ELLE

“You can sit the presents over there,” I said, pointing to the table.

Today was the twins’ first birthday. Everyone decided to throw a huge party in celebration. Nightshade, Shadow Falls, Dark Moon, our vamps, our Fae friends, and our fiery dragons all came to spend this special day together.

Our boys were little heartbreakers already. They were Alpha pups on steroids when it came to their strength and size. They looked more like they were two instead of one. Then they had the intelligence of years beyond themselves. They were their own species so to speak. It was exciting and scary at the same time. We just wanted them to be carefree pups, but they were destined to be so much more.

“Oi,” Denny grunted as Gabriel Reece plowed into him.

Our boys began walking at about six months. They were little hellions with how fast they were. Not to mention that they were already befriending the shadows. Oddly, the boys never did anything harmful. It was like they were self-aware. Caiathus

    SNEAK PEEK FROM FATED SOUL – FATED LIGHT – DANTE “How did you do it?” I asked Kade as I ran my fingers through my hair for the hundredth time today. He pushed a glass of Bourbon to me. It was gone in one swallow. I was a little on fucking edge. Sue me. “I’m not going to lie to you. It’s fucking difficult. I have no idea how I did it because I wanted nothing more than to rip the last breath from each person that hurt my mate. I wanted to watch as their lifeforce left their bodies. Fucking hell. I wished that I could murder every single bastard that even thought something negative about her. However, I realized that destroying them was also about me. It wasn’t just about what happened to Elle. It was about me feeling like a failure for not protecting my mate even though I didn’t know who she was yet.” Kade placed his hands on my shoulders and gave them a comforting squeeze. I came to Kade because he had been in a similar position to what I was in right now. His mate, my sister, ha

  • Fated Rejection - Fated Claim   Chapter 1

    ELLE A shifter’s eighteenth birthday was a monumental occasion for most because it marked the beginning of being able to sense one’s mate. Many dreamed of the day that they met the one that was destined and fated to them. The only one who could truly complete them – their soulmate which was handpicked by the Moon Goddess. I always longed for my mate because love was a concept that I had not really grown up with except a select few people. I was orphaned at the age of five with no memories from before then of who I was or where I came from. Alpha Andrew said that he found me right outside of the pack’s border when I was a pup and brought me back to the Blue Crest pack to be raised by the Omegas of the pack. Blue Crest Omegas were slaves to the pack and were treated as such. Have you ever been treated like you were less than simply because of factors that were outside of your control? It sucked, but that was unfortunately our reality – one that we could never escape from no matter ho

    ELLE ‘Stay strong,’ a melodic voice whispered right before I woke up to a knock on my door. I groaned when I looked at the clock. It was already six in the morning, and I had to get up and get ready for the day. I did not get much in the way of sleep last night because I kept thinking back to the idea of things changing. I could not tell if I was happy about that or nervous. The other part of the troubling equation was whether the change was going to be good or bad. I was not certain how much more bad I could handle without finally cracking. “Come in only if you have java,” I called out, sitting up and stretching my arms over my head. Gabriel opened the door and held up the coffee cup to show me. I chuckled and waved him in. He knew me well enough to know I would need coffee this morning because of how stressed out I had been lately. This party took over an entire month to plan. It required long discussions with Luna about what all she wanted and what she would not accept which eq

    ELLE This was what the Goddess meant by staying strong. There had to be a purpose to this pairing, so I had to stay strong and have faith that it would work out how it was supposed to. Right? That was what I was trying to tell myself at least. Faye was exceptionally quiet. She was certainly in shock because wolves longed to meet their mate even more than the humans did. Her being quiet did nothing for me but make me even more nervous and apprehensive. One would think that she would be jumping for joy and howling into the night sky with her delight. Those were things that she was not doing. At least we were on the same page regarding him. Gabriel placed his hand on the small of my back and gently pushed, knowing I was not thrilled with this. He could read me like a book, so he would understand the war that was raging inside of me without me even uttering a single word to him. However, he also knew that it would be worse for me if I did not go. So, my feet started moving forward desp

    ELLE “It’s great to see you, my Goddess,” I said. It truly was. Having any interaction with her was a significant blessing. I submitted myself to her. I was not entirely certain about what was the proper protocol to observe when coming face-to-face with the Goddess. I was too young to remember what I did the first time around. I just hoped I did not look as unsure and awkward as I felt right now. Her eyes twinkled before she closed the distance and pulled me into her arms instead. Warmth encased my entire body, relaxing it in a way that only her presence could. It was the best hug I ever had in my entire life. It was filled with pure and unadulterated love. Such love was willingly given instead of forced or demanded. It was a love that not even the strongest evil could overcome. “You need not submit yourself to me, Elle. Please call me Selene as well. It is finally time that I can tell you the things that I need to. Come and sit with me,” she said, linking her arm through mine. B

    KADE“You ready for this trip? It’s about a four-hour drive so not too far away,” Apollo said. He was my best friend and Beta. He was damn good in both roles.Was I ready? No. Did I have to go? Yes.I was twenty-four and had yet to find my mate. Normally, that would not be a big deal. However, being the Alpha of a prominent pack set certain expectations upon my shoulders. I took over as Alpha six years ago after my father died in a rogue attack. Our Elders had been trying to force me into taken a chosen mate in order to strengthen the pack for the past year, but I adamantly refused. I would only accept the one fated to me. She would be my equal in all ways. They struck a deal with me that they would lay off entirely on the whole chosen mate thing for two years if I visited various packs in order to increase the likelihood of finding her.This was the third pack that I would be visiting but at least it was not too far away. The first two were complete duds, but I would keep going becau

    KADEI made my way back over to Apollo’s room so that the Luna did not realize I switched rooms. He opened the door with a glare, but I just shrugged. I often had to do things for our pack that I did not care for, so that was what he was doing now. He just needed to be a team player on this.“Imagine how much it would hurt your new Luna to have this one coming in to make a move while she and I were getting to know each other. It could make her feel betrayed. Do this for her,” I said, squeezing his shoulder.“Fine. For her. Not you because you fucking suck,” he said, shaking my hand off his shoulder. “How are you feeling?” he asked.Apollo knew how much I wanted a mate. My grandparents had an amazing connection that held strong to this day. Gramps still took Grams out on dates every Friday night unless it was a full moon. He would move those date nights accordingly. They said that life of a leader was hectic and stressful. Intentionally making time for your mate was what created strong

    KADE‘You must let it play out. They need to see his power,’ the Goddess whispered into my head.Her words were not comforting because that meant that something was about to happen. I had to trust that my mate would be fine because the Goddess was not cruel. She brought us together for a reason, and that would not be to let us meet before we were murdered.The Alpha family glared at my mate, obviously feeling left out. They had no idea who she was at all or that she had a direct connection to the Goddess. The ‘weak Omega’ that the little bitch chose to reject was anything but.“You didn’t tell them?” I asked her with a smirk, amusement dripping from that simple question.“They didn’t deserve to know,” she said plainly with her own amusement. Her eyes held mine, and I was a goner.My respect for her just increased even more. I could guarantee that she put up with their shit, but they did not break her. It was impossible to break someone who held true strength within them. I did not mea

  • Fated Rejection - Fated Claim   Chapter 132

    KADE Time had passed by quickly, and life moved on with it. Those bastards involved in Ada’s murder and Anya’s attempted murder, had been tortured until every single detail was spilled. There really had not been much left in them, but we enjoyed exacting justice for what they did. Apparently, Ada had no idea who the bastard was when he got her pregnant. He essentially had roofied her at the library one day when she was studying. It made sense why she had dropped out of school and moved back to the pack after that. She had been drugged, raped, and gotten pregnant from it. It was not until they were torturing her that she learned the truth all along. The bastard took great pleasure in detailing exactly what happened, including using illegal herbs to force becoming pregnant. Elle made sure that I sliced his dick off for that bit. Only my mate could sit in the corner of a torture chamber and eat mint chocolate chip ice cream while giving us suggestions here and there without being aff

    ELLE Kade insisted that we get a checkup when we got back to the pack. I could not deny him the reassurance that the twins and I were okay because I knew how terrified he had been about me being on that battlefield in the first place. I had asked Dante if he wanted to come as well since he had not really been present since he was at Dark Moon during everything. It was where he needed to be, but he was back here now. “We’ll be doing your scan. Is there anything new that you’ve experienced, Luna?” Dr. Silva asked as she prepared the machine. I bit my lip, trying to think of how to explain the odd occurrence on the battlefield. I had not even mentioned it to anyone, so I hoped that Kade remembered how much he loved me. “There was an unavoidable situation –” I was cut off by my mate. “She means a battle,” Kade interrupted, giving me a pointed look. Dr. Silva looked at me with widened eyes as if that was the last thing she had expected to hear. I understood how this looked from an ou

    ELLE The battle with Bandore really had not been a battle at all. The closest thing that I had experienced were feeding rooms. However, even that did not compare to this right here and now. Adrenaline pulsed throughout my body, reminding me to stay alert at all times. There was no room for our failure here because that would mean the death of all involved as well as the pack behind us. There was no greater honor than to be given the opportunity to save those who needed us. Brynn had an important destiny, one that I was not privy to know the details of other than she was a prophesized and chosen Vessel. My cryptic ass wolf just loved annoying the shit out of me like that. ‘You know me so well,’ she cooed. ‘I couldn’t ask for a better wolfy than you.’ ‘And I couldn’t ask for a better human than you. I’m blessed that Selene chose me to be your wolfy.’ I smiled despite the carnage everywhere. Faye just proved that there was beauty that could be found even in the midst of damaging ch

  • Fated Rejection - Fated Claim   Chapter 129

    ELLE Kade and I grabbed a few hours of sleep before making our way down to the Command Center as Apollo so conveniently named it. We had all of our leadership, a conglomeration of our vamp friends, Caiathus’ brothers, the Council, Mystra, Fyst, and Celeste as well. Gabriel and Ansley pushed in coffee carts, and my entire day finally felt right. I eagerly grabbed my specialty drink that was always perfectly made. I sighed as the first sip hit my taste buds. “You still really suck, sis. It’s not fair that you can drink caffeine,” Ansley huffed. “You could always take it up with Selene,” I said coyly, taking another sip. Gabriel vehemently shook his head back and forth behind her. He apparently did not like that idea whatsoever. “Why would you be against your amazing mate asking for such a simple thing? Do you not want her to have caffeine? Perhaps you shouldn’t be having caffeine either then if you’re going to be unfair to my amazing sister,” I told him with mock shame. Her head

    KADE I was waiting for our people to finish putting the trash in the cells and join me in the office. Honestly, I needed a bit of time to cool down before I dealt with them unless we wanted to just snap their necks and be done with it all. That seemed too lenient a punishment for them though. The memory of finding Ada’s body would forever haunt me until I drew my last breath. Nobody deserved that type of treatment or death. I sighed, rubbing my eyes, and scrubbing a hand over my face. It was seriously throwing me for a loop that we had traitors in our pack and in our ranks yet again. Would there ever come a day when traitors would no longer exist within Nightshade? It was like an endless cycle that we could never break from. Ada and Anya deserved justice. What would that be though? How much would be enough? Honestly, nothing would ever be enough because they suffered far too much. I grabbed the framed scan of our pups from my desk and smiled at it. They were such a blessing alrea

    ELLE His daughter. Anya was his daughter. I tried, and failed, to understand what that claim meant because he willingly murdered his own pup. He did not know she was alive, and he never would. He was a threat that we would eliminate before he could even think about sending any harm her way. “You knew who Ada was to you,” Kade said, coming to the same conclusion that I did. “Of course, I did,” he said nonchalantly. “Ada was a full-blooded witch. I was only half-blooded. However, I knew that a child between the two of us would yield even stronger magic than if I sought someone else out. It was for the greater good.” Kade did not like that at all, so a shadow slid across the bastard’s throat, strangling him. My mate held it for a count of five before the shadow relaxed but did not move from his throat. “You mean it was for your greater good,” I spat coldly. He smirked at me and looked very pleased with himself. I returned the smirk with one of my own because he was about to see a s

    KADE I woke up with a start, heart pounding, and not understanding what was going on. It felt like my emotions were drowning me. Elle’s side of the bed was cold, causing me to jump out of bed and find her. We still had no idea who the hell killed Ada, so we had no idea who we could trust outside of our own leadership. We had been down the road of traitors before, but I did not expect us to be back there once again. Was this a cycle we would always face? I threw on some shorts and went to find my mate. It was not hard to find her, but my heart broke when I did. She was in the living room, rocking back and forth on the floor, sobbing her heart out. “I’m here, darling. I’ve got you,” I murmured as sat down and pulled her onto my lap. She buried her face in my chest and continued to cry for Ada and Anya. I was right there with her as tears welled up in my eyes as well for them and for her as well. My mate was the strongest person that I knew. She survived years of being tortured in e
