Mine – The Alpha’s Possession By Kylie CHAPTER 35
TAYLOR POV
“Jackson. How the hell did you get through?” I asked.
“I don’t know. I just wanted to hear your voice on your voicemail. I didn’t expect you to answer.” He says getting a little excited.
“Why are you calling me?” I asked.
“Why did you leave?” He asked, his voice Mth concern. laced
“Because I had to. You know that I had to. “I say.
“Why?” He wed.
“Because you won’t accept me. I needed to get out of there. You know this. Jackson, seeing you every day was killing me slowly every day.” I say.
“I know. I know that now. But I need you to come home.” He says.
“I can’t do that. I have to stay here.” I say. And the static on the phone started getting a lot worse.
“You don’t need to stay there.” He says.
“Vincent created this realm wanting me to come here with him if it was proven that I was his daughter. But Mom lied and said that I wasn’t.” I explained.
“What are you talking about? Vincent didn’t create the realm.” He says.
“What? What do you mean?” I asked.
“Other people did…” He says as the static got really bad. I could barely hear him now. He was trying to tell me something. It sounded important. He was desperately trying to tell me something before the phone cut out.
“What the hell did he mean? Vincent said that he created this realm.” I say to myself as I put the phone back in my cupboard. At first, I was thinking it was a trick to get me back to his world. To get me to go back to him, but the desperation in Jackson’s voice tells me otherwise. I didn’t believe that he would sound that desperate if it wasn’t true. He’s not that good of an actor. He was really desperate. I think he actually believes that I am in danger.
The following morning I got up before the sun rose and I went to my cupboard and I tried to find something that was most suitable for what to do. wanted
Everything I owned in here were dresses and that really sucked. But I finally came across a dress with a black bodice and a gold thigh length skirt that was in strips and not just one full skirt. I knew that was the closest that I was going to get to what I wanted. Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!
So, I got dressed into that and I looked at myself in the mirror. I knew that this was going to be hard in this dress and boots but I had no other choice. It was the only thing that I could find.
So, I walked out of my room and down the three flights of stairs until I was outside the front door. I walked to the top of the 2500 stairs that I walked up with Layla to get to the castle and I started jogging down them and then up them and then down them and up them again.
I did four laps of the stairs before I broke off into the woods around the castle, not the Mystic woods past the village and I started jogging through the woods leaving marks on the trees so I could find my way out again.
I needed to know where I was going because I hadn’t been in these woods before.
I had been running for about two hours before I got back to the castle and Vincent was at the front door with some of his soldiers.
“What’s going on?” I asked out of breath as I approached them.
“We were just about to send a search party out for you.” Vincent says.
“Why? I’m fine.” I say.
“What do you think you’re doing?” He asked.
“I told you. I exercise. I like to exercise. But I would like better clothes for it.” I say.
“Yeah. That dress isn’t really for exercising.” He says.
“Alright. What is it for then? Because I can’t see myself wearing this for anything else.” I say.
“It’s a warriors costume.” He says.
“So, I guess it’s not a bad choice for jogging through the woods.” I say.
“I’ll send someone to collect your exercise clothes since you are so determined to do that.” He says.
“Thank you. I appreciate that.” I say going inside without saying anything else to anyone.
I went up to my room to have a shower and I got dressed into a lilac chiffon flowing dress with a tight bodice tied up at the back that Ruth had to do up for me. It was practically impossible to breathe.
I then headed to the dining room for breakfast. Vincent was already sitting at the table and I sat next to him and a servant bought me a coffee.
“I told you the rule around here Taylor. If you leave the palace then you need to leave a note. Just to let me know where you are.” Vincent says.
“Oh crap. I completely forgot about that. I’m sorry. I really didn’t mean to worry you.” I say.
“I know. It was a slip up.” He says.
“It was. It won’t happen again. I am sorry. “I say. And he put his hand on mine.
“That’s alright. Listen, I’m going to be busy all day with Eric today so you won’t see much of me. I have a Kingdom to look over.” He says.
“Yeah. I understand that.” I say.
“I understand Stefan will be here today. Maybe you two can do something together.” He says.
“Sounds like a good plan.” I say.
After Vincent and Eric left I was wondering around the castle just looking around and I guess, snooping around a little bit. But then I saw Stefan up the hall.
“So, I hear I am supposed to keep you entertained today.” Stefan says.
“That’s what I hear too. And I had a great idea on what we could do.” I say.
“And what’s that?” He asked curiously.
“Faerie training.” I smirked at him.
“You want to start that straight away?” He asked.
“Absolutely. Now, come on. Let’s get started.” I say grabbing him by the arm and I started dragging him outside.
We found a quiet area on the grass outside the castle, and we chased the gardeners away while we were out there and Stefan kept looking around to make sure that no one was watching.
“I’m not sure if your father is going to like me doing this.” Stefan says.
“I don’t care. He hasn’t even mentioned about my fae powers. I want to be able to use them. Now, how do we start?” I asked.
“Alright. It takes a lot of concentration. Basically, meditation at this point. You need to clear your head of all other thoughts.” He says.
I knew that was going to be really hard because I was never able to calm my mine. I was always thinking of one thing or another. It drove me crazy. And being here was really not doing anything for me. I heard Eric the other night which was bugging me, and then the phone call from Jackson. He told me that Vincent didn’t create this realm. But we got cut off before he could really tell me anything.
I had to sit there and pretend like I knew absolutely none of that and clear my mind completely. So I concentrated on the wind blowing, the waves crashing at the bottom of the cliff, the trees blowing in the wind. I had to clear my mind but I wasn’t sure what was meant to happen after that. What was I meant to do after that? What power was meant to come forward? I mean, Stefan wasn’t really saying anything. He was just meditating as well. Does that mean that he doesn’t want me to know what I can do either. Was he in on the whole conspiracy.
I know that he was arguing with his father about getting me involved in his father’s plan. But he might still be trying to get me involved because his father told him to. It was really confusing. I didn’t know what the hell to think. And then I started again. And I knew that this wasn’t working.
We were sitting out there for a couple of hours before we both got bored with it and I was the one that gave up. So we walked around the gardens and the grounds of the castle for a while. But I could feel Ava scratching at my head. I knew that she wanted out. She wanted to get out and go for a run.
“I think I might head into the woods for a while.” I tell Stefan.
“What for?” He asked ed.
“Because Ava is itching to get out. She really wants to go for a run.” I explained.
“Who’s Ava?” He asked.
“Oh. That’s my wolf.” I chuckled.
Forgetting that they aren’t used to having werewolves around here.
“Oh. Is it alright if I don’t tag along?” He asked.
“Yeah. That’s fine. I’ll see you when I get back.” I say. So I headed into the woods and I made sure that no one could see
I stripped off all my clothes and placed them neatly at the base of a tree and shifted into my black and white wolf and Ava stretched out and loved being free once again. She hadn’t been out in a while and I knew that it made her anxious being locked up.
‘It’s about time.’ I says.
‘Sorry. Been a little busy.’ I say.
‘I know. Let’s do this.’ She says crouching down. And she got right down to the ground before she took off into the woods.
We ran all around the woods surrounding the castle and then down to the ground but we stayed on the outside of the village. Outside of the wall. And I headed straight for the Mystic Forest. It was beautiful in there and I didn’t even know where I was going. I just knew that I was running it felt amazing.
I heard something rustling in the trees above me and a whole lot of leaves started falling down around me so I stopped to look up but I couldn’t see anything. So, I started running again but I heard the noise again and this time there was a loud roar to go with it.
Ava got into defensive mode and bared her teeth and got close to the ground while being on guard and listening for things coming at all directions. But she looked up and she was looking at nothing by the trees when a dragon suddenly appeared out of it’s camouflage.
