Amaya I would feel out of place and think I was going crazy or thinking too deeply. I don't have someone to lean on and say that to if I told my parents then they would feel that they did something wrong when it was just me or if I told my friends they would say ‘i’m sorry I didn't want them to be sorry I wanted to feel like it was okay to have these feelings. Once I woke up the next morning all I could think about were the books I had read about the kingdom. How the king and queen were rulers of their kind and when they found out they were mates they combined the shifters and the witches so they could work together not against each other, those were my parents. My parents brought them together as they left me with people who weren’t my birth parents. There was a knock on the door but just by the smell and aura coming from the person I knew who it was. I didn’t say anything and he walked through the door. I was swaddled up in my blanket. “Amaya?” he asked coming to stan
Jasper I was slowly but surely getting a plan going. It may be risky but what is life without a little risk? And I would always risk for AmayaWhen I called the royal palace I spoke to the royal governor whom I told to get the prince and princesses here because I have something they may want to see. He said that he would see what he can do. I got a phone call telling me that their plane would be landing in an hour. I plan to show them Amaya’s power. The alpha queen is a powerful witch, the prince is a shifter, and his sisters are witches. If they see Amaya there should be no doubt that she is their blood, then they can see the pack as Amaya and Chole try to win them over. When I got to the training grounds behind the palace, I did pack training earlier so I could train with Amaya alone. I dropped my duffle bag on the ground and took off my shirt and rolled my shoulders back to get a kink out, I turned to see Amaya walking towards me. She wore a black sports bra and a pair o
Amaya I didn’t want to see these people yet. It was too soon, I had just been told that my parents weren’t my parents and now I was standing in front of the kids that they chose to keep. “Pensez-vous que c'est vrai?” the princess asked the prince still looking at me. I had taken french from middle to high school, when I spoke it was bad but I could still understand. She had asked her brother if he thought this was true. “Je ne sais pas, mais elle ressemble à papa” the prince answered, looking at me closer. He responded saying I looked like their father. Did they not know about me? “Where are you from?” the prince asked walking toward me, I could feel his aura that was strong but not enough to make me feel scared. We looked each other in the eye, both unwilling to back down. “Greenfield, Nebraska,” I said, still looking him in his eyes. His eyes widened as he slowly backed away. “How old are you?” he asked in a hushed tone almost like a whisper. “I just turned eighteen” I answer
Jasper After Amaya left and then went back to the palace, I went to the room where I left the prince and the princess. I wanted to stay with Amaya. I didn't want her to be in her head, mainly because tomorrow will be the day she met the pack. I entered the room stopping them in the middle of a conversation, they turned to look at me. “Where is she? Is she okay?” Erica asked, stepping closer to me. “I can’t tell, she just wants to be alone,” I told them “You are welcome to stay here in the palace as long as you are here” As much as I knew they could help Amaya, it was more than clear she didn’t want to talk to anyone right now and I wanted her to be calm for tomorrow. “Thank you, we appreciate that” I nodded as I left the room and told a worker to show them to a room. I needed to find some way to put my mind to rest. I walked to the sanctuary where the statues of our goddess stood. As a kid, it would bring me comfort to know she was not only looking out for us but had set up our
Amaya The next morning when I woke up to my body feeling heavy, after last night my mind and body couldn’t operate the way I needed them to. The last thing I wanted to do today was meet the pack but I had to push through it if I wanted them to like me. I climbed out of bed with the biggest headache, I sat on the edge of my bed with my eyes closed waiting for my head to stop spinning. As I sat there I could hear someone walk through the door of my room. I didn’t want to open my eyes but their smell and aura were familiar. “Are you okay?” Amelia asked. I opened my eyes to see her standing at the foot of the bed. “Yeah, just tired,” I said slowly standing up. “Well come on, we have a lot to do in a little time. And I have a surprise for you!” she said swaying side to side and smiling, curious by this. “What is it?” I asked in the hope of getting a hint. “Get ready and you’ll see,” she said, turning around and leaving. I walked to the closet to see if there was something that I co
Jasper I knew telling Amaya what my father did would cause more problems in the future, but it wasn’t just my life that was being affected negatively. Amaya turned a few months ago and found out that she had powers and was royalty. I walked with her to different games and had her try some of our pack’s food, it hadn’t been that different from the food they make in the human dimension. As we were talking, John and another senior member came up to Amaya and me. “Ah, Jasper, I am so happy to see you having a good time.” he said in a cheerful tone.” “Yes, me too,” I said, trying to be professional. He looked over to Amaya who was standing next to me then back at me as if asking me to introduce him. “ Amaya, this is John. This is Amaya, my mate.” I said. He squinted his eyes at me as if I had said something I shouldn’t have. I knew that saying she was my mate would anger him but the moon goddess chose her to be with me. “Ah, it is nice to finally meet you. You have slowly become
Amaya I never thought my powers were useful or could be used for anything useful. But clearly, Jasper thought I could. As we left the orphanage I couldn’t stop thinking about a conversation I had with my royal siblings. After leaving the woods behind the palace and walking in, I wanted to talk to them, just us. I walked to the hall where the room was and walked in right as they were about to leave. “I want to talk to you,” I said looking at them as they were talking to some workers. They dismissed them, leaving after they bowed. “What is it that you want to talk about so urgently?” Brandon asked “I know that I have a low chance of becoming luna of this pack and or Jasper's mate but I want peace. I want to know that I can leave and not hurt him. Is there a way to make the bond go away without rejecting each other?” I asked, I know the only way to make the mate bond go away was rejection and I’ve heard what it does to people and I don’t want that to happen to us. “There is a way to
Jasper It was slowly but surely getting closer and closer to my birthday. I hadn't liked my birthday but this was the cherry I didn’t need on this horrible day. I had been strategizing how I would run the pack with Amaya and Chloe, ideally, it would be Amaya but I needed to plan for the worst. I wanted to stay in the fantasy that there was a chance that we could be together, and that my father hadn't made a horrible decision for me. As my birthday came up so did the responsibilities of becoming alpha. My father was giving me all of the passcodes and telling me how he had organized the pack and all of its information. I hadn’t liked his way of setting it up so I planned to change it. I spent the rest of my time organizing the files and folders the way I wanted them. I was not the only one who had to prepare to step into a leadership position, Jacob and Elijah and to have lessons on what they do for the former beta and third in command. “So after that, the alphas for the southern
