Tyler's POV"Welcome. How are you both?" Huw and Jenny looked really awkward. "I sure hope nothing's wrong. My nerves are still shot from the last time you looked like this and then the fight.""Let's just go and wait for Emily before we say what we need to," Jenny suggested."Sounds good to me," Huw piped up.We all walked in silence to the dining room. 'Something is going on here. Huw and Jenny seem distant and closed off. How is this conversation going to affect Emily and our news tonight?' I was now panicking until I felt a warm embrace before she even reached me. I'm not going to lie; it helped me relax."Hi guys, how are you? Is everything OK? You don't look so good. Come, sit and have some juice.""Thank you, Em. Um...actually, we have something we need to talk to you about," Jenny started."Sure," Emily said as she poured drinks for everyone."I...I don't know how to say it. Maybe it would be easier to show you?""Whatever makes you more comfortable." I watched as Jenny place

Emily's POVIt's been almost a month since Nate declared war because his mate, my grandma, chose not to be with him because of the monster that he was. Power and greed can change a person and not always in a good way.I am currently standing in front of the bedroom mirror trying to think of different ways that I can reveal my news to Tyler. How was I going to tell Jenny after what she had been through? I feel really selfish right now."Showtime," I said to my reflection as I left the room. I made my way downstairs in search of my husband."Ty, hunny. Where are you?""In the study babe.""Are you busy?""Just general duties. You're more than welcome to come and make my day better."I could feel the smile in his voice which made me smile. I walked to the study with the small envelope in my hand. I hope this is a good surprise for him, I thought, as the anxiety started to kick in. I reached for the door handle and pushed open the door. "Hey babe, you got a sec? I have something I need to

Emily's POVEveryone charged towards the intruders."Keep in groups. They are created this way for a reason. If you go off alone, you will be singled out." I mind linked our fighters."Yes, your majesty," chorused back. Good. At least I know they're listening. Tyler and Huw raced ahead with the others."Give her to me boy and no harm will come to you. I will even give you a consolation prize in return," he painted over to Natalie."Why would I want something like that when I already have the perfect woman for me?" Tyler's words made a smile creep slowly over my face. Listening to their exchange, I hadn't noticed that I was now standing alone with the fighting taking place around me."Feel their energy, their pain. Talk to them," a voice whispered to me in the wind."Why are you doing this? What has gone wrong in your pack for you to turn your back on it?"“We don't like the prophecy or its ending.""For years, silver wolves would dream of being mated to a gold wolf.""Yes, all that po

Tyler's POV"Hey man, are you up?" Huw linked me."Yeah, couldn't sleep. Coffee's ready," before I could finish, Huw walked into the kitchen. We grabbed our coffee and walked into the dining room where the omegas were setting out breakfast. Neither of us felt like eating."I don't know about you Ty, but I don't have much of an appetite today.""Me neither." We both sat there nursing our cups. Not eating is a rare thing for werewolves. We are usually ravenous 24/7 due to the number of calories we burn off during training etc."Good morning," the girls sang as they walked in with their beverages of choice."Would you look at those," Jenny pointed at the pastries. Emily already had her plate stacked with pancakes in front of her. It was twice the size of what she normally would eat. The amount of food they demolished between them was enough for the 4 of us, but yet my stomach rolled at the smell of the food today."How can you be so calm?" Huw asked what I was thinking. I'm sure he has

Huw's POVI have never, in all my years as a royal warrior, have I ever seen the place so busy. Dressmakers, caterers, visitors from neighbouring packs and clans."Whoa!" I exhaled a longer than intended breath. "Jen, how's Em feeling?" I shouted back to her."She's on edge, worried something is going to go wrong and there's nothing I can do to convince her that it will go swimmingly today." She sounded defeated."Don't worry about it babe. I've got this." Walking towards the palace, I opened the mind link to everyone I could. "Can all clan and pack head warriors meet me on the palace driveway. I have something to discuss with you." I immediately closed the link but not before I felt the confusion as to how I managed to do that without being a member of theirs, as well as not being of a high rank.I headed through the forest heading towards the palace with Jen holding my hand. Hmmm, I never knew I could feel like this. If I had, I would've gone looking for my mate sooner.Jenny giggle

Tyler's POVI am sitting in my study when my Beta knocks on the door before entering. Beta Justin Oliver, hand picked by myself during training. He was loyal to a T but also knew how to have a laugh. He was very good at reading people. I feel that he could be an Alpha and will make him one in the future, but he doesn't know that yet."Your majesty, you have guests." He opened the doors to let in the leaders of the other packs and clans."We have received word that the battle will take place in 3 days," Vlad announced."We are ready to fight, are you?" The Lycan's were always big-headed when it came to war."I am always ready and so is my queen. The coronation is tomorrow at noon. I am so glad you will be in attendance. Beta Oliver will show you where you will be staying unless you have arranged alternative accommodation."Three days. Three fucking days. I don't know if we are strong enough. Sure, the witches have helped a lot with the training, but you always have that self-doubt. Wit

OrianaThe pregnancy flew by. Yes, I few times I threatened to kill Gio, especially during labour. It was a good thing that I wasn’t’ allowed my gun in the hospital.On 12th July as 11:52 PM, Antonia was born, weighing 9 pound 4 ounces. I didn’t pay much attention during my scans, especially after I was told that everything looked good, development was good etc. So, it was a bit of a shock when Farid was born less than a minute after Antonia, weighing 8 pound 12 ounces. Both had jet black hair. Antonia had ocean blue eyes and Farid had chocolate brown eyes. Antonia was instantly daddy’s little princess. He vowed that he would protect her until his last breath.“My little prince. I vow to protect you from all the false beauties and to guide you on this road they call life. In return, I ask that you watch over your sister, no matter how annoying she may be,” he gurgled. I smiled. “I take that as your acceptance to our little deal,” I said, placing a kiss on his head.“Thank you, m

Gio“I’m sorry, what?”“I’m pregnant,” Ana whispered again.“Thank you for your call, Teressa. Have a nice day,” I said before I ended the call.“I’m sorry,” she whispered. Tears trickled down her cheeks.“What are you sorry for? You are going to have our baby. Does Lileth and Julian know?” she shook her head. “Please don’t cry, bambalina. I have noticed that you haven’t been yourself since Toni died but, I didn’t want to say anything just in case it was just from recent events.” I pulled her into my lap and kissed her with so much passion that it pulled her out of her shocked state/“You’re not mad?”“Why would I be mad? There is never a perfect time to have a baby and no matter how much you plan and prepare, you will never be prepared either but, you have an excellent support team. OMG! Lileth is going to be over the moon,” I chuckled, and she giggled.‘Knock! Knock!’“Boss, doc is here to see miss Ana.”“Thank you, Francesco,” I answered. “Come on, let’s get you into some

GioI couldn't believe that Ana and I were married. I smiled as I looked at my wife asleep next to me in our bed. My phone beeped with a text message.'Mr Bellomo, your order is complete and ready for collection. Should you wish to arrange delivery, please give us a call.'With everything going on, I had forgotten it's her birthday tomorrow. A party is out of the question due to recent events but I will make sure she celebrates it in some way, shape or form. I got dressed and headed to the kitchen to prepare breakfast for my wife to eat on bed.After making a mess in the kitchen, I headed back to our room, breakfast in hand. Placing the tray on the side table, I climbed onto the bed and kissed my beautiful wife to wake her up."Ana, sweetheart. Time to wake up. I made you breakfast.""Mmmm," Ana stretched and smiled at me. "Good morning, husband." Those words sounded amazing coming out of her mouth."Good morning, wife," I replied, kissing her."Did you make much of a mess?" S

BiancaIt was the morning of the wedding. I was in charge of making sure the women were ready on time, including the brief but, I couldn’t find her.“Lileth!” I bellowed.“Yes, Bianca. What can I help you with?”“Have you seen Ana? I can’t find her. I know she didn’t stay with Gio, and I have checked the spare rooms. No one has seen her. Before you ask, no, I didn’t say anything to Gio about her being missing.”“Well, there are only 2 places that I can think of that she might be,” Lileth said. Damn it woman, now is not the time for games.“Which are?” I pushed.“Her house or Antonio’s room.” Of course. Why didn’t I think of the obvious. I made my way to Toni’s room and there she was, sat in the nook by the window, holding a letter.“Ana, I have been looking all over for you.” I walked towards her and could see that she had been crying again. “Nope. Not happening today. Today is going to be a happy day. Toni would kick my ass if it’s not,” Ana chuckled. “What do you have there?

LilethDoc did an amazing job patching the bullet wound in Toni’s head. I brought his favourite blue suite, crisp white shirt, polished shoes and everything else over when doc called.“Lileth. He’s ready to be dressed,” doc said as he exited the autopsy room. I nod and follow him into the family room. A comforting aura in this room. Julian, Lans and I got him dressed and styled his hair. “Even in death, he wears a goofy smile on his face,” Julian chuckled.“I suppose you’re right,” I giggled. “That’s what made him, him. Serious when the situation called for it but a little scallywag at times.” I couldn’t help but smile at the memories of his prankster ways growing up. We all had good and bad memories of Antonio from the number of years that we have worked in the family and when Ana is ready, we will tell them all to her.We had just placed Antonio into the casket when Gio came into the room.“Where’s Ana?” I asked.“She’s outside the door freaking out right now. Is there any w

Oriana I was so exhausted. Why Toni? What have I done in my life that was so bad that bad things keep happening to me? I felt numb, empty. I wanted someone to come and say that he’s still alive and that it was all a prank. I was getting married tomorrow but my brother won’t be there to see me walk down the aisle. He would’ve been my first dance after Gio and instead of the traditional father daughter dance. I hadn’t told him that bit; it was going to be a surprise. I had already spoken to Alessia to fit it into the plans. I should be happy right now and getting ready for my hen party, as they called it here but, I just didn’t want to go. I would feel better is they carried on with the party without me. I locked myself in my room and cried until I fell asleep. I woke up and repeated the routine. With a deep sigh, I got up and headed for the shower. As the water cascaded over my body, the memories of Toni’s goofy behaviour flooded my mind. The way I scared him after mastering my ghost
