CHAPTER 50: YOU WERE MADE FOR ME~ Gabriel’s POV ~ I picked Harper up bridal style and laid her down on my bed. “Stay here.” I told her as I walked to my wine cabinet and pulled out a cold bottle of my favorite white wine. I grabbed a couple of tall wine glasses and placed them on a table near my bed. I turned down the lights and put on some soft music. Harper giggled at me trying to set the mood. I know she thinks I want to just get to the sex... and I do, but I want to take my time with her. I made no effort with girls before. I didn’t have to; they basically threw themselves at me. Most wanted to be the Luna of my pack, or they wanted me because of money. I looked over to Harper as her eyes followed me. She quickly looked down toward her hands on her lap. She was chewing on her bottom lip, she was nervous. I went over and poured our wine and I handed Harper’s glass to her. “Chardonnay?” She asked me. “Yes, it’s my favorite. Do you like it?” Harper took a sip and licked her li
CHAPTER 51: ARE YOU READY, BABY?~ Harper’s POV ~I moved away once my mouth reached his chest. I stood and he quickly pulled me close. He grabbed the back of my head and slammed his mouth into mine. He slid his tongue in between my lips, and I followed his lead. It was a hot and sexy kiss that ignited fireworks inside my body. I quickly pulled away and lowered myself back down. I am once again eye level with his cock. I reach for the top of his pants and pull them down. He stepped out of them and kicked them to the side. “Are you ready baby?” Gabriel asked me. I nod to him, and he releases his hard cock from his boxers. The moment he pulled it out I gasped. How is that thing going to fit in me? I look up to Gabriel unsure what to do. He is grinning down at me. “Wrap your hand around it baby.” I do as he says. He then puts his hand over mine and starts moving it up and down. “Good, keep doing that. Now do you want to taste me?” I am scared, but I nod my head yes. Not waiting on him t
CHAPTER 52: WE ARE NOT LIKE OTHER WOLVES~ Gabriel’s POV ~Harper lifted off me and leaned down to give me a light kiss. “What the fuck was that?” I ask Harper. She gave me a look. “Why are you asking me, I have never done that before. Was it not normal?” Our wolves have pulled back, and our bodies are now normal. The marks from our claws were already healed. “Hell no, it wasn’t normal.” She looked hurt. “No. No, baby. It's not like that.” I told harper. “I’ll get better.” She said to me. “Harper that was the best sex that I have ever had in my entire life!” Her eyes lit up. “Really?” she asked me nervously. “Hell, yeah! What happened to my little aggressive wolf from a second ago?” I teased her. She blushed and looked away. “Really, you are so damn hot.” She giggled. “Did I hurt you?” I asked her. “No, it all felt...so good.” She said back to me. Just good? I’ll have to work on that. “You're losing your edge Gabe.” Mika laughed in my head. “Mika, I thought you were asleep
CHAPTER 53: The Change~Harper’s POV ~I stand from my sitting position and stretch my limbs. It has been a demanding last two days. I miss Gabriel. I also miss Mia. I wonder what’s going on. I know she is still with me because I can feel her. It just feels like she is resting. I meet Gabriel by the packhouse entrance. I blush when I see his eyes on me. His gaze alone can set my body ablaze. I bite my lip and continue to approach him. He walks toward me and slides his arms around my waist pulling me close to him. “Damn, I missed you.” He leans down to take in my scent. I also take this time to delight in his invigorating scent. “We have seen each other around. It’s not like we have been completely separated for two days.” I said to him. “I want you with me all the time. One minute away from you feels like an hour! Harper, you’re my drug and I can’t get enough of you. Have you thought about moving into my room?” I have, but I am not sure a
CHAPTER 54: RISE OF THE LYCANS~ Gabriel’s POV~ I could feel my muscles growing stronger. My sight, hearing, and sense of smell became 10X better than it was before. My claws started to extend; they were different. They were longer and sharper. My fangs extended as my snout grew. My wolf’s black fur tore through my skin as my paws took shape. I shut my eyes until the shift was completed. It was intense, like changing for the first time. Something feels different though. I am taller. I look down, I am standing on my hind legs! My paws look more like feet and hands! “What the hell just happened?! How the fuck am I talking?!” Was that the moon goddess? I am freaking out! I turn to check on Harper. She is standing in front of me, and she is stunning. “Mia, my mate.” I hear Mika purr. Her fur was pearl white, and it had a blue sheen depending on the way she turned. Her claws were like mine, extra-long and sharp. Her blue eyes pierced into mine as her gaze fel
CHAPTER 55: GOING FERAL~ Gabriel’s POV ~ “I’m sorry Alpha Gabriel, FORGIVE ME PLEASE!” Preston screamed as I let melted hot iron fall onto his skin. It sizzled and boiled straight through the flesh to his bones. He is on the verge of passing out from the pain. “If that’s all you know then I have no use with you now do I Preston?” He was spitting blood from biting his lip off. The smell of iron and blood was heavy in the air. There was no ventilation down here. These pieces of shit’s don’t deserve comfort. “Fine, FINE! I’LL TELL YOU! It’s not much but I’ll tell you.” I paused, barely able to stop more iron from pouring onto him. I raised one brow as I waited for him to speak. “Thane wants the girl because he believes he can obtain more power by mating and marking her.” “I have already marked her! He should leave her alone!” Preston shook his head. “It doesn’t matter, he is obsessed with her. There was something else.” He looked around confused. “Oh yeah! The
CHAPTER 56: ROYALTY NOW~ Gabriel’s POV ~I looked over the crowd that was gathered in front of me. There were so many people in attendance including my pack. We had to turn people away at the gate and live stream it. Harper was standing next to me. She was nervous, I rubbed the back of her hand with my thumb. I mind linked her. “It’s ok baby, I am right here with you. I just need you to stand next to me and look pretty.” She looked at me and smiled. I felt her relax against me. All eyes were on me as I prepared to begin. “Well, let's get this over with Gabriel. I haven’t got all day!” I heard one Alpha say. Harper growled next to me. “We should cut out his intestines in front of everyone and make an example out of him.” I grinned at Mika’s in agreement. I ignored the comment made by the ass and started to talk. “Thank you all for coming here today on such short notice. The reason I have called you here is to make you aware of something that is new to our kind.”
CHAPTER 57: YOU’RE ALL I THINK ABOUT~ Gabriel’s POV ~Everyone stood to exit the room other than Harper, Tanner, and Kai. “Why didn’t you tell me about the witch, Harper?” I was curious. She blushed and looked at me, then down. “Well… I have kind of been preoccupied and had other things on my mind in the last week. I just forgot. I know that’s no excuse but… I guess it’s what happens when you first get your mate.” Tanner scooted his chair back from the table and busted out laughing. “What she is trying to say is the only thing that she has had on her mind is humping you Gabe!” Tanner and Kai both belted out laughing. “She’s not the only one. That’s all I can think about constantly also. Especially with how good it was the last time…” Harper cut me off by placing her little finger over my mouth... I looked at her beautiful crimson red cheeks. She is so cute when she is embarrassed. I shouldn’t tease her like that. I leaned in and grabbed her. I pulled her up wit
CHAPTER 76: BABY LYCAN ~ Selene (Moon Goddess) ~ “Well Selene, it looks like you found a way to interfere without actually being there, didn’t you?” “I told you, don’t tell me I can’t help my children. 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. He didn’t want to admit it, but he would have interfered if I hadn't. ~ Harper’s POV ~ We finally made it back to the packhouse. The battle lasted overnight, and the sun wa
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
CHAPTER 72: SATISFY MY BEAST~ Harper’s POV ~I didn’t take my time with my morning routine. I walked back out into Gabriel’s bedroom and noticed he was gone. 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
CHAPTER 70: IRIS~Gabriel’s POV~ “I can’t believe we flew on a fucking dragon!” Kai said to me. Any other time, I would be elated, but right now, my mind was focused on something else. 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
CHAPTER 69: WHAT WAS THAT STUFF~Tanner’s POV~I hear the sound of something boiling in a pot, and I smell something like lavender? I open my eyes, where am I? “OH shit! HARPER!” I pitched my body upright, banging my head on… the ceiling? What the hell? “TANNER! 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.
CHAPTER 68: SHOW ME WHAT YOU GOT~ Gabriel’s POV ~Kai and I walked through the field toward the mountain. This place is beautiful, I would love to bring Harper here one day. Man, I miss her, I just hope I get the chance to tell her how sorry I am about what happened with that damned witch. We passed some strange creatures; some we had only heard about. Kai wasn’t about to mess with any of them after what happened with the Baldander. I am hoping we can get to the dragons and get the weapon before nightfall. I can’t wait to be back on my way home. 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
