In a flash, I am on top of the one that I had picked out and the rest are running as soon as they notice the danger. She is a fighter and keeps trying to get away but I am not letting my meal go. This was almost too easy but there are no complaints.
I barely manage to resist taking a bite before I begin to drag her back to the cottage. Elle was insistent that I bring back anything that I catch for her to check over before I actually consume it. She is paranoid that I will be poisoned again and this time there will be nobody to notice for a while if I need help since witches do not have the ability to mind like each other.
It only took me a few minutes to make my way to the herd of deer when I was being fueled on by my hunger. Dragging the dead deer back is making it take much longer though. I would love to use my powers to make this go a little easier for me. Wait, on that note, I could always cause a small breeze to help me move her all of the way back to the co
My shower helped to calm the nerves after my latest run in with the witches. They should not have known where I was or that it was even me with the glamour on me. How were they able to find me so easily? After I get dressed I head back out to see what Elle thinks of all of this. She has to know that something about what happened.When I walk back outside I can see her looking over the deer carcass still. I had not expected her to spend this long looking at it. Maybe she found something?"I do not want you to eat this deer." She says simply.My mouth is still watering at the thought of eating meat so I just reply dumbfounded with a, "Huh?""This deer. I do not think that you should eat it. In fact, I do not think that you should eat anything out of these woods nearby. They are all meant for you. I cannot tell what they are supposed to do but I do know that they are all some type of a trap for you. Luckily, you did not take a bite out of it when you c
Learning how to create something new from the earth is quite exhausting. When the price is not very high then it mostly just takes from energy reserves. The witch's energy reserves. So, after practicing for a couple of hours, I am exhausted. I have no idea how I am supposed to do much else tonight.Elle does not say much to me besides her instructions. She seems to be just as worried as I am about the other witches closing in on us. I know that she would not be training me as hard if it were not for all of the threats that we have been facing recently. As it is, I feel like she is trying to fit years of training into just a couple of weeks. Not sure how much I can learn but I am determined to keep trying.The thought of seeing Dante soon is distracting. I can't stop thinking about how it feels to sleep next to him, just to have him touch me, hug me and hold me. Up until now I have been avoiding dwelling on the sensation of missing him too much but now it seems to be al
It is finally time for us to head back to the pack. This week has drug on and on. It has been a real struggle focusing on anything that I am supposed to be learning but that should be much easier after today.We are going to meet Dante and a few others from the pack right down the river from my childhood home. From there we will travel with them the rest of the way back to the pack house. I am finally going to go home again.I am a little worried about Elle being in my pack though. I know that she is only going to be there for protection and training purposes but it is something that has not been done for hundreds of years. At one point in the distant past witches would sometimes live with wolves to offer their protection and healing powers. It has been a long time since that has happened but maybe it is something that we could bring back again.We are leaving when it is still dark outside so that we can meet the guys at first light. The witches will
As I begin running down the side of the mountain to intercept the witches I rip off the glamour that Elle had placed on me before leaving the cottage. As the witches turn towards me their eyes widen a little in surprise. Pretty soon it will be in fear as well. They are not going to mess with my pack.I skid to a stop with the witches sandwiched between us and the wolves. They have nowhere to go right now without having to fight on both sides to get out. They are trapped with a running river on one side, a pack of wolves on another side, the mountain on the third side and me and my grandmother behind them.When they see Elle running behind me their eyes widen even farther in shock. According to Rosa, nobody has seen her since the attack on my family so they must not have expected to see her out here today. Shifting into my human form, I plant my hands on my hips in all my naked glory and look down at them."Do you think that you are
We do not make it back to the packhouse until night time so I take Elle to one of our spare rooms before we head to bed. I expect to fall into an instant sleep after the long day of fighting and travelling but after one look at Dante as he stares at me intently and I know that that is not going to happen for a few hours.I look over my shoulder at him as I head into the bathroom leaving a trail of clothes in my wake. He follows like he is in a trance as he begins to lose his clothes as well. I turn the water on in the garden tub right before he pounces on me. The water has not even filled the tub an entire inch before we are sinking onto the ground in front of the tub. He is rougher than normal after all of our time apart but we cannot keep our hands off of each other as we finish in a tangled mess before the tub is completely full.Slowly, I pull my sore body into the hot bath tub and let out a sigh as he settles in behind me. He starts to wash my hair as I rela
"So where am I staying if the room here is not where you planned? I would rather not be hidden away. If I am to stay here then I do not want to be hidden away. I plan on helping out and not being a secret." Elle says matter of factly."I would never dream of hiding you away. After we leave here I will take you to a small house that I think you would like. It is secluded but it is not to hide you away. You will have to see when we get there." Dante says mysteriously.I had not heard of any of his plans for her as of yet so I am rather curious as well. Where is he planning to have her stay at? As a witch she needs to be surrounded by nature if she is not with a coven but then again, as werewolves we really love our nature as well so that might not be difficult."Why does it feel like the witches are just messing with me? I have not had to fight any of them yet and after everything they did when I was a child it just seems hard to believe that they would just
We leave Elle for the rest of the afternoon to settle into her new house. Meanwhile, on our way back to the pack house to set up for the pack dinner later tonight, I am going to stop by and see my cousin. She seemed so excited to see me earlier that I felt bad not having time to stop by and say hi.As we approach her house, I see her still toiling away in the garden. I chuckle a little bit as I watch her sweat while working in the garden. It looks like hard work doing it this way. Maybe I should offer to help her out some?"Hey, do you need help with your garden? I might know a person that can make it way faster." I offer."You are a life saver. I have been out here for hours and I am not getting anywhere." She says to me.Walking into the garden, I let my connection to the earth flow. As it reaches each plant I coax more life into it while having the weeds relocate somewhere else. I used to think that the weeds all needed to be taken out but
Baking cookies with Scarlett definitely helped me to come back to my reality. I have been all witch for a while now so the simple act of baking cookies with a friend helps to ground me into remembering that I am both witch and werewolf. It feels weird to think that being a witch is starting to feel normal to me now but as I learn more about the craft, the more I feel like I am finding another part of myself. A part that I did not know I was missing in the first place.Scarlett is the perfect person to help center me too. She does not want to rip my clothes off the second that she sees me. It really helps me to feel a little more normal when I am not being mauled by an Alpha every hour. I am more than happy to be attacked by him but sometimes I need a friend that is a female as well. Even if I am finding it harder to relate to her due to her pregnancy.When I make it back to the pack house I have a nice and quiet lunch with Dante before we plan to break the
