gonna start getting answers and moving quick.
Benjamin’s POV "What's in there?" Phoenix questions, pointing to my mother’s workshop that is about a hundred yards from the main pack house. "That is your Mummo Deborah's workshop, she kept all her books, crystals, candles, and other items she used to practice witchcraft. This will be somewhere safe you will get to learn about your magic with Adaline and Helena to help teach you," I answer, walking towards the workshop's heavy wooden door. I smile, thinking about the time Mai and I spent here, always saying how her workshop looks like a cottage that belongs in an old medieval village. "Did my mumma learn here?" Phoenix asks, looking up at me, and I nod with a wide smile. "Yes she learned from our mum here, she didn't have magic quite like yours, but she did have some. This will all be yours." I nod motioning to the building, when Gideon comes outside and joins his daughters. "This place is very special, and your grandmother would have wanted us to teach you all about your abiliti
Osric's POV"Embry," I speak while walking across the room to where he and Jonathan stand guard by the stone fountains."I need you to go help guard Gunnar and Roan, I know Raulin, Kitty, and Nikki are capable, and Mum and Phoenix are very strong with magic, but I trust no one as much as I trust you. Right now, I need to know they're safe so I can to focus here to keep Raven and Liliana safe," I admit, looking into his brilliant blue eyes making him nod."Of course, I was going to ask to go and look after them. It would be different if Angel and Karen were here, you trained them and they’re both Gamma for a reason. I know Raven and Liliana will kill all three of us if we leave our pups unprotected. Just stay safe, both of you." Embry hugs me before kissing my jaw, and pulling Jonathan closer."We will stay safe and make sure no harm comes any of our family, you stay safe and if you need help, ask for it." Jonathan hugs both of us, then presses his lips to Embry's."Go, let me know wha
"Tear this pack apart!" Dagon orders, stepping further back hiding amongst his men; when more lycans appear from behind him. Dagon's eyes widen when he sees many of our warriors shift into lycans instead of wolves catching him off guard."With Pleasure," Sasha cackles, unsheathing a sword from under her cloak she swings at Gideon, who quickly parries her attack."You're not getting near the fountains, nor will you touch either of my daughters!" Gideon growls in her face, throwing her back making her heels skid in the gravel."Stand down," I order the lycan fighting against my grip, he shakes his head then rakes the claws from his other hand across my ribs and chest.“How does he have an army?” Benjamin calls out through the link, as he does his best to fight against the warrior in front of him. “He’s always had allies, when the barriers went down for us it must have affected all lycans, including some wolves he has on his side,” Jyrki explains through the link connecting to all of us,
"No," Adaline cries as she reaches out grabbing her son’s hand, watching Eya break down as she holds her mate. "I'm sorry, Rakas, I love you," Adaline's voice quivers when she looks up into Jyrki's dark eyes. He nods his head in silent agreement, he grabs a dagger from his belt and places it in her hand in full support of what she is about to do. "I know Kulta, I love you. I will keep them safe," Jyrki promises his mate. I understand what they're planning to do, and I know I would do the same for my children. I don't know how she plans to bring him back, but I know the cost of such power is a life. "Look at me Pentu," Adaline cups Eya's cheek pulling her into her gaze, "your child will not grow up without his father, I promise you will not be alone." Eya whimpers at Adaline’s words, I try and fail to bite back my growl, knowing Raven and Liliana will be crushed and furious when they return to us. "No, Osric don't let her do this!" Mum cries, when Bjorn grabs her around the waist,
Raven's POV "Osric!" I scream out when I find myself in a place I can only describe as a dark void; filled with what looks like silver wispy shadows in the shape of people. "Lily!" I call out, trying to figure out where I am. The last thing I remember is being in the workshop with my mates playing with Phoenix when I touched the opaque swirling substance that filled the fountain. "We are in our realm, where souls go when our people die," I hear a familiar voice behind me. I quickly turn to see Ruby standing in front of a basin that is sitting on a carved stone pedestal. "Ruby, what is this place, how do we get back?" I ask, walking closer trying to figure out why I’m here. I look around to see things slowly take shape, it is like we are in an ancient castle that has been reclaimed by the forest. "This is where you will carry out your duties to guide the dead, these fountains are how you'll place them where they belong, helping them move on. This realm is like limbo, where souls co
"Mutsi, what are you doing here?" My father growls, his grip loosens before he rushes to my grandmother's side."Calm down Mussukka, I know you're not happy with this. You don't want to lose me, but I will not let your children grow up without you. My little Raven and beautiful Liliana are not ready to lose you, neither are Eya and your unborn pup. I'm ready, I have lived a very long time and it's time there is a new Moon God," Mummo explains while placing her palm to her son's cheek, then kisses his forehead.“I’m so proud of the man you have become, you’re such an amazing father and I won’t let you or your children lose that,” Mummo presses her forehead to his and takes in a deep breath of her son’s scent. "Mutsi, there has to be another way," My father’s voice cracks as he shakes his head, holding her hand to the side of his face.My heart breaks for him, knowing he would make the same sacrifice for Liliana, our sibling to be, or myself; just the same I would do for my pups. Any pa
Liliana's POV"So I will make the bonds between werewolves and their lycans?" I look up at Clover. She stands over the basin sitting on the white pedestal as I stand by the basin sitting on the lavender colored pedestal."Yes, you will bind the lycan spirit to the host, giving them heightened senses and making them stronger, you will also make the bonds for wolf and dragon shifters, you're the Goddess of Life you are responsible for the living." I freeze hearing Mummo's voice come from behind me."Mummo, what are you doing here? How did you get here?" I watch my grandmother move towards me. A tear falls down my cheek when I notice she looks different. She is pale and glowing, very ethereal, more like the Moon Goddess we know she is."It's ok Pentu, Dagon has attacked Silver Moon. During the attack your father was killed. I took his place, he is the new Moon God. I couldn't let Dagon take him from you girls, and his unborn daughter," Mummo explains while taking my shaking hand into he
Gideon's POV"I love you son," I can barely hear her when I feel warm lips against my temple. The same warmth slips into my heavy body, as the warmth spreads, I feel my limbs slowly grow lighter. I can't move when the person holding me falls limp. I hear gasps and soft sobs as my chest feels heavy knowing it is my mother."You did it Kulta, you saved him," I hear my father cry; I force my eyes open while sitting up taking a deep sharp breath. “Mutsi, Isä.” My heart stammers when I look over to see my mother lying limp in my father’s arms as her best friend holds them, trying to comfort him.I shake my head thinking losing Mutsi always seemed impossible. My mother was the Moon Goddess; nothing was supposed to be able to kill her. She has always been the one to protect us all."Gideon, I... I'm s so... sorry," Eya stutters when my eyes focus on her quivering bottom lip, and I notice the tears slipping down her cheeks. I'm numb to the tingles that graze my cheek when her hand caresses th
