Khai’s POVMuch to Liliths upset Theo and I stake out three following nights waiting for the next ‘rogue attack’ from Dane’s pack.It doesn’t come, not as we expected and that’s three nights of shit sleep in and we’re both on tender hooks.Tonights night four though, and whilst allowing our wolves to take tonight, on the promise we can kip whilst they wait, I’m finding it hard to wind down in Obsidians head.Everything in his mind races like one of those human kids that never stops. The bounce from here the next country over and back and are annoying as fuck but everyone loves them.That’s how his mind is racing.Sounds, smell and sight is processing like a bitch everything is overwhelming and I do not remember the last three nights being this way.It’s because I’m tired, no doubt so I should sleep.Yes you should, Obsidian grumbles at me.I wish I could, I want to and it’s not without the effort of trying but my mind will not shut off.It could also be because of some haunch that I’m
Theo's POVI'm unimpressed to state that Conner, Darren and Malik hadn't listened hard enough to know Danes Wolf was coming from the side.He wasn't running straight ahead, he was creeping alongside the boundary line and he strikes all three at once.They go flying, bodies smacking but Conner manages to claw the floor to stabilise himself enough to start running towards the large grey and brown wolf that's circling the two younger and newly trained warriors.Conner knocks the wolf with a lunge as soon as the wolf goes to bite at Lacklands neck. The scramble moves out of view so Rex crawls a little closer.Vision restored and I can see Conners wolf and the rogue scrapings back and forth as they roll around on the ground.I wish I could say either had the upper hand but it seems they are matched in training and neither is able to get the upper hand.They go back and forth, bloodC fur and tissue form both of their wolves flying around as the scrap continues.Everything inside me wants t
Lilith’s POVI should be sleeping, tucked up in bed warm and comfy catching the very thing I need to function tomorrow, but instead I find myself sitting in the bed having just put Lora down with not intention of sleeping.The pillows surround me, the duvet covering my body keeping me warm and I sit feeling Theo and Khai, ensuring they are okay.Which they are, they are happy, content and comfortable.I know why they have chosen to sit out with the warriors, I know that they feel a sense of duty as alphas but they should be here besides me, in bed where I can snuggle into the pair of them.They are my barrier, my warmth and protection rolled into two hunky bodies that I’m craving deeply.Yet we haven’t had the time in the last four days to act upon my impulses.I chew the skin on my finger at that thought.Perhaps that’s why I’m so upset with them, the need to fuck making me cranky because I haven’t had any…I guess I need to be more forceful, take what I want when I need it rather th
Khai's POVA single droplet of blood forms under her nose, falling from her right nostril as Theo dresses ready to leave with the doctor and kid laying on our dinner table.I reach forward rubbing at the blood."You’re bleeding,” I say making Theo and the doctor turn to her.We rush to seat her, the doctor taking out a machine to check her blood pressure as we crowd her.I can smell her angst but that does not perturb any of us from ensuring she’s okay.And she is, her blood pressure fine, her temperature also fine.But my gut feels unease as I think of her bleeding after doing… after healing that boy.And we all jump at the same time as that said boy sits up gasping for breath as if he’s been submerged under water for the longest time without breath.“Fucking hell,” I mutter as Theo growls his way.We all turn our attention to the boy that had been limp only a few moments ago.He stares at us with fear, looking around confused to be inside the pack house.I suppose his last memories
Theo's POVI struggle with the need to attend the fight happening whilst taking Lilith to bed.My loyalties lie with the whole pack and I know that they are in good hands with Khai, for he's proved himself but I cannot ignore the need to be there alongside him ensuring my warriors are okay.But instead of doing that I tend to Lilith, fussing over her as she decides to shower."You should be resting, not showering," I tell her." I feel dirty, join me?" She challenges.I look at her face, stained red where the blood dripped from her nose on her upper lip.Her healing that boy took its toll on her body and that scares me.I do not want her to harm herself of these pups because she found a new ability that she wants to investigate.I hate the thought of demanding she does not continue to heal people but that's exactly what I want to demand of her.She cannot do something that will harm her in the long run, and whilst I'm thinking about this I hate the fact she refused to go with Dr Knigh
Khai's POVTalk about trying to distract me the moment I've left.Obsidian is running through the woodland towards the commotion up ahead and there's Theo and Lilith making out.I feel every god damned emotion doubly.One thing about having more than one mate is the confusion between how different people can feel elation and connection.Lilith's emotions are deeper, of course, but I suppose that has something to do with the hormones running through her body.My cock and Obsidians hardens at the sounds coming through in broken connections. I'm unsure whether they've realised an open connection is sitting between us but then again I think they are far to preoccupied to feel me peeping in on their shower sex.How did I know it was shower sex, you ask?I hear the running water in the background.Feel the wet steam clinging to their skin, that's how.I try to shut them out after making a comment to Theo but it's hard and I find myself distracted when I come to the warriors fighting with a
Theo's POVLilith is sleeping soundly in bed as I hear Khai walking silently through the wood.He returns with a small she-wolf, whom he's holding onto gingerly with one hand around her wrist.The poor girl is naked, no clothing covering her but so is Khai.This is the problem of being a shifter.Clothes rip to shreds, leaving us open to the elements and naked when we shift back.I'm unsure why he made her shift, she isn't injured as badly as the others have been, her ability to stay in wolf form would have aided her in healing quicker.But I presume he had a valid reason.The girls hair is matted, skin covered in blood and her face scared as if she's fought many times in her life.But even under those imperfections you can see her natural beauty.She smirks at me, as my eyes land on hers and I wonder how long she's been staring at me staring at her.I think we might have been in trouble if Lilith were awake.Her jealously would have caused her to do many things, but most prominently
Lilith's POVIt doesn't feel as if I've rested when an unusual and quite frankly horrid smell wakes me.Khai is pinned to my, his head on my chest and his hand cradling my cheek.And I find it's his palm that stinks to high heavens.For a moment I inhale him, sniffing like an idiot as I try to take in the scent and place it.But I cannot, because it's another females.A she-wolf that has no meaning to me all over Khai.My hormones get the better of me, forcing me to love quickly, to have Khai pinned beneath me.He looks up to me with sleepy eyes yet his hands ride my waist down to my bottom as a small smirk filters it's way across his face."Morning, baby," he greets me.My hand loves of its own volition, landing on his cheek with a sharp thud as I put my all into it.He sits up, holding his cheek confused."What the hell, Lil?" He mutters in disbelief."Who is she?" I ask him with more venom than I've ever owned previously."What?!" He asks confused.His eyes wide and his features fr
Zeus's POVThey say evil rules the world, and I'd like to agree wholly especially as I watch Hati finally take the child that will soon become the queen of the earth realm.Theseus died some years ago at my hand as we fought for the title of god. I took his wonderful wife in as my prisoner, indebting her to me at the promise I would let her child, and the grandchildren live peacefully.But I did no such thing. Bringing Theo, Khai and Lilith here to the god realm to be my prisoners with their dear children as they also live out their lives locked within the house they cannot leave.Most believed Theseus would win, that he would take over from me, including his family.But love weakens you, and Goddess Adophen aided me in his demise.She has the gift of projection, and she distracted him easily as she projected herself as his wife and then daughter, taking his concentration and that love that is not a man’s best friend.I'm thankful for her, and I promised her that her daughter and son
15 years LaterHati's POVThe time has come, my beautiful Lorrie has come into her wolf, and I can feel the mate bond calling for her.She's been feeling it too, and though I've kept myself away for the last week I cannot stop the inevitable for much longer.Belle has given her blessing, she's taking the other kids, all five of them, out to the other house for the weekend to give me time with Lorrie alone.It's time for me to claim my mate and create the Luna our pack deserves.So I have Calley cook us dinner, stopping her twice to take her in uncompromising positions as she mutters her disapproval very loudly.And then I lock her down in the cells below the house for the remainder of the weekend intent on making sure she knows her place within this pack.Soon she'll have to answer to Lorrie instead of Belle. She'll have to bow down to her luna's disappointment and she's already made a distant enemy of Aspen over the years."Bring me the luna," I demand to Belle as she gathers our chi
Hati's POVTrue to a wolf pregnancy Belle is only pregnant for around nine weeks, her belly swelling fast as she grows my pup within her.And one fateful night as the wind howls and the rain falls she starts her labour as we lay our son to sleep.Lorrie refuses to go down and starts to get in the way as Belle circles on the floor through her pain as Lorrie tries to hold onto her mothers hands."Mama, up," she cries asking for up as she outstretched her arms up to Belle who looks to me for help as she winces once more."Calley," I yell out, intent on having Lorrie away from this ordeal, knowing I have no one else I'd rather trust with the child.Yes she might well have an ulterior motive, but I have no doubt that she would die for this kid. Anyway, I don't want to scar the child, I don't want her to remember her mother in pain when I want her to have only good memories of her.It takes Calley a moment but she comes, knocking on the door in her pj's as she looks at the vision before he
One Year LaterHati's POVLorrie has turned into a funny little thing. She's walking and talking in toddler gibberish and I fall in love with her more everyday as she fills our life with fun and happiness.I can see why Celeste matched her soul to Aspens. She's spunky, confident and happy just like Aspen has always been. We ended up relocating around three to four months ago, coming out of hiding, leaving the continental US.Now we live in the very green Scotland, in the rainy United Kingdom.We've decided to try and blend in, whilst living in the middle of nowhere.It's been an adjustment weather wise, but we really don't come by people often, and the home we brought is surrounded by acres of green forest which is perfect for us to shift.And shift we must, because the lack of shifting causes aging, and that brings problems regarding healing one's self because our bodies resort to being only human.And I have a surprise for you, something I never imagined or cared for but equally was
Khai's POV"Aaah!" She screams as pain radiates through her mid region. I hadn't expected her to wake from her nap in pain, I also hadn't expected her to tell me we won't be finding Lora but she did that to and despite knowing she probably has the gifts to see such things, I deny her allegations and pretend that we will find her. To say she took me off guard would be an understatement but all I could do was call for Theo Lilith has gone into labour a whole week before she's due but I think that's normal for multiple pregnancy but no less scary as she freaks at the pain and wails into my shoulder.She labours in bed, standing up and even in the shower.The whole time crying for Lora, feeling as if she might be replacing her with the children coming out from within her tummy.Sadness fills the room and the three of us did not enjoy the birth process at all.Our sons entered the world screaming loudly, clearing their lungs within minutes of each other and though Theo and I wanted to c
Lilith's POVDane is adamant that Damian isn't dead and equally as adamant that I can use my memory to summon where his whereabouts.Apparently the witch side of me can teleport, and that's a given because I have done before but never have I teleported to a person specifically, only a place.But the more I think about it, the more it makes sense.Of course it does, if I can summon a place, then I can summon a person, right?I just have to practice, apparently. It still astounds me how much he knows about me when most know nothing about me at all.And it just so happens that I feel closest to him out of anyone I've met.I'm having a bad day today, pain is radiating along my back, a sharp stabbing pain accompanying it whenever I stand for to long.I think it's the twins, my boys that are currently safe within me.I miss Lora.I miss Calley.Heck, I even miss Lucas.I can only hope that one of them with with my baby girl, that they are doing everything in their power to protect her from
Hati's POVA further two and a half weeks have passed as we live in this humid and small place in hipster being on top of one another. My men have broken all the agreements I even made with Gretchen, her witches becoming the slaves they are used to which had disfavoured the respect the witch have held for me. But needs must and all that.Even I and finding it hard not to play outside of Belle.Take yesterday for example.Calley had been caring for the child as she has been for over two weeks, ensuring Lorrie remains quiet and happy to limit the time the child spends with Belle.I'm not stupid and I had noticed how she would try to prevent any crying coming from Lorrie.The child has grown far quicker than I thought possible, her growth excelled.She's standing against furniture, giggling and eating some solids, but that's just a trigger for me.I've told Calley she must feed from Belle and she's purposely ignoring my request. Ensuring Lorrie skipped three feeding sessions yesterday.
Theo’s POVThe days have passed in unimaginable pain as I mourn the theft of my child, and I also watch my mates do the same thing.I feel like an utter failure, and as I sit and ponder the reality I then realise I lost my best friend, beta and Calley and Arlo in one foul swoop.How did such a thing happen so easily?Especially when we trained to prevent such a thing.Even Danes members failed miserably and he’s travelling here today, his communication less than moody.I’ve been sitting alone in my office pondering life and the atrocities that have amounted to this very day and I see all of my failures. Can count them precisely.I suppose that’s why I’m avoiding everyone.What type of Alpha fails his people?!My computer pings with an email, giving me a welcome distraction as I jump out of my own mind to concentrate on something other than the trashy surrounding me.It’s Dane, he’s crossing the border. Warning me incase the pack decide to attack.I feel awful, despite being down two t
Three Weeks Later Hati's POVWeeks pass as we adjust to living here below the burned pack-land of Leo.I cannot believe he's still alive, but then again what more can I expect from these peasants and their ability to slip through my fingers?The child, Lora. Or Lorrie as we've been calling her has settle very nicely. She's sitting by herself now, rolling around and has become very content within this smaller pack of mine, and everyone loves her. Worshiping their lunar even in this childish stage of her life.And the girl, Calley, keeps a very close eye on her.That day was quite something when we tied our blood in a bonding agreement."Eko, eko, azarak. Eko, eko, zomelak. Bagabi lacha bachabe, Lamac cahi achababe. Eko, eko, azarak. Eko, eko, zomelak," Gretchen had changed as she created the bond that would be undeniable."Repeat after me, girl. I, fill name, solemnly swear to bind my blood with Hati in agreement for servitude. Bonding our blood forever more as I lay my life down at
