Chapter 12 – Festival

I wiggled into my wood nymph costume, it was a layered dress with brown and green chiffon. It had leaves, bark, vines and

twigs elaborately sewn into it. The headdress was beautiful and would hide my hair perfectly. It had vines and twigs intertwined in it and had a train that draped down my back.

I rubbed brown and glittery green body paint on the exposed

parts of my arms and legs, before I did the same to my neck and face. Once it was dry, I slipped the beautifully embellished

masquerade mask over my eyes. The costume was sexy and fun, had I been wearing it for any other occasion I would have

enjoyed it.

I grabbed my waterproof lighter and slipped it into my bra. My cellphone, money, keys and another lighter went into a small

brown pouch purse. I hung the purse over my neck and shoulder, and it blended well with my costume.

I knocked on Rocky’s door and she opened it, the Medusa costume on her was fantastic. Leo was sitting in his satyr

    Chapter 13 – Escape “I’ve been waiting to get you alone and now you just stumble right into the wolf ’s den. What luck!” Eros smiled at me. “Why have you been looking for me, Eros?” “Oh Raven, little Raven.” He sucked his teeth. “Seeing you in this sexy little costume would make even the God Pan chase after this tempting wood nymph.” He said as he lifted my mask from my face. “What do you want from me?” I demanded. He grabbed me harder around the waist and dragged me into his office. He threw me into an armchair, placed one hand on each side and leaned his crooked nose inches away from mine. “Tell me, why are my men disappearing when they get close enough to you?” He asked. “I have no idea what you’re talking about.” I snapped back. “I’ve sent some of my best warriors after you and most don’t come back.” He stared intently at me. This must have been what Niko was talking about. “Those were your best? They couldn’t tell the difference between a human and wolf. They picked up

    Chapter 14 – Beast We dismounted the motorcycle and Niko turned to me, “It’s okay, you’re safe now.” “Where are we?” “We’re at my pack house.” He answered. “I think you’ll like it here.” “Does your Alpha know I’m with you?” I asked. “Oh yeah.” He smiled wide. “Listen Raven, he could be a bit grumpy at first, but I know he will warm up to you.” Niko grinned. “I bet! I’m sure grumpy Alpha will appreciate a sassy, opinionated, female Alpha with a knack for getting into trouble.” I groaned and rolled my eyes. “He will love you.” Niko laughed and led the way. We walked up the stairs and entered the double doors of this stunning house. The dark wooden floors were a beautiful contrast to the light colored walls and decor. There was a double grand staircase with the same dark colored wood used for the railings. The chandelier was a gorgeous crystal and tied everything together. “The Alpha is in his office waiting for us.” Niko told me. I nodded my head and walked with him down a

    Dimitri’s POV Chapter 15 – Trouble “SHE DID WHAT?” I yelled at my Gamma Alec who was supposed to be watching Raven from the roof tops of the Plaka while she was at the festival. We had suspected that she would be out again with her friends, getting herself into trouble. She certainly has a gift for finding trouble. The buyers for the humans would be arriving today and we wanted to make sure they were dead before they could leave with the girls. Then we would pick the girls up and release them. If we can hurt his business, by hurting his clients, we would be able to draw him out in the open and finally send him to hell. Weeks of planning and it was all going to go to hell because of one little bird. She had broken into the building and would probably be captured by that bastard. I called Niko. “Yeah boss?” He answered. “She went into the building, get her out.” I ordered. “Fuck! The buyers and their guns just went into that building too.” He said and disconnected. I knew my

    Chapter 16 – Him“YOU WILL NOT PUT ME IN A CAGE LIKE SOME WILDANIMAL!” I yelled at this Alpha jerk.My eyes still closed because they had dirt in them. I desperately wanted to wash my face and rinse my eyes out. I could feel him standing inches away from me and I couldn’t help but thinkabout his naked body.“Look at you.” He said and gently tucked a strand of hair behind my ear. “You’re a wild animal.” He said. Tingles shot down myspine at the sound of his voice. I was fighting an urge from deep down inside of me to lean into him and make contact.I heard footsteps approaching and I was hoping it was Niko, but I could actually smell the she wolf. “Here you go Alpha.” Shesaid.“Thank you.” He replied to her. He was being nice to whoever the strawberry sorbet smelling female was and I felt a pang of jealousy.“I can’t open my eyes; I need to rinse them.” I said.“You’ll have to wait until we get back. Now raise your arms up.” He said and I felt a shirt being pulled over my head, so

    Chapter 17 – RealizationHis lips crashed onto mine and the electricity exploded in my core. My hands reached for his face and I wanted more. Histongue traced my lips and a moan escaped me. Seizing theopportunity, his tongue made its way through my slightly parted lips to my tongue. I welcomed the invasion and kissed back. He deepened the kiss and I could feel his hunger for me. His bigstrong hand was suddenly cradling the back of my head.His kiss was so delicious, my inexperienced mouth craved more even as I struggled for air. My toes curled and my heart wasracing. I had only ever kissed one boy before, and that was Zach. Dimitri was no boy; he was a man with years ofexperience ahead of me. I suddenly felt so insecure, so little and inexperienced.Feeling my hesitation, Dimitri pulled back and studied my face.He was several years older than me, an established Alpha. Heprobably has a girlfriend, several lovers, in fact, he was going to Odessa’s room tonight. I felt vulnerable

    Chapter 18 – DesireI was wearing a pretty cream colored dress that Odessa hadloaned me, all eyes seemed to be on me. Most faces were warm and friendly, some were curious. Whispers from the other tables buzzed as speculation about me continued to grow.I sat quietly at the breakfast table between Dimitri and Niko. Dimitri kept stealing sideway glances at me and his chair was inching closer and closer to me. I could feel his aura and the need to be closer to him was burning in my chest, like a pull.Niko and Alec were smiling at each other, their eyes were glazed over, I had a feeling they were mind linking. Elaina and thekitchen staff had prepared a big spread with sfougato, which is like a big Greek breakfast frittata. There was also, sausages,oatmeal, yogurt with honey, different breakfast breads and fresh fruit.“So Raven, how did you sleep last night?” Niko asked with a big suggestive grin on his face and Alec burst out laughing.“Fine, thank you.” My response was short.“I don

    Chapter 19 – HistoryMy phone was ringing again. “It’s a video call from my cousin Clair.” I said and sat on Dimitri’s bed ready to answer.“Hello Clair.” I smiled and waved into the camera. Clair is my Aunt Payton’s daughter; she had the same LaRue bright blueeyes and black hair, as I did. We were often mistaken for sisters and had actually grown up in the castle together like siblings.“Hey, what’s going on? How’s the Dionysus festival going?” She eagerly asked.“It’s been very interesting.” I laughed. “How’s everyone doing?” “My parents are visiting Uncle Ranger. Your parents are in thecity for a few days on business. Zach and Sydney are still on their honeymoon in Australia. Helga just made an amazingcheesecake, nothing too exciting.”“How are the boys?” I asked and Dimitri stood tense hearing me ask about boys. Guess I forgot to mention that the boys are my brothers.“They’re great, Peter found his mate at Dark Moon pack. Hername is Mandi, she’s Gamma Blake’s daughter, which

    Chapter 20 – Trap“YES! She made the moussaka tonight!” Niko said as the kitchen staff placed the platters of food on the table.“You will never move out of the pack house so long as Elaina is here cooking for you.” Odessa teased Niko.Not only had Elaina made the moussaka for dinner, but therewas also keleftiko, which is a traditional lamb dish, stuffed bell peppers, rice, vegetables and a lovely Greek salad topped withfeta.I had spent the day napping and was hoping to get out andexplore the beautiful pack lands here, but Dimitri insisted that I stay inside. He was concerned about the rogues that had beennear the pack territory. We’re not sure if their presence was coincidental or if they were looking to find me.“You know, you’ll have to make an appearance or two at the Dionysus festival, so it looks like business as usual. If you’renot seen, it’s going to look like you’re hiding Raven and staying close to her.” Spiro told Dimitri.“I’m not leaving her alone if that’s what you

    Chapter 36 – MidnightThey returned from their run an hour later with smiles on their faces. My heart smiled seeing them in good spirits. We sat around the fire waiting for midnight.Lukas would need to step outside and take the potion under the full moon at midnight. No one was sure what to expect, if it would be painful or not. If it would really work and if Storm would finally be able to shift tonight. No one was leaving, they wanted to make sure everything was okay and be here to help Storm with her shift.I was seated on Lukas’ lap and listened while Alpha Dimitri shared funny stories from Lukas and Angelo’s childhood. He told us more about the pack in Greece and the other family packs. Then he made baby name suggestions.“Five minutes to midnight.” Angelo announced and my heart fluttered. “Storm, are you ready?” I asked her but she didn’t reply. I could feel hertension.We made our way outside and everyone looked up at the sky. It was a clear and beautiful night. My eyes instan

    Chapter 35 – Full MoonI was having a good morning so far. Lukas cooked breakfast for me and I was still able to keep it down. Though I can’t say the same about my head, it’s still heavy from the concussion, and if I move it too fast I get dizzy. For the most part I feel pretty good. Doctor Edwards removed the stitching yesterday and I was finally able to wash my hair. Well, actually, Lukas washed my hair for me.He spoke with Magnus yesterday who agreed to brew another transfer spell which will take twenty-four hours. Lukas still intends to take the potion tonight when the moon is full. Storm is anxious and worried about Luke being bound for an entire month before Lukas’ Great Uncle Ranger takes the second potion to transfer the curse to himself. He will have to wait until the next full moon, and I hope we are able to break the curse.It’s very admirable for his Uncle Ranger to willingly take the curse from Lukas. He’s a very strong Alpha, even in his old age. I remember what Lola ha

    Chapter 34 – TimeLukas POV“Please Moon Goddess, take me instead. I know I don’t deserve her, but if you ever hear my prayers, hear them now. Please let her be okay... please.” I prayed. I’ve been praying for three days now.Doctor Edwards had come with us to Sapphire Moon to help tend to any wounded wolves. Unfortunately, Syble was the only one really injured. That bastard had cracked her head open and I almost lost her. Syble was so weak and she had lost a lot of blood. Her healing was slow because she’s never shifted. Doctor Edwards had to stitch her up and stabilize her before we could transport her back in an SUV my father took from Sapphire Moon.Luke has been inconsolable and I’m no better. She looked so weak and pale, I couldn’t even tell if she was getting better or worse. We brought her back to the infirmary at Blue Mountain and she’s been connected to all types of wires and tubes. Doctor Edwards kept her under sedation to help her rest and recover but stopped sedating her

    Chapter 33 – Sunrise“Syble that was amazing!” Beta Finn said to me as the warriors from Sapphire Moon ran back.“She’s just as talented as we thought she’d be. I’ll meet you all inside, I need to call Alpha Diesel and update him. Then call my son, Alpha Troy, and let him know we’ll be taking his warriors to conquer Sapphire Moon at sunrise.”“Where is Alpha Troy?” I asked before I could even stop myself. We’ve been here almost two weeks and had yet to see him.“He took my place on the shifters council a few years back, he’s currently in Jordan trying to track a prophet named, Duja. We’re hoping she can help us with the last piece of the golden prophecy my mother gave.” He told us and stepped inside.“My mate and I are going to return to the cottage and put some dry clothes on. We’ll be back in twenty minutes to meet with Alpha Trevor.” Lukas told everyone and shifted back into wolf form.I climbed up on Luke and wrapped my arms around his neck. He took off running and we reached the

    Chapter 32 – BreathlessIt’s been over a week and Alpha Dimitri has trained with me every day. Today we’re working on lightning bolts caused by electrostatic when I shift hot and cold air in the atmosphere. Alpha Dimitri set up points for me to target.Luna Raven had asked Alpha Trevor for complete privacy during my training and told him I was having a difficult time focusing with anyone observing. To ensure no one was watching us, Angelo and Camille took Arlo and Cami out to run the perimeter of the training area. Angelo’s wolf, Arlo, is large and chocolate brown like his eyes. Camille’s wolf, Cami, is brown with white paws and a white bib.I’d be lying if I said Storm wasn’t jealous. She wanted nothing more than to run with her Alpha mate and mark him. Angelo and Camille marked each other earlier this week. While everyone was happy for them, I could feel Storm’s despair.The sky was gray with heavy clouds, Alpha Dimitri believed I could impact the air temperatures enough to impact r

    Chapter 31 – TrainingIt felt wonderful waking up in the familiar cottage under thick warm blankets that my grandmother had quilted. Lukas stirred awake when I tried to slip away to use the toilet.“What would you like to do today?” He asked me. “We should start with breakfast at the pack house.”“Can’t we just stay here for breakfast and I can nibble on you?” “Your father is training me today. You can nibble on me later.”“Just an ear or breast, maybe a thigh?” He grabbed me and pulled me back down on the bed.“Come on, I don’t want to be late.” I told him and we rolled out of bed and got dressed.We took the jeep back to the pack house and joined everyone for breakfast. Lukas pulled me to his lap and fed me, he wanted to make sure I had plenty of energy to train today. Luna Raven seemed to beam with happiness.“Alpha Dimitri, Beta Finn has secured the east end of the territory for you to train at all morning. There's a big open field. You should be free of disruptions and curious fa

    Chapter 30 – MemoriesLukas POVBeta Finn was kind enough to show us to our suite and our luggage had already been brought up. I pulled the covers back on the bed and set Syble down. I removed her shoes and pulled her jeans off. She laid back on the pillows and I covered her up.“Can I get you anything?” I asked her.She shook her head but made no noise. I could feel the distress coming from her and her thoughts were swirling around. I closed the curtains, then undressed and slipped into bed with her, pulling her to my chest. Her little body started shaking, as she sobbed. All I could do was offer my comfort. Luke was howling seeing his mate in so much pain.“It’s okay Luke,” she managed to whisper. “It’s going to be okay.”She never ceases to amaze me, here she is, in so much pain and she’s trying to comfort my wolf. Luke was trying his hardest to take control, he craved her affection and attention too.“You can release Luke.” She said.“You want me to let him have control?” I asked.

    Chapter 29 – AnswersWe boarded the jet which was surprisingly bigger than I thought it would be from the outside. The inside was lined with rich leather and fine wood veneers. It had several big leather seats that reclined back for sleeping, tables, flat screen televisions, a tiny kitchen area and even a bathroom with a shower.We had eaten breakfast at the hotel before we left but Luna Raven also had snacks delivered to the plane. Our flight time is about two hours and the plane will be landing in Utica, which is in upstate New York. Once we land, we’ll be traveling by car the remaining sixty miles into the Adirondack mountains. Sapphire Moon occupies the north east part of the vast mountain range and Blue Mountain was more south west. It was easier to land in Utica and avoid Sapphire Moon all together.“Oh, we won’t be avoiding them. Once we get this curse broken, I have some unfinished business at that pack.” Lukas mind linked me. He had obviously been listening to my thoughts.“Y
