The Special People Chapter 74
“But so easy to sneak out when you’re young.” I say, giving him an even look. Why do Sarian and him work so well together?“Isaac ,” He warns.“I’ve been on my own for three decades handling far more dire situations than this. I can handle myself.”“No one is doubting that.” Alier says, breaking into our conversation. “However, this man has proven himself as to be incredibly dangerous. He managed to separate you and bite you. He could have killed you.”“Which is exactly why I need to put him down now.” I argue. “I survived the bastard, and so far, I’m the only one in this room to have tracked him down twice. To bench me because of a birth mark is ludicrous.”“Isaac , we can’t afford to lose you.”“There are more important people in this room than me. Let me do my job. I’m good at it. I’ll take precautions, and I’ll have Wilson with me at all times.”Serina touches my shoulder, still looking away. “Let us talk about it. For now, please let us talk.”“If I’m the topic, I should stay.”“

“Maybe for a bit of fun.” I say as I grin, his jaw dropping again when he hears the bell tone in my voice. “Careful, it’s the Siren effect of my ancestors. It’s especially effective on males. Stay out of the water.” I warn, noticing he’s about to set foot in it. “When you get wet, the effect gets stronger.” After he jumps and takes a step back I laugh. “Also, it was my turn to show you something new.”“Get out of there so I can talk to you.” Silas says as he partially covers his ears.I let out a full laugh. “I’m not wearing clothes under here.”His face goes red, and he immediately turns around. “Please come out Isaac .”“It’d be easier if I had dried clothes. I’ll beat you back to the castle.” I look up and see Wilson looking down with annoyance. “Do you want to be nice and give him a lift?”Wilson lets out a loud roar before leaping from the cliff. I watch as she pops up from the water and starts swimming towards the beach. “Wilson will give you a lift. Some advice, she likes chin

I hear him gasp as he straightens but I’m already walking away. I whistle, signaling Wilson. Not how I was planning on spending my day. Gotta love mating season. Not.The second I’m outside I see Wilson running towards me. I jump onto her and allow her to take me away as I hear my name being called behind me.Wilson takes me into the jungle while I stuff down my irrational feelings. I head to Estra. It’s a little wooden town with a library in a clear building. They serve food and drinks there while patrons can read inside and bake in the sun, or rest on the beach to read. It’s also where all deaths are reported and cataloged. Of course, you have to be a Guardian to access this record.When I enter the building, I order a starroot drink. The waitress gives me a smirk and a wink and walks away. I roll my eyes as I feel several eyes turning towards me. Why yes, I had sex everyone. Tis the season. Even though sex is encouraged this time of year, it’s still treated with schoolish giggles.

“I never gave you my name,” I tell her as her face morphs to a slender face with ocher eyes and sea glass colored hair. She stares at me with blank eyes as her body begins to break down into dust, confirming that this is a created feral. That book wasn’t lying, and she was trying to isolate me. That can only mean one thing, and that is to run.I whistle loudly when that realization hits me. I get to my feet as a sense of impending doom starts creeping in. I strap my blade to my thigh as I look at the corpses of the dead ferals; giving further evidence that they were born and not created.I swing onto Wilson. “Yole,” I say as I double tap her leg. I feel her legs slip slightly as she tries to gain traction on the ground. My signal is for her to not stop, no matter what. She knows there is danger when I do this, so she lets out a massive roar, making birds fly out of the trees, calling for her brothers and sisters.Only ten minutes into our run, I hear a dark chuckling. “There is my litt

“But I want Wilson,” I whine in a hoarse voice, slightly surprised I’m able to talk.“Isaac !” Sarian breathes in relief as I open my eyes. All I can see is his chin as he kisses my forehead. “Are you okay,” he asks as he straightens and starts stroking my hair.“Dad,” I breathe as I grimace, the pain already beginning to start. I had more time last time, but I have more of a concentration this time. “I hurt.” I gasp as I clutch my shoulder.“I know baby,” he says as he shifts himself under me, trying to sit me up. I am able to see a wall. It’s shiny and has a thin layer of water flowing down into pathway pools in the ground. For those who are needed to be treated in an Aquanian form. We’re in the Emergency Care Center, so this must be serious.He kisses the back of my head as I notice a woman with pale yellow hair and is wearing a navy skirt and thin wrap around her chest, making it easier to shift her to nymph form in case of emergency. I can tell she’s a nymph because her ears are

“That should have been my first warning.” Ronan admits. “Mike was about to make us into balham chow if it wasn’t for Leo. He distracted him enough for us to get away on Lubo. Lubo managed to swing back and get Leo once he got us to a safe distance. If Mike wasn’t recovering from some stab wounds, we’d be dead.”“You’re welcome then.” I wince. “His bites are painful.”“Yes, yes they are.” Leo says, sitting up. “And you two are welcome for the save. Also thank Isaac . She’s the one that told me to go get you idiots.”“You’re lucky you only got one.”“Why yes they are.” Vanna cuts in, walking into the room with a grin on her face. “Tell them where he bit you.”“It’s obvious, isn’t it?” I say as I motion towards the bite mark on my neck and shoulder, while giving her wide and pointed eyes.She flashes me a grin as a man with raven colored hair walks in. It flows in thick waves to the ends of his shoulder. He’s chosen the traditional avian stance of not wearing a shirt, which I’m not rea

“Exsanguinate curse. It’s similar to how a feral drains its victim’s powers after a bite. Basically, it will bleed its victim until it returns to the caster. It’s either death or return. The spell is active until the caster, or victim, dies.”“Are you kidding me?” Owen yells.“Yeah, and the thing is, the further the caster, the stronger the spell.” I say as I plop my face on the bed.“So how did you break it last time?”“I died.” I hate doing that.“No, seriously.” He slightly chuckles, his voice high in his anxiety.Vanna takes over. “She is. Isaac stabs herself with her blessed blade, and I simulate death long enough for the spell to break. I stop her heart by forcing her blood to stop. Unfortunately, it’ll knock her out for a week, and it makes her grumpy. And grumpy is putting it nicely. Nightmare is only half of it. As in, she will attempt to kill the next living thing she sees if you even breathe too loud.”“I told you I had a migraine,” I mutter defensively.“Oh just die alrea

“Elayna and I started talking, and she was so sweet. She had such strength in her words and her laugh that I couldn’t believe she was sick. Elayna wouldn’t stop talking about her brothers. Silas and Morgain, especially Morgain. She tried bragging to me about him, by saying they had secret names for each other and everything. I believe her favorite moment with you two was when Morgain took a cooked pig, removed all the stuffing from its carved out carcass, and put it on the seat of a man she liked, instantly scaring him. It’s her last memory of the three of you together, which is why she loved it. It was right before she got so sick.“Anyway, after a while, she started feeling tired and she didn’t want me to leave since she said she was always alone. Elayna started having a panic attack when I told her that I’d just come back after she was awake. To calm her, I slept with her. I laid right next to her until she had woken every single time for the next two years.“It wasn’t long before

If there is a chance behind that cold wall he is capable of feeling rejection, I don’t really want him to feel it from me. I don’t want to be the one who gave up. I will be careful, but right now I want him to know I want to try.So, I reach out and grasp his hand in mine.He smiles sleepily. “Much better”“You know his lips look a little cold too”“Levi!” Isaac grumbles.“I thought I was the wing man?” Levi shrugs.Isaac doesn’t look that upset... I think I might even see a hint of a smile as I chuckle at the two of them. Soon Isaac leans his head back again and falls asleep.I’ll just hold his hand a little longer.-May“She is gonna be here any minute” I mumble against his lips as they tease mine.My mate responds by groaning in protest and pulling me closer causing me to giggle.It’s not like I wasn’t already crammed against him in the small play house that rests just inside the woods behind Robert’s parents’ home.I typically have higher standards for make-out locations.

“Alright party people, lets get this show on the road!” I giggle nervously and nod before chancing a glance behind at Isaac . He meets my eyes looking tired but other wise emotionless. I eye him narrowly with a glare and let my frustration flood the link between us, unsure if he was even paying attention through that thick wall of his.Turning I adjust myself in my seat and pull out my phone to keep me busy on the drive.I had been working on my linking while my family was still here but with them gone and me not yet being a part of Isaac and Levi’s pack – if I ever become apart of it- I was unable to practice or use the link for the last few days. Only Isaac would be able to talk to me now and we both have been avoiding that.I imagine that the link or bond I have with Isaac works in a similar way to a pack link, and I could learn to keep him out if I try. I don’t get how I have started to be able to keep my thoughts to myself in wolf form but Freddy, Chris and Alpha Cold heart ca

I chose not to make eye contact with Isaac as he is wheeled out of the make shift hospital. I had just finished loading up a few things in the car to make this trip easier.It has almost been a week since he was poisoned but the recovery has been slow. Isaac still spends most of his time sleeping and it frustrates him to be so weak. The slightest activity seems to make him tired.It frustrates ME that he is a stubborn ass.My mate has spent his every waking moment pushing himself by dealing with pack business and trying to get out of bed. I took pity on him the first night he had ripped his IVs out and caused a commotion, now I know I shouldn’t have.He has been such a handful. Willfully disregarding Greta’s orders to the point that I was on board when she threatened to strap him down two days ago.Boy did that Idea go over well.Lucky for Isaac Levi took pity on him and talked us down.I roll my eyes remembering how ridiculous he was being yelling at us to stop babying him and hol

I squeeze my eyes shut, willing more power to be put into the spell, “Summer wood and deity ties, bring these lines to boundaries defined. Expand this protection with the flow of desired correction. Right to what has been outlined.”I hear Silas shout and Wilson growl. I start shouting the spell. “Summer wood and deity ties, bring these lines to boundaries defined. Expand this protection with the flow of desired correction. Right to what has been outlined.”“Stop Isaac !” Mike begs. “You can’t stop this spell.“Stay away from her,” Silas orders.“Please!” He screams as he begs.I feel the thunder shake the ground, and I open my eyes in enough time to see lightning strike the center of the anchor in the ward as it shatters. The earth turns black and spreads out from under me, killing the trees and grass within a mile of us.I pant as my hands clench the dead earth. Sweat has beaded on my forehead, and I try to catch my breath as the boys struggle behind me. I get to my feet very shaki

I give Mike my wrist, my blood still freely flowing. “Squeeze my blood onto each paper and say; Deliver these to Goddess Kaelish, protector of Linru. Bring what’s true in this discovered news.”He gives me a questioning look, and I didn’t miss that his neck is tense. “Why?”“Because I can’t.” I motion to my bonds.He gives me a cautious look, trying to determine if he can trust me. “Why?”“You literally have me chained to a bed, just trust me.” I say, glaring at him.Mike follows my instructions, nearly jumping out of his skin as the pages start smoking. “What are you doing Isaac ?”“Relax,” I say, the flames turning turquoise, signaling they’ve been received. When Kaelish accepts them, the flames dissipate, leaving the pages in their original state. I hand them back to him. “There, now it’s in Kaelish’s hands.”“How much magic do you actually know?” Mike asks, looking me over as if he’s seeing me for the first time.I shrug. “Almost everything. I can’t speak the original spells, b

When I find them, huddled behind Isongarth’s statue, they are clearly talking about me. I’m in no mood to explain myself, though I really should tell Silas about Alier. That can wait until after my very much needed nap.I ignore their conversation and surprised expressions as I sit down cross legged next to Silas. Skipping past looking at them, slightly annoyed they’re talking about me, I pull out a sariah petal and wipe it against one of my bloody wounds. I lay it next to me and bring a trail of salt to it, linking the other spells. I look to Leo. “Repeat after me.”After he nods, I prick my finger and pour seawater over the new wound, right over the sariah petal I had just placed, chanting as I pour. “Summer wood and deity ties, bring these lines to boundaries defined. Expand this protection with the flow of desired correction. Right to what has been outlined.”Leo starts copying me, touching my heart with his hand, flowing my power with his. “Summer wood and deity ties, bring these

“I will see you again. I will find out what you’re up to Isaac . I didn’t know you knew this much about magic, so it’s going to take me a minute.”“I’m more than the girl that you keep trying to sink your teeth into.” I tell him, walking away from him. “I know more than fighting.”“Wait,” He grunts, trying to sit up. “Did you really know Elayna?”I look behind me, trying to keep my face cold. I hold up my hand and wipe off some blood from my wrists. I point to the healed dainty fang marks. “For two years I kept her alive with my blood. Every second of every day we were together. She was a sister to me, and I miss her terribly. Her death nearly destroyed me. I knew everything about her, except for most of her family. I knew she had brothers, but nothing more than that. She would shut down and close herself off whenever that topic was broached, and I knew it was because she was purposely distancing herself so not to hurt them.“Before you ask, she never did tell me about you. She never

Well, I’m dead anyway. I walk into his room to quickly skim through his books. Nothing here can tell me what blasted spell he’s using. I need to think. Something here has to help me escape. I’ve read all of these books! I kick his bed as I try to think. Think Isaac , I shout internally as I try to slow my breathing. I kick his bed again and here a thump. I look under the bed and see Yvanna’s book. It was tucked underneath his mattress, pinned by a board. I grab it and tuck it into my bag as I try to think. I mean outside of using forbidden magic.Several hours later I’m still at a loss and trapped in this god forsaken room. The windows are sealed. His bedroom door is now locked. The only thing I can go into, is his adjoining bathroom. My head is resting against the warm wall while I sit on his surprisingly warm floor. I keep hitting my head against the wall as I try to think. Maybe if I pretend to be here waiting for him, like a loving mate, then he’ll let me off the hook. Nah.I hear
