Slave to the Alpha King Summit Mist
Pheobe had summoned all the tomes containing any scrap of information about breaking a mate bond once a mark was in place, but first the wanted to do a cleansing, and help repair some of my wards. I was so tired, down to my soul, I was depleted. As I sat with my feet in the stream, the massive pine above me groaned, its branches bowing and descending slowly. Vines snaked out of the brush and intertwined with the pine branches, and branches from nearby tree that reached out. Just like out last night in the holding sanctuary, the forest responded to my magic, offering me shelter. It started about two feet into the stream, allowing the water to still flow, keeping my connection with pheobe intact, and formed a sort of tall dome abound me. When it was finished I finally felt relaxed enough to lay back and close my eyes, listening to pheobe chant in my mind, feeling the sweet, soft caress of her healing magic. It reminded me of my mothers cool hands, and my fathers warm hugs. Pheobe sens
Slave to the Alpha King What's best for all
Eli didn't knock, but he did hesitate once inside, before shutting the door and moving towards my spot by the fire. He crouched down beside me, taking in my appearance. My hair was tangled and contained a few pine needles and leaves that I'd need to work out with conditioner, dried mud streaked my feet and calves, and I'm sure the bags under my eyes were big enough to fit all of the luggage we would need when we left to visit Summit Mist. If Eli agreed to it, that is, and if Ransom agreed to a truce for the time being. Eli reached out to me, hesitating when his hand was inches away from my jaw, but I refused to flinch away, refused to give him power over me. When he finally traced his thumb over my cheek, down the line of may jaw, hushed sparks trailed along with him. I closed my eyes and focused on using my magic to cage the mate bond, the feelings it made me feel, and lock it away within myself. After a few minutes of trying, Eli had already taken a seat a few feet away from me, o

The bond didn't feel the way I thought it would. It didn't force me to fall in love with Eli, but it did strengthen the longing I had for him. The sparks intensified, and I allowed Eli to pull me into his arms, standing under the steaming shower stream, we just held onto each other, neither of us wanting to pull away. I had expected him to want to mate, for Ridley to come forward, for Athena to go wild in my mind, but all was quiet and peaceful, I didn't even feel evidence of arousal from Eli, even though our naked bodies were pressed together. I only felt peace, and relief. I was still tired, but the bone deep exhaustion I had been dragging around with me seemed to have lifted. Eli's touch was like a balm to my wounded soul, even if I didn't want to admit it. He finally let me go, stepping out to retrieve towels for both of us. Once we had both dressed and finished getting ready for bed, Eli scooped me up and slipped under the covers, positioning me so that I was facing him, wit
Slave to the Alpha King Eat your heart out
My heart thundered in my chest, filling my head with it's rapid fire beat. I gripped Eli's arm so hard that I nearly broke my fingers, until he growled at me, interrupting the buzzing sound filling my ears. "Sorry," I hissed under my breath, trembling before the double doors of the great hall, "I'm just a little scared." Eli moved his hand to the small of my back, pressing a kiss into my temple, and just like that, the doors are open, and we're moving forward. The low hum of chatter comes to a complete halt, even the clink of silverware stops, and everyone watches as we make our way to the kings table, the roaring of my heartbeat filling my ears again, our echoing footsteps a distant echo at the back of my mind. As we reach the kings table, I realize that only one seat is available, and counsil members are seated on the kings right, and left. Scanning the table, my stomach dips, anxiety rushing through me like electricity. No place has been prepared for me next to Eli, but one sea
Slave to the Alpha King Heebie jeebies
I fought my attacker at first, finally managing to catch a glimpse of Otto. He twisted around me, his rage blinding, and before I realized why he was twisting around me, pain exploded in my temple, dropping me to my knees for a moment, which sent the knife pressed into my neck, deeper into my flesh. Allowing my claws to extend, I slashed into Otto's leg, the pain making him drop the knife and grab my hair again. This time I saw the fist coming as it slammed into my jaw, and the taste of blood filled my mouth. Magic was long forgotten and I allowed my canines to extend, slamming my head into Otto's, forcing his neck back. Just as his neck was exposed, I moved to rip his throat out with my teeth. Otto had managed to recover his knife, and right as my teeth sank into his skin, his knife slid between my ribs. "STOP!" Eli roared, his command rolling over the room, affecting everyone but me. I could feel the blood filling my lungs, and I stumbled back, teeth still lodged in Otto's throat.
Slave to the Alpha King Journey, interrupted
A long line of black SUV's and vans filled the courtyard and the gravel drive leading up to the Castle, servants bustled about packing suitcases and trunks into some, cases of wine, honey, medical supplies, and who knows what else into others. Giselle and Diana readied our SUV, carrying out soft blankets, pillows, snacks, bottles of water, and glass bottles of iced coffee for the journey. This would be a long working trip, and Eli and I had agreed that strategy was something we needed to focus on. I was surprised, when we loaded up into the van, to find that the back was designed in the same fashion as a limo, with seats lining the walls of the vehicle, fold away lap desks and arm rests sat ready for our documents. "You know, I almost thought we would be traveling by horse and carriage, or some other bizarre method. What with you living in a castle and all." I teased. "I didn't expect to travel like modern humans.""Oh the carriages are in for repair right now, and the horses told

I trusted her.My mate, she should have been my queen, my partner in all things. Instead she used me. Abandoned me before we could even begin setting our plans in motion. For what? She made me believe she could set the past aside and put an end to this bloodshed, she worked so hard to earn my trust, hiding her true intentions. She went so far as to mark me, mate me, make me believe she could love me. I screamed, tearing apart the room, ripping sheetrock from the walls, smashing anything that could be smashed. I finished trashing the house and made my way to the forest. I could feel that she was gone, even with her shutting me out through the bond, I could tell when she was near. Following her trail to the river, I raged at the guards, how easy it was for her to escape, it could just as easily have been a rogue or mercenaries sent to kill us, and they still wouldn't have had time to stop them. Ordering everyone to meet me back at the caravan, I dressed and did what I could to regain
Slave to the Alpha King Negotiations
My heart thundered in my chest as I sprinted through the forest. Every few seconds, a mage from the quell would pop up out of nowhere, and I'd be forced to throw up a shield, or change course. There was no escaping, no recanting the terms of our agreement.It had been a week since I came to them, asking for their assistance in the fight against the vampri and the shadowmoon cult. Their terms were reasonable. That I be trained, to tap into the true power inside me, instead of grasping at the edges of my power, to have a seat on the council, and an open line of contact with each pack for apprenticeships. This was my third day practicing shields and traveling, and I was barely making any progress. My head throbbed, pain radiating through my temples as I strained to channel all my energy into traveling. A hot, searing pain jolted through my body as I slammed into a shield held by one of the mages. Shit. I'd allowed my own shields to drop, and still wasn't able to travel more than once pe
