I love going this way through the forest, theres so much more vegetation growing on this side of the land. The trees seem greenier and more full of life, like it's constantly springtime in this area. There are many other paths leading up to the waterfalls and going this way is an extra ten minutes on top of the usual twenty-five... but going this way is absolutely worth it!
Shawn and Michelle always bared the extra time for me knowing it's my second favorite place and especially when we all get to peer across the countless beauty of the moon glory flowers. They only open up during the night and when the moon is at it's fullest and brightest. The field looks like its, littered with stars across the forest floor. The moonlight reflects off the white of the flowers just perfectly causing an ethereal glow in the dark. The glowing white light with its sweet smell of honey suckle causes you to feel heavenly in a dreamy wonderland. I could sit there for hours just marveling in it's beauty and I know they both would sit with me too.
As we near the top of the hill. Rushing water and laughter can be heard. Even though I have been here countless times before. The double waterfalls are always a wonderous sight. At the top of the cliff the flow of the river breaks into two streams of water cascading down through the green and orangish mossy rocks, forming into three tiers of smaller ponds overlapping each other, until it forms a blanket of water at its end, rushing down into the giant pool of water below.
In the first pond at the top. You are surrounded by these white and pink lilies that seem to sparkle with the iridescent mushrooms scouring in between. The middle pond has these shimmering rocks that line the bottom that cause a silvery light, that makes it seem as if theres tiny mermaid scales twinkling down below in the water. The last pond closest to the big pool of water, is extremely colorful almost like stained glass. Except there are small smooth colorful pebbles that line the pond. Which reflects a rainbow like appearance across the cascading blanket of water during the day.
This place holds so many wonderful secrets that I'm sure have not all been revealed. Each time I come here, theres always something so spectacular to discover. It's as if the waterfalls only let you see what it wants you too...
Michelle is the first to dive into the water, soon joined by Cole, getting as far away from April and Jessica as they grow near. Before they can get any closer. We hear hard, fast, foot steps against the ground, moving quicker and quicker from behind Jessica. We all watch in amusement, as two rough hands quickly grab her waist, yanking her backwards and flipping her in one fluid motion, up onto Trenton's shoulder as she screams! " Put me down! Right now! Trenton Michaels! You scared me half to death!" As she starts giggling incessantly, while hitting his chest! " But babe, you know I love touching your sexy body and I couldn't resist with you wearing that delectable dress, showing all your goodies perfectly!" He says, as he begins to give her feather like kisses down her neck. Causing more fits of giggles. "Ok! Ok! You two! Go find a tree would ya!" April utters to the horny love birds. Followed by more squeaks and giggles from her friend.
We watch as the two of them make there way over to the circle of rocks, that were placed years back for seating around the bonfire. All the sudden, theres a loud thwack! That rings out from Trenton's hand slapping across Jessica's ass! Making her scream out "Trenton!" then a low chuckle sounds from him. All of us just laugh and shake our heads.
I suddenly feel fingers lightly brush across the back of my neck, causing small goosebumps down my arms and legs. Soon I hear that baritone voice I've come to enjoy all these years. " Hello beautiful, I've missed you!" I turn around gazing up at his amazingly handsome face, with those one of a kind golden ocherous eyes staring back at me, with a lop sided smile pulling at his lips. "I have missed you to handsome." I reply. " So where have you been all day?" I inquire. "I've been helping my dad again, with training of the younger pups. For some reason, none of them want to listen to him. So he called me in as back up again! Apparently they don't have a problem listening to me." He says chuckling heartedly. "Probably, because they all know how excellent of a fighter you are! Plus your dad is quite the pushover.... I don't think he's realized yet, that this generation isn't like his or ours. They really don't want to do any kind of hardwork, unless they are rewarded!" I say shaking my head at the thought...
Ian and I slowly walk over to our normal place, over looking the vast forest of tall pine trees below. While discussing today's events. We chose this spot together because of the fire flies twinkling around with green, yellow and blue flashes of light, making it shimmer and shine like small pieces of glitter are falling down from the sky.
Ian had accidentally swallowed one a few months back while we were in our wolf forms, causing him to choke and sputter harshly for a few minutes. The funniest part about what had happened, was he had squished it slightly in his mouth, making it squirt out some of its luciferin juices on his tongue, making it glow bright green, for a few hours after. Making me laugh hysterically, everytime he went to talk, seeing his mouth all glowy and green. His response was " It didn't taste bad.... But I would prefer not to have a mouth, that looks like a glow stick!" Making me laugh even more at the sight before me!
That's one thing I loved about Ian, is he made everything so simple and easy around him, even though this world was very cruel to him! Ian's mother, had been the same care free spirit until the day she was kidnapped by the fairies. His mom wasn't a werewolf. She was a human mate and fairies sought out werewolf mates like her, because their offspring produced a longer life force. Giving the fairies the magic needed to help keep them younger looking, while adding more years to their life. Even though they hypnotized other pregnant humans. A human pregnant with a werewolf pup. Was the divine treasure of youth. That's why fairies fed upon the younlings. It gave them a longer life, giving them the opportunity to live thousands of years, instead of the hundreds that most other creatures lived.
When his mother was taken, he was only six years old. She was pregnant with his baby sister at the time of the abduction. His mother and three other human mates were kidnapped from our pack, right before each of the women were to give birth. Alpha Brent had took six of our best trackers and warriors, along with my father. But the rescue had taken longer then anyone predicted it would. Ian's little sister had been murdered with two of the other female pack members babies.
They were able to rescue his mother and all three other women. But only one of the infant pups survived. Ian's mom was sooo guilt ridden, with pain and anger from not being able to protect and save her daughter. That she took her own life, four months after everyone returned home. Ian's father, buried himself in work and anything else he could do, to not be at home. Trying to distract himself from the torturous pain from losing his mate and child. Ian was left alone to fend for himself through all the anguish of not only losing his baby sister, but his mother as well.
He is one of the strongest people I know physically and emotionally. At times I believe that's why he always cracks jokes, as his way of brushing any feelings away. " Hey Artic! Do you know what kind of underwear clouds wear?" I chuckle lightly as I say " No, I do not know what kind of underwear clouds wear, Ian." "Thunder wear!" He says in a rumbling voice, before laughing and myself as well. But then again, I think Ian enjoys telling cheesey jokes! He's completely and utterly the biggest dork! " Ian, you are the cheesiest person in the universe!" "And you, love every minute you spend with my cheesey face!" He tells me, making us both giggle.
I do love all the moments, I spend with him! But I won't ever tell him that! He already has a big enough complex about himself as it is. But I guess, why wouldn't you, when you looked like him and always had girls swooning over you... Ian was everything a girl could want or dream for. He was devilishly handsome at 6'5 with his golden ocherous eyes, that resembled a field of sunflowers, his soft coal black hair, that only helped his eyes pop more. A beautiful smile of pearly white teeth and a small dimple on his left cheek, an amazing muscular build, especially his back and shoulder muscles, I enjoyed ogoling at! With his obnoxiously sweet personality. He was the total package!
Even though he had girls screaming for his attention. He only had eyes for me, no matter who tried to persuade him. I don't know if Ian and I are mates and it hurts my heart to think, that there could be a chance another girl is ment to capture his. I pray to the moon goddess every night to let our fates be intertwined!
But until I turn eighteen.... I will not know one hundred percent. Ian is still seventeen, at least for another month. He told me, he hopes that he'll be able to feel if we have that bond between us, because I know it'll shatter him just as much as me! If the moon goddess says we are not ment for each other... As we're sitting in comfortable silence leaning on each other watching the fire flies, we hear Shawn yelling "Trenton! Don't you fucking dare!"
Ian and I stand up quickly! Running down towards the last area we seen Shawn hanging out with April. As we get closer we see Shawn flying in the air into the water! Making a huge tidal wave splashing out covering April head to toe in water! Causing her to cuss and glower at Trenton, before he pushes her in backwards! " Oh my God Trenton! Why did you do that to April!" Jessica yells! She goes to help her friend climb out of the water, only to be pushed in herself! Along with April again by Trenton!Trenton was the most mischievous person we all knew and had ever met. You had to walk on egg shells around him, cause you never knew what was going to happen with him near you. He could be calm and collective or out right an ass and he didn't care at who's expense it was! As long as he was having fun! I hear Shawn calling him a "Dick!" as he climbs out of the water. Shawn turns to Trenton and says " Better watch your back bro!" Trenton just waves his hands in the air like brin
"Artic, I'm going to go check out the triplets secret hide out first, make sure they aren't hiding from our parents, trying to get a glimpse of the fight and then make my way up by the library." I hear Michelle say through the mind link. "Okay, I will meet you at the library after I check out the day care and school. After we meet up, we can head towards the outer neighborhoods making our way towards the safe houses.""April, Jessica can you two please head to the strip mall to check the stores out, making sure no one is hiding in the stores and then head to the gazebos by the Palace. Hopefully Sam didn't take one of his nap breaks and is sleeping through the breach!"That teenage boy could sleep through an air raid like it was an everyday occurrence... "Ughh.. Sure Sar-aah... Even though I should be giving you orders! Given I out rank you!!" " April right now it's not about Rank! It's about making sure members of OUR! pack are safe!"" Yeah, whatever!, le
I come crashing down ontop of the book shelf. Groaning from the impact on my right shoulder. Moving as fast as I can, I dart my way back through the shelves of books heading to the front of the library. Trying to get him as faraway from Michelle and Mrs. Honey for there chance to flee. The Vampire's voice echos through the air " You can run all you want little wolfie, but you can't hide from me!" Fast paced foot steps can be heard on the the wood flooring, followed by another loud crash of shelves falling into one another. I'm about to make a dash through the heavy bronze doors.When I am hit from the side sending me flying into the dark brown oak tables. I hear a low menacing " Tsk, Tsk, little wolfie, I thought you came to play with me...?" Jumping to my feet, I raise my eyes to meet his. Once our gaze is locked upon each other, it's as if a jolt of electricity runs through my body paralyzing all my movements. I watch as what I felt course through my body, start
Ian had found me sleep walking through our town, while he was walking home from border patrol that night. He called out to me only to have his words fall on deaf ears. So he followed me until I finally came to a stop, standing in the exact spot he had found me in a few days before in the library. Staring in the direction of the back door. Approaching me, calling my name once more, to try and wake me from the illusion I was in, only to be met with tears of panic, falling from my artic blue eyes, screaming " I can't find you! Where are you!? I'm here! Please just come back!"Ian told me, he held me closer then he ever had in the past, trying to sooth the sorrow that leaked from my body, shaking and swallowing me to my core. But those words he spoke never found the relief they were intended to give. Nothing seemed to take away the pain and sadness I was being consumed from. I would cry until I fell into unconsciousness. He carried me back to my room, placing me on my bed e
Those beautiful artic blue eyes, are all I see everytime I close my own. They are the most magnificent shade of blue I have ever seen in my life. I have looked into so many different colors of eyes, on so many faces. But none as unique as hers. Those beautiful orbs dug deeper and deeper into my soul with every lasting stare. Her euphorious voice when she told me her name "Sarah" my mind sings out to me. The beautiful she wolf my dreams invade me with. One month has come and gone sense I laid my eyes upon her, in that old dusty library. I crave to feel her soft, smooth skin below my finger tips, to be close to her again. To breath in her intoxicating scent once more of sweet honey suckle and blue berries.I am trapped between the North Eastern border of her pack and much to close to the edge of the White elves forest. My sister and I found this secret tunnel. We were running as fast as we could getting ready to cross over the border of the wolves territory. When it was l
Books and more books, is all that seems what my life has become. Ughh! I have read sooo many scriptures about vampires that at times the words on the pages, turn into one big jumbled up mess as I'm reading. I've gone as far fetched as reading stories about them having glow in the dark fangs. Even searching through the internet. I clicked on anything my browser popped up with that had the word vampires in it. All this reading and searching seems futile.The only book I haven't looked over is, the one on vampires and their mates. What could I possibly read in there, that has anything to do with me. Mates of different species was hardly ever heard of and if by chance it came about. Almost instantly they would reject each other, because of differences in life styles and long lasting fueds stemming from hundreds of years ago.There's no way he could be my mate right? Could he? I ask myself... Arghh! This whole situation is making me go bonkers literally!I hardly sle
I spun in my chair, turning away from Ian, it was one of the hardest things I've ever done. I know now, that what we had was never true love. But contempment, just buying our time from the inedible. We weren't ment to be together forever. You don't run away from those you truly love, when things get hard. You stay and figure it out with each other.Ian sat there and begged me to say anything to him. To scream and shout at him, to show him just how angry I was with him. He said " He would rather me, tell him to fuck off and die, instead of nothing, no glances, no words, just utter silence."What Ian didn't know was, I wasn't mad at him anymore. I was filled with complete sadness. Hurt from being left alone, when I needed him most. Tear strucked with sorrow of what the future might hold for us moving forward. I don't know if I'll ever be able to forgive him for letting me go through all this on my own.When all I wanted was to be held by him, my rock, the one pers
I can't do this anymore! I can't watch her slowly dwindle away just like her! If she only knew how my heart breaks into pieces everytime my eyes lay upon her. Seeing the light leaving her beautiful eyes. The vibrant artic blue that was once there, now fading into a smokey navy blue. Everything is happening the same way it did with her. I can't stay with her and watch as history repeats itself! I won't stand by and watch another person I love more then anything in this world be taken away from me again! Nightmares, I thought that were locked away, forgotten long ago, plague my dreams at night. Seeing her colorless face floating in the water of their bathroom tub. The color red surrounding her body, as the water over ran the sides covering the floor with her blood. Her breath taking golden eyes now cold and motionless, void of all the joy and love they use to give. The body I knewn as my safe place full of hugs and laughter. Now covered in huge gnashes covering her chest, reve
