The woman in the cave

Pov: Winston

I didn't remember it being so hard to her little hideout, a cave that was really just a large hole carved into the side of the mountain. Tremendously high from the ground.

I hide climbed into Maya's cave for sport all the time when I was a kid. It was literally the only thing I was good at when i was still a pup. The only thing besides fucking shit up, that I was completely good at.

Maya was never kind to me. But she wasn't cruel either.

She was a hybrid, half wolf, half witch and she had retreated to these parts after the discrimination and stigma became too high among the women in the camp during her time.

She wasn't kind, she wasn't cruel. She was only just bitter.

My mother used to pay her a visit three times a week, bringing camp gossips her way and delectable foods every once in a while. And I used to tag along too.

After my mother fell ill from an unnamed illness, I started paying her these visits on my own. She made me sit by the fire and o

    The Witch's TalePov: Winston"How Nathan is being treated is even more despicable than how I was being treated during my time. And the worst part is, I had no affection whatsoever for the camp. My mother was a werewolf, married to a werewolf but had been sleeping with a warlock, and when she gave birth to me, the child of her sacrilege, I was cursed to never be able to transform. My mother was dragged and humiliated for cheating on her husband, much more with a 'lesser' creature and she took her life when she couldn't stand the humiliation anymore... After she died, they turned that hate on me. i had loved the pack at first and really tried to fit in, but after my mother took her life, I became the subject of their attacks, the topic of their gossip. It wasn't much better in the household I shared with my father, he beat me everyday and tore my skin open and bashed my head against the walls whenever he felt like. He called me a whore, an abomination. When it got too much, I moved awa

    ConsequencesPov: MaddisonI was just stepping out of the bathroom, wrapped in a fluffy white towel, my hair and body, damp from the shower when the door flew open and Winston swooped in, worried out of his mind, his eyes unsettled and frantic, his body, pulsing with unspent energy.He barrelled into the room, looking around frantically, his voice dripping in urgency. "Maddie! Maddison, where are you?!""Winston?" I asked, confused.His entire body froze at my voice. He turned around and saw me standing at a corner of the room, in his blindspot and his shoulders sagged with relief."Maddie, god!" He cried in relief, walking over to me and sweeping me into his strong, strong arms.I sank into his embrace, clutching at his arm and he held me in place, sighing into my hair."God, I was so worried!" He breathed, his breathing uneven, his voice hoarse, "I almost tore down the forest trying to find you. I thought I told you to stay there?"My heart set out like a siren at the awful, awful m

    Hang from the GallowsPov: WinstonThe Supreme Court was a little more like a glorified throne room where I usually meted out judgements or solved disputes during my first few years, reigning as alpha. It lay behind two huge set of metal doors carved into the side of a a huge mountain on the other end of my territory.I had called a meeting, commanding all of my subects to gather there today for a tremendously more important announcement, an icy judgement, a ruthless punishment I was going to mete out on the one werewolf stupid enough to dare lay his hands on my mate.A growl rumbled in my chest just at the thought of it. At the thought of this... Lowlife, with the audacity to harm Maddison.I had been too young to notice it, or even do anything about it, but Maya had said that my own mother had been treated unfairly by other pack members, even though she had been carrying the Alpha's son. And she wasn't the Luna, but a certain level of respect should still have been reserved for her.

I asked my best friend now, raising an amused brow.He looked at me, shocked at first, and then he caught on to the fact that I was actually smiling at him, and his lips stretched into a conniving grin that was so Nate... That grin that made him look like you two were in on a private joke or something. Even if he had no idea what you were talking about, his goofy grins made you think he did."Thanks, man," he said now, his voice turning serious as he went to perch on the raised steps to the boxing ring. "I... I was actually going to leave today, immediately afte

Cold and calculating and belting out orders, pushing me to my max.I had changed my diet to contain more protein and carb contents as per Nathan's instructions and I had jogged and worked out and pushed my body to the extreme under Ethan's tutelage and Gwyn helped with my meditation and tutored me in basic human anatomy.The first day of my training with Ethan, I was a sweating, sobbing, puking, breathless mess on the floor of the sparring courtyard in the big house that was really the grandest mansion I had ever seen.On the fourth day, I wasn't doing much better, but at least, I had learned to throw a punch without causing much damage to myself, and I wasn't as breathless and winded after each early morning jog."You're punching all wrong," he told me in my first day.

These wheels or disks of spinning energy each correspond to certain nerve bundles and major organs. To function at their best, your chakras need to stay open, or balanced. If they get blocked, you may experience physical or emotional symptoms related to a particular chakra."There are seven main chakras that run along your spine. They start at the base, of your spine and extend to the crown of your head. But these are only your main chakra points where energy is gathered in the

Because, since the assault from William went down my mother always calls me up at seven in the mornings.But today, I didn't see her phone call."Winston!" I cried alarmed. "Winston, wake up," I begged, already sliding out of bed.He sat up, awake and alert immediately, searching my face frantically. "What happened, Maddie? Did anything happen to you?""Yes. I need you to drive me back to the city. I need to see my mother," I explained hurriedly as I slipped out of my nightdress and shimmied into a pair of jeans and tugged on a tank top.Winston

Nonetheless, I extracted myself from her body and strapped myself to the seat. She was quiet as I inputed the address information into the gps all over again and I understood why she would be so rattled. She had just lost her best friend. What I didn't understand was why she had suddenly stopped consoling Olivia, the moment she saw that thing on her phone. I was dying to know what it was. I was dying to let her let me in. But her end of the telepathic bond I shared with her had gone depressingly silent and cold. It took a while. Hours and hours and more frustrating hours on the road, but we finally got to her house. She stepped out of the car and looked at the stately brick house surrounded by a green lawn in front and green fields at the back. The front door had been smashed in, thanks to me,

    It was a blur from then on.They whipped me with whips laced in silver, fed me Aurum and argentum and made me inhale wolfesbane, the grounded petals of a flower that attacked our cardio vascular system. They flogged me with silver studded sticks and kicked me with silver soled shoes and stabbed at me and poked fun at me and laughed at me.Maddie was struggling so hard in her seat, crying and begging in mumbles for them to stop.I was weak. My eyes were closing. I could have died any second...And then, i heard a growl so gutteral, so beast like, from the other side of the room, in the direction where Maddie was.At first, I thought that it was all in my head, because no no no... It cannot be.But the others fell silent and stopped their assault on me.Maddie was growling, deep in her throat, her eyes were flashing yellow with beast like slits as pupils. Fur sprouted out of her skin. She seemed to grow bigger and bigger on the seat and stood on her feet, still tied to the chair, and ke

    daysPov: WinstonIt took me a while to rouse to consciousness. Gwyn had been the first one to wake and porge the sleeping pills out of her system, because she had the lightest weight and then, she made a disgustingly smelling potion and held it up at each of our noses, to wake us up too.And so, that was how I woke up to a pungent, egg smelling potion bomb, exploding in my nose.I looked up at the grim faces of my best friends, together with Cerulean and Lapis' worried gazes and wondered what the fuck their problems were.Why were they in my room, looking at me like that? I turned to my side to ask Maddie if she was seeing what I was seeing... And had the shock of my life.Maddie's side of the bed was empty. "Where is she?!" I had growled desperately."We don't know," Gwyn had whispered, "but from the looks of it, she had drugged us and ran away.""What?!" A tremor shook my spine. I was up and out of the bed immediately, tugging on a shirt and pants and grabbing my car keys, a mill

    The ghost of a smile stayed on my lips but as I continued the story, my smile dropped and fell from my face. "I stayed with Mr Winston for a while, but one day, I decided to go back home to get the rest of my things and really leave for the last time... Or at least, the last time before I start the divorce process... My husband. He was a raging angry drunk that night. There was a party playing in the apartment and I had already packed my things but he cornered me and... And he..." my voice shook.Olivia looked at me worriedly, her beautiful face twisted into a concerned scowl.I took a deep breath. "He beat me up, Olivia."A shocked gasp escaped her lungs."Yeahhh... Winston kind of... Saved me that night, and took me away to one of his islands while I got healed up. He took care of me, Liv.""Like he should," she beamed at me. She suddenly froze,her eyes going wide. She snapped her fingers. "THAT'S why the two of you have not been at work lately!" She exclaimed, her eyes softening. "

    AmbushPov: MaddisonIt was an entire month and half before I hatched my failproof plan. Before I got the motivation at all.I was able to sneak out of the Grand Mansion without Winston noticing that morning.It actually helped that I had taken charge of dinner and I may or may not have drugged everyone's food.I left the conservation at five in the morning, when Winston was still sleeping peacefully beside me, his arms around my waist, pulling me close and tugging him to his torso.I had made the call last night and the recipient was probably eagerly awaiting my return, back in the city... But I needed to do this right, and I didn't want any distracrions.I hadn't slept a wink last night, and we had talked and laughed and even made love and I swallowed a sigh of relief when the drugs began to take effect and his speech started slurring and he was mumbling and falling over his words.My eyes were wide open, i slid his arm away from my waist, slowly, quietly, just incase I had not give
