The Alpha and The Protector [Editing in Progress]

Chapter 18

We all got home an hour later. That was how long it took to separate the new couple. In the end, they just exchanged numbers and a few winks.

"I missed you!" Liam ran up to me, enveloping me in a hug, suffocating me with his strength.

"It's only been a few hours," my voice was muffled against his chest.

"Still. Three hours too long."

Finally, he released me. He leaned back, his eyes still on me. "I love you."

I smiled, feeling my heart flutter. "I love you too."

Then he leaned in, I met him half way. Our lips collided, sparks were practically shooting out. My lips loved against his in sync, where we fitted perfectly. His arm slid down to my waist, tugging my body towards his. My fingers tangled in his hair, tugging them lightly, emitting a groan from him. Before Liam deepened the kiss, there was a loud bang. I jumped back surprised, my eyes still a bit dazed.

A member of our pack, Joseph came around the corner, a frantic look in his eyes.

"Faeries."

This immediately perked my attention, and the way Liam's hold tightened around me confirmed he was interested too.

"You've tracked them?" I asked hopefully. These past days, our best tractors have been out and about sniffing out the Faeries' hideout.

"Yes and No."

"Okay," Liam spoke up. "Pack meeting in ten. We'll continue this there where everyone can be able to know what's going on." Then he looked over at me, raising an eye brow. "You in?"

I looked at him incredulously, "and miss this? Dude, you're crazy."

He grinned at me, kissing the top of my head. Then he nodded over at Joseph.

I went upstairs to change my clothes. I decided on some loose jeans and a fitting hello kitty shirt.

'Pack Meeting commencing.'

I raised my brow at no one in particular at Tyler's voice in my head. He sounded so mature and smart. I'm just use to Tyler sounding care free and jovial. Sometimes.

Before I made it to my door knob, a sickly sweet odor wafted my nose. It was too sweet and yet enticing. I felt my body sway to the left as the smell grew stronger. In the distant, I could hear faint voices, sounding eerily like chantings.

'A visione nos mittet. A nuntius. Erit somnus vos conprehendant.'

I gripped the wall closest to me before I could lose my balance. My vision was becoming a blur, until every color and details were all one blob of a mess.

I shook my head, trying my best to translate the chantings. The best I got out of it was 'visions', 'message', and 'sleep' before I was knocked out.

I opened my eyes to a dimly lit room. It was more like a chamber, though. Stone walls,lit candles, wooden table.

The was surprisingly warm. I tried to pick out anything with my ears and nose, but only the smell of burning and the cold stone reached me.

"Hello?" I hesitantly called out. I must of been called out by someone.

My body immediately went rigid with realization. The Faeries. This is their doing. I fisted my hands and crouched into a defense mode. I was alert and ready for anything.

But not for what was happening in front of me. The wall behind the table started shimmering and rippling. Then shapes started to form.

It was Trinity.

What the hell is she doing in there? Just then, her face grimaced into a look of pain. She started withering on my floor, clawing at her back. She opened her mouth to scream, a loud, terrible noise slicing the room, sending shivers up my spine. What the hell is happening?

I felt my breathing growing labored with each breath. I was watching my friend who I have just made truce with suffering.

"Trinny..." I tried calling out to her, but she didn't seem to hear me. I even tried to reach out to her, only for my finger to collide with the wall.

"What's happening?!" I was getting more and more hysterical each passing second, knowing I can't do anything to help.

"This is just a mere vision."

I whipped my head around, facing the person who had spoke. It was a lady, a beautiful one at that. She had long blonde hair and deep green eyes. Obvious features of a Light Fae Clan. Her eyes held no harshness. She was so familiar.

"Who are you?" I asked, my guards still up.

"My name is Lorrainne Isa Keltruna. I am of the Light Fae Clan. We met not too long ago."

"We did?" I scrunched up my brows, trying to remember the last time I met a Light Fae. Then it hit me. "You were that lady who told me not to conceive a baby with Liam."

"Correct."

"Are you here to tell me another warning?"

"Not exactly."

"What do you mean?"

"If you would please let me finish my sentences." I blushed, feeling guilty. "Have a seat."

I was about to tell her that there were no chairs. That is, until the chairs just came out of no where besides the table.

"Uh..." I trailed off, not knowing what to say about that.

"Sit," she said gently, as she took the chair on the opposite side of the other one.

I sighed, sitting down at the empty chair. I placed my hands on my lap, feeling nervous.

"Why am I here?" I asked.

"I brought you here because I thought you wanted to see what would happen soon."

"A vision?"

"Yes."

"Of the future." I clarified.

"It is."

I closed my eyes. Something horrible is going to happen to Trinity. I can't let that happen.

"What's happening to her?"

"A curse has been put on her. She is transforming into one of them."

What's this about a curse? One of them? "Can you tell me everything that is going on?"

"A Dark Fae. They placed a curse on her. But it's not permanent. For six months, she will be cursed to stay like that and be one of them."

"What?! No. But we are having a war with them soon! They can't... But..." I closed my eyes, taking on deep breaths. "When will the curse be placed on her?"

"The night of the New Moon."
