After watching Cynthia be escorted out of the hospital by our guards the mood between Bolton and I was soured. I couldn’t believe Blake did this to her and it made me want his death on my hands so much more.I couldn’t do that now though. If I killed Blake it would kill her. I was debating what to do about Viktor too. I didn’t want Bolton to lose his mom. The rest of the day he barely said two words to me, but I felt his hand to my skin every moment. He knew I needed to think and without his commentary. He made a point to remind me he was still here though.After dinner I put my kids to bed which my mom and Draconian agreed to stay with them at the pack house. The rest of my sibling stayed too and I doubled the security. I knew if Blake or Viktor showed up, my family would be their first target. It was no secret I would give up anything to keep them safe.By sundown a horde of Vampires arrived. I wasn’t sure who was left at their kingdom or even where it was. Watching Bolton greet th
“Well, you look... better.” I tried to hide the worry on my face.“I look disgusting.”“It just one little spot. The rest of you is gorgeous.” I gave her a smile.“It’s the only thing anyone can see. Thankfully I’m locked away from the public eye.” Her fingers brushed the dark black ooze on her neck. Something was wrong with her mark and no one knew what. Fortunately, whatever odd growth happening from Blake’s mark it didn’t seem to affect her physically. The doctor cleared all her vitals and said it should have no effect on her child, but even they weren’t sure. There was no record of a mark ever turning into a black crusty wound that occasionally oozed out venom.“It will be ok. You’re perfectly healthy. We just have to be patient. Eldora and... the witch will be here.” I actually didn’t know any of the witches’ names. “I doubt they will know more about a mate’s mark than our own stupid people.” She hit the bars in frustration.“We will figure it out, Cynthia. You’re healthy and a
Three weeks passed and surprisingly four species coexisted on my land somewhat peacefully. It wasn’t without fights or many being locked away for a night to sober up, but it was three weeks that they all bonded.“I like this little village we have here. It reminds me of the fairy land we occupied.” I snuggled into Bolton’s side. “It is like that. Expect we have proper shelter and plumping here.”“Yes, and I do love the luxuries of modern life. Bath?” I looked up to him. He was as a sweaty mess as myself. He woke me before the sunrise so we could have hours naked in bed before our kids woke. “Tempting, but I have to meet Draconian. He heard some rumors of an attack being planned at my kingdom and the witches’ neighborhoods.”“What rumors?”“Dragons been seen lurking about different territories.”“You think they will attack their lands since most are here? If we leave their people unprotected and they are ambush, it will put a wedge between us all.”“I know and that is why we need a p
“Sasha! Get up!”I woke to Bolton screaming beside the bed. “What is...” before I could ask I heard the bells of war. “Their here!”“Yes! Today we finish this.” Bolton growled at me with red eyes. There was my monster. He was ready and so was I.“Yes. Today we finish this.” I repeated, standing to kiss my handsome mate then went to dress quickly. I was amped and ready for this battle, but I had no idea how it would end. I was always a foolish girl though, believing good would triumph if I just fought hard enough. Today was the true test of my beliefs and I would forever bury that teenage girl raised as nothing but a weak omega born to a traitor of my pack. Today, Sasha Glancia would truly die and I would own my name and rightful place as Sasha Leto. A name that would be known as the greatest and truest Luna of any specie for generations to come. It was the cost that made it all seem unworthy though.“You ready?” Eldora flew beside me on the roof of our pack house.“I’ve been ready f
“This isn’t true.” I mumbled as my feet fumbled over myself. Draconian was pissed and on a mission to get me as far from the pack house as possible. I understood his worry, but I couldn’t just leave. “Where are my children? My family?”“Your mother has them safe and off territory already. We will meet them at an ally pack’.”“An ally pack? They are all here.” I was trying to get my mind to work as we ran down four flights of stairs. I wasn’t even sure how I could survive without Bolton, but I needed to get to my kids. My hand went to my mark, remembering his touch to my skin. I could still feel him. “There’s no pain.”“What?” Draconian looked back at me and the fear that crossed his face was unmistakable.“It doesn’t burn. I can feel Bolton.”“Sasha, he might have not completely died, but we can’t go out there. You’ll be killed in seconds. You have to let him go.” Draconian’s hands came to my arms. He looked at me lovingly, but with a deep longing. “Drac? Something is off.” My eyes
I sat beside a lake taking long breaths. I knew I couldn’t plead for my life again. This was beyond the goddess’ power and I’ve cheated death too many times. My hand moved over the small bump on my belly and tears fall down my cheeks. If I die, so do they. Would I ever know who they were, or do they become nothing since they were never born?“My daughter.” The velvety smooth poison nearly cracked my skull open and it made me smile. I wiped my tears away as I looked to the moon goddess. I wasn’t dead, at least not yet.“I never thought I would be so happy to be in this much pain.” I cried to her.Charlotte appeared next me and I hugged her instantly. “I miss you so much.”“I miss you too. We don’t have much time and the goddess wanted to speak to you through me.”“Ok.” I bit my lip, body filling with excitement. This had to mean I would return home soon and I couldn’t wait to kiss my mate’s lips.I looked to the moon goddess as Charlotte spoke her words. “This is the last time we will
Seventeen years in futureMy name is Sasha Lycanic, born a low-level omega with nothing special about a single hair on my body. To make my life infinitely worse, my father was a traitor. My life didn't start out bad, it just kept plummeting downhill and for so long I was too weak to take the wheel. My eyes stared at myself through my vanity's mirror with a small smile tugging at my lips, remembering the days of my youth. I was young and naive. I loved deeply and oh so wrongly. I chose a life that damned myself, and I didn't realize it until it was too late. Now I was grown, no longer a child or so naive."It's time!" My mate called to me and I rose from my chair. Today, I cannot be weak. Today, I would be proud and support my son. My Lycan son, born out of malice and betrayals. I loved him, as I did all my children, but he was the oldest, the first and our future Alpha. "Coming darling." I said in a sweet voice. I may not have become everything I thought I would be, but above all
"Look at those vile clothes she wears. She should just rip out her heart and end her misery." Cynthia said, gossiping with the other volleyball players."She is too weak to rip her own heart out. If her family had any money, I'm sure they would have paid someone to do it for her." Another girl responded."I would pay someone to do it. I hate being associated with her family. They are traitors to our Alpha and should had been killed with their father." Cynthia spoke a little louder. She didn't need to though and she was aware I could hear her perfectly. I was a weak omega, with a small wolf, but I still had wolf hearing.I felt a dark presence behind me and took a sharp breath. He was near me. I could always sense him. Even though he tortured me worse than any other, I still feigned for his touch."Are they upsetting my Raven?" Blake spoke in my ear. He called me that name because of my hair, something he always fancied."No!" I said, tilting my chin a little higher. I learned years ago

“We have so many things to do, baby.” Bolton sighed after we made out for another twenty minutes. “I want to just lock you in a room for weeks and enjoy every inch of your body, but we have two major threats we need to kill.”“Blake and Viktor.” I sighed too, feeling the weight of what they would be plotting now. “Do you think they know I’m alive?”“Probably. I want you to remain in the pack house.”“I won’t lock myself in here, psycho. I will promise to be always guarded though.”“I will guard you and no one else.” He growled.Before I could begin telling him that we can’t be literally glued to the others’ side a knock came at the door. I quickly opened it praying it wasn’t bad news.“Cynthia is asking for you, Luna.”“Cynthia? Where is she?”“You haven’t heard?”“No, what’s wrong. The last I knew she left the arena with her fated.”“She isn’t talking, but something happened. She is at the hospital and in bad shape.”I looked to Bolton with worry. “I’ll go right now.”I practically r
The kids ate a mountain of food then ran around talking to almost everyone that came into the dining the hall. They were little social butterflies and felt completely comfortable in our pack. Bolton sat beside me, hand in hand, even as we ate. Once the plates were cleared he pulled me from my chair and into his lap. I could feel his desperate need to feel my skin to his. Before today I would had thought it to be annoying if someone acted like this, but now, knowing I was his only desire, his only need. I felt like the most valuable creation every made. “I love listening to your never ending thoughts.” Bolton’s lips were in my ear. “Especially when they are about giving me every part of you.” “I’m yours now. You can take anything you wish from me.” I gave him a wink and he took my lips like a beast. I giggled over his rough kisses, laying my hands to the sides of his face. “I’m never going to get tired of this. In fact, the more you kiss me the more I want.”“More? I know exactly wh
