Mae From Night In The Woods Novels & Stories

MAEVE Sleep didn't come easy to me. I kept having nightmares. Harrowing ones. I'd woken up twice tonight, sweating profusely and hating the feeling of being alone. It did not even help that a thunder clapped after a strong lightning bolt lit up the skies. I felt like I was in a horror movie, Marina being the villain. I could sense her presence even if I knew fully well that she wasn't here. The thought of it drove me mad. I could feel myself running fucking mad.

“I knew I would end up killing Bambi.” “Don’t be daft. Bambi, the movie was a white-tail deer, that’s a roe.” He was actually laughing at me. Meanwhile, I felt like sobbing. I knew he didn’t understand, but it was a big thing for me. A fear that had consumed me, first with my parents and then myself. “Great, I killed Bambi’s mother instead.” I moved back away from the deer and propped myself up against a tree. Looking back at the carcass and the regret only building further. Such a beautiful creature taken out by a monster lurking in the woods.

The entire dynamic felt strange, and yet, knowing what I did now, it was understandable. “We will talk later, Mae,” I added, trying to soften Jenna’s landing. Founder or not. Mae was still my aunt, mother, and father, and without her, I would have probably died a long time ago. Mae’s gaze on the window dragged my focus there. It was then that I noticed the sky was still shrouded in darkness. It seemed I hadn’t been unconscious for that long then. “I will be back in the morning with food,” Mae paused to look at my mate before she continued, “for both of you, and then we can all talk.”

Lonut asks, his eyes roaming over every edge and curve of my body. Mihai smiles like he knew the question was coming, his hand wrapping around my hip and pulling me closer to him. “Her name is Mae williams, her father is the hunter who has been trying to track us down for years.” his voice is thick with humour, though i do not find it funny at all. If only my father had succeeded and destroyed them all. All three of their eyes turn black at the mention of my father and my name, it is clear that they know exactly who i am and what my family has done.

“Don’t thank us yet. The blood moon is in two nights. And when Elena Ashford arrives, the real game begins.” My hand fell to my pocket, brushing against the cool hilt of the silver dagger. Two nights. And then, I would meet my mother’s killer face to face. END OF CHAPTER 9

Maya woke up feeling sore all over her body, she sat upright on the strange bed trying to figure out what happened. She turned to see an unfamiliar figure on the other side of the bed sleeping soundly, she gasped and quickly had a flashback of what happened. Maya is a young beautiful lady who grew up without her parents, she stays with her aunt who trained her for college but couldn't further because of a lack of money. Maya decided to struggle on her own by going for a mini job to gather money for her school, she got a job in a well-known clubhouse as a waitress along with her best friend Mia, both have known each other right from school.

Please get me, Mae! “Mae! Where are you, Mae! Mae! Help Mae! MAE!” I quickly got out of the bed I was in and tried to walk towards the door but quickly fell to the ground. I kept trying to get up on my weak legs but kept falling halfway up. “Mae… Where are you... I am scared… Mae… Help me…” I sound so pathetic calling out so weakly for Mae like a child but I didn’t care at the moment. I felt so scared… I felt like I almost remembered something horrible. I don’t want to remember it…

Mike said, so I smiled and nodded before I made my way to his bedroom, where the bathroom was. I missed him so much, so I was thinking of staying the whole night with him and going home the next day. With that in mind, I started taking a bath, and just as I was done wrapping my body with a towel, the lights went off. Since wolves have enhanced eyesight, I could still see the door, so I opened it and said, “Mike, why did the lights go off?" “What the–” “Who are you?”

Even the surrounding forest appeared to hum with it, the sounds of rustling leaves and off in the distance, the early nighttime sounds, weaving together in the air. The world felt in sync, like even the trees knew what we had between us. As the night wore on, the weight of our previous thoughts dispersed. We moved on to simple things — stories we’d told a dozen times before, jokes that still made us laugh until tears threatened to flow. Maeve was just the kind of person who could do that: pull you out of the darkest place and let you remember what it felt like to be alive. Eventually we got tired. The weight of the day, the weeks and months leading up to it, settled into our bones. Maeve mad

“What?” Mae pointed to the eleventh symbol. “That one makes wolves love you.” Darius’s expression shifted. Malric looked sick. “And the last?” Luna asked. Mae pressed the wooden fox against her chest. “That’s mine.” Everyone turned toward her. Eliane slowly looked down at the girl she was holding. “What do you do, Mae?” Mae’s eyes moved toward Aurora and then Onyx. “I make them forget.” Aurora suddenly backed away. Mae began crying harder. “I don’t want to.”
