*Meadow*

I managed to make myself look decent enough; I was wearing a below the knee silver dress with dark brown flowers manually sewed in it, it was loose and so comfortable. Together with a simple pair of brown pumps with a similar shade of brown purse that made the perfect combination. I ruffled my hair into soft waves and allowed it to fall from the sides, my final touch was a simple eyeliner, no more than that. I loved to be simple, even though something told me Caleb had more elegant plans.

When I walked out of the room, He was resting on the couch, talking with Alex. I had his back at me while Alex stopped talking as his eyes laid on mine, he bowed his head and became silent, while Caleb tilted his head slightly.

"There you are, ready to go out?" He said calmly. I felt the situation to be odd. Alex looked different, gloomier.

I walked to Caleb, and he smiled as he looked up from the chair, he took my hand and pulled me gently to sit on his lap. "Hi, Alex," I managed to say.

    *Meadow*He opened the door for me and then guided me into a quiet and elegant restaurant. It was different from the other ones, and I felt much more comfortable in it. It had several private booths in a very sober design; wood panels decorated the walls, and two vintage sofas faced one to the other, a table of the same style in between. He allowed me to slide in and get comfortable, turning around to pull a cord that made a pair of curtains drop. He looked at me with a smile, and I saw some uncertainty in his eyes, he didn't know where he would seat. I lifted my hand to him invitingly, so he sat next to me and took my hand squeezing it. "What would you like to have as an appetizer?" His voice smooth as silk echoed in my ear.I half closed my eyes and heard the blues in the background moving me closer to him, I took his hand in mine and rested it on my knee. "I want many things, but I will be fine with a drink and anything you advise," I replied half teasingly.He ordered fried garl

    *Meadow*The mixed sensations of the delicious food added to our favorite wine paled in comparison to the feelings my own body felt as we ate slowly in silence. The music seemed to conspire against me, revealing my thoughts. "You get the fever... you get the itch... and you forget about the mess you were in..." sang Keb Mo while I tried to convince myself it wasn't a mistake; and that was all it took for me to get cold and uncomfortable.He spread his legs a little wider, and I felt lower in between them. I could feel his intentions hard against me, and I couldn't concentrate on anything but the basics. Breath and eat. I ate slowly and finally, once full, I kept quiet as I drank the last content inside the wine bottle, only to look at its emptiness disappointed.He chuckled and leaned against me enough to feel his breath on my neck. "Would you like me to order more?"I half closed my eyes and felt intoxicated. "I think I have had enough..." I whispered. Why was I suddenly so nervou

    *Meadow*I slowly rubbed my eyes after feeling a slight heat against them. I didn't know what it was, I just knew it was waking me up. When I finally opened my eyes half way I could see the thick curtains left a small line uncovered where each side met in the center, and through that little space, the sunlight peeked in and was stealing my sleep.I was still trapped in between worlds; half asleep and half awake, when I felt something around me move. My eyes shot wide open, and I found myself caught in Caleb's arms. I blushed profoundly, feeling his left arm tighten around my stomach; I smiled as I remembered the night before.I remembered he held me tightly in his arms until I finally stopped feeling like I didn't deserve him, we kissed with passion and laid on the couch of my dreams, the same one I was waking up in. I was ready for more that night, but he stopped me; he said I needed to rest and recharge energies since I had a long and emotional day. We laid together cuddling, and

    *Meadow*I woke up to the sound of whimpers and shudders. I looked ahead, and I saw Caleb sweating and fighting something invisible, all while sinking his fingers on the couch. I ran to him and kneeled at his side, trying to wake him up, shaking him softly. His hand released the sofa but clasped on my wrist and I gasped at the pain.I shook him gently again while whispering his name. "Caleb? wake up... is just a nightmare..." I tried to move my arm away but he tightened his grip on me harder. "Caleb!" I cried and his eyes opened wide. I instantly reached his face with my free hand and caressed his sweat away trying to soothe him. "It was only a nightmare... relax... I am here...""Meadow..." he whispered my name and pulled me to him as he breathed heavy and fast. "I thought I had lost you..." He breathed in my neck and I caressed his back trying to help him calm down."I am not lost, and I am right here with you," I whispered while kissing the top of his head and he took a deep bre

    *Meadow*He slid his fingers under my dress and over my skin, and I moaned softly, I felt him tug my clothing up and out; so I lifted my arms, and as soon as he removed it, I felt my skin burn in contact with his. Oh, this was far from over.I felt as if I was on drugs; him being mine as I grinded on his skin and licked his chest. He growled seductively and pressed his fingers on my back, pulling me harder against him, then he licked my neck and I quivered, my body arched more and he pushed himself between my thighs, his leg now damp with my arousal."Caleb..." I whisper faintly, and he pushed me down on the couch, his body atop of me. My hands slid on his hips, and I locked my eyes on him as I pushed his pants down slowly, the dark pools of his eyes seemed to burn me from within."Things will change for you if we take this further... we will be bound more fully and forever... Are you sure you want to take that step?" He said almost without breath.I thought about it briefly, but

    *Caleb*I felt my wolf content, just as much as I was, as we watched our mate naked and satisfied in my arms. He wanted to take her too, but that was out of the question for the moment. If my wolf took her then, without me marking her, it would risk everything, and I had to contain my lust. The fear of losing her made him control his as well.She looked so fragile as her cheeks kept a soft red and her face pressed against my chest. I could stare and look at her for hours and days like that. Faint buzzes caught my attention, and I looked around trying to find where they came from.I didn't want to wake her up, but when I realized it's was my phone, I moved slowly and tried to reach it. She yawned and opened her eyes a little confused. "Sorry" I whispered at her as I brushed my lips on her forehead and took a hold of the device trapped in my pants."Yes?" I asked when I took Alex's call."Alpha, we tracked Gideon, he was caught on traffic cameras following you and the Luna, and he i

    *Caleb*I walked outside with her hand in mine, and she smiled shyly as I yawned and stretched. "Shall we take a walk then?" I asked in a normal voice.She nodded and smiled. "I would like that."As we started moving, I took small sniffs and familiarized with the scene, she walked a bit clumsily, and I turned around worried. "Is everything ok?"She blushes deeply and lowered her head, I got worried and pulled her chin up. "What is wrong?""I am... a bit sored... just getting used to, I will be fine." She whispered utterly red from embarrassment, and I laughed and shook my head, pulling her close and lifting her up in my arms."I am so sorry... so very sorry... please forgive me... I will be gentler next time." I promised, not sure if I really could with how much out of control she drove me. She nodded with a guilty smile and kissed me. It was right then when I noticed a small change in the surroundings. I caught a sound that didn't belong to the scene, a click. I held her lips in

    *Meadow*"Caleb!" Blood damped his shirt that was on my body, and I started to cry. He looked at me calmly, and I needed to force myself to remember he was going to be ok. I laid him on the side and tried to check the wound, while I heard movement behind me."Lave him to bleed to death, turn around," I heard Gideon speak emotionless. I squeezed Caleb's hand and he nodded, closing his eyes. Grabbing courage I turned around and stood to face my tormentor."What the fuck is your problem!" I screamed at him, and he blinked a little surprised."My problem? YOU are my fucking problem!" He spit at me and then pulled my arm taking me with him. While he did, I looked behind and sobbed as Caleb's hurt body moved slowly, I had to keep Gideon distracted, I needed to be strong.A couple steps away I pushed him, and he immediately aimed his rifle at me. "I will kill you if you push me again. Be a good slut and come with me or I will shoot you right here," He commanded, and I shook my head."Wh

    *Meadow*The sun casts a warm golden glow, as if trying to heal the scarred landscape left by the war. Fields, once lush and green, lie ravaged, but sprouts of new life fight their way through the wreckage. The earth seems to be slowly stitching itself back together, just as we are.I sit anxiously as I wait for Sol to walk down the flowered aisle. She chose this place as the setting for her wedding, and when I asked her why, she said she wanted to honor those people who fell during our battle."Look at that," Xavier says, pointing to a small group of deer grazing in the distance. "Life always finds a way.""Indeed," I reply, my voice catching in my throat. The sight is both beautiful and heartbreaking. It's hard not to think of those who never got to see this moment of renewal.Right after the battle, we spent our days rebuilding the world around us, not only the physical structures, but also the hearts and minds of those left behind. It's a slow and arduous process, but with each bri

    *Solveigh*My consciousness returns slowly, as if emerging from the depths of a murky abyss. The voices around me are hushed and indistinct, like echoes in a fog. I strain to understand them, but they remain elusive.‘Sol,’ Seth's voice resonates within my mind, warm and reassuring. ‘You're going to be okay. You need more rest before your body can fully recover.’I want to respond, to tell him how tired I am, but my limbs are heavy and unresponsive. My eyelids feel weighed down, as if encased in stone. It's frustrating, this inability to move or communicate.‘Mom... Dad…’ I try to call for them in my thoughts, hoping Seth will relay my message.Footsteps approach, and I sense their familiar presence even before I hear dad's deep, calming voice. "Seth, how is she?""Her body is still too weak to talk or open her eyes or move yet," Seth explains gently. "But she can hear us."My heart swells with gratitude. They came, just as I knew they would. I wish I could see their faces or embrace t

    *Caliope*I watch Amral crumple to the ground, his eyes rolling back as he loses consciousness. Panic surges through me like a tidal wave, drowning out all other emotions. The dark creatures circle him, preparing to tear him apart, and something inside me snaps."Amral!" I scream, my voice cracking under the weight of my fear and desperation. He can't die; not now, not like this. My love for him, my need to protect him, fuels my anger and pain. I have more to fight for than ever before."Get away from him!" I roar, focusing all my dark powers into a singular force. Shadows stretch out from my fingertips, wrapping around the monstrous beings that threaten his life. I tug at the darkness, sending the creatures flying away from his motionless body."Please, you can't leave me," I whisper, tears streaming down my face. Desperation echoes through my voice, and I feel it deep within my soul. "You can't die."The creatures recover quickly, turning their attention towards me. But I'm not afrai

    *Solveigh’s*I step through the black hole portal, and my breath catches in my throat. The darkness enveloping me is thick, almost tangible, and I feel like I'm choking on it. Panic rises within me as I sense the presence of the creatures, born from the shadows and chaos that surround us."Sol," Seth's voice rings out, startling me. He's right beside me, his strong hand gripping mine. He steadies myself emotionally. My panic begins to subside a little, replaced by a sense of calm that only Seth can provide. "We'll get through this," he whispers, his eyes filled with determination."Where are they? Amrafel, Caliope," I call out, searching for our companions. Within seconds, they materialize before us, their powerful auras cutting through the darkness. Amrafel's eyes are like twin flames, lighting up his face, while Caliope's gaze is as sharp as obsidian."Ready to fight these dark creatures?" Amrafel asks, his voice low and steady. Caliope nods, her face set in grim resolve. I feel conf

    *Solveigh*I feel like I am in a new state of existence, and every inch of my body is running with electricity; something else has replaced my blood, and the adrenaline is addictive. Seth’s hand presses on my back and I know the reason why I haven't fainted is that of him.A large creature falls close to me and I jump, but quickly regain my focus, not wanting to be distracted, but the smell that comes from its corpse is making me nauseous. I shiver slightly but lock my eyes on my brother Ian, and then I feel ready to try more.It is not the first time; I have done this before, transferring my abilities, affecting them in a way that helped them, enhancing them. I know I can do this, and so, I feel myself reach to Xavier and he shudders slightly, then his voice booms, and it starts to affect the lesser creatures that screech in what now has become a battlefield.I can’t erase the smile on my face; we are making things happen, they are stepping away, so many of them are on the floor alrea

    *Xavier*‘They are here,’ are Ian’s words. Words that reach me just as I finish kissing my mates.I rush outside and I see Ian in the middle of the large field, he is looking up to the sky and my eyes follow his. A black pool of nothingness is starting to grow, and I see the elementals panicking as they whisper things in different languages and I know my brother feels them more than me.This angers me; it is not like we weren’t expecting them. Sure, we didn’t know specifically when they were going to attack again, but we had been preparing for them.I focus on the fire elementals and I let my command voice do its job. “Gather up! Get ready! Distraction is needed very fast! Chop chop!”Uncle Aen is quickly joining them, keeping his calm as he looks at me and nods, he knows the time has come. I turn to look at my mates and I feel caught up in the same panic; my mates need to be safe.“Don’t you stand there, you need to get over there and help take them down,” Dana pulls me out from the s

    *Meadow*I rush into the cabin, and I find a small gathering in the living room. I don’t understand why everyone is here and not inside helping my Sol. Caleb quickly reaches me and we both walk straight towards her bedroom door.Until Xavier stops us.“Son?” I ask, confused and angry at the same time. “What is happening?”“Mother, wait… Sol is actually ok, she was taken to Caliope’s father to help.”His words feel almost like a foreign language to me. “I can’t feel her mind, what do you mean with all this?”I look at Caly and she actually looks back at me with a face filled with confusion and fear. It is Lucifer who speaks for her. “I have been many eons in my own prison, so I know what he is doing. He has felt a connection to Sol, so he has used her to send a message to us. He can’t hold it for long, so she should be back very soon.”Her words make some sense, and I understand why Caly is a bit shaken by this. I look at her and nod, trying to contain myself as well, showing her that

    *Solveigh*I walk through a path of tall and untamed grass. Wild dandelions fly as I walk by them, and the sun shines at its peak, yet its heat is soothing, not overwhelming. The wind blows on my face, and there is pure peace embracing me.Am I dreaming?No, this is not a dream, it is so real. I feel the grass at the tip of my fingers and I sense the texture of them. I see a cabin, a very old one, and a scarecrow that is standing in the middle of the empty land. I frown as I notice that there are no crows nor any animals around us.Everything seems so eery and quiet. Too quiet.As the seconds pass and I keep walking, I get worried, something is about to happen or is happening. I am not sure what it is, even though I keep looking all around me, but something doesn’t fit. Is like I am inside a painting, a living painting.It is when I open my mouth to talk, that I realize that I have no voice as well, and now, I know this must be a nightmare.‘Seth, can you feel me?’ I try to reach for

    *Caleb*I watch as Aen handles the elementals calmly. It is not an easy task, yet his experience in battle allows to use his command voice with every one of them. It is something out of an epic story, and yet we find ourselves helpless while we wait.Ebony and Ivory are having a small talk with Sol, the angels like her a lot, which ensures her protection. Is not like she would need so much of it, she is her own worst enemy. But to know they are fond of my daughter just makes me happy.“Where are your thoughts?” Amra asks me as I keep staring at my daughter and the angels.“My thoughts are a bit drifting, I don’t like the idea of coming to a war unprepared,” I admit to him. I know he is also worried, although he shows himself much more calm and collected.“I understand that, and it does bring me worries. I like to be in control of the situation, but nothing that is happening is under our control… in fact, I think the only thing under our control is the lack of actions.”I sigh and shak
