《The Alpha and I (Book 1)》33. Cici
Advertisement
When I came to again I felt so weak and I was in so much pain but the fog over my mind was gone.
'Ash?' I called out to him in my mind.
'Cici? Thank god, are you ok?'.
'I am for now but my father told me he will be back to kill me soon, I just need to tell you how sorry I am for ripping our lives apart and leaving without a proper goodbye'.
'My Luna you don't need to be sorry I will be there to protect you soon. I love you and I'm not going to let him take you from me!'
'Ash I love you too, but I can feel it in my soul, I'm going to die tonight, there is no way for you to get here in time. I just need you to forgive me for leaving.' I begged he would, I couldn't die knowing he hated me for my choices.
'I will do no such thing.... until I hold you in my arms back in our pack I refuse to, do you understand me? I will do no such thing so you have to hold on for me to gain my forgiveness!!' He growls at me through the link. I love him for trying, I really do, but even after I was able to contact him earlier it would take time to find a witch and time for him to get here. It's a two day run if you go flat out, and I would be dead by tonight. 'Cici?'
'I love you for your optimism my Alpha but it'll take too long for you to get here, I am going to die tonight.'
'Stop saying that dammit, don't you dare quit on me unless you don't love me anymore!!'

'Of course I love you, I'm just being honest and trying to get our goodbye rather then leaving this world without it. It takes two days to get here from our home. Let's be honest I'm not going to survive but you have to, you have to live on for me!'
'Cici, stop please. I already came to find you when we found your old pack slaughtered. We are still on your fathers pack lands, I can get you we are just waiting on our coven allies to arrive with their strongest witches to make sure when we attack we can get in fast.'
'You're here? Maybe that's why I can talk to you now, it's not as much of a distance for my power to cover!'
'I am here my Luna, hang on for me I'll be with you soon!'
"What the fuck are you doing you bitch?!" My father screamed, he rushed to get someone to unlock my cell door. He must have noticed my glossed over eyes while I was linking Ash.
'My father knows I've made contact, I'm sorry he's going to drug me again so this is goodbye... for now. I love you!'
'I love you too!'
"You filthy mutt, you distracted me and I never drugged you! It's a shame that any call for help you've made will be in vain... there is no way your mate can make it here in time to save you!" He spat in my face as he injected my neck. "I hope you said goodbye Cici" he smirked as the darkness too me again.

**for Quravin** It's the summer of 2010, and Evan Barker's older brother Jason has just committed suicide. His devastated parents are reeling from the Recession, his friends are shiftless drunks, and his younger sister has been committed after discovering Jason's body. In an attempt to assuage the trauma his family has experienced and break away from his own shitty existence, Evan decides to grab his portion of the modern American Dream by trying out for that year's American Idol auditions in Nashville. Never mind that Evan's a 21-year-old virgin with a self-image as poor as his social skills. Never mind that he's never even attempted to sing before. In 21st century America, anything is possible, or so Evan's been told by a cultural upbringing of "Follow your dreams" and "Everyone is special" and "True love awaits". Speaking of true love, Evan asks Lily Trent to accompany him on the journey. Lily is a childhood acquaintance with whom he's recently reconnected and developed a crush on. Lately Lily's been working as a stripper, a cynical and jaded young woman who may or may not have her own motivations for joining Evan on the trip. Evan hopes the time alone will spark reciprocal affections in Lily, and an improbable come-from-nowhere triumph on national TV will not only free his family from their blue collar burdens, but win him the respect and love he craves-- not just from others, but from himself. Together, Evan and Lily discover why learning how to fail may be their generation's greatest lesson. Cover art by Gerry Siorek
