Alari's pov Waddling into the library as fast as I could, my eyes rounded before relief flooded me.“Pearl! Hide me!” I said, moving as fast as I could while reaching out my hands for her to grab.Aaaaah yes, reduced from a war hero to a heavily pregnant, waddling mess, how glorious!“Alari!” Dad's voice came first, followed by rushed foot steps.“She's in here!” Pearl yelled, making me freeze where I stood, my eyes going wide with shock.“You traitor!” I grabbed the closest book to me and chucked it at her, watching her laugh as she dodged my weapon of destruction.“What's going on?” Mason asked, coming out from behind a shelf. “Somebody doesn't want to drink her medicine” Pearl sang, swaying side to side like she was enjoying my torture.Dad burst through the door with my grandfather right behind him. I grabbed another book and spun to face them, threatening them with it. “Don't fight, just take a little sip or two” dad said, raising his empty hand up in surrender. I growled at

Alari's pov “Alari! Wake up, I need you to wake up now!” a pretty voice floated over me, making me groan. Fuck! What was that pain! Why couldn't I open my eyes?!“Baby listen to me, I need you to open your eyes, right now!” Pretty voice is panicking, wonder why?“Open your eyes!” Pretty voice wasn't so pretty when it was giving me a headache.Fucking ouch! My eyes fluttered and I was met with blurry darkness, then green, and they fluttered closed again.I felt like I was being pulled, no, dragged, by my arms and they fucking hurt!“Baby please, wake up!” Sobbing, why was she sobbing?My eyes fluttered again but this time, a blinding white greeted me, and a face, a pretty blurred face shouting over me.“That's it, come on! Fight the darkness, ignore the pain, wake up!” She said, my eyes clearing a little.“M..mom?” Speaking burnt my throat, why was it so dry?Darkness enveloped me again, but I fought it, and opened my eyes again.“Oh, somebody calling her mommy? Don't worry my littl

Alari's pov “Kill them! Kill all of them!” Helena screeched, making her army spring into action. “Don't you dare leave my side!” Damien growled.“Don't you dare leave my side!” Vivica repeated, cracking her neck.Chaos, that's the best way to explain what was happening. Cal and his group jumped from the trees like samurai, cutting down the creatures they fell on. Stopping the first wave from reaching us.But there was too many, and soon enough, they got past them. Grandpa, who was in the front line, broke the spear he'd been holding in half and drove the two sharp ends through the chests of two beasts that had flung themselves at him. They were brutal, and unforgiving, and one by one, the beasts fell, one after the other but there were too many, and without fail, I found myself driving my crystal clear spear into inky black fur.I didn't get a chance to celebrate my kill because another one launched itself over the dead one, coming straight for me. Literally thinking on my toes, I

Alari's pov “Viv come on, we didn't come here to fight” Cal shook his head, before turning his pained gaze to me.His eyes held longing, and when his hands clenched, I knew he was holding himself back.Before me was a man that grew up with my mother, trained with her, loved her, even when she couldn't reciprocate.Unrequited love, and then she died… how sadVivica closed her eyes, breaking eye contact with my grandfather and breathed deeply.“I'm sorry, that's not the first impression I want you to have of me” she spoke softly, her words directed to me. She had no idea I knew all about her, how feisty she was, her temper, and all the trouble she and my mother got into. “We just want to know you, and Roan is hogging you to himself!” She sent a glare my grandfather's way before relaxing her gaze when she returned it to me.“And you will, but right now, we must leave” grandpa said with an edge to his voice, leaving very little room for argument but the change is Vivica’s expression to

Alari's pov The clothes my grandfather had given made us blend in, well, me more than Damien but he was pretty close and looked very, very yummy. With his muscled arms on display, I wanted to rip the entire shirt of and feast on him!“You two look great” grandfather said as he turned away from the river to face us.“Thank you” I smiled, watching a little sadness flicker in his eyes. I must be wearing my mother's clothes.“How about a tour of the realm of creation” he said, making me wonder what he meant by realm of creation, I thought this was the Kingdom of the dark elves…?I wanted to ask what he meant but a bubbling feeling of impending doom pushed the questions aside, I needed to warm him about Helena.“Grandpa, we need to talk about something, it's important” I said, trying not to show how scared I actually was. If anything happened to them because of me, I don't think I could live with myself.“What is it?” He frowned, giving me a once over before his eyes settled on mine.“N

Alari's pov Grandpa embraced me, his hold a little too tight, like he still couldn't believe that I was here. Heck, neither could I! This has always been something too absurd to even dream, wish for, and now, I had it.“How about we make breakfast and you can tell me all about you, mhm?” he said, pulling back to look into my eyes as if searching for something. “She's gone” I smiled at him, which he returned. “Good, I've lost enough people to that woman” he said, his expression turning sour. “We won't lose anyone else, I promise” I said, taking both his hands into mine. I'd hoped to reassure him but the way his face fell told me I wasn't even close.“Oh sweetheart, that's a promise no one can make. Helena is a very powerful and dangerous witch, a very old one at that, making her even more dangerous” he said with a sigh.There were many emotions swimming in his eyes but the most prominent one was fear. My grandfather was afraid of Helena and if I was being honest, I was too.But th

Mia's povTwo years later"Why didn't anyone tell me pregnancy was shit!" Britney literally yelled as she tried to stand from the couch she'd been sitting but found it difficult with with her big round belly. It's been two years since I became Luna and boy was it crazy, the good kind of crazy. As we'd suspected, Wade and Meredith were mates and that boy didn't waste time knocking the girl up. "I did, I told you, you just didn't listen and always went crazy over my cute baby" Meredith answered, sipping on a margarita. "Urg Meredith, leave me alone" Britney whined, making me smile and almost cry as I saw myself bloated and unable to do anything in a few months. Just not with twins though, Britney was bringing twins into the world and boy were we excited for the little monsters to get here. And yes, I was pregnant too, found out this morning. Trevor and I had decided to wait before making babies but it seems like fate had other plans for us, and now I had to figure out how to tell

Mia's povI don't know why, but my heart hurt. Not too much but enough. Here I was, watching the life fade from my aunt's eyes while I held the murder weapon in my hands, twisting it until her body fell limp on the ground. She was my aunt, my family! Why did she hate me so much? Wasn't she supposed to love me? Accept me? And yet, she was the very reason for my misery. "She deserved it" were the words my wolf said to make me feel better about killing my own blood but I didn't work. I wasn't like Serena, killing my family wasn't something I took pride in. Why did she have to be my enemy? "Mia?" Trevor's voice interrupted my thoughts, making me avert my gaze from the still bleeding corpse to my mate, who's eyes held so much grief and confusion, even in his wolf form. "I'm okay" I said but I know we both knew I was lying, I wasn't fine, far from it. "Selene, are you alright?" I heard Gaya ask and turned to see the moon Goddess sitting against a tree, her dress soaked in blood and a h

Trevor's povMy hands fisted as blood rained over us, killing the flames slowly, our efforts dying right before our eyes. "We got as many as we could, now let's get the others!" Drew growled in my head and my teeth clench. "She sure is going the extra mile tonight, she usually leaves when she notices some resistance" Wade said, bringing light to an issue I hadn't even realised. "You don't think she's making her final stance, do you?" Britney asked, making Wade shrug but I think we all knew she was. "What happened to waiting for the full moon?" Uncle Mika grumbled, watching the witch with so much disdain. "Maybe she figured out we'd all be stronger on a full moon" mom said with a sigh. She seemed so tired and frail but I knew better than to believe that. She was only saddened by the unnecessary deaths of so many wolves, she wasn't any weaker. The flames finally died down and the grounds were plunged into complete darkness. "Get ready!" Mia yelled as howls on the other side of the

Mia’s pov Chaos and fear greeted me the moment I stepped outside the pack house, everyone was in a rush. I could see Britney in the distance helping people into the bunker and I could detect movement in the forest and the others were just waiting on the Alpha’s command to rush to the border but not tonight. But in the midst of all this rushing around, our friends made sure everyone was moving in the right direction. “Seems like our friends are handling themselves well” Trevor said standing behind me and I had to agree, it did look like they were handling themselves well. “We should give the command for border patrol to come back” I said with a deep sigh. The reality of what Trevor and I were about to do finally dawned on me and I couldn’t help the nervous shiver that went through me. They were getting closer, I could feel it but there was something different this time, something dark and sinister and it chilled me to the bone. “Where are the witches?” I asked, wanting to make s

Trevor‟s pov “That has to be the craziest thing you‟ve ever said” Britney said after listening to Mia‟s idea and as much as I love my mate, I had to side with Brit. “A fire of that magnitude can cause more harm than good” Cole said backing his mate up. “I know how dangerous it could get but it won‟t” she said, making our friends shake their heads. “Baby, as effective as that would be against those things, I have to stand with Britney and Cole” I said, a part of me feeling like I had betrayed her or something. The mate bond could be shitty sometimes. “So what? We just wait to get picked off one by one? We‟re losing here!” she said, the frustration in her voice hitting a little too deep. We were all frustrated about the war but it was different with Mia. She blamed herself for every fallen warrior and their mate if they didn‟t survive the loss of their mate. Those that did survive it were shells of themselves, left to raise their children alone and it was tearing her apart. “M

Serena's povThis! This is what victory looks like! Watching them fall one by one. My beautiful creation turning them into my mindless killing machines! This is what winning looks like. "You see Adeline, I always get what I want" I whispered, looking down from my bedroom window, watching my sleeping army."I bet you wish you'd just walked away from that mutt when I told you to, don't you big sister" I said, an overwhelming feeling of accomplishment washing over me. But I guess I can see the appeal, they weren't so bad, they make great soldiers that never tire and are just so much stronger. Though I must admit, their numbers were growing at an alarming rate. Occupying so much of my territory, but I guess I had to make peace with it, for now. But oddly enough, their growing numbers had a weird effect on me, almost like an orgasm, a mind blowing one at that. They were going to deliver that useless pack to me on a silver platter. "I wouldn't call it a silver platter, given the condi
