They were given only a night, but they made the most of it. They loved on the couch, the floor, and even managed the tiny shower. Aquina had laughed as she discovered a few new bruises from the shower experience.

Without warning, they were whisked away from their love nest and delivered onto the terrace in Egypt, just outside the kitchen. Since they had been eating breakfast, they were still in the robes that they had found after ripping most of their clothes to shreds the night before. Beecher had managed to hold onto the plate he had been devouring and now sat, still chewing. He looked around, but his plate of pancakes hadn’t made the excursion.

“Thank the goddess we weren’t delivered here thirty minutes ago,” Beecher whispered quietly, raising his eyebrows up and down devilishly at Aquina.

Aquina blushed and realized she had been upside down and naked then. That would have been quite an entrance.

The look on Katalea’s grandfather's face had been priceless when the two

  • The Hunt for Knowledge   Cryptic Orders

    The dawn brought out the songbirds and to Luca’s ear there had never been a sweeter sound. As he lay in his enormous bed, he could barely make out Zinnia’s small form amidst the blankets. He thought wryly to himself that he would have to take care not to lose her. His bedding was grey, as well as the sheets. Not because it was his favorite color, but more, it had felt like the absence of color. His life had been stark and colorless. “But no longer,” he thought as he marveled at the fast-paced beating of his new heart. “Zinnia could make it any color she wished,” he smiled so much it hurt his face. He was sure his life was about to be multicolored.His heart has never been so free and light, his energy level so amped. He wanted to run and shout from the mountain tops. He laughed at his own lovestruck thoughts. “So this is how they get the sappy lyrics in all the love songs,” he entertained the thought as he lay there playing with a purple lock of her hair.As the light rose in

  • The Hunt for Knowledge   Not so Innocent

    It seemed to Luca the celebration lasted all night. He wanted to take his little fairy back to his University apartment and finally have some alone time. The ceremony performed by Rhiannon decreed that it was now “their” University apartment. He couldn’t be happier.The others had elected to stay on campus too, although Dakari had managed with Zinnia’s help to divide the room into two seperate bedrooms for the night. Katalea had wanted to go over to the island, but all agreed that work with the prophetic book was scheduled to begin early. Both Luca and Zinnia grinned and said they’d get in as soon as they could. Everyone just laughed and snuggled a little closer to their own mate.On the walk over, Luca and Zinnia held hands, neither feeling their feet touch the ground. Luca kept running in place and stopping just to feel the joy of having a heart. It was all Zinnia could do to not burst from happiness.When Luca walked up to a door and began to enter numbers into a keypad, Zin

  • The Hunt for Knowledge   Alive

    They feasted and rested, curled up now by two’s on the sofas. Katalea thought of how far they had come, virtually all strangers the last time they were in this room. Since they were back in Egypt she had messaged her grandfather. He told her things were a little unstable on the island and probably not a great time to bring the whole group back. Instead he had a team bring the book back to the University under heavy guard. They would deal with that tomorrow. Tonight was for rest and healing.His words caused her some grief, she was homesick for the island. She lay with her head nestled on Dakari’s shoulder while he played with a lock of her hair. She wondered what the trouble was, and found herself very anxious to get back to her “regular” life. Would this quest really be over tomorrow? Across the room, she could see Zinnia getting fidgety. She was up, then down. She had checked on the food numerous times, but they had all had their fill and lay sated, waiting for her to f

  • The Hunt for Knowledge   Lycaon

    As the dust cleared, Dakari narrowed his brow and turned to his mate, “Let’s get out of here before more of his ilk show up.”Nodding, Katalea grabbed his hand, “For reals this time.”Although the transition wasn’t as smooth without Zinnia’s presence, they had thought to leave their exit route established when the others had popped out. The air was a little chillier this time and they found themselves more thrown than placed around a campfire. They were surrounded instantly by the largest werewolves either had ever seen.”Ok, so not back to the classroom in Egypt?” Katalea threw out the thought to Dakari, more of an accusation than a question.He shrugged, his face baffled as he looked around. Then he saw Beecher and the others near the front of the group. Even as they moved towards him, a path cleared. Many heads bowed in respect as they made their way to their friend. Beecher lay on his side, his breathing labored. He was still in werewolf form but clearly healing. His fur

  • The Hunt for Knowledge   Nothing But Dust

    The cairn now glowed blue. It pulsed and throbbed as if it had a heartbeat. Kaya stood, just like Katalea’s premonition, pacing, but this time she was not intently focused on the stones, she was focused on Katalea. As if waiting for her. “Can you guys see her? Am I having another vision?” Katalea questioned.“Oh, we can see her, and frankly she is terrifying….” Aquina answered, awe in her voice. The big cat kept pacing, her soft pads making no noise in the silent chamber. Her eyes never left Katatea’s.“She means you no harm,” Katalea whispered, feeling the joy of her panther overtake her. “She is me…” Katalea continued, confidence radiating in her voice, understanding now. “She never left me.”Katalea felt the longing to be one with Kaya rise up. She hadn’t realized how abandoned she had felt by her own self.Kaya’s eyes filled with anguish now. Her proud head bowed, almost in shame. “It was not my wish either,” she said, obviously hearing the cries of Katalea's heart. “It w

  • The Hunt for Knowledge   Outnumbered

    As they made their way into the higher elevation, the mountain walls became craggier, and small cave formations began. The trees here weren’t as thick, this new harder soil obviously struggled to sustain life. Ahead, a rounded archway formed, looking more like an arbor than a cave. Katalea walked through expecting to come out on the other side of the hill but instead found herself in a large open space resembling the lobby of the ice hotel. Instead of beautiful ice sculptures though, it was just rough walls. A small stack of rocks to the left looked like a cairn left behind by someone else. There were the remnants of bones, small animal bones, she presumed, that had long since stopped having a body. Still, she felt no presence of evil or danger. They heard the deep dark laugh come from behind them. Katalea stepped forward as if to shield her friends against whatever was coming. ”So valiant, young Katalea.” They could hear Hassan, but there was no one there. He laughed aga
