Here you go, lovelies! Thanks for staying tuned.
KALENNo matter how hard I tried to fall asleep, it kept eluding me. Maddox had passed into the land of dreams well over an hour ago. He would end up waking up if I continued being restless.I applied every bit of Ninja skills in my arsenal to sneak out of bed without waking him up. An award for Best Ninja Ever should be awarded to me. Nika was giving me two paws up for my performance.‘Neo will let him know where we are if he wakes up,’ she told me.‘Naughty wolves. What have you been up to?’ I teased her.‘You know, the usual. Flirting, link sex, living out our naughty little fantasies. However, he and I get to be in control for the next pole dance,’ she informed me with a giggle.I slipped on a pair of shorts and a tank top before leaving the bedroom. Then I slipped on my sneakers, grabbed my phone, and headed out.There was one place where I was always able to let loose. Something Mom taught me early on in life was that exhaustion could bring us peace when there was nothing but cha
MADDOXWe had been briefed by Nightshade that there were only two days before the showdown between Julio, the hunters, and us all. Julio’s goal was to enslave Angel. The hunter's goal was to bring Nightshade down. Suffice to say that neither would be happening. Jaxon had come to the pack and helped me refine some of my abilities. He would be fighting without his abilities because he wanted me to practice for when our own battle came. I was able to hit moving targets with lightning, but I was also able to tone down the voltage so that it would not kill on impact. Jaxon could actually absorb lightning, so he was the perfect subject to test it on without risking anyone.I had never had someone who felt like a brother before since Calvin never kept good company, and I was limited to it, but I already felt close to Jaxon. He was super fucking easy to get along with and had a wicked sense of humor. Not to mention that we were both walking fucking weirdos, so at least we were not alone in t
KALENThis was not the first battle that I had been a part of. The first one occurred when I was thirteen. It was not anything as serious as this, but my parents begun training me and Nika early on, knowing that we would have a future on the battlefield as both an Alpha and a Vessel.There was something cathartic about fighting that always calmed me down and opened me up at the same time. Relying on my strength and survival instinct certainly pushed me to my limits at times. But it proved to me what I was capable of doing.Many people said that they could never see themselves clearly. That was the same for me except when I was fighting. That was when I could spread my wings and see myself clearly.Surprisingly, Maddox and I immediately fell into a rhythm when it came to fighting together.Zion and Matteo had always been the two who would complement my fighting style well enough that we could do some serious damage. However, it took time to stabilize that connection. It was not the same
MADDOXThat shadow trick was completely unexpected but equally welcome. I was not certain how it differentiated between the people, but it seemed to have somehow figured out who was a threat and who was not. At least that was what Beauty told me it did.All of us worked on cuffing those who needed to be cuffed. We would not be taking any chances at fucking all. Once they were restrained, the shadows ended up disappearing.The hunters were stripped of all weapons. The men were also stripped down to their pants. The females were all wearing tank tops underneath their uniforms, so they were allowed to keep the pants and tank top.Specialized handcuffs went on the shifters that would suppress their wolves, blocking all links as well, and essentially rendering them human. It was something that they certainly did not fucking appreciate but amused us all.The witches on our side were able to point out the ones who were enemy witches. Those ones got outfitted with special inhibitor cuffs, whic
KALENSifting through the masses of people that we saved from Julio’s parade of terror took a very long time, but it was worth every moment because these people were gaining back control of their lives.We had no idea where some of the children had come from, so the Supernatural Council would be sending trackers out in an attempt to locate their families.Our allied packs had already shared what their capacity was to take in those who needed somewhere to stay, whether it was permanent or temporary until they could get back home or decide to where they would like to go.The pack members from little Eliza’s pack will be coming with us. My parents were already completely enthralled with the newest Anderson.Seeing how Maddox was with Eliza – that instant connection that they found – had me thinking about the amazing father that he would be to our pups one day.I knew that I was not yet ready for pups. I was still seventeen. Yes, I was mated and all, but there was still a lot of shit that
MADDOXFighting to take down the fuckers who thrived within this chaos gave me a sense of peace. It felt like I was being redeemed and cleansed of the shit I had done in the past. I would spend the rest of my life doing everything that I could for that redemption.Yes, I was following Calvin’s orders, but I still did it. He was truly a sadistic fucker who got off on hurting others. He started grooming me after Mom ‘died’ and went to some serious lengths just to make me compliant to his demands. I had tried to fight it all in the beginning, but I was weak and wanted to avoid my body being destroyed time and again.I had always envied the innocence of pups and the way that they would look at the world that was filled with adventure. The ones who saw the good in others. I had never gotten close to any because I was afraid of tainting that innocence and ripping it away from them.It was amazing to witness how accepting they were of me even though I was a stranger. I wanted to do everything
KALENKalamar would be attending the meeting with his parents, who led the thunder, and the ones who were in charge of the training and safety of everyone.Since they had witch heritage, their blood had to be added to the boundary. Thankfully, the blood of his parents would allow anyone of his thunder’s members to cross without needing to use their own blood since the entirety of the thunder was bonded through his parents.Aunt Imeela, Uncle Jackson, Zion, and some of their Cabinet members would be attending. Valis and his leadership would also be coming.Certain allied packs, covens, and clans would be joining us this morning. We were planning a war after all and were short on time. More brainpower that could work on this would be welcome.We were also bringing Lilac’s parents so that they could see how we would be keeping their daughter safe. They would be able to see the sheer amount of power on our side.Lilac and Eliza would be coming to Nightshade, where we were having the planni
MADDOXHonestly, it was still strange to see Kalamar because of his previous connection Calvin. However, I truly appreciated everything that he had done. I was also thankful for his people’s help with this war.It was reassuring to see the large group of people that were gathered here. These were the leaders and those who were integral to strategizing. There was an incredible amount of power in this gathering, making me hopeful that we would end up pulling this off.I knew what Beauty would be suggesting the moment that her aunt mentioned what they found out about poison. It would require another astral walk where she would be hoping that a bite would transfer more poison. I was not fucking thrilled about that at all, but I understood why she would want to do it. We needed every advantage that we could get against our enemies.Was it possible to somehow use me to get the venom? Perhaps Jaxon would have some insight. I knew that we did not have all of the same abilities or anything, but
