ROYALS OF RIDGEWOOD HIGHER PLAYS
STORMI can live with hating myself. It's all I have done since I stepped foot in this goddamn town and got to know the boys as not just marks but actual people.What I have done is terrible. Because I know them, bonded with them and I continued to put the poison in their dads’ drinks and watched them die as I comforted their sons.A villain, that’s who I am. But I suppose a villain enjoys what they do, I can't find the strength to enjoy it anymore. I am physically sick.I haven’t been able to get out of bed and I suspect it because of all the guilt and shame weighing me down and me verbally realizing it. but it's not. not really.The stones, the displayed stones did something to me that night and the effect has been lingering, which means that the boys all think that whoever poisoned their dads also managed to get to me.Ha! How perfect is the universe covering for me? at this point, I want to say I am the luckiest girl but I don’t feel so.Also, I think it's time for me to come clea
ROYALS OF RIDGEWOOD I BURN FOR YOU
STORMThey are all looking at my tattoo and every time one of them touches It, it sends a ripple of pleasure to my core.“don’t… do that,” my voice shakes a little.“it's arousing her, I can smell her scent,” Kyle is on me in a minute as he pulls me onto his lap. I bite back a moan as he shifts my hips and kisses me.My wolf wants him so bad I don’t even mind the fact that we look like two horny people making out on the damn couch.“seeing her wearing my mark is doing things for me,” I hear Dean speak from behind but my mind is back on Kyle when he palms my breast and starts to fondle them.I elicit a moan.I don’t know I am being carried until I feel myself in the air, and I am wrenched from Kyle.“I am going crazy about it,” I hear someone say as I am carried over the shoulders by Landon and I am squealing, and utterly freaked out.“what's going on?!” I shout as I try to wiggle my way out of London’s grasp but he is holding me down, and he is far stronger than I am.“I am taking you
ROYALS OF RIDGEWOOD THE HIGH
STORMI was once disgusted by them. Now, I am only disgusted by myself.Landon thrusts in me and a cry of pleasure rolls off my lips as I hold onto Cole, as I look him in the eye and take my other crevice, filling me up, with dirt, sweat, and our juices on my skin.You lost yourself to them. You came here to conquer them and instead…. They conquered you.You have nothing to show for it.They won.My body is moving with pleasure, in abandonment as I let them punish me, fill me up, and take whatever self I have left, whatever piece of my old being is left. I am utterly and completely transformed in their hands and their bodies. In their mouths and their eyes. in their wolves and their humane.In their pleasure and their pain.Perhaps they will forgive you, when they know who you are… used to be, before. They have shown you how much they didn’t care for the people you killed because you wanted to punish them for what they watched and partook in years ago.“Landon!”Yes, he …. Will be har
ROYALS OF RIDGEWOOD WILL YOU BE MY DATE?
DEANShe is devouring the meal I prepared for her like it's going to run away from her.“Were you that hungry?” I ask with a laugh when she shoots me w withering look.“farmished. You all have made me eat extra nowadays.”Oh yes, we have. We haven’t been able to keep our hands to ourselves. All five of us always want to be tangled up with each other all the time.“Well, you shouldn't be so full, I want us to head out.”She lowers the burrito I have made for her and wipes her mouth as she looks at me in question. “I thought we were going to be watching the football game.”Kyle and Cole have a game tonight, but that’s not where we are going. Landon is somewhere running errands, to check up on my little sisters and Kyle’s brothers. None of us can look at them right now. He has no problem with it either, being good with kids.“We aren’t going on a football game. They all know we won't be there not until later if we can.”“so where are we going then?”“I am taking you out on a date.”She c
ROYALS OF RIDGEWOOD THINGS I DON'T LET MYSELF DARE TO DREAM OF
STORMI am bursting with excitement and giggling like an infatuated girl on our way to the date.A date. Dean is taking me on a date and I could go over the moon about this. I am getting all flustered by his masculinity and how he is making me feel good and doesn’t make me feel weird or awkward that I have ever gone on a date in all of my nineteen years.When we pull over to the place that Dean told me, it's not the lowkey type I had in my mind. It’s a country club and I m gaping as I look at the endless rolling green fields that are stretched all over the driveway.“I thought you said it's lowkey and not a snobby country club,” I might be snarky right now, and a little bit bitter because really, growing up rich and silver-fed makes you think differently.Once again, I have been reminded just how much we had different childhoods.“it is lowkey, I promise no snobby or down-looking folks around,” he replies and holds my hand squeezing it.Dean is comforting me like he can feel me distan
ROYALS OF RIDGEWOOD THAT'S THE HUMAN IN ME
STORM “I just got taken out on my first date dad. I loved it so much… and the only thing I wished to do right after is to come and talk to you about it. I know you are disappointed in me and mad about me getting tangled up with the boys… but I have never experienced anything like this in all my life.” I look up at the stars as I lie on the ground, the cold night breeze cooling my skin. “I have never felt like this … this feeling that bursts out my heart and makes me want to smile and giggle like a school girl any time either of them does something charming for me. today Dean was everything I had ever fantasized about when I went on my date. “I even fantasized about him being my boyfriend as he held my hand as we walked in and out of the restaurant. It's such a human way to think because we werewolves don’t brand ourselves with names like girlfriends and boyfriends, it's only claimed and mates. “But dad …. I wish they would ask me to be their girlfriend before we mated. And then te
ROYALS OF RIDGEWOOD OLD GHOSTS
STORM I am seated between Landon and Kyle; Dean is driving and Cole is on the shotgun. We have been driving for two hours now and I am beginning to feel cranky. Well, it could also be the heat. But I don’t say a word because for a drive that’s supposed to take over 25 hours, complaining when we are two hours in is a stretch. “how was your date?” Landon whispers in my ear and I turn slightly to look at him. Kyle fell asleep thirty minutes ago. “it was great, I enjoyed it,” I smile a little as I look at Dean who is talking silently with Cole in the front seat. “I wanted to be the first one to take you out you know?” he says as he rolls a strand of my hair on his finger giving it a soft tug. “oh yeah?” “yeah. I would have taken you to one of the best Chinese places in the whole of the state. The owner of the restaurant there is my friend. It would have been special,” he replies as he looks at me in that way of his that makes you feel like it's only the two of you in the world. “yo
ROYALS OF RIDGEWOOD GOD COMPLEX
STORM I am a perfect picture of a smile and ease on the outside but on the inside, I am panicking and cursing. “hey,” I plaster the fakest smile I can muster my voice high-pitched. She looks at me with her usual derision and then starts ogling at the guys not even trying to hide her obvious lust toward them. I will kick her teeth out and make her swallow them like pills. “what are you doing here?” I ask her, ignoring my obvious hate towards her. we never had a soft spot for each other to begin with. “I should ask you the same thing. last I heard you were in- “ “Okay, I think that’s enough catching up,” I start to push away the guys downstairs so that we can get the hell out and they all frown at me. I don’t have the effort nor the time to deal with all of this so I just smile at them and tell them to give me a second to talk to my friend. They agree but won't let me out of their sight. Once they are out of earshot I turn towards her angrily. “you have got the nerve,” I snarl.

STORM Landon and I have been on the road for a week now and right now, we are on our way back home. It's so early, and I am quiet in my seat as I look outside the window as he drives. My whole life changed when I met them, and I cannot take it back, every single of them. I don’t regret any of it. I have decided to go home knowing that there is always going to be darkness in me, it's there to stay, and the best part of it is, I have found boys who want to join in on my darkness. They have shared theirs and invited me into theirs. It's my time to let them in and invite them on in mine. For great love, you must go through the pain. To have all that you desire, you must sacrifice. Pain and love go hand in hand, for you cannot love if you don’t feel the pain of it, it goes together. You cannot know what you have until you have lost it all. And that’s what I realized during my break. I did what I had to do, even went away for a minute from my love to know how true that statement was.
ROYALS OF RIDGEWOOD YOU AND I, TILL THE DAY WE DIE
STORM The bar around ends up being a biker's bar, with several bikers packed at the front. I shouldn’t, it's rowdy, and if I am guessing, when they see me alone some will try to hit on me taking me for a fragile little thing that has ended up where she isn’t supposed to. Even before I let that thought to sink in, I am already opening the door, the little bell at the top of the door chiming, and the whole bar goes quiet, all eyes turning towards me. I pause, taking it all in and all the people in. Burly men, tattoos covering their skins heavily, leather jackets and studs on some, a few girls on their laps, and they all look mean and menacing. I proceed to walk towards the tabletop counter where a woman bartender is watching me. everyone is watching me and after I sit down, when they realize I am not going away, they resume their talking. “what will you have?” she asks as she wipes a glass with the towel. “something that will make sure I have a good time tonight,” I reply as I hol
ROYALS OF RIDGEWOOD FEMME FATALE ERA
STORMDemons - Hayley Kiyoko is blasting off my speakers as I speed past cars on the highway. Singing along as I beat the steering wheel, wind in my hair as I come from a kill that left me freshly rejuvenated.It should worry me a great deal that the only thing that’s making me feel alive again is killing, but that thought only makes me laugh.I mean, who am I to deny who I am? Maybe it was destined for me to finally embrace this dark side of me without painting it to be a burden, like a means to an end to my purpose.I have no purpose now, other than to feel me again and love me.That’s a good purpose, I didn’t think I was all about self-love and all, I think to myself as I look at my blood-caked nails.I need to find a place to sleep in tonight, perhaps eat human food, cook of course, and sleep. Then tomorrow I do the same thing, I have a long list of people to unalive.I find a motel and check in, and I thank the gods for the showerhead, which has a fairly decent water pressure.I
ROYALS OF RIDGEWOOD I WON'T MISS YOU
STORMI never thought it could happen, but it is.I am standing by my Impala, looking at Ridgewood one last time before I speed away and I feel like I am leaving my soul and heart behind.This could be one of the things I will ever regret doing. I can't seem to remember why I am doing this because it hurts so much, but it's all for the better.I wipe away the tear sliding down my cheek and get in my car, revving the engine and speeding away.Back on the road again, alone, leaving all that I have ever wanted behind.I open my compartment glove and I find my old burner phone. I flip it open and find the number I am looking for.“hey Stevie, I need a job.”“Long time Cherry, where are you?”I am heading north, can you find me something worth my while?”“anything for you, but aren’t you rusty? Rumour has it-““Are you sending me the coordinates to a good hunt or not? I didn’t take you for a gossip.”“All I am saying is, now you are not as incognito as before, be careful out there.”“I did
ROYALS OF RIDGEWOOD THE CEREMONY
KYLE It’s a rainy gloomy day. It must be matching with my moods and those around me as we all await our bride to walk up to us. The ceremony is being held outdoors, the planners had thought that the day would be sunny and warm, but the rain has started and hasn’t stopped since an hour ago. I don’t mind, as I know this is not exactly how I wanted us to do this so here we are. “why did she not choose the other location that was offered?” Dean asks me quietly as we stand at the front of the huge tent serving as our shelter. They still managed to pull it off with the lowers, it would look magical was it not for the bitterness and bad taste in my mouth about this day. “doesn't matter, we are not here to party, we are just a means to an end for her to leave us,” I respond to him. “Can we all stop doing this? It's already in motion so let's get this over with,” Landon mutters. None of us have been in good shape or moods since last week when she said that she wanted to leave and the o

STORM“so you have been feeling this? all of you?” I ask them and their grim faces tell me everything.“Baby, you shut us down every step we take to help you,” Kyle approaches me and I take a step back.“I don’t want your help,” I tell him and he looks like I have slapped him.I don’t mean to o this, but I don’t think I can stop.“you have been drowning and we have been here asking you how to help you and you have said no. I don’t know what to do, I don’t know how to save you,” Landon speaks to me gently.“I don’t want to be saved, no one can save me,” I say. I can feel tears scrolling down my face.“why are you doing this?” Dean asks, his voice hurt.I exhale, steeling myself. “because none of you understand.”“Help us then understand you, we love you so much, too much to let you be this way,” Kyle approaches me once again and I let him come close to me. “let us in, please.”I want to give in so much, but it's going to be the same.

It doesn’t matter what they all say or try to tell me, this is my doing. They felt my hesitation, my longing for a different life and they have left me.You know what's stupid, it’s the fact that every time I felt like I was a clown, not being true to the rest of them I would talk to them and confide my true feelings to them.They wouldn’t judge me, they were inside me and they knew what was going on. They had come to be my partners in this ridiculously high life, and now they are gone.To be honest, I feel betrayed. They were here, and now they are gone.
