11 : a neutral space
Bianca went back inside the Café. She tried to convince the men outside to come with her, but they all refused. They all had to go to the same place and would travel together. As soon as she raised her head, Mat was standing in front of her, arms crossed on his chest. « Bianca, seriously… I told you not to go outside. » « I Was not outside. I was standing on the porch…. » « Bianca, you are making it difficult for me to protect you. » « Mat, you make it difficult for me to want to listen to you when you never tell me things. » A warm wind came inside the café, and Mat's frown disappeared. He released his arms and went behind his bar. He made a head sign to Bianca to encourage her to follow him. He started to make her a coffee, but she stopped him. « Are you going to poison me as soon as the truth is revealed? » He started to laugh, and she followed him, their giggles echoing in the place. « No, beautiful. I would not try to start a war by acting foolishly. Sit d

12 : First night
The night was finally here. Alpha Black was standing tall in front of the porch of the Crossroads Café. Alo was there too. He was sitting on an old rocking chair, smoking a cigarette. The older man smiled at the man waiting to meet half of his soul. He rose from his seat and showed the Alpha a necklace made with feathers and stones. « A crazy night again. Spirits are rejoicing and glowing, Alpha Black. » « What is that ? » the low voice said, similar to a growl. « This will allow your wolf to go inside the café. » Old Al answered. Alpha Black stared blankly at the jewelry. His wolf was gigantic, and he worried that his massive form would scare his mate all day long. That was not how he was supposed to present his wolf to her for the first time, but he knew he was the one who broke a rule first, and he had to accept the consequences. He could hear the whimpers of his beast in his head. « This thing will never be able

13 : behind a wolf hides a man
_Why did Mate stop moving ?_ « I don't know… » answered Alpha Black to his beast. _ Do something !_ Little whimpers started to rise in his head. « What do you want me to do, buddy? » Black tried to calm him. _Mate is leaving! Follow Mate! Stick to Mate !_ « It's ok. Look, she is not leaving us. She just went behind the bar. Chill. » They followed her and sat on their hind legs as Bianca talked aloud to herself. « _ Qu'est-ce que Je dois faire ? C'est de la folie ! » (What should I do ? This is crazy !*) she said, switching unconsciously to french. She opened the fridge and took the milk bottle. She grabbed a glass but stopped. She then proceeded to take a bowl and stopped again. « Je n’ai même pas la certitude que ce soit un loup ou que ces histoires de loups garous soient vraies ! » (I am not even sure that it is a wolf or if these werewolves' stories are true! » She turned on her heels and faced the unidentified cre

14 : Augustin
Bianca woke up. Her eyes were instantly searching for Mister Wolf. She could not remember when she fell asleep or when the black wolf left the Café. She stood up, surprised to see herself covered by a thick blanket. « Was everything only a dream? » She thought. She folded the blanket and checked the hour on the massive wooden clock on the wall. As soon as her eyes could see the numbers, the back door opened on Mat. «Morning, beautiful Bianca ! »he said with a charming smile. He maintained the door open with his back, letting his sister Aiyana enter with Rosy between her arms. « Good morning! Oh la la, thank you, Aiyana ! I did not even realize I fell asleep on the couch yesterday night! » Bianca said while grabbing Rosy and showering her with kisses. « No worries, Bianca. I… tried to bring her back yesterday, but Crossroads Café forbade me to enter… » Aiyana said with caution. Bianca raised her head and put a hand on Rosy's back. « Magic? » She asked. « Mag

15 : get your things
"A what?" asked Bianca, half choking up. She had taken a sip of coffee just as Mat had revealed the identity of his longtime friend. " Un vampire, ma délicieuse Bianca. (*A vampire, my delicious Bianca" Augustin replied seductively. Then he patted her back to help her regain normal breathing and placed a kiss on her cheek when she finally calmed down. Bianca had a start but remained close to him. "So he doesn't scare you more than that?" Aiyana asked, incomprehension visible on her face. "Euh non" Bianca replied. She scratched her cheek. She had the strange impression of having sinned by letting him kiss her, and looked at this man she had known for so many years. "Augustin is not the kind of person who enjoys terrorizing others or sucking their blood..." The vampire placed a hand over his eyes and laughed softly. He gracefully took a seat on one of the bar chairs between Bianca and Aiyana and tapped the counter. "A drink, my good man!" he said to Ma

16 : Beta Duncan
Bianca crossed her arms over her chest and kept silent for a few moments, staring at Augustin. "Quoi? (*What?), "asked the vampire at a loss. "Augustin, I think you forget why Emmanuelle, Rosy, and I came to America. "she replied calmly. "I'm grateful for the help you're offering, but I'm not moving from here until I know where Emmanuelle is." The vampire walked gracefully toward Bianca. He ran a hand through his hair and leaned forward to look at her. "I at least want you and Rosy to stay close to me while we wait." Mat cleared his throat loudly, causing the vampire to pivot on his heels again. "What is it, tavern keeper?" Mat scratched the back of his head, not sure where to look. Augustin's eyes had again gone entirely black, angry at being interrupted. "You're going to have a problem with that, Elder." Augustine straightened up, and his eyes returned to their enchanting appearance. "A problem?" "Bianca needs to stay here," explained Mat. "Here?

17 : baby-sitter
Bianca turned her head towards her friend and turned her palms up to silently ask him what was wrong. "Luna? Did I hear you right?" the vampire chuckled through his teeth. He was shaking now, trying to regain his composure, almost struggling to keep the blackness from taking over his eyes as Bianca watched him. Beta Duncan ignored him completely, then tilted his head slightly toward Bianca before pivoting on his heels and heading for the exit. "Wait, one second," the young woman asked calmly. The Beta stopped immediately under the order that had just been given to him. He had never ceased to be amazed at how quickly his wolf had submitted and wanted to please his Luna. _That's our Luna_ declared the animal in the Beta's head with wonder. "Yes." I am so happy. Alpha will finally find peace. "I don't care if he finds peace. All I want is never to go through the river episode again. » _Brrrrr, you're right. But let's learn from it and take baths re

18 : Dhara & Darya
Bianca had entrusted Rosy to Augustin’s care. She was always amazed at the affection the little girl had for him. Rosy had jumped into his arms when he asked her to. Bianca softly laughed as she saw the child’s happy expression when Augustin came out of the Crossroad Café to walk her around while waiting for the babysitter to arrive. On the other hand, Mat had walked Aiyana home under the ssnarky orders of the vampire. * * * The door opened slowly, letting in two sublime women. Both, a blonde and a brunette, were dressed entirely in black leather and lace and wore thick black glasses. The brunette had pale skin and wore a tight French twist updo. The blonde had ebony black skin contrasted with her long platinum blonde braid. “Welcome to the Crossroad Café! My name is Bianca, and I’m your waitress for today!” the young woman announced cheerfully. The brunette approached with a confident step, slowly removing the gloves that covered her hands. Then, she lowered her sunglasses

19 : second night
Bianca was scrubbing a corner of the bar, taking advantage of a moment of calm so she could get as much work done as possible. Augustin called her to say that he'll bring Rosy later. As soon as the sun had started to set, the customers rushed to the exit. She wiped her forehead carelessly to clear a lock of hair that fell over her eyes. The day had been entirely chaotic. Between the arrival of the two high priestesses and the many groups of travelers, she had not had a minute to herself. All went to the same place: the ceremony of Luna. She wondered how it went and if some guests would tell what happened there during the festivities. All she could hear was that The Mad One did not come yet. The door of the Café opened slowly to let in the impressive black wolf. _Mate's legs! Ah-Whooooo..._ "Stop howling!" _ But look! Mate showed off her legs today! Mate is beautiful!_ "The others have seen what's ours!" growled Black at the beast. He started to cry a little in his hea

20 : our friend
Like the night before, Bianca had fallen asleep on the couch by the fire. Alpha Black had taken a blanket between his fangs and covered her with it. He then sat down on his hind legs and put his muzzle under the hand of his soul mate. He would spend the next few hours contemplating her before the sun's rays ordered him to leave here. The sound of clicking heels on the cafe floor caused the animal's nose to rise abruptly. The high priestess Dhara walked straight towards the woman lying on the large sofa and the black wolf. Then she sat down heavily on the armchair in front of them and removed her lace gloves before heaving a deep sigh. Black stared at her for a moment and then placed his muzzle under the hand of his soul mate again. "Good evening..." she whispered. The wolf ignored her and kept his attention on Bianca's sleeping face. "How are you, Mad One?" At the lack of reaction from her interlocutor, the high priestess undid her too-tight b
