Curse Of The Reborn Luna. Chapter 64
Though the car was one of the fastest in the garage among the collection Ezra kept, moving almost at the speed of light, it was silent on the tarred road barely making a sound. The only sound was coming from the inside of the jeep and it was coming from the dashboard because Ginny had chosen to play some old romance music. The atmosphere created by the music was so much at odds with the atmosphere at the moment. The men wanted to go to war for the Luna of their newly merging pack, they weren’t interested in listening to Lionel Richie sing “Stuck on You” or Dionne Warwick singing “Whisper in the Dark.” If there was war music, probably an old dragon theme from a medieval movie played over men riding on horses into battle, that would have been a better fitting song at the moment.But they let her listen to her songs because she was young and foolish and romantic.Ginny didn’t care.She sat in front with Noah, knowing that if Asher wasn’t in the car with them he would have tied her up wit

“They are waiting, Lance.”Maggie watched him. He sat at the edge of the bed with his head in his hands. His breath was heavy in his palms and Maggie could see that every second he spend alone he got angrier. She wished she could reach out to touch him and tell him not to believe Vivian. But she was angry just watching him. How could he believe Vivian just like that? After all they had been through?!She was seething with rage but so was Lance and he stood from the bed and threw his jacket hard across the room.“Fuck!”Axel knocked again. “Lance, are you alright in there? They are waiting for you. Ezra is ready to leave for the chapel.”Lance clenched his fists. He slapped the palm of one hand against his fist and his nostrils flared as he fought to control himself. He went back to the bed.“Lance?”When he stood up he was surprisingly calm and he went to open the door. Axel’s face held a frown that showed his concern. He watched his older brother’s face but Lance’s face was very calm

“Why is she here?” Ezra demanded, his face was pale as he watched Maggie stumble upon them.Maggie watched that naïve version of herself come to the realization that it had been a trick. She watched as her trusting eyes clouded with regret and the bitter tears of betrayal a moment before Reggie grabbed her from behind and pulled her hands behind her.At first, she couldn’t even react to the pain, the only thing she could say was, “Why?”Her innocent brown eyes searched for Lance and she couldn’t hold her tears at the stony look on his face.“Lance,” she wailed.“Kill them,” came Ezekiel’s cold command.Maggie watched the scene and for the first time, she saw it unfold differently. In her memories, Lance had been so cold that he rushed at her and tore her heart out of her chest with no regrets or heed for her tears at all. But now that she watched it as an outsider, she saw how his hand shook. The ancient dagger he held in his hand wobbled as fear overcame him.“I – I – I can’t do it,”

Maggie’s back hit the tree. Her breath escaped her lungs, emptying them. She barely had time to refill her lungs with air when Phoenix came to stand in front of her.Evgan and Percy had recovered their breath and rose to their feet, they started to transform to attack the goddess. She turned to them with a look of pure disdain.“Have you learned nothing at all from the memories of your ancestors?” she asked them and with a flick of her finger sent them flying against another tree. This time she did not just stop there, she pinned them to the trees and took their voices, that way they could not cry out. Olivia and Jackson who remained on the floor were pinned there.Maggie opened her eyes. She was panting heavily. The pain in her chest, a result of her sudden contact with the tree, spread throughout the rest of her body.“You – you knew I was here?” Maggie whispered through the pain in her chest.“Nothing happens without my knowledge, mortal. You think I haven’t sensed you watching me
Curse Of The Reborn Luna. Chapter 68
Noah rolled away just in time as an enemy wolf leaped from the tree with protracted claws aiming for his throat. If he hadn’t defended himself fast enough he would have been a dead man with a ripped throat on the forest floor. His senses were on high alert but he could only sense one familiar wolf among the enemies and that was the one fighting him.Asher, Lance, and Jayden on the other hand were struggling with their opponents. Lance was struggling with two wolves and he was pinned between the both of them.Noah turned his attention to the wolf rebounding to attack him, he reverted back into human form as he raised his hands in an X shape and parted his legs so that he was standing firm on the ground and as soon as the wolf attacked him again he gripped its neck and hefted it over his shoulder and brought it to the ground with all his strength.The wolf, now sweaty struggled against Noah’s hold on it and a laugh escaped him.“You haven’t lost your edge, Noah.”Noah recognized that vo

As soon as the goddess left, the weight of her powers disappeared and Percy and the others dropped with a heavy thud on the forest ground. They immediately ran to her to make sure she was okay but none of them could touch her. Maggie opened her eyes and realized there was awe in their gazes.She groaned and raised her hand to her head where the goddess had kicked her. Even though she was mad at herself for being weak and at the goddess for being so merciless, she was in awe of the woman whose combat skills were nothing like she had ever seen. The goddess was more than that, she was a woman with experience in battle and Maggie could tell because of her quick strategy while they fought and the weight of her leg when it made an impact on her head.“What was that you just did?” Eldan asked in awe.“I got my ass handed to me on a platter of mud,” she bit out angrily. Her head had stopped bleeding as soon as she reverted to her human form and when she looked around she discovered the forest

Maggie shook off the vertigo of teletransportation and her eyes immediately widened. She was back in the mansion but the sight before her eyes was definitely not what she had been expecting. Ezekiel was not just gathering an army to attack her, he had sent some of them to destroy the mansion and everyone in it. The men in black had forced their way through the gate and were just getting out of the cars with guns cocked and ready to go by their sides.Maggie stood motionless at the center watching them. They hadn’t noticed her yet.A window opened upstairs and Cathy looked down and immediately saw her. She looked terrified.“Maggie, they are here for you. Run!”But the men weren’t there for only her, they were there for all of them. There were 6 of them in all. Ezekiel wasn’t waiting anymore to claim what was hers. And he was smart about it too. The sun was just cracking through the clouds and as soon as the day was clear humans would come out which meant they couldn’t fight in wolf fo

Both men were whispering her name over and over like a prayer, trying to convince themselves that she was really there as they hugged her so close that she couldn’t take a breath. But she was happy to see them. Even after the reservations she had against Lance while going back in history, she was glad to see that he was alive but both men were injured even though most of their injuries were healed. She could tell by the heavy smell of blood and her sensitive ears picked out the meshing of tissues and flesh as they healed.“Where have you boys been?” She asked, still crushed between their powerful arms.“We were just about to break the walls of Ezekiel’s hideout and fight for you.”They didn’t want to let her go and Maggie was beginning to feel self-conscious because Chase and shifted back to human form and was laughing at them, Noah and Jayden were staring with hidden smiles and Cathy wore a huge frown.Noah shifted from one foot to another still barely holding his laughter in. “I thi

“You are lucky Anthony was right, you know?” Maggie looked up from her wine glass with a smile. Cathy was holding a wine glass of her own. They were celebrating life after the goddess’ curse. Luckily, Ezekiel’s army hadn’t done much damage to their house and what had been destroyed was rebuilt, partially with Ginny’s help. “I know that. If that blood offering hadn’t worked we’ll not be enjoying this nice bottle of wine right now.” Maggie raised her brow at the woman. “Do you still think challenging the goddess to a fight was a stupid idea?” Cathy’s lips stretched into a reluctant smile. “Well maybe you’re not as foolish as I thought, Dark Storm.” “You are a Dark Storm too.” “Yeah yeah.” Cathy raised her glass as she turned and left. She had to go to be club. Business was booming faster than she could manage. As she started to leave she looked back at Maggie. “Thank you, Maggie.” As soon as she left Asher came in carrying another bottle of wine and he raised his brow. “Did Cathy j

Everything went still. Phoenix hovered in the air, a stricken look on her face as she looked around as if searching for something to fall as if the sky would come falling on her head at any second.Maggie waited.Asher waited.Lance waited.Ezekiel waited.Then Phoenix started to laugh. A peal of nervous laughter spurted out of her. She looked even crazier than before as she opened her mouth unnaturally wide to laugh at Maggie’s foolishness.“It failed!” She laughed. “Nothing happened.”She spun in the air laughing as she tossed her hair about. “Oh, mortal. Foolish, foolish mortal! You have failed. You have brought an end to your kind!”Without warning she snatched the sword from a dazed Maggie’s hands. It was coated with her blood.“Oh, look,” Phoenix taunted her. “I win!” she chuckled.Maggie didn’t know what to do. She lost. She lost and now…She looked back at Asher and Lance. Would they start disintegrating or would the goddess kill them after she was dead?“I’m sorry,” she sighe

Maggie put her feet on the gold armor, feeling the cold metal beneath her feet and grunting, she kicked the goddess off her, put her hands behind her head, and pushed herself off the ground. In a flash, she transformed into her wolf.Vapor escaped her nostrils. She looked down at her paws noting that the proximity of Asher and Lance reduced the bleeding to a nonexistent point. She sighed gratefully and glared at the goddess who was on her feet smiling at Maggie.“You sure took your time showing up,” Maggie told her.“I wanted to see what your pathetic uncle would do. Shall I leave him or shall I kill him?”“He’s mine for me to kill.”“Are you sure?” Phoenix asked with a lopsided grin.“He is mine to kill!”“Hmm, then I should let the men fight to keep them busy. That way Asher and Lance will have their hands full to protect you.” With a snap of her fingers, she summoned 3 more wolves and sent them at the men. “Ezekiel Dark Storm, take these wolves, they are yours. That makes things eq

It was a gloomy day. At least for the newly formed Dark Storm members. Even though the sky was bright and sunny, the occupants of the car moving Eastward were silent and dull.Maggie tightened her hand on the wheel. Asher had opted to drive but Maggie wanted to be behind the wheel. Staying still and doing nothing would make her go crazy and she didn’t want to think about what the outcome of the day would be like. It was time to face the goddess, time to decide the fate of her kind. Did she have what it took?Her hands were shaking on the wheel. So much training but it would all be for nothing if she couldn’t win.She had more than the fight with the goddess to worry about. She also worried about the others remaining in the mansion. So far they hadn’t heard anything about Ezekiel. Since his last attack, he had not attempted attacking again. But she knew trouble with him wasn’t over yet. He wouldn’t rest until she was dead. A second time.For that reason she had Greg and his team stay b

“What do you know about my mother…”They were in the study. Asher, Lance, and Noah stood behind Maggie ready to battle if their visitors pulled any silly games.None of the External Threat unit members sat. Maggie didn’t offer them seats either. They weren’t friends nor foes and depending on their actions, she would decide whether or not she could accept them as part of her new family.For now, however…“I know that your father was in love with her,” Greg answered.Maggie waited but when he didn’t continue she held out her hand. “But?”“But your mother…she used to love your father until his brother, Ezekiel, came along and swept her off her feet.”Maggie couldn’t believe it. She didn’t know her mother but she always dreamed of her as the perfect mother who would have been there for her if death hadn’t snatched her so far out of her reach. She liked to imagine that her parents were so in love that her father was devastated after her mother’s death. She imagined he was so devastated and

Lance was standing outside the balcony where the sun was high and bright. The golden rays glistened off his dark hair and on his face. He squinted his eyes as he gazed off into the woods surrounding the Dark Storm property and could clearly see Jennifer’s red head bobbing as she encouraged Maggie to continue to work with her breath.Maggie was scantily dressed in a pair of shorts and a thin shirt. Even though the sun was out the weather was a bit drafty but Jennifer, whom Maggie had invited earlier that morning before the doctor came, wanted Maggie to practice in harsh conditions.According to her, the goddess was crafty, and who knew what kind of tricks she would play. Maggie had to be prepared for anything.So with goosebumps on her flesh, she practiced holding her breath to build her endurance while fighting the various enemies Jennifer created with her powers. After all, she had only three days left to train before facing her opponent, an ageless goddess with a penchant for murder

It was precisely 12 when he arrived and Ginny was the first to see him.“What the hell…?! It’s you!”His smile was cocky as he wagged his brows upward. “Cathy’s waiting?”“Waiting and ready to shred your ass most likely. Why are you here?” The teen asked defensively crossing her arms in front of her chest as she eyed him derisively.“To see Cathy. Give us some privacy will you?”Ginny exchanged a glance with Darren. “Cathy’s gonna be mad.”“Do you know him?” Darren asked.“Let’s just say yes and leave it at that.” She turned to the man and tilted her chin upward toward the office. “She’s in there. She’s in a mood and seeing you is not going to make her calm. Knowing you’re the one offering to buy the club, she’ll probably bare her teeth at you again.”“I don’t mind Cathy’s teeth.”Ginny couldn’t hold her laugh. She slapped her hand over her mouth. “I hear you, sir, up you go. Try not to get eaten.”Theodore left Ginny and Darren to continue with their jobs and he made his way up the s
Curse Of The Reborn Luna. Chapter 75
Maggie stood back while Anthony examined Caleb. She had sent Asher back to take care of other things so that she could help Anthony if he needed any help. Carl was in the room with her watching Anthony through narrowed eyes. He didn’t trust anyone but he trusted the vampire doctor even less.Anthony took one look at Caleb’s weak form. “How has he managed to stay alive?”He was pale as death, his skin held a very translucent look. His shirt had been taken off to reveal his emaciated body, his ribs very clear through his pale skin. The gap in his neck and side had crusted over and were showing no further signs of healing. Through the gap in his neck, Caleb’s pulse beat an unsteady rhythm. His lung rose and fell, visible from the side where he was stabbed. His bronze wolf heart beat unsteadily.“Steph and I did the best we could.”“I’m amazed,” Anthony said genuinely impressed. “But I am afraid that cannot keep him alive.”“You think I don’t know that?” Carl said annoyed. “We couldn’t ge
Curse Of The Reborn Luna. Chapter 74
The doctor came two days later. Tall and pale as always. He wore a polite smile like Asher remembered from the last time.Asher still couldn’t shake his distrust for the man. He was a vampire! Why would Ezra Dark Storm employ a vampire in his service? He couldn’t help but wonder.“Miss Dark Storm sent for me,” Anthony said in his lilting accent, his golden eyes bright as ever. It was a cloudy day, perfect weather for bloodsuckers.“Yes, she did.”He stepped inside the mansion and took off his coat. “I am glad she is doing a lot better. I told you not to worry,” his gaze was direct. “Asher.”“You know my name.”“Your name and that of the others have been included in Miss Dark Storm’s health insurance. Her father did the same thing for every member of his pack while he was still alive. She’s filling his shoes nicely.”Asher didn’t know what to say when the man was being openly friendly. Too friendly.Anthony grinned and held his hand out. “I am harmless.”His hand was icy cold in Asher’
