Caleb-
“I can see you are mad.” Zeke said, without giving me an answer to my question.
“Mad? That isn’t even remotely close to what I am feeling. I am pissed. Because I listened to you, I thought that it was better for everyone that I left. If I would have known it was something else, I would have never left in the first place. Now because of what you told me, as well as the secrets you and Selene like to keep, I learn that I just spent the last two centuries nearly, alone. I hurt Kyra and Hunter because none of you could tell me the truth.” I yelled, standing up from the couch until I was practically towering over Zeke.
“It isn’t his fault.” I heard Selene say, but when I turned around to confront her, I didn’t see her.
“Where the fuck are you?” I yelled, no longer caring that I was ready to give in to the rage that was consuming me.
“I will not reveal myself until you are cal
Kyra-My mind was still in a fog when I woke up, or at least I thought I had woken up. Now I wasn’t so sure. The first thing I saw was Caleb’s face when I opened my eyes, so I thought maybe I was dreaming or something. It has been a long time since I saw him, so I wasn’t sure if what I was seeing was real.Maybe I just needed to sit up, to wake up. As much as I wanted to see Caleb, I didn’t know if I could handle it right now. I felt numb like my body and mind were shut down. No doubt I was in shock still, but at least now I wasn’t breaking down.It was bad enough that I keep hearing Ace in my head, like a constant reminder that Hunter was no longer here. I don’t know how it is possible, but I can feel Ace in the same way I felt Alexia when I had her. Okay, maybe not in the same way.Sitting up, I kept my eyes on Caleb. He moved back slightly to give me room to get up, but after blinking a few more times, he was still h
Hunter-My lungs felt like they were going to explode. I don’t understand why I felt as if I couldn’t breathe, I should be dead right now. It was as if something was pressing down on my chest, and I couldn’t catch a breath.Gasping for air, I struggled to sit up, but I was pinned down by something. I couldn’t see anything, nor could I move my hands to feel for whatever was on top of me. If I wasn’t dead, then I needed to find a way to get to Kyra. Where was I though?“Ace?” I called out to my wolf in my head.The only thing I heard was the echo of my voice though, it was like I had spoken out loud. Panic began to fill me, as I continued to struggle against what had my wrists and ankles bound. I was a werewolf, so why could I not see in the darkness that surrounded me?“No wolf here.” I heard someone, or thing say, I couldn’t be sure what had spoken, it sounded nothing like human or beast.
Caleb-For the next two nights, Kyra slept in my bed, while I slept in the chair. As much as I tried, I couldn’t get her to leave the room for anything. Since she wasn’t taking in any fluids, she was barely even getting up to use the restroom.I was at my wit’s end, unsure of what I could do to convince her she needed to eat. If she kept going the way she was, she was going to follow Hunter in death. Everything I have tried hasn’t worked. Now more than ever I needed to keep my promise to Hunter.I didn’t believe she was far enough along to hear the baby’s heartbeat, but I was pretty sure it wasn’t going to survive at the rate Kyra was going. It was as if she has just given up and was refusing to move forward with her life, without her mate. I had to do something, even if it meant forcing her to eat and get fluids in her.Only two days wasn’t going to do any substantial damage to Kyra, but that didn’t m
Kyra- “Please.” I said, hoping that they would just leave me alone. I didn’t know what they were planning to do, but it really wasn’t important. They were going to put something in my nose that was going to keep me alive. I thought long and hard about everything and I just couldn’t live in a world where Hunter wasn’t here. “I hope you forgive me for what I am about to do.” I heard my friend Mel say, but I couldn’t see her. When I tried to turn my head, Caleb tightened his grip so I couldn’t move. It wasn’t that he was hurting me, I just felt too drained to even try to fight it. All my energy just felt as if it had been drained. “What are you going to do?” I asked. “I am going to place this tube inside of you, through your nose. This is so we can feed you through the tube and you can start regaining your strength. You will feel pressure while I insert it. It will help if you continue to swallow so it isn’t as uncomfortable for you.” Mel
Hunter- The two creatures left after getting me cleaned up and even getting me some clothing. I don’t know how long it has been, but it has felt as if I have been here forever, as I waited for the one who sent me here. My head was spinning with possibilities, yet I couldn’t fathom who would send me here. Or at least I could imagine who would have the ability to do so. It wasn’t that I didn’t have enemies, I had a lot, more than I probably even realized. For the life of me though, I couldn’t rack my brain about who it could be. “Oh good, you are up.” I heard the same female voice from earlier say. Turning around, I looked in the direction of where the voice came from but I couldn’t see anyone. I remembered that I couldn’t see outside of the cage, which was annoying as hell. Stepping towards the side of the cage I was sure the female was at, I placed my hands on the bars. “Who is there?” I asked into the darkness. “It matters not who I a
Caleb- I hated the fact I had to go to such extreme measures to ensure Kyra didn’t take out the feeding tube. What was worse was the fact that her tears now weren’t from losing Hunter. She was crying as she cursed my name. It hurt more than I cared to admit to anyone, but I still felt as if I was doing the right thing. It has only been twenty-four hours since tying her down and forcing her to eat and drink through a tube. Just in that short amount of time though, I could already tell she was getting stronger. Luckily Nick was able to get some power dampeners to keep Kyra from using her abilities. She hasn’t attempted to shift yet, which was a relief. I was trying to come up with a way to keep her from shifting as well, for when she did try though. She wasn’t like other werewolves, so the same tactics didn’t work on her. I had contacted Alec and told him what I had to do. He wasn’t exactly thrilled with it, but he said it was probably for the best. He
Kyra- Guilt slammed into me as soon as Caleb walked out. It wasn’t like I meant the words I had said, but at the same time, I did. I wanted to hurt him, so I lashed out at him. Maybe if I hurt him enough he would be willing to let me die. More than anything I just wanted to be done with this world. Without Hunter, I felt more alone than I ever have. How was I supposed to survive without the one that I loved more than anything in this world? “You can’t die.” I heard Ace speak into my mind. It was still weird that he was here, but he was also the one tie that I had to Hunter. The only thing I didn’t like was that he wasn’t here all the time. It was like one minute he would be with me, the next he would be gone. “I can’t live without him.” I cried, except I spoke out loud. “You still have me. I can’t lose you.” Ace spoke, his words cutting through my heart. “You keep leaving me. That hurts the worst. I feel like maybe you are just
Caleb- I didn’t say a word as Kyra knelt over the toilet and cried. I wasn’t sure if this was a good sign or not. After taking some time to think things over, I thought maybe it was time I tried a different tactic. I still refused to let her die. It took everything in me not to let her see that I still didn’t want her to die. That was why I decided to use our life bond as leverage. With everything she has been saying, I wasn’t sure if it was going to work, but I had hoped that she didn’t really hate me. I figured if she remembered that I would die if she did, maybe she would reconsider her plan to give up. For a split second, I thought I saw regret in her eyes, just before she rushed into the bathroom. As I stood there, holding her hair back, I wasn’t sure. Her tears still gutted me. Not knowing what to do or say, I just kept silent as she cried and vomited. When she finally stopped and sat up, I released her hair, taking a step back. When she looked
Thank you everyone for being patient with me these last few months. Now that I have finished this book, I will focus on finishing my other books as quickly as possible that way I can get to work on the last book in the Trilogy. I hope to get it started by august, which will be exactly a year since I started this series. I am so grateful for all of you that have stuck by me and been supportive as I started my writing career. I will begin the third book as quickly as I can, but I will be focusing on one book at a time from here on out so that you don't have to wait endlessly for me to update each book. Please be sure to keep an eye out for the third book that will begin after I finish my other book, Alpha Ryker. The title of the third book in the Trilogy is... Moon Princess's Two Alpha Kings I hope you will all join me in the near future as I share how Kyra, Caleb, and Hunter will overcome the next part of their journey.
Artemis-I was livid, beyond anything I have ever felt before. That bitch thinks she could talk to me like that and get away with it? What was worse was my father was here and grilling me about what I was doing.It wasn’t like he had any proof, since he had found me in my room, that I stayed in when I was back home with him. I had sent another attack on the bitch and her pack before I left, thinking they would be able to handle them. Now I learn they not only failed but my father’s men had killed them all off.I shouldn’t have sent them all, because now I won’t be able to create more of them. The only one I had to blame was the fucking Moon Princess. I guess me whispering sweet promises into others' ears all these years have been for nothing. I should have just killed her when she was a baby.Then none of this would have happened. First, I let a worthless Alpha think I would grant him anything he would ever desire by killing her. Then I had had to resort to dealing with the disgusting
Kyra- We arrived at my mother’s house and the first thing I did was look for Max. At least here I knew we were safe. It wasn’t like Artemis could reach us here, at least I didn’t think so. “Mommy!” Max’s voice rang out as he came running down the stairs. A rush of joy filled me at seeing his little body running toward me. Even in just a brief time, he has become very dear to me, like I have known him his entire life. The best thing was that he acted as if I had been his mother since day one as well. Before Max had a chance to place his little feet on the bottom step, I scooped him into my arms and held him close. My tears came in an instant, and this time I didn’t mind. I was beyond happy to see him and know he was safe. “Hey, my little guy.” I whispered as I buried my face into the crook of his neck. “Are we going home now?” He asked, his voice filled with so much excitement that it made my chest hurt. Allowing the hug to linger just a moment longer, I lowered myself to the flo
Kyra-I was glad we talked, although I knew there was still much to figure out. Hunter was practically a stranger to me now. In theory, he was the same man I fell in love with, but he was different as well.Looking at the two men in front of me, I couldn’t believe my life has come to this. All I wanted to do was hold them close to me always. I still couldn’t wrap my head around Hunter being back just yet either.“Get outside now!” I heard my brother Zac yell urgently from the front door.Not wasting any time, I jumped from the couch just as Hunter and Caleb stood up. Together we ran outside to see what was going on. Just as our feet hit the ground in front of the house, I was thrown forward by a blast that knocked me yards away, flat on my face.My ears started ringing and my head was spinning. I heard a faint yelling coming from somewhere, but I couldn’t make it out over the ringing that was going on in my head. Having been thrown forward onto my stomach, I turned to my side to place
Kyra- Once inside, Caleb, Hunter, and I all sat around the living room. We all kept our distance from one another, which had been my idea so it would allow me to not be distracted by either of them. They both seemed inclined to wait for me to speak, which meant we were currently sitting here in silence. I knew we needed to talk, but I suddenly had no idea what to say. Or rather I didn’t know where to start. It isn’t like it has been very long since Hunter died, so one might think it would be easy to just jump right in. The issue now was the fact he didn’t remember anything about our life together. I needed to figure out how to handle this. It was clear that Caleb was letting me call the shots where Hunter was concerned, yet I didn’t know what to do. “I guess the first thing we need to discuss is what happened. At least what you remember. It would be helpful to know what you know and don’t know.” I spoke after a long drawn out silence. “I have told you some already, but I suppose
Kyra- “This isn’t over.” Artemis’s eyes narrowed on me as if I had suddenly become her enemy. In a way, I guess it wasn’t anything sudden, since it sounds as if she has been gunning for my family for a while now. The only difference now is that I knew about it and I wasn’t going to let her get away with it. I didn’t care how much more powerful she was than I was. Thanks to Darius, I now had full range of my powers, which meant I wasn’t going to back down without giving her everything I had. I knew by the laws of the Gods I couldn’t do much to her, but at the same time, I didn’t care. She came after the ones I loved dearly, and I will be damned if I let her get away with it. If a fight is what she wanted, she would get just that. It seemed as if she was worried about attacking me directly, since she thought it was a good idea to use my first mate to get to Caleb and my mother. It made sense because of the fact that if she was involved directly it would go against the laws set by th
Kyra- It didn’t take long for my father to return, when he did, he looked grim. I was just about to say something to him, but he put his hand up to stop me. His eyes moved between me, Hunter, and Caleb before he returned his attention to me. “What I am about to tell you, you will probably hate me for. Before I begin, I need you to understand it was never my intention to hurt you or anyone. When I had done what I did, I had done so out of anger. When it was no longer an issue though, I had thought nothing of it and completely forgot what I had done.” Zeke spoke, his words giving me this sense that I wasn’t going to like what he had to say. “I am sorry for interrupting, but I should probably add that I did know…” Caleb’s words were cut off when my father interrupted him. “No, what I have to say is not your fault at all. I had asked you to keep it between us because I didn’t want to upset her.” Zeke paused as he took a deep breath and then redirected back to me. “I have been tryin
Kyra-I wished Darius was staying, but I understood his desire not to get mixed up in this war more than he has already been. It would have been nice to get to know him some more though. There was one thing I was completely sure about though, with Hunter, we would stand together and face this new threat, just as Caleb said.“Very well, but I do hope you are making the right choice. When the time is right, I will return to get to know you.” Darius spoke, his eyes harboring a bit of regret. He then turned to Zac and a wide smile appeared on his face. “It is good to see you brother, it has been a long time.”“Yes, it has.” Zac returned his smile and then moved to stand directly in front of Darius. “If I had known…” His voice trailed off as he looked down at the ground.“Don’t think another minute of it.” Darius shook his head and pulled Zac into a brotherly hug. “It probably would have happened to one of us eventually. Artemis will stop at nothing to get to our mother.”“You could have r
Caleb-I wasn’t completely shocked by Hunter being alive, but I was surprised when he showed up. I still remember when Zeke had told me what he had done. I didn’t think it had been possible for Hunter to return like this, yet I couldn’t deny that I was glad he was back.I fully admit that this had put a kink in things, especially where Kyra was concerned. Things were complicated right now, but I would do anything to make her happy. Currently that was keeping this weird-ass creature away from Hunter.As I watched Kyra help Hunter, I felt mixed emotions. The one thing that stood out above all else, was that I was happy to see them like this. With him not remembering this it was different, but the look on Kyra’s face made me feel as if she was now whole.It was like until Hunter arrived, she had been broken inside. I couldn’t wait for this mess to be over with so we could discuss what to do next. First, we needed to do something with these disgusting creatures.“Now, tell me what is goin
