Quirina

Bryce and I fell asleep next to one another last night. It was the best sleep I’ve ever had and I can’t imagine trying to sleep without him. The one thing I liked most about it though is that we stayed together because we wanted to not because we did it out of some lust-induced haze.

Honestly, I’m glad Rowan interrupted us yesterday. Who knows how far we would’ve gone if we weren’t interrupted?

We’ll get there, we’ll get to all of the physical stuff, but right now, there’s still so much we’re trying to figure out, it’s probably for the best that we don’t do more.

I’m still laying in his bed, looking up at the top of the fort that he made. I know that if I move that it will wake him up because truly there’s no graceful way to get out of the fort. I breathe out and try to

    QuirinaTrying to convince Annabelle that Bryce and I didn’t do anything was hard. Considering the fact that I came back in my room in the morning and dressed in his clothes, it does look a little suspicious.I would still be talking to her now if one of the omegas didn’t come to get me because my parents are requesting for me. Annabelle looks at me peculiarly and I don’t blame her, it’s very odd for my parents to call on me nowadays. Without even asking, Annabelle leaves and I get dressed for the day.I find a pair of slacks and a floral blouse and put on some ballet flats before running off to my parents in their office. They both sit at the desk and smile at me coming in and mom says, “You look nice today, Q.”I smile back at her, “Thanks mom, um… what&rs

    QuirinaI look over my shoulder to see a man and a woman that I’ve never seen before, but behind them… I see the pack doctor trying to quietly beckon me. I give him a single nod and send a mind link to him saying, “Go to the sitting area on the Alpha’s floor. I’ll be with you momentarily.”I must’ve accidentally had my mind block up because I can’t think of any other reason that he would come to seek me out. My eyes flicker to the man and the woman, but they aren’t looking at me, they’re looking at Bryce.I look back at Bryce to see that he has slightly paled as he says, “Mom, dad, what are you doing here?”His mom scoffs, “Is that any way to treat your parents when you haven’t seen them in months? Come give me a hug.”He pushes off the counter and obliges with her request. He gives his mom a hug, but when he faces his father, he holds his shoulders back and gives a firm handshake and says, “Nice to see you, sir.”My eyes narrow, that’s an odd way to address your dad after not seeing h

    QuirinaMy parents aren’t in the office. It’s weird… normally that’s where they are, but there’s still a few other places I can look for them.They aren’t in their bedroom, not in the kitchen, and not in any of the normal sitting areas or with Charlie, Harper, Phillip, Isadora, Magnolia, or Hendrix. Where the hell could they have gone off to?My grandparents are here. They must be doing something with them and Felicity. But… where would they go off to?I huff as I head down the stairs and walk out the front door, determined to find out where they may have gone off to.As I step out into the cool air, I catch a metallic scent in the air. Blood. But... who would be bleeding that

    QuirinaI walked around every trail we have in the pack, I tried to mind link both of my parents but their shields are up. Surely, they didn't leave early. They would've told me or at least mind linked me to let me know I was in charge a day early.I huff out of exhaustion as I walk through the pack house's front door. I hear soft giggles and walk to the kitchen where Felicity is happily baking with the cooks. I frown because if she's here then my parents can't be too far behind. I go to the stairs and take them two at a time as I rush to my parent's office. Nope, still not there.I huff as I turn around and go to their bedroom and then finally, I see them. I frown, "Where the heck have the two of you been?"My mom looks at me startled and asks, "What do you mean, hon?""We've been around the pack all day," Dad adds. I nod as I enter their room and say, "Well, you've conveniently been everywhere I haven't."Dad chuckles, "Purely a coincidence, kids. What's going on, anyway?"I shut th

    QuirinaMy afternoon was surprisingly peaceful. I had lunch with Bryce, I rested and read a book, and now it’s time for dinner. Dinner is much more lively than normal. It’s my grandparents, my parents, Charlie and Harper, Phillip and Isadora, Magnolia and Hendrix, Annabelle, Franklin, surprisingly Hazel, Josephine, Cameron, Declan, Felicity, me, Bryce, Hiro, Peyton, and Tony.The table is noisy and full of chatter, but everything is lighthearted and I’m grateful that Bryce and Peyton’s parents didn’t want to join us. Bryce sits beside me and leans a little closer and asks in a low voice, “Is it always this crazy?”I chuckle, “Pretty much. The only people out of place is my grandparents, you, Hiro, Peyton, and Tony. And Hazel, she’s always a hit or miss on whether or not she joins for dinner.”He smiles as his eyes flicker to Hazel who is sitting next to her mom. He says, “She seems a lot happier than the first time I met her.”I nod my head in agreement, he’s right, honestly, she seem

    QuirinaIt’s like my body knew that my parents were gone.At four in the morning I was wide awake. And although I was comfortable with Bryce’s arm around me, I found myself unable to remain in bed.I got up and left him alone in my room. I walked down the hall toward Felicity’s room and I listened outside her door, but there is no noise in there so I know she’s okay. My stomach churns and I’m not sure why. Is my gut telling me that something is going to happen?Is it the new responsibility?I don’t know, but I feel unnerved.I walk around the pack house and slowly make my way down the stairs and to the kitchen. The lights are turned off, no one will be in here for awhile. I sigh as I turn the lights on and start on a pot of coffee. I know there’s no chance I’ll fall asleep again so I might as well fully wake up and maybe do some work.As the coffee brews I hear footsteps down the stairs. I lean against the counter and glance up, surprised to see Hiro walk into the room. His eyebrows r

    QuirinaI stare at the stranger in front of me. A thousand emotions racing through me because the last thing I want to do is turn away someone that is truly in need. But… I don’t know this woman, I don’t know how many people are hiding behind her.And my parents just left. Doesn’t this all seem just too coincidental?I ask, “Where did you come from?”Her eyebrows furrow deeply as she frowns, obviously annoyed that I even asked instead of just welcoming her into my home. A small child runs out and then clings to her side, the child is caked with mud and sweat and the woman pleads, “Could you please let us in?”My eyes flicker down to the child and up to the woods behind her and I ask, “How many are accompanying you?”A flash of anger goes through her eyes and I take a step back, back into my border, back where if she tried to attack me that she would be crossing our lines. Her eyes flicker to my feet as she took in my movements. She shakes her head, “We’ve heard good things about this

    Annabelle Once we’re far enough away from Bryce and his family I turn to see Franklin and he says, “I’ve learned it’s best not to interact with Bryce’s parents.” He led me to the kitchen and offers me a water bottle. He says, “They’re rather intense, don’t you think?” I nod in agreement and take a sip of the drink before asking, “Why do you think they want him to reject Quirina?” “It has to do with the whole ability thing. They must’ve thought you didn’t have one considering they were telling Bryce how great you were.” My nose scrunches up in distaste, I can’t believe they were doing that. It’s ridiculous, how can you keep true mates from one another? That shouldn’t be a thing. Franklin changes topics, ‘How are you enjoying your first day acting as Beta?” I shrug, “It’s been easy. How about you, Gamma?” He chuckles and shakes his head, it causes his light brown curly hair to bounce. He says, “It’s been fine, I’ve been used to the duties.

  • The Alpha's Daughter's Revenge   Epilogue

    Five Months Later.QuirinaBryce and I officially became the Alpha and Female Alpha of the Moon Stone Pack three months ago. Annabelle and Franklin became our Beta couple, Hiro and Hazel became our Gamma couple, and Rowan and Winnie are enjoying not having as many responsibilities.All the issues we previously had with Hazel completely disappeared when she finally accepted Hiro as her mate. Because when he marked her, he was able to take away her gift. He holds her power and give it back to her if she ever wants it, but she seems thrilled about no longer seeing when people will die.Mom and dad still live at the pack house, but they are enjoying no longer being in charge and getting to fully focus on Felicity. I don’t know if they’ll ever go anywhere without her again because she has struggled with separation anxiety ever since they returned home.My biological parents have come to visit me and to meet the rest of my family. I talk with them at least 3 times a week, they are perfectly

    QuirinaBryce, Charlie, and Harper and I headed home after only two days after the fight. There weren’t many survivors left that were a part of the trafficking ring, but there were tons of kids in the school. My parents along with Magnolia and Hendrix are meeting up with other pack leaders and trying to split up the rest of the people appropriately. There will be no more Supernatural Academy and no more trafficking.I mean, we know it’s impossible to completely abolish all trafficking, but we have done our part and this has helped to take down a huge contributor. I’m ready to be back home, the desire to be some place familiar and to unwind after all the recent events. Bryce had marked me, but I still haven’t marked him, it hasn’t felt right. He’s practically buzzing and glowing with some energy he has now. I don’t know exactly what it is, but I know he received some of the powers that I absorbed.I haven’t even discovered everything I absorbed in that moment. I was so desperate to be

    BryceThe door opened and we had been expecting more guards or for more prisoners. But now, Phoenix Stone walks into the room.All the guards that had been sitting without a care in the world suddenly stand at attention. I watch in fascination as dark black swirls crawl up Phoenix’s arms and he smirks, “If I were you, I would lock yourself in one of the cages. Or else I’ll make you crumble like the rest of them.”Most of the guards seemed concerned as soon as he said that. Everyone has heard of what Alpha Stone is capable of, and everyone knows that he would do anything for his family and for the legacy he had created. But there’s a couple of guards who doubt him. And one asks, “What do you mean by the rest of them?”Phoenix gives the most wicked smile I’ve ever seen, it’s almost bone-chilling in it’s ruthlessness as he says, “You would not be my first death of day. Now, I will count to five and whoever is out of the cells, well… we’ll get to have some fun.”After that announcement p

    QuirinaI think most people would find it odd if I told them that I actually thrive off of chaos. But the moment that I zapped the cameras and everything went down, I took off running. I could hear the whole mansion as it descended into chaos. Everyone complaining, trying to keep guard of their current prisoners, and trying too figure out what the hell happened to me.I can’t help but smirk to myself as I run. I don’t know where I’m going or what exactly I’m doing, but I’ve caused enough chaos that I have time to search without instantly getting caught. I find a stairwell and run down it as fast as my legs can carry me. The first door I see on my right, I open to turn into only to be instantly met by a group of five warriors. I close the door back and take off running back down the stairs, I hear them behind me. Fear is gripping my heart now as I am more panicked than before.I enjoy chaos, but I don’t enjoy the adrenaline that comes with it. It makes me struggle to think clearly and

    QuirinaI have to get out. I have to find help. I don’t know what I’m going to do… they’ll figure it out as soon as I leave the mansion and then I’ll be captured before I get anywhere close to the pack borders.My mind is reeling as I rush from one room to the next hopefully getting further from the danger but honestly who knows? I’m running on instinct here.I need to find my family, all of them. Because regardless if we’re blood related or not, we are all family. I try to reach out through the mind link but I huff in frustration as I realize no one is connecting with me.I let out a low grumble and then focus on my surroundings. I haven’t found a single room with a window for me to look outside, I haven’t run into anyone. This is a little too suspicious, wouldn’t there be a lot of people looking for me? My eyes flicker around the room, trying to uncover some answer that I haven’t been able to figure out yet. And my body tenses when I figure out the reason. There’s a camera, it’s sm

    QuirinaThe room is too quiet, too cold, too… unnerving.The headmaster looks at me, I’m currently cursing myself for not asking his name. The fact that he knows mine but I don’t know his makes me uneasy. He smiles at me and says, “I don’t know where your parents are, Ms. Stone.”I narrow my eyes at him and spit out, “Liar.”The corner of his mouth twitches up in an amused smirk, like he is enjoying knowing that he is able to get a rise out of me. I want to punch him in the face for it.He gestures towards the chair and says, “Please, take a seat, let us talk like adults.” The way he speaks to me is patronizing, my hands ball up into fists out of frustration. His hazel eyes flicker down to my hands before looking up at me and he says, “I assume you would want to do things properly considering you are about to take the Alpha position. You don’t want to start off with a bad reputation.”I snap at him, “I think you and I both know that my reputation doesn’t matter. It already isn’t in st

    BryceI follow behind everyone as we go into the mysterious Supernatural Academy. I’ve heard so much about this place and yet… I don’t know what to think now that I’m here.Quirina is obviously tense and on high alert. She’s towards the front of the group and a small part of me feels uncomfortable with how far apart we are, but I know it’s for the best for her to be towards the front.We come across a mansion like building and Beta Charlie breathes out, “Welcome to the Academy headquarters.”Quirina look to him and looks around, “The headquarters? Not the building where all the students are kept?”He shakes his head no and explains, “This is for staff to live at when they don’t have a rotation at the school. Gives them a chance to be away from the students.”She nods her head, but I notice her deep furrowed brow, something isn’t sitting right with her. It’s moments like these that I wish we had already marked and mated one another because I would love to know what she’s thinking about

    QuirinaThe plane ride was quiet, neither Bryce nor I spoke as we flew to my parents. The entire time he held my hand, letting me know that he is here for me if and when I choose to talk.I don’t want to talk. I want to get there now and make sure that they’re okay. When the plane lands Bryce just gives me a tight-lipped smile. I thank the pilot and we get off. Bryce asks me, “So, how do we get there?”I smile softly, “Leave that to me.”At that moment a car pulls up and an older man comes out and says, “A pleasure to see you, Ms. Stone, Mr. Lake.”I nod at the valet and both Bryce and I get in the car and it takes off in the direction I need it to. I know that we will have to walk a bit later, but for now I just lean my head on Bryce’s shoulder and enjoy the ride. He looks out the window, watching as the world passes on around us. I sit up when the valet asks, “Are you here to meet up with the rest of them?”I frown, “Who?”This causes him to frown and he remarks, “The other ones fro

    VioletWe’ve been at the Academy for just over a month now.I was right, there was something fishy going on here.They never quit with their antics. All this time, all these years, I thought we had gotten control of the human trafficking, I thought we had ended it! Only to find out that for the most part we did, but for the kids who show potential to be strong they are never put as available for adoption.Quirina was an exception because they couldn’t figure out to control her, but because she was so powerful they thought her brother would be to. So, they kept her brother’s identity from us so that way if he showed potential they would be able to sell him. My fists ball in frustration, I should’ve known. It was too good to be true. But because we found out about it and they found out we found out, now we’re trapped. We’ve been separated for two weeks now, I have no idea what they’ve done to Phoenix, but it makes me worried. Ever since we met, we’ve never been separated for this long.
