1294 Words
"Seriously Fay ."Tiana screeched . "What the hell is taking you so long ?" I resisted the urge to snap the girl's mouth shut with glue .Tiana , unfortunately had gotten her annoying ass high pitch voice from her mother and it always pissed me off . "Almost done ." I gritted out blowing the last ounces of pixie dust onto her wings . She rolled her eyes at me . "You're lucky mother isn't around or you'd have earned yourself more punishment than you already have ." Nothing beats living the punishment of having to be around you , I thought dryly . I covered my ears as another loud screech interrupted our conversation . Sigh. Just add another one to torture me . I watched as my other cousin made her way towards us ,her shiny blond hair flowed around her shoulders beautifully and her wings were sparkling like diamonds under the bright sunlight thanks to all the effort I'd put into sprinkling all that pixie dust onto them but an hour ago . Her smile was wide , her lips a deep red from the lip stains I'd had to work my butt off to buy from the village's merchandiser a few days ago. Layla’s wings buzzed excitedly behind her as she all but flew towards us . "What's the matter sister ?" Tiana asked , her eyes dancing with excitement . "Aahhhh—" She screamed in response . Oh for the love of God , would she stop doing that. "Prince Edmund from the Water Fairies just arrived ."She finally willed herself to speak after all the annoying screaming . I was grateful the screaming had stopped , that is until Tiana started to scream from the news as well .Before I knew it , they both were screaming together . I was surprised my ear wasn't bleeding yet. “Quick Fay.”Layla called. “You must get some jasmine flowers for us , no prince would be able to resist that scent on us.” Jasmine flowers?Those weren’t found anywhere except near the north river in the woods , which was a good distance from here. “But I don’t have any –“ Layla glared at me. “Well go get some .” I pressed my lips tightly together to prevent  myself from giving her a piece of my mind .Without another word I spread my wings out and flew into the sky , I would get there way faster by flying rather than using my feet.Besides that I enjoyed being in the air , it gave me a chance to forget about my problems below.One of the few things that brought me joy since my parent's death. …… CAYDEN’S POV: I followed the scent almost desperately , my eyes scanning the thick crowd , however there wasn’t a single wolf in sight , only f*****g fairies. How could that be when the scent was so strong? “There you are.” Kade said joining me , as soon as I had gotten a whiff off  her scent a few minutes ago I’d ditched Kade without a single word , my mind was only focused on finding her. “Did you notice any she wolves here?”I asked as I continued to scan the thick crowd. He gave me a knowing look . “Oh so that’s what’s happening here , you left me to get laid.”He concluded with a chuckle tapping me on my back. “Kade.”I growled. “What’s got your panties in a twist?” He asked dryly. I ignored his question as a group of fairies caught my attention , the one with the long black hair reaching her waist held my interest more than the other two.Her back was turned to me and for some reason I was desperate to see her face. “Cayden?” I ignored my brother once again as I started off in her direction , the scent of my mate getting surprisingly stronger the closer I got to her and right before I could f*****g reach her, the blasted fairy opened her wings and flew off into the sky , taking the scent of my mate with her. Fuck. What the hell was that? Why did the scent disappear with her? Maybe she had a recent encounter with my mate , that would explain why the scent followed her. I had to go after her and get to the bottom of this before I lost my f*****g mind. ………. FAY'S POV: Finally , I thought as my eyes rested on the beautiful delicate jasmine flowers on the ground next to the river.I leaned down and gently plucked a few , making sure to take extra , knowing my cousins they would want more for the ball tonight. I smiled down at the plants in front of me , they always calmed my senses , not as much as the luscious sound of the river's water flowing however. I could never explain it but for some reason I had a connection to the water. Which was weird for a light fairy , water fairies were the ones with a deep connection to the water , my parents were always fascinated with that specific trait of mine . I touched the water with my fingers , sighing with contentment .I allowed myself to enjoy the feel of it for a moment , inhaling the scent of the jasmines around me. It always felt good to close your eyes and imagine a life you’ve always dreamt off , it gave you motivation to fight for what you believe in. I climbed to my feet. Enough daydreaming , I needed to get back to my cousins before my aunt had a fit. Just as I was about to fly off however ,  all the hairs on my body suddenly stood up. Someone was watching me from afar, their eyes burning into my skin . My heart leaped in my chest as I felt the connection almost immediately . I froze. My wings . They were growing … Maturing to its full length . No ! This couldn't be happening , not now. A fairy’s wings only matured to it’s full length when they had found their mate. I swallowed and slowly turned around . He was standing there at least 7 feet tall with powerfully built wide shoulders , my gaze travelled higher to meet a strong chiseled jawline ,long narrowed nose and … rich sensual lips that immediately stirred unwanted feelings deep in my belly as my mind grudgingly imagined those very lips against mine , doing wicked things to my body. I continued with my inspection , a small gasp escaping my mouth as I came to the sudden conclusion that nothing compared to his eyes , a sharp silver grey that pulled you in with it's intensity , in fact I felt myself getting lost in those cold metallic eyes now  and if I didn't stop soon I may never be able to get out . My throat tightened as my brain struggled to cooperate or think clearly for that matter at the fact that his  ruggedly handsome features wasn’t what made my insides flip inside out. No! This man wasn’t a fairy. My heart pounded against my chest. He was a werewolf. How could this be ? It couldn't be him , this had to be some kind of mistake . My mate couldn't possibly be a werewolf !
