Author's Note: Hello again my lovely readers. I would like to once again thank everyone again for your very sweet, not to mention your extremely kind comments on my first fanfic story of Paige/Emily so far. I am so glad you guys are really enjoying my story as much as you guys are. It really shows through your extremely flattering comments that you been writing to me.
I am also going to do a quick response to Cici's request on the review doohickey thingy for this story, asking if I could show more of Paige's werewolf abilities. No worries Cici, I was definitely planning on doing just that. Actually I was planning on not only having Paige show more of her abilities as a werewolf, but I was planning on having Emily also show more of her abilities as a vampire as well. I was going to have some more of Paige's abilities start to show a bit more along with an explanation as to why I haven't written them in yet, with the exception to her transforming powers, until now in this chapter. I am going to at least introduce Paige's accurate healing abilities in this chapter and then I am most likely will introduce the rest in most likely the next chapter that I will write or the one after that if I couldn't work it in to the next one.
I had also posted another fan fiction on my profile that I wrote. It's a completed one-shot of the Sailor Moon anime that revolving mostly around Rei/Sailor Mars and Makoto/Sailor Jupiter who are forced by Queen Beryl's four generals to assassinate the High Queen Serenity of the Moon Kingdom or else Queen Beryl's men will kill both her hostages Minako/Sailor Venus and Ami/Sailor Mercury. This story is something that I had written for a Korean History class, that I took in the spring semester of 2012 at the university that I attend. It was originally written as a historical fiction of the assassination of Empress Myeongseong, who is also, was well known as Queen Min, but I had re-written my originally paper in to a really cool and long Sailor Moon fan fiction for you guys. So for those of you who are interested and would like to read it go to my profile and click on the title 'The Queen and the Assassins' to read.
Once again thank you to all of you fantastic readers not to mention fellow fan fiction writers that are beyond amazing to take the time to read my stories and to post your opinions and thoughts on it. Now onwards to the next chapter my lovelies I hope you enjoy this chapter as much as you did with my last 3 chapters. I will be look forward to be hearing your thoughts on it.
Chapter 4:
Antidote, clothes, and the start of feelings!
Paige's P.O.V.:
It has been hours since both Paige and Emily had fallen asleep in the Emily's large queen sized bed. Paige was the first of the two girls to awaking from sleep. It had taken her a few moments to wake up, but when she was a little more awake Paige saw that the positions that both her and Emily had changed during the day's sleep. Somehow Paige went from resting her head her head on Emily's chest and being snuggled in to her to the positions being reversed. Paige was now lying on her back with her arms now loosely hanging around Emily's lower back. While Emily had her face nuzzled deeply in her neck, with one arm wrapped tightly around her waist, and Emily's free hand resting on Paige's chest.
Paige nearly stopped breathing when she realized the brand new position they were sleeping in. Everything about the new position they were lying in from the way that some of Emily's hair had landed just under Paige's chin so she had no choice but to breath in Emily's intoxicating scent, to feeling were Emily's warm, slow, but rhythmic breathing landed on the crock of her neck, and lastly to feeling where Emily's free hand had landed on one of her breasts; It was amazing but it completely draining Paige of self-control. She would have gotten up but Paige felt that both of their legs were tangled together under the covers and Emily still had her arm wrapped around her waist. Plus with the stiches that were still in place Paige couldn't move too much on her own without ripping them up, leaving her with absolutely no way of escaping this very strange predicament that she had woken up in.
So which without any other alternate choose that wouldn't disrupted the Princess' sleep, Paige just laid there waiting for Emily to awaken from her slumber. And as Paige just laid there she just thought about the events of the previous day and of Emily's rescue of her. It was so unbelievable that it was just like something out of the pages of some kind of amazing fairy tale. You know the ones where the Prince Charming of the story breaks through to where the princess is, saves her from the evil villain, and carries her out of there.
Not that Paige ever dared to think of herself as of those princesses from fairy tales such as Cinderella, hell she was far from it and she knew it. Paige knew that she was a slave and there wasn't anything she could do about it. Plus she knew that Emily could never fall for someone like her, a werewolf slave, Emily of all people was a freaking vampire princess for crying out load. And even if Emily could fall for someone like Paige, they could never in a million years be together. It was because Emily was the one and only heir of the highest royal vampire blood lines and the law of the Rosewood Kingdom stated that those that are heirs of the royal highest royal vampire blood lines could only marry someone of nobility or high rank, which automatically booted Paige out right off the bat. Suddenly Emily started to stir from her sleep which snapped Paige out of her deep train of thought.
'Oh crap she is waking up! What if she thinks I am some kind of freaky creep, when she see me wake and holding her like this!' Paige started to think franticly and started to blush furiously. 'I know I will pretend that I am still a sleep! Great that will work!'
She slammed her eyes shut as Emily just started to open. Nothing in the world could have prepared Paige for what was going to happened next. Paige's ears filled with Emily giggling the kind of giggle that would make an ice beige melt and the sudden feeling of Emily's lips against her flushed cheek making it even redder.
"I know you're awake! I can hear your heart beating even faster than before." Emily giggled. Paige heavily sighed and slowly opened to see Emily looking up at her from where she had been resting the majority of the sleep with a very kind smile on her face. The blush on Paige's brighten a little more making Emily giggle a tiny bit. "I knew it. So how did you sleep, Paige? How are the stitches feeling?"
"Umm… I slept ok, princess, and the stitches feel ok." Paige mumbled shyly. "Ummm, also I never really said thank you for saving me yesterday or for taking care of me when I was having that nightmare. So….. Thank you!"
"You're welcome, Paige. I am just glad that I came in when I did and was able to save you in time." Emily smiled at her. "Just don't call me princess when we are alone or with Spencer, Aria, or Hanna. I have been meaning to ask you do you have a pack or a family that you could return to when you're all healed."
Paige shook her head no. "No I don't have anything to return to. My pack, my family, my home were all destroyed by Allison. I was the only thing left alive that's when she took me and made me her personal torture toy."
"I am so sorry Paige." Emily said. "Well if it makes any difference you can stay here, live in the palace, and start a new life. That is if you want."
"Are you sure that is ok?" Paige asked, her voice going really high.
"Yes, of course I am sure." Emily smiled at the other girl. "Anyway let's get you feed so I can get you to Spencer, so she can check up on how you're healing and see if she found the reason why you're healing so slowly. Then finally to Hanna so she can start to work on your new clothes."
Paige nodded.
Emily's P.O.V.:
After they had eaten Emily had to help Paige down to where the chambers that Spencer used as her lab as well as her medical room where she treated her patients. Besides the fact that Spencer was the youngest head of the medical staff for the palace in centuries, she was also the smartest not to mention the most powerful witch that was in existence. Emily know that Spencer was not only talented and gifted in using black magic, she was also talented and gifted in using white magic, so she know that Paige was in good hands. After Spencer looked Paige's body to see how the wounds were doing and how the stitches where holding up. She scribbled down some notes on her clip bored then looked up at them as she started to speak to both of them.
"I had my medical run some tests on the residue gunk that we had found in some of your wounds, Paige. And it seems like Allison had coated the whip that she used on you was some kind of poison that had traces of monkshood on it to prevent your wolf powers to accurate your body's healing abilities." Spencer stated.
"Monkshood? What's that?" Paige asked.
"Monkshood is a type of flowered plant that is extremely toxic to animals, especially to werewolves. It is known by many other names; such as women's bane, leopard's bane, devil's helmet, blue rocket, aconite, and last but not least wolf's bane." Spencer explained. "To werewolves such as yourself, Paige, who like vampires and fairies are basically immortal. Although monkshood is the only thing that is beyond poison to werewolves, next to sliver, and can kill you if too much get in to your bio systems. Other uses of monkshood that can be used on werewolves as long as too not too much is used can prevent you from using your accurate healing abilities, enhanced sight, strength, speed, and hearing. Not to mention it can also prevent you from shape shifting."
"Wow! Really?" Emily asked in awe.
"Yes, but it looks like Alison didn't use enough wolf's bane to lace the whip she used to hurt Paige and not to kill her. It looks like she used enough of it to try to stop you from using your enhanced abilities and shape shifting. But looks like Paige's rage at Allison was able to overpower the monks hood just enough to shape shift in to your wolf form. Which is good because the body of your wolf half is a lot stronger than your human body and that is what kept you alive, Paige, at least until Emily was able to get to you and get you out of there." Spencer continued as she turned around to get something from her chemistry set. When she turned around Spencer was holding a becker containing some kind of bluish purple gunk that looked something like grape juice or grape flavored Gatorade and held it out to Paige. "This is an antidote to the wolf's bane poison that I cooked up after we tested the gunk that we cleaned out of your wounds. Paige if you drink this will clear out the wolf's bane poison within the hour and then you can use your accurate healing abilities to close up your wounds."
"Ok, bottoms up…" Paige said garbing the becker and drinking all of the liquid inside of it. After Paige drink all of it, she made a funny face and started coughing her brains out. "Sorry but that's tastes horrible Spencer. Thanks for making the antidote for me but please remind me never to eat anything you cook."
The face that Paige had made and the comment made both Emily and Spencer to start laughing so hard to the point where both girls to fall over.
"Well serves you right for scaring my staff." Spencer smiled.
"Oh yeah I was meaning to apologize for that." Paige said with a little smile. "So I am sorry about freaking out on you and your staff last night."
"It's ok, just as long as you promise to terrify my medical staff again and we will just call this even." Spencer smiled. "Or else I will turn you in to a frog or something."
"Ok I promise." Paige smiled at Spencer.
Emily finally got a grip on herself, wiping the tears of laughter from her eyes and said with a smile. "Thanks Spence for making that antidote for Paige. But it's time for me to take Paige over to Hanna so she can get the measurements that she needs to make her some new clothes"
Spencer had this huge evil smile across her face when she heard Hanna name. "Yeah you two better get going especially before that antidote takes effect."
Paige looked between the two girls couldn't help but think Oh boy I am in trouble!
Paige's P.O.V.:
When Paige and Emily got to Hanna's room she suddenly saw why Spencer and Emily were laughing and smiling a tab bit evilly. Hanna's room had wall to wall drawings of these frilly, girly dresses for the women of the palace and for the men of the palace there more manly in the designs. Suddenly Emily and Paige heard a high pitched shriek behind them scaring the shit out them. If Emily had not been holding on to Paige, the high pitched shriek would have made Paige to run out of the room. Paige saw finally saw what had made the high pitched noise, it was a blond haired and blue eyed girl that bounced towards them with a big smile on her face.
"HANNA! Do you really have to scream like that? It scared the crap out of both of us." Emily said smiling at the blond.
"Sorry Em I am just so excited to meet your new pet. The Palace has been simply buzzing about her since you brought her here." Hanna smiled at both of them. "Sorry I am being rude I am Hanna and you must be Paige right?"
"Uhmmm…. Yes?" Paige mumbled quietly.
"Ahhhh! You're just so cute!" Hanna squealed grabbing Paige's arm and dragging her over to the small wooden circle that was placed in front of three mirrors. Paige looked over her shoulder at Emily who was leaning against the wall smiling and gave Paige a small nod to let her know that Hanna wasn't going to hurt her. "I wasn't expecting you to be this shy or quiet to tell you the truth after hearing about the small incident that happened last night with Spencer and her medical staff."
"Oh, yeah that was just a small misunderstanding." Paige blushed a little embarrassed.
After Hanna got all of Paige's measurements and wrote them down. She turned to Paige and asked. "What kind of clothing style so you want Paige?"
"I am not sure, I kind of want something I can easily move around in and will not rip very easily." Paige said looking around at the walls at all the clothing designs and stopped in front of a bunch of clothing designs that she seemed to like. "Maybe something like this?"
Hanna came over to get a better look at the designs that Paige seemed to like and started to giggle when she saw that the designs that Paige had chosen were the clothing that she had designed for the Palace squires and pages.
"Well that defiantly seems to suit you and it will defiantly look good on you. I approve and I am sure Emily will too." Hanna said with a smile when she saw that Paige looked down at her feet with a light blush on her face with a small smile on her face too. "I am going to draw up some new updated designs of them for you and let you see the new updated versions of these designs to see if you like them. Ok?"
"Yeah that sounds great. Thanks Hanna." Paige said with a tiny nod.
Emily's P.O.V.:
…A few days later…
A couple of days past and Paige had made a full recovery from the wounds that she had gotten from Allison's whip that just left some faint scars on her body. Paige's full recovery was all thanks to Spencer's antidote that cleared out the traces of wolf's bane in Paige's blood which then allowed Paige's accurate healing abilities to take care of the rest. After they had left Hanna's work room and went back to Emily's bedroom and hung out a little bit was when her accurate healing abilities started to kick in.
Although it was supposed to be a normally non-painful experience for werewolves to be somewhat painful to Paige when it started to itself. Both girls had to admit the watching Paige's body knit itself back together was really amazing to watch. When Spencer came up to check on Paige to see if her body had healed itself yet so she could take out the stitches, Emily had asked her why did it seem to hurt Paige while the cuts closed up. Spencer told her that even though the delay that the wolf's bane had caused a delayed in her body's healing the wounds and the fact that they were so large was the reason behind it.
That night after that incident, Emily talked her parents in to allowing Paige to stay in the palace and work there, since she had no other place to go; but Emily had also convinced them to let Paige be Emily's personal body guard as well. Emily's father thought it was a fantastic idea, although Emily's mother wasn't totally sold on the idea but agreed to it since she was out voted on the matter. And Paige was allowed to sleep in the adjoining bedroom during the day that connected to Emily's.
Even though they were supposed to sleep in the separate rooms Emily still had Paige sleep with her in the same bed because of the nightmares that continued to plagued her during her sleep. Emily had always woken up when she heard Paige having a nightmare and always either had gone to Paige's room, slipped in to Paige's bed, soothed Paige back to sleep there and fell asleep with her there so she wouldn't have any more nightmares or wake up and brought Paige in to her bed so that Paige could sleep there with her. Doing those two things always banished Paige's nightmares for the rest of their sleep.
Ever since Emily had recused Paige from Allison she couldn't help but feel her heart race a little or that her body will heat up ever so slightly when they were together, or saw each other, or when their skin touched ever so briefly, or even when they slept in the same bed all snuggled up together. Emily couldn't help but notice how beautiful Paige was no matter what situation they were in together Emily couldn't take her eyes off of Paige.
Yes Emily, the vampire princess of the Kingdom, couldn't help but fall more in love with her werewolf bodyguard, Paige.
