Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56Lucy woke up to the smell of bacon and fresh-squeezed juice. She slipped out of bed and brushed and braided her hair. She slipped on some clothes and went downstairs. She expected to see Axel in the kitchen. He was the only one who cooked, but it was Killian leaning against the counter drinking coffee.
"Morning beautiful""Good morning! I don't think I have slept that well in so long."
"Good, this is our place now, so get used to it.""We won't be staying in the packhouse?" Lucy wondered what kind of Luna didn't stay with her pack.
"Not while you are attending school. I have an office in the city a few blocks away. I can go to work, and Maddox and Ellen will handle the packhouse." "Oh, well, that actually sounds great!""I am glad you approve."
Ellen and Treena came into the kitchen looking dead. "Oh gosh. I think I might be sick." Ellen sat on the island. "Sorry, Ellen, I forRelated chapters
Love and fear 26-Too much too soon
Lucy was out running in human form like she always did in the morning. Usually, this relaxed her, but tomorrow being her birthday and having to run with four guards, two in wolf form, two in human form with guns with silver bullets, was not relaxing her. She stopped by the stream to fill her water bottle and take out her earbuds. Listening to the water run down the stream was always her favourite. Lucy decided to practice cleaning her mind and moving some trees around. She spotted a large Boulder six feet tall and heavy she wondered if she was strong enough to move it. She focused on the wind rustling the trees, the sound of the leaves falling to the forest floor, the birds chirping and the clink, clink, clink of the guards gun rubbing his jacket. The boulder shifted but didn't move. She tried harder, listening to the rise and fall of her laboured breathing, in and out. The boulder lifted three feet off the ground. Lucy began humming. She really didn't know why but the more he humme
Love and fear 27-Birthday's and Secrets
Lucy woke up feeling strange. It was like she was rested and feeling energized. The last few months had been exhausting and just a constant state of perpetual exhaustion. Astrid had been quiet. She was letting Lucy be in charge for once. Lucy wondered if it was because she was spending so much time with Killian and Astrid loved being near him. She rolled over and found a single white Lily and a note. Happy Birthday my beautiful Mate. Meet me in the clearing by the waterfall when you wake up. I hope you enjoyed your sleep-in. Love with all my soul Killian LUCY I looked at my phone: 10 AM, of course, he turned off my alarm. I guess no training today. "You need a break anyways. You've been pushing too hard lately." Astrid pipped up. "Happy Birthday Astrid." "Happy Birthday, my sweet human." I shook my head. Oh, Astrid, she was in a good moo
Love and fear 28- The Big Bash
Killian POVWhen Lucy came down the long hallway to the party, she took my breath away. She was wearing red heels that made her legs go on for days, a red three quarter length dress that slid off the shoulders, revealing her mark. She was proud of it. How does this exquisite being belong to me? She doesn't even know how gorgeous she is. She was going to make the most amazing Luna. She is kind and loving, patient and understanding. Strong and fierce, she had already endured so much pain one person should never have in three lifetimes, all before she turned eighteen. I met her just outside the entrance to the great hall."You look more beautiful than anything I have ever laid my eyes on." A blush came across her cheeks just for a moment before she pushed the emotion away like she always does."Well, I can't top that compliment, but you do clean up well, your self alpha." She spoke sultry into my ear as she adjusted my bowtie."Shall we?" I took
Love and fear 29-Unexpected Visitors
Everyone started shifting and running into battle with the warriors. Killian ordered all untrained women and children to the secure floor for lockdown."Lucy that means you too!" Killian held her shoulders begging her to go to safety."No you need me, I'm your best female fighter. What kind of Luna hides when the fight starts!""fine but stay close to me and Axel at all times!" Killian ordered.they shifted and ran towards the fight. There were wolves everywhere. This was no ordinary Rogue attack. This was Alexi, Killian knew he was here for Lucy. Thank the mood goddess he marked her this morning. That would keep her from being marked by Alexi the rogue king.They fought and killed so many wolves Astrid thought they made a great team. She hadn't even needed to use any of her abilities, she was faster and stronger than she thought. All that training had paid off. She was startled when the sexy voice of Diesel filtered into her mind. "A
Love and fear 30-Captive by the Creep
It has been weeks since Lucy left with the rogue king. It was really waring on Axel and Killian. Axel had never been without her since they were ten years old. They spent every waking hour together. Killian was more pissed. He finally found his mate and won her over, and she was gone. Just gone, he knew he needed to trust her, but how? What could be taking so long?Meanwhile, Lucy was gaining Alexis's trust. She was exploring his mansion. It wasn't as lovely as Death moon packs, but it was still enjoyable. She couldn't get over the stench of the rogues. Kyle had been to visit her, and they would walk in the garden. He was on her side. Kyle owed his life to Ellen, and he was waiting to repay her. Kyle and Lucy were working out a plan. Alexi was Livid that Lucy was marked. It was impossible to remove a fated mate mark unless that mate died or the other mate broke the bond. Which meant he needed to ger Killian to cheat on Lucy and break their bond. He couldn't kill Killian
Love and fear 31-Rescue
Lucy couldn't sleep. The dark witch had arrived, and Ellen would not be here until morning, before the full moon, but witches were still not usually trustworthy. They worked for themselves with no loyalty. Ellen was different. She was raised to be good. Even if they didn't like the things Aunt Bonnie hid, she was still doing the right things. Lucy was afraid what if they removed Killian's mark. Would Alexi really force himself on her. would he really forcefully mark her? She had to trust Astrid and Ellen. They are strong. They would get them out of there alive. At some point, Lucy had drifted off in the night and awoke covered in sweat, another nightmare. She walked into her bathroom filled the bath with water so hot she could hardly stand it. The heat helped it soothed her aches and helped her relax. Her mind drifted to the hot springs and the magical time she spent with Killian. She got out when the water started to cool. She dried herself off and got dressed. She sat by the firep
Love and fear 32- New leader?
Astrid POVI ran as fast as I could. The pain was so intense. When Killian marked us, it was pleasurable, a little painful, but nothing like this. I felt like my veins were on fire. I found a stream. I dove into the stream, hoping the cold water would give me some relief. It did help a lot; I could focus get my bearings. When the pain fog cleared, I jumped out of the river. SHHHHIIIITTTT, I left the fight! I ran back again as fast as I could. When I came running back to the garden, it was silent and still. Alexi was no longer lying on the ground. They had taken him to the pack dr. Everyone was in wolf form, just sitting like good dogs. Not moving, I shifted back to my human form, still remaining in control. I couldn't let Lucy deal with this mess as I walked down the path through the hundreds of wolves sitting. Each bowed their head to me as I walked through them all. A woman I know works in the kitchen came running out with a cloak that fit me to cover my naked b
Love and fear 33-Luna Ceremony
LUCY Today was the day—my big Luna ceremony. I was still processing everything that had happened. I turned 18 became Luna to a rogue pack for all of an hour before giving it away. I am becoming Luna of one of the biggest packs in North America. I can Heal people. How is it that I graduated high school less than five months ago? I should be touring colleges and getting drunk at frat parties, not taking care of a pack. The fear was setting in the kind of fear that makes your arm hair stand up, the kind of fear that makes your vision blur, and the food you ate for breakfast start climbing back up. I'm still sitting in the clothes I slept in, bootie shorts and a tank top. My hair is a mess, and I look like I haven't slept in days. Killian has made sure the kitchen omegas have 100 different iron-rich foods a day. I am so tired of red meat and pumpkin everything. Axel snuck me in some eggs, benny and waffles with whipped cream and berries this morning. Some days I wish we were bac

Love and fear Book 2 Unbreakable Bonds
Axel grew up in a small town adopted by human parents when his mother died during childbirth. He never needed to look for his birth father because his foster parents were all he needed. Kade and Laurel treated Axel like the son they always wanted. He was given everything a boy could want. When Axel shifted for the first time, he had no idea what was happing to him. His body got really hot and itchy. He had this pounding headache for days. They lived on the forest side of town, so he decided to take a walk and get some fresh air, maybe take a swim in the river if that helped cool his aching itchy body.He stumbled over rocks and tree roots, the smell of the trees becoming stronger, and he could hear everything. The wind in the trees, the heartbeats of rabbits running and the rushing river seemed to be so loud he covered his ears. He did his best to breathe through the pain he felt all over his body. He laid on the ground next to the river, waiting for the pain to s
Love and fear 50- heartbreak
LUCY I sat on the terrace of our bedroom, waiting for Killian to wake up. I knew he'd be up soon for training. Axel and I had stayed out so late. Killian had been asleep when I came in. I was lost in thought, looking at the building I had destroyed with my outburst only a few months earlier. Almost rebuilt, but never the same. My mind wandered to everything that has happened in the last few months—snuggled up in a blanket with my coffee. I felt a strange sensation overwhelming my body. Was my heat coming on? KILLIAN I woke up choking on smoke. I rolled over to see if Lucy had come back. She wasn't in bed. I stumbled through the smoke, wondering what time it was. I tried mind-linking Lucy to see if she was still with Axel. She didn't answer me. I thought for a minute maybe she was in the shower. Where was this smoke coming from? I looked up to see her coffee cup on the ground outside, her blanket wrapped around her tightly. She was on the deck trapped. I
Love and fear 49-Goodbyes
LUCY Having my mother in my pack was weird. My memories of her are so different from the women before me. We are sitting in the gardening drinking coffee and talking about our lives. I can feel her trauma in her emotions. The things she hides and pretends didn't happen. I searched her mind when we first found her to see what she had experienced. They tried to recreate Astrid. She had so many children taken from her, experimented on and killed when they were not blessed wolves. How she hides all that pain, ill never know. She keeps the wall up high. Hidden from Lanie, for being an older sister is very oblivious to real life. The struggles we have faced and the hardships ahead. All she sees is Axel and her family. That's all she has ever wanted. I, on the other hand, have never felt more alone. Killian is great. I do love him, but he can't fill the void I feel. The never-ending emptiness. He does complete me in some ways, but in other ways, I don't know if I will ever be able
Love and fear 48- Reunited
ELLEN I watched as Lanie and her mother reconnected after 15 years. Lanie had been through so much. I secretly hoped maybe my mother wasn't dead but just captured as well. However, I knew better. Axel was recovering well. Maddox had joined me at some point in the night and was sleeping on my lap, both of my legs were asleep, and I really had to pee when Lucy came to visit. I waited by his bedside for him to wake up so Lanie and her mother could have more time together and Axel wouldn't wake up alone. The brother I had always wanted. He was better than I dreamed of funny, kind, fierce. I hated the thought of him leaving to be the Alpha of the Mountain Moon pack, but I knew it was his destiny, and he would make an incredible Alpha. "Hey, how's he doing?" Lucy asked as she slumped into the chair beside me. "No change, but the doc said that's normal, and the poison is out of his system. It was just such a large amount. Liam is still asleep and can't h
Love and fear 47-Battle
ASTRID When I saw the vile creature cut Killains throat, to say I was pissed was an understatement. I shoved Lucy back and took control of this rescue and murder, whichever I decided came first. Mad ox put the coward who ordered Killian's death into the cell next to us while I healed Killian. Lucy was too sweet to witness this, so I blocked her out. What I was about to do, I didn't want her living with it for the rest of her life. "Ah, Alpha Silver, or should I say spinless serpent, I don't know how the mood Goddess gave you paws instead of scales." "Who are you? a hybrid? a witch? how do you move so fast, and how did you heal that mutt?" I reached my hand out with my claws extended and dug them into his neck, drawing blood. " I am Astrid Bennet. You kidnapped my mother and tried to kill my mate normally; my human is sweet, loving and forgiving; however, she is grieving the loss of her mate, so I had to shove her out—I am not sweet,
Love and fear 46-Rescuing the Luna
AXEL I could not keep Astrid back any longer. Before I could tighten my grip, she had ripped both vamps hearts out and busted open the cellar doors. She grabbed the beta both hands on either side of his face. I couldn't see what was happening because Astrid had her back to me, but then I heard the blood curtailing scream come from the betas mouth. His eyes turned white, and he started shaking. She threw him to the side and ran to Killian placing her hands on his neck. There was a flash of light, and Alpha silver tried to escape, but Maddox grabbed him and broke both his legs and wrists. He wouldn't be going anywhere. "Throw him in the other cell. I want to have some alone time with this monster." Astrid's voice was eerily calm and so creepy. Lucy was defiantly locked out. "Yes, Luna!" Maddox complied "Axel! Ellen! Find my mother." She screamed. After a few minutes, Killian's neck was healed completely. He was still covered in b
Love and fear 45- The Academy
Maddox had returned with Ellen and warriors were ready. Killian wanted to kill Alpha Sandy Silver he exploited children and his mistress was no better. Astrid was on the verge of taking control but Axel stayed close to Lucy to help her stay calm while Killian commanded the troops. Treena had returned from university to stay with Lanie. The packhouse would be very quiet except for a few omegas and two warriors. It was about a two-day drive and a few hours in wolf form to the howler pack which is where the Academy was located deep in the woods of Louisiana. According to Bonnie, they had vampires and Dark witches helping conceal everything. Ellen would need to take down the barrier to get them through. Bonnie had given Ellen the spells she would need to get them in and out safely. Ellen was far stronger than Bonnie ever let her know giving her dampening herbs her whole life so she would never know her full power. Bonnie did grow to love Ellen even if she was power-hungry. She was just
Love and fear 44- The Truth
ELLEN I woke up alone in Maddox condo in Death Valley. I tried mind linking Maddox and got nothing. What was he really up to? I know we got what we needed from Bonnie, so we planned on leaving Devon alone. So, where could he be? I wandered around the condo snooping through drawers and looking at bookshelves. The apartment was so different from his room at the packhouse. Everything was on display like his secret hideaway. I went to reach for the door handle at the end of the hall when I heard the front door open, and I could smell coffee and donuts. I went running to the smell. Ever since Star surfaced, I can smell everything. I reach for my coffee and a giant powdered donut. "Where have you been all morning?" I scolded him as I shoved a huge bite of donut in my mouth. "WOAH, slow down their killer. I had no idea you could fit that much anything in that tiny mouth." He winked and laughed at me, which earned him a smack on the arm. "It's not that I cant
Love and fear 43- Leverage
Killian had been torturing Aunt Bonnie for weeks. She was a tough old broad. She wasn't going to crack. Ellen and Maddox had Searched through her home, looking for anything they could use. There was nothing except an old picture of Bonnie and a baby. Ellen couldn't remember her ever having a baby, so who was this? She decided to look up any babies born to the Gilbert family around that time. She looked about two years old, so she had a rough time frame.Maddox and Ellen decided to go out for a break while waiting for the registry office to get back to them. Ellen lied and said Bonnie was quite I'll and wanted to notify next of kin.Maddox wanted to take Ellen's mind off of everything that had been going on lately.

They stopped at the food truck outside the track before they raced. Chi
