Ariel smiled, “my mom loved that movie. So loved it, because it was the first red haired girl she saw in a movie. So when I was born with the same hair color as her, she named me Ariel. She loved the show too, since there was a girl who was deaf, just like her.” “Your mom sounds nice. Where is she
Ela’s pov I got to the car to check on Ariel, opened the door and sat in the driver seat. “I thought we were friends.” She said, crying. “We are. I mean, I want us to be.” I replied. “Why would you do that? Is this some sort of prank? Is this how you thought I would talk? Just let some guy prete
“And why did they send you to do something with me?” She asked. “Well, they wanted you to be friends with someone. So you’d feel more comfortable here. I was worried, but Luna Lily said to just be friendly with you. That it didn’t matter what you told me or didn’t. So I am trying. I don’t really ca
Lily’s pov Ela and Ariel have been meeting regularly, which I know because the kitchen smells heavenly every afternoon. Ariel is still hiding out in the room for the rest of the time, not going to the dining hall when we eat in the evening or morning. Cyrus is keeping Os updated, I think it’s just
Emma looked at Kate. “We should make a bet who her mate will be. Cyrus seems to think it will be Leia. But who knows, maybe Ela or Meadow will be pregnant soon. Or it can be someone from another pack, just like us.” “I’d be happy with whoever the Moon Goddess chose, just as long as Kate is.” I repl
Troy’s pov The doorbell rang and I opened the door, seeing Ela and someone I had never seen before. She smelled delicious, though it could be the baked goods they were bringing. Ela and I had dated for a while and I thought we would work as a couple. We were friends first and that is most importan
I got inside my car and drove to the farm. I didn’t know Cyrus well, but had heard a lot about him. “Hey, so you’re the new trainer? You’d better fucking treat her right. Ariel has the sweetest heart I have ever fucking seen.” I smiled, “I will make her stronger, but I won’t push her too far. I pr
Troy’s pov I have been training Ariel for a week now and she has yet to say more than a few sentences to me. That doesn’t mean I am giving up, I just have to be patient. Which isn’t my strong suit. I have only told Jara about us being mates, well and Ela. Not because I’m ashamed, I just don’t want
I noticed Cyrus wasn't swearing because all the kids were here. I knew it was hard for him to keep the fucks in. Jara smiled, “when I came out, I was so nervous. My parents always raised us to accept everyone, but what if the pack didn’t accept me? But my little brother Riker was perfect. He told m
The end. Lily’s pov It has been a year since Riker died. Mia is moving out next month and Damian and Kane will move in. Things are changing, life is moving on. But tonight we are looking back. Remembering Riker and the impact he had on our lives. Osiris had invited everyone that was important to
Osiris’ pov “I think you should make Damian the official Beta. He’s been doing Riker’s job for almost a year now and he deserves it.” Lily said. I shook my head, “it feels wrong. And what will happen to Mia and the kids? They’ve grown up here.” Lily sighed, “you know what’s wrong? Not rewarding D
Cyrus’ pov “Dad, I know you have a brother and a niece, uncle Joshua and Melanie. But any more family, I should know of. I have to make this fucking family tree.” Leia said. “Language.” April yelled from across the room. I still sometimes spoke to my brother, Josh and Melanie, but not as often as
Mia’s pov “Mom can you tell us again how you and dad met?” Sierra asked me. She and Roman looked at me filled with anticipation. I had promised I would tell them about Riker and me. What he was like when he was younger and how everything started. I had been avoiding it. Scared it would make me cry
Osiris’ pov “So what was the first time you felt like something was your fault?” Was I really doing this? Going to therapy? I thought I could just talk to Lily and Cyrus, but they seemed to think I need more help. That it’s not just Riker’s death, but everything that happened. I don’t mind therapy
Cyrus’ pov “I have barely seen him now, for three weeks. He works and then at night he goes out and patrols. He didn’t even attend the funeral. I am so worried.” “Luna Lily, I’m sure he’s okay. He’s just dealing with Beta Riker’s death in a different way.” April said, trying to calm Lily down. Li
Lily’s pov Once Asher was asleep, I got dressed and went downstairs. Mia had broken the news to Roman and everyone was crying. Sierra was still covered in blood and staring ahead. “How can I help?” I asked Arya. “Maybe that’s what you should ask Mia? See how you can help?” Arya advised. Mia was
“No Ashie. No Ashie. You’re not weak. It’s okay.” I felt thorn. I didn’t know if I needed to go help Mia and Sierra, or go home with my boy. Or go and look for Osiris. I took Asher’s hand in mine and we walked back to Mia. Jara was there, apparently Mia had mindlinked her. “Okay, Mia has someone
