Chapter 106:

last update Last Updated: 2024-05-21 03:27:58

A few hours later, after a desperate run to civilization, I returned with the withdrawn cash in hand. The gym was even more empty than when I had first seen it, only Joseph sitting with a couple of guards, which was much better odds if Waren tried to double cross me.

I didn't think he would from my impression, although I still didn't let down my guard. I passed the money over to one of the men who had been with Waren, and Joseph was shoved roughly forward towards me. He stumbled before righting himself. His face was blank and he kept his eyes down, but he followed me as we left the building without further opposition.

We shifted and left the Red Wolves territory as quickly as we could, not stopping for a break until we had put as much distance as we could between us and them.

Joseph was even more quiet and subdued than usual, and I didn't interrupt him, because now that the crisis was over, I was lost in my own thoughts about what I'd heard from the Red Wolves.

    "Mad, so good to see you again," the dean said. I leaned on the crutches as we shook hands before taking the proffered seats by her desk."Likewise, Dean Jordan. This is Joseph, a pack mate of mine."She nodded her greeting and then we went on to speak of my current search about my mate who happened to be with a vampire. I politely inquire about the state of the school, and she responded in kind, before she got to the tricky part of the visit. “So this mate of yours, do you have any pictures of her so I'll know if she’s been here?” she asked.I took Carrie’s picture from my pocket and showed it to her. “Hmmm.”“Did you see her here?”“Yes,” she said and looked at me. “Her name was Carnation and she’s a vampire wife named Lucas. Is she your mate?” I nodded at her. “She has changed her hair color and her name but she is Carrie, my name. It has been long since she left me and our pack to help search for the Queen of Vampire’s grandson. Sadly, the prince was retrieved but my mate didn

    I had a system for checking every new non-mundane place I searched, carved by long practice. The first step was to go wherever the most action was happening.This time I was in luck because the man who I first approached in front of the cave had been eyeing us. Since his complexion was pale, he was probably a vampire."You’re not from here. Do you have any business here?" he told me as he dragged me into his cave. Joseph trailing behind us like a skulking shadow."We were trailing someone and we have been told that they might pass here," I said as he led us to the deepest part of his cave. “I’m Madoka and this one is my pack member, Joseph.”“I see. You two didn’t smell like rogues. Figures. I’m Damon,” he said and lit up a cigarette. “There’s no one passing here that I didn’t notice. Name? Or maybe do you have some pictures?” I showed her Carrie’s picture and almost immediately, the cigarette in his mouth dropped and his eyes widened in shock.“This woman,” he said. “Even though she

    I followed Joseph around the wilds around the no man's land staying well away from pack territories, for two days. With Joseph as my guide, I knew we could reach there before Carrie would go too far away from me.Occasionally, he would comment about something he remembered, some recollection of an abandoned pup, and I kept the pointlessness of what we were doing to myself."We stayed here the first winter, Alpha. This place usually has a harsh snowstorm. We can’t continue our trip without letting the surge pass," Joseph told me. "Pretty good hunting and I shifted so we didn't freeze." We passed a roughly constructed structure that could barely be considered a shelter, built from refuse and branches, and nearly falling to the ground while nature swallowed it up from all directions.The idea of children shivering out in this hovel in the middle of the wilderness pissed me off.A snap caught my ear. I wasn't the only one, Joseph looking in the same direction as the sound. "Pretend you d

    It was past time to know what Joseph was hiding. I would have preferred if he had told me voluntarily, but maybe that was asking too much. The wolf with the knife to his throat began to speak."He made a deal with our alpha, but ran off with the money. Alpha wasn't happy about that.""What was the deal?""Information."I looked towards my pack mate and decided to give him one final chance. "Want to confess?"Joseph’s shoulders slumped, but he kept his teeth in the leg of the unconscious wolf beside him and just watched what was unfolding.It was a convoluted situation that he was helping me threaten answers that exposed his own wrongdoing out of these enemies. But even with exposure looming over him, he didn't say anything.I turned back to the wolf and he asked, "If I tell you what you want to know, will you let him go?""Sounds a fair trade to me.""He was supposed to spy on Sakura and report back, I think."Joseph’s flinch confirmed that this wolf was telling the truth."Just repo

    I knelt on the side of the road, numb with despair."Alpha." Joseph was tense and cautious like he was approaching a wild animal. Had he witnessed everything?Had he seen my mate leave me? After almost a year, did she forget me? No, I think. Maybe the potion’s work. Her memories were messing up or at least I presume.It hurt. It hurt so unbelievably badly.Joseph nudged me with his foot. "Get off the road before someone sideswipes you, Alpha."That sounded like a positive outcome. Maybe if they hit me hard enough, this pain would be over. I just knelt where I was, ignoring him. Nothing he could say would change anything.Joseph just stood and watched me for a long moment."So, uh, what are we going to do, Alpha?"I don't know.As the months had stretched to almost a year, I finally met her again. For the first time in that time, he was pushing me with all his strength for control, and I wasn't sure I wanted to just let go and give it to him. I could try more. I had tried for so long.

    I kept busy alternately stalking through the forest or calling any contact I could think of who might be of assistance. It was morning a few days later when the sounds of a pair of stumbling feet caught my attention, breaking the long wait. It wasn't a werewolf, because we moved with the grace of our animals in the forest. Joseph and I exchanged glances, and just before we hid, I caught Dean Jordan's scent. She broke through the trees. Dean Jordan flew just behind him. "Greetings, Mad!" she called, her voice jarringly cheerful under the circumstances. "Sorry I took so long," Jordan chirped. "Humans are so slow in the forest." "She's not wrong," Joseph agreed with a wolfy shrug. Jordan wasn't too tired to shoot her a dirty look. "My expertise is magical subterfuge, not traipsing around the forest. We built civilization so no one would have to deal with this unruly mess if they didn't want to. You're welcome." Jordan shrugged. "It's not my expertise either, but I manage

    Carrie's Point of View“You’re a wolf and I could see you were being restrained by something that shouldn’t be used,” an old lady said when I first saw me. “Y-you knew?” I asked her, trying not to cry. I struggled to remember this man that has always been in my mind. I felt like I knew him but couldn’t just think when or how. There’s a thick fog clouding my mind. “Your wife is fighting. She can’t let that potion take over her.”“Can you help me? I wanted to get out of here, it felt so wrong to be here,” I said. The old lady smiled and took my hand. “Don’t worry, child. The fate wasn’t sleeping after all. You’ll have the freedom that you want very soon.”That conversation was two months ago. The old woman I talked to was found dead the next day. And I have been stuck here after we left the place where I met her. I was told I am Lucas’ property and I should be a trophy wife but I doubt it. He said we will be back home in Europe. That's what he said but after another long evening o

    Sometimes he fed quickly and roughly, other times he forced me to socialize with him as if we had some sort of relationship, although even then his hatred for me never left his eyes. This was all well kept secret to Lucas. Apparently tonight was the latter.I silently watched as the vampire led me around the hall. Amy had finished her high wire strip show, although her night was likely far from over if the new guest had anything to say about it. I pushed aside my revulsion and watched as a human witch painted scenes with colored smoke hanging in the air. With the wisps, he formed a rhinoceros and sent the beast charging into the opposite wall, dissolving into plumes of smoke, catching the attention and scattered applause from the guests mingling about.As I watched the show, I silently endured, keeping my head down with a false smile frozen on my face. Every night I quietly got through and hoped to fall asleep as soon as possible. I only wanted to see the man whose name I can’t remembe

  • The Pain Of Rejection   Epilogue

    Madoka had frozen in shock when I had informed him of the news that we were getting an addition to our little family. Once he recovered, he picked me up and spun me around in excitement.He managed to impregnate me without my heat, so I guess all those cringey informational videos and parental lectures they'd subjected us to in our teenage years had been valid.Telling Madoka I was pregnant again had been easy, because I had always been able to tell him everything since the moment we discovered we were mates.Spencer, on the other hand, I was worried about. He was five years old now, and he had been the sole centre of my adoration for as long as he'd existed. Meeting Nathan was the best thing I did and now I learned that I am pregnant after so long. But I was still nervous. Madoka probably wasn't expecting it either. His attitude was comforting, although it was a bit annoying how he always took everything in stride while I was busy being stressed out. It always took a lot to get him

    Carrie's point of viewI woke to the light of dawn hitting my eyes, and I instantly recognized that I was lying on some velvet bedsheet and remembered what had happened.Madoka was still sleeping beside me, his breathing deep and even, and normally I would not have bothered him. Last night was so intense. And we did it all through the night. That was a new experience with Madoka, I was eager for more. What he had done to my body was amazing and helped satisfy that ache for a long time and what he had done was...interesting"Madoka?"I watched him as he moved slightly but not opening his eyes. I liked his dumbstruck reaction and his satisfaction more than anything else, and I especially liked the way he seemed so unusually relaxed afterwards. He always seemed so tense, but for once, it seemed like he had not a care in the world, and it had been me who had done that to him. I understand it. We were separated many times.I slept in his arms in just a t-shirt and panties. I was about to

    I turned the corner to find the open foyer with the beige spiral stairs. Golden lights mounted on the walls protected by zigzag semitransparent glass. It gave the walls an elegant glow with jagged slices of lights against the exposed brick wall.Annoyed, I stepped inside to leave through the front gate when suddenly, high heels clicked against the grey stone tiles stealing my attention, halting me in place. I waited for the woman to pass.Tall slender legs appeared from behind the wall. The lighting made her legs look like molten caramel. The navy silk dress slid behind as she stepped forward revealing her silky thighs. Her long hair waved around her perfectly semi moon ass. My gazed caressed up her hips to her luscious chest that were barely hidden by the scrap of clothing hanging of her creamy shoulders.My lower region tightened. It's been a while since someone evoked an arousal like that from me. Actually, no one had ever been able to evoke the fire I left inside. My eyes finally

    Madoka’s Point of ViewCarrie has returned. I was so excited to finally come back home despite her strong warning not to come for her. My wolf has been angry. He kept on pushing me to come and save her. The long agonising days finally ended and she came home victorious. Not only did she kill Lucas, she also set herself free from the potion. Now, she’s back as the real Carrie who loved her pack and her family. She was fine and doing her Luna duties. Other than not wanting to eat any food that our omega has cooked for, everything seemed fine. “Babe, can you please look out for Spencer? I’m tired. I want to sleep,” she said and stood up from her desk. “Sure, babe,” I answered her back but I knew something was off. She hasn't eaten even a bit and when asking Marcus and Brigit about what happened to her, they would always answer that there’s nothing wrong with her. But I knew something was wrong. That night, I was about to enter our room when I heard a crashing sound inside. I immedi

    I walked in through the doorway, sighing loudly. It had been a long and trying day. I didn’t look around me too closely as I laid the keys on the counter and collapsed on the couch.My legs hung off the edge with my feet dangling above the ground. I swayed slightly while closing my eyes, trying to find some peace on this day. It has been scheduled that tonight, we will go back to my pack. “Carrie.” I jumped slightly at the noise suddenly coming from behind me. Without opening my eyes, I knew who it was. I sighed internally at the thing drawing me away from my relaxation.“Carrie.” The voice spoke again, now in a normal tone.I groaned and split my eyes open, letting cracks of light appear in my vision. “What do you want?”The light in my vision dimmed as the figure of Brigit appeared. Her hair fell over her face and into mine, tickling my forehead. I groaned again, louder now, knowing what she wanted me to do.“Come on. It’s been too long and you know you’re tired.” Brigit disappeare

    I slowly descended upon his convulsing body, prey now becoming predator. I put my other hand around his neck wringing it in the process, preparing to end this once and for all. I stared down at the monster's frame, no remorse hitting my body. All there was, was a bloodthirsty motive to kill him. As I leaned over his head, a hand on my shoulder tried to whip me around. I turned to face Brigit, a bloodied, broken, and bruised Brigit. I relaxed when I realised it was her, before questioning her move. "Let go of me, I'm going to finish this." I turned back around with her hand still gripping my shoulder. My hands shook and my vision was dark, but I was going to kill this monster once and for all. "Let’s do this together" Brigit started. I looked at her incredulously before he continued on. "We will end this monster once and for all." Her eyes searched mine and I saw the worried expression she held. I was surprised at her words and struggled to form my own. "But-I-Brigit you can hardl

    "I'm ok." My whisper seemed to echo through the Hall. I listened to it as it escaped my lips, knowing I was far from alright. Memories from my life kept fading in and out of my mind. They were almost as painful as the poison running its course through my veins. "We can't stay here anymore." Brigit sounded next to me." They heard your screams and know we're here. We have to hide somewhere else."As she was speaking she lifted herself from the floor we had been crouched in. She attempted to help me up as well, but failed in the effort. Her arm was still badly wounded and she could barely stand herself. As she looked to see if the coast was clear, I lifted myself off the ground as well. Every inch of my being burned, but I knew our only chance was to get out of here. Just as we were emerging from the foliage, a sweet voice met my ears. "Girls, where do you think you're going?" I stared in horror at what once was my friend. Her calm and cool collection from earlier was gone, replaced

    If I was lucky, the shadow of the gigantic sofa would swallow me and leave no trace of where I was.I waited, breathless, for what seemed like hours. In reality, barely seconds had passed. I heard footsteps drawing near to me, heavy on the tiles beneath them. They came quickly towards where I lay, but stopped feet away. I could hear whoever it was panting hard, clearly out of breath.“Carrie?” A quiet whisper rang out in the night.I recognized the voice immediately, and sprang from my spot on the floor.“Brigit, I’m here.” I whispered back to her.I saw her face turn towards me, and her body relaxed. She ran towards where I was, half standing on the ground.“Thank god you’re safe. I thought I was too late.” She helped me up and brought me into her arms in a rushed hug. “Now come on, we’ve gotta get out of here. We don’t have a lot of time. Lucas’s minions are still lurking in this house. We need to hide and go far from them.”Brigit grabbed my arm and began to lead me back to the mai

    Thoughts swarmed my mind. Why would they hesitate? I don’t understand. Leonardo lingered over me, breathing heavily with rage. "By the time you die, you'll be nothing but bones. Once this poison is in your system, I'm afraid there's no going back. You are so dumb Carrie. You’re trying to kill every one of my kind and yours." His voice was low, almost a whisper. It seemed the time for yelling was gone. Now there was a rage so malicious and a hint of fear. I wished he would scream.I smirked. “Well, that would be fun. Even if I die, I’m dragging you two with me.” My voice came out in calm breaths. The burning inside of me was still growing. “It’s such sight seeing fear in your eyes, Lucas. What happened to the proud and ambitious vampire?”Lucas looked at me with disgust."Oh, my dear Carrie. Haven't you figured it out yet?" I met his question with a glare, at which he responded, laughing. "This 'poison' you and Brigit keep talking about isn't a poison. It's a weapon. But not just
