Howling Hearts Nothing To Hide
I stood at the all too familiar pack doors that closed off the view. I took a deep breath as the doors opened.A wild bouquet of flowers that evoked the rugged California landscape of the packs wildlife that had a mix of beautiful white flowers and dandelions. It matched so perfectly since all of this started with a wish. I no longer felt guilty about wishing Asher to be mine. If I hadn’t, I wouldn’t have run away and I wouldn’t have met Lucian. I shook my head, getting rid of the thoughts of what might have happened if things didn’t go like this. I then looked forward and saw a tunnel of silk leading the way whilst covering me from the eyes of my mate and the pack. I took one step forward and started walking.When I turned the corner, I was met with such beauty my eyes couldn’t believe it a white wisteria garland stood in front of me. I walked through and was met by those same flowers hanging from what seemed to be the air, causing a mystical and magical feeling.When my eyes met

“Lucian im pregnant and carrying the future alpha of this pack”, I heard her say between the beats of my heart that was like a drum in my ear. I looked over at Lucian and his face wasn’t shocked. He placed his alpha mask on, making his emotions disappear into thin air. “Riley, me and you both know that child isn’t mine”, he said coldly.“Oh Lucy, no need to hide from it anymore. I know you’ve planned the ceremony and we don’t have to let it go to waste. I’ll walk down the isle next and we can mark each other.” My jaw dropped to the floor.Was she really this delusional? As I was looking around the room, trying to find the missing pieces to the story. I realized no one was saying anything, the birds were no longer chirping and the whispers outside had died down.I looked at them again and saw that time was frozen. Did I do this? “No my dear child, I did”, the all too familiar voice said from behind me. I looked down the hall and saw her beauty radiating from her. Her skin was norma

“W…What are you talking about”, She said. I looked at the elder who was trying to read me. “I can read minds and stop time. May I read hers so that we can get to the bottom of this without the back and forth bickering?” The elder nodded his head slowly unsure of his answer.“Good, since I will need a witness to make sure no one doubts what I see. Elder, will you please hold my hand and I will lead you on this journey”He nodded his head again slowly, still very unsure of what was about to happen. I grabbed his hand and went to place my hand on her cheek again. She stepped back with nervousness lining her body language.“That’s impossible. No one can do that” she spat“Riley, I can do that, but if there is nothing to hide from your side, then we can see the truth that you claim you are speaking. If not and you refuse, we will all know the answer and continue with the ceremony. The choice is yours”. I said in a cold and anoyyed tone .She stood still for a few minutes before she hesita

My jaw felt like it hung down to the floor. I felt Lucian grab my hand protectively before moving me behind him. I could tell that he was royally pissed.I looked over at the elder to see if he was going to do something. His eyes were big and filled with shock at first but then he blinked it away and regained his composure. “May I ask what the son of Zeus is doing here?” Just as Aiden was about to say something, Lucian flew forward with a punch that hit his jaw.Aiden fell to the ground because of the unexpected impact. His smug face, however, didn’t falter for even a split second.A single drop of blood trailed down his chin before he wiped it away with his forearm. “Finally, the big proud alpha grew a pair” Aiden said in a mocking tone.A growl erupted from Lucian’s chest before he got into a fighting stance. Aiden quickly jumped up onto his feet before he also did the same. My heart was pounding out of control at that point. “Hey lover boy. How about we fight for the hand of Scar

I looked over to Lucian. “I want to be with Lucian forever”, I said, without hesitation. His left eye was swollen and his jaw had a trail of blood along with a splatter of blood over the right side of his face. He was breathing heavily and was in bad shape. When I looked back at my Mom, I saw her smile brightly. “OK, then it settled”, She turned to the elder. “My daughter will mark Lucian today. Now please don't make me come back here again”, she said before stepping out of the pack house with a walk of pride.Both Lucian and Aiden fell to the ground and I went to help Lucian and support his body weight. The man with the star-like eyes walked up to Lucian before he held onto his jaw. He turned Lucian's head left and then right, inspecting the damage. “Not too bad son”, he said, and my eyes grew in shock. “But you could do better”, he said with a disdainful voice.My eyes grew even wider in shock. At this point, it felt like they might even pop out. Was he Lucian's true father?As h

“Shall we continue then?” The elder asked, looking between the two of us with a soft look. We both nodded in unison without breaking eye contact. The elder cleared his throat and the crowd went silent. “Lucian Silvermane, do you take this woman as your mate, allowing her to mark you and become one with you, your second half for all eternity. To love her, to comfort her, to guide her and to honor her for as long as you both shall live?” “I do”, Lucian said, smiling brightly. “Scarlet Bloodmoon, do you take this man as your mate, allowing him to mark you and become one with you, your second half for all eternity. To love him, to comfort him, to guide him and to honor him for as long as you both shall live?” “I do”, I said, with my voice squeaking and a tear falling down my cheek from all the joy that was filling each inch of my body.Struggling to contain itself. “You can say your vows now”, The elder said, knowing that we had prepared ourselves. Lucian nodded his head before he c

As the elders ended the ceremony, our parents came running to us, hugging us and welcoming us into the different families. Whilst I hugged my dad, I saw my birth-mom and that man from earlier getting ready to leave. I quickly made my way to them before they could. It felt like it was too early for them to leave. I just had too many questions and too few answers. “wait” I called out. My mom then turned around, revealing a fairly curious look plastered on her face. “What is it my dear child?” She asked in an inquisitive tone “I just have so many questions. You cant just drop this big info bomb on me and then leave.” She then cupped my face and caressed my cheek with her thumb. All accompanied by a caring, loving look in her eyes.“What is it that you want to know most, my child?” “Well, why did you send me off?” She sighed at my question and dropped her arms beside her.“Zeus wanted you to marry his son Aiden. I said that I wouldn’t force you upon it. We fought terribly because of

I genuinely couldn’t be nearly as powerful as she is making me out to be. I have to be dreaming. I pinched myself to make sure and well, the truth ended up slapping me so hard in my face that I was entirely unsure of how to undress it. “So tell me why exactly, he is so interested in this power that I don’t even know I have?” I said, raising my eyebrow. “He wants Aiden’s son to be the most powerful god there is so that no one can go up against him.So that he could rule for all eternity while Zeus brainwashes him.Now that you have marked Lucian instead, Zeus will try much harder to break you apart. For your child might be the most powerful being to have ever existed. A child that might hold the power to control the whole universe.”Everything became as clear as clean water running down a mountain. Bringing back all the puzzle pieces together, forming the picture and gluing it all in place.“For Zeus it is all about power”, She added, making a shiver run down my spine.Lucian squee

Howling Hearts Lineage *bonus chapter/last chapter*
18 years later:We danced away under the moonlight after getting away from all the drama, tears and hormones that seemed to flood the pack hall.It was mating ball season again and honestly it was overwhelming each year.So Lucian and I had our own little tradition to escape all the chaos and just enjoy ourselves under the moonlight dancing away all the worries that might have crowded up leading to this massive event. This year had been more stressful than all the years before since we were hosting the mate ball.It was allot of planning and a lot of irritating young she wolves that wanted to convince me about being my sons mate and if not that they would make the perfect Luna for the pack.That they would be the best option. But what had worried me most was the fear of my son experiencing the same thing I experienced the day I thought I met my mate“As per usual the two live birds have sneaked away from the party” I heard Riley’s voice in from behind me. “You’d thought that the hos

− I sat in my room staring at the crib where Xander laid fast asleep. I kept listening to his soft breathing just to make sure he is ok. I heard a sparkling sound and soon the moon goddess appeared next to his crib. Her face was filled with love and care.She put her hand on his cheek and a smile spread across his face. I guess he was dreaming about milk or cuddles since he didn’t know much else.“This is the future rules of mount Olympus and I think that’s you are the perfect mother to raise him. Cherish him. And love him.” She said in a whisper.She then walked over to me and cupped my cheek. “I am proud of you my child you have conquered what others would deem impossible. And you turned out to be a great and strong young Luna.When you lay on your death bed of this life I will come fetch you and your mate to take up your place as the rulers of mount Olympus until Xander breathes his last breath. Until then I will keep your seat nice and warm” She said in a caring tone before kis

Days have passed after Riley’s initiation. She has thanked me more times than what was needed.I still felt a bit awkward as my memories drew back to the time when I wandered her mind. That door of intimacy that I could feel Lucian was a part of.I knew it was something of the past and wouldn’t blame him for what had happened but what would bother me was if he lied about it. He told me nothing ever happened between the two of them.I sat at in the pack cafeteria scanning over the large crowd of my pack members all sitting and chatting as they shove food down to their hungry stomachs.Others cheered as they knocked their beer cans onto one another in celebration.Then I spotted Riley sitting among a bunch of she wolfs al who were in awe of little dawn.Her beauty was definitely something to catch the eyes of all around even at such a young age.I then slowly moved my eyes over to my mate whom was sitting next to me drinking a glass of orange juice.When his eyes met mine he placed his

“What was that all about” I heard that husky handsome voice ask beside my ear, making my legs wobble as his breath touched my neck.“Whatever do you mean Alpha” I said turning to face him keeping eye contact, showing no fear.I could see the lust swimming angrily within his eyes. He straightened out his posture and places his hands behind his back. “Out” he demanded with his alpha aura spreading across the room.Layla and Damian disappeared so quickly out of our sights and in a blink of an eye I heard the elevator doors open and close.A smile grin crept up onto Lucian’s lips. Plaguing them with all the dirty thoughts wondering within his mind as well as mine.He took a step closer to me and at this point I was looking up at him my chin almost touching his chest and my breath heavy just thinking about what may follow.The small distance between us was killing me. It was just enough for us to barely touch but not enough to ease the warmth that lingered between my legs.The warmth that
Howling Hearts Stay
It’s been days since I’ve gotten out of my own prison. It’s been both heartbreaking and warming at the same time.My mother hasn’t reached out to me yet and although my father has been coming around every day to check up on both me and his grandsons wellbeing my mother hasn’t come at all.My father kept saying that it’s not because she doesn’t love me or care for me but she is mourning.I knew he was right and honestly I loved her and understood where she was coming from. Losing your child at the hands of your other child is hard to wrap your mind around.My pack however congratulated me on defeating our enemy all by myself.I gained a lot of respect from all of the high ranking warriors of our pack including our gamma which in return made me proud of myself too.Although most of it was my wolf without her we would’ve probably still been stuck within a big mess.I blew over my steaming hot coffee looking out over the Los angles view from our living room.I sat snug in my mates lap lea

Scarlet:“Scarlet” I heard my mom’s voice call out to me I lifted my head from my knees and scanned the waters that laid just below my toes. I didn’t see her at all so I just automatically assumed it was in my all in my head.I prepared myself for the next scene of her shouting and screaming at me for killing her only daughter and hating me for it. “Scarlet” I heard her voice once more call out to me. It was soft and gentle. A caring tone filled with worry.“Come back to me, my dear.”I looked down at the water before me and saw her worried face reflecting from it. Her eyes were sad and the bags under them seemed like the same endless darkness that plagued my heart. “It wasn’t your fault dear” Her voice cracked at the word fault. I could only think that she was recalling the moment she saw Saige dead in the woods. “Scarlet darling”My father stepped closer, placing his arm around my mother’s waist pulling her into his chest whilst she wept.A tear streamed down my cheek filled w
Howling Hearts To Blame or Not to Blame
Lucian:I stood in front of the door thinking everything over in my head wondering what to do in this situation.Maybe I should get help what if they refuse to help Scarlet. Have they already decided to abandon her?Maybe it’s too early… they are still mourning the death of one daughter I can’t just throw this news at them and expect them to take the news well or be efficient at bringing her back.Although in my opinion its way overdue she’s been away from me for far too long. Suddenly I felt a pat on my back and shot my head to see whomever it came from.An arrogant smile stared back at me his eyes icy blue eyes somehow felt warmer and then I realized his canines were back.The two empty spaces that were so prominent and a soothing sight to me had been filled up.A shiver went down my spine. Oh for goddess sake. You know what moon goddess you’ll owe me after I save your daughter and I think a break will be the least you could do.I sighed as the memories replayed in my mind.“Please
Howling Hearts Good Riddance
I watched as my daughter single-handedly disarmed and dismembered the guards that were sent to attack her.Aiden became more furious as the number of guards went down. He started pushing guards out of his way.When he came face to face with Scarlet whose chest was moving up and down from her heavy breathing.They stared at one another and the hatred for each other rolled off their aura in waves. The tension was high.“I guess I’ve got to deal with the trash on my own” Aiden said and scarlet growled into his face with her canines inches from his nose.Aiden’s eyes grew green as he summoned vines from the ground tying off Scarlets feet.She tried to claw her way out but it was all in vain. I took a step forward and suddenly felt an hand grip my wrist.I tried to loosen myself from the iron grip but when I realized it wasn’t going to happen I turned to see Astraeus shaking his head.“This has to happen Selene you cannot intervene”“Astraeus she’s alone and within her late stages of pregn
Howling Hearts Prison of my own mind
Scarlet:I laid in the middle of a pool filled with dark liquid. I sat in the on a stone and looked over the dark waters trying to see something or anything a place to swim to.But instead I just saw the never ending dark liquid vanishing into more darkness. I sat on this rock looking at the name engraved on to it with quilt swallowing me up whole.“Saige”. It read in cursive. I kept remembering the heart wrenching howl of my mother when she realized Saige was dead.As well as the agony that fell among her face.I hated myself for doing that to her. Removing her first and only born daughter. I thought about myself and how I would’ve felt.I would’ve hated the person that took my son from me. And I could only assume that she felt the same.And honestly I don’t blame her. I felt guilt for placing her in that position not for killing Saige and not for protecting my unborn child.I was still sad about her death and I did love her even though I didn’t want to. My emotions where conflicting
