Chapter 4: Being Human isn’t Fun
“I’m sorry she is your WHAT.” Flynn shouts
“Shut up!” He snaps he quickly checks his mate, still passed out.
“Are- you need to be joking- you’re joking right!” Flynn says “Morgan- this- is WORSE than an Omega! Being your mate!”
“Shut up!” Morgan snarls at him “You think I asked for this!”
Their parents died at the hands of humans. Shadow Knights is what they were called. Protectors of humans who killed creatures of the night. Modern day crusaders by the church.
Flynn rubs his face “Well- maybe the old hag was senile and wrong.”
Morgan holds up the necklace “our shaman tells similar stories.”
“Yeah yeah- a white wolf to counter balance the human world appears when the moon is swallowed by the storm.” Flynn rolls his eyes- he was logical not a believer in the old stories.
Morgan holds up one of her drawings- a white wolf- Flynn scoffs “Coincidence.”
“If what she said is true- Nimue is still a threat Flynn. This- is bad.”
Nimue was an evil she wolf- with the gift of foresight and had a power called shadow claw.
Being poisoned by her claws would send the person to madness of all the fears until they died. She was the leader of Shadowveil Pack. There was a huge battle many years ago, one that took place with their father, sent her into hibernation to recover.
“Well I am more worried about the company and the fact its CEO is now mysteriously disappeared.” Flynn says
“Easy- he violated ethics and codes of his company and his affair was discovered and he vanished like the little omega he is.” He sneers
“his father won’t be happy.”
“His father shouldn’t have created such weak children.”
“Harsh man.” Flynn says
He sighs rubbing his face- and still the very very real problem of- his very very human. mate.
“They’ll absolutely eat her alive.” Flynn comments about the other delegates
“Well if she’s friends with Koda- it might stop them.”
“That little Mutt? He doesn’t have as much weight as you do.”
Morgan paces. This was all problematic, and bad. She groans, sitting up from her bed in the other room. She looks, her living room no longer looked like a fight had just happened.
“I was so hoping it was just a dream.” She takes two advil for her head.
She looks at them both, “okay- uh now what.”
“Nothing.” Morgan grunts
“What’s going to happen to the company?” She asks
He sighs “I will take care of it.”
“You need help right?” She asks
“You don’t have to-“ He says
“I know my coworkers and the system- no offense you don’t.”
Flynn is amused “We need to find someone to replace him.”
“Well preferably not a misogynistic asshole.” She sneers.
He get’s up, “Rest. Go to the doctor. You’ll be compensated heavily for the damages.” He motions for his brother to leave with him
“So we totally aren’t going to talk about what the crazy gypsy woman said?”
He turns around “Do we need to?”
Her heart pounds, “No.”
“Then forget about it.”
Yeah right! She can just totally forget something like that!
He leaves.
She growls lowly- Yeah Koda was so right about him. She thinks. She quickly texts him
Hey you aren’t going to BELIEVE What just happened!
Koda: What?
She proceeds to tell him.
Koda: Are you okay?!
Her: Other than mild headache yeah.
Koda: I want you to come here, it’s not safe. And if that old batty woman is right much less!
Her: There’s something else- uhm she mentioned about being mated- to- Alpha Morgan.
Koda:….You’re- joking. Right.
Her: Sadly. No.
Koda: That’s insane! That- You know human werewolf relationships are taboo!
She sighs, As if she had a choice here!
Koda: This is bad. Cara. Bad.
Her: Yeah thanks so much.
Koda: Just- be careful okay? This guy- he’s insane. He has a temper too.
Her: Yeah I saw.
Koda: I’m serious. Be careful- if anything, come to Snow City. Okay?
She smiles, Koda was her only friend. And maybe family. She nods to herself.
She closes her laptop. As promised, heads to the doctor.
At the Hospital:
They gave her stitches, and antibotics.
“They didn’t bite you, did they?” the nurse asked concerned.
“No- no uh the head was from my counter and, uhm scratches I can’t get turned like that, right?” Cara asked worriedly.
“No-I mean these aren’t even deep scratches thankfully. But just for safety, we want to check you over.”
She checks her- “Huh-uhm your glands. They are- ridiculously swollen right now.”
“My- Glands.” She repeats.
“Ah yeah-usually- uh what happens-“ she blushes “When you come in contact with uhm, a mate- or- wolves in mating season. They go into heat- and their glands are swollen- did you come in contact with another wolf?”
“Ahm yeah- and uh he mentioned something about me being his mate.”
“But-nothing happened, right?” the nurse asked
“No. No, of course not. I mean-no.” “I’m like super turned off right now more than anything.” She grunts s*x was the absolute last thing on her mind even if Morgan Cole was the most attractive and eligible bachelor of the were-world.
“Huh. Weird. I mean-normally two mated whether human or wolf, uhm the attraction is uh insane. Wow, I can’t believe you’re that closed off to even notice!”
“What can I say I am a walking enigma.” She crosses her arms “But- the mating thing- is there uh anything I should like know?”
The Asian nurse sighs. “Well- it drives the werewolf insane, especially rejection. if you reject them its super painful for them.”
She winces. “Well, now I just feel bad.”
“Well, if its an omega don’t be.”
“Ha- about that-“
She looks at her “oh my god its an Alpha?!”
She winces “Just my rotten luck!”
“No- no girl that is all the luck in the world!” She swoons. “I mean a rich hot young eligible bachelor-“ She sighs dreamily. “Man to be mated to Morgan Cole.”
“Uhm well okay. Anyway-“
“oh uh- also, I mean you might not feel it now but- when you do it will hit you like a train.” The nurse adds “Or, so I have heard.”
“Is s*x that good?”
She hums “You won’t want anyone else.” “Oh and they mate for life.”
“Apparently not all of them.” Cara mutters-referring to her old boss
The nurse snaps off her gloves. “You’re all set. If uh you have any abnormalities, just come in again.”
She nods and leaves.
Cara went back home. She did some digging. Date of Birth-January 21st. She types-
She frowns Mother-Selene Blair.
She typed in her parents name in the database.
How the hell were there no records of her mother?! She growls Stupid computers.
She types in google. Huh-
She found something. Article.
Body discovered- Selene Blair- wolf attack. Leader of the Triad Sisterhood dead.
Triad sisterhood? She types it in. Coven dating back to the 60’s. A group lead by- Selene Blair- and a woman named Gwen. A picture- she gasps softly- the woman in her dreams! She prints it out. Her- mother. She holds the picture- she looked like her. she looked so beautiful.
She felt hot tears down her face. Why- did she lie?
She tries to find more but couldn’t. The woman who raised her was her sister? Along with her nephew-his name was Ryder. So he wasn’t her brother? At all?
Just like that her entire life unraveled into a deeper mystery.
