FAYE

After Erin's impromptu departure with her mate, Nathan disappeared for the rest of the day. I sort of didn't care where he'd disappeared to. I thought that he'd at least rethink his decision of sending me back to my father.

I skipped dinner and went to bed early, knowing what I had to do would take meticulous planning.

What I knew was that I had to have a reason to leave the property, and it was only Nathan that could grant me permission, so I made that the first thing I needed to do.

The next day came by quickly. I'd already decided to put my plans into motion today, and the first step was to get Nathan's permission to leave the premises.

Although I'd rather do any other thing than talk to him right now but I didn't have a choice. It was that or do nothing.

I went downstairs for breakfast, hoping to see him there. Although I came later than usual, Nathan wasn't there. My gaze kept going to the doorway, but he never walked in.

Breakfast was uncomfortable enough with him pre

    NATHAN"Did you get all that, Jules?" Lannon asked the boy. "Yeah, got it. Anything else you need me to know?"The boy was just about twenty-one or two. Green-eyed boys eager to do something for their Alpha and become part of the trusted inner circle. We'd practically raised them with Patrice after we'd lost their father.The twins were well trained in combat. But they didn't exactly have all that much experience with any real fighting.But Jules had a little more experience than Louis. He'd trained to get into the army, adamantly refusing to listen when we'd warned him he couldn't enlist, cause they'd find him out. He'd had to listen when he'd hurt himself during training and healed immediately. He had learnt himself that we were right and was discharged before being shipped out on grounds of a medical injury. We'd had to use one of us who was a top seat politician to get him out. Louis and Jules were hard-headed and wild. Seasoned club goers and hard partyers. They fit in with

    NATHANRhea rushed at me, and I knew those eyes.She was desperate to say something.Zelda's put her hand up into midair, ready to hex Rhea if she made a sneaky move. I gave her the 'calm the fuck down look' as I took Rhea's hand and moved out of the space with the witches, Zelda quietly creeping behind us. "What's wrong, Rhea?" I muttered in the dark."There's a line of wolfsbane around them. You can't get through. And if you try, you'll get hurt. Badly."She didn't need to tell me twice. If I tried to get through that barrier, I'd burn to a toast faster than I could heal."What do I do now?""I can break the link somewhere and then you do what you gotta do." Zelda mumbled."Okay. Go do that."Rhea's arm flashed to pull me back, dropping it immediately after I'd turned."Once you cut the link, they're going to feel it." Her eyes warned me to be prepared. Warned us. I gave her a curt nod. Pulling her to the corner, out of harm's way. Walking back to the rectangular prism on the fl

    FAYEI did it. I'd finally escaped from Nathan and my father. I left through the staff's door of the mall, not looking back. I ran when I was outside the building. I kept looking over my shoulders to know if Jason had found me. Had he told Nathan by now? I wondered. I walked and walked until I found myself in a park. I was tired and exhausted from all the running. I was so unnerved, expecting Nathan to just pop out of nowhere and drag me back to the estate. Or worse, to my father.I sat down next to a pregnant lady. She had a dog with her. The dog came over to my side. I didn't know if it was because of my wolf or if it did that purely on his own. I leaned down and petted the dog behind its ear, which it seemed to enjoy judging by the way he yipped. The lady apologized to me, feeling sorry for the way her dog barked at me. "Oh, I'm so sorry. Please pay him no mind. I don't know what's come over him today." The lady said to me, trying to get the dog to behave."It's okay. Really.

    NATHANThere's a party at the pack house. Everywhere was lit up, and the music was so loud it could make your ears bleed. Courtesy of the twins return. Those boys found an excuse to throw a rave party anytime.And I couldn't stop it, no matter how much I wanted to. Cause the boys had reason to celebrate.They'd barely escaped the clutches of the witches. And they'd helped so willingly. Besides, their pack mates knew there had been a disturbance in the area with the new witches no one had actually seen or met. Everyone knew today that they'd been 'run out of town.'I went inside the study, sinking into a chair as I brooded. Faye was missing still. She'd somehow managed to actually give Jason the slip. And I had to make sure they found her unharmed. She always fell into every trouble. Even members of the pack that weren't so useful were my responsibility, too. She was just a vulnerable teenage girl really, and she'd gone out in the world where both humans and non humans could hurt

    FAYEI sat down in my room, waiting for Patrice to return. She'd left earlier after telling me what she had in mind. Although I doubted Nathan would listen to her, I hoped he did. Restlessly, I waited in the living room for a couple of hours before I gave up and went to my room. What was taking her so long? Maybe she just hadn't found the right time to talk to him, or maybe he didn't care anymore. I sighed and just walked to the window. I couldn't think straight anymore.Roaming around the, I found a small bookshelf in the room and browsed through the books on it. I picked a book from the small shelf in the room and started reading. I read for a while before I dozed off into a fitful sleep. I slept for a few hours but woke up to a sound from the front door. I sat up in the bed, thinking that it was Patrice at the door. I stood up and walked to the bedroom door. I pulled it open and was met with silence, so I called out her name."Patrice?" I called out. No one answered me. I he

    NATHANI paced the floor of the study, hands raking through my hair in a cold, hard manner. This wasn't part of the plan. Everything was shot to hell, because of one little latent girl who wouldn't do as she was told. The deal was simple. She'd get to go out if only she was going with a protective detail. Just keep to our deal and then get back to the house. That was it. But she'd gone and gotten captured by the feral witch who was probably ready to do and undo, cause untold havoc because we'd killed her coven sisters. Lannon was standing by the bookshelves to my left, quietly observing the rest of the room as he leaned against the bookshelf. Carolyn and Zelda sat comfortably, as they waited for us to enlighten them on the new development. Patrice spoke. "Faye ran out on her protective detail when they went to the mall. This was the same day my boys went missing. I didn't know the boys were gone, just as I didn't know what Faye planned. I swear..." she said, throwing me a furtive g

    NATHAN"We do? I mean, you do?" She asked, brows furrowed, like she couldn't even begin to understand what I'd just said. "I thought the location of the moonstone was unknown to everyone." Ernouf said dumbly. "It is not known to everyone. Only the elders of the packs know the true location of it." Zelda said."You knew where it was this whole time?" Carolyn asked her with disbelief."The moonstone is moved from pack to pack every four years." I explained."For protection and to keep its location secret." Lannon added from his favorite place in the shadows."Oh…" Ernouf nodded slowly as it finally sunk in.Carolyn didn't make a sound. She was probably pissed that everyone but her knew about it."They have charged Black Saint pack with keeping it safe for close to four years now. It'll soon be time to get it to a different pack." Patrice mumbled."Isn't that more reason we shouldn't be doing this?" Carolyn asked, wisely keeping her eyes averted from me."We're going to get Faye back.

    RHEAI was sitting outside the house on the porch when a familiar car rolled up and parked in our driveway. I waited to see if it was Nathan that came or any of the others, but I was secretly hoping that it was him. He'd spoken to me on the phone just minutes ago, telling me we had to meet up.I sat straight and put my phone in my jean pocket when the car door opened and climbed down the small stairs, a smile appearing on my face when I saw it really was Nathan. He hard never met with me outside his pack house. My allure had never drawn him that close. What was he doing here? I asked myself."Hi." I chirped at him and came to stand Infront of him."Hey." He said with a curt nod, his voice brisk. Too business like. "What's up?" I asked him."I need you to assist me with something, Rhea." He replied, his eyes hard and serious.I eyed him suspiciously. It wasn't like the Black Saint to seek help from outside. And if he indeed needed me, then something was up. "Okay? What is this urgen

    Faye"Yvonne, this place is too much." I glanced around the fully decorated condo, my excitement simmering with the idea of this space being mine to do with as I please.The place is amazing. More than I could have hoped for, and I’ve only made it to the living room. There is a huge fireplace and a big soft gray sectional sofa that looks fluffy and comfortable. Big pillows line most of it and it looks so cozy. There is light everywhere, shining in from the floor-to-ceiling windows looking out over Vegas."That place is perfect." she told me on the phone."The security is top notch.You can order food whenever you want and they have a gym and a spa downstairs. Everything you need with only a call.""It’s safe," she pushed. "You could come stay with me if you’d prefer. I’d love to have you at home, but I thought you might want your own place."I'd started my post graduate studies, this time nearer to home and I'd gotten a whole condo to stay in for the duration of my studies.

    TWO MONTHS LATERFAYEI sat in front of Yvonne as she explained the dynamics of our business relationship with some other company.I wasn't listening to her. I was mostly just nodding, so she could continue to speak. "Faye? Faye? Are you listening?"I sighed and nodded, not knowing how to tell her what bothers me. "Faye tell me. You know you haven't spoken a lot about what happened in that forest with the Black Saint. I can't believe you went in there without letting me know." She still spoke of it frequently with anger l, but she was beginning to forgive me. It wasn't everyday a person's niece went to the forest of lost souls and made it out alone. I sighed again and she scolded me angrily."That's the fifteenth sigh today, fifteenth, and it's not even mid morning yet. Why do you sound like you lost a loved one, my dear?""Maybe cause I did lose a loved one?"I told her, my face falling as I remembered said loved one again. "Is this about Nathan?"I looked at her and nodded. I c

    NATHANThe witch died how she had planned for me to die. A fitting end for someone who'd come with the sole aim of destroying me. Faye massaged her wrists where those damn fools must have tied her up before. I moved to her and held both her wrists in my hands, caressing them softly, so that the ache could go away.She wasn't responding to me. She just stood there, stiffly by my side. I looked into her face and I couldn't read anything.I missed the days when I would look at her face and see what she was thinking, what she was feeling. "Won't you go after him?" Faye asked, pointing in the direction Axel had run in. I shook my head. "Lannon will take care of him."Her mouth dropped open. "Lannon is here too?""Yes, Queeny. He entered the forest the night before we did.""I can't believe you have been lying to me this whole time. About everything!" She screamed in a hurt tone, stepping away from me. I rushed to her, brushing her still wet hair from her face and cupping her face in

    FAYE"Briggs was my sister and you killed her!" she yelled, her voice rising on each word until my ears felt scraped by her shrill tone.Nathan looked bored with the whole thing. He didn't look as bothered by the fact that we were in danger, surrounded by our enemies who had upper hand."So that's why you want to destroy my pack so bad. Well I can't say I'm sorry, Vera. Your sister messed with the wrong pack, just like you're doing now, and she got what she deserved, just like you will." He said, with finality behind his words. She growled and screamed unfamiliar words at him, her magic sending him flying into the concrete wall. I winced as he landed with his arm and felt myself go weak for a second.I was still finding it an ordeal watching Nathan get hurt. It was a lot. "I guess we're done here."Axel said and shifted back from Vera."You can take care of them sweetie, do whatever you please."Vera smirked and strolled around to me.I saw Nathan's body tighten and get ready for a

    FAYEMy heart broke at his words and I felt like a sham at his words. I'd believe I could be Luna because both Yvonne and Axel has stood by me and encouraged me. And now he said this?"Imagine my surprise when after years of devotion to the pack, Yvonne went in search of a daughter I had never heard about. A daughter that had never been around. I was passed over for you?" He said like he still couldn't believe it. "It's a fucking joke, my sweet." I felt sick at the stupid endearment.Tears formed in my eyes and I pressed them closed tightly.I knew Nathan's focus was on me, he would go ballistic of I cried. I wanted to hear all of it.No, I needed to hear everything."I didn't want Yvonne to go looking for you, prayed to the moon goddess that she didn't find you, but guess what? She did. Because this dumbass Buffon,"he said, pointing at Nathan, "threw you out. He couldn't even love you properly then and you still went back to him when you returned home. After all I'd done for you.

    FAYEI was sitting in a chair with my arms tied down to the arms of the chair when I came to.The black bag over my face was still there, but it wasn't tight around my face anymore.I tried to look through it but all I could see was little light, peeking at me through the bag.All of a sudden the bag was yanked off my head and I found myself looking at Axel. I felt elated that I'd found him, but I also felt angry about what he'd done. And why did he send people to kidnap me?"Axel," I started.He raised a hand, cutting me off. "it's not just you I need to talk to. I want to talk to your lover too. I wonder what could be holding him back. Does he not love you as much as you think he does, perhaps?"I snorted and his gaze flashed with annoyance."Or maybe he's content to abandon you here. Not even bother coming to get you."I glared at him and said nothing.Axel laughed. "Well, either way, we've got more than enough time together. But first, I think your friend is going to want to mee

    NATHANThere was a tinkle of laughter in the air when I woke up.The sound was pleasant to my ears and made me ache to find the owner of the laugh.My eyes slid open and rested on Faye. Something was making her happy this morning.I could relate too, cause I felt really happy too. Despite everything that had happened yesterday, it was great to see that we were okay.In fact, we were more than okay. We had finally talked about the part of me that I'd always locked away, never wanted to talk about with anyone, or show anybody.She giggled again, looking up at something I couldn't see and I had to ask her. "Heyy, Queeny." I said, wondering how she'd react this time to the nickname she was always irritated by. "Heyyy." She replied, not really paying me much attention. There was an excitement to her movements though, and a wide smile on her face. I could watch her smile all day, or just listen to her laugh and feel good when the day ended. "What are you doing?" I asked her.Not to

    FAYEI held his bandaged hands in my hands. He'd scared the hell out of me when he had run out on me like that. I couldn't believe what I had heard. He'd said Dad, and then he'd started calling out mother.I didn't know what he'd been seeing but it sure felt very intense from where I had witnessed it.There was no one else in the forest except for me and Faye, everything else was false. I told myself repeatedly, trying to quell the worry I had now. What if I was the problem that needed to be stopped?What if I saw things just as clearly as Nathan had?I shook my head and refused to fall for it. "We need to keep moving." Nathan said to me and I agreed.We had to leave that area. We had both taken a drink of the potion now, and nothing more could happen to us for a few more hours.It was getting dark now. I didn't know if this was an effect of the forest magic or something else but we had to rest. We stopped and collected wood for a fire together.We stacked the wood and then s

    NATHANI'd scared her badly.For her to have cracked and spilled those tears in front of me.She was so icy now, I doubted she ever cried infront of anyone.I had felt something change between us. She wasn't saying anything now, just walking stiffly beside me. I looked ahead, raising tree branches that hung low so that both of us could make our way through.We trudged on, the low bushes and weeds brushing against our thighs and lower legs.The roots that were off the ground were not easy to spot, and almost brought her down twice, with me reaching out to steady her and getting rebuffed each time.I could take that.For now. I would take it until she didn't want to throw me off anymore. Couldn't reject me.I walked around a tree and her eyes followed me sharperly, showing me she was watching me, even though she pretended not to be. I chuckled to myself, coming out onto the path we were walking.Something felt eerily quiet about the forest.It wasn't just that I already knew it was
