‘You will all sign a waiver to the effect that anything you leave behind will become the property of the Crown. It is a one-way trip, if you choose to go there is no coming back. What you do on that continent to rid yourselves of the parasites is your problem. The continent is yours to live how you choose. We will not interfere but be aware any if you try to return to the mainland will be eliminated without fear or favour.’He drew himself up to his full height his snow-white coat fluffed out to make him look huge,‘I, King Alpha Lucas of the Sun & Moon Pack, do hereby decree that all who undertake this option will be expelled from all Immortal Packs, their links to said Packs broken making them Rogues.’He let his gaze wander around the Packs,‘All those who wish to join with Alpha Tylix step forward’There were about ten thousand of them from different Packs and Species, big cats, bears and Wolves an unholy Alliance he turned to Carrick,‘Give them the contracts and mark them’Each
Katya nodded,‘I know, are you going to do a scan?’Athena nodded and went to get the machine bringing the Consultant Obstetrician back with her. Lucas frowned when they wheeled in the scanner,‘What the fuck?’He looked from his Mate to Athena as she set up the machine,Katya took his hand and smiled,‘Surprise’She whispered as the loud sound of the pup's heartbeat echoed around the room and the blurry picture appeared on the screen.‘Katya?’Lucas stared at the screen,‘There’s something wrong’He pointed at the screen and the Consultant checked and then double checked and just to make sure called in a colleague,‘Well, I think this may come as a surprise to you both’The Consultant looked up from the screen and pressed a button,‘Your Highnesses, you are expecting twins’There was silence as they took in what he had just said,‘Twins?’Katya recovered first,‘No’The Consultant smiled again,‘In about three or four weeks’‘There is still so much to do’She said quietly and Lucas p
Lucas was haunted by what he had said as the days passed and there was no sight of her, his Patrollers had searched every acre of their land, and all they had found was the place where she had been sick. When he told the Consultant she had not been found he said earnestly,‘You must find her Alpha this is not looking good’It was a week later when the Patrollers found the disturbed rocks and the missing clothes reporting it quickly back to their Alpha and he called a meeting,‘It would appear the Luna has headed back into the human city again, we have no choice now, I have no interest in hurting those humans that we have allowed to live there but if they get in my way they will be killed. All of you, no hiding I don’t care if you tear that city to pieces, you will find the Luna and bring her home.’Some of the smaller cities had been used to house the breeders and the slaves that the Immortals had kept, it had seemed the easiest solution to a difficult problem, but it would have taken
He carried her out of the hospital and placed her in the waiting SUV, 'Follow us Alpha, you are needed for this ceremony.' The SUV set off and without thinking of the watching humans Lucas shifted into his Wolf and raced after them following the car easily with his long loping strides, they took her to the Stone Henge that ancient circle of stones in Salisbury, England. It was quite a distance from the Packlands in Wales, over one hundred miles but Lucas was barely out of breath when they pulled up nearby just as the moon began to rise. The Warlock carried the unconscious Katya through the circle of stones placing her on the ‘lode’ stone in the centre and then he called his Coven to form a circle around her.‘We have only one shot at this Alpha and it all rests on how badly she wants to return to you.’Lucas looked anguished,‘That is the reason she is in this condition, Warlock. We argued, really argued and she left me. She even shifted knowing how deadly it was in her condition. If
Long ago, before the Human Species had evolved enough to overpopulate the planet, Wolf Packs roamed the earth in search of lands to settle into, with plenty of game to hunt, fresh water to drink, thick green forests to hide in and run through and a backdrop of stunning mountains to climb. The large valley with a silver stream running through its centre culminating in a large pool surrounded by flat rocks and stunning flowers was perfect for a Pack to settle and make it their own. This was no ordinary Wolf Pack, these were the first Immortals, a Species of Shifters and Werewolves, that dominated the local area and all the creatures that shared this habitat knew they had to defer to the Pack’s Alpha. A powerful Lycan who ruled strictly but fairly he was adored by his pack and respected by the other creatures that came under his protection he started a dynasty that can be traced back to this day. Sadly Werewolves do not reproduce as quickly as the human race, none of the Immortal Species
She had kept the cottage going, it was virtually self-sufficient and when he rode up she was in the garden pulling up weeds, 'Good morning Alexandra.'He stepped off his motorbike and walked toward her,'Good morning Uncle.'She replied coolly her hazel eyes watchful and wary as he approached,'Where is your Mother, I would like to talk to her.'He saw the pain flicker in her pretty eyes and then disappear just as quickly as she lifted her chin,'Mother has gone to be with the Goddess.'She was completely impassive, her words spoken without any emotion as she stared at him not blinking, the Alpha frowned,'What does that mean?'He asked stopping and looking around him searching for his sister,'You know what it means Alpha'She shot back at him chin up eyes flashing and he hid a grin, she was so beautiful and had her mother's spark of defiance,'Where is she?'He asked quietly and she pointed to the spot where she had buried her, the ground was flat and tidy and the only sign of the
She found herself obeying, her eyes heavy with exhaustion she drifted into a deep healing sleep and when she woke he had gone but she had healed. He kept an eye on her, she sensed him watching but rarely came to the cottage he protected her from afar. When it was time for her to become a fully mature Wolf he stayed in the shadows as she howled at the full blood moon her body taking the final step into adulthood. Only a month later when the Lycan came, Alexandra was sleeping when she heard the Wolves howling in the woods nearby, she crept to her window to watch. She knew the Alpha had required help with Hunters in the area, she had almost been caught by them twice, and it was only the Alpha's intervention, he killed the Hunters chasing her, that kept her free. He had called in the Lycans because they were so much more powerful than ordinary Werewolves and he had kept his side of the bargain wiping them out leaving the valley they lived in to return to its peaceful slumber. Alexandra kn
Time was racing on and he held her tighter showing without words the love in his heart and in return she wrapped her body around his giving him the comfort he craved. Cocooned in the warmth of their bed they settled locked together accepting what the fates had decreed and they allowed sleep to claim them one last time. When the Lycan awoke the sun was shining brightly in the morning sky, the eclipse had finished and the world was filled with light once more but not for him. The beautiful woman he loved so passionately lay cold and still in his arms, the prophecy had been fulfilled. Slowly he stood up out of their bed and laid her on the pillows for his maids with one last kiss to her cold blue lips he shifted into his Wolf the pain so deep he could only run and run. Straight through the dense forests and up to the top of the huge mountain that dominated their lands reaching the top he stood tall and tipped back his head the howl of pain and loss echoed across the Packlands as the dark
