2023-02-15 10:15:33Hello, Future Generations. My name is Saber. I’m the current Queen-to-be of the Fox Skulk (Foxes have Skulks like wolves have packs). I understand if this is a new concept to you or if you think that this book you have found can’t be real. I mean, Fox Skulk? Fox Shifters? Magic? If you’re a normal human living your mundane life, I’m sorry, but I’m about to blow the lid off everything you know.
At the time I write this journal I’m 22. Life is just starting. I’m from a small nowhere town in Texas. Texas is still a state, right? If not, please find an old map and educate yourself.
So, to start, let’s cover all the questions I’m sure you’ve had:
How do you and others (yes, there are other supernatural beings) stay hidden?
Well, it’s rather simple. Most people don’t question that weird town your drive through. The rather tiny one. Maybe you’ll stop for gas there or get a bite to eat. The people are overly nice, but there’s just something about them. Something off that you just can’t seem to put a finger on. That’s how we stay hidden.Aren’t you a white fox? What about Texas is conducive to you?
I didn’t plan on being here. I used to be up in Washington State, but due to the need for humans to control and spread, we had to move down here. Which is wonderful. Y’all only ever see red foxes and I love seeing the shock when someone catches a glimpse of me.Why are you in hiding? Wouldn’t it make more sense to just come out into the open?
Have you met the U.S. Army or anyone from the south? That would only end in blood and another war my people wouldn’t make it through. Speaking of why we’re in hiding, well over 500 years ago there was a war between all the supernatural beings for control over what we now call the United States of America. My people tend to be peaceful and nonaggressive and, due to this, the Moon Goddess granted us special powers. For the most part, we only get one form of elemental magic but, in special cases, some get upwards of five. I would be one of those special cases. As my mother is the current Queen, it was declared by the Goddess that the highest of us all, the most sacred, the purest, would have the honor of having these great powers. You’re probably wondering, “You’re 22, how can you prove any of that? Wouldn’t it just pass down to the worthiest?” Yes and no. While it’s not uncommon for someone among us to be chosen by the Goddess, it hasn’t happened in over 30 years. Also, it tends to flow down bloodlines. During this war, other shifters sought the need to control Fox Shifters. We were used, threatened, and then thrown away. Many of my people died during those years and still do till this day if they’re captured, so we’re even hidden from other supernatural beings.But where exactly where were/are you located in Texas?
I would love to tell you all about this wonderful small town I grew up in, but to save my people from those who would come after us, I am unable to do so as their future leader.Then why are you writing this? Do you hope it will find its way into human hands?
I’m writing this for me. For future me. For someone like me who may need it. As for humans finding this, do you think they’re going to think this is real? That I was a real person who lived? Magic? Everything about my life will be picked apart. I’m just hoping that, if by some chance you find this journal and you are human, you enjoy this and possibly learn from my mistakes.Related chapters

Once more, the humans could be seen walking about in the open field. Having a campfire, dancing, and drinking are on the agenda. We didn't mind not being invited to any of their parties because they never invited any of us. We would intentionally mess with them when in fox form just to annoy them. Because it's hard to imagine somebody who wouldn't start to question their sanity if they saw a few foxes in a region where such animals aren't often seen. Something unusual can be said about this Texas town of modest size. We were all compelled to attend classes with the humans since there just weren't enough of us. The skulk had attempted to educate all of us at home, but because to the baby boom that occurred when I was three years old, this was no longer a viable option. We felt compelled to try to "fit in" with the other children who were human. They were able to pick up on the fact that something was off about us, which eventually led to us turning against them and them turning against

I couldn’t sleep. It was nagging at me that she could just send me away like this. All I’ve ever known is this skulk. All I’ve ever done is train to take it over and to be the best leader for everyone. My magic is strong, but I don’t know how I’ll fair in the world without back up.Vix, why would she do this to us? How does she think we’re going to manage alone? I ask my fox in a panic.You’re worrying too much. You have me and I’m all you’ll ever need. I could practically see her rolling her eyes at me.But what if something goes wrong and we get captured?By those mangy mutts? We’ll be fine, Saber. Go to sleep. We have a busy day today preparing for the upcoming journey. I could feel her curling up and getting comfortable in the back of my mind. She also slammed down the barrier between us for good measure. Apparently, she needs her beauty sleep more than she needs to help me work through this.I fluffed my pillow and tried to get comfortable. Falling into a fitful sleep, I still ha

I moved stealthily through the forest, sniffing the air for any sign of approaching scouts as I snuck through the woods. Because of the way I moved the wind was blowing about me, my scent was carried far and wide over the area. However, when infiltrating the area of a wolf, one can never take precautions seriously enough.As I got closer, I could make out what appeared to be a sizable home. I was aware that they possessed these structures; they refer to them as "packhouses," and their purpose is to concentrate all the members of the pack in a single location so that they are simpler to protect. But not far off, I could see little houses sprinkled around.If they’re going to live like us, why bother with the grand house? I asked Vix.Maybe they’re over-compensating for something? I can’t wait to see this Alpha we’ve heard so much about. Returning my attention to the home, I searched for an unlocked window through which I could enter. These supercilious wolves, who are convinced that n

It had taken me a while to figure out how to get into his rooms. Normally, he would leave at 4 am to go to the training field located about a mile away. I would follow him to observe his daily routine, but never get close enough for him to sense something was anything wrong or odd going on. I hadn’t seen him close, and I hoped never to get close. He was a monster of a man, this Alpha named Aziel, roughly 6 foot 5 inches, with muscles that looked like he could stop a truck. Golden brown hair was a mess on his head, it appeared to be thick and would be fun to run my fingers though. Wait, I didn’t mean that. But I never got close enough to see his face.After picking the lock to get into his room, I pulled my wind down so I would be able to look more carefully without disrupting anything.“Well, hello.” I froze. My heart started to hammer against my chest when I heard that soft silky voice. It’s a sound I could listen to for hours. What? No. I snapped myself out of it and slowly turned f

I pulled a current of wind around me as I ran out of the pack house, shifting as I took to the forest surrounding it. Vix shooting into the tangled underbrush. I laughed to myself as we ran and imagined the look of frustration, pain, and shock on that wanna-be Alpha Wolf Mates face.It was funny, but it’s going to make it hard for us to have Kits or Pups later on. Vix said in my head as she leapt over a downed log.Who said we’ll even accept this wanna-be macho Alpha as our Mate? It’s not like he came to us with roses and love. I scoffed back.Well, we did just steal from him and kick him in the family jewels. I could practically see her rolling her eyes.We need the ring. We didn’t come here to meet our mate, fall in love, and start a family. Also, he’s so cocky. We would never work, and you know it. No one controls us, and if what they say is true, that’s all those types want to do. I moved the current of air to cover our scent as I heard the howls and pounding paws in the backgroun

Upon waking I couldn’t move my arms. Looking around I noticed I was back in his bedroom, chained to his bed. Well, that’s not good. I yanked on the chains to see if they had any give, none. Who has a way to chain someone to their bed? You know what? I don’t want to know.Looking around the room, I noticed that it was mostly in black and mahogany. Very clean and overly tidy. I guess someone has a clean freak problem.Voices outside pulled my attention to the door.“So, you’re just going to keep her chained up?”“If she didn’t try to run, this wouldn’t be an issue. I can’t go chasing after my mate every five minutes and I need to know why she wants this old thing.”“This isn’t the way to start out a healthy relationship.”“I’m aware, but it’s the only way to get her to stay in one place for long enough. I’ll deal with the pack business later, Kade.” I could hear the door handle turning and pretended to still be asleep. “Now, none of that. I know you’re awake. We could hear you pulling o

I looked down at her. Now sleeping like an angel in human form. Her almost bleach white hair spread around her like a halo. With a heart shaped face, but not a fat one like the ones you get and give on the human Valentines Day, a rather fitting one for her face. Her hazel eyes had staired at me with so much contempt. Her solid smooth nose led to a slight point with full, red lips underneath. It looked like she had been traveling for a while with baggy clothes, loose around her rather toned body.I sighed. Well, this wasn’t the plan, but I’m happy to have her. I’m happy we found her. Grumbled my wolf, Dezz.This isn’t how I imagined it, Dezz. A little help with what to do next?Human, it’s all up to you. I’m not getting involved, but if you lose her, I’ll eat every dead animal I come across till the end of time. Thanks. I mumbled back sarcastically. He gave a mental flip of his tail and curled up in the back of my mind.Now, what am I going to do with her? Normal female wolves marked

My body felt heavy, I tried to wiggle my toes and failed. What is going on? Slowly the feeling in my feet, then my legs started to come back. And I felt worried? Why would I be worried? What happened? Wait, this isn’t my worry. With that a flood of memories came back to me and I sat up ramrod straight in his bed. Looking around his room, I noticed him asleep in an arm chair that wasn’t in the room before. When did he move that in here? I was probably only out for a few minutes.I moved to get up off of the bed seeing the bathroom to the left of the bed. I felt stiff all over. Looking over at the man sleeping on the chair, a pair of ice blue eyes where looking back at me.“I hope you weren’t planning on trying to run again. The last three days and the bond setting will have weakened you.” I looked at him with my mouth open like a fish. Three. Days?!“What do you mean three days? There’s no way. And I never consented to you marking me. Isn’t it a rule for y’all too that you ask permissi

Looking down I can see my babies head coming out. Mother had called for a midwife. And it happened soon after. Aziel was taking it like a boss, still holding my hand through it all. Once the baby was out the midwife, Claire turned to him. “Alpha, would you like to do the honors?” She had already clamped the cord off.He looked green as he gave a mumbled “yes”. And cut the cord. I never thought to ask him if he was okay with this part of birth.“Momma, we need skin time.” Came Claire’s voice. I opened my arms up to the baby. She laid the baby on my chest. “Are you ready for the sex?” Aziel and I looked at her with bated breath. “Alpha and Luna, you have a healthy… (This pause wasn’t needed) girl!”I looked at Aziel first, would he hate me for giving him a daughter. All he did was rub her head lightly with a “Perfect” on his lips. I smiled at him and looked down at our little girl.“What should we name her?”“What names did you have picked out?”Side-eyeing him, I couldn’t remember but

The pain was steadily increasing as the time passed. But it still felt like I was a way out from getting this baby out of me. Aziel had called about an hour ago and said they landed, but I know it takes an hour to get from Dallas to us. They should be here any time now and I couldn’t wait to see Aziel’s face. Another hard contraction hit me, and I pulled my legs up to my chest, or at least what would be my chest if not for my stomach being in the way. Mother looked at me with concern. I think she was worried that this wasn’t moving as fast as she hoped, but it had only been four hours.We heard a loud knock from the front door. “I’ll be right back.” Mother said with a look at me. Walking out into the hallway, she cracked the door. I could hear her light footsteps fading away until they got to the front door. I heard her open in and a laugh.Kade’s voice reached me, his excited tone giving away how happy he was to be here. “Yeah. He’s been like that for a while now. Can’t figure out wh

I blocked the link. I don’t want him to know that I know about Liv. My heart and head are in turmoil. I feel like I can’t breathe as I hang up the phone without saying a word. He already moved on. It’s the only thought I can focus on. He already moved on. He didn’t really love me.Vix trying to talk to me but I push her out. I robotically turn to the door and walk out into the hallway. Moving slowly, I walk into the kitchen. Mother looks up from her book, putting it down she moves over to me, without saying a word, she wraps her arms around me. I can’t hold bad the tears anymore. The dam breaks in my mind and all the emotions come flooding out. Mother doesn’t ask any question; she just holds me as I fall apart.After what feels like forever of crying, I run out of tears. Looking into her vibrant green eyes, I see tears for the first time in a long time. “Want to tell me what happened?”Taking in a shaky breath, I tell her about how I called and Liv answering.“How do you know there wa

It had been a month since I came back. Nothing had changed within the Skulk. I had given my mother the ring and left her presence. I couldn’t find it in me to look her in the eyes. She knows what she has done to me. What I have given up for my people.Sighing, I look down at the pregnancy test. It had been over a month, and I still hadn’t had my period. Thinking back, I should have been smarter about this. I should have been on birth control, but who thinks they’ll meet their mate on a covert mission? Two lines slowly form on the test, and I feel the tears in my eyes. I can’t believe this is happening. Grabbing another test out of the box, I turn to the toilet. Just five more. Just five more then, I’ll be sure. There will be no debating it at that point.Looking down at the six pregnancy tests, I crumple into tears. Does the Goddess hate me for giving up my mate? For leaving? Should I go back?There’s a knock on the door. Wiping my eyes, I throw the tests into the trashcan. Wiping my

I had finally shifted bac when Vix got tired of running. Looking around, I found myself in the clearing with the pond. Walking over to it, I sat down on the edge letting my feet dangle in the water. I had no care for my naked state sitting there out in the open. The wind through the trees felt nice and I couldn’t hold back my raging thoughts anymore.I needed to get the ring. If only to stop the war that would happen. I war, I was afraid, my people wouldn’t win. But I had fallen in love with him. I wanted to be here now. Could I betray him like this? For the Skulk, I know I have to. Signing, I looked up at the clouds that were rolling in. It was going to be a nasty storm that hits. Hearing a branch break, I look behind me. Looking back, I see Dezz, Aziel’s wolf walking in through the trees, in a blink of the eye. There is Aziel, looking at me with concern in his eyes.Taking a deep breath, I stand. He looks as me like he’s asking for permission. Slightly nodding my head, he moves towa

I felt warm, but not overly warm. There is something hard, but comfortable underneath me. I feel like I’m floating on a cloud. But I came crashing back to earth when I realize I don’t have any clothes on. Shooting up out of bed, I run to the bathroom. Breathing heavily. Memories come back to me, and I turn a deep shade of red. Looking at myself in the mirror, I don’t look any different, but I feel so strange. Walking over to the shower I turn it on and hop in. The cold water feels good on my skin after a night of burning. Hearing a knock at the door, I turn to look at it and watch as Aziel walks in. Turning back to the water, I locate the shampoo and lather up my hair. Hearing the shower door open, I turn back around to look at Aziel. “Good morning.” “Good morning.” I turn up the heat to the shower and rinse my hair out. Moving out of the way, I grab a wash rag, wet it, and get the body wash. As I lather that up into a fine foam, I move around Aziel to stand next to the wall so he c

Running along the trails, we took a break in the cleaning with the pond. Taking my shoes off, I dipped my feet into the water to cool them down. “Are you going to get in too?” I looked over at Aziel, he was just in a pair of shorts and shoes. He looked like a Greek God who just stepped off Mount Olympus. Smiling at me, he kicked is shoes off and steps into the pond.“Are you ready to help me with all the preparations?” He glances over at me with an intense look in his cold blue eyes. I wonder for a second what would happen if I said no and backed out of helping.“Yes. It’ll be nice to see more of this little town and not just the shopping centers.” I put on a face remembering the pain from yesterday. Aziel chuckles next to me.“Did he really traumatize you that much?”“I was what I imagine being in purgatory would be like.” Suddenly, there was a wave of heat throughout my body starting at my toes. Grabbing onto Aziels arm, I steadied myself. As fast as it came it was gone a second lat

When I had finally convinced myself to come out of the bathroom the previous night. I had found Aziel already asleep in bed. I had tried to nudge him awake, but I was unsuccessful. Instead, I curled up into the bed next to him. Waking up in the morning was tough. I was so warm and comfortable sheltered in his arms. Moving around I started to wake up a little more. A muffled groan met my movement, and something was hard against my hip. Realizing what it was, I jumped out of bed and fell on the floor. Laughter met my sudden departure. Leaning over the bed Aziel looked down at me.“Comfortable?” He laughed.Getting up slowly, I rubbed my sore bottom. “That’s one way to wake up in the morning.” Looking down at him on the bed, I could see the offensive bulge in his boxers. “Put that thing away before you hurt someone.”Looking down at himself, he started to laugh harder. “It’s not like I can help it!”“Mhm. Sure, you can’t.” I rolled my eyes at him and went to the closet to get some differ

I collapsed onto Aziel’s bed. It had been hours of shopping with Kade. And I had little to show for it. Kade, on the other hand, had more bags than we could fit into the trunk of the car. We ended up stacking them in the back seat of his car. It was pure insanity that someone could need that many clothes. Then, after it was all over, I decided to move into Aziel’s room. Which took me even more time, even with the little I did have, because his room was such a neat freak disaster, and I didn’t know how to fit into it. At one point, I just gave up and threw my stuff into the corner of his closet.Hearing the door open, I looked up as Aziel entered. He gave me an assessing look.“Went shopping with Kade?” There was a laugh in his voice. Pushing my head into the bed, I screamed. “Never going to do that again, huh?”Looking up at him, I was on the verge of tears. “How does one person need that many clothes? Where does he put them all? How do you have that many clothing stores in such a sma
