We sit talking, watching a film, eating popcorn, sweets and crisps the night turns out to be really fun.
I can tell everyone is tired and I'm not surprised it is 1am. I stand up from Titans lap.
" I'm going to get in bed guys before I fall asleep where I'm sat. Pretty sure the sofa pulls out in to a bed so some of you guys can get in there. Goodnight."
Theirs a chorus of 'goodnight, and I'm tired too, let's sleep' from the gang as I head over to my bed. I climb in and lay in the middle.
I feel the bed dip on either side and look up to see Titan getting in one side and Cain and Rach getting in the other. Nat even scoots in next to Titan, Rach puts her arm around me one side while Titan cuddles up to me from the other and I actually don't mind. I'm just a girl sleeping in a bed with her friends. I feel weirdly safe and drift off in to a deep sleep.
When I wake the next morning I'm sandwiched in between Rach, Titan, Cain and Nat. I try to move to use the bathroom but between Rach and Titans death grips on me I can't move. I feel happy to have made so many new friends in the little time I've been here. I shake Rach slightly trying to wake her up so I don't have to wake Titan. I can't believe he kissed me last night im not in to clingy and possessive it's not for me, especially only after a few hours of meeting the guy, I'm really not like that either, throwing myself at people I just met.
Rach pops one eye open. "Cici what do you want? Go to sleep" she hisses at me.
"I need to pee but you and Titan have me sandwiched in." I hiss back at her.
I swear if I leave it any longer they'll all have to get up because I'll have peed in the bed. Rach releases her hold on me and I slip slowly out of Titans grasp.
Just when I think I'm free I feel a hand grab my wrist and I'm dragged right back to where I was. "Cici baby, go back to sleep, I'm comfy." Titan all but growls down my ear pulling me to him.
I hear Rach and Cain let out a giggle and try to pull myself back up.
"Titan, I need to use the bathroom, leave up will you."
He shrugs and huffs and reluctantly let's go of me.
I jump up quick before anyone else can possibly pull me back in to the bed and run to the bathroom. I'm not a fan of being the guys' play thing to torment each other.
I do my business and head back out and in to my closet to grab some clothes and make my way back in to the bathroom. I decide I'll take a quick shower while everyone is sleeping and they can fight over the bathroom when they wake up. I shower quickly, brush my teeth and change in to a red skater skirt and white tee that I tuck in, I pull on my signature white knee high socks and brush out my blonde curls tesing them for a little extra volume and head back in to the room.
Cain, Titan, Tiny, Kay and Manda are sat infront of the TV on the floor engrossed in whatever they're watching whilst Rach, Nat, Ryan and Nicole are still sleeping. I walk over and sit on a cushion between Kay and Manda. Titan glares at me, gets up and comes over to me pulling me in to his lap burying his head in my neck. What the hell is this guys deal, I mean I don't mind being man handled by someone as gorgeous as this but I feel like I've been in a relationship with the guy for years the way he's acting.
I say good morning to them all and watch TV until the others slowly wake up one by one.
"Hey, you look hot!" Rach says taking a seat next to me in the cantene, "and I'm not the only one who has noticed, I saw the stares from the guys and girls on our way down here. So what do you think of Titan then after what happened last night?" She continues looking at me quizzically.
" The guy is hot don't get me wrong I'm not blind but I find him super intense." I finish as Titan approaches the table and takes the seat on my other side. This time he manages to keep his hands to himself which I'm glad of I need to settle in before I start thinking about guys, and getting with a guy in your group of friends is never a good idea, I know, it doesn't end well.
"What is the plan for the day?" I ask to the group now they had all got their meals and got to the table. They talked about things they wanted to show me and what they usually do on their weekend off.
We're going swimming so I put on my cute lilac bikini and put my hair in a messy style bun on top of my head I pull on a royal blue skater dress over the top while Rach wears my hot pink bikini we found in my drawers and a green skater dress to go over the top, it matches her eyes perfectly. I am enjoying having girl friends. I pack a bag with my fluffy pink towel and underwear in and throw it over my shoulder and Rach and I head down to meet everyone at the pool.
We bump in to Titan on the way, he takes my hand, no words exchanged, just took it and my bag, he walked like it was natural and Rach is linking me on my other side.
Titan leaves go of me to make his way to the guys locker rooms and me and Rach head in to the girls. We take off our dresses and put them on the benches.
The pool is massive it's amazing, theirs a few other students swimming around and having fun in their groups, one guy swims over to the side and stops holding himself up on the side of the pool to where I'm standing.
" Hey newbie, good to meet you finally, your the talk of the school. I can't believe these guys are trying to keep you to themselves. I'm Callen."
He says putting his hand out for me to shake. I lean down graciously and take his hand I'm about to introduce myself when he pulls me and I crash in to the water. I make my way to the surface spluttering trying to pull myself together.
When I reach the surface I look around and see Callen laughing. " Welcome to high....... "
Theirs a huge splash and the guy is pulled under the water I see Ryan, Tiny and Cain running over they dive in, Tiny surfaces with Callen holding him around his middle and Ryan and Cain surface with Titan. "What the hell man, I was just playing around." Callen spits at Titan, Titan just shrugs him off and swims over to me anger quite evident on his handsome face. "Titan, I'm okay I can fight my own battles he was just playing." I spit at him now feeling embarrassed that this guy whom I have known for just over a day is trying to start with people on my behalf. I'm not down for this sort of thing I am capable of looking after myself and I'd have just laughed it off if I'm honest.
I turn and swim to the edge ignoring the look of hurt that flashes across Titans face, and climb out of the pool. I race to the locker room and grab my belongings and run back to my room and lock the door. I don't know why but the tears just start flowing from my eyes, I hate feeling embarrassed and what Titan did just really annoyed me.
I decide to stay locked in my room for the rest of the day despite the protests from the gang at the door asking me to come out or let them in. I just need some time to myself to settle in and figure out what to say to Titan. I don't want to be in a relationship right now, not this serious with a guy I just met anyway.I wake up Sunday morning feeling a little better and thinking maybe I overreacted, I look at the clock and decide to get ready and go down for brekfast much to my stomachs relief I haven't eaten since yesterday morning. I throw on some nude joggers and matching cropped hoodie, my white training shoes and make my hair look somewhat presentable in a neat, high ponytail. As I'm heading down the hall Titan spots me and makes a bee line for me. "Rach is on her way up to your room, I'll come wait with you I was just heading over to apologise for yesterday, I dont know what came over me." He says in a genuine tone throwing his arm casually around my shoulders in a 'youll clea
I made my way to my room, I had put my number in everyone's phones last night and was added to a group chat with everyone. I looked over the chat debating wether to text or not, curiosity won and I decide to send a text. Listen guys idk what's going on here but I don't want to hear a thing from any of you unless it's an explanation! First your all great, then Titan is possessive and kisses me out of the blue, sleeps next to me cuddling me then the twins turn up & think they have some kind of claim to me? I'm not even sure what that shit was about but I'm done with it all, I'm noones possession and both of you? You're brothers why would I be with both of you? Rach you've got some explaining to do!! all of you have.Ajax: Titan did what? Titan: Calm down man I didn't know this was going to happen I'm sorry I left as soon as you claimed her this morning.Me: Didn't know that what was going to happen?Kay : I reckon now you know you should just tell her, you'll have to eventuallyTash
I begin to stir from my slumber and think back to the very strange dream I had. Rach turning in to a big coppery ginger wolf, yeh right I need to stop watching these warewolf and vampire films they're amazing but clearly I'm loosing my marbles. It felt so real. I sit up and look to the bedside table for a bottle of water, "sh*t" I curse and jump as I notice the two handsome guys sat at my bedside asleep in chairs they have pulled over from the lounge area. What the hell are they doing here, wait, no, no this cannot, the dream, wolf, Rach. My brain is trying to figure out what on earth has happened, what's real? What isn't? Surely it was just a dream.Ajax begins to stir, he looks over to me and sits up smacking Aries to wake him never taking his eyes off me as if I might run."What the fuck man?" Aries berates his brother as he comes round from his slumber. His eyes follow Ajax line of vision to me"Oh, Hi baby... err Cierra." He says in a soft sleepy voice.I begin to back away as
We arrive at Mrs. Matthews office after lunch. I am feeling a little nervous, I wonder if she knows. Oh! I wonder if she is one of them surely she must know she is running a school of wolves? Ajax knocks on the head teachers door and within seconds it is being opened. "Better late than never. I'm assuming that the three of you here is good news and I'm in the company of the future Luna and her Alpha's?" Mrs Matthews asks her eyebrow raised awaiting an answer."Actually we have only explained the basics but Cierra has agreed to let us show her what it would be like to live in our world and give us a chance before she makes any decisions." Ajax says back almost immediately." Okay, well then. I have just called your parents back in they're in the staff room having lunch they will be here any minute." As she finishes speaking the door opens and a tall man very similar looking to the twins and just as handsome comes striding in holding open the door for a beautiful woman with thick blon
We get to my room and I explain to the guys that I'd like to turn in early to be bright and ready for tomorrow's classes. They don't seem too pleased about leaving me but they don't protest either. Instead, they both give me a quick kiss and head off. I arrange my books for tomorrow and change into some light pink flannel pajamas, braid my hair down my back and crawl into bed. I look at the time, 8 pm it's still early so I grab my phone and decide to text Aries. Me: Hey, you still awake? Dots appear at the corner of my screen right away telling me he is writing out a reply. Aries: yes my love, you okay? Me: yeah I was just thinking about earlier... Aries: when? Me: When you commented on my outfit, then when you looked angry that I was talking with Titan Aries: OK love, what about it? Me: I don't think this can work if that's the way you are going to act just over an outfit and me talking with another guy, your friend no less I thought you had dropped that? Aries: Cierra, I'm
The rest of the group arrive and we all sit spread out on my bed and watch a film, the twins sit next to each other and I half sit on each of their laps. Each one has a hand on my thigh. - I wake up Saturday morning wrapped in the twins who are trapped against me by Tasha and Manda. I lay awake for a minute listening to everyone snoring away."Happy Birthday beautiful, want to go get coffees while everyone is asleep?" I look up to Aries and he kisses me on the nose, I nod my head and we both slowly climb out of the bed, pull on some joggers and a tee and make our way down to the cantene to get some coffees and muffins to take back up to everyone. When we get back up to my room everyone is awake and waiting for us.Ajax shoots Aries an annoyed look as we walk in and mumbles something under his breath. Aries clearly hears him as he let's out a low chuckle. I am really starting to get attached to these twins of mine. Ajax walks over, picks me up bridal style once I put the coffee down
I drift off to sleep five minutes in to the hour drive, my head leaning on Aries shoulder. Ajax seems to think I need more bonding time with Aries than I do him, Aries took the back seat with me. My Alpha's look so handsome today in their black combats and plain white tees, muscles evident through the fabric.I'm lightly shaken awake, the guys faces in mine. "We're here beautiful." I give myself a minute to wake up and start to move out of the car. The place is beautiful, a big old fashioned castle-looking building stands around 6 stories high. The car is pulled in to a kind of circle with a small garden in the middle, bright green grass, a stone path down the middle. Mini palm trees are lined up under the windows either side of the main entrance. The brick is a light sandy colour the building looks old and elegant. Just the look of this place is a little intimidating. On the grounds infront of the pack house are rows and rows of beautifully built houses with floor to veiling windo
I feel like a princess in this dress, it just sweeps the floor as I walk. Jasmine had thought of everything, nude wedges, undergarments matching my dress colour, no words der the guys said I wouldn't need to pack to come here! I have a surprise for my Alpha's tonight. That has a nice ring to it doesn't it? I think to myself... My Alpha's, now who's feeling possessive, I let out a light giggle at my own thoughts and am met with a questioning look on both the twins faces as we stand before the doors to enter the main pack dining room I think the twins called it. "Just thinking of something funny that's all, I think I'm ready." As I finish speaking the twins push the doors open and the room quietens, everyone at the tables stand and nod in respect. The twins lead me to a long table at the top of the dining room, decorations adorning the ceilings and walls of this room too in celebration of my birthday.We reach our table and the twins wait for me to sit then take the seats either side of
Chapter 33 Revenge is best served rejected I wake in my bed at the pack house, alone. The twins are back to their training regime early in the morning now and I miss waking up tangled in them and cosy. I am thankfully healthy and happy again though and looking forward to getting back to school with the heightened security in place. I'm a little disappointed to be changing some classes to fit with me not being away from my mates but they have also made some sacrifices for my safety and I can always retake the classes if I want to in the future. Argon hasn't been seen or heard from for a couple of weeks now and for that I am scared but so grateful, though the worry that he will most likely try again is still there and the disturbing images of that day have stayed with me popping up every now and again in the form of nightmares. We only have a few months of our last year of High school left and honestly, the whole experience has been hectic and somewhat traumatic. Titan has been assi
I was not initially planning on writing a book 2 for High Moon but from all the request for a second book and the feedback from the first and how people have grown to love the characters i feel inspired so heres a little snip of what is to come.........Teaser for book 2 coming mid 2023Chapter OneTitan"Can you smell that amazing smell? I thought we were having something lemon for dessert but it never arrived. I keep catching the most amazing fresh lemon scent and my wolf is jumping around in my mind but he doesn't know what's wrong." I say to Our Luna and my good friend Cici. I turn my head trying to locate the scent. My eyes narrow in on a petite redhead and I realise she is staring right back at me.“Mate” My wolf calls out through my lips as I hear the same coming from the beautiful woman across from me. We rush towards each other as though were the only people around, everything else seems to have faded away as we finally land in each others arms. I lean into her neck and inhal
The End"Welcome all to High Moon Pack, I am Alpha Ajax and this is my brother Alpha Aries, this right here is our amazing mate and Luna Cierra." Ajax's voice booms around the hall as he welcomes the hundreds of packs that have travelled to our territory for the ball and the chance of finding they are fated. We're standing at the top table staring out at the beautifully decorated room, white table cloths and chair covers, yellow roses give a colour pop in the centres of the many tables spread out in front of us, lemon chair sashes tied into a beautifully presented bow adding a stunning touch of elegance. The white and yellow tones make for a bright, peaceful, and happy look. The room appears much brighter than usual, white drapes cover the usual stone walls, and the place is unrecognisably stunning. Jas and I made the perfect colour match choices. Great to see after hours of staring at swatches, nearly making me cross-eyed.I am standing between Ajax and Aries as we welcome the pack,
Planning a PartyAriesAjax and I leave Cierra's grandparents in their room, her grandma is too funny. The love her grandparents have for her is refreshing having only met those two people in her family. Cierra won't allow us to meet her parents, she hasn't spoken to them since she left for school on her very first day at High Moon nor have they tried to contact her.Cierra seems ok with the silence from them, though I do think my crazy mum makes up for it. Cierra and our mother are like two peas in a pod, Cierra is the daughter she never had and is super excited to have now.I walk back towards our room with Ajax at my side as we laugh about the night and look forward to having our little Luna to ourselves for a little before she's back to being the busy, loving luna she is. We only get her for a couple of hours each night because work gets in the way for us all, we all have our duties to attend to keep the pack running and safe and Cierra does a lot of extra work which has earned he
LunaCierra"I am so worried for them to get here""You'll be fine my love." Aries tries to soothe me."Baby, you worry too much. They might freak out a little, but we know this is important to you. let's just take the jump and see how it goes." Ajax tells me.My grandparents are arriving at the pack house today and the ball was arranged to be held at High Moon now we're all back and settled and the renovations to make our pack more accommodating for present and future members are just finished so all systems are a go right now.The ball will be held in two days. The twins and I are meeting with my grandparents over lunch, we are going to make an effort to explain our world to them. I would love it if they would come and live on our pack lands with us. I am a ball of nerves, what if they hate what I am? What if they believe me and decide they want nothing more to do with me? All these thoughts swirl around my head making me feel queasy as I try to steady my hand to draw the perfect ey
RenovationsI wake up sandwiched between my mates, the memories of last night's love making float around my head bringing a smile to my still swollen lips. There isn't a part of the room we didn't make love in before we all showered together and gave in to our exhaustion wrapped up in each other's arms.Today I plan to spend some time with Rach. I sent out a quick mind link for Hazel, my assistant to take the morning off and come with us, she is more than happy to join us. I sit up as my Alpha's start to wake from their slumber both raking their eyes up my naked body to my lips. I giggle at them both, "You two are insatiable." I say, falling into the blue and grey orbs looking up at me with hunger written in them. The twins look hot this morning with a just fucked look and their tousled dark brown hair falling over their faces slightly but, I am beyond girl time. One thing my mind just can't let go of though... "Aries, who was the she-wolf I saw you laughing with in the gardens?" I as
Im sorry Alpha's'Cierra, where are you?''Baby, you OK?''Cici the twins said they can't find you, you alright b*tch?'I wake to the twins and Rach trying to reach me via mind link, I jump up when I realise sh*t I fell asleep, I was just supposed to take some time to myself before I went back and spoke to my Alpha's, I feel great and refreshed until I remember Aries and that she-wolf from earlier, the way she giggled and he smiled back, the flowing conversation instead of his usual grunts and one word answers to anyone that isn't me. Uck it just won't leave me, this dread feeling in the pit of my stomach.I gather my thoughts and link Rach.'Hey girl, tell them to stop shouting I'm good. I just fell asleep.''Where? They said they checked your room' Rach replies through the link.'I'm not in our room, I need some headspace. I'll let them know to make their way there now, we need to talk some shit out. I freaked at them when they came home for leaving me and now I feel bad. Girl time
The return homeThe smell of blood is strong in the air as i feel something land next to me, I take a look and am staring in to the lifeless eyes of the b*stard that tried to take me for himself, Voux head shoots up to the source of the growl, I tip my head back to see my mates standing above us, they do not look happy to see me, well not like this anyway.Ajax and Aries stand there all but foaming at the mouth glaring between Voux and I.I smile and place my hand on Voux's chest to nudge him to let me up, he seems to register as he moves away and lends me a hand off the floor though the look on his face tells me he is scared for his life.I step to Ajax and Aries and place a hand on each of their arms before they can even consider opening their mouths."My loves, this is Voux and we were training. I clearly need to train harder because he just bested me, please take your jealous arses upstairs and let's discuss your journey and then the fact you left me here for three days." I say pu
Training with the lunaAjax and Aries left 3 days ago to find Argon. I'm expecting them back any day now, surely fuelled by the rage that he dared to take their Luna from their pack house under their noses. It shouldn't take them long to hunt him down.I miss my mates and Ersa has been whimpering in my head pining for them since an hour after they left, soppy ass wolf is cracking me up.Hey human, we share the same mind. I can hear your thoughts and I know all these feelings of sadness aren't just mine.I laugh inwardly at Ersa. She's so touchy sometimes.Hazel and I have been working away, she is a lovely woman and as I expected, great to have in my corner this lady has brains for days and I have to admit it's nice to have the babies around the office every now and again they're a cute little distraction from the gruelling work when I need it.Deanna the baby's nanny adores them and dotes on them as though they were her own grandchildren and Hazel is more than happy with the arrangem
