Alpha's Mage 18. Midnight Blues Turned Onyx Black
[Erica]To say she was feeling awkward and self-conscious would be an understatement because it wasn't every day that one saw the trustee of the University entering the library with a student, a freshman at that. Erica's gaze shifted from one corner to the other. The library was fairly empty at this time save for a few scholars immersed in a sea of books. She felt a little relief when she saw that no one looked at their direction well except the librarian."Good morning K- Mr.Ravenwood," he greeted with a short but courteous bow. The librarian was a short man in his mid-40s probably. His eyes had infinitesimally widened with the slip of his tongue. Erica's eyes did not miss that. 'There is some honorific with which they address him but why do they stop midway? Even Drake had done the same thing,' she couldn't help but ponder, adding another intriguing query to a long list of unsolved ones. She peered at him to see that he was sort of glaring at the poor man. She hurriedly said to him
Alpha's Mage 19. A Tour of the Castle
[Xavier]Ever since he had taken up the role of an Alpha King...no maybe after he had turned 16 and found his wolf, he had longed for this moment - to be able to be in the presence of his mate. Even though she was partly oblivious to this truth, a fact that bound her to him in heart and soul, for this lifetime and next, still, Xavier was content with what he had at the moment. Leikos shared this sentiment as well. He was literally purring. He stole a glance at his beautiful mate as they walked in silence. She was occasionally sipping from the cup as her eyes took in their surroundings. They had come a little farther away from the buildings where the classes were being held and he was about to show her the main castle. He informed Jade about this through a quick text because she was only one privy about the reason behind his inclination towards her. "Gosh! now I have to be your wing woman too?!" his aunt had said with mock exasperation. "Maybe," he had retorted. He had instructed her
Alpha's Mage 20. Echoes of the Past
[Erica]She looked around, stupified. Never has she dreamt of a place where she has never been before. Even though unlike in her dream, the place looked quite well looked after, it was quite bright as well. As she walked warily, her eyes remained alert. She gave a sweeping glance to spot the figure but they were nowhere to be found. She had an odd feeling, just like in her dream, she found a sense of familiarity. As if she knew this part by heart. As if she had already been here in person. It emanated a warm feeling almost like a person would feel coming home after a long time. She felt baffled by this. She decided to see around anyway. The east wing was pretty much like the west. The only difference was that there were fewer rooms which were all closed and most importantly this part had not been redesigned in any way. The place was untouched by modernity, it still held the past grandeur and care of its owner, Erica also discerned that the decors were more feminine, she could tell t
Alpha's Mage 21. Unbelievable Revelation
[Xavier]The information that was divulged by Erica was not what he was expecting. Even Leikos was baffled by this. The cogs in his brain seemed to be working slowly at that moment, processing and reprocessing her confession. Erica was looking at him earnestly, hopefully as if he would have an answer to her uncanny or should he say supernatural experience. He did not know what his face conveyed but gradually Erica lowered her eyes and made a move to pull away and that seemed to jolt Xavier out of his stupor."No!" he said a little too loudly making her squeak. She immediately ceased the action. Xavier felt guilty for scaring his mate, he hurriedly corrected his mistake, "I mean...I did not expect to...hear such a thing." He was anxious. Leikos huffed exasperatedly and had his wolf been a human he would have surely rolled his eyes. For the first time in his life, he felt at a loss for words.Erica frowned, "What were you expecting then?"'Maybe the fact that you are the Sp-''Don't eve
Alpha's Mage 22. A Crucial Decision
[Xavier]"So what you are saying is...she has heardsomeone call her Rosamond and then she hears the same voice calling someone 'Leif'?" Jade inquired again. Xavier grunted an angry "Yes", to her query.He had walked Erica to her hostel which did not go amiss by many students and staff's prying eyes. He went back to his office and called off the meeting to his family's surprise and Ava's annoyance and then called Jade, narrating to her whatever Erica had divulged. Jade, too, seemed thoughtful about it."So do you have any possible theory about this?" Xavier asked impatiently. Erica's blank stare and slumped shoulders were still etched in his brain, she looked like she had given up on something. As if him not believing her completely had made her believe that she might be delusional and Xavier loathed himself for it. Leikos was not comfortable with this situation as well."Look...I think I have one.
Alpha's Mage 23. Supernatural Beings
[Erica]Say what? she almost thought that her brain had shut down. Not humans? She frowned, "What?" she was sure that she heard it wrong, this couldn't be a prank because why would Xavier prank her? Right? Right.Xavier blinked once before repeating, this time, a tad bit slower, "We are not. Humans".Erica's brows rose, might have been disappeared in her hairline if that was possible. She looked at Drake for an explanation. Her brother nodded, "Well, what he is saying is the truth." He sounded uncertain. Erica was about to open her mouth and demand for further explanation than one line statements when she heard Jade tsk in irritation, "You guys are so lame at explanation. Honestly!" Erica nodded subconsciously because really they were doing the shittiest job of the century.Jade sighed and began, "Look, Erica. What they mean is that in this world, there are not only humans that exist, there are...what humans call 'mythical creatures' or 'supernatural beings' such as werewolves, vampir
Alpha's Mage 24. Mates and Miscommunication
[Erica]"I am your what?" she asked, bewildered. Mates? the only meaning of the word 'mate' that she was acquainted with was when people addressed each other jovially. "Mates are supposed to be our soulmate who is just made for us," Jade clarified before either of the two men could speak. She was done with them fumbling and flailing with half-baked explanations. Erica was thankful to her for her prompt replies."I am his...what?" she repeated dumbly. Drake made an unhappy sound in his throat before settling back into the chair. She turned to him and glowered at him. Here she was, being told things that she believed existed only in fairytales and her brother was already getting impatient."I think...we should let Xavier take from here?" Jade suggested quite uncertainly. Erica's eyes flickered to the said man, she saw his jaw clench. He acquiesced eventually, "Yes, I shall explain everything to her."Jade sprung up from her seat and tugged Drake's hand who seemed a little reluctant to l
Alpha's Mage 25. Myriad of Emotions
[Erica]You being my mate was not something I had hoped for...The sentence had been repeating in her mind in a loop, like a broken and unwanted record. She sniffled drawing up her knees closer to her chest and resting her chin on them. Her room was shrouded in darkness. She was immensely relieved when she came back to an empty apartment because had either Josh or Lana been present, they would have bombarded her with questions. What a chaotic day. First her breakdown after hearing voices and now learning something equally bewildering and shocking. Her phone trilled once again, maybe for the 10th time but she could care less. At the back of her mind, she knew it might be from her parents or Drake but she could not bring herself to receive the calls. Never had she imagined that she would hear something like this. How long were her family planning to hide the secret? Would they have sent her away once she was old enough to live on her own? She was a...human after all. A humourless laug
