41. Believe
Xavier
"How was your date?" Arnold asked not even trying to conceal his amusement. He glared at him, "So Matty told you?"
The beta shook his head, "You can be quite conspicuous when romance is involved and let me tell you I was elated to discover this flaw of yours". He could see Arnold smiling smugly. They were patrolling the forest along with other royal guards and some student alphas. He really wanted to go home and recount the moments spent with his mate but then duty came first.
"How did my conspicuousness give away my secret?" the alpha asked humorously which was rare for him after they took up their expected roles in the werewolf hierarchy. He sighed and looked up. "That's...rare", he did not turn to look at his friend.
"You must really be happy today", the smile in Arnold's voice was evident. This time he looked at him. Yes, he was, after a long time. It felt like he was breathing fresh air after staying in a roo

Erica Was the text too forward? she thought as she stared at the screen as if staring at it would make Xavier reply to her message. But she had debated as to how she should formulate the message and finally the message she just sent sounded perfect then. She smacked her forehead and plopped back on the bed. Sundays were supposed to be fun-days but the word had decided to escape from her life the moment she had stepped into this campus. Her train of thoughts was interrupted by a loud banging on the door before it was flung opened unceremoniously. Lana marched in, "It's 10 in the morning, today is the first Sunday none of the three of us are doing anything so get your butt moving and freshen up we are going to visit the town", her order did not leave any room for argument so ERica just nodded and hurried to the washroom. It's true that this was the first time all three of them were free. It has already been one and a half month. How time flies, she sighed before turning on the shower.
Alpha's Mage 43. Family Secrets
EricaShe felt as if the walk from the cafe to the hotel seemed to take an eternity. Xavier had held her hand while they weaved through the thin crowd. Her heart was pounding. Why did her mom sound so stressed out? "I know it will fall into deaf ears but don't worry so much. I am sure it is nothing serious", Xavier murmured. Erica chuckled a little at that. She replied, "I hope it isn't anything serious. But it is so unlike her. She is the calm on out of the two". When they reached Erica asked, "Do you want to go in with me?" she was a bundle of nerves at the moment. Her gut feeling indicated that something bad was in store for her. Xavier shook his head, "I think it is a family matter where I might not be a welcome addition. I have some work at the office anyway. But call me if you need to, alright?" Erica nodded slowly. Xavier leaned forward and placed a soft kiss on her lips. Her eyes fluttered close. This was new to her. He pulled away and cupped her cheeks, "Don't stress too mu
Alpha's Mage 44. A Father's Perspective
Xavier As he drove towards the university, his mind veered back to the sudden phone call Erica received from her parents. I hope nothing serious has happened; he thought. Leikos remained silent. Ava was supposed to visit today and the woman whom he had once looked forward to spending time with, now seemed nagging. He sighed, he wasn't thrilled with the turn of events. Ava was his best friend, and she had been by his side through the hardest time and he owed it to her.Or was it an obligation for what she had gone through because of him? What she had lost all those years ago?~~~~Ava was waiting for him in his office. Her demeanour was haughty and when she glanced at him, her gaze shot daggers. He raised an eyebrow, "Someone woke up on the wrong side of the bed it seems". He kept his tone as casual as possible. He took a seat before asking, "So...what brings you here?" "Can't I visit my best friend if I want to?" she huffed, crossing her arms in front of her chest. He shook his head,
Alpha's Mage 45. Evangeline
EricaShe walked back to the campus in a daze. She knew if she wished to, she could have called Xavier and he would come to pick her up no matter what work he was doing, but she did not call him nor did she answer his call. What will she tell him? How will she face him now?Did you mean this as well? Should I tell him who I supposedly am? she questioned the silhouette man in her mind, expecting no answer, and she was partially disappointed when no one responded. She sighed, her legs started aching again. She felt weary and weighed down. Just when she thought she couldn't thank the Heavens enough for the wonderful things happening in her life, this revelation was dropped on her.While walking back alone she realised that the journey from the campus to the town was not a short one. She quickly glanced at the time on her phone. It was almost 8. As she was entering through the gate, she spotted her brother. Drake looked flushed
Alpha's Mage 46. Dormant Wolf in Disguise
[Xavier]"I have narrowed down the list of suspects", Sebastian said as he handed him the file. He scanned them. There were 15 names in total. All of them were human, but beside one name, it was written: dormant.Before Xavier could question, Gail, a professor and former Beta in Silvercreek Pack, said, "His name is Axel Saunders. He has been telling everyone that he is a human, but our special team had detected him behaving suspiciously. He has been seen going out of the campus frequently and in the town, to a run-down motel of sorts"."So have you seen him with any of our Kind?" he asked, putting down the file on the desk."Yes, a few wolves and a few humans, but there is no one in particular with whom he hangs out," Gail replied. Xavier nodded, "Alright, keep investigating".Once they had left, Arnold entered. "Are we patrolling tonight?""Yes, ask Vlad to patrol near the junior's hostel," he instructed.&
Alpha's Mage 47. A Glimpse of the Past
[Erica]She stared at the book lying on the desk. It's just an effing book not a fucking time bomb, calm down Rica, she tried to assure herself but her heart kept pounding even more so because Xavier was now able to read her like an open book. She had feared that he would almost coax the truth out of her but thankfully he didn't. She shook away those thoughts. She needed to read this book and hopefully, hopefully, she will know more about her powers.The red-leather-bound book, titled: Language of Colours, written by an anonymous, looked similar to the one that she had picked up on that fateful day, the day she had unknowingly 'infiltrated' a magical barrier. Even though it was in good condition, the wear and tear on the edges and the yellowing pages told a different story.Taking a deep breath, she began reading...~~'...An aura can be described as the emanation of colours that surround
Alpha's Mage 48. The Mind Reader
[Erica]She had realised that she had fallen asleep while reading. But without a doubt, that dream had not been her imagination or her subconscious playing games with her. She had been shown a glimpse of the past. So she had gone straight to find Xavier and when she was informed by Arnold that he was in his office, she had burst in, eager to tell him about all that she had learnt when she noticed Queen Jade's presence.That gave her an idea. The Queen of the wizarding world was her only option at that moment. She would know how Erica could enhance and improve her abilities. However, when she asked Jade to help, she received a puzzled look."You want me to teach you?" the blue-haired woman asked slowly. Erica nodded her head eagerly. "Why? I mean, all of a sudden?" the older woman furrowed her eyebrows. Erica glanced at Xavier who had back to sitting, frowning at the laptop screen. Huh? What's up with him. Jade probably followed her g
Alpha's Mage 49. Mage Queen
[Erica]Her entire body turned numb. Jade's piercing gaze bore into her. She opened and closed her mouth, but no words seemed to come out of it. Jade pursed her lips, "I know you might not have meant to keep it a secret or do you even know what powers a witch can possess?" Erica considered her question before answering, "I don't".Nevertheless, her heart was pounding in her ears. What if Jade actually knew she was a mage but was pretending to be unaware of her true identity? Jade fixed her gaze on the castle, "Our Kind has evolved. We also have laws and taboos like the human world. Our Elder -- supernatural beings who are over 1000 years old had formed a Council and have formulated these laws. Our Kind has evolved as humans have and we have seen many beings possess such rare and powerful abilities that have baffled majority of the Council many a time". She turned to look at Erica once again, "However, your powers are combined so strangely t
