Hunter-
Hesitating briefly, I watched the rogue carefully, my gaze shifting to the Rogues that still remained. I wondered if this was all that was left or not, I would have Caleb look into it. If this was all that was left, then keeping them at bay wouldn’t be an issue. For now, I did need to know what was going on. I knew I needed to shift in order to speak with him, but I didn’t trust them.
“Caleb, do not shift.” I ordered my Beta, just as I shifted, to face the rogue.
“Speak.” I instructed, keeping Ace accessible.
“We no harm.” The rogue spoke.
“What business do you have with my pack?” I demanded, as I also felt a growl vibrate my chest.
“We protect the girl.” He insisted.
I had a feeling that there was a correlation between them and Brett, but this time I didn’t feel too keenly about accepting them into my pack. One rogue was going to be troublesome enough until we found out more. Too many would cause chaos. I was all about
Kyra- Spending a couple of hours in the library, I was beginning to lose hope, was there really such thing as a Champion? If it really was an archaic tradition, how much of what Caleb said was accurate? Looking through the stack of books I had pulled from the shelves, I paused on one that read ‘Myths or Legends?’. I wasn’t sure if the book would tell me much, but for some reason, I was drawn to it. Picking it up, I started flipping through the book and landed on a page that explained the myths and legends of Champions. I started reading, finding that Caleb had been truthful, but there was so much more information. I was glad to see that when a Champion pledges themselves, that if the one they serve dies, they die, was just a myth. Theoretically, if I agreed, I would be able to link with him, almost as if we were in the same pack. To be honest, I wasn’t sure how I felt about that, I had never linked with anyone other than Alexia. The only downfall to having a
Hunter- When the meeting had concluded, I felt better about the situation. Now that everyone knew what was going on, it was as if a weight had been lifted from my shoulders. Just as I had expected, everyone had been shocked and many had questions, but everyone seemed to be in agreement to protect Kyra. Caleb had informed me that he has kept Brett with him at all times and didn’t see a reason to keep watching him. Apparently, Brett was turning out to be very good with kids, rather helpful, and even a decent fighter. Caleb had no real concerns pertaining to Brett. I told Caleb to keep on him, at least for a couple more days so we could be sure. I had looked forward to seeing Kyra, though Lucy had informed me that she had gone out. With that, I took my supper into my office and spent most of the evening there. Looking at my clock, I realized that it was getting late, it was nearly ten at night. Calling it a night, I headed out of the office, to go find Kyra.&nbs
Kyra- “Come on Kyra, you have to focus, lets try again.” Hunter told me for what seemed like the hundredth time. It had been almost two weeks since Brett became my Champion, and our bond has gotten stronger. He has become probably my closest friend. I have learned a lot through the bond and one being that I was feeling everything Brett felt physically. It made his training almost impossible because every time he was hit I felt the pain ten times over. Hunter and Caleb had said that it shouldn’t be like that, I should only feel it mildly and not enough to cause me to fall to my knees in excruciating pain. It had taken a couple of days, but we learned that he was drawing too much of my energy. Currently, Hunter, Brett, Caleb, and I were trying to get me to put up a mental block. It was similar to being able to block out a mind link, but since I never did that, this was all new territory for me. Even my thoughts are completely exposed to Brett, and I rea
Hunter- “Now open your mind, let Brett in through the link.” I told Kyra. “Now, visualize a glass wall between your mind and his.” I explained, as soon as she was linked, my voice raised so she can hear me over the link. I gave her a few minutes and repeated my words a couple of times, just in case she didn’t hear me the first time. “Now visualize the glass becoming darker, slowly, until you can no longer see through it.” I explained. I watched her eyes, waiting for them to return to normal, signifying that it worked. I once again repeated myself a couple of times, just in case and after a few minutes passed, there was no change. I gave her more time, but after another few more minutes, I was just about to repeat the process when she came out of it and her eyes returned to normal. “It didn’t work.” Kyra said, her voice disheartened. “It is okay, we can try again, I may have another idea.” I told her, trying to hide my disappoin
Hunter- We were laying on the couch, having finished eating, and were watching the movie. I kept glancing over at her and she seemed almost like she was a completely different person than when she first arrived. I have no longer seen that scared girl that would jump when people would walk into the room. It no longer seemed like at the wrong move she would run away. She had grown so much in just a short time. There were many things we didn’t know yet, but now it didn’t seem so inaccessible. Granted she still had her moments, but they were few and far between now. She no longer was afraid to ask for anything and she had no problem telling you where to stick it if she didn’t like something. I couldn’t wait to see her come out of her shell completely and see the woman she will become without anything holding her back. The sound of her laughter filled the room as she watched the movie and my heart fluttered in my chest. We were watching a comed
Kyra- I woke up sprawled out over Hunter. Oddly, I didn’t immediately get off him, I continued to lay where I was, knowing this would be probably the last time I would ever be held by him. I don’t know when it happened or even why, but he has become genuinely important to me. When he was around, I felt myself relax more and I no longer felt as lonely. Even Brett didn’t make me feel that way, it was nice being around Brett, just not in the same way as when I was with Hunter. Every time we were around each other, I tried to hide it because I knew he thought I was his mate and soon I would have to leave. I may not know how I feel about him, but just thinking of leaving breaks my heart. Snuggled against him with my arm and leg draped over him, I didn’t want to ever leave. If I was a normal girl, maybe I could stay here and be with him like he wanted, but I am not normal and I am starting to think I will never be normal. I was done running away from who I
Hunter- Once we made it to school, Kyra had opted to go find students and teachers, to learn more about Caleb. She had insisted on going to the classes she had, after the first time I enrolled her. We agreed to meet in the cafeteria around lunchtime and I would help her come up with her prank for Caleb. I was happy to see she was taking the initiative. I tried to focus on work, but I kept getting interrupted by Cecilia trying to talk to me through the link and finally walking into the office and sitting on my desk. “Are you done punishing me?” She asked, with a pout. “Get off my desk.” I told her, not bothering to look up. “Fine.” Cecilia huffed as she moved to sit in one of the chairs in front of the desk. “Do I have to go back there again after training?” She asked, trying to sound seductive. “Have you learned your lesson?” I asked her, still not bothering to look up, as I continued to go over some emails. “I have. I
Caleb- “Dude, this is so boring.” I spoke into the trees, with no one to hear me. “It is like I am on shit detail.” I groaned. As the Beta of the pack, you would think that I wouldn’t have to do these patrols anymore. But no here I am stuck doing this, instead of my own duties. Okay so maybe I can understand why I am here, with the threat of someone after Kyra we need to be vigilant. But this still sucks. Don’t get me wrong, I adore Kyra, I look forward to the day she becomes Luna of the pack and I think she is the cutest thing I have ever laid my eyes on. I wish I could take away her pain but then again, it has probably made her stronger. She finally told me about her past last week and I could understand her a lot more. She is fun to antagonize too, I enjoy seeing how she responds to certain things, it is just too funny. I wished I had been so lucky to get her as my own fated mate. Hunter is like a brother to me, but I swear I will knock his
