CHAPTER 19: HARMONY

~ Harper’s POV ~

I stopped to take in the sight. It is like I walked right into the scene of a fairy tale.

“It’s so soothing isn’t it.” I heard a soft voice. I raised my eyes in the direction of where the voice had come from. I stepped to the right just a little and angled my head trying to see around the fountain. I saw a swing and in it there was an older woman swaying back and forth. She had long silver hair. She was wearing a lovely sun dress. Her feet were bare. She was smiling at me warmly; her eyes were welcoming.

“I am sorry, I didn’t know anyone else was here. I was exploring the grounds. I hope I didn’t disturb you.” I said, giving an apologetic smile back to her.

“You are no bother at all. I am happy to see someone else walking through my garden. I hope you enjoy it just as I do. Please, come and have a seat.”

I walked over to where the lady had just stopped swinging. She patted the seat next to her inviting me to sit down. I smiled at her and lowered

My heart is still fluttering due to his proximity to me. “Can we talk for a moment? I think there are some things that need to be said.” He asked me.“Of course. I guess there are things that we need to discuss.” He took my hand in his, causing what felt like electricity to shoot through my body. He led me to a round rod iron table that was black with only two chairs. One was positioned across from the other. It looked old but well kept. He pulled a chair out for me. Reluctantly releasing his hand, I sat down. He took the seat across from me. Little fairies had decided to join us. Flying around in all directions. Their colors were adding to the already beautiful setting of the garden. Illuminated blues, purples, pinks, yellows, and greens among other colors glittered all around us. I loved how the fairi

    CHAPTER 21: KEEPING MY WORD~ Gabriel’s POV ~She didn’t even pull back when I closed the distance between us leaning in licking her bottom lip, teasing it with my tongue. I captured it between my teeth, softly biting and sucking. She let out a soft moan telling me that she was enjoying what I was doing. I reluctantly broke away from her. “Did you like that?” I asked her with a grin. My voice was breathy. She nodded at me and leaned in again, seeming eager for more. I stood from the table. I grabbed her hands and pulled her up to me. Then I wrapped my hands around her waist and pulled her into my chest. She slid her arms around my neck. I dipped my head down and hungrily took her mouth in mine giving her a proper kiss this time. She moaned lowly into my mouth and began to follow my lead. Her hands began to trail down my shoulders and around my back. I was trying to stay gentle and romantic but my desire for her took over. My hands seemed to have a mind of their own. My fingers found

    CHAPTER 22: WE DEFEND OUR MEMBERS~ Gabriel’s POV~After the rogues somehow breached our border walls, I decided to walk Harper back to her room myself. It was nice walking back to the packhouse with her hand in mine. It felt right, like I found a part of me that I didn’t know I was missing. When we arrived at the door to her bedroom, she turned to face me. She stood on the tips of her toes and gave me a soft kiss. “Thank you for defending me tonight, though I wish you would just let me handle Thane on my own. I didn’t come here to have someone fight my battles for me.” Harper rested her head against my chest as she spoke to me.“Harper, you know I can’t do that. You are a part of this pack now and we defend our members. Not only that, but I care about you. To ask me not to defend you is like asking me not to defend myself, because to me it feels like we are a part of each other.” Harper looked up to me and gave me a soft smile that didn’t reach her eyes. I can tell that she is conc

  • I Am Not Your Victim   What Are You Wearing?

    CHAPTER 23: WHAT ARE YOU WEARING?~ Harper’s POV~ Waking up the next morning, the first thing that crossed my mind was the way Gabriel kissed me. I had only ever kissed one guy before last night, but it was nothing like the kiss Gabriel and I shared. He kissed me like he didn’t care if anyone saw. The thought of the way the desire was building between us last night made me shiver. I wanted him to claim me so badly. I don’t even want to think about being with someone who is not him. Things shifted in my mind the moment he admitted his feelings to me. I got undressed and took a quick shower. I brushed my teeth and dried my hair. Again, I pulled it up into a messy bun on the top of my head. I had training again this morning. I decided to apply some makeup. I know, it’s ridiculous to wear makeup during a workout and training but I wanted to look good for Gabe. I tried to keep it natural looking, but I added extra mascara making my already long lashes look even longer. I had walked over

    CHAPTER 24: SHE IS CONFIDENT, BUT SO AM I~ Harper’s POV ~Kai turned and walked away, leaving me and Gabriel standing there alone. “I thought you and Tanner were going to evaluate me. Also, that display with Samantha. Is there anything that I need to know or be worried about?” I bit my lip worried about his reply to my question. He looked down at me and gave me a warm smile. He placed his fingers under my chin and raised my head up so our eyes could meet.“I just said that because I don’t want Samantha to be your charge. I want you to stay next to me.” He said, flashing me a big smile. “There is nothing about Samantha that you need to be worried about. She is just mad about the way that I ended things and wants to try to continue building a relationship that’s not even there. She already knows that I’m pursuing someone else. I don’t want to hide what you and I have, but I wanted to make sure you were okay with it being public before I said anything. I really want to take things slow

    CHAPTER 25: WHO EXACTLY IS THIS GIRL?~ Harpers POV~Something told me this wasn’t going to be a clean fight as Tanner was telling us the rules. A crowd had gathered around the ring. I heard pack members whispering. They all thought that I was going to lose to Samantha. I don’t know her skill set yet. She may be very good. But there’s only one way to find out. The thing is no one here has ever seen me fight before. And if there was anything that I was confident about, it was my skills in combat. My father and mother were the top of their class and highly ranked warriors. I bounced on my feet trying to loosen up before the match began. Samantha looked at me like she was ready to tear my heart out. I gave her a sweet smile back. Hopefully she realized that I was being condescending. Once Tanner was done explaining the rules. Samantha and I both took a defensive stance. We circled each other around the ring. I’m not going to be the first one to attack. I feel like it’s always best to le

    CHAPTER 26: THE TERMINAL STONE~ Gabriel’s POV ~After training I got cleaned up and called a meeting with Kai and Tanner. Kai was back home from being out of town visiting family. Kelly let me know this morning that my office is finally finished. It’s on the first floor down the same hallway as my fathers near the dining hall. Sitting at my desk, I developed an outline of things that needed to be covered in this meeting today. I wasn’t waiting long before a firm knock sounded on my door. “Come on in.” I said. Tanner walked in first followed by Kai who shut the door behind him.“Wow, this is nice. You are spoiling yourself a little bit aren’t you Mr. Alpha of the Harmony Moon Pack. By the way, when will my office be completed?” Tanner said with a smirk.“What the hell do you even need an office for Tanner?” I raised my eyebrows at him.“I’m an important beta. I need an important space.” He said jokingly. He was trying to put a serious look on his face without laughing. Kai was stil

Or should we keep walking around like we have no idea that you two have a thing…” Tanner said to me with one eyebrow raised. I laughed at him. The thought of Harper and I having a “thing” lightened my mood.“Ok, since she and I were able to clarify things yesterday, I guess I can fill you two in.” Tanner grinned from ear to ear. More than ready to hear what I was about to say. I shook my head at him and rolled my eyes. “Since the moment I first met Harper, I have been completely wrapped up in her.” Tanner looked at me confused.“That doesn’t make a bit of sense, Gabe. I am going to need you to be more specific with what you are trying to say.” Tanner said with a look that would remind you of a doctor that was trying to diagnose you with a serious illness.

Did you want to be bothered with Hades? Neither did I.” I said back to him. “You're lucky we grew close to the girl from birth. I wouldn’t let this pass for just anyone. Their powers would have come eventually without your interference.” He said back to me. “Yeah, then we would have all been down there fighting to send Hades back to hell! All you want to do is sit on that throne and watch everything like it’s a soap opera. Loosen up, will you! We are going to see the first baby Lycan being born, and I can’t WAIT!” He rubbed his face like he was exhausted because of me, but I saw his grin.

    CHAPTER 75: LET THIS BE AN EXAMPLE~Tanner’s POV~Holy shit balls! Gabriel is glowing bright white! I looked over to Kai and he was just as shocked as I was. I watched as a ball of lightning and wind moved around him rapidly. Even his eyes were bright white. He began to pound on the barrier again. I’m sure Thane is about to get his ass handed to him. I watched Gabe. “I *POUND* SAID *POUND* DON’T *POUND* TOUCH HER! * BOOM! *” The barrier dissolved around Thane and his warlock. “HELL, YEAH GABE!” Dragons roared overhead and allies all around us erupted in cheers. Thane’s eyes were that of shock, disbelief, and anger. He shifted back into his beast and met Gabe before he could make it to Harper. “SET HADES FREE!” Thane shouted to his warlock. “But sir. The mark?” “DO IT NOW!” Thane growled out to the warlock. He took his attention off Harper and started moving his hands in ways that only magical beings do. This time it was black smoke that started rising up fr

    CHAPTER 74: GABRIEL GET UP~ Harper’s POV ~I couldn’t get to Gabriel because I was helping all the warriors that were overtaken by Thane’s army. We were caught off guard. Somehow Thane caught our informant. I ran through flaming bodies trying to tackle and kill every enemy in my sight. I moved to rip the neck out of a wolf that had one of our warriors pinned down. I helped up my warrior and moved to the next. I kept glancing toward Gabriel. He was holding his own and giving Thane hell. I was caught off guard by an unshifted enemy warrior coming at me with a dagger. I was able to shift out of the way of his blade, but barely. I jumped back putting some distance between myself and the man with the dagger. I heard a loud growl, I blinked, and Thane landed in front of me grabbing the warrior up by the throat. “WHAT DID I SAY ABOUT NOT HURTING HER! YOU INCOMPATENT AND WORTHLESS PIECE OF SHIT!” Thane’s movements were fast. He stood the warrior up and sliced his head off in one swift m

    CHAPTER 73: THEY KNEW WE WERE COMING~ Selene (The Moon Goddess) ~ “DON’T TELL ME THAT I CAN’T BE INVOLVED WHEN MY CHILDREN ARE GOING UP AGAINST HADES!” I yelled out. These deities think we should never get involved. Usually I feel the same way, but my children can’t fight Hades! “It’s not a good idea Selene. We don’t want to disrupt the balance.” I screamed to the top of my lungs. “AHHH… What balance? If Hades is released, and his purpose is to take over, then what balance will there be left?” I asked. “Selene, you will not get involved! THAT IS FINAL!” I am thoroughly pissed right now. “Sometimes, I feel like there’s no use in even being a deity if I can’t help my children when they need it most.” When it comes to our creations, we know the direction of their lives are supposed to go. When deities get involved, outcomes get shuffled, and destinies get changed. I hope Harper and Gabriel can handle things down there. Hmmm... If I can't be there in person, ma

Good, I’ll be able to pick out a cute lingerie set. Hmmm… what color? Oh, these are cute. It was a pretty red lace bra and pantie set. I really love this one. I quickly put them on and got dressed in a pair of shorts and one of my tee shirts. I tied a knot in the bottom of my tee-shirt, which made it tighter and pulled up just a little to show some of my midriff. I blow dried my hair and applied a small amount of makeup. I guess I am trying a little harder today. I want to look good for Gabriel. I ruined my look yesterday with all my tears. After finishing my makeup. I looked in the mirror, this will do. I walk back into Gabriel’s room and walk to his window to look out. It looks like it’s going to be a beautiful day. I heard Gabriel’s door open and turned to see a steaming hot man fresh from the training field standing before m

    CHAPTER 71: BETA OR NOT, I’LL KILL YOU~Harper’s POV~I was in the dining hall when I heard the loud hum from Gabriel’s truck driving up and entering the garage. My heart rate accelerated, and Mia was purring in my head. I thought I was ready to talk to Gabriel, but I just realized that I’m not. I started sweating, and I felt like running to my room to avoid him. He is okay, that is all I wanted to know. I turned to walk up the stairs when I heard the front packhouse door open. I froze in place, not turning to look behind me. His scent of cedar and pine was begging me to run to him, but I refused. I am not going to throw myself at a man who has been kissing another WOMAN! My anger returned and felt new at that moment. I heard Kai talking with pack members who were welcoming him home. Tanner must have entered the dining hall to welcome them home. “Kai, it’s good to see you, man. Looks like you didn’t die.” I heard Tanner say to Kai. “Yeah, well… I can say I almost did a few t

Kai and I walked back through the swamp on our way to the witch’s hut. I have the dagger in my back pocket. She said I needed to bring it back to her once I have it. I turn to Kai. “You kill me if I attempt to sleep with her.” I say through gritted teeth. “I’ll smack you around a few times, don’t worry.” Kai said to me. He was eager to get in a few hits without my Lycan knocking him the fuck out. Both he and Tanner always liked to get free licks on me. This one I would happily give Kai. I need my ass kicked for what I put Harper through. I called and left a message a few minutes ago. I had to stop at a payphone, I know old school, right? We had to land outside of the town and walk the rest of the way. I couldn’t fly into town on a dragon’s back and expect the human military not to be aft

You're okay!” I didn’t even see Harper coming before she threw her arms around my neck. “Tanner, I have been so worried about you. I was afraid you were never going to wake up!” She began to cry. Suddenly, a strange humanoid creature starts smacking her hands away from me. “Okay, Okay, OKAY! I’m going! You know I have been waiting days for him to wake up!” Harper said to the creature. It came up to feel my head and hand me something to drink. “Drink, for pain.” It said to me. I looked at Harper to make sure it was ok. She nodded her head. I drank the liquid down and frowned at the taste of it. It was quite salty, yuk! “Where are we?” I whispered to Harper. She giggled at me. She didn’t bother whispering.

Truth is, I don’t know how easy it will be to get the weapon. These dragons may not be willing to just hand it over. I will kill every last one of them if I have to. Nothing will keep me from protecting Harper.Kai and I finally make it to the base of the mountain where the cave entrance is. There are two large men standing guard. Something tells me that they are not just men. Their eyes are glowing red. They are definitely similar to Thane’s
