#Chapter83*SEXUAL CONTENT THROUGHOUT THIS Chapter I woke up and gripped the bedsheets. I closed my eyes and took a deep breath, I have never had a sex dream before. That was intense... I could feel the wetness down there and the ache that always happens when I'm near Rhydian."Good dream, huh?" Rhydian chuckled. I squealed and pulled the blanket over my head. He chuckled again and pulled the blanket from my face, "Don't hide from me. I wanna know what you were dreaming about." He added huskily. I glared at him and shook my head. "It must have been good..." He inhaled deeply before looking at me again, "You smell divine." He breathed.I pressed my thighs together and groaned. "So, was it something happening to you or was it you doing something?" He pressed, his eyes flickering between blue and red. I stared at his eyes, "Do your eyes no longer go black when your wolf is present?" I asked. "Nice divert but it isn't going to work." He set his hand on my chest and I was suddenly all
#Chapter84After our fun, fulfilling morning, we took a shower together, groping each other some more. We sat and ate breakfast that Rhydian insisted on cooking, a full English breakfast. It was definitely welcomed, I was starving. Rhydian has popped back to the packhouse to get a change of clothes so we can get a start on this bedroom for Cory.I'm in the living room waiting for him to come back with my phone in my hand, staring at the pack hospital number. I want to make an appointment to find out if I can have pups but I'm nervous. I don't want to be told the reason Rhydian won't have an heir is because of me.I sighed and pressed call on the number. I held my breath waiting for someone to pick it up on the other end. "Hello, Nurse Thorne speaking." Aunt Georgie greeted. I cursed silently that it had to be her that answered. "Hey, Aunt Georgie." I greeted. There was a quick pause on the other end before she finally responded. "Oh, Amaris! How are you? Is everything ok?" I could p
#Chapter85"Shall we go?" Rhydian whispered. I nodded and sighed. I knew deep down I wouldn't be able to have pups. I just thought maybe something might go right for me for once. Rhydian stood up and held his hand out for me, I took it as he helped me up.I took a deep breath then glanced at him, "Do you- Are you?" I stammered. "I love you." He exclaimed, staring at me. I smiled at him and nodded. Although he said nothing would change, I needed the reassurance. "Let's go home... You can relax and I'll sort out Cory's room." He muttered as we left the office. "We need to know what colour he would want." He mused as we walked through the corridors, I hummed in response. "Oh, wait! I can mindlink him!" I blurted. He glanced at me and raised a brow. "I mind linked him when Alex and I were in the forest with him," I explained. He nodded and smiled. "Hey, Cory," I muttered into the link. I didn't know if he would remember he could link me and I didn't want to scare the poor pup. "Amari
#Chapter86"Are you ready to see your room?" I excitedly asked Cory. I couldn't contain my excitement, the pack has done an amazing job with his bedroom. I just hope he likes it! He nodded his head eagerly. Rhydian pushed open the door and Cory stepped in. His eyes went wide as he looked around his new room. The wall opposite was painted navy blue and Rhydian, who I didn't know could draw, had drawn a large cloud on the left side with hand-drawn stars dotted around, there was a smaller cloud drawn on the right side. In the centre of the wall, there was a huge full moon, shining bright. I was in complete awe as I gazed at the wall. His bed was in the middle of the wall with a black bed cover with tiny stars all over it, his pillow was black with a full moon in the middle. He had two bedside tables on either side of his bed with a moon lamp on the ride side and a photo frame containing a family photo of Cory and his parents. There was a black wardrobe with little moon handles on the
#Chapter87"Amaris, are you nearly ready? The ceremony will be starting soon." Ria groaned from my bedroom. It's been 2 weeks since we brought Cory to live with us, we've settled into a nice routine. Rhydian has been busy with his Alpha duties, Cory is excelling at school and settling in well with us while I've been dealing with this damn Luna ceremony. After living in the human world for so long, this ceremony is exactly like a wedding - minus the rings of course! And I made sure I told Rhydian the same thing. I'd be happy doing it in our kitchen over the sink, then I'm back in the pack fully by the blood bond to the Alpha and I'll be their Luna. But, no I'm not allowed to do that.I have to wear an over the top white dress, I'm not thrilled at all with it. It's uncomfy and shows far too much cleavage than I want it to. Just wait until Rhydian sees you in it... Ria has made a point of telling me that every time I complained about it. Lucas and Ria have told me to suck it up and deal
#Chapter88"Woah, chill. It's me." Alex chuckled. I shoved him and glared. "Where the fuck have you been?" I snarled, "I thought you weren't going to come." I grunted. He chuckled and shook his head, "Mari, I wouldn't have missed this." He grinned. "It was a secret." He added with a wink. I rolled my eyes. "Yeah, yeah... Jokes on me." I chuckled. His eyes wandered up and down my body, "Wow, you look stunning." He praised. I smiled and nodded a thank you.A throat clearing behind me made me turn around. A few Elders were stood in front of Rhydian, Elder Rick smiled at me to signal they were ready. Ria had already gone and stood next to Lucas, taking her position in the pack. She is now the Gamma, the protector of the Luna."Well, come on. Let's get you Luna'd." He grinned. I raised my brow at him and he snickered. I linked my arm through his arm and he smirked at me. "Would you prefer if I said... Let's get you wed." His lips curled up into an amused smile. I groaned and rolled my ey
#Chapter89Watching all the pack members dancing and interacting with the neighbouring packs is a feeling I won't forget in a long time. After our blood was bonded and I was let back into the pack link, the feelings that spread throughout from the pack were remarkable. I finally feel content and happy."Are you having fun, Luna Amaris?" Cory's little voice brought me out of my daydream. I chuckled, picking him up and sat him on my knee, "It's just Amaris, Cory." I chirped. "I am having fun, are you?" I asked, he nodded his head. "I really like Ezra and Alex, they're funny." He chuckled, looking away from me. I followed his eye line, Ezra and Alex were sat at an opposite table looking like they were having a very heated conversation. "Yeah, they are." I giggled."Are you tired? Do you want to leave?" I asked as he yawned. He shook his head, "No, it's your party. I'm ok." He replied with a yawn. I chuckled and shook my head. "Oh no, you're my priority." I clarified, standing up with h
#Chapter90I yawned and opened my eyes slowly. I stretched then immediately groaned. Ugh, I feel sore everywhere. Rhydian decided he was feeling adventurous after we made love for the second time. I didn't realise my body could twist into strange positions.I turned over and sighed as I looked at my peacefully sleeping husband - still not going to get used to that. I bet he's not aching everywhere.'Can always rectify that.' Aurora chirped.'I miss you.' I whined. When my wolf comes forward for any reason, it's like Aurora disappears. I know we become one but I wish that didn't happen because she's barely around anymore.'I'm always here, Amaris. We are one of the same. I'm happy we are at full potential. You don't need me around all the time anymore. You're not alone, you have Rhydian and Cory. You're happy, therefore I am happy.' She professed. 'As for the rectify the situation... Kick him out of bed.' She growled playfully.No, I wouldn't do that. Oh, who am I kidding? Of cour
#Chapter303WHEREVER YOU GO, I GO“So, we’re going to live in the palace forever?” Callie asked.Brody glanced at me with his brow raised. We haven’t discussed what’s going to happen. I still want to be part of the royal guard, but now I have someone else to think about.What does Brody want to do with his life? Would he be happy staying in the palace? There are all these little things we’re going to have to deal with.Until the threat to my life, well all our lives are dealt with, the best place for us is the palace. But after that, I need to think about Brody and Callie, not just myself.“I don’t know about the future, but yes, for now, we’re staying at the palace.” I answered. “Is that okay with you both?”“I like the palace. I like my bedroom. I like your family. I want to stay.” Callie answered.I smiled at her and nodded. “I’m glad you like it here.”I glanced to Brody, he seemed deep in thought. He smiled sweetly at me and took hold of my hand and Callie’s.“Wherev
#Chapter302LITTLE DETAILSI have no idea how I’m feeling right now, there are so many thoughts running through my mind.I’m confused why I’ve got a mate and a beloved. I know we have a family history of having two... Nanna Ayla had two mates, but they think that was because of the prophecy, and Grandad Leon was always supposed to be her true mate, but never in my wildest dreams would I have expected me to have a mate and a beloved.I’m happy, elated, absolutely over the moon at the fact Brody is my beloved. He’s everything I wanted in a beloved. He’s thoughtful, caring, and a decent being. I’m certainly lucky to have been blessed to spend my life with him.But I’m also worried. No, I’m absolutely petrified. When Luca finds out I’m also destined for someone else, I don’t even want to think about what he’d do. He’s going to be angry and jealous, and that’s a dangerous combination. Jealousy can make even the nicest people do wrong things. Luca is deranged and definitely wo
#Chapter301HIS SCENT“So, you and Brody?” Olivia smirked as she placed some pieces of fruit in five bowls.“I know that face, Liv. There is nothing going on.” I groaned, “we’re just friends.”“Friends definitely don’t look at each other the way you two do.” She snickered.Olivia placed the knife onto the kitchen island and looked at me with a serious expression. She leaned against the kitchen island, resting her chin on the palm of her hand.“In all seriousness, how are you doing now you’re back?” She asked.I took a deep breath, then smiled at Olivia.“I’m glad to be back.” I sighed, “really glad to be back”.”“We’re glad to have you back,” she smiled sweetly. “Are you going with Brody when he gets his scent back?”I nodded and pushed away from the kitchen island. “He’s nervous about it, so I want to be there for him.”"You just want to know what he smells like." Allie quipped.She’s not wrong. I am intrigued to know what his scent is like. When I
#Chapter300WISHFUL THINKINGI halted in the doorway and frowned. My eyes darted around my dad’s office. My dad was sitting behind his desk with his arms crossed over his chest, with Mum perched on a chair beside him holding his arm. Coby and Ryder were standing by Uncle Elias and Uncle Levi in deep conversation. Grandad Leon and Nanna Ayla were behind Mum and each had their hands on her shoulder."No matter what they have to tell us, I’m here, we go through this together." Allie promised. ”We’re stronger than the rogues."They all looked to me with hints of anger and worry all over their faces.“So, what’s wrong?” I questioned as I moved further into the office, and Brody closed the door behind us.“You might want to sit down, sweetheart.” Dad instructed, pointing to the sofas on the other side of the room.I led Brody towards the sofas and made sure he was sat next to me. I’m going to need him close if I’m going to get through this. Mum and Dad joined us, sitting
#Chapter299THE PLACE IS A MAZE“Lila, sweetheart, wake up.”My eyes shot open, and I stared blankly ahead at Brody’s chest; we must have fallen asleep. It took me a few seconds to register, it was my mum’s voice. I peered over my shoulder. My mum was standing beside my bed, awkwardly shuffling side to side on her feet.I sat slowly to try and not wake Brody, and turned completely to Mum.“Everything okay?” I asked.“I’m sorry, Lo.” She sighed, “I didn’t want to enter your room without your permission, but it’s important, baby.”“Sure. What’s wrong?” I asked.She shook her head and took a deep breath.“Dad is waiting for us in his office.”I raised my brow, then nodded.“Okay, give me a minute,” I sighed.I leaned forward and grabbed the comforter from the bottom of the bed and pulled it over Brody.“Brody should probably hear this as well.” She mumbled.“Meet you at Dad’s office then?” I suggested.Mum nodded her head and took a deep breath
#Chapter298A LITTLE NEEDYCallie was over the moon with her bedroom, the smile never left her face. When I showed Brody his room, she didn’t want to come, she wanted to stay in her bedroom and play with her new toys. I didn’t blame her though, she had plenty to choose from, my parents definitely spoiled her.I left Brody to settle in his room, get a shower or whatever he wanted to do. I showed him which room mine was, and that if he or Callie needed me, they could come to my room.I stood in the middle of my room and dragged in a shaky breath. The last time I was in here, I was with Olivia when we were getting ready for my birthday party. I was starting to feel overwhelmed and anxious. Being alone in the room gave me a weird feeling. I need to not think about before and anything that happened. If I think too much, I may just be heading for a mental breakdown."Can we talk?" Brody’s voice filled my mind, and the little anxiety I was beginning to feel about being alone sl
#Chapter297STUPID SOUNDPROOF ROOMSI introduced Callie to the boys after getting the sweetest hello from them. They definitely missed me as much as I missed them. All four of them clung to me for ages. But the meeting between Callie and the boys was cute and warmed my heart. They were certainly excited to meet her. They got on really well, and I knew they would do.We spent time playing in the playroom while Brody was with my dad. I was glad I was with them, because it took my mind off my dad and Brody; it kept me occupied enough that my mind wasn’t constantly thinking about what is being said. I know Brody won’t tell them anything about what happened to me, but part of me wishes he did, because then I wouldn’t have to. Although Brody doesn’t know everything, I mean, he gets the gist of it, but he wasn’t always there."I’ll be there when you tell them. I’ve got your back." Allie cooed."I’m so lucky to have you."When Brody came to the playroom, I heard him and Corbo
#Chapter296FIERY SPIRITBrody’s POV.His eyes went wide, then he cleared his throat and straightened himself out. “You know about our history?” He questioned, raising his brow and leaning forward.I nodded. “Yeah, my mother um, told me after I met Alora.”“And you still saved my daughter?” He questioned.“I’m not my mother. Alora is special, nothing like what they said hybrids were. I had to get her out of there.” I answered.A broad smile appeared on King Alarix’s face as he nodded and sat back with his arms folded.“The guy that pulled her away, who is he?” Corbon asked.I furrowed my brows. “I wasn’t there, so I don’t know what happened, but I assume you’re talking about Luca.” I replied.“And who is this Luca?" Corbon growled.“He’s a wolf, but I don’t know much about him. I can’t tell you anything else though, it’s not my place to say.” I sighed.“The hell you can’t.” Corbon growled. “Tell me about him.”“That’s enough, Corbon.” King Alarix
#Chapter295WHAT EXACTLY ARE YOUBrody’s POV.I followed King Alarix through the palace. It was huge, I don’t think I have ever seen something so grand. When I think of palaces, I imagine old fashion colour schemes, but this isn’t anything like it. The palace is modern and open planned, lots of space.“Just around this corner.” King Alarix mentioned over his shoulder.I nodded and smiled at him. My mind kept going back to the reunion between Alora and her family. Everything we went through getting out of that place, seeing them all together, was so worth it. I don’t think I have ever seen a mum and dad fawn so much over their children. It was heartwarming to witness.My dad died when I was young, so I don’t remember anything about him. Callie’s dad tried, but my mother wasn’t very maternal, so she complained whenever he showed Callie an ounce of love and affection.Our children need to grow up to be leaders, do not make them weak.Showing love and affection does
