Kane was exhausted. For the last three days, he had stayed by his mate’s side. She had yet to open her eyes. She was still in wolf form. Doc wants to let the two wolves awake and shift on their own. He thinks it will be easier for them and, while in wolf form, they heal quicker. Nathan and Mark had scoured the library at Snow Moon to find out anything they could about the white wolf. Mostly it is just speculation, as the white wolf was supposedly distinct centuries ago. From what they had been able to find out, the white wolf is a mystical wolf that only appears when they are needed. Their powers are many, and it is said that the white wolf has the power to wipeout realms with the blink of an eye. Even the gods bow down to them.Swiping his hands across his face, Kane thought, “And I am mated to one.” The wolves were beautiful. As far as Kane could tell, they were pure white, under all that blood and dirt, neither of them had a hint of any other color on them. Except for their size, t
Mark was stunned to find his mate. Selene never said a word to him. He knew they weren’t mates, but they were very close these days. He thought she would have said something. He stared at those ice-blue eyes his mate possessed and wanted to just hold her close. She smelled heavenly. Like a peach orchard mixed with some pineapple trees. She sat on the bed staring back at him.Mark sat on the side of the bed and introduced himself, “Hi mate. My name is Alpha Mark Robins of the Moon Touched pack.”Tilting her head to the side, Talon giggled, “Look Amara, my mate talks. Does yours?”Amara laughed at her sister’s words before answering, “I don’t know. He just sits there staring at me with those purple eyes like I have two heads.”“Maybe you should introduce yourself and shake his hand,” Talon suggested.Sticking her right hand out, Amara quietly said, “I am Amara Nisga’a of the White Wolf clan. I am from Alaska.”Kane stood looking at her hand and move towards the head of the bed. Leaning
Lucifer sat with Katia in the tree house as she practiced shimmering from one corner of the room to another. She was getting good at it, and they were hoping that eventually she could shimmer herself home. Obviously, the island was under some sort of power that hid it, but the woman is a god and should be able to do the same things Uranus does. Lucifer was hoping she just needed to learn what she could do and practice.“Lu my own angel, what happened to change your mind about all of this?” Katia asked him, suddenly plopping down next to him. Giggling at Lucifer’s wince hearing her nickname for him.“I am no longer an angel, Katia. But to answer your question, I am smarter than a lot give me credit for. I watch, pay attention, and learn from what I can put together. Someone is pulling strings in this little game of revenge. I just cannot figure out if it is Uranus or Cronos. Both are using their time with you to gauge whose side you will be on.” Lucifer offered to her.Katia smiled bri
Talon and Amara were settling into their new pack and home happily. Once they were released from the hospital, they found themselves marked and their mate bonds sealed that same night. Their men had waited long enough. They gathered. The Moon Touched pack and Snow Moon pack were so intertwined that they could not figure out why they did not just become one pack. Neither pack did anything without the other. Even the Alphas conferred and were seen together daily. The pack members enjoyed working together and the gathering they had for dinner. Both packs ate most meals together outside. The weather did not matter. If it rains or snows, a tent is erected. The Alphas were working on plans to build a dining area big enough for everyone and the ongoing bonfire.Amara stared in wonderment at some of the other species taken in by the Moon Touched pack. There was a mother dragon and her babe, faerie folk young and old, demon shifters that were not accepted where they came from, any kind of anim
After Kelp mind linked his mate and filled her in on what was going on, Dalia barged into Mark’s office, coming to a halt in front of her brother. He looks down at her with that don’t give me crap look he has. Putting her hands on her hips, she cocks her right hip out a bit, looking Nathan up and down with disgust on her face. “I do not know what the hell is wrong with you brother, but I am ashamed of you. Mama and dad would be too if they were here.”Nathan growls at his sister with contempt, causing Kelp to step to her side. Kane is now holding Kelp still and linking him to let this play out. Kelp looked at his sweet mate who was obviously headed to training according to the sports bra, leggings and pulled up hair. Kelp swallows, feeling his nether regions harden as he takes in Dalia's beautiful body and all. Right now, the anger she is showing makes her gorgeous. His mate's voice brings him back from where his thoughts wanted to take him, and Kelp begins to worry a little bit at th
Alpha Lorn is helping his mother plant lilies of every shade known. They were his sister’s favorite flower. Since they built the special spot for his mom to sit and visit with her only daughter, she has seemed to improve some. His sister’s final resting place is next to the duck pond. She loved the ducks and her favorite thing to do was chase them when they were growing up. They had brought her body home and buried her. From there, mom and dad commission a sculptor from the human city to make a canopied bed from stone. On the bed was a likeness of his sister in sleep. Lorn believed it gave his mom comfort to think his sister was sleeping forever, like that Disney movie, instead of dead.“She would love this, Lorn.” His mom's lips quivered as she made the comment. Instances like this reminded him that his mother understood her daughter was gone forever. With watery eyes and a hoarseness to her voice she continued, “Thank you for killing that disgusting man. I hope he is rotting in some
Talon was sitting on her and Mark’s bed when her sister came running in from the adjacent room and jumped on the bed with her. The two girls spent almost every waking moment when their mates were busy with one another. They enjoyed the freedom allowed to them here. They did not have to worry about being locked up and hidden. The twin moon goddesses had kept their word and made a haven for them. But not just them for others who were mistreated or wanted for nefarious use of their abilities.Talon watched her sister bubble over with happiness, and she would never be able to thank anyone that helped them enough. Luckily, the previous Alpha did not physically abuse them, but he did deny them sunshine, and they only had each other’s companionship. When they angered him, he would tell them how ugly they were and how no one wanted them. That was the reason their clan was decimated years ago.Amara was giggling as she told Talon about her and Kane’s mating, “I almost died when he licked me li
No one noticed Cronos when he shimmered into the corner of the hospital room. He could not believe who was sitting on that bed holding her mother against her. The only human he truly loved and could not be with. His son was lying on the bed with an IV in his arm. Approaching the bed he stammered, “What happened? What are you doing here? When did you leave the safety of the fortress?” He said to the white-haired girl.Jumping up and letting her sister move into her place, the white-haired girl put the older woman’s head on the other’s shoulder and ran to Cronos. She threw herself into his arms and cried, “He is going to be okay; we were attacked by rogues when we were almost here. The warrior Eric and some others helped us. He then escorted us to safety.”Cronos held the girl and was stroking her hair, “Why did you leave? Why didn’t you call for me?”“We had to. It is time Cronos, and you know what that means. Katia has called us all to the Moon Touched pack. She created the pack for t
The next morning, the women were in the kitchen cooking breakfast as the men were outside working with the warriors. Katai and Selene had an eternal blush on their faces, and Talon could not help but tease them. "Found out what all that sticky goodness could be used for other than a sweet dessert for the children, did you? I expect every couple involved in that ice cream fight had the best sex of their life last night. I know I did." Talon laughed at the look of embarrassment on her fellow Luna's faces. She loved watching the goddesses learn to live like normal wolves, but she had many questions about how they performed their goddess duties.Selene was the first to respond to Talon's gentle teasing, "I didn't know that a tongue could do the things Lorn did last night." a shiver went down her spine at the thought of a particular spot Lorn's tongue kept hitting last night. She heard him in her head, "Behave Luna. If you keep thinking like that, I will have to leave practice wi
Katia did not decide until Nathan gently pushed her down on the bed that she was ready to begin their physical relationship again. She was still frightened that she would never be as normal as the rest of Nathan's family and friends. This thought worried her constantly that he would regret having her as his mate. Selene could have matched him with someone who had not been broken so often. She couldn't help herself, though when he had undressed her and slid his tongue along her slit, she had desperately wanted to feel everything she knew he could make her feel.Nathan stopped his feasting on her plump peach, as he called it, and looked up at her with worry, "If you can worry about me not wanting you in the future, then I am not doing something right in the here, and now, little one." He nipped the top of her mound lightly, and she jerked while letting out a barely audible moan. "That's more like it," he mumbled from between her legs. The man must have felt her slight giggle be
Katia sat watching those she cared about, laughing about the tag game this morning. She had listened as their mates accused them of interfering and as they continued to throw shade at them every chance they could. They simply could not believe that the luna's remained innocent and had not helped in any way. She saw her sister walking to the ice cream table to her left. Katia did not know that Selene liked ice cream so much. This would be her third helping. She was about to ask her sister to bring her some chocolate ice cream with chocolate fudge and whipped cream when she realized her sister was not helping herself with more of the dessert.Selene stood with a bucket of vanilla ice cream directly behind her mate. She asked him sweetly, "Why do you believe we interfered again, mate?"Lorn did not bother to turn around when he replied, "Sweetheart, it is okay; we are not mad. We knew that as a woman, your heart would not allow you not to interfere and help the children cheat."Selene's
The alphas, lunas, their close friends, and family remained at the firepit. They say around the table, talking into the night about ideas for the elite werewolf force they wanted to create to focus on rescuing trafficked and kidnapped victims. They are different ways. They wanted to move the race forward but held onto their beliefs and ways. All of them agreed it still was not the time to come forth and let the human world know that supernatural beings existed. The humans could not help it, but they just would not handle that kind of information well. Some humans would have no problems with the supernaturals, but as with any race, they are those who would do evil terrible things to those they did not understand. So, the supernatural world could help the human world while trying to protect and keep its own. They could do the same for humans when needed.Zeus and Hera had excused themselves, saying they were needed in their realm. However, they met Gaia in the forest and listened to the
Once again everyone was seated around the huge tables that surrounded the fire pit. It was something that had become part of the daily meals; very seldom did they eat inside. If the weather was bad, then the portable walls were erected so they could still all eat together. Wolves from three different packs have begun blending themselves together into one gigantic pack, and they did not realize what they were doing. Working together and being there for one another was part of pack life. It was as natural as breathing, and the packs were only as strong as the weakest member. So they all band together to make each member of the pack strong. The eyes staring and watching them from the forest were in awe of the two halves of the moon and what they were accomplishing without realization.Hades watched as his heir sat amongst the wolves, gods, and other supes like the prince he was. He did not understand his son's unwavering love for the two moon halves but had learned not to question it. Th
When the game started, the women laughed so hard that they were afraid their pack mates would think they lost their minds. When the smaller ones discovered that they really could disappear and reappear they were blinking like crazy. Children were disappearing and reappearing everywhere. Eventually, the older children got, the younger ones under control, and the game really got going. The look on the men's faces was priceless each time a kid disappeared on them and then reappeared elsewhere. Katia could not stop laughing over the look on Nathan's face each time it happened to him. Once he saw where the children reappeared he would look to see what she was doing. Of course, she was sitting innocently watching the game. When she saw him looking over at her she would sweetly wave to him and go back to speaking with Rhea or Amara. She was helping to hold the little ones that were not old enough to play but their parents were volunteering. A bathroom break had just been called because some
The children had gathered at the center clearing in the middle of the forest, they were full of energy and excitement after the big breakfast of pancakes, bacon, sausage, cereal, orange juice, and as much syrup as they wanted. The smaller children were paired with an older child to ensure no one got lost or wandered too close to the waterfall and lake.One of the little boys standing with Leo chattered as fast as he could: "I would have liked to have seen the alphas' faces when they discovered they had mud and worms for breakfast." The others giggled in agreement: "I bet they are pukin' their brains out." another child mocked throwing up and falling to the ground.Selene widened her eyes and mouthed, "Pukin' their brains out?"Dalia rolled her eyes, answering the goddess, "They're kids; just roll with it.""Roll with it?" Selene repeated. "What am I rolling with?"Dalia laughed, "It means just agee with whatever they say. Kids make believe things that make sense to them but not us. If
Selene smiled admiringly at the new mark on her neck. She was inspecting it while looking in her mirror; as she turned her head slightly, she noticed the moon with a wolf resembling Lorn's looking lovingly up at it. They were surrounded by stars. If she remembers correctly, her mark was very similar to her sisters. Katia's had a wolf resembling Nathan's staring lovingly at the moon while snow fell around them. Lorn had been so gentle and loving when she admitted to him that she wanted to seal their bond. She blushed thinking about the things they did last night. She had no idea that it could be so wonderful or that it would feel so good. The memory of Lorn's hands stroking and rubbing between her legs before his tongue went there had her shivering and she noticed a wetness between her legs. Lorn came into the bathroom and pulled her against his chest. Leaning down into her neck, he took in her scent and spoke gently in her ear, "I can smell your desire, my tantalizing mate."Blushing
Nathan lay next to Katia, watching her sleep and thinking about the last week. She had not come back from near death the same. She and Selene had come back less emotionally damaged. They still had physical and emotional trauma, but it was different. Katia no longer acted like a spoiled child testing her new boundaries. Nathan did not know how to explain it except to describe it as a puzzle piece was shoved in the wrong place and someone had removed it, putting it where it belonged. Shaking his head, Nathan grimaced at himself; he was no doctor or anything; he was just another male wolf trying to figure out how not to ruin this new start with his mate. He had noticed that Lucifer did not come out of the incident the same way. Something had happened with the three souls intertwined during that time. Nathan still had no hard feelings for Lucifer, he loved both girls equally and would do anything for them. He and Lucifer had nothing but time while Lucifer held on to their souls, and Nathn
