I finally fell asleep and I heard it again, The whisper grew louder, "Syla, it's me, I'm your Father Thorn." My heart froze. The voice echoed in my mind. "Father? I don't understand," I whispered, trembling.The Dark Fae King emerged from the shadows in my dream, his piercing eyes fixed on mine."Syla, my daughter, "Thorn's deep voice resonated. "I've come for you...and my grandchildren. My grandchildren. My legacy."Fear gripped me, remembering Josie's words: "Father will come."Thorne's gaze softened, his voice filled with affection. "Syla, my daughter, my blood. You're all I have left." A mix of emotions swirled within me: fear, love, and uncertainty.I called Storm to my dreams He heard me and came, holding me tight.Thorne's expression turned stern. "Fear not, wolf. I mean no harm to Syla or my grandchildren."Storm's eyes narrowed. "Your actions contradict your words."The Dark Fae King's expression turned cold. "Silence, wolf! You know nothing." Storm stepped forward. "We know
It had been days and He had not reached out to me, but I could feel him close. My curiosity got the better of me and I called for Kira to come, Rose and Mom helped me with my babies who were growing so fast, I had noticed that they could call things to them, that they wanted, One day I saw their favorite teddy floating through the air, I need to speak to Kira."What's wrong she said as she walked in." I smiled, We only seem to call her when things are bad, "I'm sorry, I just wanted to talk, and some things are happening with my babies that I don't understand."Like what she said as she walked over to them giving them kisses. She knew they were special but didn't know the extent until I told her what they had been doing. "They are the grandchildren of a Dark Fae Kind their magic will be outstanding, I would like to work with them when they are older," she said."You said you knew my father?" I began, "I want to know more about him, I know nothing at all except that he is a King."Kira'
Weeks of tranquility had passed, and our lives gradually returned to normal. Beta Samul arrived, announcing Alpha Roland's impending visit. We gathered outside, warmly welcoming him. As we strolled in together, Alpha Roland inquired, "How are things here?" Smiles spread across our faces, and Alpha Lukarien replied, "We have much to share."A maid interrupted, announcing dinner's readiness. "Will you join us?" Alpha Lukarien offered. We filed into the dining room, lively chatter filling the air. Plates were placed before us, and I poured a glass of wine, savoring the permission to enjoy two glasses daily, courtesy of Rain's careful monitoring.Alpha Roland's eyes sparkled with interest. "Tell me, what's new?" Mom's smile hinted at the secrets shared. "Thorn, the Dark Fae King, visited," she revealed. Alpha Roland's eyebrows shot up, intrigue piqued."And our babies' powers are emerging," I added, excitement building. Alpha Roland leaned in, his voice low. "Remarkable. What have you obs
Time passed peacefully since Dad's arrival, with his protection shielding our pack from evil and safeguarding my babies. One day, while playing, our little one Kaden who was standing by me holding onto my hands turned to his Father Storm and took his first steps, capturing our hearts. Alpha captured the precious moment on video, and we all teared up. His brothers watched as they too wanted to follow him they let go and took their first steps, each going to their father, I smiled at them with tears in my tear "Good Dad beamed with pride, saying, "I'm so proud of you all." His regular visits strengthened our bond. As we sat around the den celebrating their new feats. Kira mind-linked urgently, *Come quickly. Something's wrong.* We rushed to her, finding Josie in agony, bald and screaming. during the night she had pulled out all of her hair. The sight was horrifying. Dad intervened, recognizing the demonic torture. "She's being tortured by the demons she has summoned, she invited them
We stayed two more nights with Ashley and Gage and then we packed up and headed back home. On the way back we decided to stop at a quaint little restaurant along the way. It looked like it was a throwback from the 50's but the food was amazing and we were all starving and we still had a good ways to go. After filling our bellies and eating some delicious homemade dessert, we all piled back into Rain's Hummer and we took off again, heading for home. Dad had disappeared and I'm sure he would reappear when we got back home. His way of traveling was different. It was so nice to see the mansion come into view as we drove up to the front door, we all pilled out of both hummers. Our pack of wolves that had come with us had already made it back because they had shifted and ran back up the mountain. The kids were all sleepy after their bellies got full and they fell asleep in their car seats, on the drive home. We carefully carried them upstairs and set them in their baby bed, it was one
Thorn had had enough of this, He suddenly disappeared. I was shocked that he would just leave us in this situation. But then I noticed things starting to change like we were slowly moving back in time. That was when I knew, he was time warping and had changed the future, and now we were adjusting to it, everyone seemed to be frozen but me. I watched it all take place, we slowly went back to our fire in our spot and then I saw Ryker getting wood, but he was walking backward, Dad was not done.I sat down I was feeling light-headed, Dad rushed to my side and caught me before I fell. "I got you, love." he said easing me down into my chair, "you're just a little off balance."Because of what you did?" I asked, and he shook his head yes. "I could not go back far enough to stop her mother from getting pregnant, "So she is still out there, and still a huge threat. She is just as ruthless as her brother." he said as he looked toward Ashley's pack, "She knows that's where he was killed, you hav
Alpha dispatched Ryker Blaze, and Storm for reconnaissance. "Report Lyra's movements," he instructed.Under darkness, Ryker, Blaze, and Storm approached Lyra's camp, Demon's senses alert. They observed from shadows, noting guards and patrols."Lyra's mobilizing," Ryker whispered."Where are they moving to?"Alpha asked. "...And is the wall finished?""The wall is done, They are adding the weapons now, We also put up Guard post. Ryker added.Alpha's eyes narrowed, analyzing the intel. "Lyra's mobilizing, targeting Ashley's pack." Ryker nodded affirmatively. "I just got informed that our defenses are ready, Alpha." Blaze reported, "Guard posts manned, lasers online." Storm added, "Patrols doubled, All on high alert." Alpha declared decisively, "Battle readiness! Protect our lands."Ashley's pack was prepared, and determined. Thorn's dark energy fortified borders, bolstering defenses. Kira's spirit shone brightly. Just then, Lyra's distant howl echoed, signaling her approach. Ryker's Demo

As we finally reached the safety of our Mansion, I could feel the tension and anger still radiating from my mates. Blaze, in particular, was struggling to keep his emotions in check. He kept his eyes fixed on Flame, his jaw clenched and his fists curled into tight balls. Ryker, sensing his brother's distress, placed a calming hand on Blaze's shoulder. "We'll get through this, brother," he said, his voice low and soothing. "We'll make sure Flame is always safe." I nodded in agreement, holding Flame close to my chest. "We'll do whatever it takes to protect our pack and our family," I said, my voice firm and resolute. Storm and Rain, who had been quiet until now, stepped forward, their eyes blazing with determination. "We're all gonna need a new security system, they got into our territory too easily," Storm said, his voice deep and gravelly. "We'll fight to the death to protect our pack, but we need to secure our borders." Rain nodded in agreement, her eyes flashing with anger. "We'll s
As the fight raged on, I managed to grab one of the Shadow Fang Pack warriors and pin him to the ground. I glared at him, my eyes blazing with anger. "Why?" I demanded. "Why is the Shadow Fang Pack attacking us?" The warrior sneered at me, but I could see the fear lurking in his eyes. "You have something we want," he spat. "Something that will give us the power to dominate all the other packs." I tightened my grip on his throat. "What is it?" I growled. The warrior hesitated, then spoke in a barely audible whisper. "The Venom. We want the Venom." I exchanged a shocked glance with Ryker. “We've heard that your pack has developed a way to harness the power of the Venom. We want that power for ourselves." “Your men died for nothing, you can’t just take it, It has to be given freely.” I grinned, “..and none of us will ever give it to any of you!”I was stunned. I had no idea that the Shadow Fang Pack knew about our ability to transfer the Venom. And I certainly had no idea that they wan
As the night wore on and the celebration continued, I couldn't help but notice that a few pack members seemed out of place. They were the ones who had not been chosen to be transformed into Venom Lycans, and they seemed to be growing increasingly resentful.One of them, a tall, brooding figure named Rodney, caught my eye. He was standing at the edge of the crowd, his eyes fixed on me with a mixture of anger and resentment.I felt a shiver run down my spine as I realized that Rodney and a few others had been acting strangely over the past few weeks. They had been absent from pack meetings and gatherings, and when they did attend, they seemed distant and preoccupied.Suddenly, it clicked into place. I remembered a conversation I had overheard between Rodney and another pack member, a quiet, reserved woman named Aria. They had been talking about the transformation, and how they had been passed over."I don't understand why we weren't chosen," Aria had said, her voice barely above a whisp
As the night wore on, the music grew louder and the dancing more energetic. My mates and I were having the time of our lives, with our children running around in their costumes, laughing and spinning to the rhythm of the music.Suddenly, Blaze grabbed my hand and pulled me into a dramatic dip, his mask glinting in the light. He was dressed as a fiery phoenix, his costume a dazzling array of orange and red feathers, with wings attached to his arms that shimmered and shined under the lights.Storm and Rain joined in, twirling me around in a dizzying circle of color and music. Storm was dressed as a majestic storm god, his costume a powerful combination of dark blues and grays, with lightning bolts embroidered on his hooded cloak and a crown of thunderbolts on his head. Rain, on the other hand, was dressed as a mysterious and elusive rain spirit, his costume a shimmering array of blues and greens, with water droplets embroidered on his sleeves and a crown of mist on his head.Ryker watch
As our council added two more members to represent the new pack in our territory, we all sat in our monthly meeting. The new members introduced themselves with a brief story of who they were. We all sat listening to Alpha King Blaze, he stood first, with the monthly plans and agenda of what we expected from the community. They all took notes, Alpha King Storm stood next with building plans, including a new gym for the school, as well as a track for the running team. Next was Alpha King Rain, his needs were more medical, with adding an emergency care center to the clinic that would be open 24/7.Alpha Ryker stood requesting that some new shops be built for those who had their own business working out of their homes. Our little community was growing, so I suggested that we just build a mall, which would house all the shops including a much-needed beauty shop. Where we could get our hair and nails done. The meeting ended with well-formed plans for the month.As the meeting came to a clos
The next night, We all gathered again by a bonfire, as Ryker told the story of how they became a rogue pack. Ryker's eyes gleamed with a mix of sadness and pride as he began to tell his story by a crackling fire underneath a star-filled night sky. "I was born into a life of privilege," he started, his voice low and husky. "My father was an Alpha King, ruler of a powerful pack. But with power comes corruption, and my father's pack was no exception."Ryker's expression turned bitter. "I saw the way our people were treated, like nothing more than pawns to be used and discarded. I saw the injustice, the cruelty, and the oppression. And I knew I had to get out." I saw him take a deep breath, “My own mother was killed for not fixing his dinner, the way he liked it, the steaming hot food was thrown in her face, scalding her severely, and then she was thrown into a dungeon where she burns festered and she died, I never got to see her again, after his guards dragged her away. I was too young
As the sun dipped below the horizon, casting a warm orange glow over the gathering, Alpha, Blaze, Storm, Rain, Samuel, and I stood before our pack, our hearts swelling with pride and purpose. Ryker, Naki, Mom, and Rose, who had already proven themselves worthy, stepped forward, their eyes shining with excitement and anticipation. Ryker's pack watched with awe, as their Alpha became a Full blooded Lycan, before their eyes, the most powerful, of all the shifters. They knew that they too would soon join him, he was more than their Alpha he was loved like a father figure to them all.We raised our hands, and as we did, a powerful surge of energy flowed through us, a gift from the Moon Goddess. The air around us seemed to vibrate with an otherworldly power, and I could feel the weight of our pack's history and destiny settling upon me like a Royal Robe This power surged through us and a pulsating blue tribal mark started to appear on all of our necks, We were now the chosen ones. The ones
We nodded solemnly, understanding the weight of the responsibility that came with this gift. Xandros continued, "The Moon Goddess will impart her power upon you, but you must first prove yourselves worthy. You must undergo a trial, one that will test your strength, courage, and wisdom."We exchanged nervous glances, unsure of what to expect. But we were determined to succeed, to prove ourselves worthy of the Moon Goddess's precious gift.Xandros gestured to a path behind it, a path that wound deep into the heart of the forest. "The trial awaits you," it said. "You must journey to the Heart Tree, where the Moon Goddess's power resides. But be warned, the journey is treacherous, and you will face many challenges along the way."We steeled ourselves, ready to face whatever lay ahead. With a deep breath, we set off on our journey, following the winding path as it led us deeper into the forest. Ryker held my hand, “I got you, love!” he smiled. “We all do!” Blaze, Storm, and Rain said in un
The next morning, I woke up feeling refreshed and renewed. I stretched, yawned, and got out of bed, ready to start the day. My mates were already up, making breakfast in the kitchen."Good morning," my mates all said, smiling at me. "Sleep well?"I nodded, smiling back at him. "Yeah, I did. That was a great night."Blaze handed me a cup of coffee, and I took a sip, moaning as I felt the caffeine kick in. "What's the plan for today?" Storm asked, looking at me.I thought for a moment. "I was thinking we could check in on the Mystic Mountain Sister pack. See how they're doing. I missed Naki," even though I saw her last night we didn’t get a chance to talk.My mates nodded in agreement, and we quickly made plans for the day. As we finished breakfast and headed out, I felt a sense of excitement and purpose. We had a lot to do. As we walked, I couldn't help but think about Akira's stories from the night before. Our pack's history was complex and fascinating, and I was grateful to have such
