Demigoddess Rowena

“WHAT THE f**k DID YOU DO?” He wrapped his hand around my throat and lifted me against the car,

In my mind, I was outraged, but my body responded differently. I got wet instantly, and without thinking, wrapped my legs around Alpha Gideon’s waist. He was hard and let out a hiss. He slowly ground his hips into mine. I bit my lip to stop from moaning, and his eyes snapped to them. I used his closeness to get a better look. His eyes are even more captivating up close, and that chiseled jaw! Oh lordy, I just want to lick him! I heard about the tingles you feel when touching your mate. Whatever this was felt like an electric current all over my body. Finally we locked eyes and I watched them turn blood red. His wolf was trying to surface. A strong wind blew between us, and a strand of hair fell in front of my eyes. He reached up, twirled it between his fingers, then tucked it behind my ear.

Swoon.

No, I shouldn’t let one simple sweet action distract me than I thought possible for him. I refuse to be pushed around anymore. I will not be a victim. I won’t let anyone mistreat me anymore,

“Your big scary Alpha voice isn't going to work on me. Like my new hair?” I smirked.

His eyes widened. I remember what he thought when he ripped off the door of Skye’s car. I could hear him imagining running his fingers through my hair while I was pleasuring him. I briefly wondered what that would feel like before coming back to reality. My mate has other women to do that for him and he doesn’t need me. It felt like ice-cold water was poured over my body. I unhooked my legs and pushed our bodies apart. I took his hand from my throat and pulled on it. Good job, smarty pants. Try using brute force with a man twice your size. I was about to shove him off using magick when another blonde bunny stepped forward,

“She broke another rule, Alpha.” She put her hand on his shoulder,

“Fix it before I break your dainty little neck,” Alpha Gideon snared,

“What is with you wolves and going for my neck?” I challenged him.

Confusion clouded his face and I used it to my advantage. I flung him off me and rubbed my neck. I was angry. He may not want a mate, but he should treat other people with more respect. I raise my chin and look him dead in the eyes. He will not accuse me of breaking a rule and threaten me because some little whiny b***h says so. How dare he not give me a chance to defend myself? I was shaking mad and fire briefly took hold of my body. The crowd gasped. Alpha Gideon and the bunny took a wary step back. I took several deep breaths and tried to calm myself. The fire disappeared,

“I broke no rules. I was defending myself. If One truly did not want to be harmed, she should not have woken me up with her hands wrapped around my neck. Is it my fault she is so dumb? She didn’t even shift and attempt to rip my throat out.” I poked his chest.

His eyes flashed red again. I could see him struggling to control his wolf. I think his wolf wanted to meet me. I also wanted to meet him. I haven't seen a wolf shift before. Then I remember what that Bunny said. It wasn’t even my fault. It was his! I will not be punished for something I didn’t cause,

“It is your fault too, Alpha. I was asleep, so the fact your scent was all over me is something you should explain to her.” Rowena raised an eyebrow,

“I-I uh,” he stuttered,

His body went rigid and his eyes were shifting between green and red. He started to blush. Aww! The big bad Alpha can get embarrassed. Damn it! It’s kind of cute. Wait! Focus Rowena. Don’t let his cuteness distract you. You should be mad. He is defending other women over you! HIS SOULMATE. Don’t be like all those weak girls on w*****d novels who just forgive the guy because he is cute or because of the mate bond. He has to work for his forgiveness and right now, he hasn’t asked or tried. So he doesn’t deserve it. I crossed my arms over my chest and I looked at him with defiance,

“TURN HER BACK NOW!” He snapped,

“If you're not going to be rational about self-defense, then I don’t want to talk to you anymore. I want to talk to my mate. I want to talk to your wolf. NOW.” I snapped,

“What the-” He was cut off by my magick forcing him to shift.

If Alpha Lachlan Gideon was big, his wolf was enormous. His wolf stood and nearly 8’ft. His fur was black as coal and his eyes were a beautiful blood red. A big smile appeared on my face. I immediately felt the warmth and connection and I knew. Now I know why I could hear his thoughts. It’s not a mate bond thing! My mother once told me I didn’t deserve one. That’s why I was the only witch without one. It makes sense I would find him now. I’ve never been able to practice, so I am still technically new to my craft.

Severus

I have never taken over as quickly as I have since she’s been around. It’s like her power draws me out, and Lachlan can’t fight it. I felt it immediately, the reason she could hear my thoughts. How is this possible? I don’t know how to support a new witch! I would try my best for this beautiful Demigoddess. I can feel the pain she went through in her life I vowed to myself to never to let her go through any in my presence ever again. If only I can get my stupid human on board. I’ve been telling him for so long that we need our mate. That those bunnies he keeps. That’s what makes him look weak. He won’t listen. I will make him, I will do anything for my Demigoddess. I can learn to be a familiar. I’ll have to talk to Ace, and he can help. His human Jaxs is half-witch! I noticed her step forward almost as if she wanted to touch me but she hesitated. I got down on the grounds and put my snout down. I was in a submissive position, one an Alpha like me would never allow. But for this woman? I would let her have my fur. Using our mind link,

‘My name is Severus, my beautiful Demigoddess.’ I licked her face,

‘Hi, Severus, I’m so glad I found my mate and my familiar. I like you better than your human half already!’ Her beautiful smile got brighter.

MINE! I thought, MINE! MINE! MINE! MINE! I would take her on this spot right now if she had a wolf. I could feel Lachlan trying to take back control. Since I first came to him, he’s always had excellent control over me. If an Alpha can’t control his wolf, he’s a useless Alpha. However, accepting Rowena made me stronger than him. I just wish he would see that. As soon as I accepted our bond, I could feel her magick coursing through me, making me stronger. He’s already the most feared and well-respected Alpha. If he accepted her, he would be unstoppable. She came right up to me and reached her hand out but stopped before she reached me,

‘Ummmmmm, may I pet you?’ She rocked back and forth.

Werewolves hated getting pet like a dog, but I got closer to my mate and bent further down. Lachlan is tall in human form, but I’m taller. I am an Alpha wolf, after all. She ran her fingers through my fur, and I felt the shocks all over my body. The pack gasped, they couldn't hear our mind link, but they could see her petting their Alpha. I sat down, and Rowena followed. She laid down on me, and we forgot the rest of the world existed,

‘You’re so warm and soft and cuddly! I am so excited to finally have a familiar and to bond with my mate even though your human hates me.’ She hugged me.

My mate thinks Lachlan hates her and it breaks my heart. I let out a whimper and bury my snout in her neck. Her scent calmed me. It was the most exquisite smell: freshly baked red velvet cake, lavender, rain, and gasoline. I was pretty sure Lachlan didn’t deserve her, but I would work every day. I’ve never seen a human with multi-colour eyes, red, blue, green, yellow and purple. It was pure magick. She was smaller than most she-wolves, but I actually liked it better this way. Rowena is perfect. I know Lachlan thinks so too, but his stubborn ass would never admit he was wrong,

‘He doesn’t hate you. He just doesn’t know how to let himself love you, It’s not my story to tell, but he spent a long time fighting what you represent.’ I tried to comfort mate,

‘Is he outraged? Will he try to kill me?’ She slowed her petting down,

“I tried to calm him down, but he doesn’t like his rules broken. He thinks it shows bad leadership, and he also believes having a mate makes you weak. You're so strong though Rowena, I can feel it. I feel our bond strengthening both of us. My vision and hearing for an Alpha are great since you've been petting me. It’s improved even further.’ I tried to convince her.

I could tell by her face she didn’t believe me. I feel her slowly move away from me. She put up a wall, I couldn’t feel her emotions anymore, and it worried me. What was my beautiful Demigoddess thinking? She sat quietly for a long time and she eventually stopped petting me. I looked up, Rowena looked sad,

‘Maybe I should just leave.’ She huffed, defeated,

‘Please don’t leave me, Demigoddess. I couldn't bear it as your mate or your familiar. Give him time. Lachlan is already attracted to you, even if he won't admit it. After you fell asleep last night, he brushed your hair and traced over your scars thousands of times. He even cuddled you for a little, which isn't something he’s ever done.’ I pleaded,

‘I have to face him sooner or later,’ Rowena said reluctantly,

‘Okay,’ I licked her face, she laughed.

I shifted back.

Alpha Lachlan Gideon

So Severus is her familiar too. f**k my life. He was already annoying when he was just her mate. How was I going to deal with the over-protectiveness of him being her familiar too? Rowena looked over at me, and I took a step back. She looked at me with an indifference I didn’t like. She held my eye contact and waved her hand. A cloud of purple swarmed One and she turned back,

“YOU FUCKEN b***h!” One screamed,

“Ugh, is screaming the only tone you know? I'm sure the Alpha likes that in bed, but it doesn't interest me. Next time you try something, I won't kill you. I’ll just strip you of your ability to turn or use any of your werewolf senses. Understand? If you have a problem with me smelling like the Alpha, ask him.” She rolled her eyes.

She walked towards Skye, Mae and Evie. They each gave me a warning look. Traitors! One was about to ask me why I smelt like Rowena. I didn’t have a proper answer. Instead, I threw her over my shoulder, slapped her ass and told the bunnies to get inside. I watched Rowena look away, and Severus whimpered. I stop to informed the crowd I would be leaving for two weeks to help out with The Dream Amythest and The Bloodstone pack. They were located in the south and were having a high number of random attacks. That’s what the meeting was about earlier. Jaxs and some warriors, along with the Bunnies and I, will be going down to see if we could help out. I wasn’t going to bring the bunnies, but I don’t want them here. I know how mean they can get. They’re going to make trouble for Rowena. I informed my pack that like usual Skye would be Alpha while I was gone.

UNKNOWN P.O.V

If that little b***h thinks she’ll ruin my plans, she’s got another thing coming. I don’t want the prophecy to come true. I have worked too hard, Rowena and Ace have to have a baby. I’ve spent so long working on this how could she ruin it one day? Since Genevive and Pheonix’s wedding almost got canceled, I’ve learned to have at least five backup plans to get what I want. I will not fail. Power will be mine. I tried to return this morning early when everyone was sleeping to catch them off guard but there was a protective force field. I can’t believe she’s already this strong I kept her ignorant and weak for years. It’s been almost 24 hours since everything happened. I should have some sort of message by now. What's taking that barbie slut so long? I started to get fed up with her whining and complaining as if I didn’t give her everything she wanted. I gave her the perfect life, but it’s never good enough. I had spelled two mac foundation compacts to act as a walkie-talkie. I opened the compact as it vibrated. She left a message saying she is waiting just outside the territory border by the old railroad tracks. I opened a portal, pacing back and forth was an angry she-mutt. This woman was one of my backup plans in case Rowena did meet her mate.

“High Priestess, I did everything you said. As long as I wear the perfume, he’ll always want me most. Well, he denied me twice! That's two times.” she whined,

“It’s not going to work against his mate's natural smell. I told you this, you moron. You were supposed to make him hate mate so much he’d reject her on-site. What have you been doing for the last 15 years?" I demanded.

I grabbed her by the throat and squeezed. Why should I keep this little mutt alive? She couldn't even follow simple instructions. I have to do everything my damn self! My plans will not fail! She started squirming and her face drained of colour,

“Wait! We're going to help out two southern packs and he’s taking about 50 warriors. His sister Evie is pregnant. He loves her use Evie against that ugly b***h who is after my mate!” She urged,

“He’s not your mate yet. You’re his second chance, mate he has to reject her first.” I lied again to her.

Second chance mates are not real. It’s something werewolves tell themselves to make themselves feel better. You can remarry but it will never be like the mate bond, and this fool has convinced herself that Hekate, or as the mutts call her Moon Goddess, made a mistake. As if she makes mistakes. It's not Hekate’s fault Mandy didn’t want her real mate because he was an omega. She truly believes she meant to be Luna. Apparently, her dad was Beta for Alpha James Gideon and she grew up in the packhouse near Lachlan and his siblings. She was so in love with him and he just ignored her until I intervened. I gave her a perfume potion that would make him possessive and lustful after her but it will never give him natural feelings. I won’t be using his pregnant sister because I can’t get to her with Rowena’s protective circle. I will wait until they were on their way back and Ill take her mate hostage to draw Rowena out. I would have killed him years ago if losing your mate didn’t weaken your ability to control your magick.
