Havermouth, Present TimeShe knew. Aislen could see Leighton in Abigail’s mind, and that the she-wolf had already reached a decision, as had Sigrid and her mates. Aislen’s mates were more divided. Talen wondered about the implications for Meguitte in surrendering Leighton. Heath believed that it was a sacrifice worth making but was concerned with the logistics of how. Rhett just wanted the war to end, and life to return to normal and Cameron was concerned ethically about the betrayal of someone who was a kind of friend.“I am told,” Niarthen looked at Aislen. “That the pollution of the water is not an act of war against the Mer,” he believed that Aislen believed it, but had not entirely discounted it as a possibility himself. “But rather the outcome of a magical mistake?”“That is what we understand,” Abigail said. There was a reaction from the alphas on screen as they had not known of the origins of the water sickness and Abigail let them rage for a moment before holding up her hand.
The Pack's Emissary An Unwelcome Visitor to the River House
Havermouth, Present TimeMeguitte did not have to dig far into the kitchen cupboards to find what she needed. “This is… quite the most organized kitchen I have ever been in,” she remarked in surprise. “Everything on the shelves is lined up, handles turned the same way, cutlery nestled into each other… Do people actually live like this?”“Heath does,” Jules replied with a twist of amusement. He stood with the landline phone receiver pinched between chin and shoulder, holding a very grubby child’s t-shirt in his hands. From where she was, Meguitte could hear the AI voice inform him politely that the person that he called was not available and to please leave a message.Jules cleared his throat, awkwardly. “Um, hi…” He started. “You don’t know me. I don’t know you. And I’m hoping you’re okay. We were in Trayrock when the Mer invaded… you might not know they’re the Mer,” he corrected himself. “The army that blew the place apart invaded. Anyway. Somehow in all the chaos, the group that I w
The Pack's Emissary A Final Vote
Havermouth, Present Time"Whilst we're all here," Father Isaiah spoke up as the Mer stepped out of the shop. "And before these gentlemen disconnect," he nodded to the screen. "I have a proposition from The Order of the Phoenix that I would like to discuss with you all.""Someone has forgotten that they are a prisoner it seems," Aislen commented. There was something... Different about the man, she noticed and frowned as she studied him closer. He had come in bruised and bloody, with broken fingers and a swollen lip."Am I a prisoner though?" Father Isaiah arched an eyebrow. "Or an ally? You heard that Merman. Even if you give him what he wants he won't promise peace. He only promises to talk to those above him. They'll probably just wait until you hand your friend over and then attack. On the other hand, we can unify our efforts against them. The Order of Nexsis has the armies of the world at our beck and call as well as our own. You have your people, and your supernatural abilities. U
The Pack's Emissary Toby’s Exploding Apple
Havermouth, Present Time“We can’t forget that somewhere the Van Helsings have a fucking army of zombies,” Aislen said as they walked through the pretty streets of Havermouth toward the Salem home.There were scars left behind on the street by previous battles, and every here and there was evidence of Sigrid’s efforts to predict the path of the Mer army – a barricade repurposed from the Van Helsing occupation, a car or truck parked at an angle, blocking off the road. The further from the center of the town, however, the less evidence remained before – until they neared the high school. The burnt-out and upturned ruins of cars remained, and there was a grubbiness to the rooves and houses that had been left by the ash of the explosion and would take several seasons of rain or a good scrub to wash away.They passed down her street, and although it took them a little off route, walked down to the house.As they drew near, Cameron clapped his hands together. “There it is!” He said trotting
The Pack's Emissary Dragons and Past Lovers
Havermouth, Present Time“Well?” Phillip asked half an hour and three destroyed apples later as he showed them to the door again, leaving Toby with Lauren, Anne, and a delighted Jessica, picking mashed apple up from around the room. “He’s something supernatural. No human is that strong.”“No,” Talen agreed. “But there’s no blood lust, and so far, no shifting, correct?”“I guess we’ll have to wait for the full moon to see if he has to shift,” Phillip agreed.“There is another possibility,” Aislen said slowly. It was obvious that the blood given to Toby had done something, but she didn’t think that he was vampire, werewolf, or hybrid, which really only left one other option considering the blood that he’d been given. “I asked Samuel to give Toby his blood.”“There goes the décor if he shifts,” Rhett joked.“Where is Samuel?” Phillip wondered looking up automatically. “Perhaps he could tell?”“He’ll be somewhere up there,” Aislen stepped through the calf-length grass until she was in a c
The Pack's Emissary Big Spoon Little Spoon
Havermouth, Present Time“Sigrid, understandably perhaps considering everything that has been going on, appears to have forgotten her promise to supply me with Jules’ blood,” Leighton replied easily as he wrote on the label of a jar already filled with the red liquid. “And Jules was in Havermouth so fleetingly that I did not have a chance to get my equipment together for the collection before he’d vanished again. I drove out this morning in case I managed to track him down, and I did,” he smiled pleasantly at Jules.“I think that’s enough blood,” Harry said from the couch. “You will leave my beloved dehydrated and weak.”“I should have enough with this second jar,” Leighton assured them. “I have been greedy,” he admitted. “And taken more than I normally would, but in the circumstances, I’m sure you can understand why,” he said to Jules directly.“In case I get killed?” Jules arched an eyebrow. “I don’t intend on dying.”“Good,” Leighton eased the needle from Jules’ arm and pressed a s
The Pack's Emissary Morning Glory
Havermouth, Present Time“Why in all that’s hellish?” Rhett complained into his pillow when Cameron crawled over him, seeking freedom from the bed.“Shhh,” Cameron whispered. “I’m just going to get some work done.”“Just go,” Rhett’s mutters were slurred as he slipped back into slumber.Aislen was warmly tucked into Talen’s chest and felt as if she registered the exchange from a deep, soft cocoon of sleep that was not yet ready to release her. She drifted off into dream. In it she watched from one side of the river as a young woman began to undress. The dream was so vivid that she could feel the bark of the tree that she leaned against under her palm, she could smell the leaves crushed beneath her boots and feel the wet heat of the afternoon on her skin.The woman removed the cap that covered her hair, and then unwound the coronet of braids, weaving her fingers through the strands until she was cloaked in gold. As she waded into the water, her hair spreading over the surface and the
The Pack's Emissary A Perfect Morning
Havermouth, Present TimeThe door to Heath’s office was open and Aislen paused, leaning against the door frame and watching as Heath busied himself with paperwork. He wore a creamy white knit jumper and grey slacks, and his slightly overgrown hair had been styled back from his face. He looked up and smiled at her.“What?” He asked. “Did you need help with your shoes?”“Yes, but also, you’re very casually a lawyer today,” she observed. “I don’t think I’ve seen you pulling off this look recently. It’s been more rolled in a ditch while someone was shooting at me, than generational wealth.”“I’m not sure which description is more insulting,” he chuckled and pushed back his chair. “Come here then and I’ll help you with your shoes.”She rounded the desk and wriggled her bum up onto the polished surface before placing a foot on the chair seat between the spread of his thighs. His hands stroked down her calf to her ankle lifting her foot and placing it on his thigh, almost on his cock. She wr
