MAGDALINE THE ORACLE ELDER

STORM“I have been waiting for you.”“Who are you?”“Magdaline.”“wha- what do you mean you have been waiting for me? is this your place?”“you don’t seem well. Perhaps we can talk more inside, come.”The woman walks past me and opens the door, leaving it open as she gets in and I am stranded at the threshold, wondering if I would be nuts if I truly got in. I don’t know this strange woman, what if she is an enemy?”“I assure you I am not your enemy, storm. Now get inside and lie down on the couch. We need to get that awful thing around you that’s blocking your healing.”I swallow hard and I step inside, the door closing behind me. she can read minds, I wonder what else she can do if I dare argue with her. So I lie on the couch, my eyes roving around the place. It's warm, has lots of natural light, and is very spacious.“you have a beautiful place,” I say as I lie there, my breathing settling and my body feeling grateful I am lying down.“mmh. So, you took quite some time getting here.

YOU BRING ME TO MY KNEES WITH YOUR KNIFE IN MY HEART, AND YET ALL I SEE IS YOU

COLE I was calling on her. My hand was reaching out for hers but I couldn’t find hers … her fingers weren’t touching mine. she wasn’t here with me, she wasn’t near me and that was killing me. Literally. I could feel my brother's worries. I could feel their despair and I could feel the way they were scared for the first time in our lives. They didn’t have to, I knew that she didn’t want us to be, she didn’t mean to make us this way. That’s why when I felt the wall, the barrier that was keeping me away from her fall away, I exhaled. That’s when I felt like I could breathe again, but I still didn’t have the energy to tell the boys that she was free, that we could talk to her. I could feel her energy flow to me, like a balm to my tight muscles, like a breath of fresh air, cool and so nice I signed. Kyle touched my sweaty hot skin and then told the boys that I was cooling down. They had stopped to try to find a way to find her. I could hear all they said, I just didn’t have the ener

A GLIMPSE OF THE FUTURE

STORM“you have been through a lot, you should rest.”I can feel my own body begging me to sleep. I haven’t slept well, I don’t think I have rested, and right now I am on the brink of falling apart here on this couch.“I prepared a room for you, I will show you,” Magdaline starts to walk and I I don’t move from the couch.Truth is, it's all coming to me now. I have killed Xaver, I am no longer running, looking over my shoulder and I have buried all the monsters from the past.My past.‘I don’t think I will sleep even if I go there,” I admit quietly.She shuffles back to the seat near me and sits down.“you have been through a lot,” she repeats and I nod, smiling sadly.“you see everything, I am sure you have a recollection of my past week or so. I can't exactly sleep, because … the nightmares keep getting to me,” I shrug.“you did what you have wanted to do after all these years.”At the cost of my heart, I didn’t know it was capable of anything but pumping blood in my veins.“And yet

AN ALPHA HE WAS

STORM“is there anything else that I don't know that might have …”I can't even bring myself to speak. It would be … useless because I can't change the past.“Nothing, only about the relationship you had with your mother. I guess that’s why you were quick to help her even as she used you to gain what she wanted.”I jump from the couch. “she didn’t use me! She cared about me and our reconnection, I don’t know why everyone keeps saying that!”Magdaline sips her tea calmly like I am not throwing a fit in the middle of her living room.“I can't spring everything on you, you are fragile your mind is weak right now. you are sleep deprived and you are heartbroken. We will talk more later.”“I don’t- I am not good with authoritarian figures. So don’t try to tell me what to do.”“your attitude reminds me of your father. You are like him in many ways you don’t realize.”That shuts me up and I sit down. Ever since my father died, it was like the memory of him, his existence died along with him,

NO ONE KEEPS THEIR PROMISE TO ME

LANDON “Do you know where we are going?”Forest surrounds us and there is no road to mark that where we are following Cole’s direction that there is direction.“I feel her like a thread tugging me to go this way. I think we should go on,” he says and I nod, jaw clenched.I am a nervous wreck. I don’t know what to expect. I know she is okay, as Cole seems to be doing so much better and he says that she is okay as well.“Hey, you okay?” Dean squeezes my shoulder and I look up at him. Kyle is driving as Cole tells him where to turn.“no,” o admit as I look at my brother. “we don’t know if she wants to see us, but we are finding her. we do know if she wants us to save her, which is what we are going to do.”“what about you? how do you feel knowing that you will be seeing her, possibly today?” he asks me and I sigh, looking at my palms.“I have no idea. I have been strung on the fact that I thought she had died, which made me feel like I was being robbed of my very breathe,” I say as I sh

LET ME IN

STORMI get back from picking the apples and immediately I get inside the cabin, magadaline raises her head from where she is seated.“they are here.”“who is?” I ask as I close the door using my hip and start walking toward the kitchen to wash the apples.“they boys. They are here.”The basket falls from my hands, apples rolling and scattering all over the floor in soft thuds.“What?” it’s meek and my throat is tight.“I thought you saw them, they were spying on you as you picked the apples.”My knees buckle and I have to hold a chair to keep upright. I need to sit, but I don’t think I can be still. My whole body feels like it's coming alive, like a reboot, only it's filled with butterflies in my stomach and my heart is beating like crazy.“I thought you said they wouldn’t be here for days,” I whisper as I try to calm my racing heart but I am not succeeding. The more I think that they are here, the more I seem to be panicking.“wait, they spied on me?” I ask her as I wipe my brow won

MY LOVE, TAKE MY BREATHE AWAY

STORMI lean on the wall, my heart racing wildly in my chest. I feel their footsteps as they get in, and Magdalene as she tells them to get in and sit.My eyes flitter closed as I feel their closeness … they are so close to me … I can almost feel their warmth….“Open your eyes love.”If you don’t faint right now, you never will.His breath fans my face, his body is so close to mine, I do want to open my eyes, because of how much I am scared right now.The last time we talked, he said he would hurt me if I did something to his family. And right now, I am imagining he is inches from me at this moment. I don't want to look at him as he hurts me. I can never survive that.My heart could never.“Open your eyes little stormy, look at me.”His voice is quiet, a beg, I can feel the hurt and the vulnerability in his voice.My heart slows down as I open my eyes, head down and I see his boots first. Black boots, blue jeans. I dare raise my eyes a little and follow the outline of the legs and I s

THE KIND OF LOVING THAT MAKES MY HEART ACHE

STORMHe is lying there, asleep or passed out, I don’t know.All I know is that his breathing is labored and his eyes are moving behind his closed eyelids.“Cole,” I whisper as I run my palm around his cheek and I feel a tear stream down my cheek.“I will be with Magdaline,” Dean tells me grumpily as he leaves.A choked sob escapes my lips and I shut my eyes, holding Coles's limp hand to my mouth and lying on his chest.This is all bad. This isn’t how I wanted our reunion to go.Cole is sick, Dean seems like he wants to say something to me but he is holding himself back. He can't meet my eyes. Kyle is angry at me, or himself and he has left me as soon as he has kissed me. I haven’t seen Landon and that’s hurting me even more than I realize.I should be grateful they are here, to begin with. I should be happy or at least feel like they are not killing me but goddamit am I hurt.My heart feels like it's carving itself out. it's hard to breathe around them.Cole is lying here, unconsciou

LANDONI could feel her.I have gone weeks without feeling her and now I am, it feels like I can finally breathe again.

I didn't know how I can finally feel it all like I am channeling her, but I am.I hear Kyle and Dean shouting back at the compound and so I walk to them.Dean’s hand is bleeding and Kyle looks like he is about to bolt in the cabin with the way he is staring at it.“she thinks we are going to kill her, torture her, or I don’t know! Some fucked up shit!” Dean says as he waves his hand and I know that’s what this is about.My heart breaks before I steel myself clearing my voice. I don't want her to get the best of me, I do want her to penetrate my armor but goddammit, it's hard not to.She already thinks we are here for her, but not to get her, be with her … to do something awful to her.That’s why I don't stop myself as I start wal
