Alpha's Mage 15. Jade's Eyes Miss Nothing
[Erica]The professor droned on and on about the history of English literature, about the works of William Shakespeare and how Charles Marlowe could have been more popular than him, had he lived longer. Erica, who never dozed off in class felt like taking a full-fledged nap. She had hardly gotten enough sleep the previous few nights, constantly doing research on her essay. She couldn't even give a good presentation on the novel they were reading in class. On the one hand, she felt miserable for being so laid back when it came to academics and on the other hand, she couldn't think of anything other than the paranormal stuff going on with her. "Psst..." someone hissed startled her. She turned towards the guy sitting beside her who whispered, "Stop zoning out, Prof has been glaring at you for the past 10 minutes." Erica glanced at the professor. He was indeed glaring at her direction. She sat up straight and willed her brain to cooperate. She started scribbling down whatever the profess
Alpha's Mage 16. An Indirect Meeting
[Xavier]He picked up the phone in a daze and dialled Jade's number. The phone was answered on the third ring, "What's up Xav?" came the chirpy voice from the other end. "Someone sent me an email. I am forwarding it to you. Check it once and call me", he said all the while tapping away on the keyboard. Without even listening to what the other person had to say, he hung up.Leikos was anxious. Who sent him an email? on his private email id? Did they underestimate the spies ability? His hackles rose. He called Sebastian who picked up immediately. "King," he greeted. "I need the details of every human on the campus," he ordered. "Yes. I will send you the details by tomorrow morning," the old man said. Xavier hummed in acknowledgement He then called Arnold and asked him to track the IP address of the sender. As soon as he put the phone down, it began to ring again. Jade was calling. He picked up, "What do you think?""Who sent this to you?" Jade asked, her voice trembled a little. "Som
Alpha's Mage 17. The Obliterated History
[Xavier]"I have sent you the translated copy," Jade said over the phone. Xavier sighed. He still could not shake off Erica's gaze on him. How she had directly looked into Leikos' eyes. "Hm, alright I will take a look", he replied tiredly. "Is the Alpha King tired already?" Jade asked lightly but Xavier could detect the underlying concern laced in her tone. "Would Erica be able to see an animal or a person past the barrier?" he asked instead. "Yes, of course. She could see the other section in the library. Xav?" Jade's questioning tone clearly conveyed that she knew he had done something and she wanted to know. "Yesterday Leikos may or may not have gone to visit Erica...." he began and immediately Leikos protested, 'Hey! I wasn't alone! Traitor!'"...and we may have seen her and then she may or may not have seen us", Xavier finished completely ignoring his wolf's threatening growls. He heard Jade sigh, "Damn. Xav, look I know you are yearning for her but this...what you did was not
Alpha's Mage 18. Midnight Blues Turned Onyx Black
[Erica]To say she was feeling awkward and self-conscious would be an understatement because it wasn't every day that one saw the trustee of the University entering the library with a student, a freshman at that. Erica's gaze shifted from one corner to the other. The library was fairly empty at this time save for a few scholars immersed in a sea of books. She felt a little relief when she saw that no one looked at their direction well except the librarian."Good morning K- Mr.Ravenwood," he greeted with a short but courteous bow. The librarian was a short man in his mid-40s probably. His eyes had infinitesimally widened with the slip of his tongue. Erica's eyes did not miss that. 'There is some honorific with which they address him but why do they stop midway? Even Drake had done the same thing,' she couldn't help but ponder, adding another intriguing query to a long list of unsolved ones. She peered at him to see that he was sort of glaring at the poor man. She hurriedly said to him
Alpha's Mage 19. A Tour of the Castle
[Xavier]Ever since he had taken up the role of an Alpha King...no maybe after he had turned 16 and found his wolf, he had longed for this moment - to be able to be in the presence of his mate. Even though she was partly oblivious to this truth, a fact that bound her to him in heart and soul, for this lifetime and next, still, Xavier was content with what he had at the moment. Leikos shared this sentiment as well. He was literally purring. He stole a glance at his beautiful mate as they walked in silence. She was occasionally sipping from the cup as her eyes took in their surroundings. They had come a little farther away from the buildings where the classes were being held and he was about to show her the main castle. He informed Jade about this through a quick text because she was only one privy about the reason behind his inclination towards her. "Gosh! now I have to be your wing woman too?!" his aunt had said with mock exasperation. "Maybe," he had retorted. He had instructed her
Alpha's Mage 20. Echoes of the Past
[Erica]She looked around, stupified. Never has she dreamt of a place where she has never been before. Even though unlike in her dream, the place looked quite well looked after, it was quite bright as well. As she walked warily, her eyes remained alert. She gave a sweeping glance to spot the figure but they were nowhere to be found. She had an odd feeling, just like in her dream, she found a sense of familiarity. As if she knew this part by heart. As if she had already been here in person. It emanated a warm feeling almost like a person would feel coming home after a long time. She felt baffled by this. She decided to see around anyway. The east wing was pretty much like the west. The only difference was that there were fewer rooms which were all closed and most importantly this part had not been redesigned in any way. The place was untouched by modernity, it still held the past grandeur and care of its owner, Erica also discerned that the decors were more feminine, she could tell t
Alpha's Mage 21. Unbelievable Revelation
[Xavier]The information that was divulged by Erica was not what he was expecting. Even Leikos was baffled by this. The cogs in his brain seemed to be working slowly at that moment, processing and reprocessing her confession. Erica was looking at him earnestly, hopefully as if he would have an answer to her uncanny or should he say supernatural experience. He did not know what his face conveyed but gradually Erica lowered her eyes and made a move to pull away and that seemed to jolt Xavier out of his stupor."No!" he said a little too loudly making her squeak. She immediately ceased the action. Xavier felt guilty for scaring his mate, he hurriedly corrected his mistake, "I mean...I did not expect to...hear such a thing." He was anxious. Leikos huffed exasperatedly and had his wolf been a human he would have surely rolled his eyes. For the first time in his life, he felt at a loss for words.Erica frowned, "What were you expecting then?"'Maybe the fact that you are the Sp-''Don't eve
Alpha's Mage 22. A Crucial Decision
[Xavier]"So what you are saying is...she has heardsomeone call her Rosamond and then she hears the same voice calling someone 'Leif'?" Jade inquired again. Xavier grunted an angry "Yes", to her query.He had walked Erica to her hostel which did not go amiss by many students and staff's prying eyes. He went back to his office and called off the meeting to his family's surprise and Ava's annoyance and then called Jade, narrating to her whatever Erica had divulged. Jade, too, seemed thoughtful about it."So do you have any possible theory about this?" Xavier asked impatiently. Erica's blank stare and slumped shoulders were still etched in his brain, she looked like she had given up on something. As if him not believing her completely had made her believe that she might be delusional and Xavier loathed himself for it. Leikos was not comfortable with this situation as well."Look...I think I have one.
