Chapter One: Tag
By: Magelet
Keller sobbed into her pillow. Life didn't seem worth living now. Galen was gone. He was dead for sure. Falling over
a cliff-who could survive that? After she could see nothing, sense nothing, and now, back home, she could feel nothing but
pain. Anything suggesting the soulmate link was severed. She couldn't stand it much longer. Ending her life now seemed like
a good option. She couldn't think straight, walk straight, or even see straight. Death seemed nice. She had taken Rashel's
wood and silver knife. It was a sharp knife, enough to end her pain. She placed it at the empty space that was once her heart,
and prepared to press it in.
*Flash*
*Keller and Galen stalked down a corridor in Theirry's mansion. They were both restless and needed something to do,
it was driving them crazy. Iliana didn't need them now; the Witch Child was being almost more heavily guarded then the rest
of the wild powers.
"I have an idea," Galen suggested. "We could have some fun, out away from the Night World." Keller's eyebrows lifted
suggesting interest, and he continued. "Theirry and Hannah are taking a trip to South America and may need some 'protection',
if you catch my drift. And we could go for a run, a real run, without worrying about our lives or taking the life of a
Nightworlder." He grinned at his soulmate. "Please, Boss?" he wheedled, using one of his pet names for her. The rest of her
team called her so with a respectful friend-affection, but he called her that as a nickname.
"Well, I don't know, you may have to persuade me." Keller drawled teasingly.
"Well, when we're not playing body-guard for Theirry and Hannah, we can go for a run in 'shifter form. Or, we could
check out the, uh, for example, bedrooms, in out luxurious flat." He kissed her cheek lightly and quickly. "Tag, you're it."
He quickly shifted and tore down the hall.
"Well my prince, I'll have to get you for that." She giggled, she'd loosened up a lot since she had taken Iliana's
place in joining the witches and shifters, with her and the 'shifter prince being 'together'. Which was good because Keller
was Galen's real soulmate, not the Witch Child.
Shifting into a panther form, she raced off after the leopard that was her fiancé. Searching her mind for their
soulmate connection, to find where he was or where he was heading.
He was going to her room! Big surprise! Where she had softened, and gotten nicer and more girly, he had been hanging
around Morgead, Ash and Delos, who had a bad impression on him, since all they wanted to do was make out and have sex with
their soulmates. She shook her large, black head, lithe muscles springing in the direction of her room, across the mansion.
She found Galen in her room, sprawled across her bed, riffling through a box. He was grinning.
"This is interesting, Keller." He teased as she walked in silently. He was holding the note her mother had left her
that he had re-done. He was looking at some pictures that must have been taken without him knowing it, since he didn't
remember any of them.
In human form, Keller blushed, it was the box of things that either looked like Galen or things that he'd done or
reminded her of him that she kept under her bad. She didn't know why, but whenever he might be away, and her not with him,
these items comforted her. She hated to admit that she was more attached and sentimental when it came to her soulmate than
most of the other couples, but it was true. Maybe it was because it was her job to get him and Iliana together. Keller
shrugged mentally and sat on her bed behind the shifter prince. Wrapping her arms around him, she placed her chin on his
shoulder and sighed.
"I love you, Galen." She whispered into his ear, lips brushing soft, golden hair.
"Hey, you didn't tag me back. Soulmate tag doesn't work if only one person is playing." He turned his head a tiny bit
and brushed some of Keller's long, dark hair out of her face.
Keller smiled, shifted her position, and kissed him. "There. You're it."
They ended up just kissing back and forth, but honestly, what are they supposed to do? Chase each other all day?
They were already in a bedroom...
