Chapter 146
Alora’s POV
Our luggage was taken by the bell hops to be stored in our cars, we were taking a limo to the restaurant, after breakfast we would return to the Hotel for our vehicles. The girl Sunny River McKnight, came down in an oversized black t-shirt and a pair of army green cargo pants and black Doc Martins.
Around her neck was a thin black ribbon with a white crystal hanging from it. She had all her curly hair up in a high tail, a few of the curly strands were free, refusing to be contained. With her hair up I could see her ears were not pierced, and they were faintly tipped at the tops.
That was usually the mark of a Dragon Master, bringing Selena and Xena forward, we take in her scent to see what we could find. After analyzing her scent, we found she smelled almost completely human, but their was just a faint trace of something else, something that I couldn’t place. 3
“Damien…smell the girl and tell me what you get.” I say through mind link.
Damien takes in a breath and is silent for a moment. While I was waiting I observed the girl more, she seemed shy this morning, a little withdrawn. She was practically hiding behind Asher, and Asher was looking a little helpless about what to do. Looking at the worry on Asher’s face, and the gentle care he took with the girl, I suddenly had questions. Was the girl attached to Asher because he was the one who saved her, or was there something more at play.
Damien’s mind link startled me from my thoughts “She is not one hundred percent human, maybe sixty to eighty percent, but there is something ancient, very ancient in her blood, older than the Werewolves, the Vampires, older than the Witches and Dragon Masters even.” He tells me.
“What do you think it is?” I asked him.
“It not being Dragon Master, only leaves one species, one that’s left our world for their own long ago.” he says grimly.
“Elves, your talking about elves” I said, surprised. O
“Darling mate, you know very well the word Elves is an insult to what those beings were, the Sidhe….are much more than Elves” He says. 2
I knew, and was sorry I had used the term for them the moment I had. “But how?…Both the Seelie and the Unseelie Courts took all their people when they departed this plane for another, and they sealed all the entrances to and from that plane, after the War that nearly obliterated the Black Magic Coven.”
“Clearly, they were either not all taken to the Fae world, or some continue to come and go from our world.” He said.
I decided I was going to wait till we were in the limo to ask her some questions, for now I greet the girl with a friendly smile and offer her a warm hug. “I’m glad your up and walking.” Leaning back, my hand
on her upper arms I ask “How are you this morning, did Asher get everything you needed?” I asked her.
She glances to the side at Asher as soon as I mention his name, blushing she nods. “Asher went and picked up all my things from….that house.” she said the last quietly. I bring her back for another hug, feeling like she needed it. 2
The limo gets there and I wrap an arm around her shoulders and lead her with me to sit next to me in the limo, Damien sat on my other side, and Asher sat next to him. It seemed Asher wanted to talk to Damien about something, probably the girl.
“I’m going to apologize now if I seem rude, but we Werewolves are nosey by nature.” I start, getting a giggle from the girl.
“Your ears, do you know which parent you got them from?” I asked her.
A sad smile came over her face. “My dad…my real dad.” she says.
“If you don’t mind me asking….can you tell me a little of your families history, and how it was you got to be here?” I asked her. 2

I'm really enjoying the story but the overuse of "my mate" starts to get old. Also, I understand that it isn't a final edited copy but lot of grammatical and spelling errors that I'm coming across on all the chapters. Is there someone editing this? Is there a way to remove the update references?...
