All the dawners gathered in the open packhouse courtyard that was decorated and lined with chairs on the night of the full moon. They were gathering for a double celebration tonight; the beta’s joining ceremony and the appointment of the new Dawn Gamma, Kiron Jivani. The air was filled with excitement, most coming from friends of the bride and groom as they all took their seats and waited patiently for the about-to-be-joined couple to arrive.
Soon after everyone was gathered, the doors swung open and the alpha of the dawn pack entered, holding his mate’s hand in his, everyone stood to acknowledge his presence and as Ava marched forward holding Lucas’s hand, wearing a bright red dress, she could feel all the stares pinned on her but this time it was different, she didn’t feel any form of embarrassment or shyness like she did at the peace ball, instead it felt like she was home, like she was in the midst of her family, just like it was with the moonlight
“Ava Maynard, my dear mate, will you please rise and come forward?”Ava was surprised as she heard her name. No one told her that she would have anything to do with whatever that was happening tonight, but seeing as she’d already been called, she had no choice but to answer. She stood up, walking slowly towards the stage, and putting her hand into Lucas’s hand that was waiting to receive her.“Three months ago, I was living the life that the one who cursed me intended for me; the life of a lonely wolf, a painful existence that I was meant to die in, but all that changed when I met this woman standing here, my mate. The one the moon goddess prepared for me. Ava Maynard, I am glad to have you in my life, and its not just about the mate bond, the mate bond is nothing but a simple attraction, but what I feel for you…. what I’ve always felt for you has been nothing short of love precious.”Ava didn’t know when th
***BLURB***The witch is back again; and she isn't here as Susannah the witch, she isn't here as Susan the deceiver, she is here as Sabrina the lost refugee, she is here with an ulterior motive, she is here with a different identity, she is here to ruin Lucas De' Clan's life. She is here to pay him back for all the evil that Rabbi the peasant has done to her in the past. She's ruined his life before, and she is here to do it again.Now, it's up to Lucas's mate, Ava Maynard to stop her. It's up to Ava to fight for her mate the way he fought for her. But will she succeed? Or instead, will Sabrina defeat her and get her final revenge on Lucas De' Clan? Only time will tell in Her Possessive Alpha 2: The return of Sabrina.***************EXERPT FROM THE STORY***Sabrina smiled in a corner, grinning in ecstasy as she watched it all, watching as Lucas dragged his crying mate through the halls and threw her hands off him as she wept and begged, trying t
Deep within the boundaries that lay between the supernatural earth and the underworld, in a place where no mortal has ever visited, there lived a witch named Susan. Susan has lived in the boundaries for many centuries, and she is a creature known by many names; Susannah, the wicked one, the most powerful immortal, the all-seeing eye, but by popular demand (because of the numerous destructions shes caused), many know her as the last witch.**********Sisters of the Virani, and all my deceased kin,Hear me now today, as I call you from within.Susan was mixing up a concussion with the souls she’d just collected from the graveyard. She was making a spell on a boiling pot of green flames; this spell was quite different from the ageing spell she had in mind to prepare before. She rarely changes spells, but there could only be one reason that made her change her plans so swiftly; one reason that could have been so important, and that reaso
The Virani lived in hiding in the drawls, a magical forest realm that bordered a human kingdom, Bandaria. They brought stability and peace to the kingdom, but the Bandarians never believed this, they hated the witches like a plague. Their king, William, hated mystical creatures and sorcerers the most and would kill anyone of them on sight. Hence, the witches were forced to live in hiding and were forbidden to reveal their powers whenever they visited the human world for fear of getting killed.Susannah was a young witch who had been born into the Virani during the war. A few days after her birth, her mother escaped an ambush with the help of her father and a few other witches, and they ran into a forest, creating a barrier around it with their powers to protect them from the humans who might want to attack them later. Her father, the last wizard, died shortly after being unable to sustain from the silver wounds inflicted on him by the humans, giving his final power to sus
Growing up and living within the comforts and safety of the drawls for 200 years, Susannah never had the problem of not being allowed to use her powers, but now that shed left her home for the first time, things were a lot more difficult. Shed set off the following morning, feeling anxious with a bit of excitement for this new adventure that awaited her, but it was far from what she expected as the forest separating her home from the human world was filled with darkness even during the brightest of days, no wonder it was called the dark forest, she travelled for three days through those thick bushes and it was the worst experience for her as she was left with nothing but her intellect and supernatural strength to guide her as her powers were not to be used during her journey.She was more than glad that the gruesome journey would soon come to an end when she spotted from afar the small cottages that lined the outskirts of the kingdom of Banda
“Oh, um her name is Susannah, shes a visitor who just arrived this evening so I offered her shelter for the night since she wont be able to travel any further until the morning comes. Shes looking for someone who lives in Bandaria, I was hoping you would help her because you know everyone in this place better than I do.”Harem hung his jacket on the stand and went to Susannah, taking a seat in front of her while his eyes scrutinized her sharply.“I see and Susannah, might I know where you are from and who exactly you are looking for?”“Umm. Im from one of the neighboring towns Sir.”He squinted his eyes. Which of them?“Umm. I um”Susannah looked back and forth between Gwen and Harem, she definitely didnt prepare for this, oh, what would she say now? Gwen quickly cut in much to her relief.“Oh, stop it Uncle Harem! Cant you see that y
Susannah huddled her legs close in her empty cell, shes been isolated from the other prisoners due to the charges against her, in about an hours time, shell take the silver test that will determine her fate. Of course, she knows shell fail it since Harems accusations were true and it will be the death at the stakes for her afterwards if she does not find a way to escape from this place soon.How did things go so wrong? She wondered. Her mother was right, the outside world is truly a cruel place, humans are truly cruel. Priya is dead now, and there is no hope for getting the ingredients anymore since she can never show her face in this town even if she escapes. Shell think about the ingredients later, but for now, she has to think of a way to get out of this place. Maybe she should just use her powers now?Just then, she began to hear footsteps coming towards the direction of her cell. The guards were bringing in another prisoner, she stood up from the groun
Rabbi took her to the deep cave he lived in near the river bank. The inside of the cave was furnished with a bed and a chair, and neatly arranged on the walls were some weapons, ornaments and pieces of gold and silver jewelry hed stolen from either the merchants who sold at market places, or from the pockets of the rich folk of Bandaria.Welcome to my humble abode, he said as he led her inside.“You have a beautiful place here, she remarked as she took in the sight of his small home.“Thank you.”She began looking around. “Do you live here all alone?”“My dad and I used to live here, but now its just me.”“What happened to him?”“He was stoned to death at the market square after he was caught stealing.”“Oh, Im so sorry about that.”“No need to be, I hated him so I didnt feel anything when he died, besides he doesnt have
Ava opened her eyes and looked around; Lucas was sitting beside the bed, his legs stretched out in front of him, and he was eating an apple and doing some paperwork beside the bed."What are you doing?" She asked, then moved closer to where he sat."Just checking the documents that Kiron submitted. Is anything the problem?""Well, actually, there is a problem," Ava said and pouted."What is it, precious?" He said, looking worried.Ava hid a pleased smile; she sure knows how to his attention."The problem is that this is supposed to be a vacation; you shouldn't be working on our vacation; you promised to relax here."Lucas chuckled, "You were sleeping, so I decided to get a little work done since I wasn't sleepy. Is there anything you want us to do?"She looked at him coyly, then he chuckled, "I know that look; you are a vixen, precious.""No, I am your vixen, the one you created."He dropped his book. She walked over to him, then sat on his lap, straddling him. She circled her arms ar
Kiron stepped down from his truck and then headed towards his house. It was already dark; today had been a long day; moving back and forth from Dawn pack to Moonlight pack wasn't easy.Alpha Lucas had made him an ambassador after they won the pack back from Fillip and Vulcan. He was in charge of helping Moonlight pack, now a colony of Dawn pack. Sometimes it was big work because Eli was way over his head, but he tried his best to be a fair and truthful Alpha.This job was more tasking than when he was just a Gamma to Lucas, It meant less time for him and Keisha to fool around, but she never complained.Sometimes, He only comes home for a few days or returns so late with no desire to do anything but sleep.He hardly delegated his duty when he was just a Gamma, so he found it hard to delegate now. He always likes to supervise everything himself, so he can ensure it's been run effectively.Speaking of Keisha, she was his wife now. She still helped in the nursery, but it wasn't a job; she
Keisha looked into the mirror to make sure her face mask washed off very well. She was still waiting for the makeup artist.Today was her wedding day; Kiron had talked to Lucas, and he had agreed to let them have their wedding a day before the moon festival.But then it was two weeks until the moon festival, so time wasn't on their side, but Kiron had insisted that they still do it on that day.Thanks to Luna, Ava, and Kiara, because they were like her fairy godmothers, they helped her plan everything in such a short time.She could still remember the morning she announced her engagement to Luna, Ava, and Kiara.Ava had hugged her and said, "Wow, I am so happy for you."While Kiara looked excitedly at the ring, she said, "Took him a damn long time, but he still did it before we kicked his ass."They had all laughed, then asked about the wedding plans and shared parts of them among themselves.Kiara's gown was modernized for her. Kiron had some people come take her measurements. The ne
"Where are we going?" Keisha asked Kiron again.They had been left in charge of the pack, but then Beta Cian and Kiara returned in the night, so Kiron had some free time on his hands.Since he was named Ambassador, he had mostly been so busy with his duties that he was always transporting goods to Moonlight Pack. Though Keisha was happy about his promotion, she missed him greatly whenever he was away.He had given her a beautiful gown today and then told her to dress up. She wanted to know where they were going, but he wasn't coming forward with information."It's a surprise. Now get dressed around six in the evening and meet me in the fields," he said, then left.She had washed her face and then headed to the nursery. She no longer worked in the nursery but helped there as she wasn't just ordinary Keisha anymore; she was the Gamma's partner now.When she arrived, the children ran towards her, many of them fighting to be in her arms.She led them back to class, greeting all the nurser
After a while, buffets and buffets of food were brought out.Yara served them their choices, but Kiara wasn't yet back from the bathroom."Hey, which bathroom did my mate go into?""The one at the back of the store is the building beside the hall.""Okay, thanks."Cian excused himself and left the hall.Alpha Daryl stood up and went to the podium."Thank you all for coming to make today all fun. I have the name of everyone here that has a mate in this box, including the Alphas."People began to murmur."Shhh, if I pick your name, you will come out and sing for your beautiful mate that the moon goddess gave you. Now let me shake the box."He shook the box so hard that some names wanted to fall off. He dipped his hand and then brought one out.He opened it, was shocked for a moment, and then smiled."Alpha Lucas De'Clan, the podium is yours."Everyone began to clap while Ava nudged Lucas, who sat with an emotionless look on his face.He looked at Ava's face for a while, then stood up. H
After checking on Ramsey, they saw he was fine with Nani, who fed him special meals. Ava begged Nani to watch him, then set out with Lucas.They walked to the pack's forest and then dropped everything they came with. Before leaving, they packed a blanket, dried meats, water, and fruits. Lucas carried most of the heavy stuff, while Ava just carried the fruit basket.They dropped the items beside a tall, old tree."Did you know the Dawn pack would have been built here instead of up there?""No, why would it have been here?""I wanted to do that, but Cian and the others convinced me not to cut down the trees and build more houses here."Ava nodded. "Look, there's a house over there, but it's depleted.""I know; that is where I used to live; there's plenty you don't know about me.""There's plenty you don't know, too," Ava challenged back."Of course, life is precious, yet we still live so happily. Come, let's go see Erasmus and Layla."Ava undressed, crouched on all fours, and shifted in
Lucas woke up and kissed his wife and his little boy. The previous night, Ava had tried to put Ramsey to bed in his room, but he started to cry."Mom, No!"He kept crying until Ava returned with him; he had slept with them on their bed. He keeps complaining that he sees Fillip in his dreams, and they have to find a way to make him stop seeing Fillip. Nani has already begun to work on a potion.Ava woke up, too, then slowly tiptoed over to Lucas, who was dressing up because Ramsey was still sleeping."Are you leaving already?""Nope, I will be back for breakfast. I just wanted to check on a few things for Madeline's funeral service."Ava nodded, "Then get going, so you will be back for breakfast; remember, we are waiting for you.""Okay, precious."Lucas walked towards his office and then spotted Levi Stone, the one he had temporarily put in charge of the soldiers and the one organizing Madeline's funeral.He was giving orders to two soldiers carrying the flowers to be careful. Lucas s
Under normal circumstances, Lucas De'Clan would have killed the guard and then killed Fillip too, but this time, Ramsey was involved in it. He kicked the guard's leg and then held him by the neck."Daddy, come take me," Ramsey cried out."I will, handsome; now I will be a big boy for Daddy, okay?""Okay."Lucas directed at Filip. "Let Ramsey go, or I will kill this guard."Fillip chuckled, "Does it seems like I care? Kill him if you want to. There are ten more guards here.""I can kill them all, Fillip; you, of all people, should know that.""You can, but you won't. Now let him go, or I will kill your son."Lucas pushed the soldier away and then raised his hand in surrender. "I know it's me you want; now, let Madeline and Ramsey go."Fillip smiled and said, "No, here's Madeline." He pushed her towards Fillip."Who says you would behave if you had Ramsey? You would turn to Erasmus and kill us all."Lucas caught Madeline and untied her hand, asking, "Are you okay?"She nodded, "Save Ram
"I can't believe that asshole would dare kidnap my son!" Lucas growled, slamming his hand on the table."Calm down, Alpha Lucas. Let's find a solution," Eli said."We will, but when I get my hands on Fillip, I will tear him apart limb by limb, and I will give him a prolonged and painful death. For fuck's sake, how can he kidnap a little kid because of his selfish interests.""I say we sneak in tonight as we did before, get Ramsey, then that asshole," Kiron suggested."No, we already did that once; besides, he knows that Nani may have reached the Dawn Pack by now. He would probably expect us to try to sneak in, so it's a bad idea," Cian advised, and then Kiron cursed."So what do we do then?" Eli asked."Maybe I should go alone as he suggested; that way, I will get my son.""Hell no, Alpha. Fillip won't give you Ramsey. We all know he is a corny asshole. He will only kill you, then Ramsey too," Cian said."I am not afraid of dying; I just wish I could get my son. Besides, you will be a
