The tension that had built vanished the moment Azura spoke, replaced by shock.
Everyone had frozen, Aunty Red’s cheeks burned, a rare sight actually, but Uncle El simply smirked.
A small giggle from Raven made me glance at her. Although her cheeks were flushed, she was finding this amusing.
"Yeah, it doesn’t work like that." Uncle El said pointedly to a very confused Azura.
"And you two need to be careful, there’s a kid in the damn house." Liam muttered.
"I’ll remind you of that when your time comes." Aunty Red shot back.
That made Liam tense and Raven’s heart skip a beat.
‘I mean it, I want you both to sort your shit out. This pack needs their leadership united.’ His voice came through the link.
I knew we both could hear him.
‘Understood.’ I said, making sure Liam could hear too.
I wanted to sort this shit out, I really fucking did. I glanced at Raven. She looked hot. There was something a

RAVEN "Kia!" I exclaimed, running over to her. She rushed forward and we both hugged each other tightly. "We weren’t expecting you." Liam said, lifting Dante up. "It’s a surprise." He said, as if this wasn’t obvious. I smiled, oh goddess that kid was cute. Al shook hands with Liam whilst giving Damon a curt nod. I had video called Al after his brother had passed away, but I didn’t go, knowing they needed time with both their own families. I didn’t want to go and make Liam stay away. I bent over looking at the two adorable dumplings that I just wanted to gobble up completely. They were soo cute! "Kia you make cute babies! Ah, they are even cuter than the last time I saw them." "Hun, I sent you a picture of them just two days ago." Kiara said, hugging Liam tightly. "Hmm nope, still cuter than ever." I whispered, caressing Skyla’s cheek. "Alpha Alejandro, Kia." Damon said. "Hey, Damon." Kiar

RAVEN I stepped into my bedroom with a small towel wrapped around me, towelling my hair with a second towel when I froze, seeing both Damon and Liam standing there. Arms crossed, both shirtless, their gazes fixed on me. My heart was racing as I stared at them. What the hell was going on? "What…" My words died on my lips when they both approached me. Liam pulled me close, sending sparks rushing through me. Those were only heightened when I felt the heat of Damon’s body behind me. His fingers grazed up my thigh, sending off rivets of pleasure. I gasped. What was happening? "Don’t think so hard beautiful, relax…" Liam murmured. Reaching down, he threaded his fingers into my hair, tugging my head up. With his other hand, he ripped my towel off, making my eyes fly open, but before I could even say anything, his lips met mine in a delicious kiss. I sighed softly against his lips, feeling Damon’s hands cup my breasts. My cheeks heated
Caged Between The Beta & Alpha 20. A Late Night Visit
RAVEN Night had fallen and I had returned home to the packhouse an hour ago. I had decided to get my stuff unpacked. I was opening my parcels, admiring my new bedding and curtains, when I paused, remembering part of the conversation that I had with Al and Kia as it replayed in my mind. My stomach twisted and I dropped onto my bed, sighing heavily. I'm so scared of this talk that I knew we needed to have, but it needed to be done. I picked up one of my parcels before sighing and tossing it on the bed again. Rejection… Al was so adamant that it would need to happen. Why did Selena pair us together if all she wanted was to hurt us and tear us apart? I sighed, standing up and grabbing a plastic tub from the bedside table. I think I needed to talk to Damon about this, and I won’t lie, I needed to see Aunty M. I walked downstairs, the warm bustle of the other young adults around the packhouse was pleasant. I snuck out and headed towa

RAVENI reached over and took his hand. I don’t care what anyone thought, I didn’t feel guilty about Liam right now either, this was one friend to another. I needed to know, before we had this sit down, I wanted to know what was inside Damon’s head, because I knew he wouldn’t be able to be completely honest in front of Liam.Damon stared down at our hands, before turning towards me and placing his mug down.He blew out a breath before nodding."I messed up. Unlike Liam, who stayed true to you, I didn’t… I feel fucking guilty for that, and it’s no excuse…""But?" I asked softly, sensing his turmoil.He was struggling to say what was deep in his heart.‘Speak to me however you find easier.’ I mind linked.He looked into my eyes before looking down at his hands.‘That night of the blood moon… I was scared I would lose my best friend, someone I consid

LIAM I turned, leaving her standing there looking fucking devastated. The anger that was burning through me was out of my control. No matter how much I tried to calm the storm within me, I couldn’t. I needed to get away from here before I did any damage. I rushed down the stairs. The anger of my wolf was out of my hands now. My claws and teeth were already out and I was just trying to make it to the fucking door. My feet hit the bottom step just as one of the Omega’s stepped out, "A-alpha your…" I snapped my gaze towards her, my heart thumping dangerous. Her eyes widened, dropping the Tupperware box she had been holding out to me and backing away slowly before scampering away. Smart move. Ripping the door open and almost off the hinges, I rushed out, shifting and running into the woods. Needing a fucking break from everything. Deep down, I knew the jealousy and anger that was festering inside of me was only grow

RAVEN The moment he stormed out, I took a deep breath; my heart was fucking hurting. The Liam that I knew was so far gone, that fucking hurt too. I walked over to the door, locking it before picking up Damon’s torn shirt. I dropped to my knees, letting out a shuddering breath. Why were things so shit? When one wanted to make it work, the other wanted to destroy it. But even then, I knew Liam was hurting. Yes, I couldn’t excuse his behaviour, but he was just the type of person who loved deeply. I understood that. Where Damon was able to cope and even moved on with Robyn, Liam hadn’t been able to, letting his emotions and pain eat him up inside. I couldn’t blame him for his stance. Liam… I placed my head in my hands. What do I do? And what was with the colour of his eyes? That anger and darkness… Closing my eyes, I inhaled deeply, still clinging to that torn shirt. Damon’s scent was soothing, but even then, I couldn’t get
Caged Between The Beta & Alpha 24. Among Us
LIAM Everything else was gone from my mind, I didn’t know how many hours had passed since I had begun to read the book. Some of it was far too worn to read, yet it was preserved well even then. Some of it was what we already knew; how the Deimos was one of the first four werewolf lines, alongside the Asheton and Solaris, and the new piece of knowledge was the name of the fourth line - The Volkov. This was the line that the very first Lycan was born into, but unlike the other three who were like royalty, the Lycan was shunned and ousted from the inner circle of the other three lines, as it was feared by the werewolves. It is interesting, considering it was the Lycans who were destined to be the kings who would rule over us, whenever born. The story was otherwise the same as what the witch Janaina had once told Kiara and Alejandro, with perhaps a few minor additional details. This book was mostly about the Deimos line: How our line had moved away first

RAVENI had told Zack the plan and filled Damon in yesterday. We were going to do this at 11 pm tonight. However, I was feeling extremely confused. There were so many things that were eating me up inside, from the pain I felt in my chest when I remembered Damon’s pictures, to the way Liam had treated me.When I had gone to bid Kia farewell, the way Aunty Red had remarked that I had just missed Liam was almost as if she suspected something was up. Yet I just remained smooth and blew it off.I was adjusting my dark pink ribbed top when there was a knock on the door.Who was that?I walked over to it, pulling it open. My smile vanished the moment I saw Liam standing there. Like always, he looked like a Greek god; in grey pants and a black and white graphic tee that stuck to his body like it was painted on, along with black boots. Why did he look so damn good? He had his hands in his pockets. His intense cerulean eyes trailed over me slowly, I su

Bonus Chapter – Babysitting Our Pups LIAM "Damon, watch it!" I growled as he kicked the thermos over. Yes, it was closed, but it fell, making a loud sound that made Theo, who had just fallen asleep, wake up with a start. "Fuck guys, can you two not even mind six pups?" Zack asked, raising an eyebrow as he stepped into Damon’s lounge from the kitchen area eating a fucking sandwich. "Make yourself useful and feed Carter." He raised an eyebrow. "I don’t know how." Damon, who was currently rocking Artemis and Ares, raised an eyebrow. "Seriously, Zack?" Zack simply smirked, dropping onto the sofa. "I'm only here because Tay said to help you two, but I have no clue about kids." He switched the TV on, only for the volume to disturb the two pups who were sleeping on the sofa. Jayce became completely fresh as he stared around him. Our mates had gone for a spa day out and here we were with these six, plus

Bonus Chapter – Home & Family ROBYN The Westwood quintuplets were born eleven days before our little princess. Artemis Luna Nicholson. She was beautiful, with grey-blue eyes, black hair and lashes that curled up perfectly. My beautiful little baby girl. She was a good baby who slept well, I often had to wake her up to feed her myself. Damon was the perfect partner to have. He willingly took care of her and me, it never felt like he didn’t want to do it or let on that he was tired. Even after a long day of work, he didn’t let it affect his care for me or our baby. Being a new Alpha, there were many on the council who didn’t like it. He was the second non-alpha born to take the title of ‘Alpha’ and it was something he had to prove that he was good at. I know the king didn’t like him due to his involvement with Kiara, however at the council he was fair and just, not letting any of his personal opinions blind his judgement of seeing Damon’s capabiliti

Kiara encouraged, holding her hand, her purple aura swirling around her as Raven breathed steadily, pain contorting her face as she pushed. "And again! Almost here, babe, you’re doing amazingly." My own heart was racing and seeing her in this much agony was tearing me to shreds inside. She was going to have to do this five times? Fuck this wasn’t fair. "I'm ok." Raven whispered to me; her face scrunched in pain before she pushed once more. I caressed her clammy forehead, my other hand holding hers tightly. Her nails dug into my skin, drawing blood, but I wished I could take away the pain she was in. "Almost there, Luna." One of the midwives added. We were in Kiara’s pack, having spent the last ten days here. Raven let out a scream as she pushed with all her might, and the sound of a cry filled the room. I kissed her forehead as her

Bonus Chapter – The Struggle FOUR MONTHS LATER… RAVEN Pregnancy was hard. I felt exhausted, I could barely walk, sit up, or anything. My back ached continuously and I was actually going to be leaving for Kia’s pack in a week or two as I was nearing the end of my pregnancy and everyone agreed I needed her by my side. For her to come here was a lot harder, so Liam and I would go there whilst Uncle El and Aunty Red would run the pack in our absence. News had spread that the Blood Moon Pack’s Luna was going to have quintuplets, and I knew it was more of a spectacle than anything else. I refused to go to events, I didn’t want to see anyone. Goddess! I'm not something to stare at! I looked over at Robyn, with her normal-sized bump, she was due around the same time as me. She was further along than I was, but due to mine being a multiple pregnancy, I was probably going to have them first. "You ok, babe?" She asked me. I nodded

Bonus Chapter – Breaking The News LIAM Two hours had passed, and I was still stunned… I vaguely heard Damon tell the doctor to not pass the news onto anyone, that Raven and I would do that ourselves. I can’t believe I fucking fainted… but it still can’t be real right? Five pups? Goddess. "Are you ok?" Raven asked me, cupping my face as I sat on the hospital bed. The sparks from her touch rippling through me. I closed my eyes, pulling her between my legs and resting my head against her breasts for a moment. "Yeah… Fuck, I mean, I should be asking you that." I looked up at her concerned, my eyes skipping over her tiny frame; how the fuck was that even going to work? I ran my hands down her waist, despite the shock there was a spark of excitement inside of me. Raven and I were actually having a pup together, scratch that – PUPS. I looked up into her gorgeous eyes, raking my fingers through her hair. "How the hell a

It was just Anna who couldn’t stomach it. Yet, she was strictly not allowed on Blue Moon territory. When she found out about Channing’s new position, she wanted him back. Disgusting. I hoped I didn’t have many run-ins with her, I was better off without it. She had cheated on Channing when he was an amazing, selfless man. I will always love Aaron, and just the thought of him made my heart ache, but I was able to love Channing too. Perhaps it would never reach the level of love I had for Aaron, but it was enough. "Want to visit his grave tomorrow?" He asked, pulling me onto the sofa next to him. He was always so understanding. Despite both his legs being destroyed in the battle of Hecate’s Betrayal years ago, he had not let it get to him. This man was strong, bra

Bonus Chapter – A Nicholson’s Family Dinner DAMON It had been six months since Kiara and Alejandro’s wedding, and whilst the king and queen had gone off on a four-week honeymoon, their children had resided at the Black Storm Pack. I heard from Liam that Rayhan had gotten stressed out with Dante just as much as Liam had with Azura when Uncle El and Aunty Red had gone on their trip. Luckily for me, I got to spend time with my beautiful mate without any kids around, but I was still secretly praying Liam had a kid soon. I did love kids. They are damn cute, and when Robyn was ready, I didn’t mind having one myself. My mate, one who was so damn hardworking and organised. Speaking of… She stepped out of the bathroom with a cloud of steam, wearing maroon lingerie and a black satin cap on her head. "Don’t look at me like that, I just showered." She replied, despite her heart racing. I tilted my head, winking at her. "You need to keep yo

Raven had gone early that morning to Kiara’s pack as they had some shopping to do for the wedding. I don’t get how women’s shopping never finishes, but if they’re happy shopping, what more could I ask for? Anyway, since Raven was gone, so I was stuck minding my adorable little sister. The only problem was that she’s a four-year-old pup who has asked way too many questions and still picks her boogers, although she told me a few weeks ago she doesn’t… Lie. She had been fairly good to be fair, although she gets a bit emotional every time she gets off a video call with Mom. "So Wiyam, what we do now?" She asked, rubbing her nose. I raised my eyebrows, it was past five in the afternoon. "Well, I'm thinking, how about we make a nice meal for when Raven gets back? It will be a nice surprise
