The Hunter and the Rogue Alpha 26: Aiden
When Willow came to, she had a look on her face that Aiden could only describe as realization and acceptance. She blinked a few times with Dante beside her. Aiden never saw someone disappear mentally like that before, but he half expected for her to not come back looking so calm either."It all makes sense." She finally said, "Her revenge and why we are connected." Her eyes lifted to Amira's. Aiden glanced over to his Mate and recognized the glimmer of acknowledgment in hers."What did you see, my dear?" Dante asked as he tucked her hair behind her ear. Aiden followed the tuck down for a moment and noticed two dark scars on Willow's neck that he could only assume were left by Dante at some point. He felt his stomach churn for a moment as he turned his gaze away and stood a bit closer to Amira. She raised a brow at him questioningly."All that I needed to." She said as her hands rested in her lap, "I watched the day Karmina died."&
The Hunter and the Rogue Alpha 27: Amira
She watched Aiden pace back and forth at the edge of their bed. It had been a week since the devastating attack on his home. When the police arrived, Willow was able to weave and bend her magic to manipulate the memories of the officers. A candle was left unattended that got carried away. At least, that's what the report would say. In regards to the creatures that were burned in the fires, Jax and herself took care of disposing them as they should. Six feet under with silver, herbs, just about anything and everything they had at their disposal to prevent these things from rising up again. In the mean time, Amira took Aiden and Lymeria into her home above the bookstore until further plans were made. Jax left to meet up with Leyla and update her on how things turned out here. As the year was coming to a close, nothing seemed to be weighing in their favor yet."Aiden..." She called to him softly, but he continued to pace as if he didn't hear her. She let her shoulder
The Hunter and the Rogue Alpha 28: Aiden
What was I thinking?He sat on the edge of the cliff that overlooked the lake and forest below, observing his pack members building their new community. After the agreement was settled to put Godfried and his Witch in their place, he dedicated his time to their situation. Seeking advice amongst the political Wolves of the pack to see what they could obtain. With a bit of luck on their side, they managed to strike a deal and bought land just outside the city. He didn't dare ask what all went down for the deal, he was just grateful that his pack finally had a place to call home.Even now, amidst the heavy snow the Wolves were busy with their construction. Several houses were up already in a matter of a few months. As long as they had put their time and effort into it, many things could be accomplished in such a short time.Snow crunched beneath footfalls, her scent drifted on the wind to him as she stopped beside him and took a seat, he
The Hunter and the Rogue Alpha 29: Godfried
He walked the empty halls, his hands clenched at his sides as his eyes darted left to right and back again as he passed by the empty rooms. Each of his members up and left one by one over the course of a few weeks. He knew where they had gone, he just couldn't wrap his head around it still."Aiden." He growled his son's name in distaste as his fingers turned into claws and scratched along the wall. The wallpaper shredded as he tore through it, the underlining woodwork splintering off in tiny pieces. How did it all come down to this?He collected himself, his fingers turned back to normal as he adjusted his charcoal tie and flattened out the wrinkles in his royal blue suit and continued his walk to his room. Everyone else would be gone, all except for her. His only true ally in a world full of traitors."Godfried?" Her sweet voice reached his ears from the end of the corridor where she stepped out from her bed chambers. He felt his Wolf gr
The Hunter and the Rogue Alpha 30: Amira
The bolt whistled through the air before piercing deeply into the trunk of an oak tree. Amira let out a slow breath that turned into white smoke before her eyes. The sun was nearly set, long, dark shadows casted across the clearing she made into her practice field. The snow was still thick on the ground, the Wisconsin Winter nearly half way finished, yet the cold and snow only seemed to get worse. She lowered her crossbow and blew loose strands of her hair from her face before taking a look around the darkening woods. This was her personal quiet space for solo training while she gathered her thoughts about the battle that was coming. Aiden had been preoccupied with settling in his new pack members as the new Rogue Alpha, although he still grimaces at the mention of it. Jax and Leyla were on their way back from Madison to help in the fight and train with the Rogues while Lymeria..."Amira!" Lymeria's voice called out to her from behind, "I thought I'd find you here
The Hunter and the Rogue Alpha 31: Willow
She peered over to Dante's half-naked sleeping form beside her. She brushed her fingers through his dark hair and caressed his cheek. He stirred slightly, but did not wake as she crawled out of bed as slowly and quietly as possible. She stepped up to the mirror that occupied their hotel room and in the dim light of the moon that came in through the window, saw her reflection staring back at her. Willow ran her fingers over the fresh bite mark on her right breast Dante had left behind. She didn't feel fatigued like she normally did after he drank from her. It was strange, or perhaps with her new powers she inherited from Janice, she's able to withstand the effects of a Vampire's bite. She tugged on the longer strands of hair, her lips pursed as she mentally decides on a trim when her eyes shifted over to the white book on the nightstand beside her bed. The same book she always met with Hecate whenever she needed her wisdom. Except this time, she felt certain that this is where
The Hunter and the Rogue Alpha 32: Amira
The warmth of the sun surprised her as her eyes fluttered open to find herself standing in a grassy field with dandelions scattered about in all directions. The air was still chilled yet not a speck of snow in sight. She patted herself down, feeling the fabric of her clothes and the softness of her face and hands. It all felt real to her, but it also felt like a dream at the same time. She ran her fingers over the blades of grass when her she felt someone watching her. She looked around and spotted a woman dressed in an off white tunic that fell just below her mid thigh. The tunic was pulled over her right shoulder with a clasp that seemed to pin it in place. A leather belt wrapped around her waist with what looked like a thin quiver attached at her hip. On her arms were braces strapped to them with gloves that had the index and pinky finger exposed. She had what appeared to be thin leather straps wrapped around her calves, but with the grass it was difficult to tell if she was
The Hunter and the Rogue Alpha 33: Aiden
He folded his arms over his broad chest as he gazed at the sleeping Willow and Dante snuggled up on the small sofa tucked into the corner of the bookshop. When he awoke and noticed that his Mate hadn't come to bed, he grew a bit worried and came down to investigate. He wasn't expecting to find the Vampire and his partner asleep on the sofa when he came to check up on her. He inclined his head as he admired the view for just a moment of the two lovers. In their peaceful sleeping state, they appeared as an ordinary couple that happened to doze off together.Aiden peered over to the open gate to the restricted section and saw Amira slightly slouched forward while sitting upright. He shook his head, not at all surprised that she had fallen asleep in that position as he had caught her doing it once before. He walked around the desk and stood behind her while he leaned against the metal doorframe."Hey." He nudged her gently with his foot, "Sleepyhead, wake
