“Did you want to go over anything before Jess comes home?” I asked Cole as I finished putting the shopping away. I pulled out the ingredients for a sandwich and did us some lunch while he thought over his answer.
“No, we'll leave it for a few days. You have enough to be thinking over.” He smiled placing a hand on my shoulder and squeezi

Tuesday morning, I woke with a slight groan, over heated and aching from sleeping in a strange position and I twisted and almost fell off the sofa, only the strong arms wrapped around my waist kept me from face planting the carpet.“You do know you have a perfectly good bed in your room, right?” Jess’s voice sounded and I lifted my head to see her sat at the breakfast bar looking smug as she took in the sight of us while eating a bowl of cereal.I groaned again leaning back into the warm body of Cole.

Elsie smiled into her cup, and I hid behind mine as I waited for her reaction. “I have to admit I did consider this a possibility after the weekend. The bond is hard to ignore at the best of times but when you are practically living with the person, I expect it is harder still. Warriors are trained to ignore that of course and I expected that it wouldn’t have been an issue had you been a mean or judgemental person, but you are beautiful inside an out. Well, I can’t say I disapprove. I had to wait until Jonah finished his assignment at the age of thirty-four before we could date. I’m glad that you and Cole won’t face the same difficulty.” She smiled and I relaxed like a weight had been lifted a

We headed into the closest town and settled on a small buffet restaurant for lunch. Elsie was a little confused by the long serving station filled with a variety of foods until Cole filled her in. Buffet restaurants were a fairly new trend and Elsie hadn't been to a human town for quite a while.“This is fantastic.” Elsie stated once we were all sat down with a big plate of food each. “It seems like so many things change every time I leave the city.” She stated digging into her meal.“Things do change quickly around here.

The sunlight through the windows cast shadows on the floor and I danced across the hardwood, making a game of avoiding the shadows. My dress floated around my legs as I jumped over a big shadow, the material tickling me, and I laughed.“Alexi.” My mum called from down the hall, and I turned to leave the living room dancing the whole time, but I froze when I faced the hallway. The man was young blonde and dressed all in black. I smiled at him, and he held his finger up to his lips, so I giggled, maybe he was playing a game too.

“What do you mean your Mum was murdered?” Cole asked holding me before him, his hands on my shoulders and a frown of concern on his face as he watched me.I swallowed hard and dried my eyes off, willing the tears to stop as I tried to formulate an answer. “Peter was wrong. It was never an accident. My mum was murdered in our home.”“How is that even possible.” He muttered but the words didn’t quiet register as I continued talking, now the words were comi

“We should stop at a market on the way and get some supplies.” I commented off hand to Cole as he shoved clothes into his own bag. I made a mental note as I watched him to do some laundry when we got to the city, with everything that had happened this week I had barely found the time to shower, never mind housework.“Okay. What time did you say you had to be at the council building for?”“Millicent said they are starting the meeting at eleven. They are ordering lunch in so I expect we will be there for a while.” I stated although this wasn't news. I had known since last weekend that this meeting would be a long one, there was so much that needed to be done. I was just thankful that Millicent had called to fill me in on everything fore hand, at least we wouldn't have to spend the first hour catching me up.I climbed into the passenger seat of Cole's car and thought back over my conversation with Mill

Music sounded through the car’s speakers as I yawned, it was way too early to be awake, Kate sat in the passenger seat, swaying happily and singing off key, her hair swung loose around her shoulders and the smile on her face was infectious as she laughed at Andrews grimace.It was well known in our small town that Kate Daniels couldn’t carry a tune to save her life, but no one would ever tell her to stop, not once they realised just how happy it made her. She was the kind of woman that sang in the shower, loud enough that the neighbours could hear it, and it truly was an awful noise, but it roused happy memories of my childhood.Kate’s singing had been one of the few things that made me smile after my parents passed away and I wound up in the foster system. I gazed out of the window, as the thought dragged me into memories of a darker time in my life.Flames and heat, a scream of pain and someone yelling. An old man

It took way too long for me to come back to reality and calm myself down. The knock on my bedroom door had me clearing my throat.“You okay Lexi?” The voice was concerned and for a moment I hated myself for putting her through this, at least it wasn’t every night anymore.“I’m okay Jess. I’m sorry, try and get back to sleep.” I suggested trying to hide the tears in my voice to no avail, she knew me too well. The door creaked open, and the tiny blonde stepped into the room, appraising me before crawling onto the bed beside me and resting her head on my shoulder.“The car?” She asked and I nodded not sure how to voice that yet again I had watched my parents die in a ball of fire.“They don’t seem to be lasting as long as they used to, and they are getting father apart.” She stated, her voice calm and reassuring, and I sighed, she was right, and I had to try a

Monday morning came far too quickly for my liking. After a long drive home the night before, and spending too long concocting stories to tell Jess I felt drained again, I still had a head full of all things Primogentius. The excitement I had felt over finding my royal ability faded quickly on the drive home. I spent almost the entire trip reading through one of the books Peter gave me about the first war.I wasn't a history buff but I knew enough about human history to know that war was one of the worst things a country could face, only I had never really stopped to consider the details. Sitting in the comfort and safety of Cole's car and reading about death and destruction had my body shivering with fear. The book spared no details. Whole chapters were devoted to recounting particular battles listing the deaths and the destruction that occurred and I swallowed hard as I considered that soon we would be going through all of that again.I had

“Where are we going?” I asked. Once the building outside the window registered in my head.“I thought we could get some lunch at the café in the town.” He answered and I smiled in appreciation. I was starving now.“Sounds good to me.” I nodded.The café wasn't any different from those I had visited in the human world. With booths lining the right-hand edge of the room and tables and chairs placed strategically around the room. It was decorated with pastel blues and gr
