“I’ve heard about you,” the woman said. She looked around my mother’s age but in her chilling eyes shone ancient wisdom. “Call me Serena.” She put out a hand for a handshake so I shook her hand, fighting down the cold that spread in my stomach. “Nice to meet you, Serena,” I forced myself to say. “I
How could she speak of my conception with such a bland expression!? “As someone who our benevolent goddess tells the future ever so often, I feel I have something in common with you, who can dream the future. It’s rare for the oracle to have anything in common with others. That is why I rushed here
“He knows something.” Victoria wrung her hands together as she stared at me with eyes shining with guilt. “Did you say anything to him?” I snarled. She took a step back, hurt flashing in her eyes. ‘Is there any reason to be a rude child?’ Kalea asked with annoyance in her voice. ‘She promised not
‘This forest belongs to the king’s pack so nothing dangerous can enter.’ ‘Kalea,’ I muttered, the awful feeling in my guts doubling. ‘Turn back.’ I tried to shift back but she resisted. ‘Kalea, are you possessed!?’ I screamed at my wolf. ‘Shift back right now!’ ‘Why? You never let me come out to p
“My daughter almost died so someone better starts talking. What happened!?” He exclaimed. “Daughter? What daughter? Who here is your daughter!?” Jack broke the silence with an incredulous stare at Hawke. “Are you trying to claim the Luna Queen as your child?” Ella shuffled with unease behind me. “
“I am sorry,” Killian muttered. “I vowed to protect you but I keep failing.” “It’s not your fault I wandered into the forest without an escort,” I said but he shook his head. “Your home should be safe for you. You should not have to move around with an escort or a guard or whatever.” He tapped his
Unfortunately, I could not get the oracle to curse Hawke as curses often last until the third generation which meant that if she cursed him, myself and my kids would also be cursed. It was truly unfortunate. “How did the issue with the priests go?” I asked as Ella poured tea. “It is all good. Clea
“What about Luna Grace?” She asked. “If she causes trouble here, Dark Moon will answer for her crimes.” Truly, Red Lake did not bother me. I may never forgive them but I forgot about them already. “If that’s all you came here to say, you may leave.” I waved her away and she bowed as she left, an in
“Have I ever told you that you are like my fountain of good fortune?” He asked. “Feeling sentimental?” I asked and he nodded. “Very sentimental. I looked at Seth and Victoria today and I just – I could not believe it. As I have told you, most things in my life always go wrong. A family is somethin
“Seth, mama and dada have something for you,” Killian and I said to Seth one day. “Is it a baby?” He asked with wide eyes. “Yeah,” I smiled at the little boy and his eyes lit up. “Really? There’s a baby? Where my baby?” He looked around, jumped up and circled us as if we were hiding a baby behind
When we named him Seth, it was in remembrance of the only family Killian ever had before I came along but Cordelia seemed to think it was for her. She begged for my baby’s forgiveness to the point where I got uncomfortable and walked away with him. He may be named Seth but it did not mean he was a r
“Killian, the baby is here!” I screamed, startling my mate. “What?” His eyes widened and his fingers paused buttoning his shirt. “Where is she?” It was a funny question but I did not have time to laugh so I swallowed thickly and tried to waddle to the delivery room next door. “Hey, where are you go
“I am not sleepy,” I said and he pursed his lips. “Can I read a book at least? Or – Or we could choose baby names together.” I gave him a hopeful look. Since Killian found out I was pregnant, he had all but forbidden me from doing anything asides existing but when I talked about baby names, he lit
A few days ago, Hawke was found dead in his cell after weeks of him trying to eat himself as he turned rogue. In the early hours of this morning, Luna Grace ended her life by repeatedly stabbing her throat with a fork until she bled out. That was after she spent the past week screaming and crying ou
“I said the same thing!” She exclaimed with an awkward smile. While she stared at me without saying anything, I tried my best to make my brain function properly. “What do you mean – pregnant? I – What?” My mouth dropped open and the towel in my hand fell to the ground. “A baby?” At that moment, I h
Hawke would not be the first Alpha from Dark Moon that dreamt of taking the throne for himself but he was the most brazen of them in all of history. Dark Moon had a penchant to feel superior and my father let this one’s bravado grow. “Are you done gloating?” He asked and I laughed. “This would be
*KILLIAN* Despite the mountain of work awaiting me, I squeezed out time to see Hawke. For a long time, I pondered how to clip his wings, how to bring him down from his high horse and see him suffer. Having him where I wanted him made my steps light and my body weightless. His gaze burned into me w
