CalumHe was lying numbly with his head on his sweet Ilene’s lap, while she played with his hair. Her touch as her nails gently ran over his scalp helped to soothe the constant numbness he was experiencing when he had no more tears to cry.He knew there were people who cared for him, more than his own mother seemed to have ever done. But despite him having the most amazing father in the world, he still felt the loss of the only mother he’d ever known. He had loved her unconditionally, even if she hadn’t returned the sentiment. But he was alone in his grief; it seemed no one else were even vaguely emotional at his mother’s death.Was his grief for her wrong? Was he betraying his pack by grieving the she-wolf that had cared for no one but herself?“I know you feel alone, baby. But I promise you that you aren’t alone. You’re loved more than you think. You’re the f

Forty Eight – The Next Step

Claims to Ember/Carien van Dalen

AshHe could see that she’d been overwhelmed that day, so he’d pulled the queen aside the first chance he had, while they were sitting down for lunch and mentioned that Ember was having a hard time coping with all the changes in her world and the queen agreed to keeping things to one big change per day.When they all sat down to lunch and Grizelda told her story, he would occasionally remind Ember to take a bite of food, since she was so immersed in the story that she forgot to eat. Leo and Oliver were also lapping up all the information they could, although nothing would stop them from eating. Ember was still learning that she had to eat more to sustain her and Lume healthily, so she would occasionally slow down before she’d had enough food.Ember was deep in thought the rest of the afternoon, which they spent just being teenagers, watching movies and playing board games, while he slipped in high protein and energy snacks for her w

Forty Nine – Frustration

Claims to Ember/Carien van Dalen

UnknownHe was keeping an eye on the devices he’d planted in her room whenever he got the chance. He’d been hoping to catch a glimpse of her. But his frustration mounted as days went by and she hadn’t returned to her dorm room. Weren’t the students in the academy held to the highest standards? Surely, that included timely and regular attendance.And he knew for a fact she couldn’t be staying somewhere else while going to school, since the school insisted that they stay on their premises for the sake of security. He didn’t think much of their security, to be honest, since he’d managed to get in and out without even breaking a sweat. They must keep the security to simply keep the males and females apart to avoid scandals. Of course, they did have co-ed dorms for seniors when they found their mates, but the rest were kept strictly male and female.He leaned back in his chair and sta

Fifty – To Be a Princess

Claims to Ember/Carien van Dalen

OliverThe morning after they had met Grizelda, who he had spent the afternoon researching, Ember and Ash came out of their room a little later than usual. Ember seemed shy and embarrassed and Ash looked decidedly happy with himself. Leo didn’t even notice the change in them; he was just being his usual happy self, more so now that he was happy with adopting his own personal baby sister.So when they started their morning run for warm-ups, Oliver simply needed to know. “Care to share why you look like the cat that got the cream?” He asked in mind link.“What does that even mean?” Ash asked in confusion. Alright, maybe he’d taken the human research a little far, but the cat idioms were so cool when they couldn’t come near cats without them fleeing in terror.“It means you look decidedly pleased with yourself and Ember seems very shy this morning.&rdquo

Fifty One – Birthday Wake-up

Claims to Ember/Carien van Dalen

AshIt was amazing the amount of training his mate had soaked up in the week leading up to her birthday. She learned very quickly, but she was always exhausted by the end of the day, especially since she had been told to wear heels everywhere to get used to walking in them. He’d resorted to massaging her feet in the afternoons when they tried to relax while watching movies or playing games and in the evenings when they went to their room.She even kicked Leo’s ass in the games they played on the console and Leo’s reaction had been priceless, since he had always been the best between the three of them. After that he would challenge her daily on every game conceivable, trying to win against her. He was never successful. Turns out his mate was also an avid gamer and didn’t just repair random objects for her old pack.The morning of her birthday dawned and he was so excited to give her the gift he had got specifi

Fifty Two – Birthday Celebrations

Claims to Ember/Carien van Dalen

LeoHe was ecstatic when Ember gave him a grateful hug for her gift and when she came out of her room after their training, she was wearing the T-shirt he had gifted her. He couldn’t stop the grin splitting his face. Oliver took a picture of the two of them in their shirts and he changed it to his background before sending it to his parents.His mother reacted with several laughing emoji’s and his father just sent the emoji with the rolling eyes. Well, his dad had absolutely no sense of humor about his new adopted daughter that he found out about from his mother after her first shift! He would just have to get used to the idea.They joined the king and queen for breakfast, along with Grizelda, who was cackling the moment she saw their shirts; she was always such fun. She had pointed him towards these shirts; did she really think he wouldn’t get them? The queen tittered and the king rolled his eyes, but a smal

Fifty Three – Moon Dance

Claims to Ember/Carien van Dalen

EmberNot long after dinner, Ember found the two witches at her door; both grinning with excitement. Ash had been pouting since he found out they’d be naked, something she hadn’t known either and she was having some real doubts about the whole ceremony now.Both of the women were in silk dressing gowns and, judging from the way they hung on them, there was nothing underneath. “Why aren’t you ready, sweetheart?” The queen asked with a soothing smile.“I mean…do I have to be naked?” She asked in a small voice.“She changes in a shed, Your Highness; I don’t think she’s ready to be naked out in the open.” Ash answered for her, when he came up behind her, resting his hand on the small of her back in a soothing gesture.Grizelda cackled her amusement. “Your parents would be so proud of you, darling!”The queen grinned with her o

Fifty Four – Awkward

Claims to Ember/Carien van Dalen

Ash*TW: Mention of the sexual acts*He didn’t know what they’d done during the moon dance, but the queen had sent a warrior to bring him to the clearing, where he found Ember lying on the clover and staring at the stars like she was in a daze.When he touched her, she gave him a loopy grin and then did something he would’ve never expected from her. She started kissing him with a hunger he couldn’t refuse if he wanted to. And then she went straight to third base, her hips moving seductively along the ridge of his hard cock while he held her helplessly in his arms. He wasn’t sure what to do, but he was delirious with lust, which she had caused, by not only looking amazingly sexy in the purple lingerie set, but riding him to her own completion.He couldn’t hold back his own release if he wanted to; even less when she proceeded to mark him during her own orgasm, thus extending his o

Fifty Five – The Ball

Claims to Ember/Carien van Dalen

OliverMary, the seamstress, and the two witches had whisked Ember away just after breakfast with all the other females in Ember’s life, despite Ash’s consternation. The king had smiled at his dismay with amusement and told him they would all have to wait for their mate’s to get ready for the ball. But it was just after breakfast; what could they possibly need to do to start getting ready in the morning?Ash was fidgety and impatient the whole day, pacing the cinema where they had decided to watch a movie. Leo was tapping away at his phone, sending constant texts to Ember’s phone for answers; then he’d snicker and tell them her answers. Ember seemed pretty impatient and unsure about the whole thing.Leo snickered. “She says they’re wrapping them all up like burritos in dark slimy stuff….” His phone dinged and he broke into laughter so hard that Oliver had to take his phone

Fifty Six – Flashback

Claims to Ember/Carien van Dalen

EmberShe’d spent the whole day with the other women; it was strange and she wasn’t sure how she felt about it. Not being around the women, but what they considered pampering. Why was plucking at her eyebrows considered pampering? It hurt!!And then they went on to cover her eyebrows and lashes in this weird gunk and she had to lie there with her eyes closed or it would burn. Apparently that was called tinting her lashes and eyebrows.She was startled when someone suddenly took her hand and she squeaked in shock. Ilene giggled on the bed next to her. “You’ll get used to it, Ember. This is such fun!” She reassured her.Ember was still on the fence with this. Turns out they gave her a manicure, once the gunk was cleaned off, she got the choice of which color she wanted on her nails. Then they were moved to really comfortable chairs and their feet were soaked, then scru
