“It’s happening! He is gone!” Althea cried out to her sister, Sabrina.
“What do you mean?” Sabrina asked, slightly confused. She was standing over her crystal, looking at her creations.
“Adron! He has left and went to his own plane!” Althea was hysterically crying. She knew what this meant. Adron was their brother. Sabrina was the Moon Goddess and had created what she called humans. Althea loved the creation so she added her own love into it. She called herself, Mother Nature. Together they made a world with love, greenery and every color you could imagine.
Adron was an evil soul that sought out destruction and violence. He created a world that embodied evil. It was filled with fire, dragons and pitch black creatures that lived in the shadows. They would creep out and grab your ankle, pulling the unwilling to the underworld.
Sabrina and Althea were scared this might happen. Together, they discussed a plan. Sabrina would create a new race within the humans. She called them werewolves. Overall, they embodied strength and courage. Althea knew they needed more skill on their side so she created witches. They would understand how Mother Nature works and used herbs and spices to create potions that would be key in the destruction of Adron.
Lastly, the sisters agreed they needed more still. Sabrina took some of her beloved humans and created vampires. They would embody the essence of speed, stealth and wit. What they didn’t plan for was how the three supernatural species did not get along. Instead of coming together, they retreated to their own parts of the world, away from eachother.
For years, the sisters watched as the shadows would steal the souls of the unwilling before their time. What was the final straw was when Althea saw a new creature, walking on her own grass. It was a mixture of the vampires and wolves. They called themself vamolves.
“He did it! Adron finally figured out how to use our own creations against us!” Sabrina said as she pulled up an image of one.
“Now he is completely gone and is in his own underworld, we cannot get to him!” Althea cried out. The worry was evident on her beautiful porcelain face. Her silky white wavy hair was being blown behind her as she kept pacing around the room. Sabrina was almost her twin but she had green eyes compared to Althea’s sky blue ones.
“The only way to stop Adron is to bring all three species together.” Sabrina was deep in thought.
“But how?”
“If only we could go there ourselves…” Sabrina was speaking more to herself than to Althea.
“What if we can?” Althea stopped pacing. She looked at Sabrina with a wild expression that Sabrina didn’t think she would like to hear the rest. “We create one more. We combine ourselves and create someone who would be able to defy all odds and bring them together, as one, as we intended?”
“Even if we can create that, will it work?” Sabina asked, hopeful.
“I honestly don’t know but we have to try. We cannot let Adron take over our creations. He cannot win!” Althea slammed her fist down on the table. The crystal ball shook and in return, an earthquake rattled across the world.
“CAREFUL! Don’t create unnecessary issues right now!” Sabrina scolded as she watched everything settle down in the ball.
“We have to try. We have to create a child. One that has the best of us in her and give her a mate that is equally strong in nature. Together, they will have to set on a mission to take down Adron.”
“We cannot tell her about this until she is of age and the time is right! As she grows, the world will shape her and she will have to learn the truth at the right time other wise this could be a disaster.” Sabrina was coming around to the idea. She understood emotions and has watched how her everyone is shaped from their surroundings.
“If you insist.” Althea walked to her shelf of potions. Shifting threw them, she found what she was looking for in the way back. It was a small vile of purple liquid. “We each need to drink this.” Uncorking the top, Althea brought it to her lips and drank half before passing it to Sabrina. Swallowing the rest, they each began to cramp. Bending over in agony, a white light erupted from their chest. It caused them to call down backwards as it shined so bright that they were blinded. The pain was excruciating and lasted a few minutes before slowly fading away.
The soft cries of a baby girl was invading their ears, bringing them back to the present. Althea turned her head to the left and saw a little girl, wrapped in a silk white blanket. It had a white dove stitched on the corner. The baby had one green eye and one blue eye. White peach fuss topped the baby’s head on her porcelain skin. She was the perfect combination of Sabrina and Althea.
“She is beautiful!” Sabrina sat up and pulled the baby to her.
“What do we call her?” Althea asked. She too, sat up and scooted closer to Sabrina to look at the baby.
“Ivory. It means pure white.”
“Pure white. As in all things pure and good. I like it.” Althea said.
“Here, take her. I need to adjust her mate.” Sabrina handed Althea Ivory and limped over to the crystal ball.
“Hmm, you will be perfect.” Sabrina mumbled to herself. Althea watched as she rested her finger on the crystal ball as she chanted a song. Finally, she said, “You will call him Jet.” Only when she was finished, did Althea speak.
“Jet?”
“As in Jet black. Pitch black. Like good and evil. All things need a balance. Ivory is everything pure and good. Jet is her balance. He is not evil but he will shape Ivory into doing what needs to be done. He will help guide her into doing what is right. Sometimes, what is right is not always what is easy and good.”
“Alright little one, time for you to meet your adoptive parents.” Althea cooed the baby as Ivory reached up and grabbed Althea’s face.
“I know the perfect people. Let’s leave her right there.” Sabrina pointed the a spot in the middle of the forest. It was thick in vines and wildlife but the sisters knew they would flock to her regardless. They will protect her since she is a part of their creator.
“Give her powers too. Give her the ability to adapt the world.” Sabina asked of Althea.
“I will give you my powers as Mother Nature. You will be able to control the elements my love.” Althea placed a soft kiss on Ivory’s forehead. A white ball of light escaped Althea’s lips and into Ivory’s.
“Now she is ready.” Sabrina said as she held Ivory over the crystal ball. She fastened a necklace she just made from nothingness and put it around her neck. It was a simple dove with the her name etched on the wing.
“Be safe little one. We will always be watching.” Althea cried right as Ivory was sucked into the crystal ball.
The sister’s quickly watched as Ivory erupted from the earth and on to a patch of leafy green vines. She didn’t cry or even utter a word as a group of bunnies hopped to her. They curled around her as she slept, waiting to be found.
“Good Morning!” I heard my bedroom door open and people walk in. Oh my! It is my 18th birthday! Opening my eyes, I sat straight up to see my parents standing over my bed with a present in their hand.“Wake up, sleepy head!” “I’m awake!” I yawned as I smiled at them. They came around and sat down on the edge of the bed. Today was going to be a long one, best one yet of all the birthdays that I have had. “Happy birthday!” My mom gave me a kiss on the forehead as my dad smiled at me. They weren’t my biological parents. They adopted me after they found me in the woods, but they raised me as their daughter and loved me as such. “Here, open your present!” My mother, Gwen, handed me a bag that said ‘Happy Birthday’ with every color on it with yellow tissue paper sticking out of the top. Ripping that off, I found a small black velvet box. Picking it up, setting the bag down and opening the black box to reveal a pair of pearl earrings. “These are beautiful!”“I’m glad you like them, sweety.
Turning, I saw this man. He had white hair with brown, almost black eyes. He towered over my 5’8 inch frame, but was slender. He was dressed in all black suit with a black tie and shoes. His clean-shaven face was staring daggers at me, but he was still smiling.“Hello.” I said to be polite, but I was screaming on the inside for help. “My name is Adron. I assume you are Ms. Ivory?” “Yes. May I ask where you live at?” I was very much on guard talking to him. Glancing around, I tried to catch anyone’s eye. He smiled and let out a chuckle. “Far, far away from here. I have been waiting a long time to meet you and since you are 18, my chance has finally arrived.” “What do you mean by that? Waiting to meet me?” He was older, like my dad’s age, so what did he want with me?“I must confess, I am your only blood uncle.” Adron dropped the bomb on me like it was just a normal conversation. I sucked in a deep breath and took a step back. His white hair, his face and body style… is this true? I
I knew that voice and my eyes started to tear up as I turned to look at him in the face. He was staring at me like I was the most beautiful human in the whole world, but he was waiting for my reaction. “Mate” I whispered. My hand came up and touched the side of his face. What felt like forever. He finally lowered his face and pressed his lips against mine. The kiss was the most magical thing I have ever experienced. His arms were wrapped around me, keeping my body pressed against his. He finally ended the kiss, but kept his forehead to mine. “I have searched for you for so long. After our first meeting, I just knew that you were mine, mine to keep forever.” His voice was like music to my ears. “*Cough, Cough*” came from beside us. I turned to see my dad looking at us. “Dad, you know Alpha Jet, he is my mate!” I said as Alpha Jet moved me beside him as he kept his hand around my waist but was much more proper and respectful. “Good Evening again, Alpha Nathaniel. It is true that
The blackness turned to white and then to green. Grass erupted from nothingness like what you would see in the movie. An extremely large fountain materialized. It was a small pool with a dove standing in the middle, with water spraying into the air. The sky was light blue with small white clouds sprinkled through it. A warm, gentle breeze grabbed the base of my dress and exposed my legs. Walking to the fountain and sitting down on the edge, I just stared at the water. It wasn’t until I realized what I was seeing that made me gasp and jump up. Holy crap! Getting on my knees on the grass, I leaned over the edge and got as close to the water as I possibly could. I saw people walking down the street, cars driving and animals playing. It was like I was watching a movie through water. No way was this possible! Taking my hand, I went to dip it into the water. “I wouldn’t do that if I were you.” A soft voice startled me. Spinning around, I was greeted by the most beautiful women I have ev
I instantly felt defensive. “I dunno, just the first thing that I found. Feel free to change the channel. I rarely watch as much T.V. as it is.” “Oh? Why’s that?” Jet asked, he seemed seriously interested. “I’m usually outside or working.” I shrugged. I let myself relax into him. It felt natural and I fit perfectly into him. My pale skin glowed in the moonlight that was shining in from the open windows. It wasn’t a sexual tension but a comfortable atmosphere. A safe place. “You don’t get sunburned with your porcelain skin?” “Never. I guess it makes sense now why that is…” I trailed off, not sure what to say. I felt his concern go through me. “What are you concerned about?” I asked, without looking at him. “If you are okay.” He said quickly. I didn’t get any hint of a lie from him. Usually I can tell when someone is lying easily, and he wasn’t lying. “I will be. I… I just…” “Talk to me.” Jet said. He pushed the mute button and turned me so I was on my back. Adjusting the p
The next morning, I woke up to an empty bed. My eyes focused on the cold black silk sheet that was proof that he indeed was not beside me, but the dull ache between my legs and on my neck told me last night wasn’t a dream. That didn’t stop me from being pissed he wasn’t there. Throwing the covers off me, started stomping towards the door to go back to my room. It was only when my hand grasped the cold black metal door knob that I realized I was butt-ass naked. Shit! Looking around, I found his suitcase and the white button-up shirt he had worn last night. Thankfully, he is taller than me because the shirt came down to the top of my knees. Buttoning it up, I walked out of his room and went straight to mine. Never in my 18 years of life did I ever think I would do the walk of shame in my own fucking house at who the fuck knows what time it is. There wasn’t a single soul who met me, so it must still be early. The sun was peaking out over the trees and the birds had started chirruping.
“What’s wrong?” Jet asked. He was sitting across from me. His head was resting in his hand with his ankle back over his leg. He liked to sit like that I noticed. “Everything is so… impersonal here. No conversations, no one dared to speak, basically.” I said bluntly. “That is how I run things. I am fair, but no emotions. You can’t run a pack with your heart, you have to use your brain.” My jaw dropped at this. “Excuse me? You expect me, the daughter of the Moon Goddess and Mother Nature, to assist you in running our pack and NOT use my heart?” His heart did a flip when I said our pack. “Coming to terms with it, I see.” “You can’t expect me to sit quietly behind you and just look the part. I will not change who I am because you don’t like to use your heart.” “Rule number one, NEVER disagree with me in public. You can express your concerns in private. If you have ideas on things, you may bring them up to me in private and we can discuss things. I am not saying I will change ho
The plane landed on what looked like a private runway. No other planes were around, and the surrounding landscape was farming. Countless people were moving back and forth as they worked on their land or on the tractors. “We grow our own food and also distribute it. It is a large source of income for the pack. I, personally, have invested and own a few companies, but as a pack, we thrive off of those fields.” We walked to some golf carts looking things and got in. Jet was driving us as everyone else followed us. A winding road took us through some trees and up a narrow path. The forest was absolutely beautiful here. Life was everywhere I looked. The thick green forest floor with the blooming brush barely made the rabbits and squirrels visible. A deer started running beside us. It was a doe with two small fawns with spots still. They followed us for a good mile before they stopped at a stream for a drink. A large metal gate appeared before us. It looked like something out of the mo
Thank you all for reading Opal Eyed Luna! This has been a story that has sat in my mind for a year that I just needed to get out. However, as I wrote it, the story took a turn that I had not expected and it ended up being much longer than anticipated. Since I have read and recieved so much feedback about legnths of books, I have decided to make this part one with a possible part 2 if you readers enjoyed it! I am working on two others right now but I don't feel like I am ready to not see where Ivory and Jet go with her new job title! If you would like to see a book two, please let me know! I love hearing all your thoughts! As always, I do read each and every one of them. As much as I try to like or reply to them all, I have a toddler that I am trying to potty train so it is a little crazy in my house hold! My new book out is called Diamond Eyed Luna. That might be the last in this series, depending if I write a book 2 on this one. It is currently available and I will be posting regu
“We are here to serve you.” Their voice was like ice water running down my veins. “Why can’t Jet see you?” “We could allow him to if you wish?” “Yes.” “Holy moth-” Jet took a step back and wrapped his arm around me. “He is very much your boss as I am.” I said, wanting them to listen to him too. “Understood.” It was weird talking to them. “What is your role? What do you do?” I asked, trying to understand. “We are your servants. When someone needs to pass through, you signal us and we take them there. We are also your protectors. If danger is near, we will tell you.” “That is how Adron was able to always be a step head of us.” I said to Jet in the mind-link. “One of many ways.” Jet replied. “Can you take me to the underworld?” “Sure, if you wish.” One of them said. “However, you may not get to come back.” Another one said. “Why?” Jet asked. You could almost feel them shift their eyes to him. “You are still human. Portal is a one way unless you are a god. Since you are
There appeared to be a clear understanding from Spencer and Jameson. Calvin needed to go. His attitude was not that of a gamma, but of a cocky little shit. One second they were all looking at each other and the next, Calvin realised what was happening. “Whoa! Guys! Come on!” Calvin tried to plead his case as both men jumped him. Jameson took high as Spencer took low. Calvin surprised me with how much of a fight he put up. He managed to knee Spencer in the ribs and land a single punch to Jameson before he was officially knocked out. Once he was removed, it was just Spencer and Jameson. I was on the edge of my eat, trying to see who was winning. Jet was feeling rather anxious himself, which didn’t help mine. These men had trained together. Jameson had trained Spencer, so it was coach verse student. Spencer tried a submission move that Jameson counteracted. Jameson would go to deliver a combination, and Spencer would avoid it expertly. For five whole minutes, not a single blow was l
“Come on, it wasn’t that bad!” Jet was on the other side of my locked bathroom door. Humiliation and embarrassment filled me as I stripped naked and turned the shower on. I had fallen asleep before Jet was back. So, I was trying to make it up to him this morning, but the sexy lingerie I was trying to put on was not baby bell proof. It stuck out like a busted can of biscuits and even ripped the material. The worst part, Jet had walked into the closet to see where I had went and found me in front of the mirror. I was about to pull the one piece down but my stomach ripped a hole, my ass was eating the underwear and there wasn’t enough fabric to cover my nipple. It looked absolutely horrifying. To top it off, I was out of breath from trying to get into it. Jet’s eyes widened as he tried to hide a smile. So, naturally, I am hiding in the bathroom. It was easy to rip it off as my stomach had already started it. Dying of embarrassment was a true statement that never hit me so hard before.
“That was an exhausting day.” My ass was sore from riding Colt all day. It normally wouldn’t be but with this extra weight on my stomach, my posture was off. “Watching the obstacle course twelve times isss… rough. I got my twelve miles in today.” Wade sat down in the chair. Jet was wearing only was wearing his shorts. With his bare chest, it was hard to focus. These pregnancy hormones are no joke. Plus, it has been forever since we had sex. “Focus, afterwards we can do whatever you want.” Jet teased me in my mind. “ANYWAY.” I said, a little too loud. Jet smirked, and Wade looked slightly confused before choosing to ignore us. “Let’s just start at the top. Carol.” “She made quite a few mistakes.” Wade frowned as Jet pulled up the video of her running. “What is the scoring? Like five points per task?” I asked. “That would make 20 points total so that is good.” Jet said. “To start, she immediately stepped on a mine and got herself killed. She didn’t even look around to make s
Jet and I were angry as we exited our room. Not at each other, but the situation we were put in. I thought everything was behind us. We thought we could have a normal quiet life now with our pack and our child. Nope. Now we have to deal with this. What kind of toll is this going to take on me? On our child? “Whoa, that is some major aggression you both have today.” Susan said as we turned the corner into the foyer. Brent, Susan and Wade were waiting for us. I was a little surprised to see Susan. Ever since Megan was killed, she hasn’t come around much if it wasn’t about the baby. “Let’s get this over with.” Jet said as he kept walking past his family and towards the golf carts. Everyone had a surprised looks on their face as they watched him go and then turned and gave me a questioning look. “Later.” I said and followed him out, too. I couldn’t walk as fast, but I was happy to see Jet was waiting by the side of the cart to help me in. No one spoke as we made our awkward golf cart r
“Alright, we have our rankings!” Jet said as he held up his paper. “What are they?” I asked. Jet had kept the names to himself and just wrote the score down by the person. “There are a few ties, but here it is.” He laid it out in front of us. My eyes instantly went to find Jameson. He scored a 25 out of 30. A huge relief washing through me as I kept looking down the line. 19… 22…13… 26 wait? What? It was Carol. She scored one higher than Jameson on the critical thinking test. On the bottom of the paper, there was a list of each name from top ranking to bottom. Carol- 26Jameson-25Spencer-22Leroy- 22Peter- 21Calvin- 21Mark- 19Ethan-19Tyler- 19Anthony- 17Beau-15Dalton-13 “Interesting.” Wade said as he studied it. “Oh, this isn’t good for me.” Sitting down, the panic feeling started creeping back up. “Don’t worry. Jameson excels at obstacle courses. Actually, Leroy might give him a run for his money tomorrow. Even give Carol a heart attack.” Jet said as he grabbed a th
“Are we ready to go?” I was pacing in our office as Jet was finishing up each item on the critical thinking test. It had been a full week and I haven’t done anything but sit around and wait. Wait to go into labor, wait for Jameson to heal and even just wait for this tournament. There were a total of a dozen names on the paper. One female and the rest were males. “I’m finishing it now.” Jet said, slightly annoyed, but his patience was endless with me recently. I knew I was being a handful, but it was hard to relax. Susan had managed to get all the laundry done and put away, but there hadn’t been any progress in making a nursery. So I am worried about the nursery and worried about this tournament. I might have a heart attack before this is over. “You need to breathe.” Wade was sitting on the couch, watching me with a smile on his face. The fact that he found this funny was frustrating. “I’ll… I’ll… I’ll set you on fire!” I finally spit out at him. “We could put that in the obstacl
My feet were never so thankful to be wearing something so comfortable. I couldn’t imagine wearing heels or flats even. Not that I was full on waddling like Justina, but I could tell I was starting to get a sway. Jet gave me his arm to use as we made our way to the field. Brent and Wade had not shown up yet but I knew they weren’t that far behind. All the seats were filled. As we made our way to the front, I noticed everyone had mixed emotions about today. The thing is, I couldn’t tell if it was anger at me or anger at Jameson. There were some people crying, and some even looked happy. Happy his spot was open or happy because they didn’t like him? I couldn’t tell. “So many different emotions.” I commented in the mind-link. We had found our seats and sat down. Jameson and Samantha were standing ten feet from each other, with a baggy t-shirt. Samantha looked both scared and pissed off. Jameson just looked ashamed. “They hadn’t heard the full story, but rumors get spread. From what I
