*~*~*~*~*
(Morgan's POV)
My butt was starting to hurt. We-meaning Kithic-were sitting around, on the cold hard floor, for their weekly gathering. It's also the first time I've seen Hunter after that disastrous night at the beach. I was still shocked and a little bruised. Every night since that happened, I've been getting nightmares. It just repeats itself over and over again in my head. I'd wake up in cold sweat and chills after each nightmare.
"Lets get started," Sky said. She was leading the circle tonight because Hunter was still pretty beaten up. After casting the circle and calling the Guardians - for extra protection-Sky instructed everyone to sit down. " I think we should start things slow. For tonight, I want you all to meditate. Let the healing light into you. Sort your thoughts and let the Goddess help you. We've all been through a lot this past few weeks so let this time help you to get things together. Lets begin."
I looked around as everyone started to close their eyes. My gaze stopped at Hunter. He was looking intensely at me, right into my eyes. He smiled and then looked away. Slowly I closed my eyes, clearing my head of everything. I started to image the white light filling my body. "Help me Goddess, let me see the way, my path. Help me make the right choices." I asked.
*********************************************************
Everything started out dark at first. Then a figure started to materialize. The figure moved closer and I realized that it was a woman wearing a long black dress. Her face was ethereal. One moment it looked like a little girl, the next a motherly woman, and then it changed into a crone. Each face looked alike, but it was as if you are seeing someone grow older right before your eyes.
"I am Hecate, " her voice was unyielding and cold. It was odd how it sounded like there were three different voices, all blended together. Just like her face, her voice sounded like a child, a mother, and a crone. "I have come to warn you, my cherished daughter."
"Warn me? Does it have to do with my father?" I said, cringing from referring to Ciaran as my father. As far as I'm concern, Ciaran is not my father. It takes more than giving life to someone to be a father.
"Yes, Morgan. I am the Goddess of Prophecies and to you I share my vision." She smiled and then vanished. Seconds later, a bright golden light appeared. As it got closer and closer it started to take shape.
"Hunter?" I asked, my voice shaking. As the figure moved closer, I realized that it was Hunter. He was standing right in front of me, bathe in white light. He was magical and gorgeous.
"He is the Deceiver-" Hecate whispered. Before I could finish the vision and ask questions, I felt like I was being pulled away from there and back into reality.
*********************************************************
Then I was back in the room with the rest of Kithic. Shocked, I jumped up and backed away from the circle. Everyone was looking at me, a startled look in their face. I can't breathe! I gasped for air but nothing seems to be getting in.
"Morgan?! Are you alright?!" Hunter was standing by my side.
"I'm fine. I just need some fresh air." I wanted to get out of there and think. Did Hecate just call Hunter the Deceiver? What did she mean? Was he going to deceive me? I don't know understand! I'm so confused!
I rushed out of the house as quick as I can. I couldn't stand to be stared at like a caged animal. Everyone in there thinks I'm a major freak. But, what else is new? They always think I'm a freak; at least deep down they do. Even I do, sometimes.
"Morgan? Are you okay?" Hunter was walking towards me. It was dark but I could see that his arm was bandaged up. " I was worried. Did you have a vision? Do you want to talk about it?" he asked, kindheartedly.
"It's nothing Hunter. I just need some times to think. It just surprised me is all." I lied. I looked up at Hunter. I don't believe it. Hecate was wrong. Hunter would never deceive me.
" I never got to thank you for saving my life Hunter." I said, trying to change the subject and to get my mind of that vision.
"I'm just glad you're not hurt. Morgan, you know I'd die for you." He said, staring right into my eyes-into my whole being. " Morgan, I want us to be together." He stated. He walked towards me, never taking his strong gaze away from my eyes.
"We can't Hunter. You know that." I said, hypnotized. I looked into his eyes, and I saw the whole universe. "I have a boyfriend, and Azriel means a lot to me." That's good Morgan, say his name. Don't forget you have Azriel, I reminded myself. "And plus, you have Amelia." Good move, bring in the other girl.
"Amelia and I broke up. She left Thursday." He said, moving closer-close enough that I can smell the "new laundry" smell of his shirt. He was so close. His lips were so close. It's been so long since--
"I'm sorry to hear that Hunter, but you know we can only be friends." I looked down and stared at my shoes. I couldn't bear to look at Hunter. It hurts too much.
Hunter put his finger under my chin and lifted it up so that I would look at him. "Friends huh? I fight for the things that I want and are passionate about, and believe me Morgan, I will fight for you this time."
My heart jumped into my throat. I pushed myself up and cupped Hunters face with my hands. My lips touched his soft, warm lips. All my senses were on alert as I kissed Hunter. He leaned his face closer and wrapped his strong arms around me. I felt the strength of his emotion envelope all of me.
(Hunter's POV)
Morgan jumped up, a frightened look on her face. She backed away from the group and huddled in a corner. I jumped up and rushed to her side-big mistake. I felt ripping pain from my side. "Morgan?! Are you alright?!" I asked, ignoring the searing pain.
"I'm fine. I just need some fresh air." Was all she said and then rushed out.
"What happened?" Bree asked, worried. "I should go out and see if she's okay." Robbie looked up at her and nodded.
"No, I'll go" I said, sternly. I walked out into the clear dark night. I saw Morgan pacing in the lawn. "Morgan? Are you okay?" I said as I walked towards her. " I was worried. Did you have a vision? Do you want to talk about it?" I asked.
"It's nothing Hunter. I just need some times to think. It just surprised me is all." I looked at her and I can tell she was lying. If she doesn't want to talk about it, then I wont push her. "I never got to thank you for saving my life Hunter."
"I'm just glad you're not hurt. Morgan, you know I'd die for you." I meant it too. I walked closer to her. Just being closer to her made my heart slam against my already broken rib cage " Morgan, I want us to be together." There, I said it. I've wanted to say it.
"We can't Hunter. You know that." She looked straight into my eyes. "I have a boyfriend, and Azriel means a lot to me." Great! She had to bring in the boyfriend. He doesn't deserve her. She's meant to be with me. "And plus, you have Amelia" The thoughts of Amelia made my stomach hollow. I guess I still feel guilty. I didn't love her enough-not as much as she loved me.
"Amelia and I broke up. She left Thursday." I took a couple of steps closer- so close I can smell her shampoo.
"I'm sorry to hear that Hunter, but you know we can only be friends." She whispered. She looked down and stared at her shoes.
I struggled to find my tongue and to tell her that I love her, but I couldn't.not after she told me we could only be friend. Gently, I lifted her chin up so she would look at me. Morgan looked up slowly, her lashes fluttered open. I took a deep breath and was amazed-- she looked so beautiful, so innocent. I wanted to kiss her, but instead I said "Friends huh? I fight for the things that I want and are passionate about, and believe me Morgan, I will fight for you this time."
She looked into my eyes, pushed her self up to her toes, cupped my face with her hands, and kissed me. Morgan is kissing me! I hope Morgan doesn't feel my heart slamming against my rib cage. My heart turned in my chest-- touching her made my heart ache even more. I pulled her closer enjoying our closeness. My skin was tingling. Morgan was back into his arms-just like it was meant to be.
Then Morgan pulled away. "I'm sorry Hunter. This was a mistake - -"
(Morgan's POV)
As I pulled away, I could still feel Hunters warm lips against mine. "I'm sorry Hunter. This was a mistake." I ran down to my car and drove away, not ever turning back. One thing was echoing in my head - - -
Deceiver - - - Deceiver - - - Deceiver - - -
