“I’m Iris I’ll see you tomorrow!” I shout, oh my god “eeeeee” I can’t help an excited inward squeal. The guy is gorgeous, smart funny everything you could ever want. “Johnny…” I say his name out loud to myself, it feels like a dream. It has to be. He is literally the definition of tall dark and handsome, not just handsome godly handsome. I can’t describe the feeling his touch gives me, when he fell on top of me it felt like the world stopped and I could see into his soul. His eyes were burning with desire. I could feel my body yearning for him. So desperate to touch him, to kiss him even. When he brushed my hair away from my face I felt myself melt inside. The walls protecting my heart and soul shook. His touch released a calm wave through me. It felt so natural to talk and just be near him, the moment I realised I had to go meet Rae a part of me felt a little lost and sad that I had to go, but knowing I was hopefully going to see him again tomorrow gave me an exhilarating feeling. Of course I’ve been in love before and dated men since being married, but no one not even my ex-husband sparked these kind of feelings within me. My head was worried for my heart and my heart was nervous at being broken again. But my body and soul that was an entirely different story. My body and soul had a will of its own. It wanted this man, yearned for him even, and I was afraid they would win. My head was saying “I don’t live here I shouldn’t be involved with someone I just met…” but I AM a grown ass woman, who says I can’t enjoy myself whilst I’m away. I always put everyone else first why not myself for a change….. I don’t have to become too attached… how hard can it be? With my bag on my back and my skates swinging from my shoulder I practically skipped the rest of the way to the museum.
The museum was easy to spot. It was huge, art deco in style with incredible detailing everywhere. I imagine at some point large parties and jazz bands could be heard from inside this place long ago, every inch of detailing the windows, the sills, the bannisters along the stairs up to doors, all oozed with sophistication. I couldn’t wait to get a look inside. As I walk in I see the reception desk is over to the left along the back wall. It is just as opulent. It has that vintage musty smell that all museums have. It actually smells similar to my grand-parents manor, the museum has more of a lively fuller feeling, and the manor is more calming. The ceiling where once chandeliers hung, now had banners and information hanging from them. The walls still had the original wall lights and wood panelling. There’s a group of school children and teachers over to the right, and a small queue of people waiting in the ticket aisle. I head straight over to the information desk in the middle.
“Hello how can I help you?” a tall platinum blonde woman sharply asks, she’s wearing a really tight dress that doesn’t leave much to the imagination you can see every curve even the shape of her nipples through the dress…I inwardly roll my eyes, well that’s slightly inappropriate dress for a museum I think to myself. I feel the air chill slightly like someone had opened the freezer door and the cool air rushed towards me. Strange. I shake the feeling away and smile “Hi I have an appointment here to see Rae Garcia please”
“And who shall I say is asking?” she asks looking me up and down like I was trash off the street.
“Iris Davis don’t worry she is expecting me.” I smile again but I can’t help dislike this woman. I’m not sure why at all, but that weird feeling maybe even just pure instincts tell me I don’t like or trust her, and I’m usually never wrong. The woman picks up the phone and makes a call, she gives me what is clearly a fake smile and puts the phone down.
“Mrs Garcia will be with you shortly”
“Thank you” I smile again and stand over to the side looking around. I can see her out the corner of my eyes looking me up and down smirking. Only adding to my first opinion of her.
I Hear heels quickly tapping towards me and see a smartly dressed woman in a designer suit, dark hair in a neat bun, and designer glasses framing her face. She looked like a model she was gorgeous, she ran with her arms out running towards me. I immediately know its Rae. We embrace each other like we have always been friends.
“I can’t believe you’re finally here! Come let’s go grab a drink and head over to my work area, how was your walk…err roller skates?”
“Haha yes you see correctly I bought my roller skates on holiday with me like the big grown up child that I am” we laugh as she walks me over to the museums restaurant, we both grab drinks a couple of snacks and sit at a table chatting away. I have a huge chocolate chip cookie and a strawberry frappe, Rae has an iced tea with a chocolate muffin, we laugh and talk about anything and everything. When we are done she leads me to the room where artefacts and exhibits are carefully cleaned and taken care of. This she calls her work room. The room is filled wall to wall with shelves and boxes. A beautiful window is opposite the door. Boxes are labelled with all kinds of treasures from all over the world. 4 large tables are pushed together in the middle of the room, and a desk to the side in front of a wall of shelves. The desk is piled high with paperwork. I remove my jacket and place it on top of my roller skates under the table, and take the photograph out of my bag. Rae goes over to what I assume is her desk and takes a loupe out of the drawer, which is a magnifying glass jewellers use. She turns on a desk light on the table I’m standing next too. I hand her the photograph and she takes a good long look at it.
“It does look identical to the amulet in the picture, I wish it was in colour” she smiles we both laugh knowing full well colour pictures at that time were none existent. “I think the only way to really tell is to get it and compare it to the picture, it’s a real shame we aren’t able to see its twin at the same time either but I guess we can’t have everything.” She walks back over to her desk pulling a key out her trouser pocket and unlocks the top drawer in the desk. Pulling out a box and reaching up to grab two pairs of white cotton gloves off the shelf above her desk. She places the box on the table and hands me a pair of gloves. Once Rae has her gloves on she opens the box and lifts out the amulet. I fiddle around trying to get my gloves on, when I finally have my gloves on I hand her the Loupe and place the photograph in front of her. We spend a good 15 minutes in silence while she looks over them both comparing and analysing between the photo and the amulet.
“It does look identical Iris, the size is definitely the same. The only thing I’m still unsure of is the stone itself in the centre.”
“May I take a look?” I ask, she nods and I hold out my gloved hand for her to place the amulet in. As soon as the amulet touches my glove, my hand slams down to the table and I scream at the top of my lungs in pain gasping for air.
“arghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh”
“Iris!!!!! What’s wrong?!”
I try to remove the amulet from my hand but my hand won’t go near it, the closest I can get to it is my wrist, I can’t help but scream and claw at my wrist. I drop to my knees. A strange burning sensation starts to fill my eyes and I’m frozen in place unable to move. My vision tints purple and I can feel warm tears streaming down my face. The amulet now feels like it’s trying to push through my hand wanting to break every bone in it. Then the sensation starts to burn, either it’s my imagination or something else but I see waves shimmering down my arm to the amulet. The same kind of wave you see on a hot day rippling above the tarmac. It feels like my very life and soul is being pulled out of my body. Rae is trying everything she can to take the amulet off my hand, but she’s having no luck. I start to see stars and my vision blurs, I try to scream for help but it comes out as a whisper. I hear a loud crash and everything goes black.
After me and Will finish our jog we head straight over to the museum. I have a few things to do while over there and Will takes this opportunity to spend a little time with his mate. I mind link Rae to let her know we are here and are in my office. She informs me she’s in a meeting with Ms Davis and could be awhile. Will is naturally bummed as he wants to see his mate so I send him away to grab a couple of coffees from Starbucks, so I don’t have to deal with his pining for my sister. Since being back at the museum Azell had been pacing in my head, his pacing became more frequent and none stop as the minutes passed, it was slowly driving me insane giving me a headache. He had no idea what was wrong but knew something somewhere wasn’t right. Will had been gone around 15 minutes when my sister mind linked me in absolute panic.“ALPHA!! Brother please!!! Come quickly!! I don’t know what to do!!! Some things gone wrong!” she opens her mind more
Suddenly my eyes snap open I gasp for air remembering the searing pain in my hand. Slowly a warm calm wave flows over me and I register someone’s hands on my cheeks. Wait I recognise that face… “J….Johnny? What are you doing here?” My voice came out in a whisper. “Rae is my sister and this is my museum.” He smiles at me I look over to Rae and I can immediately see the resemblance now. “Oooh…” I look back to Johnny who still has his hands on my face and I immediately start to blush at the awkwardness, he must realise he is still holding my cheeks and he blushes too and slowly lets go. I clear my throat. “So anyone care to tell me what the hell happened??” Johnny runs a hand through is hair and grabs a stool to sit down. As I watch him something deep inside me stirs and I can see his aura so clearly. It’s the most beautiful aura I have ever seen in my life. Pure liquid gold surrounded him towards the edge of the aura was even more beautiful. Think of the northern light
I take hold of the door handle in my good hand and lean into the door frame to block the doorway.“Hi…can I help you?” I asked“I need to speak with Johnny I have some papers for him to sign.” She looks straight at me and leans in taking a long deep sniff” weird…..“Well I’m afraid Johnny is indisposed at the moment so can I help with anything?”“No, you can just hand him these. Tell him I’ll see him later” and she whispers “whore” to me, it was barely audible but I definitely heard it. She then saunters down the hallway swinging her hips leaving me with the paperwork. In top of the paper work is a post it note with a graphic sexual intimate message about the two of them. Inwardly rolling my eyes. Johnny walks out the bathroom with his shorts no longer pitching a tent. I walk over to his desk and place the paperwork down.“Kady said there are some impo
When I awoke at 6 it felt like my head had only just hit the pillow. I still felt exhausted. My body ached all over and my hand was throbbing. I probably should rest some more, but I really wanted to spend more time with Johnny and Rae. I loosely tied up my hair and took a couple of pain killers, and grabbed a shower to wake myself up. I jump in and out barely taking 2 minutes. When I finished I dried myself smothered myself in body lotion and let my hair down. I pulled out the awesome vintage dress I bought yesterday, I paired it with black leggings, and my trendy side lacing black ankle boots. I did very light make up, consisting of eye liner and mascara a little pink shimmering blush. I get dressed and check myself in the mirror. God this dress made me feel amazing. It was covered in mainly gold sequins but had strips of other colours in stripes going down the length of the dress. It showed a tiny amount of cleavage, it came mid-thigh and has full length sleeves. The top of the s
I reluctantly agreed to drop Iris back at her hotel after seeing the doctor. Even Jackson had worries. I’ve known Jackson a long time he helps out the pack whenever needed. As soon as he has all the test results he will have us back in. In the mean time we both agreed Iris needs keeping an eye on. I have strong concerns over what that amulet did, and looking at Iris she definitely needed to rest. She was pale and tired looking. After our bathroom shenanigans I never want to be away from her again. No one has ever held my attention this long before. It was like my whole being was under her spell. I know it’s the mate bond. But even if the mate bond didn’t exist I know I would be naturally drawn to her anyway. I made sure she had walked through the doors before driving off and headed straight back to the museum. Will, Rae and I were going to have an in depth chat about the amulet and Iris. I also made a quick mental note to discuss with Kady her shitty behaviour. Whe
Iris’s face was a perfect vision. Filled with marvel and excitement. She was grinning from ear to ear.“Wait until you see inside this place, it is great” I take her hand and we head on in.The waitress at the door leads us to a booth where Rae and Will are sat waiting.“Wow Iris you look amazing!” Rae gives Iris a hug and Azell smirks *hottest woman in here I think you’ll find*‘Damn straight she is. Fun times ahead Azell that’s for sure’Once we are seated Rae immediately hounds on us about how, and why we were late. I briefly brush over what happened at the hotel. Explaining we want to temporarily forget it for tonight, just to relax and forget about our problems and worries, tomorrow will be a new day and we can sit and figure it all out together. For now we have fun. I order a giant pitcher of the house cocktail. Each night they have a different one. Always filled with slices of fruit and s
Sunlight streamed into the room bouncing off my face, I could feel its warmth blessing my skin. Johnny’s arm wrapped around my waist, comforting sparks rushing throughout my body. We were so exhausted last night we didn’t even both to dress again after showering. Last night was incredible it chased away all my fear and anxiety that was hanging over me. Today was a new day and I would hopefully get some answers about my heritage. I roll over kissing Johnny on his nose. He looked so peaceful and happy. He had the most beautiful face perfect sized nose, beautiful plump lips perfect teeth, and eyes to die for, and wow his body was so god like I couldn’t believe how lucky I truly am. I’m finally with someone who respects and adores me. I stroked his cheek gently and got out of bed. My mouth was dry and my stomach was rumbling like crazy. I grabbed Johnny’s shirt from the floor and put it on just doing 1 button up to give me a little coverage it reached mid-thigh and was a welcome blanket
After fully mating and marking Iris I couldn’t believe how amazing I felt. As I bit her I felt her raw power and soul. She felt so perfect just holding her in my arms I never wanted to let her go. Sex had never been good for me until I met Iris. I always felt guilty knowing I should be with my mate, so I could never fully relax or enjoy it. But with Iris is was explosive. Every nerve in my body set alight, tingles all over my body sending shivers down my spine. Even Azell lost control for a brief moment whilst we marked her. We knew we could never get tired of this feeling. Lucky for us it’s going to be forever. We spent the rest of the morning looking through the books Rae had dropped off. We found quite a bit of interesting information from one book in particular, so we decided to head over to the museum to catch up with my sister and my Beta Will. Iris wanted to stop off at this food deli she found on the way. She wouldn’t allow me to come in with her wanting it to be a s
