Fiona

Life has been pretty mundane for the most part. It was basically just the same shit only a different day. Wake up, train, work, repeat. The only thing that really made it drag on a little more was having Salila around to correct my behavior. Nothing against her at all, she was actually pretty awesome, but oh how I loathed acting. I had a hard time biting my tongue, and now I had to not only do that but also pretend I wasn't and with a smile on my face.

It took a while, but we came up with a very happy middle ground. I still went out and trained with the warriors. I even brought on a few more females to take the place of those who didn't bother to help Lian when she needed it. I understand the hesitation in fighting Clyde, but they didn't even bother to go for help. They didn't deserve the level of trust and clearly couldn't handle the responsibility of being a warrior.

It was difficult allowing Beckett to act like he was my guard. I made it clear to everyone that he was the head

    SenoraAs soon as I got home from work, Fiona informed me that she wanted Colton, Lian, Trenton, Jordan, Matthew, and I to rotate out doing perimeter sweeps, and asked that I go on next. I really didn't feel like it after working with a few of the younger horses that morning, but it's not like I really had much of a choice. Typically, this was a daily job that was split up amongst the regular warriors, not the lead warriors, so I had no clue what was going on for her to want to change things up to this degree and curiosity was getting to me.I started making my way back towards the house in hopes that I would return in time to get something for dinner before any of the leftovers were gone, when a familiar jet black horse came into my view. "Colton, what the hell are you doing here? Your shift isn't next." I gave him a curious look as he immediately shifted back into his handsome human form that has become simply irresistible to me over the years."It's not like I'm going to have dinner

    FionaBeckett and I were sitting in the living room reading our books in silence, both of us awaiting the arrival of my brother and whomever else he might be bringing with him.The front door quickly flung open as Senora, Colton, and Lian came running in. I tilted my head to the side, confused why the three of them were together."Fiona, your brother and a small group of werewolves are in the woods on their way here."I smiled and nodded at Colton. "Smart on his part for walking instead of simply driving to the house, he probably suspects what's coming."Senora gave me a knowing smile as she put two and two together. "You knew he was coming? Is this why you wanted us doing the perimeter sweeps?"My smile grew. "I did, and it is. I trust you guys to come to me first instead of handling things yourselves. You know how young warriors are, always wanting to prove themselves. I want this for myself." I couldn't help the slightly evil tone that my voice held as I thought about the fun I was

    LeviI made plans with Sol and Celeste for a day out together and an early dinner. They still had some resentment over the entire mate thing, but luckily, time isn't the same for us as it is for humans and the worst part of their anger didn't really last long.They took one look at me when they walked through the front door and expressions of humored shock immediately took over their faces. "Dad, what the fuck is on your face?" I reached a hand up and took ahold of my facial hair, stroking it slowly. "It's called a beard, Sol. Maybe once you hit puberty you'll be able to grow one, too.""I thought that we were all going to get together and go out today?"I contorted my face in confusion at Celeste. "We are.""Not with you looking like that, we're not!"Sol started laughing at his sister's remark."What's wrong with the way I look?"Sol scoffed and shook his head. "Dad, come on. You look like you're pissed off at the world and want to take your anger out on every tree you see."My face

    FionaAs soon as the door shut behind Cerulean and his packmates, I sent a group message to Trenton, Matthew, and Jordan, instructing them to hurry over to the house so that I could fill them in on everything and ensure that all of our warriors were prepared as quickly as possible. Senora, Colton, Lian, Beckett, and Salila didn't waste any time coming in, eager to find out what exactly was going on."Due to the fact your brother was here, I'm assuming that he needs our help." Colton had a smug grin on his face as he sat on the couch next to Senora."Is it that obvious?"Senora nodded her head. "He hasn't been here since you basically told him to fuck off, so, yeah. It's pretty obvious."Trenton, Matthew, and Jordan made their way in, and I waited for them to get settled before I continued on."Long story short. We need to prepare the warriors for a battle. I don't know how big it is going to be, but I can guarantee that it's not going to be easy." I looked each of my lead warriors in t

    FionaGoing into battle might be a serious matter of life and death, but this was also going to be the moment that my family found out I had added on a lot of female warriors as well and that they weren't simply training.After Cerulean asked us to put a hurry on our warriors, I sent Trenton, Jordan, Colton, and Matthew out with the typical around 150 male warriors to Moon Rain's territory to meet up with my sisters' warriors and prepare. From what I heard, the total number of fairies was about the same as the wolves' entire pack, which obviously meant that there would be far more fairies fighting than K9s. I was hoping to hear that the wolves at least had their allies fighting alongside us, but wish in one hand ....Times are different than what they used to be. The supernatural population is dwindling at a steady pace as the human world grows. It's next to impossible to stay true to ourselves while keeping the truth hidden at the same time, let alone add in all of the restrictions th

    LianI was proving to be a somewhat decent equestrian with the fact that I somehow managed to successfully stay on Senora's back in battle, despite not having a saddle to help keep me in place.I had to laugh to myself when Senora made the mistake of biting the throat out of some disgusting creature from the underworld and she couldn't get the rotten burnt taste out of her mouth. After that mishap, she decided to stick with using her hooves to kill.Senora had just stomped in the skull of a rogue wolf that thought it was wise to try to wrap it's mouth around one of her legs with it's rotten teeth, while I sliced the head off of a grotesque troll that used the opportunity to try to stab Senora when she wasn't looking. That's when we felt the slight quake in the ground below, and a lump formed in my throat when we looked up to see a large orc making its way towards us."Running isn't really an option right now, Senora!" Senora simply snorted her reply as she put all of her strength into

    FionaWhen fairies die, our bodies turn into the element which we belong to. In life we are simply someone that has passed through a human's life. They might even vaguely remember us and wonder what happened to us. In death we become the stray flower, a random gust of wind, a sunbeam that burns a little hotter than it should, or an unexpected raindrop that's never even thought of. We mourn our loved ones that are lost, but we move on quickly knowing that they are where they belong and are at their eternal rest with nature.Levi stayed around the entire time that I made sure the lost souls were at peace, helped the wolves to heal everyone that we could, and ensured that all of my people made their way back home.Neither one of us spoke about our own private matters as we quietly walked up the stairs of my front porch. I was exhausted, and looking forward to getting into the shower, alone.I opened the front door and turned around to face Levi. "You don't have to stay. I'm sure that you

    FionaAfter our emotionally passionate quickie, Levi and I took a shower before passing out from exhaustion. I had never been so mentally, emotionally, and physically exhausted before.The sunlight eventually started sneaking it's way through my bedroom window, waking me from my slumber. It had been a long time since I let the sunrise wake me up, and even longer since I woke up in the arms of someone else. Levi's hand slowly traced soft lines up and down my back, letting me know that he was also awake.A slight smile formed on my face as I started tracing his abs with my finger. "Well, that was the quickest that I ever got off ...." I whispered as I contained my smile.Levi let out a large breath of air. "Hearing that doesn't exactly make me feel good.""I think that you lasted longer the first time, but this time was better.""Fiona .....""No, seriously though. Hear me out. They both blended together. It was the most erotic sensation I had ever felt."I felt the sharp movement of Le

    FionaI felt like a child in a classroom as we all looked at the two gray-haired women standing before us. Their combined aura was more intimidating than I cared to admit. I got the impression that Anne was much older than Aisling, despite looking like she was the younger of the two."I'll make this as short as possible, as I have somewhere else I'm needed that's honestly a lot more important than being here, explaining things to you .....""Short, but obviously not sweet," Dhara quipped from Matthew's lap with a smirk as Sharia and Maya giggled.My eyes widened as they went from Anne, to Dhara, and back to Anne again."Just like your mother, aren't you?" Anne asked as she glared at Dhara.Aisling rolled her eyes, clicking her tongue in irritation. "You all just need to shut up for once and listen to Anne. She knows more than all of you put together. It wouldn't exactly hurt you to have a mentor of her standards."Anne smiled as Dhara's face fell. "Aisling and I have known each other f

    FionaThe air was eerily quiet around us as the sun set in the background, making the sky look like it was angry, or possibly embarrassed. I honestly couldn't tell which.It was as if nature itself knew the severity of what I had just done, and was shocked into silence. Not a tweet from a bird, a bark from a squirrel, nor a rustle of leaves from the wind, as there wasn't even a slight breeze. I couldn't even hear the water splash from Seneca Lake. It was like everything stopped to contemplate the meaning of life. After I swallowed the scratchy lump that had formed in my throat, I opened my mouth to speak, my voice hoarse thanks to the fire that had escaped it. "Why don't you all go home and try to relax for the night. I thank you all from the bottom of my heart for showing up and supporting me. The others and I have a lot to discuss and try to figure out."As if the Earth's silence became their own, the group of water fairies that stood behind me quietly dispersed.I turned around and

    Senora The burning lava substance made it's way towards Aisling, as screams from the crowd filled the air around us, a combination of shock, fear, and anger as to what they were seeing of their elders.Rieka immediately stepped between Aisling and the burning material, stopping it with her powers."A little help would be nice!" Rieka yelled as she pushed her feet into the dirt to brace herself.You know how they say everything was in slow motion? Well, it wasn't. I didn't even have a chance to react as I watched from the porch, a mixture of emotions coursing through my body. I was completely clueless about how to react, and if it wasn't for Rieka ...."Colton, what the fuck are we supposed to do?! They're our elders!"Colton turned and looked at me with an equally confused and shocked expression. "You're asking me?! The fuck if I know!"Cerulean shook his head. "Rhi is the only one of us that can actually stop them without fighting them .....""We fu.cking SHOULD be fucking fighting t

    FionaThe events that took place were all just a little too surreal. I was still having a hard time believing that the six dragon elders simply washed their hands of their long-standing duties, leaving the deities in complete charge of their hemispheres. But I suppose when you've gone so long living a lie about things that you stopped believing in, and losing children because of those things, you stop caring. Funny how the fear to stand up for what's right leaves one's mind once others are willing to do the same.The elder dragons all made their way back to their homes to take care of business, while the rest of us did the same. Once we were just a few hours from home, we decided to rent an SUV big enough to seat the seven of us comfortably and drive the rest of the way back. It was simply easier than trying to fly into the city as exhausted as we were.I was honestly enjoying the ride as I leaned onto Levi and he wrapped his arm around me. Everything finally felt .... right.Rhi's voi

    Beckett"Trust me," Joseline said.Two simple words. For years, the fairies didn't trust the dragons. To be honest, we never really even had much to do with them. Whenever there was a ceremony held, everyone was invited out of courtesy, nothing more.But now the twist of fate has ripped the door of change off of its hinges, allowing things to happen that were never allowed to happen before. Changes that should have been allowed to take place so long ago, but couldn't thanks to a few of the close-minded, power-hungry, and arrogant elders in power. That, mixed with the fear that many had to stand up to do what's right.This is what happens when we allow others to have the power to be in control for so long. When one tries to force others to think, feel, and believe what they do, they no longer care about anyone other than themselves. Mix it in with a fear of what they don't understand and anger about what they don't agree with, and it creates hatred that shouldn't be. A hate that those i

    FionaThe Andes, Copahue volcano to be specific. Of course, we would have to travel a ridiculous distance away from home and that puke would go to his own hemisphere. We all knew Glaurung would, it was just a matter of him tiring himself out enough to make a mistake and alert Fafnir of his general location. Despite the reason we were here, and the fact that we were bouncing around in one of the Avtoros Shaman 8x8s that Fafnir insisted on buying, I still appreciated nature's beauty as I looked out the window. It was raining, after all. What more could I ask for?In true fashion, I pissed off those who I instructed to stay behind when I told them that they had to watch over things in my absence, which went over as well as accidentally using super glue instead of lube on your privates.I can understand their frustration. Honestly, I can. Whereas I told them it wasn't their fight, it's really not my fight either, and yet here I am. I couldn't risk my fairies' lives for this, and I really p

    FionaLevi and I had just gotten out of the shower and we're getting ready for bed. The TV was on for background noise, and when the news came on I couldn't help but stop and watch."Fiona, you need to turn the TV off."I continued to stand there, watching the news in my robe. "Do you see what they're showing? So many people had it recorded!"Levi walked up next to me, placing a hand on my lower back. "Yeah, and the police believe that someone snuck into my building and fried my system all for a stunt to get attention. Remember when you told me that people freaked out thinking that the floating candles you guys released for Nixie were UFOs? This will pass."I closed my eyes as I shook my head. "This isn't over, Levi. This is just the beginning. The door has simply been opened. I can feel it.""Maybe so, but for right now we have more important things to deal with. If Glaurung stops moving long enough, Fafnir should be able to pick up on his location through their connection since Rhi

    Fiona Sol had an open link going between himself, Celeste, Seth, and Rhi during the entire council meeting. It was an extremely helpful way to keep us all informed of everything as it happened, and shortly after we were given the ok to send Fafnir in, is when all hell broke loose. I figured things wouldn't go over well, which is why we decided Joseline should stay home with Beckett. She was just a dragon compared to the rest of us in that room. Even Roxie being mated with Cerulean, thus a fairy princess, wouldn't be bothered if the elders knew what was good for them. I never anticipated running into the room and actually seeing the body of a female dragon turn into red ashes before dissipating into the air, as my mate hurried towards the broken window, stopping my heart, but thankfully not my brain nor mouth. "Don't you dare, Levi!" Levi pointed angrily to where the dragon's body used to be. "Did you not see what just happened?! I can't let him escape!" "Don't you fucking argue wi

    LeviThe morning that has brought us all together has finally graced us with her presence, as daylight slowly crept in through the curtains.Fiona rolled over and placed her head on my shoulder as she laid a hand on my chest, delicately tracking imaginary lines.Despite the day that awaited us, it was a much better start than what yesterday morning was. Aisling succeeded in getting Fiona pretty well lit the other night. So much so that Fiona didn't even realize that I got into the bed next to her after making sure that Sol, Celeste, and Fafnir were settled at my place.It took a few aspirin, a lot of water, and a light breakfast before Fiona was even able to function without looking like she was going to go on a killing spree. I tried telling her that an orgasm would help get rid of her headache, but she chose to ignore me. Luckily, we all managed to get a good game plan going, but you know what they say .... life happens when you're busy making plans.My heart was racing as I took the
