Lisa's POV:

Thanks to my daughter, I've been heavily watched and under lock and key. My father raged in, with an anger he's never displayed before. I was so shocked, as well as Adona, when he hauled off and hit me.

Flashback: A day before the council meeting...

It was early evening. I had gone downstairs to eat dinner. I got tired of being cooped up in my room and decided that I would have dinner in the dining room. Adona has never been outright terrible to me, and she extended the offer for

  • I was never Human   A bit more

    Connor's POV:Anxiously, I waited. Everything was finally coming together, but my anxiety won't ease until I have my prize in my hands. It all seemed to be happening quickly, which gave me pause. I received a call from my trackers yesterday night, and it ended with a video call from someone very unexpected.Flashback...I was in my office late, going over a few particulars. I was slowly trying to expand my territory. After giving up a piece of my land all those years ago in order to have a claw in Blackcresent, I was beginning to feel as though I gave it up for nothing. That was until I saw her. From that moment, all my future endeavors revolved around and included her. I'm a man that can wait, especially when in that patience my reward is great. A knock came from my office door. I responded haphazardly, never tearing my gaze from the papers on my desk."Come in."I heard the door creak open. Footsteps approached my desk. I knew it was my beta. Only he has the authorization to interru

  • I was never Human   Let's play

    Kwen's POV:My gaze slipped away from the girl I've come to know as Nina, back to the king. He looked down at me, concerned written all over his face. I took a deep breath."I don't believe those families dabbled with dark magic. I would smell it, but they don't smell clean. That's the only way I can put it for now."Julian nodded, not looking around anymore. Neither of us wanted to draw attention. We continued to sway for a bit longer. As we moved, a faint smile found its way to my lips."What's the smile for?"Julian asked, mirroring my joy. I broke out into a smile, looking up at him."I never thought I'd get a dance like this.""A dance like what?"He asked. My eyes found their way to my dad, my smile falling some."When I was meant to be hidden away from the world, if there was some sort of gathering at the pack house, I would sneak to the hall, usually from the outside garden, and watch everyone inside. People would join hands and dance around. It was all so elegant. Beautiful.

  • I was never Human   Families

    Kwen's POV:It took a bit, but I was finally ready to head to the gathering. The women looked at me in awe, gasping and clutching imaginary pearls."You are incredibly stunning!"One gasped out, as the other 2 nodded their heads in agreement. I smiled, rising to my feet. I walked over to the full body mirror, and was shocked myself. I looked damn goodt!!"Damn."I whispered out. The women giggled. One scurried behind me and began pushing me towards the door."Go. Go! You're already late as is.""Have fun."The last one said to me, wiggling her brows. I laughed as I exited. I walked the halls and began to head towards where the gathering was meant to be held. I noticed people were still filtering in. I ducked off behind a wall, peeking round the corner. I saw many faces. One thing I can definitely give to these supernatural beings, they be sexy as fuck!! I mean, I love a good beast, all brute and bulky. But some of these lean, muscular men, with sharp and soft features, and hair silkie

  • I was never Human   You have a friend

    Julian's POV: I sat upon my throne, looking out on the people. Alpha Brandon and most of his people has already arrived. Many were welcoming, while some looked at the new comers in suspicion. Although I loved seeing and participating in the festivities with my people, I couldn't fully enjoy. My mind was elsewhere. Seth has felt slighted by my resistance in forcing Ismelda into a mates bond with his son. I was more willing to do so before meeting Kwen, but I could not ignore her warnings. The fire in her eyes when it came to protecting my child, even from me, told me many things. I've said it before, but I'll say it again. Leddy was not wrong in her assessment. Kwen moves and talks with the wisdom of a person double, even triple her years. I've heard a fraction of Kwen's life, and I can see the pain behind her eyes when she speaks on what she knows from experience. As much as I'd like to have a better understanding of her myself, I know whatever she tells me would break my heart. A ge

  • I was never Human   Much

    Kwen's POV: It was late morning when I finally woke up. Truthfully, I was awakened due to a knock coming from my door. I begrudgingly slid out of bed, and zombie walked to the door. Fucking Cersai and Regin are gonna get cussed the fuck out for this! Halo purred in my head. 'It hurts so good.' 'Speak for yourself, hoe.' I retorted. She snorted. 'I was.' Halo clapped back. I snickered. I keep forgetting we damn near the same person. My hand turned the handle, then stopped. I looked down. I was completely naked. I rolled my eyes. Oh, come on. I snatched the blanket off the bed, and rushed to the door. I opened it, and to my suprise, I see the king, himself. "Thank God I grabbed the blanket, otherwise, this would've been 10x more awkward." I said, being 100% serious and not serious at the same time. Again, the king's cheeks lit up in a fine shade of pink, looking away. "Pa-pardon me. I know it's rather rude to show up unannounced." I shrugged with a smile. "It's all good.

  • I was never Human   No more secrets(nasty incoming!!)

    Kwen's POV: I saw where Cersai and I would be staying, but decided to take a small walk. I knew Cersai was upset with me, so I wanted to give him a bit of time to cool down. I roamed the massive halls. I passed by very few people, and those that I did, stared. It wasn't an uncomfortable stare, just noticeable. The castle was large. It was filled to the brim with things: artworks that covered the hall walls. Stautes and bust of famous figures of the past, and silver and bejeweled items that seemed too expensive to touch, let alone look at. This place was beautiful, physically. Even in all its beauty, I still felt a chill. Though the halls looked as if it should be bustling with life, it all just felt dead. Empty. The silence was loud. I came upon a portrait that I hadn't paid attention to before. It hung high on a wall and greeted each face as people had to pass by it everyday. It was a portrait of a beautiful woman. Her features were soft. Her eyes were the same light glacier blue th

  • I was never Human   Safe for now

    I stood staring at the door that my daughter had just left out of. To tell the truth, I didn't know how to feel. For one, I feel like I should be scolding her for the way she spoke to me and about the way she threatened my mate. But I couldn't help feeling this twinge of pride knowing my daughter,

    Kyle's POV: It took all my strength to keep my composure when the Luna went off on me months back. I never really cared for her much before, but she seemed to have worsened or, better yet, exposed her true nature since Kwen came into the picture. I left the dining room pissed and stormed away to t

    We all rushed to the medical center where Kyle and Brody were. I couldn't wait to see them. I needed to know they were alright. I ran through the double doors back towards the rooms and smelled my way all the way to them. Inside a long corridor, one of the middle rooms had lights on. I smelled them
