~Avery~“How can you say that?” I was yelling, unable to hide the rage that was stirring within me.“You’re not the victim, you’re the one that they have been bending over backward to protect. Did they go about it the right way? Maybe not. But Alex is heartbroken, thinking he’s lost you forever and blaming both himself and his brother for it. Natasha and James are guilt-ridden, the Alpha is failing in his duties and has been for quite some time because his main focus has been you. You’re not the victim. They have set aside any and all other obligations to try and help you reach your fullest potential so that the day that hundreds of people come to kill you, you will be able to defend yourself. The pack members are suffering from a lack of leadership, but you haven’t seen that. You’ve seen their smiles, and the happiness they display, but you haven’t seen the anxiety that befalls them once the door is closed and they are with their loved ones. You have seen what they wanted you to see

“I know of a book that might have some information about your mate bond and how it works, it’s at the library back home. Once this is over, I will go and get it and see what I can find.” Natasha said and my eyes lit up. A book that might give us the answers we need.“Go back and be with Avery but don’t tell her about the book, I don’t want her to worry about this too.”“Excuse me?” I yelled.“You son of a bitch!” I continued, wishing she could see and hear me right now.“Though she’s a daughter of one, not a son,” Crow said, looking absolutely serious. I stared at Crow in disbelief but scoffed and shook my head.“How much are they hiding from me?” I asked him.“They’re not hiding anything, they’re withholding information. There’s a difference.” Crow said. I turned around and faced him. A look of disbelief was plastered on my face, whatever he said seemed to leave me in the same state. “Are you serious?” I asked him and he nodded his head. I had no words…“But if this was a memory,

~Avery~”I don’t get it. So whoever this person is, has hands-on experience with vampires. But she or he could see their end? How can anyone for-see the future?” I asked in shock as I read over the words one more time. Lydia was weirdly quiet, she looked to be thinking about something, trying to make sense of this but there was more behind her eyes. She was shaking her head and her lips were moving silently. ”Lydia?””I have no idea, let’s continue reading,” she said and flipped the page. This one had the crown symbol on the bottom left corner.”The embodiment of regal poise. The queen to rule over endless pain who shall meet her faith in the hands of trust. For no one creature is truly immortal, a balance must be made, a life for another or two on the hands of each other a balance will be restored, peace will be set free again.””Are they talking about-””Raven,” Lydia answered.No one is immortal, everyone can be killed.But killed in the hands of trust, two killed by each other.

~Amber~”A girl who will protect her family, and those she loves, from harm. She will reach her full potential, she will fight, and she will win,” she said with a sad smile. ”Avery…” I said quietly. I wanted her to stop talking. I didn't like where this was going. ”A girl who's mate was never meant for her. Their forever had already been decided to not last very long. A love that been bound and sealed, a love that will fade with time unless they pay what they owe.””Your marriage…” I breathed out. ”A girl who will win a war, beloved by her family and her mate,” ”Please stop,” I said. ”About a girl who is not meant to survive the war she wins. For she must fall for the others to live,” Avery whispered.”Why?” I asked her. I felt how angry I was getting and I needed to control myself. ”I was never meant to live a long life, Amber. I was born with a purpose, I was born to kill the queen and give my life to make sure that those I love are safe. I am meant to kill Raven,” she said.

~Avery~”It’s in my blood. My great-grandmother could foresee the future and different events that would occur, my mother could too. This ability goes back centuries and generations. My grandmother would tell me stories about our family, many of the women were burned or tossed in the lake with bound hands and legs because they were thought to be witches. One of my relatives, she had foreseen an attack on the village where she lived and she tried to tell the elders, those who were in charge but they saw her premonition as nothing but witchcraft and sentenced her to death.” I couldn't believe what I was hearing. Could Jaspers ancestors have been the ones who wrote the book?”How do your family know all of this?” I asked him. ”A lot of them wrote things down in books so that their premonitions would live on even after they were dead. It was almost compulsive, whatever they saw or heard they had to write down so the information wouldn't get lost. And the woman who tried to save her vill

~Avery~Jasper had gone off to practice. I was still in the library, I was stroking my arm with my hand as I replayed our conversation in my head. The women in Jasper's family had all been given the gift of premonitions. Both a gift and a curse I guess you could say. His mother had died, but maybe his sister could help me. Me and Jasper had planned to meet up, after his practice, out by the garden. There was a gazebo out by the lake where we could sit in private without prying eyes and ears. He asked me if the Alpha wouldn't mind us being alone together and I told him that he had nothing to worry about because he didn’t. James had no right to be possessive anymore, he had given up that right many choices ago. I knew that the risks were there, but I wouldn't let James hurt him, I finally felt like I had a chance to get a hang of everything. There was a way for me to be with James, feel the mate bond, and live a life that didn't have to end at the hands of this war and Raven got to

~Avery~James turned around and in an instant, he was in front of me, his hands cupped my face and he slammed his lips down on mine. The passion, the strength, the dominance, it was all clear in that one kiss. He pulled back slightly and rested his forehead against mine. ”Things are changing, everything is different, I know you feel it too. I will fix this, Avery, you have my word. It will be you and I, whatever I have to do to make it so, I will,” He said in a beautiful promise and placed a kiss on my forehead before he left. Alex stayed behind, he raised his head slightly and looked at me. There was something he wanted to say, be it an apology or something else, I didn't feel like hearing it. We were all dealing with our own problems, in our own ways. The problem was that all our problems included each other but we closed off and I didn't think it was going to change anytime soon. James thought he could find the truth in that book but he couldn’t, I knew he couldn’t. But the mo

~Avery~We sat there and talked and laughed for about an hour. Jasper had a great sense of humor, it was mixed with modesty and sarcasm that was right at home for me. We understood each other. ”You need to stop acting like your life depends on you sticking around here,” I said and bit down on an apple slice. ”Whatever you say, Luna, oh wait-” He said and look incredulously up at the roof. I turned my head and scowled at him. ”Ha-ha, very funny,” ”It wouldn't be if it wasn't true,” He said and leaned back against the couch with a cocky grin on his face. ”You’re comfortable, might need to change that,” I said with a scowl. Jasper laughed, it was a carefree laugh, one that made your heart flutter in happiness. I couldn't help the smile that twitched on my face, my lips were tugging up and Jaspers company was one I didn't know I needed. He was easy, carefree, funny, and had no drama. It was refreshing.The smile quickly vanished when a pain in my abdomen struck me hard and the stabb

When Amber and James returned, we met them downstairs. Amber looked in awe as Malia walked toward her. Alex and his mate came down the stairs, he was holding Isabella and all three of them looked amazing.Alex had taken his role of uncle as an absolute. There wasn't a day that had gone by without him holding her or making sure that she was alright. No one else had been able to hold her, nobody outside the family, he and James were very alike in that aspect. Very protective.”You look beautiful,” Amber said breathlessly as she wrapped her arms around Malia.I bit my bottom lip and hooked my arm with James’s.We walked to the clearing where Lisa, Jackson, Trisha, Raven, Lucas Lydia, and Micheal were waiting. Amber wiped away a tear as she saw what we had done.”Oh wow,” Amber said.”It looks amazing,” James whispered in my ear. Malia guided Amber onto the cliff and grabbed her hands. ”There is nothing I can say that will ever measure up to how I feel about you, but I promise to show

1 week later. A week had gone by since the war, Amber had adjusted quite well to the life of a vampire. The one thing that had been the hardest and continued to be was the fact that Stella was gone. Amber told me how she sometimes tries to communicate with her wolf but then remembers that she’s alone, there's no one in her mind anymore. I know the feeling, I had only had Xena for a few months and had gotten so used to having her there, the biggest difference was however the fact that I got my wolf back, Amber wasn't going to get Stella back. She had nailed almost every vampire ’super power’ there was, including speed, coercion, healing, and strength.Amber was now the one teaching Lucas, who wasn't as thrilled that the student had become the teacher but he seemed happy nevertheless with the bond he had created with Amber. Damien, my brother, had grown close to Alex, the two were running together, playing pool, and whatnot. Alex and his mate seemed inseparable and the big red bite

”I killed my mother, not because of what she had done to me but because I knew what she would do to you. You’re my family, this, these people, you’re all my family. When he hurt you on the field, he sentenced you to death and I couldn’t…I couldn't let you die, so instead, you were turned. We can't be without you, Amber, nobody here can. Your brothers-” She said and Amber's eyes shakily found her brothers. ”-They need you, you three are what’s left of your family and they wouldn't survive without you. Nobody would. Maybe turning you was selfish, because we wanted you to live, but letting you die wasn't an option.” Malia said sternly and let go of Amber's hand. ”So, this will take time and it will be painful and hard but we will get through this. We will help you, Raven will help you adjust to this new life but in the meantime, nobody is going anywhere. We are all here with you,” Raven cleared her throat. ”I actually have to go back, I do have my own responsibilities in my clan,” she

Raven squatted down next to Amber and cleared away her hair from her neck. She lowered her head, her fangs extended, and just as she was about to bite into Amber's neck, her eyes rose and she looked up at James through her lashes. She then punctured Amber's skin, sinking her fangs into her flesh and releasing the poison.When Raven pulled back, we were all standing and watching them. ”Now what?” I asked when she stood again. ”Now we wait for her to die.” Raven said and wiped her mouth with her thumb then sucked the blood off it. I winced and Lydia hulked.”What? I'm a vampire, remember,” she said and rolled her eyes. Raven didn't feed on humans, only blood bags so this must’ve been euphoric for her. I walked to the pool table and placed my hands on the surface, leaning back against it. I wasn't going anywhere, not until we found out how Amber would be.She'd wake up, but as a vampire, everything would be different. Werewolves are taught to hate vampires. Always have been, and pro

Natasha came running into the pack house, William was close behind her but he walked as though we had all the time in the world. Lydia came as well and seeing her was such a relief but we didn't have the time to relish in it for too long. William nodded his head towards me. ”Her.” He said and all eyes turned on me. ”Her what?” I asked him. ”You can help her.””Help Amber? How? I don't even know what’s wrong with her,” I felt helpless, I had become dependent on my magic but I didn't have that anymore. What did I have to could help Amber?’Me’Xena’You have me, Avery. I'm back now and we will learn to work together again’I’m sorry… I forgot’It’s alright, I've been gone for a while’ the sadness clenched my heart. I had forgotten that she was back but to be fair, she had been gone for a long time. ’Not on purpose’ Xena growled.I keep forgetting that you can hear my thoughts. It’s creepy ’Just place your hands on either side of her head’ Xena said as she rolled her eyes. I look

We were heading home to the pack house, I was holding our child and James was walking beside me. It didn't feel real, I didn't know when reality would hit and this would feel normal, perhaps it never would but nevertheless, we had created a life. As we walked into the house it was quiet except for some hushed whispers. We walked into the common area and saw everyone in our family sitting around, waiting.Amber was the first one to come up, she covered her mouth with her hands and looked down on the baby. ”Oh my goddess, you made this,” She said in awe. I laughed and James smiled. Amber held her in her arms and Alex came up to meet his niece.”What’s her name?” He asked. I looked at James.”Isabella-” I said. ”Isabella Lilly Knight.” Alex and Amber both looked at us. Amber gazed at her brother, wiping away a tear.”Your sister and our mother.” She said and nodded her head before watching Isabella again. ”It’s perfect,” she said. ”We never truly met, I'm Chelsea,” It was Alex’s

I didn’t look at James, I already knew the death glare he was throwing Williams way and I didn't want him to see the fear in my eyes. I kept my gaze locked on William, he wasn't bothered by James in the slightest. Both me and James knew that this had to be done, there was no other way and if going through this pain was what I had to do to save my baby girl, then I would and I knew that deep down James did too. I heard a low growl, one that turned all heads to the Alpha. ”It’s okay, James, you know it is,” I said quietly and looked at him. His jaw was clenched and his eyes were hooded but a slight nod, one so small that I would've missed it if I hadn't looked carefully, said everything I needed to know. ”Let’s do this,” I said and looked at William.His gruff expression didn't change, his head was still lowered, his eyes looking up at me through his lashes and his long hair fluttered in the breeze.William closed his eyes, he inhaled, his chest rising and his head lifted.He opened

I felt the power surge through me, having to push away the thought of what the magic was feeding off. ”I’m so sorry,” I whispered to my baby. I felt my hands heating up, reaching my fingertips and I placed them over his heart. The darkness was consuming, it embodied me and I allowed it, allowed it to take whatever it wanted as long as it brought me back my brother. ”Look,” Amber whispered through her tears to Raven. My eyes were closed but I felt it, I felt his pain, his life, his threads of existence and I healed it. I heard a breath and felt his heart beginning to beat slowly, his blood circling, and then I opened my eyes. Alex was watching me with hooded eyes, his shaking hand came up and his fingers wrapped around my hands, squeezing them tightly.I cried even harder. ”You promised you wouldn't leave me again,” I cried and saw how the tears fell from his eyes.Alex's lip tugged upwards but he didn't have the energy to fully smile. I saw in his eyes how happy he was to be al

I drew the fire and had it circling us all, the flames were cutting into thin air and moving vigorously around the enemies. With one hand I raised a shield over Amber and Malia and urged Alex to get himself and his mate behind it. But he was hurt, Alex was still bleeding and his face had turned pale and his lips were blue. Raven saw what I tried to do and with her speed, she grabbed Alex and placed him by his sister and then his mate. I held up the shield but Nicholas looked awfully cocky. Something I didn't like. ”You think you’re the only witch around here?” He asked and brought forward a man, long white hair, obsidian eyes, and an altogether dark expression.He raised his hands, circling them before pushing them up against the sky. The flames were uncontrolled, they were slashing at everything, including my own people. One of the flames cut through the shield and I heard Alex scream. It had hit his mate, her face was burnt.I circled my hands again, regaining control but only f
