Rage continues to fill my body as I walk down the backyard, I can feel the wolf clawing to break out of my skin, I start running, through the backyard, into the forest behind the house, the need to feel free, to let nature consume my sensors overthrow my thoughts. I run and run for what feels like forever, my anger fills my body to the core until my wolf rips my body into two, sprouting to life, my clothes fall to the ground as the wolf inside me takes over. The moist crisp air fills my senses, the sweet smell of tree sap, the salty smell of the ocean not far from where I am, the feel of moist dirt beneath my paws, the blades of grass hitting against my snout, all these new senses continue to fill my body, my wolf feels completely free, the anger begins to fade from my body. Pure, clear, sniff sniff, I begin to sniff around as a clear, pure scent pours over my senses, the wolf races towards the scent, joy fills my body, I wonder what could smell so so delightful. I pull up near a a crystal-clear river, prancing along the riverbed, enveloping myself in the serene smells, the relaxing views, the trees hanging high above, letting small bursts of sunlight through the clouds of leaves. I prance to the side of the river, sipping up water from the river, my eyes closed as I allow the flavour to sit on my taste buds, I open my eyes, the reflection that stares back at me snaps me out of my serenity. The face of a wolf, black and white split down the middle, green eyes glowing in the blue water, I stare in shock, the realisation that I truly am a werewolf hits me, I observe my wolf as if I'm looking at a complete stranger. My wolf seems considerably smaller compared to the others, almost sickeningly small, like my wolf is dying, but I'm stronger the Damien, that's what they all seem to think anyway, I find my wolf walking into the river. The water envelops my body, the cold of the water hitting against every joint, relieving the pain the previous nights transformation, the anger and confusion that had built up in my body. I lay in the river, allowing the negative emotions to fall out of my body,
"I could look at you lay there all day", an unknown yet familiar voice sans me out of my bliss, I snap my head in his direction, his cold blue eyes pierce my soul, his jet-black hair falls around his face,
"Huh? What are you doing here?", I question as I swim to the edge of the river, realising I transformed back to my human self, my very naked human self, he extends his hand to help me out of the river, reluctantly I grab onto his hand, his skin cold to the touch, sending shivers down my spine, an unfamiliar sensation filling me, my feet slip from under me as I climb up the river, he grabs me by the waist steadying me against his body, his tall, firm thick body,
"I've been waiting for this Amaris", he whispers into my ears, pure ecstasy flowing through his voice,
"Huh?", I look up into his eyes, "What do you mean, you've been waiting for this? You only met me a while ago", his eyes filled with hunger and pleasure, my body aches from his touch, he rotates my body pushing from the rivers edge, I follow his movements without a tinge of hesitation, his eyes fall to my lips, his hands outlining the curves of my body, he pushes me against a nearby tree, 'I can't be doing this! I am with Damien!', He presses his lips against mine,
"I'm sorry Amaris, but I can't help myself, I've been waiting for so long and you're standing in front of me so vulnerable, and perfect", he evokes something from me, a feeling I've never felt before, his lips fall back onto mine, his hands wrap around my body, pushing my hips into him, his tongue parts my lips and dances with mine. A small moan escapes my mouth, "Oh, you sound so good Amaris", he moves his hand between my legs as the other braces my back, slowly he begins rubbing my willing sensitive clit, my
body falls into his as the pleasure encases me, he steals every breathe from me, every stroke of his fingers, and every sweep of his tongue heats my skin to a need I've never felt before. I yank my mouth away with a gasp, cocking my head away from his,
"I can't be doing this", I breath as I push him away and begin to walk, he grabs onto my wrist, pulling me against him,
"Amaris", he moans, "I need you", his raspy voice provokes me, I allow him to pull me back into his body, he pulls me into him, his large chest lays against my back as he drapes his arms around me, one hand cups my breast, his fingers softly stroke my nipple, while his other hands slowly snakes down to continue rubbing my clit,
"I'm with Damien", I confess through a low moan, my body melting into his, every stroke pushing me closer to ho him, as this feeling I can't control, overwhelms me,
"I know Amaris", he pushes his body closer to mine, I can feel his cock throbbing against my naked ass, his mouth moves across my neck, I pull away, turning to face him, I can see the fire burning in his eyes, the light trickles in from the leaves of the trees, delicately outlining the features of his face, the wolf within me begs for me to give into him,
"Oh, you're going to be an addiction I can't scratch", I whisper to myself, grabbing the back of his neck and pulling him into a kiss, I give in to the burning sensation, allowing myself to lose all control of my body, his hands rake around my body, grabbing onto my ass pulling me closer, he lifts me up against him and I drape my legs around his back. I rub against him as the kiss deepens, every stroke of his tongue, burns the flame within me, he kisses down my neck until he reaches my perked-up nipples, I throw my head back as a moan escapes my mouth as he takes one into his mouth, his hand braces my back strongly as he slowly lays me onto the ground, the pressure of him on top of me feels magnetic, as if he is supposed to be there, I move my hands up his back, feeling every groove and toned muscle, I scratch down his back as the movements of his tongue on my nipple, forces me into another moan, my hips force themselves into his crotch. I push him up, flipping him over, I pull myself on top of him, my legs cradle his sides as I rub against him, I pull him into a kiss, pushing my body against his as tight as I can, I pull at his shirt, tugging at it to remove it,
"Amaris! Amaris! Where are you?", I hear someone screaming in the distance, the voice sounding familiar to my ears, I quickly quirk up as I realise who it is, my hands drop from his shirt, his shirt falling back down his chest,
"Damien!", fear sits in my throat, the thought of getting caught not only frightening me, but exciting me, the guy beneath me pulls me closer, kissing the nape of my neck, he flips me over, resting his body on top of mine, he rips his shirt from his body, my eyes can't focus on anything but the muscles that sculpt his body, he reaches down his body, unzipping his pants, pulling them down around his knees. He grabs my thighs and pulls me towards him, without stopping he braces my legs around his hips and slowly pushes his length into me, I brace myself for pain as my body adjusts to his size, he thrusts his hips, pushing himself into me again and again, "Amaris! Where are you?", Damien shouts again, pulling me out of this trance of pleasure, for a second before I am forced back into the trance, as he thrusts himself into me again, I arch my back allowing him to have easier access to me, "oh god, more", I moan, he continues to thrust into me, the need within him radiating through his eyes, he leans into me, taken me into a kiss as he rocks his hips over and over, pushing me to the edge, "Amaris, you feel so good", he moans into my ear, I feel the heat of his climax fill inside me just as he brings me to the end. I lay next to him amongst the leaves as we try to catch our breathes.
"Amaris!", I hear Damiens voice in the distance again,
"I'll get going now, I would stay but I don't want you to get hurt", he whispers as he leans over me, he brings his lips to my forehead forcing my eyes to close, "I'll see you again Amaris", as I open my eyes I see him pull his clothes back on and disappear into the forest. I move to the edge of the water, sitting with my feet dangling in the water as I think about what I just did, 'I love Damien, I think anyway, so why? Why did I just allow someone I don't know fuck me in a forest?',
"Amaris! There you are?", I feel Damien wrap his arms around me, the warmth of his body enveloping me, I sit in silence, pondering what I am going to say to him, "I'm sorry my little pup, I just don't know how to tell you about your father, when I don't even know the full truth, but whatever questions you have I'll answer them",
I look him in the eyes, "I", I pause for a moment, "I can't be with someone who doesn't tell me the whole truth Damien", the irony filling my mind with guilt.
"Amaris, all you have to do is ask and I'll answer if I can", I look at him my eyes swelling with guilt and lean into his arms trying to hide my shame, "I'm so sorry my little puppy, I didn't mean to make you cry", he removes his jacket putting it around me as I am still sitting naked next to the lake, "I know you have a lot of questions, and have gone through a lot these last few months, but I promise you I am here for you", he utters as he wraps his arms around me pulling me into his chest.
"Why is my wolf form unsettling?",
"Huh, oh ah we just have never heard of that type of pattern before on a wolf before", I get up from where I stand, letting the jacket fall from my shoulders,
"I'm going home now", I state, turning away from him and walking through the forest.
A few days go by, I have been avoiding Damien, to allow myself time to consider everything that has happened. The man with jet-black hair keeps running into me while at school, another person in my life I'm trying my hardest to avoid. I wait in line in the cafeteria as I try to get some lunch, Damien stands behind me trying to ask me why I've been avoiding him, I can feel his gaze racking over me, I turn to face him, my face blushes instantly as my eyes lock on his, my mind races to the events that happened in the forest, the feeling of him on top of me, the heat between my legs at just his touch, I squander the thoughts as quickly as they fill my thoughts.
"I'm going to go", I say to Damien as I place down my tray before I leave the cafeteria, "Please don't follow me Damien, I just need some time alone", I feel both pair of eyes follow me out of the cafeteria.
I find myself sitting on the edge of the rooftop of the school, I sit in silence, trying to figure out what I am doing with my life, 'I'm somehow a werewolf, I Royal Alpha at that, Damien knows more about my family then I seem to and not only is Damien lying to me about it, but I'm lying to him as I had sex with a stranger who seems to know me just a few days ago',
"Amaris", I hear someone whisper in my ear, the noise shocked me so much a jumped a little and slipped from the edge of the rooftop. As I begin to fall, I feel a strong hand wrap around my waist, he pulls me from the edge gripping me tight not to let me fall any further, I lean back into him, his face coming inches from mine, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to startle you off the edge", his raspy voice is intoxicating. He pulls me off the edge completely, the bottom of my legs scratching concrete a little bit snatching at my pants, my feet fall to the ground with a crunch as I try to gain balance.
"You can put me down now", he continues to hold my waist pulling me hard against him, the distinct smell that disgusted me once feels my senses, I turn around quickly to find the tall guy with jet-black hair standing above me, the smell that's falls from him disgusts me, but I can't help but be enchanted by his strong features, the cold blue eyes, the jet-black hair that's frames his face perfectly, the slight scar on his eyebrow that I didn't realise before in the forest. 'Oh my god the forest, this is, oh no',
"You've been avoiding me Amaris", he states as he looks at me straight in the eyes, "I get it, we did something we shouldn't have, I apologise, I have been waiting for so long I couldn't help myself", he says sincerity hanging in his voice,
"Of course, I'm avoiding you", I choke, "you're a stranger, who I…uh…you know fucked in the forest… when I have a boyfriend", I start coughing up the words,
"Amaris, are you ok?",
"Wait how do you know my name?", I question, "I've been meaning to ask since that day in the hall, also what do you mean you've been waiting for me?",
"I'll explain everything Amaris, but I can't here", he looks around suspiciously, "Will you come with me, I need to show you something". I instinctively hold on to his hand tighter, he pulls me in close to him, I feel mesmerized by him, I can't explain my feelings towards this man. "it's ok Amaris I won't hurt you", I pull my hand away from his,
"I can't just come with you, I don't even know you, and you seem to know who I am which is incredibly weird", I say nervously,
"My name is Felix, Felix Nex, that is all I can tell you right now",
"Why! Why can't you tell me more than just your name?", I shout,
"I can tell you just not here, there's too many people here that can hear", Felix replies softly, "I want to tell you everything, I have to tell you everything, I have been waiting for you we have been waiting for you", Felix gently takes my hand in his, "please just come with me, we won't be going too far", I nod nervously.
Felix walks to the edge of the roof, he takes me in his arms and jumps, I small scream escapes my lips. Felix buries my head into his shoulder, we softly land onto the ground below, and he gently puts my fit onto the ground, grabbing my hand and starts walking towards the forest line. as we approach the edge of the forest, I can hear Damien yelling out my name, I turn around, but I can't see him anywhere. 'Amaris where are you going?', His voice it's in my head, I forgot that we were all connected in our minds, some more than others, 'I'll be back, I just need some air', I reply back I take off with Felix, the connection to Damien getting weaker and weaker the further we get into the forest. Felix comes to a stop at the cliff I was at the other night,
"Why are we here Felix", i question nervously,
"This is the spot where everything began, between the werewolves and the vampires, the curse was put on both the races in this spot, thousands of years ago, and this has been the spot where the clans will go to elect the king and queens of the clans",
"Wait what!! Vampires exist too?", I question, Felix laughs hysterically,
"It's not surprising at all that they would only tell you about the werewolves, they do despise us vampires as we do them", Felix continues to laugh, "But you should learn the history of both considering you are both a vampire and a werewolf", Felix states hesitantly,
"Me a vampire?", I laugh, "Yea... right...", I look at him confusing and concerning flowing through my mind,
"Your father he was born a vampire, but he decided to leave his vampire side behind and become a werewolf when he mated with your mother, who was born a werewolf, werewolf bites normally kill vampires, unless they are mated and mark each other, then the vampire will become a werewolf as did happen with your father. However, us vampires believe because you were conceived before your dad was a werewolf that you are also a vampire", Felix explains, "We need you Amaris, such as the wolves we need a leader for our clan, your dad abandoned us and you are next in line", my nerves take over and I laugh hysterically,
"So... you're trying to tell me I am both a werewolf and vampire royal", I shout,
"Yes", Felix states,
"Wait if my father was a vampire then you know who my father is? where he is? where is he?", I plead with Felix,
"I am not sure where he is, I know him yes, but he disappeared from our circles a few years before you were born", he explains.
I pace around the cliff side, the sun is beginning to fade in the distance as clouds slowly form above, "If I'm a vampire why don't I have any of the abilities that supposedly come with being a vampire, I mean I don't sparkle or burn in the sun, I don't have a need to feed on blood, I've never had super strength, speed, hearing or smell, well at least not until my werewolf form showed itself?" I question, Felix lets out a chuckle to my question,
"We aren't cursed to burn or sparkle in the sun that is just fictional nonsense, we lose some of our abilities like getting slower, or weaker, you might say we get sick if we are in the sun too long, but we do not die, burst into flames or sparkle", Felix explains, "and we aren't sure why you don't have any abilities most are born with bloodlust, and gain abilities based on their personalities and physique as they get older, it may be the spell that was put on you when you were younger or it might be that the wolf is suppressing them we aren't sure", Felixs expression changes from his amusement to serious, "we need to know if your one of us Amaris, your families bloodline is important to our survival and you are the last of them now".
"Yea well the werewolves are saying the exact same thing, and at least I have wolf, how the fuck am I supposed to prove I'm a vampire as well?", I exclaim,
"We are not sure Amaris, but I need you to try", Felix grabs my hand, his eyes piercing mine, pleading for my help, "we really need you to try, I can help you find the journal your father left for you", he says quietly, I quickly pull away from him,
"How'd you know about the journal?", I question suspiciously,
"You thought about it", he says cheerily, "I can see some of your thoughts sometimes, I'll see you again Amaris, but it's dangerous for me to be around here at night, I'll explain more next time I see you. I'll try and find the journal for you. Please be careful, you can't trust everyone, they all have ulterior motives including me", He plants a gently kiss on my forehead, and walks to the edge,
"Wait what do you mean you have ulterior motives", I question,
"I told you, I've been waiting a long time for you", he whispers, "your dad arranged your marriage with me before you were even born, your dad promised his first-born daughter to the vampire in line for the throne in my bloodline which just so happens to be me, your to be my wife", he yells as he jumps from the cliff into the water below.
"His wife?", I say shockingly, I stand at the cliff watching the water below me, processing all the news I just received. I'm supposed to get married? to Felix? wait I'm supposed to be a vampire? a royal vampire? "WHAT THE FUCK!!!" I yell out into the ocean, as I fall down on to the ground, I watch the sky above slowly move, while not moving an inch for who knows how long. I was trying to avoid everything, and everyone, a fucked Felix but am supposed to be with Damien but apparently now I've been promised to Felix anyways. What the hell am I going to do.
