What do you think about her inclusion focus? Don't forget that Lunas love those gems that expire at the end of the month.
GRANTAngel was spending time with Mom to learn Luna duties.She did have a good point that my brother and I were raised, knowing that we would become Alphas. We were trained since we were pups in how to run a pack. That did not mean that we were truly ready or anything.Dad became Alpha when he was eighteen when his own father was killed. It was supposedly because of a rogue attack but turned out that it was one of many traitors that the pack had back in the day. Identifying and handling traitors was actually one of our biggest Alpha lessons.Gabriel and I knocked on Dad’s office door. It swung open to reveal Uncle Apollo. He gave us a regal wave to enter the office. He was one of our favorite uncles. Uncle Dante was number one, but Uncle Apollo was a very close second.“Welcome, Alphas. Come on in. We’ve got gifts,” Dad said, putting his arms behind his head and leaning back in his chair. We flopped down in the chairs that sat in front of his desk. Our uncle poured two glasses of w
ANGEL Kalen called me to see if I was free. Apparently, she desperately needed my help with something. It sounded urgent, so I told her to come over at any point. I was playing with Rose when I heard my name being called. I got up and held my hand out for Rose. Sol’s mark started heating up when I got closer to Kalen and Maddox. I could see an aura around them that clearly denoted darkness. “Who is this cutie?” Kalen asked as she crouched down in font of Rose, who shyly blushed. “This is my cousin’s daughter, Rose. They just moved to the pack so that Anthony can help train me. He ended up finding his mate here too. Okay, little one. Let’s get back to Daddy. I think he’s with my mates.” Kalen placed a kiss to the top of Rose’s head, causing her to giggle. Then I grabbed her hand in mine and swung our arms as we walked. I had so many damn questions that would have to wait to be asked until we were alone. It had come as a shock when we came to find out the truth about where Kalen
GABRIEL We were currently in one of the conference rooms, waiting for Axel, Darius, and Ryker to join us. Aria agreed with our picks for Lamias. Now, it was just up to them to decide if they wished to join our leadership upon the induction ceremonies. We decided that Aria should be inducted at that time as well despite the fact that she still had a year. We really did not care one damn bit. It would be all of us or none of us. Angel was sitting on my lap. We were flanked by Grant, Zade, and Aria. Then our pack’s current leadership was also here to offer their support. Brianna, Tinsley, and Bronx had been fucking amazing additions to this pack’s leadership. They were the very first Lamias ever blessed by the Goddess. There was a knock on the door, and Uncle Apollo walked over to open the door. Then he moonwalked back to his spot next to his Alpha. That was where Zade got his personality from. It set the three newcomers at ease. “Take a seat if you dare,” Angel said, steepling her f
ANGEL I had been stuck in my head since I woke up. The dream that I had was amazing. - The summer sun was shining down on me as I was unloading a picnic basket. Grant dropped down behind me and kissed his mark. I felt him smile against my skin when we heard two sets of giggles. Gabriel was chasing two small pups through the grass. The little boy looked just like my mates, and the little girl looked just like me. They could not have been older than three. “Mama, Little Alpha Emerson won the race against Little Alpha Mia. They’re going to race again after lunch,” Gabriel declared. Grant and I clapped our hands as our pups came rushing over and jumping on us. - It felt so real. I was not certain if it was just a dream though. If those were our future pups, it looked like we would not wait very long before getting pregnant. There were many factors that would play into the right timing though. We still had school, would be taking over the pack soon, and had an upcoming war to worry
GRANT Dahlia had reached out to our parents regarding the information that we had gathered from Maxine when Angel interrogated her. Dahlia had originally told us that she would get back to us when she had something concrete to relay. Apparently, she found something concrete. Our parents sat down with Gabriel, Angel, and I so that they could relay what information had been gathered. Apparently, Maxine was being honest when it came to who got told about our pack. We had already altered the patrol schedules after interrogating her. Nightshade was already a beacon for those who sought power. Even before the Supernatural Council came into play, our pack was already one that drew idiots to it, seeking what was never theirs in the first place. The good news was that it took a while, but Dahlia was able to track down the Río de Fuego pack’s location. It took a lot of fucking effort, but she was able to hack into their pack’s server. That gave her a sneak peek into everything. Josef was th
ANGEL We were up early this morning because we wanted to make sure everything was in order. My mates went over to check on the rooms at the secondary packhouse while I made sure that the welcome breakfast was all set up in the convention center. Some of Shadow Falls, Dark Moon, and Coverstone would be joining us along with those we knew would be willing to fight with us from our pack. Something that I had always appreciated was how helpful everyone was with one another. Our packs and covens always had each other’s back. It was like the Three Musketeers – all for one and one for all. Elle and Mom were both helping organize everything. They had always been close because they came here from the same pack. Elle was younger than Mom and Dad, but that never stopped them from becoming close. She had actually saved Dad’s life one time. Look at where we were now. Our two families were forever entwined now. Kalen had called me up last night and asked if it was okay to bring someone special
JAXONMy life had been one rollercoaster after another ever since I found out the truth of who and what I was.Mom was the sweetest person that you could have ever met. She was a unique type of witch who had access to powerful spirit magic. Not all who died moved onto the spirit realm within the realms of their creators and instead walked the Earth behind a normally invisible veil. Those who wielded her type of magic could see beyond that veil.Unfortunately, she died when I was fourteen. She was killed, but I never figured out who did it. After her death, I found a letter that she had written to me. In it, she told me the truth of who and what I was. Apparently, she knew who Hades was when they started their brief love affair. The source of spirit magic came from him. I wholeheartedly trusted Mom and knew that she would never lie to me, especially about something as important as this. I was Hades’ son. It had taken me a long time to wrap my head around what that meant.The most import
GRANTI was so damn proud of Angel. She captured everyone’s attention while she explained the situation to the room as a whole. It was direct and laid out the risks when it came to fighting but also when it came to not fighting. All in all, the Río de Fuego pack was a threat that we could not overlook.In the end, almost everyone signed up as fighters. Some were not fit to fight for whatever reason but still wanted to help out.This whole mate situation was absolutely amazing to witness. There ended up being a total of thirty mate-bonds snapping into place. Twelve of them were from the Danes pack. Seven of those were within Nightshade. Three were with Shadow Falls, and two were with Dark Moon. Jaxon and Sansa were another one.The rest were between our various packs. There were apparently quite a few who just turned eighteen because I knew some of them attended the academy together or visited the different packs during warrior rotations. Our packs often rotated warriors for a couple of
To all of my amazing readers,I want to send out my deepest gratitude for all of your support with not only “Fated to the Alpha’s – Chased by Chaos” but also the rest of the books within the Fated Universe. The beginning of “Fated Rejection – Fated Claim” had been a brief brush stroke that continued until something much bigger evolved. Each new character, each new journey, and each new struggle painted even more depth.The moment that Elle held an infant Angel in her arms was the moment that I realized what her fate would end up being. It took patience to get us to the point where their journey would begin, but it was worth the wait. I was thrilled with the amazing support that I found within each comment, each like, each gem, and each word of encouragement.The introduction of Caiathus in the first book was really the first crack that hit the wall between the supernatural species. I knew then that the Fated Universe would not be complete unless it paid homage to the diversity within t
VIOLETI stood at the cliff’s edge and watched as the sun peeked over the horizon, painting the sky a plethora of colors. It normally signified the beginning of a new day, but today it signified a possible beginning of the end.Life had not been easy. There was always a fight occurring. It was Mom fighting for us in the beginning. Then it was me fighting for my sister once Mom was gone. Now, it was me fighting for them both.It was crazy to think about how much my life had changed since that night – the night when I learned the truth.I once heard someone say, ‘people can’t change the truth, but the truth can change people.’ That quote stuck with me because it was simplistic yet had an unmistakable depth to it as well. The truth really did change me. Not only did I find out that a mere human was precisely what I was not, but I also found out that Mom didn’t actually die two years ago. Nope. She was betrayed by her husband and given over to a group of sadistic assholes who hunted supern
BLAKELYI had always prided myself on my strength, just like many of those from Alpha blood did. However, I felt anything but strong lately.It was ironic that all it took was someone who was supposed to be my soulmate to destroy what I had once thought were the best parts of who Blakely Ayla Rosenthall was.Not everything was Kol’s fault. I was fully aware of that, but it did not change the way my heart was breaking a little more each time something like this happened.My wings propelled me from the ground, leaving behind a guilt-ridden Kol. My eyes burned as tears filled them. They could not be contained no matter how hard I tried to keep them at bay.His words rang in my head, bouncing around like a cannonball set to destroy everything in its path.‘What a selfish fucking whore you are. All you care about is yourself. I don’t fucking need you and would be better off without you.’It was the work of an internal binding that we had yet to find a reversal for. Its magic always took hol
EMERSONIt had been a year since we took our posts as Nightshade’s leadership. While I would love to say that it had always been smooth sailing, that would be a damn lie.Six months ago, we had another pack issue an official challenge. It was not a common thing to do but did occasionally occur. Instead of infiltrating a pack, Alphas could technically challenge for a pack instead. You had the right to decline, but that would make it appear to other packs that you were weak.Instead of challenging me, they went after Mia, believing that she would be the easier opponent. They were, of course, mistaken. Mia and I were right on par with each other. The fucker cheated and got some wolfsbane into her. Thankfully, she inherited Mom’s affinity for light and used it to burn the wolfsbane off. She ended up winning the challenge, which then invalidated the claim to his own pack.It was a damn good thing that he had challenged her because his pack was suffering underneath his leadership. People wer
MIAI was incredibly thankful that Atlas came to find me when I had run away from him. A coward, that was what I had been and needed to escape before I fell completely apart. That would not be something that I could come back from…To know he actually craved me in the same way that I craved him was absolutely invigorating. It was liberating too.I had always harbored a secret crush on Atlas. Our parents were very close, so we grew up together. He had always been that bright soul who made sure everyone was taken care of. He would go out of his way to ensure that people were happy. Goddess, he was innately empathetic just like his mother. He was also a warrior just like his father.Ryker, his father, had been someone that my parents always admired because he did not know the meaning of the word quit. Many people had thought he would fail as a warrior simply because he was human, but he told them to sit back and watch him shine. He did not become a warrior only because my parents inducted
GRANT(Five years following Epilogue 2)Goddess, it felt like yesterday when my brother and I were experiencing this day ourselves. It was one that we had both looked forward to and dreaded at the same time. Our eighteenth birthday – the day when we could scent our mate, came with a set of complex emotions.We had been in love with Angel for years prior to that day. We had decided that we would finally open up to her and share our hearts while praying that she was receptive to it all.We had always been confident guys, knowing who we were to our family, our friends, and our pack. However, we had both been insecure when it came to Angel because she was our dream, and one that we had desperately wished to come true. We had been afraid of facing any kind of rejection when it came to her because Angel was it for us.The day that we turned eighteen turned out to be one of the highlights of our life because we were granted our deepest desire. We were granted our completion.Life had its ups
ANGEL(8 years after Epilogue 1)Today was going to be a great day! It was Mia and Emerson’s thirteenth birthday party.This was one of two big pack-wide birthday celebrations for our heirs. The next would be when they turned eighteen just like we had done when my boys had turned eighteen.Goddess, it felt like a lifetime ago when I had taken the cowardly way out and avoided their party all because I was terrified that they would find a mate that was not me. I had shed so many tears over a possible reality, which turned out to be wasted because they had always been mine with, or without, a fated mate-bond.It felt just like yesterday when the bonds snapped into place.Many people have asked me what it was like to have two mates. It was a difficult concept for some people to wrap their heads around. It was different for us because the three of us had always been inseparable. We were an efficient team. So, the transition was seamless because we were the same as we had always been but wit
GABRIEL(Five years later)Life was one hell of a rollercoaster. That was the best way to explain it.Our leadership had all been nervous as fuck to step into our roles, but it was the utmost honor to be given the chance to serve our people. It was something that we never took for granted.Nightshade flourished quite a bit over the past five years.The programs that we began had made quite an impact. There was a lot of excitement about the warrior program that began earlier. There was a huge turnout in year one. Each subsequent year gained even more popularity. Ryker was the one to spearhead the program, and we were incredibly proud of what he was able to accomplish.The ambassador program that we developed was actually picked up by allied packs because they saw the usefulness of it. Angel had developed a course that walked leaderships through how to create their own program for it. Just like everything she touched, the course became gold.The trade school was a booming part to our pac
Please Read:There are a couple of things that I would like to share with you.First of all, I want to thank everyone for their support of the Fated Universe – The Fated Series, Dark Moon Series, Legacies of Fate Series, and the Legacies of Destiny Series. There has been an overwhelming reader base who have been with these characters since the beginning of Kade and Elle’s journey in ‘Fated Rejection – Fated Claim.’Secondly, after a lot of deliberation, I have decided that the upcoming books within the Fated Universe, such as ‘Fated Bonds – Caught in a Web of Secrets’ and ‘Destined Bonds – The Hybrid Prince and His Little Witch’ will be moving over to R E A M. That is still in the works, but I will keep you updated on it all. A lot of cool things will happen over there. This includes ongoing books, bonus chapters that feature our favorite characters from the Fated Universe, character fact sheets, inside looks into upcoming works, and more.I know that many of you have been eager for Gr
