Elena POV

I emerged from the curtain and leaped down off the stage to halfway across the room where Serenity was shielding a child. I twisted the one Rogue's neck then tore the other's arm off. Serenity jumped to my side whispering in shock, "Elena! your eyes, they are..."

I blinked a few times realizing my mistake. No one knew about Davina, not even Serenity. I gave Serenity a confused look and decided to cause a distraction by throwing a fireball at one of the Rogues.

"Holy shit girl! That was amazing. I knew you could throw fireballs." Serenity was jumping up and down while both prisoners and Rogues were trying to flee. A man grabbed the young girl Serenity was trying to save and he held a knife to her throat. Serenity lounged at the man, but he side stepped her. "Tis tis, not so fast, or I'll end her life." He warned us.

Another man came up behind Serenity and then another behind me, holding a knife to our necks. I could feel the sting against my skin, knowing instantly that is

    Elena POVI was only a few feet from the hospital, but I barely had any energy left. Between fighting the Rogues, to using magic, and now practically carrying Serenity, I felt physically drained. My body could just give out any moment. Mentally, I was barely coherent. The whole way to the hospital I cursed Ryker's name, which Serenity only let out a sigh or moan in agreement. I didn't understand how he could be so hot and cold. One minute he looked at me in a way that nobody ever has, making every part of me give into him, then the next he treated me like some idiot child. On top of that, he treated all my friends like they were worthless, sitting below his feet. It infuriated me that I couldn't even be thankful for when he saved me or how he helped me so easily with fire magic. Anytime I felt a spark of gratitude, I was instantly reminded what a self-righteous Alpha he really was. Davina wasn't any help either. She was one extreme to the next. One moment wanting to rip his clothe

    Ryker POVI couldn't get the words that boy said out of my head. "She is in the cells under the castle, but not for long." I needed Elena safe, but I couldn't waste my chance to save my sister. Then she just blurts out where the dungeons are. This girl made no sense. I immediately mid-linked my mom and brother to get to her as quickly as possible. Elena's eyes turned pure silver looking to me. I knew danger was coming, but damn was she sexy as hell when she let her wolf free. I felt a gust of air push against my chest, twirling my body in the wind storm she created to send me away in. "Fuck me!""Sorry and thank you!" She yelled as I flew farther and farther out of sight. I'm going to strangle that little she-wolf one day.Once I gathered myself from being thrown a 1000 ft from Elena's air magic I raced to the library. I was in desperate need to get to my sister before it was too late.My mind was racing a mile a minute at what Elena had just done though. I was pretty sure she has a

  • Queen of Wolves   Friends

    Elena POVI let Davina take over so she could speed her way to the forest. I needed to get as far from Ryker as possible. I was almost positive he would head to the dungeons, but I didn't want to get caught if his big bad wolf decided to hunt me down instead. I was 99% sure he wouldn't kill me. With all the trouble I found myself in lately, I figured that it was more like a 70/30 chance of living through one of Ryker's black eyed rages. After winding through the woods, heading north of the river I found the fields I needed. It was technically a bordering pack's territory, but I prayed no one saw me steal some herbs. I planned on using some earth magic to make the ground fertile while increasing other crops production and I hoped it would be enough to compensate what I took.I would of ask them, but I never even met them before. I didn't have time to find the Alpha and wait for permission. My people were dying and without these herbs they wouldn't heal. I had three bags slung over my

    Ryker POVI was sitting on the bed quietly playing with the little boy from earlier. I knew I had a huge smile plastered on my face as I flew an airplane above the boy's head. I missed having this time to play with my younger brother's and now they were too old to want to. I looked up immediately catching Elena's eyes and I found myself lost in them for a moment. My wolf perked up at her presence, demanding I claim her, but I pushed him down. He was a dominant fool that wanted the strongest female and I wasn't giving into that primal need of his.Elena jumped from the trance when someone loudly cleared her throat next to her. I guess she caught that little moment too. I looked to Serenity who was giving Elena knowing eyes and Elena just shook her head back to her. Elena's eyes shifted between Serenity and Nate who was now at the back tables unloading bags of herbs. Her shoulders drop and face saddened, making me curious what going through her head. Something was upsetting her. She s

    Elena POVI didn't know how exhausted I was until I closed my eyes and fell asleep instantly.I rubbed my eyes, trying to force them to remain open. I was anxious to help and heal my people. I stretched my body, then jumped up, slapping my cheeks. I needed to know where everything was at.I saw Carmelita and slowly walked her way. "Hey Doc, please tell me we have made good progress?" "Oh yes, princess, we sure have. We already sent everyone that was in the other wing home. Over two hundred wolves with minor injuries are all healed with no wolfsbane in their blood. The herbs you and Beta Nate brought were truly a lifesaver.""I'm so glad to hear that. I wanted to help more, but I needed to realize how tired I was. I'm all charged up now, though. What needs to be done?""Oh, princess, that isn't necessary. You should head home and let us finish. We are here to serve you.""Carmelita, I didn't ask your opinion if I can help. I ask how I can help, but if you prefer, I can order you instea

  • Queen of Wolves   Say You're Sorry

    Ryker POV"Because finally, we are all alone, princess." My voice came out in smooth velvet waves as I slid around the table, inching my large, hard body into hers. Our faces were only inches apart; my piercing blue eyes bore into her lavender-blue ones, sending both fear and excitement through her body. I would never tire of the effect I had on this powerful she-wolf.She wasn't sure what game I was playing, but she knew to be weary of my intentions. "And what do you plan on doing with me now that we are all alone?" Elena asked coyly, crossing her arms over her tight black shirt to hide her fear. I hummed as her breast pushed up from the gesture, but I quickly returned my gaze to her eyes. "Do you think I forgot what you did to me earlier or the many secrets you are keeping?""I did what I needed to help my people, Ryker, and my secrets are not of your concern.""They are when you use them to hurl me half a mile down the road or blast me through a wall!" My eyes turned a deeper blue

  • Queen of Wolves   Team Work

    Chris POV Damien walked on the opposite side of the hallway as we cleared the rumble from the south wing. We have already cleared two other paths so the staff can collect more supplies.As we approached piles of cement blocks, we picked up the largest ones to carry outside. It was getting ridiculous how we both couldn't help but try to outdo the other.I wouldn't look like some weak Beta to this little Alpha. Damien had an edge to his attitude because he thought being an Alpha meant more. I was a Shadow wolf, born with Alpha blood, too.Damien was part of the Trio, so he needed to die no matter what. I had no reason to hate him other than that, but I also convinced myself Damien was just as malice and evil as all the other Alphas in his line. The more time I spent around these kids, the more it muddled my head.I noticed the heavy, continuous labor warring on him and smiled. He was an Alpha but didn't train like Shadow wolves. It would be close in a fight, but in endurance, I would ha

    Elena POVRyker and Chris returned with much needed food and everyone dug into the random burgers, salads, fries, and tacos that they brought back. As we sat in a circle of old friends and new acquaintances, I could feel a new bond we had with each other. A bond that I know not one of us ever expected.I plopped on the floor ready to say goodbye to the long and horrible day. Nate plopped next to me, then Damien next to Nate. Ryker rubbed his eyes and gave into the need for sleep laying down next to me, then Serenity laid next Ryker. Chris sighed, laying down between Damien and Serenity. He had an odd pull to this group that he didn't want to admit to, but I think he was too tired to fight it. We all laid together, forming a circle at our heads."I can't believe it was only this morning that the Rogues attack." I spoke with a yawn."I can't believe we are all still alive." Serenity said with fluttering eyes."We made it though. All of us have always made it together." Nate said, grabb

    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

    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.

  • Queen of Wolves   Banished

    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

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
