Where Secrets Hide Chapter Ten
The Old Gods Koin The entire drive was 23 hours; we drove 14 before stopping at a hotel on the side of the highway. Koin felt like a brick in the seat weighing the car down. He tried to imagine it. The horror of what Thalia had been through, still a child, her whole family wiped out in a day. How had she made it so far? How had she survived on her own? He held a new reverence for his lost mate. She must be so strong to have survived all of this, so resilient. He knew that she wouldn't be there..and yet still he hoped. Things seemed easier with everyone helping, looking. His father was still pissed, and with good reason. Koin was meant to take over at 22. Only 4 years now, and he had made such monumental mistakes, he had let his instincts get the better of him. As nice as it was to be out of the car, Koin was antsy. He wanted to be on the road, or better yet in the forest. Azier had been ignoring him, he was beyond angry, in agony. The few times he had let Azier to run he would h

The Big Hole Thalia She spent nearly 500 dollars just to get to Colorado, and she was sure someone had taken her family horde. She searched for nearly a week before she came across something startling. Her family horde...every bit of treasure and dollar had been moved into one massive plot with what remained of other families’ belongings. not stolen. But reburied. some else had to have survived. She couldn't find and clues though and waiting 2 days more did nothing but push her deeper into despair. She made a quick note, anyone worth contacting should understand the runes enough to figure it out. Then she set upon the bigger task. Selling off what she could for cash, which would be easier if she didn't have fake I. D’s and was under 18. She wanted to get away from her old home that held so many cruel memories and thought it easier to sell along the way back to West Virginia, so even if they thought twice about her she would be gone. Her strength was returning slowly, gods and spi

Doing Circles KoinKoin had actually fallen asleep on the car ride, he suspected Connor had something to do with that as he was extra concerned with getting Koins morning coffee. He didn't mind, Connor wouldn't do anything to harm him. It was nice to sleep really, his dream was great. Thalia spread below him in the grass, her brown, red curls splayed out around her magnificent face. That taunting little grin pressing to his jaw every so often. she was saying something, but he couldn't hear her at all. Didn't matter, he crushed his lips to hers every opportunity he saw, hushing her as he lost himself in the way her skin tingled against his. He pulled back a moment to say something, but it was no longer her. Now some..bloody mangled corpse lay bellow him, a man perhaps? his blue eyes were wide with fear and rage and as Koin stood he gave out a feral animal like scream, a sound so terrifying Koin had to cover his ears, bending to his knees. Koin jerked awake with coughing gasp, he was

Chapter Thirteen Koin Koin didn't slow down until the apartment was in view. 1,500 and some odd miles covered in a little more than 6 hours. Koin crept through the yard smelling deeply, but he knew already. she was here. inside. He could see the lights off the lamp he had left for her displaying stars and colors across her walls and ceiling, splashing out onto the porch a bit as if she meant to share it with the world. Connor sat to watch as Koin shifted into human form, going to the small patch of grass Infront of the porch to get the shorts he had hidden under them *Don’t. Don’t let Azier...* Connor nodded shifting back to go around the building a little *I got you dude, he's just excited.* Koin looked back towards her window. He crept up to it slowly to peak in very carefully and breathed a small sigh of relief. She was sleeping. He couldn't help but smile, she looked so small and fragile, so at peace as she slept. His little doll, so full of fight and life. She was amazing. She

It Runs In The Family Thalia What the actual fuck???? Thalia was making her way through the dream scape, throwing her secret message around like fucking confetti when she sensed something so alluring she knew it had to be some kind of gift from the gods. It was warmth, it was like chocolate fucked peanut butter then rolled in Carmel, sex on fire. It was a hum that made her toes curl a bit. So..she ran to it. not walked but...ran. She could hear things more clearly now, she was stepping into somewhere new, and somewhere new had a deep husky voice mumbling something, grunting quiet moans. Oh..my... She would at least get a good peak. It was that fucking psycho that drug her off to a closet!!! This fucking dude? She couldn't help it though. Wow was he. Built. Those baggy clothes he wore did a good job at covering him up. He seemed focused on something, her? she might’ve let it play out, him jerking off to her, if it weren't for what he said next. "I'll protect you and break you a

Playing Games Thalia Fine. If he wanted to play games then she would too. What was any giant, cocky macho man’s weakness? A damsel in distress. She could play innocent and confused just as well. Going off to the bed with him sounded appealing of course. He was hot even if he was a maniac. Still, your enemies closer right? She just needed to take it a step further. Spice things up a little...but..how? In a rush decision she took his hand, afraid a moment her grip was too tight, she shrunk her shoulders down and widened her eyes to look small and scared. He bought it! And even smiled! She looked around at the shadows and held in a giggle, boy was he easy to trick. Seemed like her every little emotion caught his attention. Her afraid of shadows? of the dark? the idea was more than laughable. Still...she had to admit there was something oddly enjoyable about holding his hand. He was warm and strong, his fingers clasping around her entire hand to her wrist, she hadn't really realized

Proper Villain Behavior Thalia Thalia woke up slowly, and from the first second was coaching herself in her own thoughts, trying not to make a bad situation worse. She paid attention to her breathing, then popped one eye open, she was facing...the dresser? She couldn't see him. not yet. Apparently she had squirmed a lot in her sleep though because she now lay across the middle of the bed and could feel the light air coming in from the open window brush over her toes. Open window? who the heck kidnaps someone then leaves the window open. amateurs. She moved slowly, closing her eyes and heaving a tired sigh. She didn't roll into anyone, didn't hear anyone move. Slowly she looked again, fully expecting to find the handsome creep sitting in the corner watching her, but nothing. After a few more minutes of silence, she got up and tip toed to the door to press against it. once she was sure it was empty she popped the door open just a bit. Empty hall and she could see right to the stai

Surprises and Bacon Koin Azier would not shut up. Like a hormonal teen wolf, he raced along the confines of Koins mind trying to push out. She was beautiful, perfect. And wet. Why was she so aroused? And looking at him like that? Every time he thought he was a step closer to understand her she changed. How was he supposed to keep up? He had gotten distracted with taunting Connor who had lost his chance with the twins this morning, but when they had settled again he noticed her staring at all of them with wide far away eyes. He came over to her slowly "Thalia?" he asked concerned. she seemed to jerk at that, but tried to cover it quickly by stretching "Yeah?" She said as casually as she could manage. he had seen it though, and she was being very careful still. he sighed deeply deflating slightly "Are you alright?" He expected her to say something along the lines of yes, but she didn't. instead, she cocked her head to the side, her stormy eyes taking in all of him it seemed "What'

Just to Say It Iyla Ordia was dead. Beyond any repair or hope she was gone before Iyla even opened her eyes. Gone and she had given her last day to protect her and her sister. All of this because of 1 woman that Iyla was sure was perfect. She couldn't comprehend it all. Rehida was the responsible for Thalia’s attack, but why? All of this was rushing through her mind, even as Connor sat her down under a tree to go help Koin and Thalia do whatever they were actually doing. She couldn't bring herself to ask. After everything she and Ordia had suffered together, she was taken away so quickly Iyla hadn't even had time to know it before she was no more. Thalia was on the phone with someone, talking quickly, Iyla watched her, her thoughts still moving backwards to that terrible place. The strange creature told her that she would server the Gods by serving her or him. Then Thalia dropped in, and the creature actually ran to hide. It gave an earie laugh, too much air and not enough feel

What Beauty Can Disguise Koin He and Connor had taken their seats again, watching from a distance as his mother moved around the circle with some kind of herb, smoke wafting from it in heavy plumes as she whispered something. Then Ordia came into view, slowly, studying Rehida. Connor sat up a little "Over here" He whisper yelled to her, but she never looked in their direction. She was very focused on what Rehida was doing, her eyes moving over the circle slowly. A strange sort of energy was beginning to build, even Connor could feel it and they both stood "Hey? What’s going on?" Connor called out, understandably feeling panicked. Rehida stopped moving to look up to her and the two locked eyes. "Traitor. Thief. I know your name now. I know what you've done. What you would like to do." Ordeia told her. Koin stepped forward ready to interfere with whatever battle was taking place when his mother’s face twisted into a sneer, an almost inhuman expression, the corners of her lips pulli

Till The Worldly Grave is DugIylaShe had been dreaming about the ocean, her and Connor along with Thalia and Koin all just enjoying a long beach day, making sandcastles and learning awkwardly, to surf. They had their first kiss. Their first beautiful, magical, perfect kiss. Then it was night. That quickly. She closed her eyes as he kissed her, opened them and she was alone with the stary night sky above her. It was amazing, but she noticed something floating out on the waves, rising with each crest. It appeared to be a body!! She screamed for help, but no one was coming. She couldn’t remember why, but she wouldn't waist time. She ran out into the shallows of the shore and dove into the deeper water to swim out and try to grab onto the body, but she could no longer see it. The waves were getting much bigger now, she couldn't manage it anymore. One wave would lift her then crash her down into the depths and by the time she resurfaced to take in a breath another wave would slam down o

Like Bones Digging Deep Thalia This whole situation was making her skin crawl. Iyla had talked to her weeks before hand about how her venture into the dream scape was her first try, and if Ordia hadn't been there she probably would have been to scared to go for it. Sure, Iyla was a little reckless, but usually her misbehavior was due to curiosity, not an outright want for danger. Why would she have just randomly gone for a walk? How had Rehida known so quickly? She couldn't get her mind to shut down for a long time, no matter how many deep breaths she took, something about what was happening was far more unsettling than their main focus. Iyla had been in the dream state all day, it was hard telling how far away she was, Thalia could only hope that these last few days with Koin and feeling grounded would center her enough for her to also find her way back. Her biggest help was the fact that Thalia had taken walks at least twice a week for the past few years, the dream scape was nea

Respect Your Elders KoinHe couldn't even begin to understand, the things his mother was describing mine as well have been in a completely different language. He still felt Connors panic, and Thalia’s as well. Connor sat on Iylas right side holding her hand while others rushed around, Thalia had scooted to put Ilya’s head in her lap and stroked her hair. All he could do was go get the things his mom requested and watch. He knew the basics, that these women could somehow disconnect their minds and metaphysical bodies to move around freely in the world, he had seen Thalia do it herself, catching him being a pervert the day she was brought here. What he did find odd was that Ordia had left and not returned. Ordia had been like a grandmother for Iyla, and from what he understood had practically finished raising her after the attack on their village. Why would she not want to be here helping. Finally, as dusk settled in Rehida ordered most everyone away, except Thalia, Connor, Koin an

Of Shadows in Dreams Connor School sucked without Iyla now, he never noticed before how much people complained. The adults and the kids all just had negative things to say. There seemed to be no actual escape from it. All day long. I'm tired. I have a headache. I'm bored. My phones dead and I don’t have a charger. I stayed up all night talking to my boyfriend so now I can’t keep my eyes open. It was never ending, and how did he not catch on before he met her? It was like no one could see the good in the day at all. Before going home, he and Koin stopped at a grocery store and he went in to get a little bouquet of sunflowers, some chocolates and a movie. Even if she couldn’t go to school they could be lazy in bed, he even preordered pizza to pick up on the way home. Only when he got home she was out. He snuck in and put the flowers on her bedside table before going to set up the little living room with extra pillows and throw blankets he had brought over from the main house. Ordia

Familiar Noises Thalia She was in some cave, a massive circular space with tunnels all around, at least 6. Someone is there. She can hear them faintly whisper. She can see the light of the fire reflecting off the wet stone, but every time she turns her head to look the flames and the form have moved, just shadow against the light. “Red is the rose which petals wilt, Red are these hands,Red the life blood, Blood of body, Blood of family, Blood these roots like bones digging deep.”The voice sounded familiar, but not at the same time, maybe once beautiful but it was now a sickly tone, a hissing whisper as if the words to bold to take real sound. Then she woke up. She gasped in breaths as reality settled on her, the cool morning air sneaking in the window. Koin was getting dressed by the closet and he smiled seeing her "Good morning." He came over slowly to kiss her head, but at the last moment she tilted her chin up and let his lips meet hers instead of her temple.He chuckled

Freaks at FestivalsIyla She would've settled for having her sister back and living pretty much anywhere but Louisiana. How could life get any better? Not only did she live in a beautiful place with great people, but she had a boyfriend!! He was the best; he was funny and smart and could toss her around like she weighed nothing. He even let her sit on his shoulders to pick cherry’s. Ordia liked it here too, her job was to help run the little day care down the hill while pack members did their usual daily work. If only Thalia was better and could come hang out with her, but she was having fun doing her hair in the mornings, Thalias hair was thick and curly and held so many tones of warm red and brown. She always liked her own hair, but it was kind of boring, always straight, never held a curl, or hairstyles either. School was great too, but Koin was always in a bad mood, and Connor became very serious when they walked through the doors also. She knew why, they were looking for whoev

The Foreboding Koin He couldn't believe his life was actually playing out the way that it was. Everything seemed perfect. Thalia was finally no longer fighting him, maybe she didn't talk constantly and divulge her whole life’s story, but she didn't push him away anymore, didn't try to run away with him. Every day he got to hold her, not just when she was crying. Every day they had breakfast and dinner together. Everyday felt like a dream come true, and while he wished she wasn't hurt, he was oddly enjoying taking care of her. To add to the blissful peace that had come into his life, his brother was more than happy. Ilya was just the girl for him and watching Connor stair at her dreamily made him chuckle often. He was like a goofy love-struck puppy dog. He felt a blossom of hope when Connor told him Iyla had not only seen his wolf but looked forward to hanging out with him in wolf form. He could only dream that Thalia will be so in love with Azier, cause the big guy was all about he
