Anastasia finds out she's a witch not just any witch but the oldest witch ever, oh and she's the queen, with a vampire as a mate, a lycan as a best friend, and a ghost that loves to help her, and enemies everywhere, Anastasia must save her world, th...
I looked around and realised we were in a house, the colour theme was red and black, there were coffins around the place, there was a table with a chalice, a cross, a photograph of a very pale man, and three black candles, I looked at Thomas
"Why are we not at the border?" I whispered worried we were trespassing
"There is no border, my queen, these people allow anyone passage" he shrugged, I calmed a little until...
"Oh hello, I didn't know we had visitors" we turned to see a woman with blond hair and brown eyes, she was wearing jeans and a black tight t shirt
"we've just come from the black wolf coven" Thomas started, I hit him lightly as if to say don't tell her that, I don't want to be kidnapped as well
"Oh? more of you? That's cool"
"Look, who's in charge? We would like to speak to them" I told her, to which she nodded, and told us to follow her. we followed her up some stairs on the wall there was a painting of a full moon, thats it just a dark background with a full moon, no stars no trees, I stopped to look at it, and the woman chuckled
"This way" she beckoned, we came to a door, a black door, she knocked on it
"Enter" came the sound from inside, the woman opened the door, the room was dark, red curtains covered the windows, letting little light in, the floor was black and carpeted there was a black leather sofa with a man sitting on it, he wore blue jeans with a black shirt that wasn't buttoned showing off his six pack abs, he held a glass of blood in one hand, and his other arm was across the back of the sofa

(A/N picture of Arimas above, just imagine the glass in his hand holds blood, and not whatever that is, sorry couldn't find one with blood)
"These people wanted to see you Arimas" the woman announced as she walked behind him and kissed his neck, she smiled as she looked at us, she stayed leaning near Arimas whilst he played with her hair
"I'm Thomas Birch, of the Unitaur coven, and ...."
"Wait didn't you say you were from black wolf?" the woman insisted standing up straight now, even Arimas sat up straight.
"No, he said we had just come from there, we were only visiting" I corrected "I'm Anastasia, queen of the seven kingdoms" Arimas stood up so fast I thought he might get whiplash, he put his drink down on the table near the sofa and started buttoning his shirt, I wanted to laugh at the sight
"I'm so sorry your majesty please forgive Karen and I, we didn't know" Arimas bowed, as did Karen
"It's ok" I assured with a little laugh,
"Your show was quite amusing" both of them visibly relaxed. Arimas signalled a nod to Karen, and Karen left the room, Arimas went to the window and opened the curtains, I raised an eyebrow at this action, as if to ask why?, the vampire shrugged
"I always draw the curtains when people from black wolf come over, it annoys them" he scratched his head sheepishly he insisted we sit on the sofa he had been occupying, of course it was a two seater so I sat down on one side and Thomas and Damon argued as to who should sit Thomas insisted Damon sit next to me, and Damon insisted Thomas should sit, but as the argument went on Karen bought in a chair, a wooden chair, she carried it next to the sofa, and Thomas sat down on it, so Damon sat next to me after rolling his eyes at Thomas, I held Damons hand on my lap, I missed his touch, for some reason
"Would you like something to eat or drink?" Arimas offered
"A bourbon please" both Damon and I said in unison, we looked at each other and smiled, Thomas had said he wanted nothing, Karen left the room
"So, why are you here?" Arimas asked as he leaned on the windowsill having nowhere else to sit
"Lucas told us you are holding a wolf from his coven hostage, if you don't send him home the black wolves will declare war, and I, as the queen, don't want a war on my hands, you understand, don't you?" I asked standing up and walking towards him as I spoke, I was now right infront of him, Arimas gulped
"We are not holding Jackson hostage, he came here on his own accord, he can leave whenever he likes" I raised an eyebrow at this, I was going to ask him to explain, maybe even compell him, but I heard the door open, I turned to see Karen, she was holding a round brass tray with two glasses, filled with bourbon and a bowl of mixed nuts, I moved away from Arimas as Karen looked at us worriedly
"Is everything ok?" She asked as she set down the tray on a nearby table.
"The queen is here to inquire about Jackson, she thinks we're holding him hostage" Arimas declared, Karen let out a few profanities and walked out of the room, Damon came to stand near me with a glass of bourbon in each hand, he handed me one, I took it thankfully and took a sip
"So it's true then? You guys really are mates?" Arimas asked, to which I answered yes he thought it was cool that a vampire was mated
Karen walked in when we were talking about the mortal world, it had been years since Arimas had visited and he mentioned he would like to go. A boy, no older than 18, was with Karen
"Your majesty, meet Jackson, Jackson this is queen Anastasia" Karen announced, Jackson gasped, as he bowed, I nodded in acknowledgment, I walked over to him and looked him in the eye when he stood up
"You will tell me the truth" I compelled him
"I will tell you the truth" he told me in a monotone voice
"What is your name?" I asked first knowing this might not be Jackson
"Jackson" he answered
"Are you being held hostage Jackson?"
"No my queen"
"Why did you leave the black wolf coven?"
"My mate is here, I wanted to be closer to her, Lucas told me to reject her, my queen, or she could stay with the black wolves if she promised to break all ties with the midnight coven, the coven she grew up in, the coven that's her family, I couldn't allow that so I left, I'm free here, my queen, there is only one rule here 'treat others how you want to be treated' Jackson shook his head "Lucas taught us that vampires were bad, evil, they should all be killed, but I found non of it to be true, everyone lives here in harmony, no enemity, I can shift when I want...." I stopped Jackson from talking
"Shift when you want? What do you mean by that?" I asked him Jackson scoffed
"Each wolf in the black wolf coven only gets five minutes of shifting time each day, there's a schedule, it's not enough, my wolf needs to run, be free, he loves it here, I love it here, and I'm not going back, your majesty, you will have to kill me before I go back willingly" Jackson cried
"There will be no killing" I assured him "if you want to stay here, you are free to do so" Jackson smiled and sniffed, I smiled back and told him he may leave, he left with a grateful smile, and I turned to Thomas "What now?" I shrugged, I had told Lucas we would bring Jackson back, but he wanted to stay here, I didn't blame him, I'd want to stay here if I were him,
"We will have to go back and tell the alpha that Jackson is happy here" Thomas told me what I already knew.
After goodbyes and inviting the midnight coven to come visit us, we left and blinked to the black wolf coven once again.
