The rest of the day we spent lazing around. I tried to keep my nerves from overwhelming me but I couldn't help but be worried. Arrow kept assuring me I was the only one he ever had eyes for. I trusted him but I didn't trust Sheila. The day turned into the night which ended faster than I had hoped. I rode to school feeling like I could throw up at any minute from my nerves. When we had parked, Arion picked me up holding me against him. My body trembled as I held on to him. I could feel the tears threatening to fall but I wouldn't let them. I wouldn't let her win."We are going to be with you all day. I promise, nothing is going to happen," Arrow said as he rubbed circles into my back trying to comfort me. "What about the classes you don't have with me? I know she was removed but you know how evil she is," I sounded like a scared little girl. How could I ever expect to be a good Luna when I sounded so pathetic? "Well, glad to see she doesn't care who is watching when she is trying to
I was sitting across from Alpha Jax, Arion on one side and Arrow on the other. "Dad, something has to be done about Sheila. She is set on hurting Rina. She can't be allowed to continue. Rina is our mate and the future Luna of this pack. Sheila should be tried for treason!" Arion shouted. I sat quietly chewing on my nail waiting to see what kind of punishment I was going to receive for attacking Sheila. Arion and Arrow had filled their father in on the situation and to my surprise, he already knew about my troubles with her. "Arion, I can't try her for treason unless she tries to kill Rina. As far as fighting, Rina had every right to defend her mates and the bond. I will be calling Sheila in to question her as well as calling a meeting with her parents. As for Coach, I think he will think twice before grabbing Rina again even if it involves a fight," Alpha Jax chuckled. "Rina, you will not be punished. You acted within your rights to a threat made against you and the mate bond. As f
"Dad, why do I need a guard? I can handle this, I promise." My pleas were falling on deaf ears. "I'm sorry Rina, as the future Luna, you need to understand how important this is. Alpha Jax wants you to have a guard at all times. Your safety has become a top priority." He stopped for a minute to look at me. "I know it doesn't seem it because of how much time I spend here, but your safety has always been a top priority to me." I could see my dad's love for me in how he looked at me. He kissed my cheek and we began walking again. I hated the idea of having a guard. I barely got any privacy now! How will I be able to have any with a guard? I rolled my eyes as I followed my dad to his office. Arrow and Arion were walking beside me talking about who they hoped my guard was. When we got to my Dad's office, he opened the door. I could see a man sitting in a chair. He was looking down at his phone. All I could see was his broad shoulders and a head of sandy blonde hair."Alvar, this is my da
The burning subsided after ten minutes. My head felt like it would float away. I sat up trying to suppress the want to vomit. Doctor Steininger was watching me closely. "How do you feel now?" he asked watching me as if I may puke on his shiny patten leather shoes."I feel like crap! How long does this last? Will I have to feel like this every day?" I felt myself getting more and more upset. Why do I have to go through this? Why can't something just be easy?"This should be the worst one. Since you were so close to your heat, I had to give you a higher dose than normal. I need to tell you, these shots will only keep the effects of your heat away. You can still get pregnant and if you are pregnant or you get pregnant, they will not harm a pup." "So you're telling me, I will still have all the other stuff, I just won't feel hot?" I asked incredulously. If that's all it does, why bother suffering through heat at all?"Rina, it's not that simple. This medication will only work temporaril
I don’t know what happened but the next thing I knew Jasper was being held against the wall by his throat. His legs dangled helplessly as he made gurgling noises. Arion had him by the throat. I watched helplessly as fur began sprouting along his arms. His fangs elongated and I could tell he was close to shifting. When he spoke, his voice didn’t sound at all like him. Gone was his gentle soothing voice and in its place was the feral snarl of a monster. “What are you saying, Jasper? You dare come into our home and insult your Luna!” he snarled. I reached for Arrow to discover in his place stood his wolf. He was snarling as though he might shred Jasper at any minute. I couldn’t help the fear rising inside me causing goosebumps to form along my exposed skin. At the same time, I wanted the twins more than ever. “I’m sorry, I didn’t mean it. You, you are my friends,” Jasper choked out between coughs. “Who started the rumors? Tell me now!” Arion snarled sounding completely different.“I d
The twins were watching me as though I was a piece of meat they wanted to devour. I couldn't deny the feeling is mutual. "Little mate, come here." Arrow's voice sent shivers down my body as my core began to ache for their touch. I looked at him to find his eyes were black. I felt the familiar tingles as Arion came up behind me. "Little mate, you are irresistible," his voice nearly made me moan. The way they looked at me sent heat to my core, making it hard to remember the situation I was in. I wanted them more then I have ever wanted anyone or anything in my life. “Little mate, you are ours, come here,” Arrow said reminding me I hadn’t moved. Slowly I took steps toward him. I knew I couldn’t wait much longer. My body was heating up faster with each passing minute. I did not want to cook to death! As I made my way closer, Arrow grabbed me pulling me to him. My breasts pressed against his hard chest felt better than anything. I felt Arion rubbing against me from behind. Suddenly I was
As we piled into Arion's car for school, my stomach felt like I had swallowed a rock. I didn't feel good from the medicine and I was worried about the rumors. I had no idea what was floating around school about me. From what Jasper had said, I wasn't sure I really wanted to know. We parked and began walking to class. I kept hearing people snickering and giggling behind me. I looked over my shoulder to find them whispering to each other. By the time we reached the building, I realized what they were laughing at. Hanging on the light posts that lined the walkway were pictures of me! I looked closer realizing they were taken as I was walking to the shed where I found Darren and his mate. As we got closer, the pictures got closer to me opening the door. When we got to the door, there was a huge poster-size image of my face when I opened the door. On the photo was the caption "Rina's surprise." I heard all the laughter from behind me, I turned to face them all. "You all think it is funny
I spun around to find a few wolves meandering around, had one of them called my name? I turned back to my mates who were standing at the top of the stairs waiting for me.“Come on, babe!” Arrow called.I ran up the stairs, “did you guys hear someone call my name?” I was sure I had heard it.“No, who was it?” Arrow asked.“I think if she knew who it was, she wouldn’t have asked if we heard it,” Arion chuckled giving Arrow a sarcastic glance. “I don’t know, maybe I imagined it,” I opened the door to our suite. I felt better being nude in our own place. I would have to get used to this. I went into the bathroom, I reached in the shower turning the water on. I was about to step in when I heard it again, “Rina,” the voice called. I nearly jumped out of my skin! I spun around to find I was still the only one in the room. “Who’s there?” I asked. I waited for an answer but nothing, only the sound of the water as it splashed against the shower. I turned the water off before I sat quietly and
The crowd surrounding us was silent. I felt warm arms wrap around me. I knew it was my mates. I couldn’t help but stare at the medallion in my hands.“Baby, are you ok?” two worried voices asked.“What? Oh, yes, I’m ok.” I answered. I looked up into the faces of my mates.The crowd was watching us, their faces showed the confusion I was feeling.“Hail, Luna Rina,” a voice I did not recognize yelled from behind everyone.I looked to see who it belonged to. Dex was in front of me, his body poised to attack. My mates were the same. The pack turned to see the person who had spoken. They looked ready to strike, if necessary.“I mean no harm to any of you,” the voice said. I tried to see the silhouette's face. My name is Nikko Fallen. Perhaps you have heard of me?” he asked, stepping into the light. The crowd gasped. “I have been sent here on behalf of the guardians.” He continued walking forward before stopping in the middle of the aisle. “I am here for the true Luna.”My mates let out a
I looked around me at the smiling wolves all cheering loudly. I felt my cheeks heat up as I smiled brightly. Their energy was infectious. I felt their emotions crash down on me. I concentrated on sending out the same adoration they held for me. My mates smiled proudly. They looked incredibly handsome in their matching tuxedos. My dad gently squeezed my arm letting me know it was time to go meet them. We began walking towards them. I could barely contain my happiness.After what felt like the longest walk of my life, we stood in front of my Mates and the current Alpha. “Welcome everyone, today is an exciting day for our pack, today my sons will become your alphas!” Another round of cheers broke out through the crowd. “They have found their mate, please welcome Rina,” he said turning his attention to me. The wolves surrounding us were still cheering.Alpha Jax held up his hands to silence the crowd. “In our traditions, I will now join our two families as one. He held up a beautiful go
The day of the announcement had arrived. I lay in bed, my mates wrapped around me. I tried to imagine what it will be like once we were not only announced but the pack is turned over to us. Being the true Luna felt like added pressure. What would everyone think? What kind of power would the medallion give to all of us?“Stop worrying yourself.” I looked into Arrow's eyes. No matter what happens, we love you, and nothing will ever change that.” He leaned up, kissing my nose. I loved the way he sounded when he first woke up, his voice crackly with sleep. “You’ve got this, my love,” he smiled.“Babe, you are going to be the greatest Luna ever!” Arion smiled looking up at me.That evening…Alphas and Lunas had been arriving all afternoon, the twins becoming the alphas was a huge ordeal. Twin alphas hadn’t been seen in at least a hundred years. Nobody had announced that I was a true Luna, we had decided to keep that information only in our pack. I could hear the music downstairs as I sat w
Today was the last day before the mating ceremony. I was excited but also nervous. I would be standing in front of the pack as we are announced as the new Alphas and their Luna. We would also be announcing the twins I am carrying. I looked at myself in the mirror. So much has changed in a short time. I went from being invisible to being mated to my hell twins. I wouldn't change being their mate but sometimes I have doubts about myself. Since the medallion confirmed I am the true Luna, I have tried to push the worries away. I never would have imagined that simple me, Rina, would be the true Luna, mated to the Alpha Twins. "Hey Rina, you ok in there?" Arion's voice broke through my thoughts. "Yeah, sorry, I will be out in a minute," I called back. I ran my fingers through my hair one more time before opening the door. Arion was still standing there, he leaned down gently kissing my forehead. "We were getting worried," he explained. I peered into our bedroom, Arrow was still sleepin
The next morning, I awoke to the smell of bacon cooking. My mouth watered as the scent filled my nose. I stretched as I yawned. I slid off the bed, and walking to the bathroom, I could hear the muffled voices of my mates. I made my way to the kitchen, the smell of bacon making my stomach growl. "Good morning," I greeted my mates. "Good morning Babe," they answered in unison. "We made breakfast," they both smiled. "It smells divine," I smiled back. Arrow placed a plate of bacon, eggs, and homefries before me. I picked up my fork and took a bite. It tasted every bit as good as it smelled. I couldn't help the moan that escaped me. "This is delicious," I said shoveling another fork full into my mouth. They both chuckled, "I'm glad," Arion said happily. They brought their plates over and plopped down on either side of me. A comfortable silence fell over us as we ate. When I had finished, I carried my plate to the sink. Turning on the water, I picked up the soap."Um, what do you think
The book in my hands held more information than I had ever seen in one place. The book foretold an enemy to werewolves unlike any we had faced before. Not only was it one of our own, but the truest packs would be the main targets. The medallions were forged long ago to help defeat the threat when the time came. As I looked at the words staring back at me from the pages, I couldn't help the feeling of worry growing heavier in my chest with each passing sentence. "Rina, you don't look like you are feeling very well," Arion's worried voice broke through my thoughts. "I think you need to take a break."I sighed, "I think you are right, I am going to put this back for now but we will have to come back soon," I said knowing I would hold the book again. Once we exited, I couldn't help but think about the things I had read. I had stopped before I read too much further into what would happen once the enemy was discovered. I knew we were facing a huge threat but I knew I had to protect my bab
The hot water helped to soothe my muscles. I wanted to relax and forget all the weird things that had happened that day. Why did the medallion react that way to me? Was I truly the true Luna of our pack? Why did I start glowing when I was upset from the nightmare I had? All these questions kept racing around inside my head. I sunk, letting myself sink below the water before popping back up again. I wiped the water from my eyes, and when I opened them, I was staring into two sets of identical eyes. "What are you doing in the tub, little mate?" Arion asked, his eyes darkening a bit. "We would have run a bath for you and joined you," Arrow replied in a husky voice. "I can run myself a bath," I retorted. " I wanted a bit of time to soak by myself," I said, giving them a sly smile. "Besides, my body is a bit sore. I leaned back and closed my eyes. I felt a hand reach in and tickle me, and I slapped it away eliciting a laugh from Arrow. "We will let you enjoy your time," he chuckled
"Babe, we have you," Arion tried again to soothe my sobs. "It was horrible," I cried. I lifted my head to look at my mates. "Rina?" Arrow said. "I am not trying to scare you, but you need to breathe, please, breathe with me," he began taking deep breaths and letting them out slowly. I tried to follow but my mind couldn't focus. I felt an unfamiliar feeling that began in the pit of my stomach before spreading throughout my body. "Rina, you have to listen to us right now," Arion tried, his voice thick with worry. I lifted my head to look at him. "Rina, please, you have to calm down," Arion begged. I looked at my hands, the strange glow that had been in my eyes when Sheila's mother had insulted me earlier had spread and was now engulfing my entire body. I looked into the worried eyes of my mates. I sucked in a deep breath before slowly releasing it. As I continued to breathe, the glow began dissipating. I concentrated on the feel of my mates holding me and before long, I was n
"My eyes are glowing?" I asked incredulously. I closed my eyes and opened them again. "Are they still glowing?" I asked looking at my mates. "It is fading," Arrow answered. "What the hell was that anyway?" he asked looking at his father."That my son was the medallion confirming Rina is the true Luna of our pack. The medallion will only react that way in the hands of the true Luna," he explained. "Will that happen every time she holds it?" Arion asked."I can't be sure," he replied. "I have only heard tales of its power." I sat quietly, there was a strange tingling sensation spreading throughout my body. I wasn't sure what to do, it did not hurt but it felt strange, to say the least."Let it happen, do not fight it," Mirage said in my mind. "The Moon Goddess is giving you the power to protect and help our pack. We always had the power and strength, she is blessing us with her strength, we are destined for this.""Mirage, why is she giving us more strength if we were always strong
