Vines appear through the snow, despite the terrain and gasps come from the wolves surrounding him. Within just a few seconds vines have wrapped his legs and arms, making him completely immobile. I don’t let me guard down yet though, and I see that my mate has the same thought.
Codyn is now standing defensively in front of Scarlyt who has her hands out, no doubt thinking she would have to once again heal her mate. Oryn moved faster than I even realized and was in the same stance as Codyn in front of me. I gently stepped to the side of him, but not in front of him and addressed the wolves.
“We are not your enemy,” I boom out this time, using every ounce of my Authority.
“We are not Kayden, we are not here to make yo

Hey hey, I just want to warn you the first few chapters are set up. Character introductions and history that I oringinally had spread throughout the book but it disturbed the flow so I organized it to be at the beginning. I hope you enjoy the book! Prologue --------17 years ago------ { Kyda } “I won’t say I told you so.” I rolled my eyes inwardly and visibly. I knew that this conversation was coming since the event that morning. “You had no way of truly knowing before today. It was just a hope you had, purely speculation,” I retorted. “I knew, and now you know. And since we both know, it is time to make decisions,” my mother replied calmly. I released a sigh I'd been holding in all morning and rubbed my eyes with my thumbs. I knew she was right. As much as I want to shield Ne
Haven: Rise of Luna Prophecy
{ Vynetta } “Vynetta Okeanos, what have I told you about wind storms in the garden? My carrots have not had peace in 17 years.” “Sorry Mama!” I called out from the kitchen. The truth was that that particular wind storm was an accident. I was attempting to create a small whirlwind inside a cup, hoping for a similar effect of a blender. My latest practice had been precision of my abilities. However if the small tornado that ransacked my mother’s garden was any indication, I needed more practice. “Do you need help out here?” I asked as I entered the green house. “No love, I can handle it. Thankfully the structure was not damaged this time, only lost vegetables to gather. You are lucky that they are ripe or I would have your head.” Mama replied. I gulped. Knowing how true that statement was. “I am sorry Mama, I contained it for

{ Vynetta } The future of the earth…. Those last words that grandmother spoke held more weight to me than the entire story she just told. Because that was the reality of what I was up against, that was the reality of what was at stake. The fate of this planet. Whether they receive peace and a hopeful future or whether they remain under tyranny and I am forced to supply the heir to continue that tyranny. I heard my grandmother exhale and I knew she was waiting for me to speak. I just didn’t know which question to ask first. I replayed the entire story, the entire prophecy in my mind. Then it hit me, I knew what I wanted to ask. “ I need no medicine, ever. My bones that I broke on occasion as a child healed within a day. Cuts and scrapes are scarred over in a matter of minutes. I sleep 6 hours and feel more rested than you or mother do when you sleep 10.” I tu

I was taken aback by this sudden move of his, it was an act of a subject, not a friend and I would never ask that of him. “Gabryl, please get up. Why have you suddenly bowed? And why have you called me Luna?” By this time my mother and grandmother had rounded the corner into the room and were taking in the scene in front of them. Their faces held as much shock as mine did seeing Gabryl on his knees before me. “Gabryl, speak to me please, you are beginning to worry me.” It was only then that he looked up at me, when I met his eyes I saw admiration, I saw loyalty, and I saw the love of a man who was like a father to me. His eyes were wet and as suddenly as he had bowed, he was on his feet and engulfed me in a hug. “My sweet Netta, I can’t believe it is time. You are so beautiful, so grown, so powerful.” He spoke softly as he held me at arms reach looking me over.

{ Kyda } When Gabryl released his aura, I was stunned. I had known this man all my life, he had been around since my mother was young, and neither she nor I were aware of how powerful he was. In hind sight, it made sense. He was the guardian of one of the original supernatural bloodlines. He had to be more powerful than anything or anyone who could potentially show up at the door step. When Vynetta told him he looked no different, both mother and I glanced at each other. I wasn’t surprised she could see past his concealment, but I was surprised she had never shared that fact with either of us. “Did you know that Netta knew how powerful Gabryl was?” I asked her as we walked away from the training room. “No, she never spoke a word to me.” She spoke to me but her eyes were off on the distance. She had known Gabryl much longer than me, and I was concerned the shock of this would affec

{ Vynetta } A week passed turned into a day before I could blink. The past few days have been filled with revelations I hardly wanted to live through from the mother, grandmother and Gabryl. I sitting along the cove, enjoying the peace of nature for what I was worried would be the last time when I heard someone clear their throat behind me. I didn’t have to look up to know who it was. “What do you want Gabe?” He huffed, “Are you sassy because tomorrow is your last day without a tail?” I rolled my eyes. He could try to make it as light as he wanted but I couldn’t let go of the anchor that was dragging me down. “The tail is the least of my worries right now.” “Netta, in all the time I have known you, which is 17 years, I have never seen you go so long without smiling and it is concerning me. I know you are facing changes, choices and extremely large
Haven: Rise of Luna Juno
{ Prym } It was one hour until midnight. Tonight being a full moon, I had a suspicion that her connection with the Moon Goddess would be strongest when the moon was at its highest point. I hadn’t shared this suspicion with anyone, but we had all seemed to come to a similar conclusion that this would happen in the beginning of her birthday as opposed to the end. “I knew I would find you out here.” I smiled at the sweet voice I knew so well.” “Of course my dear, you always know where to find me it seems.” I replied. “What are you collecting?” Vynetta asked? “Well, that basket by your feet near the water is full of herbs, pain and heat reducers just in case you need them. I don’t even know if they would help, but I will make them into a tea in case you need it. And now I am doing something which I haven’t run by Gabryl or Kyda, but I feel will be ess

“I love you,” she said out loud as she kissed my jaw. “Baby, you are my everything,” I told her breathlessly. “I can’t imagine my life without you, I would still be so lost.” I moved inside her and she moaned at the sensation. I chuckled as I pulled myself out of her and got a towel to clean her. She laid there with one hand on her hip and the other above her head and I felt myself already getting hard again. I handed her a towel and she smiled to me, cleaning herself off. I watched her carefully and something occurred to me. “Baby, how do you feel about kids?” She glanced up at me and the sweetest smile grew on her face as she said, “I want them.” “Lots of them?” “I think so, yeah. I was an only child because that was the way our bloodline worked but that isn’t the case anymore so I’d love to have a house full of babies. Little us’s.” She giggled

{ Carolyn }I felt a rush of cold as I used the snow to disappear and go back to our cabin. My little snow portal settled to the ground around me and I shook off what remained. I looked ahead and really took in the cabin I called home.It’s logs were cut from the woods that surrounded us. My mother was an incredible woman. She was handy, sweet, she could cook up a storm in the kitchen and she somehow managed to raise five little witches all by herself. We all knew we were a handful, our powers grew each day yet she took it all in and managed to make us disciplined and precise, she taught us the value of our magic and the value of life around us. She told us often the story of Luna, her eyes always holding hope when she did of one day not having to hide, one day allowing us to live a free life.My heart was racing as I stepped closer and I was bombarded with sweet memories. Our life here was quiet and ca

{ Vynetta } As Oryn was shaking hands with the Elders I felt it. As quick as Juno and I registered it it was gone. An aura in the mountains near us. A man, a hybrid Juno said, but having only sensed it for a moment she struggled to determine his origin. He was an original without a doubt, he was also strong, and clearly hidden. I hadn’t sensed him during the meeting of all the wolves and he was already long gone by the feel of things. I stretched, searched, my eyes remaining closed as I forced out mine and Juno’s power as far as I could. I heard the sound of my mate’s voice but I was deep in concentration and couldn’t make out the words he said. Finally Juno heaved a deep sigh and assured me that the mysterious aura was in fact gone, leaving us with more questions than answers. I took a deep breath and opened my eyes to the sight of a very distraught mate. I felt a small smile on my face as I took my hands out and place
Haven: Rise of Luna Elders
“I think your mate was a tad distracted and didn’t hear quite everything,” One of the elder wolves says. Well shit, I Wasn’t only busted by my mate this time either. I clear my throat as a small blush creeps up my neck but I shake it off. If there is anything I will always own up to its the way my mate affects me. “You would be right, I am easily enthralled by her beauty and her voice,” I admit to the elder wolf who gives me a sly smile. “I was telling them about how we are mostly done here….” Vynetta tells me softly, giving me the cue to pick up after that. That’s all I needed. “Yes, thank you all for your patience and your kindness again.” One of the wolves covers a laugh with a cough and now I’m positive that Vynetta already said that same thing so I continue while shaking it off, “We look forward to seeing all of you next week in your own territories with more good news. As of right now,

I immediately held out my hand and called out, “Scarlyt will you please come here.”She gently made her way through the crowd and after her first few steps they seemed to realize she was the one I was calling to and made a path for her. She crossed the snow giving a soft smile to her mate who sighed a breath of relief. I made a mental note to apologize to him for not calling her back to us sooner.She stood next to me and took my hand in hers. I felt the power of our pack work through us as she was my Mona. I turned my head back to the wolves in front of me and most had their eyes narrowed At Scarlyt trying to figure out why they sensed she was different.Release your aura, all of it. I told her in Mindlink.She did as she was told. Her aura held power, but it was not overwhelming in the least. What her aura held more than anything, was proof. And it washed over the wolves in one sweep an

{ Vynetta }The moment that my aura reached the furthest corner of the tundra and the wolves all boomed out respectfully I felt an insurmountable pride radiate from Juno within. Everything had been nothing short of chaos recently and while I knew who I was, and what was coming, this was the first time I ever felt like what I was, a queen. Looking over thousands of wolves who awaited the right words, the right orders was intimidating, but having my mate beside me lowered my anxiety greatly.His aura washed over me and his scent wrapped itself around me once again as my knees went weak, Goddess what that scent alone does to me. I watched him carefully as he nodded gratefully to the wolves to stand and then I gave him my full attention as I waited for him to address them as well.“My name is Oryn. I am a descendant of Tellus, and I am proud to stand before you today as the Alpha. I was like most of you. I was born dif
Haven: Rise of Luna Fallen and Risen
{ Oryn } I stand with Vynetta beside me as wolves funnel in and slowly fill up this icy cove-like area that we chose as the spot for this first meeting. We are positioned among the wolves, Vynetta looking like a simple family member of myself to the incoming wolves, a few of whom I notice also bring with them members of the family. Mostly men, but I spy a couple other women in the group as it grows larger. Codyn stands in front of everyone with a scowl etched on his face, his stance wide and his arms crossed as he radiates power. He is more powerful since he became Beta of our Pack, but we were able to work with him on suppressing this in his aura for these meetings. From where we and the wolves are standing, he looks like a pissed off and intimidating general for Kaydan’s army which is exactly what we were aiming for. There is a few silent minutes that go by when no more wolves are entering the area. I see Codyn n
