(Theia’s POV)
I looked down at the ring in the velvet box. It was beautiful. It was made up of a central stone that was a pale pink and then clear stones surrounding it. It glittered in the moonlight. Everything about this was perfect, like it was something in a book or a movie. Dominic smiled up at me with all the love in his eyes. I believed every word he said when he said I was the love of his life. The setting was amazing, a private island on a lake with the moon shining down. It was absolutely perfect. Everything a girl could ask for. Everything I ever dreamed of.
“No,” I said quietly. I watched Dominic’s face fall and felt my heart break. He looked down at the ground, and then back up at me, confusion clear on his face.
“What?” he asked, and I shook my head. I sat down on the ground and he moved to sit next to me. I felt tears running down my face.
“Baby,” Domi
(Theia’s POV)Breakfast was quick and after an even quicker shower, we were ready to set off. Liam suggested taking one larger seven seater car and Dominic agreed. One of the warriors drove while Liam claimed shotgun. I sat in the middle bank between Dominic and Leah and the other warrior sat in the rear bank. I’d asked why we needed two warriors with us, which earned me an eye roll from Liam. Leah, after glaring at Liam, explained that it was standard for two warriors to flank the Alpha on any long trips, even friendly ones. She explained that as the Alpha of the largest southern pack Dominic was considered a high level target, and as his mate, so was I. I really didn’t like the sound of being considered a target but Leah assured me that she would protect me, and so would Dominic and the warriors. I easily picked up on her, leaving Liam out of that equation.Dominic told me that the journey was around six hours
(Dominic’s POV)I was standing with Liam and the guards, not really listening to what they were talking about, when I spotted Theia and Leah walking back towards the car. They seemed deep in conversation themselves, and it made me smile that they had become such good friends. I was initially so annoyed with Leah for inserting herself into Theia’s life after I had specifically told her not to. But I am grateful that she did now. I would never have known about that bloody sorcerer Mark sniffing around, and I wouldn’t have been able to save Theia from him. Liam had said that I was too lenient on Leah for going against a direct order. He even suggested that her being my Gamma wasn’t such a good idea. But the blood bond is such a valuable asset in a pack that I couldn’t imagine anyone, other than my little sister being my Gamma.“Alpha,” I heard the annoyed tone in Liam’s voice and turned my attention back to him. I looked over and s
(Dominic’s POV)True to Jake’s word, food arrived within the next thirty minutes. It was an arrangement of cold cuts and breads and cheeses, with some fruit selections. There was a note telling us that if we wanted anything else, to ring down to the kitchen.I used the food as an excuse to finally get Theia to sit down on the bed. She had explored the room, the adjoining bathroom, and all of the cupboard spaces over and over. I joked that maybe she was looking for a secret door or something, which had got her all excited and she went hunting for secret doors. I couldn’t help smiling at her excitement. It really was the happiest I had seen her. There was something about this place that really seemed to give her that extra buzz.Once we had eaten something, I pulled her into my arms, partly to stop her jumping up and exploring again, and partly because the constant need to touch her, to have her close grew st
I wanted to leave a quick note about the updates of this book. The Alpha's Human Seer is one of the firsts books in a large universe called The Dark Essence. It will be spread across five initial series and they all intertwine in some ways. While writing this book I have realised that part of this book will reveal spoilers for the other book I am writing right now (Alpha Hybrid Queen). At present, this book is two months ahead in the timeline to that book.My concern, and main reason for slowing down on updates is the spoilers. The Dark Moon pack meantioned in this book is the main pack in Alpha Hybrid Queen. In hindsight I should have strated that book first. So my plan going forward is to update this book once a week. This should give me time to get working on Alpha Hybrid Queen (which is a longer book) and get it finished enough in time for this book to be back on daily updates starting April. I promise this book will be finished (hoping b
(Theia’s POV)I sat in the cold hard chair, my head on my arms, which were handcuffed to the table. I didn’t know how long I had been sitting here, but the room felt cold and dank and it had long since seeped into my bones. I felt exhausted, cold, and hungry. My head was pounding and the stench from the bucket of vomit next to me was only making my nausea so much worse.Over the past several hours, I had received visits from different stern looking people. Some asking questions, and the same questions. What type of supernatural was I? Who did I work for? What was my plan? How did I get my information? I answered them all the same. I’m a human. I don’t work for anyone. I don’t have a plan. And I really don’t know how the visions or dreams work.Then some came in and prodded and poked at me. They took blood and saliva samples as well as other uncomfortable examinations. I cried until I didn’t h
(Theia’s POV)I huddled in the corner of the cement cell. My hands and feet were both chained tightly to the wall. There was a mix of dried and fresh blood from the chains that were digging into my wrists and ankles, and the slightest movement stung. My head was pounding, my body hurt everywhere, and I felt exhausted. I had no idea how long I had been here or when the last time I had eaten was. There was a thin sorry excuse for a mattress on one side that looked like it had been there since the dawn of time, and a hole in the floor, which was a substitute for a toilet. My face was puffy from the crying and I felt emotionally, mentally and physically drained.The door to the cell opened, and I saw two people walk in. I couldn’t see detail as the light was behind them, so they were just shadows.
(Theia’s POV) “Nine days?” I exclaimed. I looked around at Dominic, hoping that he would correct the doctor. But the look in his eyes told me that wasn’t going to happen. I looked down at the tubes in my hands and then back at the doctor. I saw that she had followed my gaze. “The tubes have been nourishment while you were unconscious, and a sedative and pain relief to help,” she said, “I am happy to remove some of them, but I would like to keep you on the pain relief, at least for the next twelve hours.” I nodded as she spoke. I suddenly felt numb. I had never had a seizure of this size before, and I couldn’t understand why I would have one now. I felt as Dominic squeezed my hand and I tried to force a smile on my face when I looked up at him. I knew that he knew that it was fake, but he took it anyway and
(Theia’s POV)I stared at the doctor in disbelief. Here I was thinking that this type of thing didn’t happen, but the doctor was saying that I was some super rare supernatural type. I shook my head and closed my eyes.“No,” I said, “You must be mistaken. I’m human, I’m not supernatural.”“Yes, Miss Adams, you’re correct when you say that you are human,” the doctor said, and I looked back at her.“How can I be human and an oracle?” I asked, “I thought you said they were supernaturals.”“Well, that’s the thing about the oracles. They can be of any species,” she answered, “human or supernatural. Although
