The Ice Princess 01 - Wereless
***Beatrice's POV***Mother says being different is a good thing. She always quotes'uniqueness makes you special'.But I don't want to be different. I want to lift a car with my bare hands, run a mile under a second, recognize anyone by their scent before they even come into view, and morph into a soft fur creature with upright ears, sharp teeth, pointed muzzles, and inquiring eyes. Just like everyone else in this community, but instead, on my eighteen birthday, I became a giant egg-like ice cube. As if it wasn't already embarrassing enough to freeze anything and anyone when I can't control my emotions.My Father, Matthew Stevens, was the werewolves Alpha King, and my mother, Naomi Steven's, his Queen Luna. You would think a child born to two strong pure-blooded werewolves would at least have some were-genes in them, right? In my case, science do
The Ice Princess 02- A life for a life
***Beatrice's POV***I should have listened to Liam, but no, myI-make-my-own-choicesside had to defy such a safe and rational option. My arms hug the wooden pillar as the creature pushes Liam past me, crushing him against the fridge's door.-"I told you... Arggh... to go inside the fridge." Liam points the obvious while pushing the human-shaped bird creature away from him, trying to avoid its sharp beak teeth. I was pretty sure birds didn't have teeth. This monster somehow defied it. Bare-bone skull, arms covered with what once might have been blue feathers but now were black and deprived of life, black scally textured long legs with four armed claw toes. Living among supernatural creatures, I thought I had seen everything there is to see, but this beast is a rather repulsive proof I
The Ice Princess 03 - Deal
***Beatrice POV*** Omar's revelation had my head spinning. Not only did he provide me with the key to all my questions, but he also price-tagged it. Liam protected me from harm's way at the cost of his own well-being. Trying everything I could to help him seemed the right thing to do. The emotional attachment I shared with him also prompted me to find the answers. Losing him was not an option. My bare feet carve a dimple path on the freshly soft fallen snow as I make my way up the driveway towards the front door. The sun rises behind the blue-pine tree setting the small wildlife into motion. Dad ordered this two-story house to be built two years before Carl officially took over the alpha position. Four bedrooms, each with their en-suite bathroom, compose the top floor plan, while the first floor has the
The Ice Princess 04 - Blue Box
***Beatrice's POV*** A gush of arctic air enters my car through the half-open driver's window, giving me a shiver. I am currently parked at the private-owned airport's runway, with my daytime running lights on, patiently waiting for the small aircraft to come to a complete stop. After a few minutes, the door opens, and a stairwell is activated. A single person descends and makes their way towards my car. The bright full moon allows me to perceive the figure near my location. The stranger wears a military snow camouflage outfit with a matching head cap, black gloves, and heavy boots. The closer they come, the anxious I get. I turn on the medium lights, lowering the already half-open driver's window as the stranger approaches. -"Are you Beatrice Stevens?" The male voice asks, and I confirm. "You have thirty minutes to r
The Ice Princess 05 - Taken
***Beatrice's POV*** Weakling. Weakling?! If I were an anime character right now, I would have white eyes, gritted teeth, steam coming out of my years, and a cross popping vein on my forehead. The snob in front of me needs some serious manners rectification. Does he think I will obediently bow my head to him? We might have a deal, but no way in hell am I going to be his new well-behaved puppy. Oh, he has it coming, and he doesn't even know it.I am the daughter of two Alphas. I bow to no one. Connor tugs my arm, signaling with his head for me to start moving. I had to take a moment when the douche blonde called me a weakling. Surprisingly, Connor's grip is very gentle. I mean, I am not complaining
The Ice Princess 06 - Sky Dive
***Bea's POV*** It's dark and smells like fresh laundry. Loud whipping noises come from behind the closet door, followed by a feminine wailing in a different language. I hug my teddy bear tighter, gathering enough courage to exit the closet and rescue the person being tortured. My tinny arms wrap around the tall, slender man's leg. -"Bitte, verletze sie nicht. (Please, don't hurt her!)" I beg in a language I don't even know. To the attacker, I'm just a weightless nuisance he quickly pushes off before resuming his assault on the beautiful brunette while sipping his beer. Fruits, vegetables, and cutlery scatter to the floor as I collide with the table. A burning ache forms within my chest, my whole body shaking with emotion. I can't bear the domestic violence
The Ice Princess 07 - Reality Hangover
~~~ Bea’s POV ~~~A bucket of icy cold water jolts me awake. Confused and disoriented, I look down at my arms, abdomen, and then my surroundings. Different ethnic women held their straight military attention pose in front of me. There are three blue-grey bunk beds equally spaced between them, along the wooden cabin wall. I'm still alive. Was the airplane just a dream?-"Wake up, cadet." Connor shouts.Standing at an arm's length is the girl who wielded the raging storm when they kidnaped me. She motions for me to get out of bed and follow. Her hands held an empty bucket, making me deduct she was the one who dumped the cold water all over me. Stopping at the end of the bunker bed, she props herself to attention. I do the same.Connor paces up and down the cabin, speaking in an authoritative tone.-"Remember to be on time. Tardiness won't be tolerated. Your team will be your family from now on." He stops before m
The Ice Princess 08 - Not Today
~~~ Bea's POV ~~~ One. Two. Three. The Pain never came. Connor had somehow made his way over and blocked the attack with the Ice shield. Things were getting out of hand quickly, the infected phoenix constantly pressuring our defenses with fireballs. -"How do we stop him?" I ask, gripping Connor's back. -"By killing it." -"What? It? That's Jacob, your comrade!" -"Not anymore, he isn't. The plague consumes him. There is nothing else we can do besides putting him out of his misery." Connor states. "I'm going to get us close. Use your power to freeze it in place. Once contained, I will pierce its heart." He says, smashing my frozen foot with the handle of his sword. -"Connor, your plan is terrific, but there is one little problem." His gaze locks with mine, questioning what the problem may be. A fireball hits, and we almost lose it all. "Eyes on your opponent." I screech. "My powers are weak." I wasn
