The Alpha’s Faery

Chapter Eleven

Hazel

I watched as Tristan left me, my heart already longing to be near him, I sighed and made my way back upstairs to my room a smile playing on my lips he had already got my dad on side he was a charmer alright, all we need is this witch to go away and we could be happy together the thought of going to the pack house still made me anxious but I tried not to think about that for now.

The next morning I woke up and showered I had chores to do my mum and dad could do them all with their powers but it was important for us to do things manually without power before we got them as a lot of fairies where never powerful enough or some fairies never got powers but most of all it taught us to not take them for granted, some fairies got their wings around my age I couldn’t wait for mine to come in now that I had Tristan I was hoping feel his power in me and be able to maybe feel more of the mate bond. I decided after my chores I would go to old Mabel who lived on the edge of the village she could be trusted and I’m pretty sure she knew of someone that had a wolf for a mate many years ago maybe she could give me some information.

After finishing my chores I made Mabel a cake and skipped off to see her she was a lovely old lady but due to her old age she didn’t get out much, I walked up her little path and knocked on the door lightly, “who is it?" I heard Mabel ask "its Hazel, I’ve brought you a cake" I shouted back through the door “come in girl don’t be waiting out there" she exclaimed I entered the house and smiled as I saw Mabel sat in her comfy armchair in the dinning room enjoying the view of her sweet garden, “I’ll make some tea and cut us a slice” I told her heading to the kitchen "sounds wonderful" she replied smiling at me I made the tea and cut us each a slice of cake and went to join her in the dinning room we sat in comfortable silence for awhile enjoying our tea and cake, “how are you girl, what have you been up to?" she asked me “everything's been ok, me and Mel went to a dance the other night that was good” I told her smiling to myself "oooooo there's a boy" Mabel  "how did you know?" I asked shocked "I can see him in your eyes child" I blushed “so who is he do I know him?” she asked "no I don’t think you do, he's err he's a wolf Mabel” I told her reluctantly Mabel sat back in her chair looking at me closely “you are his mate?” she asked quietly I looked down I forgot the powers this lady had of course she would know everything anyway, “yes", Mabel looked at me “now listen close girl, you be careful, our kind and wolves are known to be mates but it usually comes at a price they will make it difficult for you, some don’t like it don’t think its natural” she said shaking her head “I know all to well" she said looking out into the garden “how do you know Mabel” I asked gently "because I was the mate of a wolf’s” she said wistfully "was?" I pressed "yes, he felt the bond straight away my Liam, he knew I was his mate from the moment that he saw me, he came over to me and asked me to dinner there and then” she chuckled at the memory "I was taken aback I didn’t feel the bond then but something was telling me that he was safe and I should go with him, we met in secret for months and months I had my wings but to start with I didn't feel the bond just a pull towards him like a crush, but over the months it grew stronger and stronger and we both knew that we wanted to be together so we decided to go to the Alpha and tell him then we would go to the queen, we didn’t care where we ended up as long as it was together" she sighed standing up and retrieving a box from the cabinet across the room, “the Alpha knowing how the bond was and how strong for wolf’s it was granted us to be together and letting us have a house at the edge of the pack, we where ecstatic so all we had to do then was tell the queen and my family his family had welcomed me with open arms, when we told the queen she was sceptical but understood and said she was happy for us to live together in the house that the Alpha had provided for us, we couldn’t of been happier, then we went to tell my family my father forbid it and said he was going to send me away to another glade apparently that was the plan the whole time, he told me I had to reject my mate there and then but I couldn’t so we ran away together, we made it past the territory and out into the human village we thought we would hide out their for awhile safe that no one would use magic there but after a few months Liam's wolf grew restless from not being allowed out so one night he sneaked out while I was sleeping and let his wolf out for a run, that's when he was attacked by rogues and killed, I woke up the next morning and obviously I couldn’t find him so I ran around the town trying to find him, when I finally had to make my way back to our place my mother was there waiting for me, the pack had found Liam and had told them what had happened and my mother was able to track me down to tell me what had happened, I was beside myself I didn't know how my life could go on without Liam in it, so mother said it was best to go back and live in the village so I did, I lived as best I could with a constant ache in my heart to begin with it was crippling but now its just a dull ache that comes and goes, I have never been able to even look at another man my heart wont allow it, between a wolf and a fairy the bond is incredibly strong there isn’t any like it, a fairy may not be able to feel it as strong to begin with but after you have mated and been marked the power that resides in both of you is unparalleled that is why they don't like wolves and fairies being mates not because some silly idea that they shouldn't it is because they are so powerful when they are together there isn’t much that can stop them." I sat shocked after Mabel had finished “Tristan’s the Alpha" I whispered Mabel looked at me eyes wide "then you must not let anyone get between you, folktales once spoke of such a pair and they lived to rule many kingdoms once they had overcome their enemies, you will have lots of enemies my child but between you, you must be strong, if you have an alpha for a mate he will be well respected already and you will have a fighting chance at being together, but be warned some powers are hard to control even for an alpha” Mabel warned me I sat looking at her so many questions so many things I wanted to say but my mouth wouldn’t work "thank you Mabel you have been a great help” I told her honestly I sat awhile longer and she showed me pictures of Liam and when they where together, when I finally left my mind was still reeling from what she had told me I wanted to speak to Tristan but I had left my phone at home I raced back to get it so I could phone him and tell him all that Mabel had told me.
