Beyond her time

maybe festival

*Chloe*

I awake in a warm embrace cuddling, ohh damn that does that feel good, I slowly start opening my eyes, the sun is just starting to rise, peeking in through the open bay window, I could see the ocean was a clear jewel blue as it rolled upon gem blue as it dashed upon the sand, the sky was a curtain of silk in this early morning hue as the sounds of the waves were rippling gently soothing my tired soul, the palm trees swayed ever so lightly.

"morning my baby, all I want is you here near me baby, more than anything I just want to lay here with you for a bit, enjoy this moment with you my gorgeous luna.” Zane speaks to me as he awakens. Instead of his words soothing me the way they should, it was the way he draws out the word luna sends me on of fire all through my veins, my stomach muscles already starting to waiver in anticipation.

"mmm hey boo, sounds good to me" I nod in reply.. His arms around me draw tighter, crushing me to him, I bury my face in the curve of his neck, his unique scent soothing me.

oh sh!t we did it .. do I regret it, no.. but is it real.. certainly feels like it's real...

oh goddess I mated with the Aplha to be.. and yes he is my mate.

I check my phone, Soo many messages from Becca and Nicole.. wowzas...

**Text**

"all good girls, I'm fine and yes he is amazing"

beep beep

"Soo happy for you poss"

I smile looking at my phone..

"That had better not be other men your texting" Zane asks questionably raising his eyebrow at me,

"The girls if you must know, I'm going to go have a shower" I reply sighing getting out of bed, "mmm I will join you baby", as he follows.

Geez goddess, we were meant to be taking it slow .. then I blew that out of the water.. quite literally.. oh my gosh.. and now we're in the shower together.. last night was great!, neither of us got much sleep.. but it was worth it, I guess we got a couple to a few hours sleep through out the night.

Zane kisses me good bye after the breakfast we made together, pancakes, mmmm delicious, eggs easy done with maple bacon it was divine.. he leaves to go back to his room, as we need to get ready for the festival!!.

I slowly get dressed, Becca and Nicole finally arrive to help me with my corset..

"Chloe omg give us all the details" "yes poss, tell us" chimes Nicole..

I look at both girls and giggle...

"a lady never kisses and tells"

"and your no lady" laughs Becca..

I finish getting ready and put on my Ariat Boots, they are Soo comfy!! always the best boot, can wear them all day long.

Becca wearing a blue corset dress and Nicole in pink, we exit the villa ready for a walk down to the settlement, if we're lucky we may find a carriage ride along the way.

what a sight, horse and carts, carriage rides, an area set up with large game of chess, croquet, and polo...

the bakery buzzing, mmm the smell of coffee... to watch the black smith make horse shoes.. brilliant .. smiling I take it all in... and my senses awaken, Zane is near..

He comes up to me and gives me a cuddle, kisses my for head. Ohhhh those forehead kisses..."hey miss Chloe" he chimes.. "Zane" I reply.

our hands entwine, mmm taking me back to last night... ahhh snap out of it Chloe.

"ready to explore" I ask him?

"ready as Il ever be baby".

Most of the younger adults will hang, swim at the beach ready for round two of the party, while few of us head to the festival.

"Coffee" I suggest smiling...

"please baby" Zane replies..

we walk hand in hand to the bakery..

I order my self a mocha, and for Zane latte...

We sit under the giant old oak tree taking in the wanders, we sit in silence for a few minutes.. I eye off that gorgeous ship from the shadowy tree, as if reading my mind "you want to go see baby girl"

"gosh yes!, I would love too!, I'm sorry if I'm being boring.. I do truly love it here" I reply excitedly.. "I know you will make it up to me baby, let's go".

The schooner is amazing, the sails are large but not masted, the wood grain is unlike any other, imagine sailing this across the wild sea's..

The captain's quarters is made up as if he never left and was ready to set sail, maps and knick knacks, it truly was amazing.

Lost in my thoughts interestingly looking at his map, strangely in the corner down near Tassie there is my trademark C with an X, I sit down in his chair, black leather on Blackwood chair, "comfy there miss" startled I jump "I..I..I um sorry I was just..." he puts his hand up "it is ok, I see you mean no harm ma'am" I try to smile, he looks at Zane nods his head "sir" offers his hand, they shake hands.

"Ah wolf, yes?" Zane nods, who is this man? he looks a little out of place, if I didn't know better I'd say he travels through time to be here.

gold letters on his desk say captain Byron Long. His suit looks old, but is brand new, greying salt and pepper hair and a captain's hat upon his head...

I thank Byron, and told me his schooner is a beautiful vessel, "you are welcome aboard here any time". I nod as we walk away...

Such a beautiful view from the docks, I wonder if the settlement would have looked like this units hey day.

"ok that was weird, but at least he was nice" Zane just looks at me.. "I'm more surprised he knew what I was" he says shaking his head...

"don't over think it.. I'm sure it will be fine" I reply.. taking his hand... as much as I love the festival.. I want to take Zane home.. get my bathing suit and go swimming!! party no 2 has just started!!.

Zane helps me undress, slowly and teasingly, "don't tease now Mr Smith"

"mmm I will tease as much as I like miss Chloe" kissing me slowly still teasing as he takes my vintage dress off..

He gazed at me as I walk away, I grab my bikini that was sitting on the dresser... Zander comes over and lifts me up on the dresser.. he looks in my eyes, and leans in to kiss... his hand upon my thigh ready to explore.. finger by finger he plays... "mmm you are wet for me" he says.. he pulls off his shirt, showing his gorgeous body, and drops his pants, slowly enters me.. i put my legs around his waist, I want to feel him deep inside me, I begin to moan.. ohh that is good, he gets faster, he tip my head to the side as he marks me, I tip my head back in ecstasy, I moan again as he leans in to me, I mark him back, he put his forehead to mine and fills me deep inside.kissing and panting we fall back on the bed.. cuddling he looks back at his mark a black wolf with cresent on its head, white princess Lily surrounding his wolf... I smile as I look at his.. silver and white wolf, with red roses and vines entwined knots. He leans in a kisses his wolf, "always mine miss Chloe, always mine"

We quickly shower, putting on our bathing suits, my bikini ruby red, Zane's ripcurl shorts sitting slow on hip's showing his V.. I bite my lower lip just looking at him.

Beach side

Sitting down on the log, with the girls.. it was nice, looking at the ocean, it's just turned dark.. the full moon dancing on the water, taking in the day and the atmosphere..

One of Becca's good friends Eliza, comes to join us, she used to be one of Zane's fk buddy's one would say.. not no more now I'm here she won't be.

As it started to chill down a bit, I grabbed my over sized warm Cardi to put it on, I wasn't meant to show my mark, but it gleamed in the moonlight, that is the part when Eliza saw the mark and lost her sh!t, yelling and screaming, making a scene, much to my disgust everyone was watching and staring as the scene unfolded!.

Eliza stood to face me and stalked over, I stood up, Eliza lunged at me and managed to knock me off balance, I landed hard on the ground with a thud. She quickly got on top of me and tried to pin me down, not happening lady!! I managed to get my knees between our bodies and I pushed her off of me. I moved quickly and got on top of her, trying to pin her down, but before I could do it, she wiggled her legs out from under my body and managed to push me off. ugghh, We both stood up quickly and got ready to fight again.

"your a feisty she-wolf witch Chloe", she remarked. I smirked back at her.. "Bring it on Eliza, he is mine".

Eliza lunged at me and I dodge her attack, before she could turn around, I kicked the back of her knees, causing her to fall hard on the ground. She let out another “ow” on impact, before she could get up, I hoped on top of her and pinned her with all my weight. Eliza tried to wiggle free, but I had her pinned, real good this time. I didn't give Eliza a choice she had to tap out in defeat.

The sound of Zane's voice broke us apart..

"Eliza, it's done and over, submit to your future Luna". it was clear Eliza was not happy, "she will never be my Luna " she said through gritted teeth..

"what's done is done, if that's your decision pray to the goddess another pack will adopt you" Zane said quite angrily, his alpha presence being made well known..

What the hell was she playing at??, I ran, I ran and ran! I needed space, I need time, I need to think!!, why on earth would she have the balls to try and fight me??, he was not her's to claim.

I ran and ran, across the perfect grass, up through the village to the biggest pine trees in the settlement, I ran to the graveyard, opened the white picket fence, and i sat down the special built sandstone rock bench, I began to cry.. I wiped my tear stained face, looked up towards the full moon, goddess what did I do to deserve such disrespectful behaviour from her?? as I wiped my tear stained face with my palms i put one hand down on the sandstone bench, the other on my special necklace..

whhhhiiiiizzzz a strange buzzing sound like a swarm of bees surrounding me, I black out for unknown time.

I take a deep breath, steady my self and look around... I don't think I was no longer in 2020, that I was sure of... as I tearfully look around, the docklands is full, the schooner is still there, but there are many more houses, the buildings no longer falling apart, everything looked as though it should have, the head stones no longer ragged, you could clearly read them, some where even fresh.

I sensed someone watching me.. that is when a shadowy figure near by popped out behind the tree lines, I tried to hide my self against the tree, trying to become as invisible as I could, I slowed my heart rate, although I was scared beyond my Witt's, I longed for Zane, I was scared and needed him. The stranger seemed to glide along, edging closer and closer, I could sense he wasn't there to threaten me, thank the goddess!, with no effort at all he glided next to me.. he hands me his long jacket to put on, our hands mildly touch with his fingers are as cold as ice. Vampire.. all typical Vampire's, complexion pasty white, generally amber eyes, and touch cold as ice.

"come dear, come dear, quickly now before you and I are both spotted" he takes a breath, eyes scanning me up and down,

"Ah, yes.. yes.. you have seemed to have been marked, but you smell like witch, hmmm, yes, yes, quickly now I know the people who can help you, let's go quickly now, quickly now move along" his voice seems oddly familiar, I swear it's the jeweller, he's always at the festival, every year.. he even commented on my necklace last year.

All I can muster is a nod, I'm scared to death, everything I knew was now gone.

"I.. Ah.. I.." I can't get my words together "SSH shh, Its fine my dear" he tried to ssh me "how, how did you know I was here" I mumble in a whisper, "ssh my dear, i can fell the vibrations of the sandstone, you also where the necklace I made.. Janny one of the first Bennett witches, spelled it many years ago, I remember clearly she said by the sun and the moon, time will move, Ah but at last we see the day, another traveller".

There were many hidden gaps and secret stair wells, many were made to hide the convicts so they could be moved through the village with out being seen, he hid me well, twists and turns, he raises a finger to his lips, "sshh", we were hiding against a nook, it was quite warm, possibly a fire place, guards were on centry duty, while others were on perimeter, I held my breath, they were becoming closer down the little alley way.. "dragon fog and chameleon sight, I command the shrouded sea. I blend the mist, mix light with the night, refract around me" I repeat 3 times holding my necklace.., the guards pass us by, were still quiet as a mouse. It took several minutes to gather ourselves before we set along our way again, in the end of our travels I was taken to the commanders back door, I love the commanders house, set on the waters edge, have 8 large bedrooms, each with their own bathroom, kitchen, dining room, sitting room, stables out the back and gorgeous gardens, he gave a special knock, low and behold it's Byron.

they bring me in to the kitchen, his maid is still there, cleaning, after the evenings meals. Byron looks at her and nods, she takes my hand "let's get you dressed then lass" goddess have mercy is she from Scotland?, "th.. thankyou ma'am" I reply quietly.. my head down. The maid helps me in to fresh night clothes, and smiles at me, "Ah what do we have here than lass" she lifts my chin to look at her, "you are a special girl, witch cross wolf, do not let them see you work any of your powers, nor shift, you hear me now"

she said quite Stern with some compassion, I nod. "under no circumstances remember, some will not take to kind and will fear you, Ah now I see your scared lass, but have no fear we can work this out and have you home safe again".

I quietly made way way down to meet Byron down in his study, he smiled "I knew I'd see you again, but was not so sure it would have been this soon, nor in this period of time", I apologized to him, "it is more than fine". I looked around his study, "do you mind?" I asked him.. "not at all, I have watched you many years stand upon the dock and watch as we sail in, quite remarkable is it not" he furrowed "every year we make the trip, quite fascinating to see people in awe everytime" he exclaimed.

his office it really was like nothing I've ever seen, his diary was open on his black wood table, lanterns the only light, his maps were open on his desk, one in particular it was a map of the world, with Australia and Tasmania, "this map, it's on your boat" I point, Byron laughs and passes me his ink and quill, next to the map, it seemed I was quite messy, I spotted a few drops on the floor before leaving my final mark.

"Byron, Ah Mr commander Long, um, how did the jeweller really know I was here?" I ask questionably.. "call me Byron it is fine, but to answer your question it is chronoporia my dear, it means time travel, the piece of jewellery you carry on your neck along with tears, and my sandstone seat, to which I also believe you hold all 4 qualities for a witch, with the blood of wolf, If I say so, I'd assume you are a part of my bloodline to be able to travel, I would guess he would of felt the vibrations, as he feels mine, he was an original who part made it Afterall".

The seat was hand carved by witch, wolf, and vampire, their blood sweat and tears along with reciting of incantations enchanted it.

It was becoming quite late, Byron shown me back to my room and bid me goodnight, it was quite odd having lanterns for lights, I promised him I would not leave and he would show me home tomorrow, i let my lantern burn through the night for comfort.

I started to miss Zane, I hope he didn't worry too much, I went to the window, placed my hand on the pane.. how I wished to see Zane. Taking a deep breath I layed in the old bed, mind swirling over the day that had been, trying to get an ounce of some sleep, I tossed and turned to what seemed hours, I whispered in the breeze, and to that I rocked to sleep.
