The Fated Queen

Lily pinched the bridge of her nose and folded her arms across her chest. "I'm sorry, what?" She repeated her question to the strangers at her vacation home. "A descendant? Of whom?" "Oh, well..." Willow brushed her fingers through her short black hair. "It's rather complex to explain." She lifted her gaze to Lily. She could see the regret flicker in them for a moment. "This wasn't how I hoped to share this with you." "What she is trying to say..." Dante rested a hand on Willow's shoulder and gave it a reassuring squeeze. "She's sorry, along with the rest of us, to have dropped in unannounced and dropped this bombshell on you." He glanced over at Jayce. "You know I do not have any ill intentions towards you or your family. None of us do." "I hate to disagree with you." Jayce growled softly while he maintained eye contact with Aiden. Aiden returned the glare in kind. "This will not be some Alpha versus Alpha fight off, is it?" Amira asked as she looked at them. When the two Werewo

"Mom, do we have to go back now?" Myra whined. "We didn't even swim with the sharks yet." The Wolf pup pouted with disappointment. Lily smiled sadly at her daughter as she zipped up her luggage. "I know, sweetie, but something came up and your father and I need to handle it right away." Myra hopped up on the bed she finished making. "Is it about this Karmina lady?" "And how do you know about her?" Lily asked as she rested her hands on her hips. "You weren't eavesdropping, were you?" "No." Myra avoided Lily's gaze. Lily inclined her head and continued to stare at her silently. Myra finally looked at her and rolled her eyes. "Okay, I did. It's not like you all were quiet, anyway." "Myra." Lily said disappointedly. She looked at her daughter for a moment. She reached out and ran her fingers through her blonde hair with black streaks. Unnatural to many, but Lily adored it. She loved how different the children were compared to other pups. Was that another reason for her identity cris

He tossed back the shot glass; the liquid burned his throat. "I know I agreed to go along with hearing them out, but what they claim is still ridiculous." He grumbled to himself. He stood beside the large tree that played as a centerpiece to his garden. One of Lily's favorite places to go when she desired serenity. Now she retreated to the piano room and locked the door to refrain him from entering. The declaration where she is this Angel, Werewolf and Witch hybrid creature overwhelmed her and she instantly shut down. He couldn't blame her, though, and he had grown to give her the space necessary to process such news. But this. This sort of thing he wanted to be with her on. To know what was going inside her head. Yet, only one figure in her life can and he's barely spoken up since this whole ordeal started. "You've been awfully quiet, Nox." He leaned his back against the tree. "If you don't speak up, I'm coming in." Still rather impatient, aren't you? "Only because it's about L

Jayce sat back in his chair as he surveyed the group closely. The ice clinked in his whiskey glass as he brought it to his lips. Dante sat poised, with one leg crossed over the other. He was a defined gentleman to the letter with his black slacks and dark red button up. His dark hair had grown a little since the last time he saw him. The golden eyes shimmered as he took a sip from his own whiskey glass. Though, being a Vampire, he most likely wanted something else to drink instead. He didn't know the man well enough, but he was respectable and well versed in the world's knowledge. Amongst the group all together, he was the most trustworthy. He shifted his gaze to Aiden next, who filled his whiskey glass to the brim and practically downed it. There wasn't anything good to say about the Wolf. He's a Rogue. A defiant Alpha. On top of all of that, blood related them to one another. They couldn't be anymore different, though. The man sat with dirty jeans and work boots with a black fitte

Jayce! Wake up! A crash startled him awake. He bolted upright, his hand landed in the space Lily had been sleeping in. A light blinded his vision from the open doorway into the lounging area. With that light, he heard gusts of wind as if a tornado had been set off in the other room. It's Lily! I can't reach her! Nox panicked. He had never heard his Wolf speak with such fear in his voice. Jayce rolled out of bed and got to the door when he met a strange scene. There was a heavenly light centered in the middle of the room. Within that light, black text spiraled around like a whirlwind vortex in the air. Below it all, with the book open in her hands, was Lily. "Lily!" He shouted to her, but she didn't respond. The wind grew stronger, but he refused to standby. He forced himself into the wind. His claws extended as he dropped to his knees and stabbed his claws into the floor to keep him steady. Jayce looked around for anything to knock the book out of her hands when the door to the
