Jenny's POV"How can they be powerful elements when you can't hold them?" I asked.Amber rolled her eyes at my question."Water can erode away the earth, can give life to the weak and can nurture growth. The wind can move or destroy objects. Never underestimate them.""These elements are delicate but the most powerful and... they are always bestowed on women."The last part Lily and Amber said at the same time.Emily and I looked at each other and chuckled."I'm sorry to interrupt, but why are they only bestowed on women?" Emily asked in a quiet tone."They are the most delicate of elements and require patience that we all know men do not have.""Amen to that!" I shouted, causing everyone to laugh, including myself."Let's get this training underway. Amber, shall we start with air?""That's fine with me," Amber sat cross-legged in front of us.you can feel it or not, there is always wind or air around us. The air could be still, but you know that it's there. We can manipulate the air
Danika POV"You are both so stubborn and hard-headed. Typical men," I ranted. It was so hard to teach them anything to do with their powers."Let me try," Rose said, gently touching my arm to calm me down."Gentlemen, may I have your attention please." There was something in her voice that commanded attention though she spoke softly.The two men turned to face her."Now, you need to understand that getting through this training is a must for what is yet to come. There is no way you will be able to survive it without your powers. If you can not control your powers, many more lives will be lost, including those of your mate and pup." They sat bolt upright and looked at each other in shock."Um...we are sorry for not taking the training seriously but..." the king started to say."Which of our mates is carrying a pup?"Oh shit! He didn't know. I dragged my hand over my face and stood next to Rose."May I call you Huw, or do you have a title that you would prefer me to use?" I asked."Huw
Huw's POVThere's no way Emily is able to do all this after one session of training," I exclaimed. "No offense or anything Em.""None taken,” she smiled back at me. She looked so innocent. I really don't think she has it in her to fight in this battle. Now Jenny, on the other hand, has a warrior buried within her and I know she would be able to do some damage. After all, she is my mate and I will make sure she trains. "She's a natural. What more can I say?" Nadia smiled. It wasn't a normal smile, it really freaked me out."How about a mini battle?" Jenny suggested. Of course, she did, I thought as I rolled my eyes. "Boys verses girls." Oh boy, she was determined."The rules will be simple," Lily stood in the middle of us as Danika created a circle around us. She caught me watching and winked, flashing me a mischievous smile. That woman frightened me a little."Danika has spelled a fighting circle so that magic is contained. It will be a friendly battle. Opponents are to submit. No k
Huw's POV"I'm so sorry, man," Tyler said as he tried to comfort me. How did I not pick up on her scent changing or her body changes? I feel so useless right now. What could've caused the loss of our princess? Could it have been prevented? Did she do it on purpose?Questions, questions, so many questions."She's through there," I pointed to a blue door across the hallway. The room that Jenny was in so that Emily could go and see her. As soon as I saw the door close, I turned to Tyler. "It's all my fault. All the sex, the training, the ceremony prep. Stressing out about the research...""Breathe, Huw. It is not your fault. Didn't your grandma tell you that this would happen?"Thinking about the night, she appeared in my room and said that she would offer congrats."She knew. My grandma knew but couldn't tell us.""Nadia and Lily said that they couldn't say anything as this had to happen so that Jenny could release her powers needed for the battle. There will be more celebrations afte
Emily's POVI just couldn't settle. I could feel her anguish and I knew that she was blaming herself for the unfortunate miscarriage.After they left the hospital, I called her parents. I didn't even ask if she wanted them here, but I needed to try and help her in whatever way I could.Hearing her thank me via the mind link made me relax, but I still couldn't fall asleep. Prim was on edge too and wouldn't stop pacing around my mind. Tyler was literally sleeping like a baby.Questions and emotions clouded my mind. I needed to get out of my room so that I didn't disturb Tyler. I walked to the kitchen and made myself some tea. Grabbing a blanket, I made my way to the outdoor lounge area and lit the fire pit. Sipping my tea, I got lost in the flames dancing in front of me."Emily!" Tyler shouted. "OMG! What the fuck were you thinking? Are you alright my love?" Panic radiated off of him as he checked me over for injuries.I snapped out of my daze, blinking quickly a few times and that was
Tyler's POVI am sitting in my study when my Beta knocks on the door before entering. Beta Justin Oliver, hand picked by myself during training. He was loyal to a T but also knew how to have a laugh. He was very good at reading people. I feel that he could be an Alpha and will make him one in the future, but he doesn't know that yet."Your majesty, you have guests." He opened the doors to let in the leaders of the other packs and clans."We have received word that the battle will take place in 3 days," Vlad announced."We are ready to fight, are you?" The Lycan's were always big-headed when it came to war."I am always ready and so is my queen. The coronation is tomorrow at noon. I am so glad you will be in attendance. Beta Oliver will show you where you will be staying unless you have arranged alternative accommodation."Three days. Three fucking days. I don't know if we are strong enough. Sure, the witches have helped a lot with the training, but you always have that self-doubt. Wit
Huw's POVI have never, in all my years as a royal warrior, have I ever seen the place so busy. Dressmakers, caterers, visitors from neighbouring packs and clans."Whoa!" I exhaled a longer than intended breath. "Jen, how's Em feeling?" I shouted back to her."She's on edge, worried something is going to go wrong and there's nothing I can do to convince her that it will go swimmingly today." She sounded defeated."Don't worry about it babe. I've got this." Walking towards the palace, I opened the mind link to everyone I could. "Can all clan and pack head warriors meet me on the palace driveway. I have something to discuss with you." I immediately closed the link but not before I felt the confusion as to how I managed to do that without being a member of theirs, as well as not being of a high rank.I headed through the forest heading towards the palace with Jen holding my hand. Hmmm, I never knew I could feel like this. If I had, I would've gone looking for my mate sooner.Jenny giggle
Tyler's POV"Hey man, are you up?" Huw linked me."Yeah, couldn't sleep. Coffee's ready," before I could finish, Huw walked into the kitchen. We grabbed our coffee and walked into the dining room where the omegas were setting out breakfast. Neither of us felt like eating."I don't know about you Ty, but I don't have much of an appetite today.""Me neither." We both sat there nursing our cups. Not eating is a rare thing for werewolves. We are usually ravenous 24/7 due to the number of calories we burn off during training etc."Good morning," the girls sang as they walked in with their beverages of choice."Would you look at those," Jenny pointed at the pastries. Emily already had her plate stacked with pancakes in front of her. It was twice the size of what she normally would eat. The amount of food they demolished between them was enough for the 4 of us, but yet my stomach rolled at the smell of the food today."How can you be so calm?" Huw asked what I was thinking. I'm sure he has
Tyler's POV"Welcome. How are you both?" Huw and Jenny looked really awkward. "I sure hope nothing's wrong. My nerves are still shot from the last time you looked like this and then the fight.""Let's just go and wait for Emily before we say what we need to," Jenny suggested."Sounds good to me," Huw piped up.We all walked in silence to the dining room. 'Something is going on here. Huw and Jenny seem distant and closed off. How is this conversation going to affect Emily and our news tonight?' I was now panicking until I felt a warm embrace before she even reached me. I'm not going to lie; it helped me relax."Hi guys, how are you? Is everything OK? You don't look so good. Come, sit and have some juice.""Thank you, Em. Um...actually, we have something we need to talk to you about," Jenny started."Sure," Emily said as she poured drinks for everyone."I...I don't know how to say it. Maybe it would be easier to show you?""Whatever makes you more comfortable." I watched as Jenny place
Emily's POVIt's been almost a month since Nate declared war because his mate, my grandma, chose not to be with him because of the monster that he was. Power and greed can change a person and not always in a good way.I am currently standing in front of the bedroom mirror trying to think of different ways that I can reveal my news to Tyler. How was I going to tell Jenny after what she had been through? I feel really selfish right now."Showtime," I said to my reflection as I left the room. I made my way downstairs in search of my husband."Ty, hunny. Where are you?""In the study babe.""Are you busy?""Just general duties. You're more than welcome to come and make my day better."I could feel the smile in his voice which made me smile. I walked to the study with the small envelope in my hand. I hope this is a good surprise for him, I thought, as the anxiety started to kick in. I reached for the door handle and pushed open the door. "Hey babe, you got a sec? I have something I need to
Emily's POVEveryone charged towards the intruders."Keep in groups. They are created this way for a reason. If you go off alone, you will be singled out." I mind linked our fighters."Yes, your majesty," chorused back. Good. At least I know they're listening. Tyler and Huw raced ahead with the others."Give her to me boy and no harm will come to you. I will even give you a consolation prize in return," he painted over to Natalie."Why would I want something like that when I already have the perfect woman for me?" Tyler's words made a smile creep slowly over my face. Listening to their exchange, I hadn't noticed that I was now standing alone with the fighting taking place around me."Feel their energy, their pain. Talk to them," a voice whispered to me in the wind."Why are you doing this? What has gone wrong in your pack for you to turn your back on it?"“We don't like the prophecy or its ending.""For years, silver wolves would dream of being mated to a gold wolf.""Yes, all that po
