Furiously, I began to speed walk to the library and as I thought, the door was open, meaning he was in there. His scent was stronger than in my workshop and I was fully sure I was not wrong. "Lan–" I got interrupted by a cough. Then I heard some things fall hard to the ground while the cough continued. I knew who it was exactly so I sped off to the location."Lance," he was on the floor, trying to reach for a small jare of one of my tea. "What're you doing?" I panicked, still confused."The tea, I need more, the other one has finished," he managed to say between all the coughing. I picked up the jar that he was reaching out for and I sighed. He did appreciate the tea I had made for him. What an egoistic bastard.Walking up to him, I sat on the floor and opened the jar. I poured a little quantity of the liquid into the led of the jar and pointed it towards him. He tried to sit up as he opened his mouth to collect the medicine but was failing woefully. So I pulled him closer and pla
"Wake up, sleepy head!" I jerked up awake from my sleep. My bed bounced as I did and I held onto my chest to moderate the way my heart beat."She sleeps a lot," a voice which I recognized as Beam's said and I glared at her and Gray who were standing at my door that was open ajar.My room,"How did I get here?" I questioned, scratching my head in confusion. The time with Lance must not have been a dream, it was too good to be true, but at the same time it felt real, way too real to be a dream."You're in your room, where else should you be?" Grey who was standing right beside her."I know that, but I was..." I trailed off, losing my words too. I couldn't possibly tell them their Alpha slept on my legs last night. "Beam, hurry on and eat breakfast, I'll talk to you later okay?" Grey offered and she hurried on without complaining.With no invite, Gray walked right into my room, going to my curtains and spreading them wide open before taking a seat opposite me on the ground."So, did y
After the attack on my pack, it was only necessary for the alpha to call in a meeting. We were expected to gather in the great hall for the meeting. I strolled briskly down the ornate corridors of the castle. The smell of fresh lily flowers filled my nostrils. I scoffed inwardly as I passed those pack members that were tending to the flowers. I wondered why Lance cared about flowers because he didn't strike me as a flower person. I pushed open the large doors to the great hall and everyone's attention turned to me. Lance glared in my general direction and beckoned on me to join him. "You're late," he whispered. "Sorry," I whispered back. Lance forgot all about me and started addressing everyone."Ahem, brothers and sisters we lost a bunch of good soldiers but as usual I commend you all for defending your home. An attack on our home isn't anything new to us and we all know that we are the least favorites amongst vampires and witches. I would give anything to stop these threats we k
Sonia was in the fields and she was surrounded by Beam and three other children. She was sitting on the ground while one of the boys wrapped his tiny arm around her neck. From afar I could hear her explaining why the children needed to stop playing so much and start taking their own personal training seriously. "Beam most especially you," Sonia said. "You play a lot and you know Lance will soon scold me for it. Now then you guys should meet Grey and tell him to give you guys the lesson plan. Beam I'm placing you in charge of the children's pack."Beam looked like the world had just been dropped on her shoulders. She slouched and opened her mouth but one glance from Sonia made her swallow whatever protest she had coming up. We crossed each other and this time around it was I who stuck my tongue out for her and she glared. "It's nice that you're making them go through the troubles to train!" I said, finally arriving at Sonia's back. Sonia got up"Soon they will realize that it's no t
"I got it!" I dashed back to where they were.The boy was still stuck in his form and position and I felt more pity for him when I realized that he would have to suffer a little wolfsbane as a child."What's your name?" I squatted in front of the little child."Sean," he replied, squeaking. "You know what wolfsbane is right?" I asked, not being able to bring myself into giving it to him without his permission. He nodded his head and I smiled."I do," Sean whispered."I'll have to inject it into your vein, along with some other medicine, the pain will only last for a few seconds," I paused to look at him with a reassuring smile.His eyes never left mine as he thought well about his next decision. We could always wait till he got really tired and turned back to human but no one knew how long it was going to take. He was a child, he was full of energy, so it could be hours before he wore off. And with the look of things, he still had no idea on how to control his wolf, meaning he couldn
"Right, use my only weakness against me, it's also sad how you base your entire life on violence," with that, I walked away from him and everyone else.I had gotten to a distance from them, but then a force pulled me back and I found myself pinned again, against a way. Lance's hand was around my neck and gripping even tighter than what Jeff had done."Haven't I warned you about respect, I'll kill you like the worthless being you are," his glare was cold and hard and it bore into my soul."Yeah, kill me because I did the job I'm professional at. As long as I don't get to look or cope with you again. I'd rather be prisoners to the vampires than mates with you," the words game out like venom out of my mouth that I felt its weight when I spoke. It was like I had stung him where it hurt the most, I watched his eyes dilate from cold to shocked and soft. I knew I should not have said it to him and I knew it possibly hurt the oh so mighty Lance. His grip around me loosened and I sucked in a
He needed his tea again. Lance stood up to leave and I didn't object, I was still in shock by his reveal. It made more sense, no one could just be this heartless and hard without a reason. His cough got worse before he could leave my workshop and just when he was at the door, about to leave, he dropped to the ground."Lance," his name rolled out of my lips as I rushed towards him to raise him up."Stay here, I'll go get your drugs," I said dashing off to his room to get it.His room!I was in his room. I had been there once, but I did not exactly get enough views as I did at the moment."I'll get it myself," Lance blurted out and I gasped in shock. He had enough strength to make his way here. I was surprised. "Leave," he added and I frowned."Why, you need help–""I don't need your help,""Well, I'm staying till I'm sure my Alpha and mate is feeling better," I objected and reached for the tea on his drawer. "Hayley,""Oh for once don't be stubborn and settle down Lance," I glared a
He left them and walked right past me, signaling me to follow him. I obeyed, trailing his steps behind him. I didn’t question where we were going but I eventually figured out where he was going, my workshop. “What’s up?” Grey asked immediately we were alone“I figured out a way to cure Lance,” I blurted out.I’ve always wanted to tell him since I figured out a cure. I spent more hours in the library, studying ancient curses and their cures and I finally came across one that would help.“What?!” Grey’s eyes widened at my announcements. “No way,”“Yes way, I was in the library and I came across a book and I saw things about curses and their cure. Most curses don’t even have a physical cure, it takes actions of the victim to break a cure. But I doubt that’s it. But I also came across a leaf, it lifts every curse. Every single curse,” I explained, even shocked by my own words.“What?!” Grey repeated with the same expression.“There is a problem though, you can only find it at the top of
