[Serenity’s POV]

“Do you think Uncle William is okay?”

I stare up into Maverick’s dark eyes while his arms tighten around me, pulling me closer to try to comfort the anxiety that I’m feeling.

Two days had already passed since Uncle William went back to Crystal Fang, and even though there was no word on how he was, there was also no word that something happened, which in the end was a good sign, but I just couldn’t seem to calm down no matter how many times I told myself that everything was goin

  • The Alpha Princess' Bodyguard.   EPILOGUE 3: From Death To A Second Chance

    [Elise’s POV]I stare at the crone as she watches me with a look of amusement, and I can’t help but wonder what exactly it is that she is planning.“How can you send me away without any answers?” I demand. “You’ve done nothing but talk in riddles.”“Have I?” She asks, cocking her head to the side. “I think I’ve been pretty clear this whole time. You said that you didn’t wish to go back to the time when fate was changed because you thought that it would be too painful for someone, so I’m giving a chance to go back to a different time.”“But what time is that?”“You should know that better than anyone.” She tells me. “You’re the one who cheated fate and managed to connecting your life with that child’s. So, you should know when that happened.”But I don’t, I think silently, realizing that even though this woman was supposed to be all seeing and all knowing she didn’t even realize that I didn’t possess my memories. I don’t know how this happened or how I came to be like this.“Don’t thin

  • The Alpha Princess' Bodyguard.   Epilogue 2: When You Cheated Fate

    [Elise’s POV]I stare at Tatiana in confusion, but she says nothing more. Instead, she claps her hands with Maria who stands on the opposite side of her, and they both begin to chant. As they do, I feel the energy shift once more, and as it does, it feels almost like something solid pressing against my skin.It’s uncomfortable to say the least, but since I was told to not fight it, I do as instructed. I don’t move, I don’t fight, and I watch as light begins to slowly appear around me, forming a separate circle from the one that Tatiana created.“This,” I hiss, realizing what was happening. “A portal.”“Do not fight,” Tatiana reminds me, her glowing eyes coming to rest on me. “Allow what will be to be.”Nodding, I clench and unclench my fists as the light slowly starts to close in around me and slither along my body, and when it reaches my throat, I brace myself for what will happen.“Good luck,” Maria tells me. “Please, save them.”“Yes,” I say as the light continues it’s ascent, and

  • The Alpha Princess' Bodyguard.   Epilogue 1: Eventually Let Go

    [Elise’s POV]“Then I need to find this crone.”My voice rings out confidently as I speak, and I know that that is the next plausible step for me, but before that, I would need to find another witch to help us. Did we even know of another witch?“The sooner the better.” I continue. “Do any of you know of another witch?”“Tatiana,” Tristan murmurs, turning his gaze to his mothers. “She’s still within the packhouse, correct?”“She is,” Maria confirms. “Due to the seriousness of the situation at the time she stuck around for her own safety.”“Then we just need to go to this Tatiana.” I say. “Where is she right now?”“In her room, probably.” Tristan shrugs. “I can lead the way if you want…”“No,” I snap. “You are going to stay here and take care of Denali along with Jolene.”“I don’t need his help.” Jolene huffs. “He will only get in the way.”“Who will get in the way?” Tristan counters. “If that is anyone, it will be you.”“No, you,” Jolene argues, and I roll my eyes.“Maria,” I say leav

  • The Alpha Princess' Bodyguard.   Another Way

    [Elise’s POV]I grow quiet and wait while Tristan and Jolene stare at me. From the looks on their faces, it is clear that they are confused about what it is that I am asking.“The crone,” I repeat, wondering if I mispronounced or stuttered. “Do either of you know anything about a crone?”“The crone,” Tristan says slowly. “Is the old wise witch. Some consider her the mother of the witches, but she is nothing more than an elder who holds knowledge of all.”Nodding, I take in what Tristan is telling me while wondering why that woman who called herself my mother would suggest I look for such a person.“Why are you asking?” Tristan asks. “Do you have business with the crone?”“Maybe,” I admit. “Do you know how to find her?”Knowing about her was one thing, but knowing where to locate her, was something else entirely, and honestly, if he didn’t know where to find her then I still didn’t have much to go on.Like you have anything. The small voice in the back of my head tells me. You don’t ev

  • The Alpha Princess' Bodyguard.   The Crone

    [Elise’s POV]I stand in place, confusion, fear, and something so much deeper rushing through me as I watch Tristan try to get Denali to wake up.“Is she…” I whisper, and Tristan shoots me a look.“Please, just do as I asked you.”For a moment I don’t move. It’s like my feet are rooted to the floor, but when Tristan gives me a look of desperation, I finally turn and begin to head toward the room’s exit.“Jolene,” I murmur when I reach the hall. “Where would Jolene be…”Honestly, I didn’t know her well enough to know where she would hang out aside from…“Infirmary.” I announce, turning and beelining for that place. “Please be there.” I mutter, moving as quickly as I can. “Please….Jolene!” I gasp as I burst into the infirmary and with luck I find her sitting at her desk.“Elise?”“Jolene!” I hiss, rushing forward and grabbing her hand. “Please! You have to come with me now.”“What’s wrong?” Jolene asks, jumping up from her place. “What’s going on?”I don’t respond to her question, inste

  • The Alpha Princess' Bodyguard.   Shattering Soul

    [Maverick’s POV]‘Stay with me.’I keep repeating these three words as Serenity’s mouth moves, ripping the skin from where she has managed to get ahold of me.‘Just stay with me.’‘I can’t…’ She murmurs and I can almost feel her very essence disappearing.‘SERENITY!’ I roar, but with each passing minute she becomes fainter and fainter and then it’s almost like a candle being extinguished as her essence disappears completely and I’m left with nothing but this puppet I’m fighting. ‘SERENITY!’ I repeat, again and again, but with each passing minute I’m met with nothing but silence.“Sorry,” Ellie laughs as the wolf that is no longer Serenity jumps on me. “It seems that she was spiritually weaker than I thought.”She wasn’t. I counter silently. She isn’t. You’re the reason she isn’t here.I’m going to fucking kill her. This only promise continues to spur me, making me fight with everything that I am and when what sounds almost like a stampede starts approaching, I feel a wave of relief. H

    [Elise’s POV]I watch as Serenity’s cheeks turn a bright pink while embarrassment flashes in her eyes. Oh, I could almost guess what, or rather, who this involved, and since I was pretty bored having to play student day to day, I could really use some entertainment.“Go on,” I announce, dropping down

    [Serenity’s POV]“Spell it out?”Frowning, I try to make sense of what it is that Maverick is getting at. Was he talking about his duty to protect me? I was more than aware of that, but for some reason, this seemed like something totally different.“Yes, little fool.” Maverick sighs, giving me a gentle

    [Serenity’s POV]I keep my gaze fixed on Maverick’s retreating form. Even from where I sit, I can feel his emotions slamming into me, and although I want to comfort him and tell him that whatever it is that he is thinking is wrong, I don’t move. Instead, I continue to watch until he heads out of the

  • The Alpha Princess' Bodyguard.   A Realization

    [Maverick’s POV]I rush down the hall, my irritation growing. Because of my discussion with William, I was running late for class, and I was certain that Serenity would be worried about me.“Dammit.”As I move, William’s question races through my mind. Why was he even asking me such a thing when he was
