I wiped my face off with a sweat rag, my breaths labored from running. Jacob stood, or more like sat, next to me on the dirt ground just outside of the training facility. His breaths were much quicker than mine and he could barely stand. I chuckled to myself as he finished off a third bottle of water and dumped a fifth onto his head.
"You alright down there?" I questioned.
His closed eyes snapped open and met mine, tiredness clear all over his face.
"Yea...I just haven't...ever ran...that much before," he tried.
I chuckled under my breath.
"We only ran ten miles. A marathon

"What are you making?" My mates deep voice asked from behind, causing me to jump. I didn't turn around, just stayed focused on pressing the edges of the little squares. Aura was a little disappointed that we didn't smell him, though we were kind of in our own world. "Ravioli," I answered simply with a shrug of my shoulders. I continued pressing the fork around the edges of the dough before grabbing another and filling the center with cheese and Italian sausage I had to scour the house for, then repeating the pressing like I had several times before. "It smells amazing," he complemented. I was glad I was turned around so he couldn't see the flush in my cheeks. "Thanks." He sighed and I could feel him come closer making the hair on the back of my neck stand and goosebumps to cover my being. I mentally cursed this damn bond for doing this to me. I don't want to feel this way towards him. "

The meatballs I pulled out of the oven sat on an unused burner on the stove to cool. Tate would be in here in nearly twenty minutes and I was scrambling to get the harvest potatoes finished. All day I had been lazy and bored. This Saturday, apparently, was the day that Christine and Henry decided to leave pack grounds for the day to enjoy themselves. I didn't mind, but I was ready to finally plan a shopping trip with Cleo or even a day just driving around outside of pack territory. The potatoes still had seventeen minutes left to bake, so I decided to chop up some lettuce I gathered from the pack garden. I also got some tomatoes and kale from there. Christine said that kale was good for your immune system and that for how much I've been training, I should start eating it. It's pretty bitter and doesn't have much flavor other than that

"Alright little warrior let's see what you got," Cristian said, prowling his way around me in the ring. I cracked my neck and smirked deviously. Tate stood at the edge of the circle, arms folded across his chest and lips in a thin line. He was putting up a good facade, too bad I good see straight through it and noticed how much he was fretting over this sparring match. Damn mother hen is what he is. Last night while doing the dishes he suggested I train in the rings like he used to. Aura was ecstatic and honestly as was I, considering I've never had the opportunity to train let alone spar. He claimed it was mainly so 'when we spar for your initiation, you don't look weak.' I stomped on his toe for that one. That asshole knows damn well I could probably have him in the dirt just like his mother. I've experimented fighting with Nathan when I was 13 and beat him up pretty bad. My friend wa

The black t-shirt dress felt smooth against my skin, not irritating my wounds one bit. Blondie suggested I wear something like this for when the Luna comes in and I'm glad I listened, although I won't tell him that since I was so against wearing a dress in the first place. Growing up sporting rags and gross hand-me-downs meant that all those old t-shirts fit me like dresses; hence me despising wearing them in the first place. After Jacob had left, I practically inhaled the delicious eggs, pancakes, and bacon made by Christine. Never in my life have I eaten so much food in one day- that I can recall anyways. Tate's mother, Luna Frances, hasn't come to see me yet. It's been several hours so I decided to clean myself up to go down and meet her myself. Aura feels excited to meet the mother of the man we're destined to, but I'm just nervous; internally shaking because I'm not sure if she'll

The blinds shielding the windows of Frances's office didn't do much to block out the afternoon sun shining through, creating yellow lines on the wall behind me. Tate sat next to me in the red cushioned chair, gripping my hand in his. Aura was beginning to appreciate his touch, slowly forgiving him for his sin, but I couldn't yet. My hand in his only added gasoline to the fire, more strength to the bond that kept pulling the other end of the rope. Frances stood in the left corner of the room, humming to herself as she combed through files and files to find the one on the Black Moon. I shifted in my seat, trying to rid my body of the sparks shooting through it from our hands entwined. My palm fit so perfectly in his. It made me nervous to think that I was liking this so much. I was giving in and he knew it; the satisfied smirk that tugged at his lips gave him away with ease.

I wiped the wetness from under my eyes and cleared my throat. "Come in," I told Tate. I knew this will be the day that the bond finally succeeds and pulls me into the mud while standing triumphantly, preparing to surrender me to my mate. I'm still wary, Aura whispered, her tone suggestive, betraying her words as I knew her body felt indifferent than her mind. She wants our mate and I believe that I finally do as well. His scrambling feet barged into my room, his blue eyes boring into mine as he hastily zipped over to me. His large hands enveloped me into his embrace, his face burying itself into my neck to sniff furiously in order to calm himself and his wolf. I sighed in content as I breathed in his intoxicating scent as well. I could feel my wounds mending faster from his touch. For once the thoughts of his affair, his poor leadersh

Sunlight barely peeked into my room since the curtains were drawn. I sighed in relief as my eyes didn't have to adjust so much. Quickly, I rubbed my blue orbs to clear them of last night's sleep. My naked body stayed wrapped in blankets comfortably as I remembered everything. Part of my feels pathetic for crying while trying to mate; the other part of me is proud that I didn't pass out from the stress of the memories I relived. That would've been worse. Stretching, I subconsciously reached for Tate and frowned when he wasn't in my four post bed next to me. Maybe he changed his mind. The thought from Aura drifted through my head. Anxiety creeped up my throat but I forced it down hard. No. I believed him when he said he loved us, I stated, mostly to reassure myself. A smile grew on my

"So, Love, what do you want to do today?" Tate asked, his hand rubbing circles on my hip while he stood over me, eyes blazing into mine while we stood in the dining room. Everyone had just left from lunch, most likely understanding that I wanted to be alone with Tate after listening to Frances give us all kinds of suggestions about the ceremony. "I'd like to go through the rest of the files your mom has," I admitted. Tate nodded and tightened his grip on me. "We can go get them then take them to my office. I'll call Layton while we're up there too I guess," he sighed out. I smiled lightly before pressing my face into his chest and inhaling. Us being marked almost doesn't seem real. Just yesterday afternoon I internally fought myself about him carrying me down the stairs and today, if he offered, I'd already be in his arms. "I love you

Channing POV They say every girl dreams of being a princess once in her life, but what everyone doesn't know we are all considered a prince or princess, no matter our background. It's been a century since I became Luna Queen and I was happy. I was walking out in the garden I had been working on, when someone covered my eyes. I knew it wasn't my mate, because he was still working on paperwork. "You know, you could have fun with this." I turned around and it was Arabella, she had dyed her hair again. "I didn't know you were coming." I told her as guards came running in. "Everything is fine." I told them, and then I focused on Arabella. "How have you been?" "I have been good. Tate said I should visit." She said, as we sat down on a bench. I nodded and I looked at the three trees that had intertwined. One by me, one by Arabella, and the last one by Arachne. Yoshino Cherry, Cherry Blossom, and pomegranate. I hadn't

Jafar POV When you are on the run and in hiding like I am, you learn new things, and new languages which then help you with getting work in various fields, which then helps you grow your own company like I did. When I was able to become a doctor, I created a pharmeutical company for the supernatural, since not a lot of human meds worked on us. It also gave me a chance to look for my mate now that I had a lot of people working for me. I was on my last search for my mate before I would live my life, without a mate. I was walking through town with a Gremlin I made friends with during my time on the run from hunters, when he stopped me. "Lady Arachne, what brings you up here?" Ali asked. I looked to see that I had almost ran into a pregnant woman. "I'm looking for Eugene's mate." "Still haven't found him?" She shook her head no. "Usually I am great at finding people but it's like he's here but then

Channing POV Once everyone was seated again. Arabella and Tate were called up as Alpha Ajax sat down. "I have already told them what this was for. They will be taking over the Fae Kingdom, it was supposed to be the Wendigos, but the Wendigos will be moving down to the Underworld with us, except for Hans Louis. This is actually the most easiest ceremony." Arachne spoke. She looked at Arabella, who handed her a vial of red liquid. Arachne broke it and the liquid fell onto the crown that she had taken off her head. The crown split in two. One forming a tiara, the other a Fae crown for a king. She placed them on their heads and smiled. "If there's a problem you can't handle, call me." She told them, before they went to go sit back down. This was it. The crowning of the new Alpha King. I hope they chose someone who was right for the role. "We did, Channing. You and Dreg." Arachne said, looking at me. I just stared a

Arabella POV It was the day of the wedding and I was nervous as hell. Emiko had told me she had a surprise for me. I had half a mind to run away because I hated not knowing what the surprise was, but I stayed. I was getting married to my mate. Emiko had chosen me and Tate to take over the Fae Kingdom, which had Channing a little bit pissed seeing as she had known Channing more than I did. I was playing a game on my phone when there was a knock on my door, before Emiko walked in. "Hey so you wanna know what I'm getting for Channing and Dreg?" She asked, sitting down next to me. I nodded, knowing that what ever it was, was going to make the two of them happy, and Channing not so pissy. Emiko let out a snort as she heard my thoughts. "Yeah, Ajax and I are going to be moving to the Underworld. Channing and Dreg will be taking over as Alpha King and Luna Queen." She said, giving me a smile. "I think it's a deserving role for Channi

Dreg POV It's been over five years since we all last saw Frost and Emiko, we had put the weddings on hold because Channing and Arabella still wanted to get married at the same time as Emiko. We had learned that Hades had returned back to the Underworld hours after he had left with Frost, but he said Frost and Emiko had left when Emiko got a phone call from an unknown number. It was supposedly nothing serious but now everyone was out looking, including the gods and goddesses. It was like they disappeared off the face of the Earth. I was out walking with a few of my men, when I heard a familiar voice. It sounded like Frost. We followed the voice and we stopped when we saw an older looking Frost helping Emiko who had crutches. He spoke to her in a language that sounded like French and she glared at him, before speaking back to him in the same language. They walked in our direction but stopped when they saw us. "Alpha Dreg." She said, as Frost pl

Channing POV How could he not accept them as mates? Sure having two mates was rare but it wasn't forbidden. I was currently staying in a spare room, at Emiko's and Alpha Ajax's place. Have been for two weeks. Emiko had been blocking my scent whenever Dragons had come to stop by that weren't apart of the Sleuth. Both her and Alpha Ajax had been lying about my whereabouts whenever Dreg called. I couldn't talk to him right now. Frost was just a kid. He had no right. I was cleaning the mate band, when my phone rang. I picked it up and it was Dreg. I let out a sigh before answering and putting it on speaker. "Channing I am so sorry." He rushed out, he sounded really worried. "Can they come back?" I asked, before I let out a bunch of curses when I stubbed my toes at the corner of the bed. "Are you okay?" He asked, making me let out a snort. "I stubbed my toes on the foot of the bed." I answered, as Emiko came bursting into m

Eric POV I wanted to go with Ari, to protect him, but I had to stay with our third. Who seemed to still be just a kid. I looked at him as he sat on the couch staring at his hands. I walked over and sat down next to him, and he lifted his head up, worry was in his eyes. "You're a Vampire?" He asked, as his nose twitched. I nodded. "It's not a problem is it?" I asked, knowing that it wasn't just Water Dragons that had a problem with Vampires. He shook his head no with a smile. "How old are you? I only know Beta Ari's age." He said, as he went back to fidgeting with his hands. I grabbed his hands stopping him and he looked at me again. "342 years old." I told him. "You?" "17 as of five minutes ago." He answered. He was still a minor, but I understood why Alpha Dreg uses him as a representative. He was very smart and strong for his age. "Name?" "Frost." He answered, with an a

Arabella POV I was at the bridal shop with Emiko and Channing. We were all looking at dresses trying to find the right one for my wedding with Tate. He had proposed to me last week during a trip to Paris to meet with other Alpha's about the New Years Eve Mate Ball, which we chosen to host this year. I was looking at a dress when I heard a throat clear. I turned around and it was shop owner. "The Luna Queen thought you would like to see something she requested of us to make." He said, before leading me to a room, and there on a maniquin was a wedding dress with the crest of my ship and clan in silver on the veil and back of the dress. Tears threatened to spill. "Oh I can't afford a custom dress." I told him. "I didn't want my mate to pay for anything." "It's a gift from the Alpha King and Luna Queen." He told me with a smile. "And it's paid upfront for any adjustments we must make or if there's something about it you don'

Dreg (Channings real mate) POV Now Channing was telling me about how she first met my Beta Ari, when I thought of how I met Arabella Wilder, the woman who for centuries tried to ruin my life whenever we met during the resets. *FLASHBACK TO GREENWICH, ENGLAND 1533* It's been a few months since the princess was born, the King had been expecting a son, but it shows to never trust a Siren when it comes to telling the sex of a child before it's born. My men and I had been releived of duty and we were out at a tavern drinking ale, when a bunch of woman came in. They reeked of trouble and one of them was my mate, I hated the scent she had, the scent that I was supposed to love. I looked around the tavern and I stopped when I saw her. I knew her because she was a wanted outlaw, working with a man name John Earkenhait. They were always looking for new women and men to work to death. "That's Arabella Wilder, Outlaw Pira
