Raven's Agony of Desire 20. Submit
I rip into his flank making him try to chase me, I pivot and move against his exposed side grabbing his throat.I snap my jaws around his flesh as tightly as I can, tearing into him when I shake my head violently.Lucas slips from my grip bleeding profusely from his fresh wounds, I walk closer shifting back to my human form.“Do you submit?!” I demand, as he attempts to lunge at me with the little energy, he has remaining.I side-step him, wrapping one arm around his throat pulling his giant fury body against my chest.I lock my free arm around my wrist that’s holding him in place, then tighten my grip choking him.“Submit!” I command, feeling my aura surge within me unleashing a power I never knew I was capable of.Since marking Liliana, I can feel I’ve become stronger, but I never knew I had an aura matching hers.“Never!” Lucas chokes, when he is forced to shift back.I ignore his claws dig into the muscles of my forearm, and shake my head knowing I have no choice but to take his l
Raven's Agony of Desire 21. Mine, My Alpha
Raven’s POV “Alpha Ryder,” I smile when the door opens and Ryder enters with Embry behind him. “Alpha Raven, congratulations on the twins,” Ryder chuckles deeply, when Liliana tackles him in a hug, squishing Aiden between them. “Mine, my Alpha,” Liliana whimpers into his chest holding him close as Aiden snuggled comfortably between them. “Dada, Dada,” Aiden giggles, looking up at Ryder then nuzzles into his chest with Liliana. “My Luna and my boy,” Ryder whispers against her hair, then kisses her and Aiden relieved to have them in his arms. “Thank you, you kept our people safe from invaders; congratulations on your new position.” I bow my head out of respect, glad that I was able to focus on giving birth to my son and daughter with my mates by my side. “Of course, you’re my sister and I will always keep you and our people safe, besides you needed Osric and Embry here with you. New Moon wishes to have an alliance with Wolf Creek making us sister packs working together to bring th
Raven's Agony of Desire 22. Come Down
“Do you feel up to a shower?” Embry questions, rubbing my back as I lay on my side, holding Roan and Gunnar against my chest.“I think so, can you hold them outside the shower? I don’t know if I can do it without seeing them,” I admit, looking back at Osric who nods his head clearly feeling my anxiety through the bond.“Calm down Bunny it’s ok, I understand you’re protective of our pups and don’t want them leaving your sight… soon the den will be finished and you’ll feel more secure,” Osric softly speaks, kissing my forehead taking a deep breath making me do the same, slowly calming me.“I love you my Beast,” I breath out, pressing my lips to Osric’s then turn to Embry.“And I love you my Knight,” I whisper, kissing Embry, glad to have my mates holding me with our twins in my arms.“I love you too Mo Ròs Dubh,” Embry softly speaks, kissing me back as he sucks my bottom lip gently making me smile at his playfulness.“And I love you both,” Osric replies, applying a soft kiss to my templ
Raven's Agony of Desire 23. Beta of Wolf Creek
“How is she?” I hear Eya’s voice in the room, feeling Osric’s warm body under me with Gunnar still in my arms.“Resting well, the twins are so perfect,” Osric answers proudly, with a gentle rumble in his chest.I smile at the soft feeling of Embry’s hand absentmindedly drawing on the small of my back with his fingertips.“She is beautiful Da and I can’t believe how much he looks like her. How are you two doing, I know you’re afraid for Raven?” Eya questions her father, making me leave my eyes closed, wanting to listen in, as I can hear Roan coo in Embry’s arms.“She reminds me of you when you were just a pup. I’m just afraid of Raven pushing the Elders to fast, Orin is still a threat… I know it can’t be easy not having her mother,” Osric admits sadly, rubbing my shoulder, breathing in my scent.“Don’t underestimate your mate, my new mother is stronger than you, ask Nana. She probably misses having her mother, but you need to remember what her mother did, and was going to do. Raven mig
Raven's Agony of Desire 24. Departure
“I’m glad you were awake, especially Roan and Gunnar. I was hoping to see you before we left,” Liliana smiles brightly as she meets me at the stairs. Enveloping Roan and I in a huge hug, as Embry comes up behind us cradling Gunnar. “I would kill Osric and Embry if they let me sleep through you leaving. Roan and Gunnar are more than I could have ever dreamed of; I can’t believe her hair, it’s identical to Embry and her eyes are Osric’s. I can’t believe how blue Gunnar’s eyes are with his black hair,” I stare down at my children, taking in their beautiful features wondering what they will be like. “I would too, I love you, Raven. Roan and Gunnar are absolutely perfect and beautiful, I couldn’t be happier for you,” Liliana takes Roan from my arms gently, then Gunnar from Embry making me cringe slightly, I mentally remind myself that she is my twin and they are safe. “I love you too Lily, I’m going to miss you especially with Roan and Gunnar. I’ll make sure to send you pictures and visi
Raven's Agony of Desire 25. Shadow Peak
Liliana’s POV “Nervous?” Thane questions, looking into the review mirror at Ryder whose knee is bouncing anxiously. “A little, I just killed their Alpha,” Ryder admits, looking down at my had slipping into his. I lace my fingers with his, loving the feeling of the sparks his large calloused hands leave on my skin. I kiss the back of his hand, doing my best to calm him knowing this is a big deal. Not only are we becoming Alpha and Luna of our own pack, but Ryder is also a hybrid, and now the first Alpha hybrid that we know of. “Relax son, you will help this pack and bring it out of the dark ages. Alpha Lucas was never a good Alpha, he abused the hell out of most of his pack members. Shadow Peak is one of the few packs to still have Omegas who are treated as slaves,” Nikki explains from the passenger seat, he glances back at us then at Aiden who is resting his head against the side of his car seat. “That will end today, and it’s New Moon. Thane, I hope you’re up for some work,” Ryd
Raven's Agony of Desire 26. New Moon
“This pack will no longer be Shadow Peak; we will not follow the same rules and traditions enforced by Lucas. There will no longer be a strong social divide among those you call Omegas and the rest of us. I am Alpha Ryder this is my Luna Liliana, and this is New Moon.”“We will no longer have Omegas; it is no longer a rank or position in our pack. We will not treat our pack members, our family, as slaves. No one here is beneath another. Starting today all pack members are equal even if you’re the rank of Delta, Gamma, or Beta, you will respect all pack members and treat them as equals,” Ryder announces, grabbing my had and pulling me to his side.Our family form a barrier between us and the pack.“You killed our Alpha and you think you can come here and change our way of life?!” The tall man from before roars, walking closer when Thane steps in his path.“Beta Thane let him pass,” Ryder instructs, moving towards the stairs he glances back to make sure I am guarded, not letting this ma
Raven's Agony of Desire 27. Grand Accommodations
“We will have to bring our own warm touch to the house, we can correct the excessive spending and put the money where it is needed to help the pack,” I reassure. Rubbing my hands across Ryders shoulders and hugging him from behind to help relax him. I know how much he wants to change things for the pack and our people.“If this is the type of home you want then don’t change it, I want you to have everything you could ever want or need. I just want to make sure the pack has what they need, before spoiling ourselves,” Ryder looks over at me as I stand on my tip toes to rest my chin on his shoulder.“I don’t need nor want all of this fancy stuff. Honestly, it’s a bit much for me. I like rustic with a touch of luxury, like something between this and Wolf Creek,” I admit, looking around liking most of the décor and furniture, but it’s too much. I don’t want to live in a museum where we can’t touch anything.“Well like you said, we’ll get this place to our liking, and hopefully quickly, bec

“I’m sorry, I don’t mean to be grumpy I just don’t like not knowing what’s going on, at least get them closer to the house and surrounded by the Delta warriors,” Osric apologizes, brushing my hair back and I nod. “Don’t be sorry, I love that you’re protective of us. Roan is starting to smell pretty ripe, so I’ll take them in to change them. Organize Karen and Bjorn to protect Liliana and her pups, as well as Phoenix and Ares. If there is a threat, we will handle it and be prepared,” I reassure, reaching up and placing my hand on the side of his face trusting his instincts. “I will, Jonathan, stay with Raven,” Osric orders, making me turn and roll my eyes before heading towards our house. “Mumma Raven, is evewy thing ok?” Phoenix skips her way towards me, pulling Ares behind her. “Yeah, Roan has a dirty diaper, so I need to take them inside to change her,” I answer with a nod, as Kitty comes over and stands beside Ares like she’s watching over them. “Can we help?” Phoenix questions
Raven's Agony of Desire 101. Actually Family
“Kitty will make an excellent Beta, she’s a great choice Ben. Good news is Raven won’t have to miss her all the time, since we’ll be visiting your pack and you’ll be visiting ours frequently, so Phoenix and Gunnar are able to see each other,” Osric’s gruff voice chimes in, and I nod agreeing to his point. “Yes, and she’ll be a great female influence for Phoenix, I know she’ll make sure Ares and Phoenix are always safe. I’m pleased you both agree and give your blessing,” Benjamin smiles, when my eyes follow his to see Phoenix smiling and giggling at Roan trying to crawl to her. “Oh, I have no doubt of that, she has been training the women of Wolf Creek, and brought several women from Shadow Peak with her when fleeing from Alpha Lucas. Kitty is very strong and is great leadership material, she has a way of connecting with people,” Osric admits, and I nod, unable to keep my eyes from drifting back and forth between Benjamin and Phoenix, who glances up with a smile that’s identical to Be
Raven's Agony of Desire 100. Sworn Loyalty
“Luna Raven, we are proud to call you our Luna, there has never been someone more worthy of the title. You have protected us and saved our Alphas against dangerous enemies, I Gamma Bjorn swear my loyalty and the loyalty of Blood Moon’s Deltas to you and your mates, to be here at your disposal, to do your biding and carry out any orders you deem necessary,” Bjorn steps forward and kneels at my feet, when Blood Moons Deltas follow suit. My heart races when I feel hot tears drip down my cheeks as pride floods through the bond. “Thank you, Gamma Bjorn, it is an honor to be your Luna and know you have such faith in me,” I thank him between deep breaths, trying to calm my nerves when my mates flood the bond with soothing thoughts and feelings. “Luna Raven, I Osric Bloodwrath your mate and Alpha King of the Bloodwrath Kingdom, submit to you and swear my loyalty to your rule and judgement. Not only are you my Luna, you are my equal and I wish to rule by your side, never above you,” Osric ta
Raven's Agony of Desire 99. Luna Raven
“Wow,” Jonathan’s voice comes from behind me, I look up to see most of both packs here standing on both sides of an aisle leading towards Helena, who is standing at an arch way.The arch is carved, four huge posts decorated with Norse knots up the pillars coming together with wolves and a raven in the center.“Wow,” I gasp, seeing it decorated with hanging flowers, making it look like it’s straight out of a fairy tale.“The pack is very excited to finally have its Luna and to welcome its new Alpha,” Embry mentions, grabbing Jonathan’s hand, leading him down the aisle between the crowd.“Ready?” Osric asks, standing in front of me and watches me blush with a gentle nod.“I think so, it’s about time, isn’t it?” I question, knowing not only do I want to be his Luna, but Blood Moon really is ready to accept me as such“It really is, I’m very proud of you,” Osric gently presses his lips to my forehead.“Me too,” I smile, then quickly kiss his lips, letting him escort me to the arch where N
Raven's Agony of Desire 98. Getting Ready
“Damn, I’m not sure who looks better,” Embry’s voice comes from the bathroom as Jonathan, and I finish getting dressed for tonight. “Jonathan,” I giggle, staring at Jonathan’s hair that is braided back into a mohawk. I smile seeing he is wearing dark gray woolens with a weapons belt and remains bare chested like Osric and Embry, making him look like a Viking God. “I wouldn’t be so sure about that,” Jonathan chuckles while looking me up and down, making my cheeks turn bright red. All three of them stare at the red linen chemise gown under the under bust black corset, that is intricately decorated with gold lined filigree. I am also wearing a matching Victorian age sleeveless double-breasted tailcoat over the top showing off the loose peasant sleeves of the chemise. “You guys only like this dress because the corset shoves my milk filled boobs up into my face, I can use them as pillows,” I roll my eyes and shake my head while turning to button up the coat. “You are stunning Bunny,”
Raven's Agony of Desire 97. Declared Enemy
“Hey, there you are,” Jonathan whispers while pulling me higher up in his arms as I look around to see I’m on the floor in his lap, with Osric and Embry on either side of us.“He tried taking me,” I softly speak while looking up at my mates, and Jonathan nods.“He won’t get anywhere near you again, we will keep you safe,” Osric reassures as he leans against Jonathan while grabbing my hand and kissing my knuckles.“He’ll do the same to Roan if he ever gets his hands on her, he’s working with witches it’s how he has stayed hidden,” I panic while sitting up to see, my father, Liliana, Ryder, Benjamin, Ares, Kitty, and Phoenix all standing around us watching me in concern.“He never gets dem,” Phoenix reassures, leaning towards me from Ares arms making me nod.“I don’t let him, Gunnar pwotects us,” Phoenix adds, making me smile, knowing she can see some of what’s to come.“Orin saved me from him, and you betrayed Orin then to protect us. You were always around after that,” I look up
Raven's Agony of Desire 96. Mommy! Help Me!
Trigger Warning: Child Abuse“Raven you won’t remember this, it’s going to be ok,” Rebecca tries to walk over and comfort me, when my claws slip through my fingers slashing at her cutting into the soft flesh of her belly.“Fuck! You stupid little bitch!” Rebecca screams at me, kicking the bars crushing my fingers making me yelp and growl angrily not understanding the hate radiating from my mother.“I thought she hasn’t shifted?” Dagon questions while getting up and walking over to look me over.“She hasn’t,” Rebecca answers, her eyes are blown wide while looking down at her stomach she is now holding.It quickly dawns on me this must have been right around the time I did shift for the first time; I can see the heat emanating from my body as my eyes are glowing a brilliant shade of red.“Ruby what is this?” I question, seeing her standing behind the younger me trying to pull me away from the bars, when I realize she’s younger too.‘This is a memory, something buried and suppressed,’ cu
Raven's Agony of Desire 95. Repressed
“How are you feeling about today?” Mummo questions, when I walk into the kitchen looking for some juice with Gunnar in my arms. “I’m excited, I can feel how excited everyone in Wolf Creek is for tonight,” I admit, grabbing the juice, for Mummo to grab the bottle from my hand as she has a glass already on the counter. “He is so precious; you did an excellent job with your pups. Of course, Wolf Creek is excited, you’re their Alpha, and you have changed their lives for the better. I’ve never seen Wolf Creek prosper so well, nor have I seen a pack where there are so little domestic issues among mates,” Mummo admits, pouring me a glass of juice when I look back hearing Roan fussing behind me. “What’s wrong?” I ask, watching Jonathan bringing our daughter whose face is bright red nearly matching her hair. “Oh, she thinks she is starving, and I apparently don’t have the goods,” Jonathan explains making Mummo laugh quietly, and I nod, knowing the twins aren’t due to be nursed. “I just nur
Raven's Agony of Desire 94. Natural Mum
“Shhhh, what’s the matter?” I sooth Roan, scooping her up from the center of the bed surrounded by pillows that smell of my mates. “Oh, you’re a stinky girl, and I’m sure you’re hungry too,” I nearly gag at the smell of her diaper as her cries turn into soft sobs and whimpers. “Hey, stop your crying, Mumma has you,” I reassure, carrying her over to the changing table with fresh diapers and cloths to wash her with. “You’re so pretty like your Da, you have his hair, even the curls,” I giggle while laying her down staring at her beautiful locks that are identical to Embry’s. Roan quickly calms down at my voice and touch, making my heart melt at how easy it is to sooth my pup. “Your brother snores like both Da’s and can sleep through anything…” “Just like his Mum,” Osric interrupts me while coming into the room with a towel wrapped low around his hips. “I don’t sleep that heavy,” I laugh, and shake my head at Osric’s comment while glancing over at Gunnar who is in a deep sleep spraw
