lots of strange things happening. Don't forget to follow my social media and check out my other works, especially my current work in progress, The CEO's Bad Boy. Keep an eye out for my entry in the MM contest Love Chase: Hes Different, He's mine...it will be coming your way soon and I promise it will be something special and unique.
Kaiya I follow the pull to Malleus into his dream and the first thing I notice is the dark, parched earth of the wastelands below my feet. Everything is dark,dry, thirsty and hungry for something more than just food. This place is desolate and I have the sinking feeling it wants my dark mate to stay here. I see him standing in the open, staring at the mountains with their raging storm. Lighting flashes and thunder claps. I edge forward and slide my dainty hand into his huge paw.I sense Mal’s unease and say, “It’s okay, Mal. I’m here. Show me all your dreams and all the nightmares that plague you.”“Kaiya, I can’t. Not in one nap or even one night. It will take a long time,” Malleus replies in a voice as parched as the scorched earth beneath our feet.“No need to rush. Tell me about this one. What can you tell me?”“Nothing. This one is new.”“Then let’s face it together,” I reply, but I am torn away and uncertain he could feel or hear me. A withered witch glares at me and snarls, “
Kaiya “A dark queen, arises, fighting her sister for the heavens and sends her children into the world spreading chaos through the Lycans and sowing discord that lead their own goddess to curse and divide them, one third remained Lycan, one third let their bloodlust win and became vampires while the other third walk as humans but answer to the goddess with their spirits being twinned to a wolf,” Dylan continues with the story. I tune in more closely when it reaches the punishment after The moon goddess wins. “The goddess of the moon banishes her sister and strips her of her wolf, her Shade children and their Vampire partners assist her in keeping her magic alive, but only by the will of a child born from the Child of Taranus and the Child of Selene together can end her or raise her back to power. Thrice in history has she sought the Child of Taranus who has coupled with the Child of Selene and thrice has she failed,” Dylan continues, highlighting each attempt and to this I pay close
Ace I look my uncle in the eyes as I say, “If my father had had his way, Dylan would have been in no better position than you were. Neither would Kaiya.” “So, Liam is also my nephew? My sister’s son and our other mate’s?” He asks. “Yes, that is true. She and he tried staying in the pack, though she moved to a small cabin and they tried staying together, but my father forbade it…he sent her to be the chosen mate of a man who had rejected his same sexed mates. That man did unspeakable things to his son…to his stepson, who he did not realize was not his own,” I reply. “Though, I have learned that Liam was one of a pair. His mother snuck the other twin to his father, from what I understand. I am unclear on the details. I have been trying to uncover secrets and sometimes I am left with more questions.” I’m meeting with him while Dylan, and Kaiya give Malleus a tour of the packlands. “There are so many questions I have for all of you. I am glad my son has found his mates, but I fear yo
Kaiya “How was saying ‘Goodbye’?” I ask Malleus. “It was harder than I expected but easier than most people make it seem,” He replies. “It’s not like he can’t come visit or as if I don’t have you, Ace and Dylan.” “That’s true, but it’s your dad and the life you had with him and the rest of your friends and family,” I say, softly. “Other than my Dad and Step-father, there really wasn’t much of a life I mind leaving behind. I have a better life here and the three of you. I can play football and make myself useful in guarding the borders and restoring the glory of the pack,” Malleus replies. “Our pack is going to be the second largest before long, Rivaled only by The Lycan King’s own pack and I want to ensure its growth and safety.” “You didn’t have any friends in your old pack?” I ask. “If you can call them that. I hung out with a crowd I wouldn’t trust, or rather, I was the biggest, darkest, scariest guy, so other guys that wanted to seem dark and creepy or liked the bad boy rep
Kaiya “Let’s get you boys and your baby bumps loaded into the cars and go see Makya,” I say after breakfast, rubbing Ace’s slightly curved tummy. Today they are nearly three months along and getting ultrasounds done. We are going to have to announce their pregnancies to the pack soon, then people will understand why their Alphas are tired and getting fat and moody. They are kind of adorable when they pout at me. “Come on boys. Or do I have to carry you?” Malleus chuckles, finding humor in this situation and the looks on Dylan and Aces’s faces. Reluctantly, both Ace and Dylan stand up and tug at their loose fitting shirts, that are not designed as maternity clothes, but hide their growing bumps. “They are going to have to make men’s maternity clothes,” Dylan pouts. “It’s a good thing we hired someone to represent us on business dealings with humans, because this would confuse them a lot,” Ace groans. “You are only just starting to show. Your bellies will get bigger over the next
I have decided to break this story into parts…there are four connecting stories with an overarching story that threads them together. You have just read Chasing Their Unloved Luna Part 1: Finding The True Alpha.You are about to embark on Chasing Their Unloved Luna Part 2: Guarding The Faithful Beta.After that will be Chasing Their Unloved Luna Part 3: Seducing The Noble PriestessThis book will conclude with Chasing Their Unloved Luna Part 4: Hunting The Storm BringerThere will be a book or books highlighting the next generation of The Red Shadow Pack, but as for now this is what is planned for the continuation of this particular story. We have seen lots of twists and turns and tons of unexpected happenings, and there are lots of loose ends at the close of Part One so please stick with us as we continue our Journey.In Part 2, the focus shifts. We will see Kaiya and the boys in the background and may even get a surprise POV when something big happens involving them, but now we wi
Amina Hiding things from my best friend is bad enough, but when that best friend is also my Alpha…that can be disastrous. With all the pack reforms, a new baby and two more on the way, the last thing she and her three hunky mates needed was the knowledge of these threats I have been getting. In addition to pack reforms and improvements in housing and treatment for Omegas, I have been tasked with working alongside several other pack members, including our former Gamma and his mate to spread the idea of reforms in how other packs treat their Omegas and help them set up programs, schools and more, in hopes of enriching the lives of their pack members. I also find Omegas and other mistreated pack members and offer our pack as a sanctuary if their packs do not improve their conditions. This has not always been well received. The threats started a few months ago. It started with things that seemed to be nonsense. The first letter read, “top this utter nonsense, Omega Bitch. You will pay
Tobias After college and training, coming home to the pack and living with my parents is strange. I have been gone for the better part of six years, getting college degrees and special training. I know the pack gossip and all the stuff that has been going on and I can say I approve of the changes these new Alphas are imparting. I’m working out in the packhouse gymnasium and have quite the sweat worked up from practicing some of my moves on the punching bags and practice dummies when Alpha Dylan mindlinks me. ‘Tobias Randall, I need you to come meet me at the main gate. I have an assignment for you.’ ‘I’ll be right on it, Alpha, but can I shower first? I’ve been working out and am sweaty,’ I reply to my Alpha. ‘Fine. You’ll want to make a good first impression with your Beta and Alpha Kaiya, since you will be with them the most,’ Alpha Dylan links back. I wonder what this assignment might be. I vaguely remember seeing Kaiya and Amina in school growing up, but I never suspected the
Amina Miguel and Dierdre have been gone for a week and things here are getting tense as the host outside our borders seems to grow more and more. They have been joined by a few of the packs that don’t appreciate how we treat our Omegas well and make ourselves a safe haven for all oppressed werewolves. Draknar is keeping his people up to speed and they will arrive only once fighting has broken out. They agree with Kaiya that showing our hand too early would be unwise. In the meantime, Tobias is just over halfway through his pregnancy and Lena’s mates other than Miguel and the one he has gone to find are pregnant and two of our young warriors are amongst them. “How many of our warriors are pregnant again?” I ask Kaiya who knows all the details. “At least a dozen, at various stages and I will not let a pregnant wolf on the battlefield no matter how skilled, it is one thing to defend yourself if the fight comes to us, another to go out there,” Kaiya sighs and paces the floor in her off
Dierdre The Lord of The Hunt…He is the estranged prince of the Spring Kingdom. His elder brother is the future king. But the Lord of The Hunt is a wildcard. No one is ever quite sure what to expect. I awakened in an elegant room within his forest palace. At first, I think I am alone and then he speaks. “Priestess, have you thought about my proposal or is that man in my dungeon your mate?” “I have a fated mate, of that I am certain,” I reply. “And you choose to ignore our bond?” “I told you already that when I meet my fated mate, we will return if it is in agreement that we see if my mate also feels the bond,” I reply. “I have yet to meet my mate.” “What if I am all the Mate you are promised?” He asks. “I have seen a vision with a wolf and Lycan, you are neither of those,” I reply. “Dierdre, please! Please, tell me you feel it!” He pleads. “I…I feel it, but…you were not in my vision,” I admit at last. “And the Wolf-Lycan man in my dungeon?” “He is having me guide him to one o
Miguel The first two days we had to travel slowly as we passed through the dark region. The Bodkins entertained us both nights we were there and yesterday we crossed through what Dierdre called the Twilight Threshold into a very green and purple landscape that she informed me is The Spring Kingdom. We are going to a kingdom known as The Kingdom of Nod…Chimera Fae and dream sprites are the most prominent species after The High Elves that are present in nearly every realm. I have been learning about the realms and travel through this kingdom has been sped up by a bit of transportation magic. Dierdre explained that her Shadow Wolf Magic could allow her to travel through shadows and even bring me along, but that it is too unpredictable in this landscape. Tomorrow we will cross into The Summer Kingdom. The Kingdom of Nod is somewhere beyond the Kingdoms of The Four Seasons. This morning we saw our first Shrinking Violet. She was a pretty little Fae, but as she blushed a vibrant purple
Raiden The first few days without Miguel have been alright, but there is a restless energy that had Alpha Kaiya concerned enough to call the Lycan King for some support. Her half-brother, the Future Lycan King along with his mate, are set to arrive ahead of his father today. His father and some warriors will be arriving in the coming days, but they have a secret route. It is best not to alert the growing mass of Shades, Riders, and beasts that we have backup coming. Beta Amina (who I guess I can just call Amina since she is basically my sister in law) keeps us updated on everything so that we can remain safe and vigilant. I would feel better if I knew my twin and Miguel were safe, but there is no way for us to reach them where they are, or to know when they find one another. I know that the dream we had, or rather the vision, was of them, but we never reached them. “Today, I am taking all three of you shopping for maternity clothes,” Lena announces as she enters the living room,
Miguel The sorceress…priestess…Mage…whatever you want to call her, meets me in the foyer of the Packhouse on the morning of our departure. “I suppose we ought to get to know one another since I will be bringing you into the realm of the fae and my magic combined with your muscle will be our primary defenses against anything foul. I am Deirdre, the half sister of your Alphas, Ace and Dylan. I am a priestess and half mage with both werewolf and Lycan blood,” the young, dark haired woman states as she shakes my hand. “I am Miguel. I too am part Lycan and I chose to join my small pack to the pack of your brothers and their mates, giving up my title as Alpha to strengthen both of our packs. I am a skilled fighter, but hope we don’t come into too many perils with my mates all counting on me to return in one piece,” I reply. “I really wish you would take someone else along with you,” Alpha Dylan says to his younger sister. “That can not be done. Miguel will be fine as he is seeking one
Lena It’s the last full moon before Miguel goes into the realm of the fae to try to find our other mate, Raiden’s long lost twin. I will be here with all of our pregnant mates. I know my fighting skills aren’t as great as Rita’s or Raiden’s, but I will do everything in my power to keep them safe. With the full moon rising, I can feel the heat and rut cycle beginning to take over, so all other thoughts will be set aside. I work to get dinner ready for myself and my mates. Antony is by my side, preparing the salad and making us dessert. His sweet face is turning rosy and I can tell from his looks that he can smell my rising arousal. He won’t go into heat, but he will get horny with the rest of us. The bond will ensure that. Of the four mates I have currently, three are pregnant and deliciously glowing with their pregnancies. “We’ll have to hope you don’t also get pregnant,” Miguel says from behind me. “At least not until I have returned.” “If I do, I know our pack will do their
Tobias Being a newly awakened pregnant Lycan is strange at best. I am hungry or horny often and now it’s the full moon. So both of my mates will be giving off sexy feromones which makes me even more horny. Gah! I just realized that my younger sister is going through this very same thing at the moment, only she has more mates than I do! That is mortifying. I need to put the entire thought out of my head. It’s bad enough that I can’t train while pregnant so I am overthinking things. “Tobias, stop overthinking. Talk to me if you need to,” Amina says, looking up from the report she is reading. “Or, if it helps you to get out of your head, read over one of these reports for me and see what you can discern from it. Maybe a fresh set of eyes will help me gain a new perspective on this situation.”I stop pacing and sit on the sofa in her office with one of the reports. SHe has been over these a dozen times. It’s the reports flooding in from all over the country about The Riders and The Sh
Damien I don’t mind helping carry things and put them all in the correct rooms of the new house. I don’t even mind putting the furniture together with Miguel. But when we are all done and Miguel sits down to talk with me and voices his concerns, it feels…different. It’s like he really is embracing me as family, which I know we are since he is mated to my mates’ sisters, but I still often feel like an outsider. “While I’m gone, can you please keep an eye on them for me. I know you are training Lena, and Rita and Raiden can both fight, but with them pregnant, I just…Lena can’t protect three pregnant mates alone,” Miguel sighs. “After the full moon, I’m heading out to find Raiden’s twin and birth giving parent.” “We knew that, but I really hope it goes well and you come back soon. I will watch out for them and I will continue training Lena,” I reply. “Afterall, we are family and family takes care of one another.” I don’t know what else I can say. It’s not like I can assure him they
Sorry I disappeared, I have had some major family stuff happen, but will resume updates in the coming weeks. They may only be 2 or 3 per week for now, but I am aiming to work back up to daily updates. I didn't mean to leave everyone hanging and I have to catch up on where in the story I am so that I can continue from there. Hopefully, some of the stuff getting in the way of me writing will be handled more permanently soon.Thank you for your patience in the meantime.I believe I have less than 20 chapters left in part 2 (give or take depending on how long some scenes take to write) then we will be moving on to part 3. So far part 2 has gone in directions I didn't forsee when I first planned it, but I like where it has gone better than the original plan. I fully intend parts 3 and 4 to be packed with action and more surprises. And hope to finish the book by the end of June or July.
