prosaic personality now looking at them with squinted eyes and slightly aged bloating near his face, didn’t make him break out in a sweat or make a typical reactionary out of him. Both Mihail and Riyas are out of there, traitors that they are. He knows they dont fear him. But they respect his privacy.“I heard you are wheedling Desmond.” Rourke Abel says in the way of greeting. His big lips and blunt nose, courtesy of aging, have left nothi

    “Say that again.” He was so confused, his voice wasn’t above an octave what qualified whispering. Evan rubbed his eyes with his wrists.“I said. Vanessa. is . Gone.” Noah was expecting anger but Evan said it with such excruciating deliberateness, he knew it was true. “Where?” Another stupid question but he had to process and keep talking. He was already heading to her living pad.“If I knew. I wouldn’t be here. I just found out.” Evan fell into step behind him. “Did she ask you to call Silas?” “No. I thought I should check on her and thats why I came. Why would she need me to call Silas? She can just mind link him.” Evan’s perplexed tone cut through the haze. She had lied. He thought she needed to call because she was scared of using the mind passageways to communicate. But she had fed him a perfect lie.She needed to figure out somethings with clarity only Silas could provide. The desperation had practically reeked out of her. “If she’s going there, we can reach faster. I know

    He was not the guy who’d rush to her bedroom and return with a couple of blankets, make a tent for them both to stake out on the kitchen floor. No. He’d carry her unless she explicitly stopped him. She was staring at him from underneath her lids, her eyes spoke volumes. She was pushing his limits like always. Her cleavage, incidentally, fell in the direct path of the moonlight from the opposing window. The bared flesh was an invitation to be stroked and marked. “That’s your final choice?” He wanted the pretense of choice, so he could take back some control. His voice had gone hoarse, and he was hard enough that the constraints of his jeans made him uncomfortable. She bit her lip and nodded. He stared at her, wanting to tuck back the locks that escaped her rubber band because they were standing in the way of appreciating her small chin, and full cheekbones. It was unfair at times, how tender and volatile she made him.He didn’t let her gauge his actions, hooking his hand under her a

    '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.
