Elf To Tame A Werewolf Ride To Qarax
CAIVANI've been here for a while, I don't know how long, but time must have gone by fast. When I finally shake off the mire of an unconscious sleep, I find that I'm thirsty as hell. The horse had bolted off with my food and water, so I'm stuck here. Cases like this make me want to take off my leash and go full wolven. And as always, I rein in myself. The Wolf finally howls for me when a cart comes down rumbling down the forest road. The man riding the vehicle looks to be in his late fifties; gray-bearded, black and white hair and a few wrinkles on his face. He hums a tune to himself, but his eyes dart here and there, on the lookout for possible trouble. I consider my options. I could easily take him out, steal his cart. Or I could just ask him for a ride. The odds that he would acquiesce to my request are small, as far as I know. I settle on asking him for help, and take his cart if he doesn't yield. I step into the road, waving my arms, trying my best to look injured and helpless.
Elf To Tame A Werewolf At The Capital
CAIVANTurns out Darwin is right. It's four crows past twilight when I spot the gates of Qarax from a distance. The city itself is a blinding maze of lights from this distance and we can both hear the hum of people within its walls. Darwin says he's off to Terhaven; according to his updated and more accurate map, the road to the town branches off here, down the slope towards a small tributary. I alight and shake his hand. 'You're a queer fellow', he says, 'But in a good way. May the luck of The Seven be with you'. 'And you, Master Darwin. Say hello to the family for me', I say, 'Oh and here's a little token of my appreciation'. Luckily, the blasted horse had not taken my pouch along. I take it out, count a couple godens and hand them to him. He declines politely, but I insist. 'At least, let one deed of good be counted to me', I say, tapping into the pious sayings of worshipers of the Seven. He agrees grudgingly then, and sets off towards Terhaven. The city is built directly in fro
Elf To Tame A Werewolf Through The Looking Glass
CYRANThe air is thick with magic. It's everywhere, the rexume plants stretch out like some lake of vegetation as far as a hundred yards. The aquamarine leaves seem to glow with the sun, and the peas are bursting from their pods. I've seen a plantation of kingpeas; we were made to work the King's Glade, watering and harvesting them; but not this wide and unprotected. Saelyna's breath is on hold, and her skin is pale. At first, I assume she's awed by the plants as I am. But then, she turns around and throws up a stream of black sludge. Alarmed, I turn to Veesa, but she's nodding with a smile. 'She must have felt their magic', she says and Argell nods. 'What the fuck are you talking about?' I ask with consternation as I hurry to her side. 'Do something!' I call to Veesa. 'No need to be alarmed, boy. Her body is purging the last of the rexanten, reacting to the pure magic of iden', she says calmly. Saelyna touches my arm lightly. 'I'm alright', she says, 'I'm fine. It's all gone. I thi
Elf To Tame A Werewolf The Malady Of Homesickness
CAIVANI'm quite confused as to why I wake up feeling homesick. Perhaps it's the dream I had, but it doesn't make sense; a replay of that night, when I attacked the mage. 'Lord', it had hissed, though I don't remember seeing this one at court to recall my title. Or any one for that matter. I hadn't wasted time wondering, or tearing him apart. The predominant part of the "dream", however, is her face. It still flashes in my mind's eye now: the long black hair tucked behind pointed ears and her lucent, green eyes. I wonder why that makes me nostalgic. I don't let anyone in, not even the servants when they come to draw my bath. I fill the tub myself, and though the hot water makes my hair stand on end, I'm grateful for it. Many would interpret my actions last night as an act of defiance or something. Especially the trouble stirrer, Edward. And I might be overstepping my boundaries, but it might well be my last night at Qarax, before I set the cogwheels of my plan into motion. That Xan
Elf To Tame A Werewolf A Chat With Wolves
SAELYNAI've not seen her before but she grins at me, revealing large wolven fangs and I recall what Veesa said about some of them retaining their lupine features due to trauma. I wonder what happened to her. 'Uh…hello, Keilen. I'm Saelyna'. She bends her head again. 'Love your ears', she says, pointing, 'They're so…pointy'. There's a childishness to her act, but I'm not fooled. She has to be older than eighteen, give or take. 'And I like your…hair. Your eyes as well'. 'Oh'. She blinks and the red is replaced with a dark brown. 'I like keeping them on red so I can see ultra vision. It's supposed to be an ability only alphas can possess. But what do I know?' I feel my eyes widen. 'You're an alpha?' I whisper. She throws her head back and utters a soft laugh that makes me warm up to her. 'Alpha, she says. No, Saelyna, an alpha is not chosen by trivialities like eye colour. It's by achievements. Or so I hear'. Something about her tone makes me ask what she means. She leans in, like she'
Elf To Tame A Werewolf BONDED PAST
RONNI probably should have locked her in a separate hut.Saelyna looks visibly shaken when I get to her. Keilen stands beside her, wringing her hands and I frown at this unlikely alignment. What the hell is she up to? 'Please tell me Gylen is being eaten in there'. They both whip around to face me, Saelyna looks particularly horrified. I like that new look, it makes her cuter. 'Not to burst your bubble, but no', Keilen says, 'I'll be back, I got work to do'. She gives Saelyna a smile and disappears around the bend of the hut.'Why would you people keep wolves in cages? What for? And who's that…the grey wolf? Why was she chained up?' My gaze flicks to her lips and back to her frantic eyes. 'Come on. You shouldn't be here', I say and grab her arm. She doesn't fight, but she pulls her arm out of my grip as she follows me.When we're short distance from the hut, I ask her what she was doing there. She balks and folds her arms over her chest. 'I'm not a kid', she says. 'No', I shake my he
Elf To Tame A Werewolf THE WHISPERER
CYRANI watch them splash about without interest. I never learnt to swim, and I'm definitely not learning with these wolvens. Sitting here, on the edge of this rock suddenly feels precarious, and I stand up to go when I see it.A brown wolf slinking forward quietly. I blink severally, it must be the same hallucination I had two days before. But it's real; all my senses have picked up the all too familiar traces of danger.Instinctively, I reach for my arrow. It's not at hand. I take out my hunting knife, but it takes me a while to realize it's not even looking at me. Then I remember the others.I yell for them to get out of the water, waving my arms wildly and jumping frantically. Gylen hears me but when he turns, the creature has slouched off. He swims closer. 'What did you say?' he asks. 'There was a wolf's, I say, 'Brown and..and the largest animal I've seen..' Seirmon and Edril come by as well, their eyes scou
Elf To Tame A Werewolf HYBRIDS
CYRANThe trail is fresh, so I have little difficulty following them steadily downhill. I pay attention to the sounds of the forest, stealthily moving along the shadows of the trees. Deja vu, and I'm back in Halden woods, hunting for game, being attacked by a wolven that ironically, I am now tracking.I stop suddenly. The tracks have gone cold, and I can't see much anywhere from here. I scout a little, sweeping the place in an arc, but I don't find anything. I'm about to keep heading forward, when a hand falls on my shoulder and heaves me up into the branches of the oak tree.I'm face to face with Gylen in human form, but he places a finger to his lips, then stares pointedly into the distance. I follow his gaze with dread and there are two wolves.They are the largest beasts I've seen, but there's something else about them as well. I can't place it, but I'm not going to check it out this time. Gylen is unnaturally
