WELCOME
She looked around the crowd and loved the admiration she saw in their eyes.King walked up to her with reverence in his eyes. “Wow...that’s the most spectacular thing I have ever seen. That was amazing. You’ve really come into your powers as a witch.”“Yes, I have.”Emilia lacked the ability to say more than that, given the way she was feeling. She struggled to stay on her feet, refusing to collapse in front of the whole town. King looked offended by her curt response but she couldn’t care at the moment.She watched patiently as the crowd dispersed, standing her ground with all her will. King waited with her, glancing up at the disappearing purple dome.“Finally,” Emilia gasped as the last group of townsfolk left.Kingn turned to ask her what she had said, only in time to see her collapse in a heap, unconscious before her body struck the concrete.King watched Emilia pull into the driveway in her tiny suburban rental from the massive window in his office. The curtains were slightly o

All his friends were already gathered together, and he was the last one to arrive. They sat at a table beside a window, chatting softly, all turning when he entered the bar.There were only a few other occupied tables in the room, and King breathed an air of relief. He didn’t feel particularly comfortable talking about how he was feeling in a room full of people.He made his way to his friends and settled into the only available seat at the table. “I’m sorry, guys. Had a little delay with…work. What did I miss?”They waved off his apology and mumbled greetings to him in response. All except Jay, who grunted and sipped beer from the bottle.“Well, let’s see…” Blake replied, rubbing his jaw pensively in mock consideration. “Not much really. To be honest, there’s not really been a lot going on, so you can see we’ve been collectively enjoying a quiet drink.”Articus smirked and shook his head. Callahan laughed, earning him a frown from Fannar. King looked from face to face, taking in the

“King?” Articus called.King blinked twice, returning to the present. “I’m sorry. Yes, I appreciate the help. I’ll let you all know how the situation develops. For now, no one has been hurt yet and we have…measures in place to keep everyone safe.”“Well, that’s settled,” Articus said. “Tell us though, how are things going with your mate?”“Mate?” Blake raised a brow. “Interesting. I didn’t expect her to ever come back. Now that she has, though, isn’t that a good thing?”“I wish.” king bit the words. “She doesn’t want anything to do with me, and she has made that pretty clear.”“I mean…you did kind of…reject her. Didn’t you?” Callahan piped up. “I mean, even we didn’t know that you had found a mate. You really kept it a big secret. It was only after she skipped town and we saw your pain that we knew how much you cared for her.”There were general murmurs of agreement in response to Callahan. While King was happy that Emilia had been brought up, he couldn’t help feeling like none of his

The way she saw it, the only way out for her was to complete her mission, and then leave Moonwood as soon as it was done. This was why she worked on her investigation daily, pursuing leads wherever she could.She often went around town, tapping into the memories of the town itself, seeking a glimpse of her prey. She sat on park benches, touched streetlamps, buildings, and everything that could give her a clue of what she was looking for.The exercise was admittedly a colossal waste of time. Whatever memories she got from the town were of things happening within the town. That knowledge was useless to her, at best. The thing she sought tormented the woods.Irrespective of that, it was a better alternative than being in King’s house. She occupied herself with activities to avoid the damn man. Still, she could always feel him watching her with his golden, searching eyes.She parked in front of a convenience store. She hadn’t really planned on going there, but her mind had worked on its o
Read moreDISTURBANCE
It occurred to her that the warning could mean that there had been a breach. She dismissed the idea of that happening at first, then thought more carefully about it.What if she had made a mistake? Was her shield really as strong as she hoped? What if the thing had just ripped through her barrier?How strong is this thing?The fact that she didn’t have an answer to her last question terrified her more than anything.And then again, the barrier could have trapped the thing. The chances of that happening were slim, but Emilia felt hope rising in her heart. She moved faster, and King kept up with her excellently. He didn’t ask her questions, he only followed after, trusting her to lead the way.Just as Emilia had feared, the ward had been tampered with. Worse, it had been moved? Huh. Who could have moved it? As she searched for the ward, she realized something.The ward had not been tampered with from the outside. The disturbance had come because someone had stepped out of the shield. Emil

“I…I didn’t see anything, Alpha King. It all happened so fast. I didn’t even hear or sense anything. One moment, I was racing through the woods. The next moment, I felt a dark presence against me, faster than I could blink. I’m so scared, Alpha King. What was that?”King listened quietly, watching the boy with intense eyes. The boy trembled violently as tears poured out of his eyes.King was livid, even more so than before. They had been flouting his orders and taking his warnings for granted.What could Emilia possibly stand to gain by lying about an existential threat? And if they thought she was lying, did they think the same thing about him as well?He wondered about the people the boy had spoken of. How widespread was the contempt for the order to avoid the forest? What could he do to put an end to such conversations within the pack?He had been presented with a whole set of problems, starting with the young boy fighting for his life.All they had to do was follow instructions, da
Read morePHYSICAL VARIETY
King was about to tear into the boy, but then he saw it. The boy’s pain was not of a physical variety. Whatever he had witnessed had completely shell-shocked him, leaving him with mental scars deeper than the one on his stomach.“Right then.” He scooped up the boy as gently as his frayed patience could handle, and placed him over his shoulder. Next, he scooped Emilia into his arms, and then rocked to his feet.As he ran out of the woods with the two people, he glanced around for the young boy’s dog. He didn’t need to. He knew exactly what fate awaited the sorry animal.Rowan felt relief as he got back into safer territory. He set the boy down and then strapped Juniper into the passenger seat. He then strapped the young boy in as well. He jumped into the car and raced off into town, glancing at Juniper every five seconds.“What exactly happened to her?” the pack healer asked, shining a small light into both Emilia’s eyes.King had sped through the town like a lunatic, and had brought E

“I feel…weird. My head’s a bit fuzzy, but I’m fine, I think. Can you tell me what happened?”“You don’t remember anything?” King asked softly.“Not exactly, sorry.”“Well, you passed out again. We went into the forest to investigate the ward that had been tampered with, and…”And then her memories came rushing back with full force. The recollection slammed into her with unexpected strength, and she felt like she had just been rudely thrown into a cold pool of water.She remembered feeling the ward trigger and rushing into the forest with King. She had really hoped to find a clue about their target, but instead all they’d found was the young boy who had been hurt and left for dead.Emilia remembered how that had felt. The boy had lost a lot of blood and she was going to lose him. She had felt it. She had checked her reserves and had known that she did not have enough to bring the boy back.And yet, she had managed to stitch him back together. She had checked to make sure she wasn’t tra

“Hey…calm down. Okay? Calm down.” King covered Emilia’s hand in both of his and scuttled closer to her on the bed. “Listen to me, Emilia. I haven’t been able to tell you my true feelings. I’ve been trying to find the best time to speak with you, but I realize now that there’s not going to be a better time than right now.“The truth is that I am sorry for what I did to you. I never should have rejected you the way I did. By doing so, I called you a liar and led people to think that you were just being crazy. There’s no excuse for what I did, and no justification either.“I did it because I was scared. Scared of what people thought. Worried about what they would say if they found out about what we had. Worried about what my friends would think of me. But I was a fool to care about all those things.“I was a fool, because from the first time I saw you, I knew you were my mate. From the first time we were together, I heard my wolf howl for joy all through the night. What we shared, it’s t

It was only after Emilia got quiet that she realized she had been yelling loudly. The look on King’s face was that of pain and hurt, but Emilia didn’t care. She knew that she had been harsh and maybe unfair to him. While he had made mistakes, he wasn’t a bad person. She wasn’t even frustrated with him.Unfortunately, she needed to let it all out, or she would go mad. And he was the one who was here, so she took it out on him. She turned him into the receiving end of all the unfair things life had thrown at her.King had taken it with equanimity, but Juniper could see that she had broken something in him. She didn’t care. She suddenly felt the overwhelming urge to be alone. She made to get out of the bed, but Rowan stopped her, placing a hand gently on her arm.“No. Stay. You should rest a little bit more. I’ll go instead.” He looked at her with sad eyes and without saying another word, he got up and left the room, shutting the door silently behind him.King watched the door and felt a
