I felt it course through me, then penetrate her, fighting against the forces that threatened to snuff out her light. My heart raced as I struggled to keep my concentration. Never before had I attempted such a complex healing . She was not injured. Her magical essence had been depleted, her life forc
“Do you plan to take over as alpha for your father’s pack?” I asked.Elena snorted, shaking her head.“My younger brother will be alpha. I…” Elena trailed off hesitantly, eyes suddenly flickering towards Amaya. “I had a mate who was an alpha,” Elena admitted, looking down at her hands.I noted the w
“We will not have heirs,” I replied briskly. “At least not biological ones. It has already been decided by us.”Sinclair’s lips pressed into a thin line. He was scowling.“And who will become alpha after you then? I know Evelina did not want children, but I had hoped things had changed now…” Sinclai
**Evelina’s POV** Tia Mel sat at the head of the table, her lips pressed into a thin line. The circles under her eyes were pronounced. I could tell she was exhausted. Whilst I had been able to get some rest, she had been trying to manage things with her coven and had sent help to Avalon. But things
“I may not have wanted this life initially,” I began calmly as tension rolled through the room. “But I have never shied away from fighting for what is right. I may have been reluctant to embrace my magic, but once I did, I never looked back.” Pausing for effect, I raised my gaze to meet Aria’s. “And
“You were here the whole time?” I asked in surprise, hugging her back. “Having a mate that can make you invisible helps,” Uncle Brad chuckled, patting my back before moving to stand next to Tia Mel. “Can I just say, I am so happy Mel can just be the female-gamma now. No more witchy stuff.” Aunt Me
**Gabe’s POV** My mate walked towards me, adorned with a wreath of vibrant green vines resting on her head like a crown. She was a vision of regality and power. Her dark green silk dress hugged her figure, highlighting her curves and emphasizing the royal status of a Coven Head. But despite the of
“Mi vida,” I breathed looking down at her as my breath ghosted her lips. “From the moment you entered into my life, everything changed. You are my anchor and my storm—both the calm I seek and the fire I crave. I have known battles, I have known loss, but with you, I have found something I never thou
“I’m right here!” Dad announced, walking through the double doors on the other side of the dining room. “I was just having a talk with Elena since she’s done in the kitchen. Making sure border security was up to par around here.” Gabe huffed. “My beta and I can maintain security without your help,
He nearly shot the doctor when the doctor tried to explain that taking out the placenta was a normal part of delivery and nothing had gone wrong. He also had not been happy that his beautiful daughter was covered in blood. “She’s got her father’s eyes,” Mama murmured, still staring down at Marcela
EpilogueThree months later… **Evelina’s POV** “She’s beautiful!” breathed Tia Melanie as Mama held Marcela in her arms I smiled, exhausted yet so very happy as we sat in the living room of our little home. Gabe, sitting next to me, pressed a kiss to my forehead. Our daughter, Marcela, had been b
I put my head in my hands, my own face flushed with embarrassment. Is this what normal in-laws were like? My grandfather was always obsessed with teaching my mother and father how to defeat their enemies. Not make pups. Maybe that’s why I had been an only child. “Evie! I just thought you would appr
She leaned in closer, her entrance teasing my cock as her eyes burned into mine as her shadows swirled around us. The tendrils slid against my skin, building a crescendo of need. They played with my dick, while her wetness swirled around the tip. I stayed perfectly still, sweat beading my forehead.
**Gabe's POV**Later that very same day, Evelina settled next to me in bed, snuggling next to me. It had been an eventful day to say the least. Evelina, however, had a smile on her face. Which made me happy. She was my world. I looked over at her, and gently brushed her hair behind her ear. “What
Lorenzo looked quickly at Raina again. “I would never take my child away from his mother. Do you really think so little of me? Or did you just want to stay the mistress of Diablo?” He glowered at Raina. “I was never good enough for you, was I? Which is why you didn’t want to take up the position as
**Gabe’s POV** I would have loved to say we lived happily ever after. Like in the books and fairytales. But unfortunately, real life was not like that. How could we live happily ever after after losing so many people? Vin was gone. Alpha Xavier was too. And so were countless of the best warriors an
Everyone bowed their heads in the clearing of the moon goddesses temple. I wiped the tears from my eyes. We had lost many good people in the war against demons. But Uncle Tony was right, their legacy would live on with us. We would never forget how bravely they fought. Claire, Aunt Alyssa and Uncl
