~Aurelia~

"How did I miss this?" I said, examining Callie's face, turning it from side to side. A fresh bruise had formed right on her cheekbone.

"It's just that one. It's okay." She tried to make me feel less guilty.

Princess Amara had terrible temper issues. Callie got smacked in the face because the spoiled princess couldn't find me the minute she opened her eyes. I was protected from her abuse because Argus had my back. But poor Callie didn't have that privilege.

I begged Argus many times about protecting her too but he didn't care. 'You should be happy that I don't touch her, only because she's your friend,' was his jerkwad kind of response. Callie hated them all with a passion, and I didn't blame her.

We both had no one to call as parents until Nana's daughter, the head housemaid, adopted us. But I have been living in the palace for as long as I could remember. These were my people, and I was attached to them.

  • The First Alpha   Chapter 13 | The Supernaturals

    ~Dominic~It all happened right in front of my eyes, and yet, I refused to believe it. One moment, I was looking through my bedroom window at Aurelia receiving a letter and reading it, and the next moment, she was opening the gate to leave. I bolted out of the house to stop her, but I was stunned to see her picked up by someone really fast... so fast that it was all a blur.I reached the gate the very next second, but she was high up in the sky. She appeared to be leaving willingly, but who was that?"What was that?" My mother came out the next instant."I don't know. She just took off with someone, by air." I shrugged in frustration.I was extremely restless from inside. I could suddenly sense that she was in danger."I got a very disturbing vision just now. Are you sure she wasn't taken away by force?" My mother's visions weren't helping the situation."I am not sure. She looked up at the sky and walked out of that gate exp

  • The First Alpha   Chapter 12 | Abducted

    ~Aurelia~His words cut through me like a knife."We are a lot more alike than you realize, Dominic. I grew up on the run too, not physically like you, but I am in hiding as well. I think I can understand what you have been through."He didn't respond. With his eyes glued to the ceiling, I wasn't even sure if he was listening anymore."We didn't get to choose what we were born with. That doesn't mean we deprive ourselves of normal life and love. I---""I don't have a problem with who I am, whatever I am. This Royal Guard training and the recognition that I got before soldiers in their twenties and thirties did, none of that would have been possible if I was normal. I wouldn't have been able to afford this house or put good food on the table. Dylan and I were squire boys making almost nothing at fourteen." His face scrunched in annoyance before he continued."I don't want to open up old wounds. I told you way more than I intended to

    ~Dominic~Her scent assaulted me at the least expected time. Dylan and I were about a mile away from home when I picked it."Hold it!" Dylan yelled behind me, trying to catch up."See you at home," I waved my hand and raced as fast as I could.The scent was definitely getting stronger as I neared my home. What was she doing there? I had been dreaming about her a lot lately. And every dream ended with me sinking my teeth into her neck, making her bleed. What the hell was I? A vampire? Those sharp canines weren't mine.At the same time, I absolutely wanted to do it. It sounded painful for her, but I probably wouldn't rest until I left my mark on her. I guess it was symbolic of how possessive I felt about her. I wanted to rip that Prince and the other guy apart for touching her.They just danced with her. I tried to reason with myself, but there was another voice inside me that was pissed at me for taking it lightly. This voice had bee

  • The First Alpha   Chapter 10 | Revelations

    I was overjoyed at the thought of eating lunch together like a family today. Callie and I never had that fortune; we usually ate standing at a counter in the kitchen and our meals were delicious but always interrupted.The pasta was cooking in the meat and vegetable stock when I went back to the kitchen. The charmed whisk beat the eggs until nice and frothy while I slowly poured the lemon zest into it."Now, scoop out two cups of that hot broth into a separate bowl and mix the egg-lemon mixture slowly into it. Pouring this tempered mixture will stop the eggs from curdling in the hot pot."I did as she said. Callie was nowhere in sight. She was avoiding Annelise for some reason and looked very uncomfortable around her.The minute I poured the tempered egg-lemon mixture into the pasta pot, containers with dill, pepper, parsley, and salt came flying and added a bit of themselves into the pot. Dill jumped back onto the shelf first and refused to budge or make

  • The First Alpha   Chapter 9 | A Witch Named Annelise

    We stole horses harnessed to Marlo's carriage as there was no way to take any from the stable without getting caught."He will kill us!" Callie exclaimed.He was definitely going to cut me into pieces, especially because he told me almost every day since I was four to never leave the palace without him."We will come back before anyone notices. Their house is not that far." I said before taking the map out of my snack bag for her to look at."So we just have to ride alongside the woods until we come across a creek?""Hmm yeah, cross the creek and the floodplain and then turn towards the woods again before hitting the fields.""About four miles you think?""or maybe less. We can see part of that creek from the Princess's room.""It's funny they chose living so close to the woods.""I am hoping they don't turn out to be some weird dudes who bury---""Aurie, stop!"I giggled at the desperate idiots we were rig

  • The First Alpha   Chapter 8 | Stalker Much?

    ~Aurelia~Callie was down in the dumps all day."He rejected me... it was rejection at first sight! Do I look that terrible?" She did look like a raccoon right now because she didn't wash her eye makeup since last night.She looked anything but terrible. With brilliant deep-set eyes, dimpled cheeks, and luscious ruby lips, her face was so attractive that the Princess got jealous and mad half the time for that reason."Of course not! Did you rub him the wrong way about something? I mean, you are very funny but he may not b---""I was nervous, and we barely talked. The music was so loud on that side of the dance floor that I could hardly hear myself think.""I don't know what to say to you except sorry, Callie... can't make heads or tails of these two guys. They probably get a kick out of being unpredictable.""Why even approach me in the first place? I never expected him to. I just went with the flow."I felt guilty and
