Ora’s POV

I have so many questions. But Aunt Jo looks like hell. She must be in shock, as she’s incapable of speaking.

Instead of bombarding her, I decided to shut up and help her. Whenever I was sick as a child, Aunt Jayne would bring me a glass of cold water, something plain to eat, and one of her elixirs. The potion won’t help Aunt Jo if she’s pregnant. But the food and drink might.

“I’ll be right back,” I told my aunt. I rushed down the hallway, heading toward the kitchen. Maybe a piece of plain toast. It doesn’t have a strong smell.

When I stepped into the kitchen, Carson was there, frying some bacon. He had to be the baby’s father. There is no one else. Aunt Jo doesn’t even talk to any of the other men in the academy. Okay, that’s not true. Occasionally, and only if she has to, she has to talk to Principal Andrews.

Should I tell Carson about Aunt Jo? I ask myself. Heck no. I answered my question. I cannot imagine the wrath Aunt Jo would unleash on me if she though

    Jo’s POV I’ve never had an interest in learning about other people’s deities. The goddess Selene is my goddess. In my book, I don’t disrespect other people's faith; they don’t disrespect mine. That’s why I have never entered a church. That is the Catholic God’s house. But today I need to tell my sisters my news. So I swallow my pride as I walk towards the sandstone building that has probably stood for centuries. Ora has told me many times that Father Nicholas is a friendly man. She tells me he maintains an open-minded stance towards faith. Which is why he offers a multi-faith day on the last day of the month. Before, I walked through the huge arched doorway. I stall “Today I ask permission to enter.” I whisper to the invisible entity. I then take a step inside and snort. He didn’t smite me. I take that as a sign that he is allowing me entry. I watch as Ora uses the water from a fountain at the end of the foyer. But I refrain from using the blessed water. This is a Cathol

    Goldie’s POV I am sitting on a chair in Shannen’s bedroom. She is sitting on her bed with Matty. He has his arm wrapped around her shoulders. The way he looks at her is so adorable. “I don’t care. I’m giving it to you today.” I said as I handed Shannen her birthday present. In the next few days, her life is going to change forever. As she rips off the wrapping paper, I tell her, “It’s fully charged, and I uploaded your favorite version.” A smile spreads across her face when she realizes what it is. Shannen enjoys reading so much. But her electronic book is so old I am surprised it still works. “Not only is it the latest model, but it also has a back-light for reading in the dark.” I brag. She turns on the e-reader and I go to close the curtains. I sat next to her to show her how it works. She squeals with delight as the device lights up. I could see Shannen’s beaming smile. I knew then I had chosen a perfect present for her. “I know what I’m doing for the next few hours,” then S

    Jo’s POV Panic sets in as I watch Ora hurriedly rush down the stairs. My backpack was slung over her shoulder. “It’s too late. She’s here.” I told her as she neared the bottom of the stairs. Ora slowed to a stop. Ora looks around at the students who are congregating nearby. I watch as tears fall from her eyes. The reality of the situation hit her. She sucks in her cheeks and nods her head as more tears fall from her eyes. “I’ll go with her.” “Over my dead body,” I snapped. Jupiter howls in agreement with me. “If she makes it to the academy. She could kill everyone here.” She waved her arms around. “I won’t have their blood on my hands. They’re innocent.” She says adamantly. I am about to protest. “It’s not just Millicent,” Maria says from behind me. I turned around to face her. “What do you mean?” I asked. “Broady is with them.” She says his name like it’s supposed to mean something to me. I look at Carson for clarity. He may not show it on his face, but the sound coming

    Shannen’s POV Goldie and Matty gave me the lowdown on Broady before I came to Beta Academy. The way he bullied his way through Beta Academy, and how he tried to bully them. How he tried to kill my sister and how he killed his classmates and Coach Jamerson. I didn’t think he would still be alive or in the area. But there he stood, threatening the three of us. I couldn’t help but be repulsed that he would betray his kind. Not only that, but getting excited about biting into my flesh, because I was Matty’s mate. The sicko. The thought of him touching being that near me was revolting. After Jo’s speech in the foyer, it put everything in perspective for me. I would stand up and fight for what is right. I know there is a lot to be done. But I need to give myself and Matty a better chance of surviving. “Come with me,” I told him. He didn’t budge, so I grabbed his hand and dragged him up the stairs with me. “Where are we going?” Matty asks. “My bedroom,” I said, not

    Matty’s POV I had waited nearly a year to mark Shannen. It would have been her birthday after she graduated from Beta Academy. I’ve meticulously planned and made all the necessary arrangements for a big celebration. Heck, I even brought Goldie for the celebration. Then, before the end of the night, I would whisk her away, and we could make our lifelong commitment to one another. We would only get that opportunity once. But now, I can’t help but feel that she has been robbed. Forced to mark one another in the belief that we will make each other stronger. I took great delight in enjoying Shannen’s body repeatedly. I think she also enjoyed mine. But after we marked each other, I didn’t feel any different physically. But mentally, Killian would want to survive so he could complete the mating process. Maybe that’s what the saying refers to. Despite my disappointment. Shannen is officially my mate, and I am ecstatic. Killian is frustrated that he has to wait. But with the current si

    Jo’s Pov Jupiter snickered at the creatures that made their way up the driveway of Beta Academy. “This is nothing compared to the creatures she brought with her during the Witch Wars. But she also recruited witches, warlocks, and wolves. The serpents are a fresh addition, though,” Jupiter states. “Yes. But the Wolf King had an army of trained soldiers. Wolf warriors who took an oath to protect the kingdom and the crown. They knew what they were getting themselves into. Not to mention the Witch Queen by his side. Ora has an academy of future Beta’s.” I answered her. I tighten my grip on the long daggers I hold in my hands. “She has me,” Jupiter tells me confidently. “No, she has us,” I corrected my wolf. I looked around and didn’t see him. “Thank the goddess. She didn’t bring Marco with her.” I whispered to myself. Marco was Millicent’s loyal servant, her bodyguard. A witch doctor whose poison darts were so potent they would kill within minutes. He and Millicent were inse

    Killian’s POV I would follow Tala to the end of the earth. She’s not only my Luna Queen, she’s my best friend. Let’s not forget my mate’s sister as well. As a Beta wolf, I should be smaller than an Alpha. But I am bigger and stronger than other Beta’s. This is because I will be the Beta to the Wolf Kings. I need to have the ability to challenge them if the need ever arises. This is to my advantage today. I know Matty wishes he was the one to kill Broady. But this is a wolf fight. It is a pity that Foster has allowed himself to be swayed by Broady. In the end, regardless of form. If you kill one, you kill them both, and today I’m going to get my revenge on what Broady did. “Today we get justice for Mya, Kai, and Coach Jamerson,” Matty tells me as he recalls the night Broady attacked them on the wolf run. Tala leads the way, howling as we approach the attacking rogues. She may not be the strongest wolf, but she is fearless and won’t back down. She doesn’t care about the f

    Shannen’s POV The snake may not have injected much venom, but it still stings like hell every time I put pressure on my left leg. But that doesn’t matter. What matters is getting to Killian. I watched in horror as an anaconda pinned him to the ground. It will only be a matter of time before it crushes him to death. Carron is pushing me to go faster. “Heal me and I will,” I answered back. It’s not her fault she is worried about Killian. We both are. But I am going as fast as I can. As I limp towards Killian, something grabs my arm, dragging me to the side. A beast-like creature trying to bite my arm with its razor-sharp teeth. I have nothing to defend myself with. Why don’t I have a weapon? I scold myself. So I do the only thing I can do. With my free hand, I punched the monster in its eye. When it released my arm. I grabbed hold of its face and forced my thumbs into its eye socket. The feeling of the monster’s slimy eyeball on my thumbs was absolutely revolting. Regardless, I s

    Evangeline’s POV Nathan has been exceptionally accommodating ever since we settled into his home and kingdom. Edgar spends quite a lot of time with him and Jasper. It’s good to see Edgar finally relaxing after all these years. I think abdicating may have been a wise decision. I get to spend time with Ora and Shannen a lot these days. Maria’s mates have been treating her like she is breakable, which is driving her potty. As the date of Maria’s scan approaches. Nathan has been becoming more and more agitated. Edgar and Jasper have been helping him relieve some of that aggression in the training field. But I can see the emotional toll it is taking on him. I talked to Asher, Dexter, and Finley, asking for permission to speak with Maira privately. At first, they said no, “Whatever Maria is going through, she has us to support her,” Finley told me. “This is a difficult time for any family. I understand that. Maria may have relied on her mother for guidance, but she isn’t here. I am no

    Benson’s POV “It will be okay,” I told Rhea as we drove to the Dark Crescent Pack. Ora and Rhea are sitting in the back seat and I can see how restless she is. “I know, but I still feel nervous about returning home,” she says. Rhea hasn’t been home since the hunters took her. We are both concerned mom will have a heart attack if she just turns up. So we both agreed to break the news to her gently. Which is why the back windows of the car are tinted. Edgar and Evangeline have given us a head start. But they are on their way to meet their in-laws. “No matter how you are feeling. Can you imagine what mom is going to be like?” I said as I approached the border’s gates. I lower the window and am greeted by a guard. He ushers me through without hesitation, telling me he has informed my dad about my arrival. I drive slowly through the pack so that Ora can see where I grew up. “It’s so quaint,” she says. “The people are so nice here. It was a great place to grow up.” Rhea tells her

    Ora’s POV After leaving Scotland, we traveled south. To a place I once called home. I had so many mixed feelings on the journey. I had lived there in that farmhouse for as long as I can remember. I have so many memories there. What stands out in my memory now, is that this is the place where Aunt Jayne and Aunt Josie lost their lives. As we pulled down the long drive, there was nothing in sight. No buildings, no equipment. Nothing but grass. “Everything is gone,” I said sadly as I got out of the car and walked around. “There is a chance Millicent burned the place to the ground to cover her tracks,” Mom told me. “You will always have your memories of this place before the attack,” Benson says. “Do you remember the time I hid in the barn?” I smile, but that’s all it is now, a memory. “Feels like a lifetime ago,” I said as he kissed my hand. “Did you do anything off the farm? Maybe that will cheer you up,” Dad asked me. “I had a pretty strict upbringing. Going out

    Evangeline’s POV Our alarm went off just as Edgar and I were still busy. We grinned at one another. “It’s been a while since we had a night like that,” he announced proudly. “Hopefully, we get to do it again. Now that life is as it should be,” I responded. There have been instances in the past where I felt guilty for my happiness while my child was out there somewhere. But that is behind me now. As we entered the dining room, I was surprised to see Ora and Benson sitting there. Ora’s hair was tied up, showing off Benson’s mark on her neck. “I guess we had better get used to having a son and a daughter,” I told Edgar before we sat opposite the couple. Coffee is brought to our table. “Have you given any thoughts about your future?” Edgar asks Ora. She stops eating and questions him about what she means. “You are our daughter. By birth, you are the heir to the throne. A princess.” Ora places her knife and fork down before she looks at Benson. “I would follow you anywhere,” Ben

    Evangeline’s POV It’s a hard pill to swallow. The baby I once cradled in my arms is now a woman. I have missed so much. I fear I will never truly get to know my daughter now that her mate bond has snapped into place. As I maneuver around the room, I see so many new friends. But the person I am keeping my eye on the most is Edgar. He is in overprotective dad mode. Every time Benson and Ora go to leave the room, he is there, blocking their path. The next time he does it, I will say something. I tell myself, knowing it won’t be long. But first, there is someone I need to speak to. I glanced around the room, easily spotting her vibrant red hair. She sees me approaching and straightens up. “Be in my lab in an hour. Bring your arrowhead. All being well, we will leave tomorrow.” I told her quickly as I could see Edgar moving again. “See if Kristopher can help,” I said as I rushed away. “Where are you two off to?” I caught Edgar asking the couple as he stood in front of them with h

    Jo’s POV “Haven’t you slept for long enough?” Jupiter asks. It’s good to hear her voice even if she is complaining. “A few more minutes,” I pleaded as I stretched my limbs, hitting someone in the process. My eyes flew open, fearing who it could be. I turned my head to the side to see a face I had not seen in a very long time. “Gosh, you’ve aged badly,” I told Nathan as I rolled on my side and stroked his face. “I’ve aged fine. Thank you very much, Joanna. It’s the trouble you’ve brought to my doorstep that’s aged me. I think I’ve aged a decade since finding out you were here.” He retorts. “Are you saying I shouldn’t have come back when I had nowhere else to go?” He pulls me close to him. “You should never have left. You owe me an explanation.” He says adamantly. Seeing the pain on his face makes me think I may have made a bad decision back then. But I made it based on Nathan having a life full of happiness with his mate. I made the hard sacrifice, so he didn’t have to. I love him

    Wolf King Nathan’s POV Ajax has been inconsolable since our mate bond was severed. He decided our best chance right now was to be in human form. Being in human form would mean we had a clearer head, as the mate bond was connected through the wolf. Then he could be blocked out. I stood side by side next to my son’s wolves. Face a group of creatures set on destroying us. Every wolf around me stood strong, growling as our enemies got closer. Then, when they were close enough to smell them, we charged forward. Cooper, Colt, and Cody blocked my path. I tried to get involved, but this only distracted them. I begrudgingly took a step back for their safety. It left a bitter taste in my mouth. The howling intensified with the arrival of more wolves to the fight. I don’t know who they are, but I am grateful they are here. To make myself useful, I approach the ice wall, intending to break through it. That will be the next task we face. “It’s solid,” I say as I kick it in frustration. I cou

    Merida’s POV With everything going on here and worrying about my Ma back home. I needed to blow off some steam. With my new bow and a couple of quills, I went for some target practice. I know it’s old, a lot older than I am. But this bow feels like it was custom-made for me. It’s the perfect height and weight for me. The wood is sturdy but also bendable, and the string fires my arrows faster than any other material I’ve used. It is a work of art. When Rhea suggested lighting my arrows, I couldn’t believe it. “Best day ever,” I whispered, causing her to snicker. “Wolf hearing,” she responded. I was having a great time until Frederick had to spoil my fun by telling me not to waste my arrows and sending Rhea to be with her brother. Benson is alright, but I still haven’t forgiven him or Ellie for what they did to me. Just as I was aiming to shoot an arrow at a tree, the wall of Beta Academy exploded. While dodging the flying debris, I got hit on the head. A flying piece of debris. Th

    Anabelle’s POV Frederick said I would die protecting someone important, and he was right. I protected an unconscious woman and her unborn baby. How important they are doesn’t matter, they are defenseless. The pain in my chest was excruciating, and I had trouble taking breaths. I struggled to keep my eyelids open as I tried to breathe. When they closed, happy memories of my family appeared, the things that brought me the most joy. I could hear Maria’s reassuring voice telling me help was coming. The more time I spent with my eyes closed, the more my memories lengthened. That’s when I saw memories of Ellie and me running around the castle growing up. Getting into all sorts of mischief. I began to cry at the thought of leaving Ellie. She would be all alone in this world without me. But there was nothing I could do. My chest hurt so much. Ellie was my last thought as everything became dark. I felt so cold. As the darkness consumed me. Kristopher suddenly appeared out of nowhere. A br
