48: Lily novel Fated to the Werewolf King
The moon shined in through the dark curtains, casting shadows across her black comforter. She knew it was late, but her mind just wouldn't shut down. She wished to blame it on wedding jitters, but the way her chest constricted with the usual panicked feeling, she knew it was worse than that. The idea of Karmina hunting her down specifically, the Supernatural world being much larger than she realized. Jayce knew. They all did, and she was kept out of the loop. He can say it was for her safety, but she thought he would know better by now.
Lily looked up into the dark of her canopy, one hand on her pounding chest while the other rested on her belly. All she wished was to keep her child safe, but could she really do that as a simple human being? She didn't have the strength and dominance as a Werewolf, even with Nox occupying a sliver of her soul, she was no match for whatever was out there.
A light tap on her window drew her attention. With the moon shining so bright, she didn't spot anything and figured it was just the wind. Yet another tap came, this time just a little bit louder. Lily sat up quickly, gazing at the window as another tap followed the second. She had seen horror movies that played out this way. A finger tapping on the window to get her attention, to draw her close until it trapped her. She wished she could push aside those thoughts, but she was three stories high.
She crept out of bed slowly, looking around for a weapon as another light tap contacted the glass, Should she call out for Erica? Maybe she'll just call Jayce, even if it was a silly request made by her, but when she looked at the nightstand, her phone was missing.
"Dammit, Isis took my phone away." she groaned softly. The tapping stopped, and she was tempted to crawl back into bed, but her curiosity got the best of her. She slipped up to the window, carefully pushing the curtain aside and glanced around. The moon sat gracefully in the clear, star lit sky. The dim lights of the path that wrapped around the side of the building casted the trees shadows, and someone else. Lily as quietly as she could, clicked the window lock open and pushed open the window. Down below was Jayce wearing his winter jacket and jeans. He had his arm pulled back slightly until she popped her head out and he lowered it.
"You scared the Hell out of me." she whispered angrily, but she couldn't deny that she was happy to see him. He dropped what she noticed were small rocks back to the ground, brushing his hands.
"I wasn't allowed through the front entrance, so I figured something a bit more romantic to gain your attention." he said, his breath creating foggy puffs of air in front of his face.
"As romantic as that sounded in your head, Romeo, didn't stop the horrors I thought of." she glanced down at the ledge, pouting, "Did you come to wish me goodnight?" she asked him. He blew into his hands.
"I tried calling you, but your phone was off." he said, glancing around. He took a few steps back into the tree line, and when she thought he might have disappeared, he took three large steps and leapt up onto the second story window ledge. Lily watched in amazement as he climbed from the second story window onto her own. She stepped away as he stepped into her room, shutting the window behind himself and locking it once more.
"Isis confiscated it to avoid, well, this." she gestured to him. He shook his hair as he took off his jacket, revealing a black tee beneath it. Lily took it and laid it over the back of a chair and turned on the lamp on her nightstand. When she gazed back at Jayce, she noticed he had cut his hair a bit. It was still long, but it no longer grazed his shoulders. He took off his boots, rubbing his hands together. She looked around, spotting a quilted blanket draped over the couch that sat in the corner of the room and wrapped it around his shoulders.
"I'm fine." he told her, but it didn't stop him from tightening the blanket around himself a bit. She smiled at his stubbornness, grabbing his arm and led him to her bed. It squeaked under his weight, and Lily held her breath as she waited for one of the Lunas to barge in, but to her surprise, all was quiet. She looked around her room, nearly the same size as their bedroom back home. It had a Texas King size bed that she felt tiny in, a lounging area tucked off into a corner and a flat screen TV mounted across from the bed. A set of white doors were closed off to her walk in closet where her wedding gown rested.
"How are you feeling?" she asked him, still standing in front of him. He inclined his head at her, his crimson eyes soft on her. He reached out to her, and when she took his hand, he pulled her onto his lap, wrapping the blanket around her as well. She found herself snuggling against him instantly, melting into his warmth.
"Nervous." he said, gazing down at her, "I knew this day was coming, and yet I can't seem to get my heart to slow down." he told her. She was a bit surprised he spoke so honestly. Before he was tight lipped, barely expressing his emotions aside from anger, but now he was opening up his heart to her. She played with his shirt mindlessly as her eyes traveled around her room.
"Same, but it's not so much for that reason." she admitted. He tightened his hold around her, his hand reaching up to lift her chin so she was looking at him.
"I know, I sensed it. It was part of the reason why I rushed over here." he said, his thumb brushing against her cheek lightly. Sometimes she disliked that their bond was so strong, but she was grateful for it to. "You can talk to me, Lily, you know you always can." he encouraged her. She chewed her bottom lip, wondering where to start.
"For starters, I just want our wedding to go off without a hitch. No crazy exes, no violence, no death. I want to be able to celebrate our love for one another without any hindrance." Lily started to speak her mind, slowly finding it easier to talk about it than withholding it.
"Second, I feel like there is so much more to the world now than what I knew in history books. What sucks is that you kept it from me. I know you want to protect me, to protect your family, but I want to protect you to." she felt her emotions shake her voice. She took a deep breath before continuing on.
"I want to be a good Luna for your people. I want you to depend on me just like how I depend on you. I know I'm not a Werewolf and I'm weak, but I know I will give my all to you when you ask for it," she said. She mentally pushed back her tears that stung the back of her eyes as she looked up at him. A part of her half expected him to straight up tell her she had no reason to know the workings of his world, that it was better to be safe than sorry. She watched his eyes though, how they shimmered in the lamp light. She felt his hand move away from her waist and rest on her belly.
"You're right. I kept secrets from you. Not just because I want to keep you and our child safe, but because sometimes it's just easier to feign ignorance." he cocked his head as he contemplated his next words, "To soothe your mind about the wedding, I already have my soldiers in place. No one will have clearance to attend that doesn't live within my pack or already a part of the wedding party."
"The last time we had security, Jasper still managed to get inside our home." she countered. The corner of his lip lifted in a snarl, but he sighed.
"I know. I failed on keeping you safe that day, and a few times after that as well." he frowned, his forehead creasing slightly. Lily reached up and rested her hand on his cheek.
"You didn't fail me. You saved me from Jasper. You saved me from Lukas. I just felt the need to do something. I didn't want to sit still and wait for whatever happens to happen. I wanted to confirm Jasper was still around, even though it would have risked putting me in danger. I wanted to sway your dad and Lukas because I believed full heartedly that I could convince them to put their trust in me." her mind went back to Lukas' Wolf, "I hoped to put his Wolf at ease before he passed on." she blinked away the tears. Jayce leaned into her hand.
"Lily, you are an extraordinary woman. There is no doubt in my mind that you will be an excellent Luna. You have this energy that draws people in. I feel it all the time. I witnessed it first hand at the fall solstice when you opened up about your abuse in front of the entire pack. I watched my people listen to your every word." he nodded his head toward her bedroom door, "I watched the same effect happen to the Alphas and their Lunas. Being human doesn't mean that you are weak. You have your own strengths that none of us could compare to." he leaned down and kissed between her brows.
"You make it sound like I have some super power." she joked, but his eyes showed how serious he was.
"Maybe that is your power. The way you communicate with people, having them listen to your every word. Maybe you're actually a Witch." he said, kissing her cheek next. She let out a soft giggle, pressing her hand against his chest.
"I highly doubt that's the case." she smiled as he rubbed his cheek against hers. She brushed her fingers over his smooth jawline.
"You've definitely bewitched me." he grazed his lips against her neck, leaving soft kisses on her skin. She shivered in response, moving so she straddled his lap. His hands moved around her waist, his fingers lifting her shirt. She reached down and stopped his hands from pursuing. He growled in protest.
"You still have some answering to do." she informed him. He grumbled against her neck before sitting back, looking at her.
"I did plan on telling you about what else the Supernatural world contained, but only when the time was right." Jayce's jaw twitched slightly, "Due to recent events, I don't think I can prevent hiding it from you." Lily moved so she sat beside him on the bed. He placed a hand on her thigh, squeezing it gently and she settled her hand over his.
"This is what I know." he began, "The common Supernatural species known to humanity are the Werewolves, Vampires and Witches. We are the only three races that don't mind being out in the open, however, since we're vastly different, a treaty had been created between the Supernatural beings and humankind.
"Though it was just the three main races, the treaty states that it classified all Supernatural beings, but the humans outside the white house wouldn't have a single clue how deep our world is." he ran his fingers through his hair, letting it slowly fall back into place.
"Of course, humankind was never afraid to create their stories which were claimed as myths and legends without proper evidence." he clicked his tongue.
"So, the Lochness monster?" she asked him. He raised a brow at her.
"Why do humans refer to him as a monster? He simply just wants to live his life, yet everyone wants to continuously invade his territory." he said with slight annoyance in his tone. Lily moved so she was sitting on her knees, staring at Jayce with wonder.
"You've met him?" her voice squealed a little too loudly. He clasped his hand over her mouth, eyes darting to the door. They waited and waited. When they didn't hear anyone, he slowly released her mouth.
"A few times. We vacationed in Scotland for a summer." he went on. Lily could feel her jaw hit her lap as she listened to him. "It was mere coincidence that I met him."
"What about dragons?" she leaned in closer. He chuckled at her.
"No, sorry. Those are myths and will stay as such." he said. Lily's smile dropped as she sat away a bit. He squeezed her thigh gently.
"You mentioned Demons before." she brought up. Jayce shifted his gaze away from her, visibly uncomfortable about the subject.
"Yes." he rubbed the back of his neck, "I don't know much about them, honestly, and I'd prefer not to know. I've never met one, and I hope I never do." he finally met her gaze. He reached up and cupped her cheek with his large hand.
"Then tell me about Witches." she said. He let out a sigh as he placed a lock of her hair behind her ear.
"There are the two factions; Light and Dark Witches. Light Witches from my understanding are more about Healing and the Elements. Dark Witches are rumored to have practiced Necromancy and curses." he grimaced. "I've met a Light Witch once. Sweet woman. Owns a bookstore in northern Wisconsin."
"And Karmina is a Dark Witch, right? Yet she's managing to influence the world of the living? What if she's not actually dead?" she asked him. Jayce's eyes darkened as he thought her question over.
"It could be possible, and if that were the case, I would be expected to meet with the other leaders to discuss this then." he pulled off the blanket, moving so he sat with his back against the headboard. Lily watched as he opened his arms to her and she practically dove into them. He chuckled deeply as she maneuvered so she snuggled against his side. He grabbed her comforter, pulling it up to her shoulders. Jayce reached over, turning off the light and leaned back against the board, rubbing her arm slowly.
"Who are the other Supernatural leaders?" Lily whispered.
"Dante Iscariot, he's the original Vampire." Jayce said with distaste, "He's been around since Christ was crucified."
"Wait, Iscariot? Isn't that the same last name as Judas?" she asked him.
"It is." he put up a finger, "It is written that he was an only child," Jayce shrugged, "which also means Dante's existence was hidden from humanity for obvious reasons."
"How did he become a Vampire?" Lily asked him. He grumbled softly, running his fingers through her hair and started to massage in slowly circles. She felt her eyes get heavy as she rested her head on his chest, his heart beating against her ear.
