The Future of Love and Family

*Xelina*

The spell my grandmother cast, an ancient invocation of the Moon Goddess, weaves itself into the moonstone resting at my throat. When the final call passes my lips, the magic stirs. It shimmers outward in threads of light, forming a portal that opens into the Emerald Coast.

A tropical heat wraps around us, and the air is thick with the scent of salt and flowering vines, ripe fruit and sand still warm from a sun long set. Under a sky of violet and berry wine, spangled with brilliant stars, the beach stretches before us in a pale gold sand glittering under moonlight like powdered pearls. The ocean moves in sighs of turquoise and shadow, its waves glowing faintly with bioluminescence where they break, as if the sea itself has caught fire.

I’ve never seen water this color. I’ve never seen palm-like trees that arch toward the waves, their fronds whispering secrets across the shore. Far ahead, cliffs rise like the spines of sleeping beasts, half-draped in lush greenery that drink

  • Beauty and the Alpha Beast   The Future of Love and Family

    *Xelina*The spell my grandmother cast, an ancient invocation of the Moon Goddess, weaves itself into the moonstone resting at my throat. When the final call passes my lips, the magic stirs.

  • Beauty and the Alpha Beast   The Question

    *Xelina*The castle feels alive in a way I’ve never known before. Since my father, Thalia, and the girls arrived, every corner echoes with new laughter and new memories in the making. Lazlo’s parents have been nothing but kind, their smiles easy and eyes bright with curiosity and welcome. His mother fusses over the girls, knitting tiny clothes for their dolls while telling them tales of her childhood in Virechant. Lazlo’s father drinks ale with my father by the hearth, as if forging bonds between old souls. I watch them all, my heart swelling with gratitude. This is more than I dared hope for, a place where my past and present blend, where the fragments of my life find peace.Tonight at dinner, we all sit around the table, our plates piled high with roasted meats and fresh bread, our glasses clinking with elderberry wine. Lazlo’s parents tell stories of their youth, and my father listens intently, a hint of ease in his eyes. After the last of the dishes are cleared and everyone ret

  • Beauty and the Alpha Beast   Blessings

    *Lazlo*The morning mist hangs over the fields as I step outside the cottage. Stonehollow is quiet, the light just brushing the tops of the trees, the roofs damp with dew. I watch the smoke rising from the chimney and let the tranquility settle in me. It’s peaceful here, gentle in a way I don’t often get to experience. No court politics or looming war, just a man and his daughter reunited, and I’ve been lucky enough to witness it.Behind me, the door creaks. Xelina steps out, wrapped in a shawl. Her eyes meet mine, and the corner of her mouth lifts. “He’s making ham and eggs,” she murmurs. “He insists you’ll love his eggs.”I’m amused. “You know I can’t pass up ham and eggs.”We head back inside. Caelan hums while stirring the pan, and the two girls giggle in the corner while one brushes the other’s hair. He’s settled into fatherhood again with grace. After we eat, I let Xelina and her father talk while I clean up. When the time feels right, I speak.“I’d like to invite you to Virech

  • Beauty and the Alpha Beast   Family

    *Xelina*The sky is pale with the first stretch of dawn when I open my eyes. Dew clings to the edges of the bedroll, and smoke from last night’s fire curls faintly in the air, a ghost of warmth. For a moment, I don’t move, my heart already racing. Today, I may see my father.Lazlo stirs beside me, sitting up without a word. His gaze finds mine, but he doesn’t ask if I’m ready. He doesn’t need to. I don’t think I ever will be.We pack in silence. The rhythm of it soothes me–the folding of blankets, the buckling of saddle straps, the gentle hush of my fingers through my mare’s mane. For nine years, I’ve believed my father was dead. I was a girl with dirt on her knees and fire in her chest when the news came. Mireth never let me see his body or his grave. Now, I have found out he’s alive in a village I’ve never even heard of. Lazlo brushes his hand against mine as he passes me the last of the packs. Together, we lead the horses toward the narrow path that winds downhill through the tre

  • Beauty and the Alpha Beast   I'd Follow Her Anywhere

    *Lazlo*The morning air is crisp as we slip from the shadow of the treeline, our paws brushing damp leaves, our breath fogging in the dewy light. We’ve shifted early, before the sun crested the ridge, and now we run: two wolves weaving through wild pines, the thud of hooves behind us steady and familiar.The trail is overgrown and narrow, just as I remembered, the sort of path only beasts and ghosts follow. I lead the way, guiding the pack horses with occasional glances, keeping them between us like a tether to the world we left behind. Their saddlebags are filled with food, water, clothing and supplies, but they trust our pace now. Xelina runs just ahead of me, her white coat shining in the sun. She doesn’t slow when the brush thickens or the trail narrows, doesn’t flinch at the cold bite of stream water or the crack of limbs beneath her paws. She runs toward the truth and her father.We shift back in the evenings, long enough to check the packs, drink, eat, and sleep. Xelina’s hai

  • Beauty and the Alpha Beast   He Is Out There

    *Xelina*The glen opens before us like a secret whispered by the trees. Every branch, every leaf hums with quiet enchantment. I step forward, breathing it in deeply. The stillness here is different: alive with good magic. Lazlo walks beside me, his hand grazing mine. The path beneath our feet was worn smooth by witches who came before us, those who sought peace, healing, or simply a place to exhale.My grandmother, Elysia, steps from the trees wearing a deep green gown, her soft white curls framing a face with eyes the color of smoke. Before I even take the last step, her arms open wide, and I fold into her embrace, burying my face against her shoulder where the scent of lilies washes over me. “You’re here,” she murmurs gently. “I’ve missed you,” I say, meaning it more than words can hold. Lazlo bows politely, but she chuckles and waves him upright. “There’s no need for that here.”We’re led into the heart of the glen, where tables are already set beneath the boughs, woven lanterns
