“We have heard all day of the varying attacks that seem to be testing our border protection as individual packs and as a kingdom. As we have gathered information, the attacks seem to be similar enough that we should assume it is from the same group. We do not have any confirmation that it is Rogues
When our third meeting was over we had some time to kill before dinner and then the ball, which seemed to be all the women talked about. Luna Anne was not wrong, the females are only here to be paraded around like prizes for the choosing. I can’t imagine wanting to be with anyone other than my Godde
“Wait? Mates? As in more than one? How do you know there is more than one?” They both smile at me. “My mom has a direct link to the Moon Goddess and when I passed my twenty second birthday with no sign or hint of a mate she reached out to make sure there was nothing else we could or should be doing
“You really don’t do any of the girly things do you? I thought maybe you were just being shy.” She calls back through the door. “Nope, this is nothing I have ever experienced before. My nanny wasn’t allowed to give me anything that might make me spoiled or ungrateful. And I’ve really only felt comf
I was able to eat a snack before she finished with my make-up, thank the Goddess. Then we each slipped into our dresses and I never felt more exposed and covered up at the same time. There was nothing hanging out or scandalous about my dress, but every cut and seam accentuated my fifteen year old bo
“Skylar, you know them. Don’t pretend like they don’t have a very large and unnecessary protective streak when it comes to you. They will come in the middle of the night, Sam will hold me down while your brother and Oliver break my hands and arms for touching you and Dakota will break my jaw and kno
I just nod and he pulls me in for a hug. He has left me speechless more times than I can count today. He gives me a light kiss right on the top of my head and I smile, he is so like my big brother and I love it. The King and Queen make it to us and we are all lined up in front of the doors to the b
“Okay.” I smile at him “I can’t wait to meet everyone I haven’t yet.” I pull back speaking at a more standard level. “You said there are a few really important people I haven’t had the pleasure.” He smiles back and catches on to what I'm doing. We can’t look like we are just being secretive, no ma
Thank you all so much for reading my story and sticking with me for the long haul. This book was over a year and a half in the making and all the support and comments have truly been inspiring. I appreciate you all more than you know. I am a new writer and learning as I go and you have all shown
Epilogue 85 years later.“There’s no way you’re going to make that happen.” Silas is challenging Mack to a timed speed race. “What’s going on here?” Cam slades up behind me, wrapping me in his arms.“The boys just heard about the challenges we used to do and that I beat all of you guys at one ti
Epilogue 7“You couldn’t just ask one of our warriors for a meeting? You had to interrupt our family dat and demand we see you here.” Oliver comes up next to me.“Seriously? There’s no way any of you would have seen me, and you never would have let her talk to me. If she was my mate, I wouldn’t l
Epilogue 6I was kept in the hospital for a full week after I woke up. Sierra’s parents took all kinds of samples for testing and actually packed a bunch up from me and the girls to take back to their lab to see if they can find a pattern or a way to help our family in the future. Elena and Gentry
Epilogue 5“Yep. On it.” Dakota blurts, momentarily disturbing the tiny girl in his arms. He recovers quickly whispering to her, holding her close to his face and smiling like an idiot, but she loves it smiling at the sound of his voice, or maybe his familiar scent. I'm not sure what they can sens
“I think you’ll find giving us three pups will wear you out a bit.” Oliver says sitting next to me gently tilting his pile of blankets.The tiniest most precious face I have ever seen peeks out. She’s barely the size of his forearm, but looks completely at home snuggled into him. I look at Oliver’s
Epilogue 4“No! Stop that thought right there. Once we start that, I get nothing done the rest of the day.” I put my finger up in his face then move past him to wash my hands, which is another amazing feat since I have to stand sideways. He just laughs behind me. They used to try to hide when th
Epilogue 3“What do we do? What can we do to make this better for you?” Cam climbs behind me, resting against the wall of pillows behind us and pulling me back between his legs. Oliver’s head drops to the bed unceremoniously.“Not okay man.” He half grumbles, half laughs, then crawls towards me t
“We’ll talk more about this tomorrow.” She turns to run at Sam, I’m sure crying again. This hormone sh*t is no joke.Before I can even think about her fast retreat, I am scooped up and carried away. Oliver’s honey scent doesn’t surprise me as I bury my face in his neck to calm my nerves. We obvi
