He smiled reassuringly but that night when everyone was asleep he slipped out into the forest, shifting quickly he ran mile after mile until he reached the very outskirts of his boundaries. Leaping onto a large boulder he stood gazing across the land his eyes brilliant golden orbs. The wind lifted his snow-white coat as he remained still searching for something. When he found it he startled the green-eyed beauty as he looked through her eyes at her reflection in the mirror. She was not afraid of him as she stared challengingly back and a seed was planted in each of them. He stepped back and lifted his head howling into the wind, standing by her window she heard him and her heart quickened as she gazed into the night,‘MATE!’She whispered and heard his reply,‘MATE!The next morning Aurora woke with a start and a stiff body, she had fallen asleep on the throne, she looked around her and went in search of food. In the Dining Room, the Warriors all stood and bowed when she entered,‘Lea
She handed around her laws and they tried to protest but there was nothing they could do, she was the Leader and her word was now the law. It was all written down by the Royal legal team and she had missed nothing.‘Go home’She told them,‘This ends now’As she waited she saw the fight go out of them, she was their Leader and she could make whatever rules she wanted. Sensing their acceptance she was magnanimous,‘Councillor’He stopped and looked back at her‘I will need Guards and our Borders will need patrols. Can I count on you to provide them?’He positively beamed at her,‘Of course Your Highness, it will be an honour’He bowed low and they all left she made her way to what had been her Father's rooms earlier that day she had assigned some of the servants to remove all traces of him, the rooms had been scrubbed and the dark, heavy masculine furniture was replaced with more feminine pieces. Her clothes and bits and pieces had been put away as she made it hers, opening the windows
He chuckled as she sank back into the water pulling the bubbles over her to hide herself,‘I don’t think so my little mate and before you try to block me again don’t bother you are not the only one with tricks, and now I am going to punish you for your disobedience.’He felt her anger growing and it aroused him further, he could not physically punish her, he would leave that until he had marked and mated her but he could control her with his mind.‘Stand up.’He commanded exercising all his Alpha control he felt her fighting him trying to ignore the command so he pushed harder and Aurora felt her resistance crumbling. Before she could stop herself her arms pushed against the sides of the bath and she stood, the bubbles and the water trickling down her body leaving her naked. Alexis pushed further,‘Go and stand in front of the mirror.’He ordered becoming aroused as her cheeks flamed with embarrassment, he could feel her heart rate increasing and she bit her bottom lip trying to put u
Aurora hardly slept her body was so on fire that every time she closed her eyes she saw his beautiful face with those incredible ice-blue eyes staring into hers raking her body and making her feel things she had never felt before. She tossed and turned so hot she kicked off her sheets to let the cool night air rase the burning at her core, nothing worked, even a second ice-cold shower brought only temporary relief. After rummaging in her closet she found an old electric fan and plugged it in, it wasn’t very powerful but it gave her some relief, ‘Come to me’The Alpha had commanded, but his intense Alpha command did not work on her as she carried Alpha blood, even if she did not know she was a Werewolf. A shiver went down her spine as she heard him command her again she had never wanted anything more than to do as he bid right at that moment but she was the Leader and that meant responsibilities. No one had ever explained her Lycan heritage and the one person who could have done so h
His temper grew more and more aggressive at his inability to smash down the walls she had placed around herself and after forty-eight hours without any success, he went wild with anger lashing out at his Pack during training until his Beta told him to stop before he killed someone. He growled and vowed when he reconnected with her he was going to let her know that if she tried to block him again he would punish her.‘This is beyond ridiculous.’Alexis growled at Karl after another futile day trying to contact her,‘Get the Warriors ready, I am not putting up with this from my little mate she needs to understand that as my Luna she must always obey me. At dawn tomorrow we will leave to go and fucking get her.’Karl bowed his head he had never seen Alexis lose control the way he had since finding he had a mate who was proving quite a challenge, he hoped that she was tough though because his Alpha was getting out of control.Aurora had been furious when her so-called mate tried to domina
The warmth intensified and she felt soothed and loved,‘Don’t be afraid my little one, you are strong and this Alpha is your fated mate he will complete you. Let him love you my child only together can you make this world a safer place for our Species. The Blessing of the Goddess is upon you Aurora.’The bright light shone brilliantly around her for a few seconds and the nearby Patrollers saw it and looked away afraid its intensity would blind them but as quickly as it appeared it disappeared and they heard a soft gasp. Aurora had collapsed onto the floor unconscious and they heard the soft thud of her body hitting the soft moss-covered earth cushioning her from any serious injury. The Patrollers found her almost immediately and stood around sniffing the air not quite sure what she was, she did not smell like the Rogues they normally apprehended but then she could have been clever and masked her scent to avoid their detection. Karl linked his Alpha who was about to climb into his SUV
Karl looked shocked and mind-linked his friend growling,‘Alexis WTF?’‘I gave a direct order Karl do not challenge me.’His tone was cold and dismissive and Karl backed off instantly making his voice submissive he replied,‘Forgive me Alpha my only concern was for your welfare’‘I am perfectly safe now leave me in peace. All will be explained in good time,’Alexis promptly blocked his Pack and sat beside his Mate, taking her small hand in his he felt the sparks running through him, there was no doubt in his mind who she was to him and he was determined she would understand it too.Aurora opened her eyes slowly, the room was dimly lit but the smell that assaulted her nose was disinfectant, she knew she was in a hospital bed and a frown etched her face.‘How had she got to a hospital?’The last thing she remembered was crossing the boundary line into that damn Alpha’s land after that everything was a blank taking a few minutes to adjust a second scent hit her. It was incredible a lemon
She said calmly and reached for her dress pulling it over her head to cover herself as she went on twisting the knife deeper,‘I am of Royal Blood, a Princess, the Ruler of the Hunters, so go right ahead and blame me for all the terrible things my Ancestors did to yours, hate me if you must, I do not care. I am not and never will be ashamed of who I am.’Lifting her head her eyes turned brilliant gold as her wolf Venus came through for the very first time,‘But know this you arrogant, self-centred Alpha, I am also the daughter of Meredith, Luna of the Mountain Pack, I have Alpha blood running through my veins just as you do and your Mother was the daughter of my grandfather's Alpha’Before he could stop her she was gone, using her magic she just closed her eyes and thought of her room and when she opened them she was back there.Stripping off her dress she stumbled into her shower and turned it on full power sinking to the floor she began sobbing hysterically. Eventually, she pulled h
The Knight scowled and drew a small razorsharp knife from his boot,‘Very well Warlock I see it has come to this. You will never let me claim what is rightfully mine, I get that.‘He raised the knife and the darkness around them intensified,‘That would be a very foolish thng to do Mordred.’He looked up as Morgana approached him,‘You have no say in this you traitrous bitch. We had everything and you threw it away. Together we could have reigned Camelot, we could have ..’His voice trailed off in anguish,‘No brother, we had nothing, and you now it but won’t accept it. We could never beat Arthur, he was/is Englands greatest King. He is at peace now sleeping but when he is needed he will return and save this green and pleasant land heloved so much. Killing the Hybrid will not change that, mating her will bring you nothing, she is not yours to mate with.’Morgana stopped in front of him and lifted her hand taking the silver knife and placing it beside Aurora then she took Mordreds hand
He indicated his men who now stood around the room guns drawn pointing toward the witches in the circle.‘I don’t care how many of them I have to kill but you will tell me.’Two shots rang out in the quiet Ballroom and two witches collapsed to the floor blood streaming from their chests. Aurora slowly pushed herself to her feet, she was not quite fully aware of what had happened to her but instinct told her she had to stop Mordred and his men.‘He is unhurt.’She said meeting the eyes of Mordreds Military Leader,‘He is back at your base but you tell him if he comes for me again I will not spare his life.’‘You do not have that choice little Hybrid, I have claimed you and that fucking puppy cannot protect you from my magic.’She let out a gasp of pain as cuffs appeared on her wrists and ankles and she found herself in a dungeon chained to a damp wall, unable to access her magic. Mordred appeared with his men,‘Don’t bother trying little Hybrid those cuffs are spelled to block your mag
The Priestess linked the other witches of the Coven and they formed a circle around Aurora holding hands and joining their powers,‘No one will hurt your wolf little Hybrid all I ask is for you to send her to sleep until this ceremony is over. She has no part to play in it and it would be in her interests to step aside voluntarily.’She told her and strangely enough, Aurora agreed gently urging Venus to her corner to sleep, and the wolf could not resist her human power curling up and drifting into sleep without a murmur.The instant Venus disconnected from her as she went into a deep REM sleep the pain hit and Aurora’s body arched up as if shocked by electricity a scream torn from her lips. The Ballroom went dark, all the candles were snuffed out and the people shuffled and whispered nervously‘Do not move any of you and please maintain your silence. What is about to happen to our little Hybrid will be painful but not life-threatening to her. It is not a pleasant sight to witness but
This was her destiny, what her mother wanted for her, these women were her family, descending from the Great Warlock just as she had. Lifting her chin she began to walk down the stairs, instantly all eyes turned to look at her and she heard the gasps of wonder, she looked radiant, ethereal and more beautiful than ever. The Priestess came forward and took her hand,‘Come Hybrid, it is almost time.’She allowed her to lead her to the Sacred Cross. It was worn smooth, and the pale golden wood seemed to glow warm in the candlelight as they stopped in front of it.‘My fellow Witches, it is nearly time for the blooding, the Moon is about to reach its zenith and our Hybrid is returned to us.’Aurora focused on the cross not wanting to see the people watching or she knew she would panic and run back to her room. She hated being the centre of attention but this could not be avoided. She was jerked back into the present when the Priestess placed her hand on her arm,‘Are you ready Hybrid?’She
He growled his head turning from side to side in agitation,‘Alpha, she is with her sisters. Tonight is the equinox of the Blood Moon, when it reaches its zenith at midnight Aurora will be blooded into the Coven and come into her full powers.’Alexis spun around not liking the sound of a ‘blooding’‘Sisters? What are you talking about? Aurora does not have any Siblings she is an only child.’Gideon looked puzzled and Luke frowned,‘She has never mentioned any Siblings to us Morgana.’The Witch smiled and shook her head,‘No, you misunderstand me, Gentlemen. The sisters I am referring to are the Coven members, they are her relatives however distant the blood link is all the Daughters of Merlin are related through their blood.’Alexis growled again this time it was deeper and more commanding imposing his Alpha powers on them,‘Will you focus on the reason we are here, we are close she is here somewhere and I need to find her urgently. If she is blooded tonight then I must mate with her
Morgana glared at him,‘Do not mock what you do not understand Alpha. Aurora truly is a Daughter of Merlin, a rare and special witch with powers beyond anything I can only dream of. When she finally joins with her Coven they will remove all the blocks her mother put in place and she will fly solo for the first time, her powers will be absolute. You will have forty-eight hours to mate her and claim her for yourself after that your mark will heal and she will be at the mercy of every Male with a pulse.’Alexis had not been aware of this,‘What do you mean my mark will heal? She is my mate and I have already claimed her as mine.’‘You did not complete the mating Alpha. Without that final act, you are not fully mated and the magic will find that out she will have no say in it, the mark will heal overnight and I would guess she will be thrown straight into a Haze. She needs to be mated with a pup in her belly so her wolf and her magic can unite within her and release her full potential.’Mo
His voice was bleak as he strode out to the waiting SUV, four of his Warriors were tracking her through the woods and the rest of them were going by car they hoped to pick her up quickly she was bound to be lost she did not know the area.He underestimated Aurora’s ability to navigate through situations such as these, she had learned very early in her life that she could rely on no one but herself. There was no knight in shining armour coming to rescue her she had to learn to fend for herself and she had suffered many brutal beatings from her father along the way. He had wanted her meek and docile dependent on him, his pretty obedient daughter, if she stepped out of line for even the slightest misdemeanour he whipped her. He aimed to break her so badly it would kill her wolf but she had grown too powerful and he had never known about the magic her mother had blessed her with on her death. She found her way to the outskirts of London and snagged some clothes from a washing line and
She pushed back and Logan gave a deep growl, he had never been challenged in this way before, as Alpha his Pack obeyed him without question,‘How was this little female wolf holding him off.’He frowned,‘You have magic.’It was a statement, not a question and he reined in his Alpha power and smiled at her,‘You are not the only one.’ He whispered and nodded toward an elderly female shifter who had come into the lounge, Aurora let out a howl of pain as invisible hands picked her up and flung her across the room. She hit the wall so hard three of her ribs cracked and pain shot through her every time she took a breath, spinning around she faced the woman and lifted her head her eyes glowing molten gold. Logan watched his witch’s expression change, she had been confident when she spoke to him through their Pack link, but now a look of sheer terror crossed her face
He groaned fighting with himself, he had meant to tease her a little and then leave her to shower wanting more, they did not know each other and he had planned to take his time getting to know her before getting her into his bed. She nipped his lip then when he lifted his head to look into her eyes and followed that by nipping his neck as she was level with his chest he groaned when she bent her head and sucked his nipple making him lose his battle to take it slowly. Breaking the kiss he spun her around placing his large hand over both her small ones pinning her to the glass.‘Mine.’He grunted bending her forward and pressing his engorged cock between her ass cheeks pushing at her entrance, she was making soft little panting noises of pleasure and arched her back offering herself to him. Logan was beyond speech as his wolf roared forward at the scent of her arousal it was so powerful he lost all sense of reason and grabbed her roughly with one hand on her hip and the other tangling i
