He demanded as he saw Karl's look of sheer terror. Giving in to the primal calling of his wolf, he shifted and exploded out of the Pack House, racing toward the dungeon doors. Aurora was in a bad place, everywhere she looked there were bodies and blood, it was a nightmare and she could not seem to escape,‘Why couldn’t she find a way through the chaos?’She thought this because when she tried, she went around in circles, always ending back in the same spot. Confused and anxious, she tried again and again. Something was wrong, very wrong, with this situation. It could not possibly be real, and she growled angrily when she came back to the same spot for the twenty-fifth time.In the dungeon, her unconscious body twisted and turned deep growls coming from her chest as her wolf tried desperately to bring her around from the sedative Karl had given her. When the door burst open and light flooded the dungeon she never reacted and Alexis stared at her stunned,‘What the fuck have you done
Smiling back Morgana understood, that Aurora’s mother had been part witch and she channelled some of her magic into returning through the veil of death to comfort her only child.‘Do you know what your Mama was little one?’She asked now and Aurora grinned,‘My name is Aurora you can use it now, Mama told me to be careful but I think she would like you because you are like her.’Morgana raised an eyebrow,‘I am like your Mama?’‘Yes, you are a witch just like my Mama.’She stood looking at Morgana no longer afraid of her,‘Why are you hiding here Aurora?’The little girl looked away and then back,‘Because if my Papa finds out that I am a witch too, well not just a witch I have faery blood too and that makes my magic unique Mama told me.’Morgana gasped this was incredible the young Luna was a very powerful conduit for magic, probably the most powerful on the planet and she was unaware of it.‘Your Papa cannot harm you any more little one, you are free to practice whenever you want.’
Her eyes held a plea for understanding and he knew he had to listen to her,‘What do you suggest little Wolf?’He sat on the bed next to her and pulled her onto his lap, she fit so perfectly, her body moulded to his and she rested her head against his hard-muscled chest,‘We can fight.’She whispered sadly,‘But even with my help, it is seriously doubtful that we will win there are just too many of them and they have endless resources.’‘What other option do we have, this is our home and has been for many centuries.’He felt his heart breaking. Just the thought of leaving these mountains was tearing him to pieces, but he already knew her answer.‘There are Packs related to yours across the great oceans, you must head for the Sequoia Pack in Sierra Nevada, California, they have a good sized Pack and their Alpha is ageing and has no Heir. From what I know of your bloodline he is directly related to the same Sibling as you, his Ancestors were already inhabiting the continent that became
A small voice of reason amongst the dissenters but it was too late for the angry Alpha he had shifted and leapt into the middle of the traitors,‘Protect mate.’Jupiter roared inside his head and snapped the neck of the first dissenter turning swiftly to rip out the throat of the second, in an instant the rest of them were lay on the ground submissively exposing their necks,‘Forgive us Alpha.’The other four cried trembling before his wrath, the enormous white wolf snarled, he was so huge and powerful that he made a terrifying sight as he lowered his head,‘Like you wanted to forgive my mate?’He growled his jaws snapping the neck of a third traitor just as his warriors came racing around the corner,‘Alpha, you sent for us?’Gideon, the Leader of his Warriors stood to attention ignoring the bodies on the floor and the trembling traitors, Alexis took control from his wolf and shifted back into his human form,‘Take them to the dungeon and find out if there are any more who feel the w
He whispered so only she could hear his eyes never leaving Gideon, who bowed his head submissively. It was obvious his Alpha was obsessed with his new mate.‘Call the Pack Gideon, and ask them to be in the arena in thirty minutes, it is time I met everyone.’’Aurora watched the Warrior Leader rush away to do as she asked glad to be out of the range of the volatile Alpha and Alexis grinned wickedly,‘Come with me.’He pulled her into the Pack House and up the stairs to their room,‘Alexis stop we don’t have time for this.’She tried to push him away but he pinned her against the door kissing her hungrily until she melted against him her fingers gripping his thick pale golden hair,‘I need to mark and claim you, my little mate.’He pressed her against his rock-hard body, she was so soft and malleable fitting perfectly against him he moved his head down kissing down her neck to the join with her shoulder. Aurora moaned softly when he nipped her neck and then sucked her skin hard, she cou
Her vision sharpened as did all her senses and instead of her beautiful dark green Jimmy Choo heels she had four rich, deep red furry paws, the shock made her collapse, her new legs giving way, and she let out a whine of protest.‘Take your time little mate, let your body get used to the shift. I take it this is your first time?’She looked up into the gentle blue eyes of a huge snow-white wolf,’What? How?’Her confusion was obvious as she tried to scramble back into a standing position and his Pack gasped at the mythical beautiful red wolf standing on trembling legs in front of them.Aurora swung her head from side to side,‘What am I? Who did this to me? I’m not, I can’t be.’She had to get away, the need to run was so strong she acted on it, with a howl of distress she bunched her muscles and leapt from the dais effortlessly sailing over the heads of the watching Pack. Landing gracefully on all four paws Venus took over lifting her head she scented the air and raced into the cover
‘Please.’She hissed and his eyes locked on to hers,‘Beg me little mate.’He ordered and her back arched with pleasure at his dominance,‘What the hell was wrong with her?’She thought wildly, she hated being dominated, hadn’t she vowed after killing her father that no male would ever control her again, yet she was craving this Alphas touch and begging him to fuck her!’‘Please Alexis, please.’She hissed when he used his hot breath on her again,‘What do you want little wolf? Use your words, I want to hear you ask me for it.’Aurora squirmed with embarrassment she had never felt like this before, she had no idea what was about to happen, she was a virgin and he knew it,‘I, I, don’t know what to do.’It was a whisper and it finally made him stop,‘What the fuck was he doing?’He looked up into frightened golden eyes,‘Jeez, she was a fucking virgin, until he had claimed her she had never even been kissed. What the fuck was he doing ravaging her on a mountainside?’With a huge effort
Morgana arrived just before midnight along with his exhausted Gamma, Gideon,‘Forgive us Alpha, we had to take a couple of detours to avoid the human scouts they are getting closer to our territory so I ordered the Patrollers to take them out.’The Gamma bowed his head submissively expecting the overprotective Alpha to explode in anger at their late arrival but Alexis was exhausted too, he had barely slept since she fell into the coma. He was rapidly losing hope that she would survive it and he knew if she died then he would also lose his life. Lycan's mated for life, when they found their fated mate it was forever, when fully claimed, marked and mated their bond was so strong they became one and if one died the other quickly followed. ‘May I Alpha?’Morgana approached the Luna’s bed quietly keeping herself small and submissive, Alexis looked up at her his eyes defeated as if he was already accepting his fate and the witch felt his pain,‘Please do whatever you can for her M
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
