His Little Fae

Lying by Omission

You'll be the sun, I'll be your moon.

Just let your light come shining through;

And when night comes, just like the moon,

I'll shine that pale light, right back to you.

Cruella was suspicious of me. I knew it for a fact.

Had she somehow caught Castiel and Gabriel's scents while they were speaking with me?

No. She didn't have to catch their scents to be suspicious.

The simple fact that Bella had been found in the opposite direction of where we'd found her was more than enough proof.

Damn Castiel.

Your body may have grown but your brains didn't.

But still...

My heart beat with happiness at the mere fact that he was alive and well, that his body coursed with life and warmth and everything that made someone human. I couldn't help the blinding joy that I felt. It's not everyday you run into a dear friend you'd thought to be gone.

And yet, the joy was quickly snuffed out as I recalled to whom him and Gabriel had bowed to. As I recalled their burning plans for revenge, their desperation to spill blood.

"Alexandria?"

How could they be so foolish? So careless? One would think Gabriel would oppose the idea since he was older, smarter, wiser, but no, he was just as idiotic and reckless as the others.

It just didn't make sense.

"Love, are you alright?"

No good would come from this. If they harmed even a hair on a single wolfs head then Livius would just crush their barely reborn empire all over again. He may not be his father, he may not be a cruel , unfeeling killer, but he was his own evil.

If his pack was threatened, then he wouldn't hesitate.

I should've attempted to find out their game plan, damn it. I had to know what they were going to do, and what they'd already done.

Because there were a lot of incidents recently that Livius' council had been blaming on the Vampires that I'm certain they had played a role in. Or at least Gabriel did.

"Alexandria?"

I jumped, my thoughts completely disappearing as I finally refocused on the man in front of me, his words finally reaching my ears and registering within my mind.

My head throbbed with another headache as I locked eyes with my mate. Those sapphire eyes were brimming with curiosity, and I feared he'd somehow read my thoughts.

My mind froze for a brief moment as I mulled over another option.

Should I ... tell him?

Should I make him aware of the evils lurking in his forest? Of the beings he was unaware of?

I contemplated the thought for awhile before discarding it into an empty corner of my mind which I rarely visited.

He'd find out eventually on his own. If I were to tell him, he'd probably question me, then fuss over my well being, then rage about how risky it was, and finally forbid me from ever leaving the castle again without an escort.

Besides, it's not like they were going to do anything.

They'd only come here to get me. And I had said no. They should be on their way.
