Oooh! Go Morgan! She has a pretty scarey gift! What will happen next? Will Hunji have his day and kill Farid? Will Morgan and Hunji leave together or seperately? I hope you have enjoyed the story so far please leave me a comment with your thoughts and drop me a gem if you enjoyed the chapters.
HUNJI/KIAN How many times can I walk away from her? As many as it takes, I tell myself. The look in her beautiful violet eyes cut me deep. I knew what she wanted, our souls grasping for each other, my wolf pining to hold her, kiss her. But I couldn’t. She was safe, that had to be enough. I wanted to tell her how proud I was of her, how her gift was spectacular. How when I saw her leading an army of dead, I felt nothing but pride and love for my little witch as I watched her end the battle single-handedly. The confident way she walked, arms out, palms out with her head held high. Those violet eyes glowing against her pale complexion – She was the most beautiful creature I had ever seen, she moved with grace and poise, easily directing her army of ghosts. She was commanding but ethereal, Dangerous but enchanting -a goddess. My body came alive. A flush of warmth spread through my body, my dick reacting at the sight of his little witch as my eyes roamed her spellbinding curves that I
HUNJI / KIAN The room is dark and cold. I can just make out my father’s frail figure in his bed as I move deeper into his chambers. I hear a gasp behind me and turn to see my sister Sonia with eyes full of tears, clutching her child. A son. “Sonia,” I turn to her and cup her cheek peering into her familiar dark brown eyes. She looks frail and worn. Farid had kept his promise, she was unhurt but he had kept her hidden away and thankfully hadn't touched her or her child. Maybe there was some compassion in him somewhere deep down. “I have missed you, and I want nothing more than to sit with you and Rostam and to get to know my family again,” My eyes turn to the small child in her arms who looks so much like Rostam. “But I need you to leave, give us time alone with father, your son does not need to see this.” Through her glazed eyes I see the defiance I remember so much, but she nods her head and looks to Rostam who stands beside her. “Sonia, my love, everything will be ok now. Our br
MORGAN I finally find Kian in the hall of law, standing in front of the humongous stone epitaph. His back is to me, and I know he senses my presence. I cannot see his expression when he speaks but I can feel the raw emotion in every word. “This is why I love my Queen. Lamia. I admire her. She doesn’t run from fate, she embraces it – despite whether she agrees with the gods or not she doesn’t make rules to suit her own needs, she makes them to protect her people. All races. The weak the vulnerable, the good, the bad. And even the ugly. She doesn’t discriminate and believes we all should flourish. She will never shy away from a fight, and she will always stick up for the little people. She is justice in the flesh with a heart as pure as light.” I draw closer and slide my hands around his waist pressing my face to his back and relishing in his warmth. He doesn’t move away like I thought he would and I take it as a win. Despite what he believes and thinks – I have fallen for this wolf.
HUNJI/KIAN ERIRIAT (STILL 3 WEEKS LATER) With a heavy heart and an empty soul, I sit on the throne. In less than two hours this place will be packed with wolves from all over the Kingdom, from Lord Alphas to members of the court and some high-standing citizens. Not to exclude the surrounding country’s Alphas and leaders from other shifter Clans. Even Tristan ScarClaw had received an invitation and had made his way here, arriving only a short few days ago with the werebear Gregorio as his companion. I stood from the throne, a sigh of ease blowing past my lips as I vacated the seat. No matter how many times I had sat in it these past weeks it still didn’t feel right. These past three weeks my thoughts had been filled with Morgan and also Tawny. Of course, there was much more I mulled through my brain, like my family back in the western continent who I had not heard from. Even Lamia hadn’t linked me, and I wasn’t sure how to feel about that. Was she upset or just giving me the time, I
HUNJI/KIAN The door stood open, and I was propped against the frame, I couldn’t bring myself to enter my old room. Too many memories of a time I thought I had it all. A time I thought I had found happiness only for my reason to feel happy to tear it all away. There were no scents in this room, even though it looked the same as the last time I had been here. So, all I had were the conjured memories that were flitting within my head as I looked into my old room. Farid had said Divya willingly spread her legs for him. He wasn’t lying, I could tell. I sensed he was telling me the truth and took great satisfaction that he hadn’t had to coerce her to betray me. When a mate betrays their fated, it does something to a man. It makes them doubt their worth and skills as a man. I wondered for years if I wasn’t a good enough lover; if my size was inadequate if there was something I lacked for Divya to stray as she did. When I was whipped, beaten, and left for dead, Revenge was what kept me aliv
HUNJI/KIAN “What the shit Hunji!” Tawny sits there, a baffled look on her face, eyes pried open wide and her mouth still hanging open from when I first started telling her everything that has happened since I arrived at the second continent to now. From finding Kellen to Asena and Ashe, my oath, my family, and everything in between. Well, almost. I had purposely left out fucking Morgan and she had imprinted on me - that I had given into temptation. We had taken a walk, just the two of us. Currently, we were sitting by a fountain in the middle of a terrace, lush greenery and exotic flowers filled the area giving it a bright but peaceful feel. She had listened with interest and intent. I was telling her more than anyone else and it felt easy talking to her, comfortable. Ruda had taken a back seat, content to be around the little kitty. I think he had missed her too. “So, I have to ask, why are you here? I mean, don’t get me wrong I love to see you and I can’t explain how happy I am to
ASENA When the human race became extinct – leaving less of their species than there were shifters – the high councils on each continent came together to decide what we could still save and what we couldn’t. There weren’t enough shifters realm-wide to keep up productivity and maintain most industries. So, things like flying contraptions became antiques. Mobile phone companies shut down in the east whereas they adopted and adapted the technology in the west. Things like movies and television shows stopped producing. Yet you could still buy TVs and movies that were hundreds of years old and were redistributed through the internet they maintained. While one continent’s fashion reverted backward the other kept their textile industries going and progressing to invent items like Lamia’s suit. The west rebuilt cities, the east let them crumble long ago, going back to more basic ways of life yet still maintaining a grip on modern sciences. There had not been a war for the realm for a thousan
MORGAN 3 MONTHS LATER I had settled into the Kodiak Kingdom, finding my place in the Clan Mansion. I had taken on helping Ria with the day-to-day activities in not only the mansion but the surrounding villages. Xander and Ria had even taken me to Lonely City, a place with buildings that touched the sky and had more races in one place than anywhere I had ever heard of. Xander, King Mathias’s other younger brother, told me that the Kingdom MacTire was even more mixed and had the strongest army that this realm would ever see. That was where Alpha Travis ruled after Queen Lamia had won the battle of Riocht. I experienced my first bar and intoxication while in Lonely City and I don’t think I will ever drink again after that night. Actually, while I was drinking wasn’t so bad, it was the morning after when I woke up feeling like a corpse that made me swear to never drink again. Finn had gone crazy when we got home threatening to rip Xander’s head off because of the state I was in. I hav

JONDA A PROLOGUE TO: THE BETA AND JEWEL THIEF - BOOK 6 I left the Kodiak Kingdom early today, not wanting to outstay my welcome. I was disappointed but not surprised that Morgan couldn’t reverse the curse. I had hoped to gain my wolf fully. They say you can’t miss what you never had, but that’s an outright lie. I had a wolf, one that was bound inside me, one that was there but I couldn’t communicate with her. I couldn’t shift and I couldn’t use her abilities. I was almost as good as human. I was faster than a human, had better hearing, and healed better than a human could. But I wasn’t a shifter, not even close. I longed for the day I could meet my wolf and shift. Run through the forest and feel the wind in her fur. It never bothered me as much as it has since I met Mike. The Royal Beta to the werewolf kingdom. I know we weren’t fated mates, if we were then he and his wolf would know. But that didn’t stop us from falling in love. He wanted to take me as his chosen mate, and I want
HUNJI/KIAN I leap into the thick of the battle, swords drawn, roaring out a battle cry as I do. The edge of my blade slices the first challenger that dares to attack. I turn, cutting down one enemy after the other, the human scents and scents of a foreign pack determining who is friend, and who is foe. Though there are not many wolves amongst the Kodiak Clan so they are easier to spot. I hear the crack of a whip behind me the sound of dirt bikes rushing to where I’m fighting, gaining my attention. They get closer and I bend at the knee. Holding my swords out and cutting the rider’s legs on either side of me. The whooshing sound of something heavy moving through the air, has me looking up where an identical net to the one they had Finn under, flies above my head. My arm moves, drawing my sword vertically. I dash forward and watch with amazement as the tip of the blade meets the blanket of poison. A red hue emanates from the steel as if it just came fresh from the fires of a forge.
MORGAN Three days ago, we left for the Kodiak Kingdom. Kian, Tobias, Finn a dozen warriors ran beside the convoy as an insurance to make sure we weren’t ambushed again. Thankfully we weren’t. It was nice being back here at the Clan Mansion. However, unlike before this didn’t feel like home. When I first arrived in the Kodiak Kingdom, I thought this would be my home. That I would never see my stubborn wolfman again. How quickly that notion changed – For the better. I didn’t ever think I would be this happy, or that my life would turn out this good at the beginning of our journey. It started out rocky between Kian and I. Truth is I thought he was the biggest unemotional and detached shifter I had ever met. Slowly, or as slowly a few weeks would allow, I caved to his quiet and brooding charm. I thank the gods every day that we somehow found our way to each other. If I hadn’t of gone to Riocht, I wonder if Kian would have ever come looking for me. Or if his insecurities would have ke
MORGAN 2 WEEKS LATER “Are you ready?” I ask my brother. Finn nods his head, a look of apprehension. I squeeze his hand offering comfort and subtly conveying to him there was nothing to fear. This was the first time he would be witnessing me call our mother forth, the first time he will have seen her in years. For me, it was normal. I had been calling our mother forth for years. If not for my own reasons, then because our father, Orion demanded speaking to her. Whenever Orion came back to Andora, it’s what he always asked of me. Sometimes he would talk to my mother for hours, sometimes it was only for a few minutes. But the conversation was always the same: Orion crying and saying how sorry he was. A tear slipped down my cheek as I recalled the night he killed her, and all the conversations over all the years I had been privy to witness. I calmed my inner emotions, steadied my breathing, and spoke the words out loud “As it shall be from the heavens, let it be from the depths. From
HUNJI/KIAN A thunderous growl reverberates throughout the palace, shaking the walls. Followed by one just as loud and resonating. I leap out of bed where I had been cuddled up with Morgan, grabbing a pair of shorts and throwing them on as I stumbled to the door. “What the heck was that?” My little witch asks, her voice wavering from the booming roars. At the same time Tobias pushes a mind-link through *Hunji, get the fuck out here, King and Finn are going at it* “Fuck,” I grumble, flinging the door open “Stay here!” I tell Morgan not wanting her to be in the middle of this. More growls ring out, again shaking the walls. I rush towards the North side of the building using my shifter speed but stop when a loud crashing noise steals my attention. I look over the balcony to see two bears come barreling through the wall of Mathias’ office. “They are going to kill each other!” I hear Tobias who is on the opposite side of the palace, also looking down. In the center courtyard, Mathias
FINNEGAN ARTOS Walking through the infirmary doors, the smell of disinfectant, medicines, and sickness assault my beast’s senses. I shake my head in an attempt to block the insulting and saturating scents. The only reason I stayed here overnight was to be with my sister, Morgan. I had only just gotten her back. Being reunited with her - the last time I had seen her was almost three years ago. The last time I was in Andora with our sick twisted father. I found Xander’s room and gently knocked on the door. I could smell that Ria was already in there. She had been by her mate’s side for the past week. That’s how long it had been since the attack, and we were no closer to finding the culprits than we were that night. Mathias was being a little bitch. He still didn’t trust me. Not that I can really blame him. I did poison his mate with silver dust, hold a knife to her throat and grope her in front of him. Not my finest moment. “Come in” I hear the soft sound of Ria’s voice. A human tu
HUNJI/KIAN The sweet scent of honeysuckle invaded my senses as soon as I reached the south wing, heading to my room to get washed up. Walking into the bathroom Morgan’s scent engulfed me. I couldn’t help but chuckle knowing Lamia had placed her in the room adjoined to my bathroom on purpose. I washed and changed quickly, in a hurry to see Morgan. There was no more internal argument. No more debating. No more what-ifs. Morgan was mine. I could no longer deny the pull to her. No longer deny my feelings. The past three months of being away from her have been torture. There’s no forgetting my little witch. She’s embedded in my soul. A part of me that will never be erased. I walked past everyone in the dining room, ignoring their presence and making a beeline to the balcony where I could sense her. I stopped in my tracks as I caught a glance of her in the simple but sheer red dress – my favorite color and it looked damn good on her. The fabric clung to every curve of her luscious body.
MORGAN Sometime in the middle of the day, I woke up with a throbbing head. I lifted my hand to feel where the thudding pain was coming from, feeling a good-sized knot on the back of my head. Man, whatever they hit me with did a real number. My next thought went to my brother, and I began panicking. I didn’t know what the outcome of the fight was. Was Finn, okay? What about Ria and Xander? I remember seeing, hearing, and feeling the explosions as well as hearing several screams. I was alone in the room and climbed out of bed to go look for someone. I wasn’t even sure where I was but had deduced that I was in some sort of infirmary. I couldn’t have been that injured because I was still in the same clothes. I open the door to find a hallway that ran left and right. Instincts had me turning right and I swiftly began to move down the long corridor. “Morgan!” I turned on my heel quickly at the sound of my brother’s voice. “Finn!” I yelled, the very sight of him alleviating my panic. And
