Chasing fireflies I'll make dad proud
French QuarterThe doorbell chimed, and James swung the door open to find Chloe and Arran on the step. “Get in here,” he said, pulling Chloe into a tight hug. He glanced at Arran with a grin. “Just so you know, I loved her before I found out she is my sister.”Arran shrugged, smirking. “Honestly, I’m getting used to the guys in her life. And her three brothers…”They both laughed, the sound interrupted as Ella peeked around the corner. “Ella, come meet my sister Chloe and her mate Arran,” James said. Ella extended her hand, but Chloe bypassed it, dragging her into a hug instead.They moved to the living room, where James poured drinks and raised his glass. “To us, finally getting our shit together,” he said, his eyes lingering on Chloe.“James mentioned you’re into dancing,” Chloe said to Ella.“Yeah, it’s my major, art and dance,” Ella replied.After some laughter and a few drinks, Chloe stood. “James, I’ve got some stuff to handle, but I’m glad I got to meet you,” she said, nodding
Chasing fireflies We'll be long gone
James eased back, his hands lingering for a moment. “I didn’t expect that,” he admitted, his voice low.“Neither did I,” she replied, a soft smile playing on her lips. “But here we are. So… would you come to my recital? I’ve got a solo.”“Nothing could keep me away,” he said without hesitation.Ella laughed lightly, then hesitated. “James…” Her voice trailed off as she leaned in, kissing him again. This time, he pulled her closer, his hands firm on her waist, the kiss deepening until she broke away, breathless.He stepped back, his mind racing, and walked out, shutting the door behind him. He paced his bedroom, trying to make sense of what had just happened. “What the hell is going on?” he muttered, running a hand through his hair. He stripped down and flopped onto the bed, staring at the ceiling. The kiss, replayed in his mind on a loop. Hours later, he finally gave up on sleep and wandered into the kitchen.She was already there, leaning against the counter with a glass of water in
Chasing fireflies I saw my death
Years later…Atlanta, GeorgiaHank sat there, torn between bolting and staying loyal, but he knew better than to screw Hunter over.Hunter was spiraling hard; nothing could calm him down. Eventually, he decided to head to New Orleans, thinking maybe seeing the pack would snap him out of it.Hank knew it was withdrawals from Chloe. He’d tried to track her down but came up empty. He even went at the elder, pissed that he wouldn’t give up her location.“I just need to see her,” Hunter yelled.“You lost that right,” the elder shot back. “It’s over. Move on.”And then he was gone. Hank had no clue where to even start looking. After a week of dead ends, he gave up and headed back to Atlanta.Canada, TorontoArran and Chloe had been on the move constantly; Salem was growing faster than any human child. Eventually, the coven sisters left, and they settled back in the deep bayou.Chloe loved Arran fiercely, and he made her feel like she was the center of his universe. But there was this itch i
Chasing fireflies It's just...emotions
James studied her as she slept, no bruises, no scars, just peace. He eased onto the bed beside her, careful to leave space, and shut his eyes for what felt like a second. Then fingers brushed his.His eyes snapped open. She flinched.“Hey,” he turned toward her, voice rough. “How’re you feeling?”“Better,” she murmured, those blue eyes locking onto his. “Thanks for… you know.”“Get more sleep,” James said, shifting like he might leave.Her hand caught his. “Stay. Please. I don’t want to be alone yet.”James smiled. “Nobody’s getting to you here. Sleep.” His thumb grazed her cheek. She exhaled, drifting off again.Morning came. She padded to the bathroom, found a box on the towels, a dress inside. The mirror stopped her cold. Blood crusted in her hair, smudged on her skin, but the bruises? Gone.The shower washed it all away. She slipped into the dress, stepped back into the bedroom, and there he was, coffee in hand.“Morning,” she said, taking the mug.“Sleep, okay?”“Yeah.” Her gaze
Chasing fireflies We've got a real castle
James leaned against the balcony railing, whiskey in hand, when the breeze shifted. His head turned sharp. Blood. The metallic tang mixed with something sweet. In two strides, he vaulted over the railing and hit the street below. Empty, save for a couple of stumbling drunks. He sprinted toward the end of the block, the scent growing thicker. Dark alley. Voices echoed, harsh, taunting. “Hold her down,” one growled, fabric tearing. A muffled cry, the sound of struggle.“Get the hell off her,” James snarled, low and dangerous.They spun, laughing until one pulled a gun. James moved faster, ripping his throat out. The man crumpled, clutching his throat. The other two froze, wide-eyed, then bolted like rats. James crouched beside her. Her dress was torn, blood trickling from her nose. She stared at him, trembling, her breath ragged.Without a word, he scooped her up and carried her back to his place. She drifted in and out of consciousness as he forced a drink into her hands. Eventually, s
Chasing fireflies Her name is Salem
One year afterJames stood in the mausoleum, his hands steady as he worked through the ritual. Magic wasn’t easy, certainly not compared to surgery, which felt like child’s play next to some of these spells. But he’d served his time, and now he held three bags of blood, the final piece of the puzzle.With a sharp gesture, he broke the spell and pried open the coffin.“That was… refreshing,” Arran’s voice croaked from inside.James couldn’t help but laugh. Arran sat up, yanking the blindfold off his face and grabbing the blood bags. He drained them in seconds, his movements fast and desperate.“Where is she?” Arran demanded, his voice low.“She had her memories wiped,” James replied, shrugging. “Last I heard, Hunter went to the elder asking about her. And the kid.”“The kid?” Arran’s eyes narrowed.“Hunter’s kid, supposedly,” James said, hesitating. “She didn’t exactly clarify.”Arran clenched his jaw. He knew damn well it wasn’t Hunter’s child. It was his. Was the kid stirring somethi
