Elena POV

The King walked on to a large wooden stage that overlooked a round field outlined with shops. The stage held large chairs to represent thrones for the King and Queen with several seats on both sides for Alpha Owen's and Alpha Damien's families.

It was built over a hundred years ago from my great great grandfather to hold announcements and ceremonies, like the one we were celebrating today. Overtime, it became the stage for the royal families.

Beyond the stage was modernized with stores and small eateries, surrounding a park like setting that had a large covered dancing floor in the center. Luna Theresa had the whole area in fairy lights with red and white roses.

The band stopped playing music as the King approached the center stage. "Welcome pack and allies to a grand event in honor of your future Queen and King. Today, my daughter turns 18 and I'm certain she will find her mate, whether it be fated or chosen."

My hands balled into tight fist, claws piercing my palms at m

    Ryker POVI peeled my eyes away from Elena and Tyler before I started killing every wolf in this place from her words. I was trying to save her, but she was too far gone. Too weak to stand on her own, needing a weak Alpha to make her feel relevant.Everyone carried on the next few hours with pleasantries. They all swooned over Elena and Tyler, already congratulating their union even though she had not chosen him yet. A few men dare to ask for a dance, which I knew Tyler wanted to refuse, but she reminded him that she was here to find her fated mate. In a few hours if her fated didn't show then she would chose him. Every time she reassured Tyler of that, I felt a blood vessel pop in my head. She was a stupid girl walking into her own death.Chris was at the bar, whispering in a tall blonde's ear as her hand rubbed dangerously close to his core with Damien laughing by his side. Normally I would question how close they seemed, but I had enough to worry about. "Double," I ordered from

    Serenity POVI was in knots all day feeling Elena's anxiety for what was to happen tonight at the ceremony. I did love the princess like my sister, but I hated being constantly tied to her emotions. I was linked to Elena at birth, both by the moon goddess, Selena, and the goddess of witches, Hecate. I was to be her protector, but I didn't know much more than that. All I knew is that my mom, a witch, was killed only days before giving birth. The moon goddess granted me life only if my father agreed I was bonded to the future Queen of Wolves. My duty in life has always been to serve and protect.My father stayed in contact through magic, but offered little information to me. What he wanted me to understand the most was that I could not speak this secret to any, not even Elena. This was the only secret I ever kept from my best friend.It was unfair that I was born only to serve, but if my father didn't agree, then I would had not been born at all. Even if I wanted to leave to live my ow

    Nate POVAfter Elena came forth to her awakening I watched her dance with Tyler already sensing the tension. He was not her mate which made me let out a deep sigh. I no longer wanted her for myself, but Tyler was not right for her. I would still protect my Queen in anyway I had to. I stole a dance with her and we made each other laugh, remembering how close we truly are. I forgot how easy it was to be myself with Elena or how she felt like my home. It had been hours since I touched my mate's skin and I was now burning for her. I was with Damien and Chris knocking back a few beers at the bar, getting annoyed at all the girls constantly swarming us. Chris and Damien were fighting the attention of a tall blond she-wolf who was looking to satisfy her needs and I took it as my cue to duck out. "I'll catch up with you later. Don't have too much fun without me." I hugged my brother and shot Chris a look bye then walked out.The second my foot stepped into the bordering woods of our packs

    Elena POVI screamed for Nate as he threw himself through the window, but I knew he was gone. He was searching for something or someone. I knew he wouldn't stop until he found it.Serenity came to my side with her arms crossed, demanding an explanation. I only returned her glare with a look of disgust. I had no one. "Serenity Everwood you have lied and betrayed me my whole life. You are not a wolf, but a witch hiding among us. Your deceit should be punished by death, but I will give you one chance to remove yourself from my territory and never return.""Elena, are you fucking kidding me? I'm your best friend. You know me better than anyone. Besides, you are not the Luna, you can't banish me." She scoffed annoyed at me. I moved slowly towards a woman I thought I once knew. Now I saw nothing but betrayal. The same betrayal everyone I knew has given me; lies, deception, and fake loyalty. I ran my fingers across her chin, adoring how I once looked to her as the only person I could conf

    Damien POVI jumped from the window landing on my feet next to Chris. He was already sitting up and popped his shoulder back in place. "That fucking demon runt! I don't care if he is your brother I'm going to fucking gut his ass."I frantically searched his body for wounds and sighed in relief when I found none. "Thank the goddess."Chris gave me a puzzled look. "What is the deal with you? Stop touching me!" He said, swatting my hands away."I thought he killed you. I swear he lost his mind.""What the hell was he going on about anyways?" Chris asked brushing glass off his shirt. I open our mind-link praying he would answer. 'Nate, what is happening? Are you ok?''I'm going to kill them all. They took her. They took my mate.''You're what? Nate, both Ryker and Chris have been here all night. I don't think they took whoever you're looking for. Just come down here and we can find her together.''Fuck! Where is she?' Nate growled then cut off the link. A second later Chris and I shot ou

  • Queen of Wolves   Defeated

    Elena POVMy eyes shifted from silver to lavender to blue, staring at Ryker leaning against my door frame. I didn't have the energy to deal with him again. My head leaned to the window and tears slowly ran down my cheeks.Ryker clenched his jaw so tightly his molars would crack in half as he watched me.He slowly walked in my room, then lowered himself on the window seat by my feet. He watched every muscle in my body, careful he wasn't about to make me dive into a violent attack from him being so close to my body. He knew I was pissed and that he wasn’t someone I wanted by my side. He also knew I was falling a part.When I didn't move or protest, he grabbed my thighs and pulled me slightly forwards so I moved away from the wall. My swollen red eyes shot to his, unsure what he was doing. He looked back at me with a look of pure defeat. We stared at each other a moment in silence, then he moved behind me and pulled my back into his arms. "I'm so sorry, Elena." He whispered, then kissed

  • Queen of Wolves   Inside Out

    Nate POVI woke in the middle of the night on a pile of leaves in the woods. My body burned for my mate, fearing this is what it felt like when you lost one. I searched my brain for anything to help me find her, or at least who took her. Then I remembered Tyler's pack's dungeons, I hadn't searched there. I jump to my feet, shifting into my wolf, running at full speed to Tyler's territory.I reached the prison and the guards waved me in. I was in charge of all the pack's prisons so it was not unusual for me to be here. I made it down to the cells and the guards tried assisting in whatever I needed, but I just needed her."Did any guards bring in a female prisoner anytime yesterday to now?" I asked the three guards stationed at the tower."Not that I know of, but doctors are constantly in and out of here so who knows. I started my shift about three hours ago.""What do you mean doctors are constantly in and out of here?""Uh... just like I said. A bunch of prissy snobs come prancing in

  • Queen of Wolves   Follow My Heart

    Elena POVI woke to the smell of sandalwood and fresh rain and knew he was still by my side. My head rubbed into his chest working it's way to the croak of his neck. Even though it was a common way wolves showed affection, I rarely felt the desire to express myself to someone that way. No one except Serenity ever nuzzled me either. Well no one except Serenity until I met Ryker that is.His fingers gently traced the curves of my body. We felt the completeness we gave one another in each other's arms. "Good morning, princess." His sleepy voice spoke sending shivers down my spine. I was positive there was no mood of his that would make him less sexy."Good Morning, Alpha." I returned with a smile. We both molded into each other, wrapping ourselves around the other's bodies. I could lay here forever and feel like I lived a complete life.My door bursted open and Helena came in huffing. "Get up princess, you are in enough trouble. You can not been seen with him in your bed."I giggled, the

    Damien POVElena and I stayed in her room hiding from everyone. We had so much drama in these few short months that we were both on edge."Oh, Elena dear. Why is Alpha Damien here?" Helena walked in rubbing her head confused.Elena looked to her sensing something was off. "Are you ok?" She asked."Fine my child. Just seem to have misplaced some time. I guess I'm getting old, no worries though. Would you like me to bring you some dinner?" Helena smiled and her eyes held that soft motherly innocence that we hadn't seen in so long."What do you mean, misplaced time?" My tone let my Alpha aura slip through. I knew something was off and I didn't like it. Not just for Helena sake, but that she was so close to my Queen."I don't know exactly. I woke in the pantry earlier and feel like weeks have passed. In truth, I don't remember being here in the castle that much the last month or so. Like I zoned out or something.""Or something." I growled. My eyes went blank for a few moments mind linkin

    Serenity POV"I can't believe you came here, Nicholas. It was foolish and you could have been killed." I huffed in aggravation at my mate."Well, it was worth it because if I didn't we wouldn't be together. I know you had every intention of leaving me." He pouted."I did not!"He gave me a look telling me he knew that was a big fat lie. "Ok, fine, maybe I was thinking about it, but it hurt like hell." I punched him in the shoulder before getting out of the car."Awe! What was that for, beast?" He whined, standing next to me by the front door to our house."That was for making me like you so much. Now what are we going to do about him?" I pointed to the door where my father was close by waiting for us."No clue. Let's just wing it, I guess." He said, grabbing my hand and leaning closer."Wing it? You have gone rogue little witch boy.""I'm not that much younger then you S and I didn't go Rogue. I was born a witch and always will be.

    Elena POV"I'm sorry S. I was such a foolish child. I can't live without you. Please forgive me!" I pleaded."Seriously, I should be begging you. I lied to you your whole life. You're like my sister, my only true family. I should have told you everything years ago."We stayed in each other's arms for a long time, apologizing over and over. "Ok, I think we both agree we are sorry and forgive each other. Come sit with me and tell me everything." I pulled Serenity to my bed and we laid down side by side.We spent an hour catching up from Serenity's true heritage to meeting her father and unlocking her powers. She even mentioned a certain boy, Nicholas, but pretended like it was nothing. I told her about Tyler's betrayal, my father and Luna Marissa affair in both the bedroom and with experimenting on species. I went on about my love for Ryker and that I finally lost my virginity, which of course Serenity wanted all the details of. I gushed telling her about how Nate and Hope found each

  • Queen of Wolves   Mending Bridges

    Serenity POVI waited in the small village all night unable to find sleep. I missed Nicholas, but I knew nurturing our bond would only cause more pain. Once he realized the life we would have, he would reject me. Right now, I needed to focus on saving Elena and my friends. Hearing Chris say that Elena and Damien were searching for me filled me with so much happiness. I spent months away from everything I ever known. I thought the people I loved, hated me. That they all viewed me as a traitor and a filthy witch. Now I knew they love me too and I used that to push me forward. I dressed in a long elegant green and beige dress. My dark skin seemed to glow and my black hair was half up with lose curls. I masked my powers from my witch heritage, but didn't lock them away. If I needed to fight I would be ready too. The herbs I gave Chris were harmless, and I prayed he didn't figure it out it until it was too late to do anything about it.I hid myself in the crowd, watching Elena and Damien

  • Queen of Wolves   My Regrets

    Ryker POVI tore apart the forest in my wolf form, taking down one rogue after the other. I could tell which ones were feral beast that spent years losing their humanity. I wasn't sure if this was a way to release pent up anger or some offering to the goddess that I could still help our kind by ridding those that harmed others. I cursed our goddess, but still felt a devotion to her. My wolf was at odds with me, wanting to take complete control, but I wouldn’t let him have it. He would run back to Elena then we would all die.The words Elena spoke of my betrayal kept replaying in my mind. Her eyes held no longing or compassion for me anymore. Her love for me vanished and I feared I would never see it again.~ "There is nothing between us Ryker, not anymore. You broke my heart and betrayed my loyalty. Leave and don't return." Elena's voice echoed over and over as I tore the Rogues limb from limb.My wolf argued that she didn't understand the dangers. That we needed to capture her and b

    Hope POV"Oh thank the goddess. Where have you been, mom?" I gave her hug but scolded her for leaving my younger siblings alone. "I was at the castle. After everything that happened I ran back here. Ryker stripped Christopher of his Beta title. He can't do that. We can't let this family fall apart. He is too invested in that damn girl who just crowned Tyler as King."Nate growled at my mom for speaking so disrespectful of Elena. "You will watch your tongue about our Queen. I'm done playing by the Shadow's rules." Lucian came forward and we could both feel the immense power radiating from his aura.I took a second to swoon over his power then smacked his shoulder. "Enough, this is my mother, you will not growl at her, understood. As far as Ryker and Chris are concerned they can sort their own shit out. Right now, we need to get our people to safety. Go pack a bag mom!"Nate smiled at my bossy tone and my mom looked between the both of us about to speak, but retreated to her room inste

  • Queen of Wolves   Flee

    Nate POVI looked around the forrest, looking out to our pack house, my home in the distance. This might be the last time I saw these lands. I let out a long sigh then turned and left. I shifted into my white wolf, grabbing my bag in my mouth and headed to Hope. Lucian was desperate to see her. He needed to sense our pup growing inside her. It filled me with a new purpose that I couldn't wait to fulfill.When I arrived to the Shadow Moon's territory people were running around like crazy. I didn't bother shifting to ask what happened though. If there was danger then I couldn't wait another second to find Hope.Her scent grew stronger near the cells which made me let out a ferocious growl. Elena told me she was taken prisoner, but I didn't actually think Ryker could put her in a dungeon. At that moment, I no longer cared who the Alpha was or what anyone's rules were. I was getting my mate and we were leaving to do this our own way in this world.Two large men guarded the cement doors.

    Meredith POVI watched the ceremony from a distance with a shattered heart. Everything we worked for was for nothing. Both my boys defied the goddess and now all the Shadows would feel her wrath. I didn't want to admit it, but I was growing fond of Elena too. This new life she was about to lead would be one of a loveless marriage filled with nothing but to please others. I was sad for my son mostly. As much as I wanted them apart and I knew Ryker loved her. This could break our Alpha and our family. Too many secrets have lived between us for too long. I rushed back to the castle to change back to my body. I needed to be there for my sons when they returned home.I left Helena's body in the kitchen's pantry with enough sleeping potion to keep her knocked out for a few hours. If I wasn't able to return I at least wanted Helena to have a chance to get her life back. Elena was going to need her and her husband truly loved her. Helena was a good person and she made a good life here in t

    Elena POV"No father! Please don't do this! It's a misunderstanding." I grabbed my father's shirt, kneeling before him, begging him to not kill Nate. The King's eyes turned black then back handed me across the face. The entire crowd gasped at the sudden hit he gave me across the face. They screamed for their Queen to not be harmed by the Savage king.My father cursed at his rash behavior. He knew he couldn't let his emotions take over, but everyone knew he hated to be challenged. I needed to do something."You want to be Queen, then kill this traitor and the crown is yours. Show our people that you will protect them." The King took a blade from a guard and handed it to me.I wrapped my fingers around the blade and the King took his seat. He knew I had to do it or I would lose the faith of our people. I looked out to the crowd in a panic of what to do.I slowly walked to Nate, giving Ryker a look of disgust. This time he caught my eyes and a sharp pain of guilt ran through him. I stoo
