Moon Glow Chapter 77
Gunfire rang out across the expanse and everyone in the dune buggy ducked. Coming in from the west, a second helicopter darted by between the dune buggy and the first helicopter. The helicopter changed its angle to get a better shot at the new intruder. “Okay. We have their attention. Put that pedal to the floor and get to the mountain. I am not sure how long I can hold them off.” It was Taji. He had used his helicopter as a distraction to give them time to get to the mountain. Amaris did not remember any of those helicopters having weapons on them. Lyle took off sprinting the dune buggy in the direction of safety. Taji swung his helicopter around to reveal two of the men that he had brought with him. They were holding a large machine gun in place. It was the kind that was meant to be mounted to the deck but clearly they had not had time. As they fired at the enemy helicopter the gun bucked and the men strained to hold it in place and aim at their target. Their attempt went wide of

Amaris gave a sigh of relief. From the little she knew about Lyle, she knew that he had been very close to his father. While she had never seen the watch before she knew it must hold a lot of sentimental value for him. Taji spread out on the table and everyone gathered around him to watch him work. He laid out his tools with care. He picked up the watch and examined it. He took out the jeweler’s loop and looked more closely at the outside of the watch. Taji put his hands down, turned quickly and shot a quizzical look at Lyle. He then went back to inspecting the watch. “Where did your father get this watch?” Taji asked turning to Lyle once again. “My father returned from a business trip and he had gotten it. It was always very special to him. He was never without it. When I got older he made it clear that I was to inherit the watch and my brother to inherit the coat of arms that was made specially for our family. He brought that back with him from that same trip also. “ Lyle had now m

The three walked together out across the hanger floor and around the helicopters that she had seen earlier. They crossed completely to the other side of the hanger, to a door that Amaris had not noticed before. Walking out into yet another stone hallway, they met up with the rest of the group who were already wearing their haversacks. Amaris released Anna’s hand with a smile and walked over to where Lyle was standing waiting for her. He had very gentlemanly swung both haversacks on, one over each shoulder. “Let’s get moving. We have taken the tracker out of Lyle's watch and disabled it. They will know now that we found it, but I am sure that they are gathering ground support, as we speak, to come back here as quickly as possible. We need to be gone before they arrive. Taji your men will also bug out shortly.” Taji nodded and stepped back to speak into his watch. He walked back to the group a few seconds later. Christos turned and walked down the hallway which ended in a do

Amaris snuggled into Lyle's shoulder and stared out the window on the opposite side of the train car. The underground lights and the stone flew by at an amazing speed. She had not noticed until that moment that they had been moving so fast. The island was small. If they kept up this pace, they would be at the opposite side in no time. Looking over at the rest of the group, Amaris noticed that they were deep in conversation. She nudged Lyle and motioned for him to follow her over to the group. Lyle and Amaris walked over and sat with the others. Anna and Taji turned and smiled at them in greeting, but no one else acknowledged their prescence. Marco and Christos seemed to be in a deep discussion while Jason was furiously typing on his phone. “We will get to my grandmothers’ cottage and hunker down there. Since we are no longer being tracked, we may actually get time to compare notes and figure a few things out.” Christos said to the group. “We are going to need to go on the offensive a

The inside was surprisingly like an ordinary house. They were in an entry foyer that had a marble floor with a mosaic design in it. It was a design that at first glance looked like an olive branch with a large number of leaves. Once you walked closer, the scene changed and it took on the shape of a wolf's head with green eyes peering through the foliage. The eyes were so realistic from that point of view, it unnerved Amaris. It felt like the wolf was really watching you. Christos paid no attention to the foyer and moved through the room quickly, having been there many times in his youth. The rest of the group followed single file Amaris was almost the last to leave. Lyle was still there and again he seemed to sense her feeling of being unnerved and put his arm around her shoulder and steared her away from the mosaic and out of the room. Once she was out of the room, Amaris felt better. Christos had led the group into a very comfortable looking living room with a large sto

Anna bounded forward and ran her hand down the marble counter along the wall. The three center islands were all stainless steel, but each one was set up as a station for making different types of things. One was clearly for meats, the middle one for vegetables, and the far one was for desserts. "Oh Taji will love this!" Anna spun around in a circle with a big grin on her face. "I am glad you approve." Christos said with an appreciative grin. The pantry is through that door over there. It has been well stocked. Do not use anything from this fridge or the freezers." He pointed to a big cabinet next to him. The girls agreed and Christos left to go get the others settled. "What do you want to make?" Anna asked looking like she was ready to sprint laps around the kitchen. Amaris walked toward the pantry door, Anna right behind her. She opened it up and both their faces fell. It was stocked floor to ceiling with MREs. "Really!" Anna exclaimed in disgust. "Don't these guy

Lyle and Amaris pulled stools over to the counter next to where Anna sat. Each of them grabbed up a bowl of stew and began to eat in silence. When everyone was done Amaris collected the dishes and began to wash them in the sink. Lyle got up. Looking for something to do he walked over to the stove and started the ketlle. "You look like you could use another cup of tea." He said to Anna, taking her cup from her as she finished the last dregs. "Amaris would you like one?" Lyle said as he began to move across the kitchen to the counter where the box of tea bags sat. He looked like he was moving in a daze, just looking for something to keep busy. Without waiting for an answer he opened the supboard and took out 2 more mugs. He continued to busy himself.Amaris finished washing the dishes lost in her own thoughts. Now that Anna was clearly out of danger and they were back to normal, Amaris realized that she could feel strong emotions coming from Lyle. A profound sense of sadness

The control room was a series of monitors and keyboard stations that had surveylance from all the cameras on the property, but also from other cameras in places that Amaris recognized from around the island. Marco, Taji, and Jason were there, but no Christos. They were all seated at different workstations. They had turned around to see who had just walked into the room. "Anna is going to stay with you guys now that she is feeling a little warmer." Lyle said to them as the girls walked into the room. Taji spun his chair around the rest of the way, and opened his arms. Anna went to him and he sat her on his lap like a little kid. Taji wrapped his arms around her and then spun them around in the chair like a merry-go-round. Anna let out a giggle and started yelling for him to stop or she would get sick. Lyle reached down and took Amaris' hand. Without another word, turned and walked out of the room. Marco stared after them worried. Lyle walked Amaris back the way that the

Amaris and Lyle sat at the table in the RV which had now become their home. They had settled into their life together on the run. They drove through the European countryside acting like all the rest of the tourists. They stayed away from areas that were known concentrated werewolf areas. They fell into their day-to-day routine, and Lyle had even taught Amaris how to drive the RV. Amaris was starting to show now, and Lyle was concerned that she did not have the proper doctor's care for her pregnancy. More than once he had tried to see if he could find a pack doctor that was willing to see her that was not loyal to the crown. However, they were in Europe, where the werewolves were most loyal to the King or Queen, since they were so close to them. He had not had any luck. They had not had any contact with anyone that they knew, as they had planned. Lyle had bought a burner phone in case of an emergency, but had not even turned it on yet so that there was no way to trace them. To further

Amaris bent down to see Anna at her feet holding her bleeding leg. She had changed back and was now naked. Amaris stripped off her hoodie and gave it to her grateful best friend. "Are you okay?" Amaris asked Anna while looking over to see if Lyle had moved. "I'll be fine. It's nothing Taji can't take care of when he gets back. Go check on your mate." Anna said watching the torn look on Amaris' face. Amaris looked back and gave Anna's shoulder a squeeze, and then hurried to Lyle. Amaris dropped to her knees between Lyle and The King's corpse. Lyle was breathing. It was as if he was asleep. Amaris knew that he must be like the others that she had brought back. It would drain her of her energy to do it. Then she took a look at the area around her. There were so many men and women that were injured and needed help. She knew that Taji could not do it all on his own. Amaris thought about how to heal them all for a moment, and then came up with an idea. She took a deep breath and closed her
Moon Glow Chapter 198
Alexis and Andreas' men were attacking in their wolf form. They were coming in from every side, and from the look of it they had The King's men out numbered. The clearing was in an uproar with men and wolves everywhere. Before Amaris knew what was happening, Lyle had transformed into his wolf and leaped between her and The King. His muzzle wrinkled as he bared his teeth and growled in warning. The King looked at him and merely laughed. He reached behind him and grabbed the staff that he had back at the palace. Lyle seemed to recognize it and backed up a few steps. The King laughed at his retreat. "Smart lad. Hand her over and I will not have to use it." Lyle backed up a few more steps and this time he leaned into Amaris pushing her back too. The fighting was still going on around them. Many of The King's men lay upon the ground, and most of the rest were fighting two or three wolves now, since they were severely out numbered. Amaris saw that many of the wolves were making their way cl

Lyle walked around the back of the house to the UTV as the truck drove away. He climbed in and looked at Amaris. "Decoy." He said with a thumb over his shoulder. "Where did you find him? He looks like your doppleganger." Amaris asked amazed. "Funny thing. When I went to get some of those items that we needed earlier, he was the supply clerk that helped me. I asked him to help me out this evening by taking the truck out for a test drive to see if the repairs I made earlier are going to hold. I told him I needed to drive a short way behind to see if it was okay." Lyle laughed again. "So that poor guy has no idea that he is bait?" Amaris was getting ready to get out of the UTV. "I did tell him that since we were hiding out that we need to be extra vigilent for the possibility of attack, which is more likely since we have been here for a while." Amaris got angry. "Lyle, that poor man could get killed because they think that he is you!" She turned and yelled at him. "We
Moon Glow Chapter 196
Amaris' mouth hung open for a moment, and then anger grew. "Who? Who whipped you?" Lyle turned to look at her, then down to the floor. "Adam and Sveta. They were made for each other. They are equally twisted and driven by their need for power." Lyle said with a dismissive tone and then almost mechanically started taking the rest of his clothes off. It was clear that he did not want to continue this conversation any further. Amaris walked over and lifted his face to hers from his bent over position. "I'm sorry." She said in a whisper that cracked from the emotion behind it. "I did not want any of this, least of all for you to be hurt." she kissed his cheek tenderly. Lyle dropped the clothes that he was holding and put his arms around her. "This is not your fault. Don't ever think that. This is not something that you chose. You were as much thrown into this as the rest of us. This is all the fault of the ones who have greed and lust in their heart. The ones who have

Lyle dropped it back into the pack and put a few things in from the pile that he had set aside to go into the truck. Then he grabbed the pack that Amaris was filling and sorted through her things. He found a tracker there too. "Well, at least we know it wasn't Kliman. He never touched your pack." Lyle said as he moved over to the doorway of the barn. Sitting against the wall of the barn were a few dozen hiking packs waiting to be filled. Lyle grabbed two from the end and handed one to Amaris. "Fill them with everything that you will need. Only one extra set of clothes, and a couple extra pairs of socks and underware. Food, and matches, and so on." Lyle was moving so quickly that Amaris was not sure what to grab first to stay out of his way. "Quickly! We need to do this before he gets back, or anyone else comes along and sees us." They both hurried and filled their packs and then Lyle took them both and told Amaris to stay there and he would be right back. While Lyle wa
Moon Glow Chapter 194
When Amaris' hand touched the young man's arm she suddenly was transported to another time. It was night here. There was the unmistakable sounds of fighting. Growls, and yelling all around her. The young man that Amaris had just been talking to was in front of her hiding behind a tree. He held some sort of black box in his hand and loooked to be waiting for something. "Where are we?" She asked the young man in a whisper as she stepped closer to him. The man did not respond. He did not even look at her. She reached up to tap him on his shoulder. Her hand went right through him. Amaris jumped back startled. She stared at her own hand, and then tried to touch the tree next to her. Her hand passed through that too. She took another look around her. She realized that the man standing next to her was speaking. "They are leaving now. Green transport truck. She is hidden in the back under the tarp. Out" The man said. He was putting the box away and turned to leave in th

Amaris stood there frozen and watched the back of Gran as she walked out of the room. She slowly sank back down on the couch next to Lyle again. He still had not moved from his spot, but seemed to be in deep thought. Amaris brought Lyle out of his stupor by grabbing his hand. "Did she just say what I think that she said? Are we going to have a baby?" Amaris thought about what Gran had said 'Little ones'. What did she mean? Was she talking about our children in the future? Amaris felt just like she often had lately after talking to Gran, more confused. Lyle took a deep breath and turned to Amaris. "According to the tapestries that we saw earlier, you and I will have one set of twins. A boy and a girl. Like you they will also have powers. Which means that like you they will also be hunted by others for what they can do." Lyle hung his head. He did not want to think about his children being hunted anymore than he wanted to think about Amaris being hunted. Now it was Ama

Amaris sat back and looked at Gran who had a big grin on her face. Anna walked over and squeezed in between Lyle and Amaris. "Sorry Romeo, but we need to get this meeting moving, and you just can't help yourself." She said patting Lyle on the shoulder at his disappointed look. Lyle rubbed the back of his neck again and smiled raising his hands in the air. "Got me." There were a few laughs and then everyone turned back to Gran. "Well, as I was saying. We will be splitting up." Everyone gathered around her nodded. Gran had presented this idea already, and no one seemed to disagree with her. "Lyle you will be taking Amaris and hiding. NONE of us is to know where you are." Amaris' eyes grew wide and worry now crept in. Up to this point she had been able to stay safe because she had the help of a lot of people. She did not want anyone else to die, and she was afraid that she would get Lyle killed if he felt that he was her only line of defense. Gran pointed a finger at Amari
