The vision changed again, now she was watching the three wolves that had gone the other way, they had spread out and were slowly stalking towards the cabin watching every move they made carefully, stepping in areas with less leaf coverage, finally they reached their destination and stood watching the cabin from a distance. Thomas must have linked them about the silver nets. They were looking around them as if waiting for something else to happen. Alys noticed that they turned their attention briefly to the cabin and she could see in the distance that Aiden, Mike, and Jax were approaching. Ready yourself. The visions cleared and she opened her eyes just in time to hear the locks click on the door. She closed her eyes again and tried to steady her breath, gathering her courage, she clutched her hand around the hilt under the blankets, getting a better grip on her knife and slowly slipped it closer to her.“Oh my sweet Aly.” Cody tsked, “Your Alpha is a very stubborn man, he just does n
They had almost reached the cabin when they got a link from Thomas. ‘Heather is down, she got caught in a silver net I had to get her out.’ Thomas sounded conflicted. He knew he had to be there for the luna but he couldn’t leave Heather there in pain. ‘Take her back to the SUV’s, tend to her wounds as best you can with the med kit in the back. We will get the Luna back.’ Aiden told him. They weren’t mates but Aiden knew there was something going on between them. ‘Everyone else move on with extreme caution, Heather’s been caught in a silver net. She’s down and going back to the SUV.’ He linked the others. “Heather, got trapped.” Was all he said to Mike and Killian. Mike nodded in understanding and looked around him. Jax was shaking his head in anger. Aiden just added it to the growing list of Cody’s crimes. He would take him down, he made sure they all knew that Cody was his as soon as Alys was free. They finally reached the cabin and they stopped as the front door burst open so
Jax sped all the way home. It was the longest drive of Aiden’s life. Sara was texting Dr. Clarke and having them get the pack hospital ready for all three of their wounded. “How did you guys miss those traps?” Jax asked Sara after a while of driving. “We went in knowing he would have them set up.” Sara rolled her eyes at him and finished her text before answering. “He had trip wires, and holes in the ground, and bear traps all over those woods. I am honestly surprised we didn’t trip more of them off. The guy was a complete psycho, it was like a bad horror movie out there.” She complained and Jax scoffed. “I am serious, the one bear trap he had in the middle of a bush and it was streaked with silver. What I want to know is how long it actually took him to set them all up and how the hell he did it without burning himself.” “Well if you saw all the others then you should have seen those.” Jax scolded, Sara flipped him off. “I’d have liked to see you do better.” She retorted back. “
Alys was back in the blackness again. This time it felt different though. Like she was floating through space. She could feel her body, but she couldn’t move it. She didn’t feel the pain anymore. Did I die? She thought to herself, she probably should have been more worried about that but she felt so peaceful. ‘No, you did not die.’ she heard the whispered voice say to her. ‘Who are you? Are you my wolf?’ She didn’t think they could talk to them, but then again she didn’t know everything about wolves. ‘No I am not your wolf. You will shift soon little one, the ability to talk to your wolves has been lost to time.’ The whisper said to her, she thought she heard a light laugh. ‘I am the moon Goddess Selene.’ ‘The moon Goddess? You mean gods and goddesses are real?’ Alys remembered studying ancient history and mythology in school, but she thought it was all just ancient stories. ‘Yes, but in a guardian way more than an ultimate being way. We live in a separate world and can watch
Alys was released to go home in the morning, after Dr. Clarke came in and did a final assessment. She got smaller bandages over her chest and was able to have no more bandages on the back of her head. Dr. Clarke told her she had to come back to get the stitches removed soon though. Aiden happily helped her get dressed into yoga pants and a big oversized sweater, picked out by Jax apparently. Thomas was waiting out front with an SUV to bring them back to the pack house. Even though it was only up the street Aiden didn’t want her walking that far right away. “I feel so silly. We will be in the car for not even 3 minutes Aiden. I could have walked. Its not that far to the pack house.” Alys complained as she climbed in with him in the back seat. “It’s long enough of a walk that I feel better if you have a ride. It’s either this or I carry you the entire way.” He winked at her blush and she rolled her eyes, Thomas closed the door for her and got in the front seat. Her flowers, balloons a
The next morning Aiden woke up after the best sleep he had had in a while. He finally got to mark his Luna, he could finally feel her, she was there forever in the back of his mind. His wolf felt stronger already, he felt stronger, more energized and ready for anything that life might throw at him. The little ball of fire next to him looked beautiful as she laid there. She must have been exhausted, she didn’t usually sleep in later then him. He couldn’t help but run his fingers across the mate mark on her shoulder smiling softly, he slowly ran his fingers down and trailed them across the thin silver scars on her chest. He had never seen someone heal like that. He’d heard about it during his wolf history lessons as a young pup, but that was way back when the first werewolves were made by the moon goddess. Has the goddess blessed his mate with an ancient wolf? He remembered Alys telling him that the goddess had been speaking with her. He felt a shudder run through him. To have a mate to
The next morning after two showers, since the first one just made them messier, they decided to have breakfast with the pack. Alys had to go see Dr. Clarke at the pack hospital anyways for her check up. Aiden told Alys that he had to do some pack stuff and would be in his office most of the afternoon, but he insisted on bringing her to her appointment so they set it up for right after breakfast. Alys was almost attacked by Sara when she walked into the dinning room with Aiden. “Oh!! You marked each other! I’m so excited! Does this mean that the Luna ceremony is going on as originally planned? I mean we only missed a few days right?” Sara excitedly asked. Alys and Aiden exchanged a look. ‘What ever you want to do my love the choice is yours.’ Alys heard Aiden tell her through the link. She couldn’t help but beam up at him before turning back to look at Sara. “Well if the invites have already been sent, why waste stationary?” Alys joked and Sara jumped in excitement. “Well then we
They ended up at a very expensive large boutique shop that sold all manner of dresses for every event out there. Again Alys wondered what a place like this was doing in a small city like Wakerton. Inside they were greeted pleasantly by a pretty young lady and Alys noticed for the first time she could smell someone, she could even tell that she was a wolf. The lady smiled broadly and welcomed them into the store and led them to an extravagant seating area with big comfy white couches surrounding a very modern glass coffee table and brought them all sparkling wine and glasses. The store was elegant it was all white and had big floor to ceiling sections of mirror perfectly placed for both lighting and decor. She brought Alys to the display room to go through a few styles and colours so she could pull some selections. Alys told her she wanted simple and elegant and if possible silver or soft purples. The lady, she introduced herself as Samantha, winked and told her to wait in a very large
