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
Gideon’s POV "Gideon," Eya speaks, when I feel the tingling of the mate bond against my jaw. I blink and shake my head bringing myself back out of my thoughts. I focus on her touch as I stand with my arms braced against the shower wall letting the hot water run over my head, chest and back. "Hey, look at me." Eya slips between me and the wall, pulling my gaze down to hers. My stomach sinks seeing the sadness and worry in her eyes. "I'm sorry, I got lost in my head. Are you ok baby?" I brush the strands of brown hair away from her face. I try to focus on my mate rather than everything assaulting and overloading my senses. It is strange to have my senses so heightened, everything is more intense, as is my connection to the moon, but instead of me just connecting to my pack and family I can feel all lycans and werewolves. I can't even begin to understand how my mother learned to deal with these feelings, and how she did it for so long. "I'm ok, I am just worried about you," Eya admit
Gideon’s POV "Nikki." I reach out and greet him, he squeezes my hand and gives a gentle nod as Eya leaves us to talk. "How are you doing?" Nikki asks, following me inside towards the sitting room. A smile tugs at the corner of my lips when I see Kitty sitting on a cushion on the hard wood floor coloring with Phoenix. "I still have no idea, it's weird knowing she is gone; and it’s strange getting used to feeling everyone and everything," I answer, sitting down in a dark blue armchair near the stone fireplace. "It will take time to get used to, Addy has always been here. It's also gonna take time getting used to you being our Moon God," Nikki admits, walking over to a bar in the corner of the room and pouring two drinks. Receiving one of the drinks from Nikki as he sits in the adjacent chair and watches me. I ignore my friends gaze and stare at the amber liquid as I swirl it around the heavy glass tumbler, trying to piece together how all this shit happened. "Thank you, it really w
***Memory Continued***Gideon’s POV"Gideon get him out of here now," Osric's command gently washes over me giving me the push I need to rush to my friend. My bottom lip quivers when I look him over to see he has been beaten to a bloody pulp."Angel." I grab his arm pulling him away, there is no resistance or movement, he is completely limp and not making any sound."Angel!" I yell, trying to rouse him as I pull him into my arms, only to realize he isn't breathing. "Wake up Angel! Hey, I need you to move! Wake up!" I shake him trying to get any sign of life out of him when I hear Helena scream behind me as she collapses to the ground. She pulls Angel from my arms and as she wails at the loss of her son. I sit, completely frozen, staring up at Osric who is holding Draven against the wall."What did you do?!" Osric throws Draven to the ground and towers over him. This is the first time I've seen Osric like this, and it is beyond terrifying, I've seen him train with Isä and have trained
Raven's POV "Osric!" I call out through the link, when something in the sky catches my eye as a large object blocks the sun. I shift, feeling uneasy, and pull Gunnar and Roan close; we are outside enjoying the fresh air with Liliana, Freya, and their pups. "I'm with Gideon, what's wrong Raven?" Osric questions, when my eyes widen realizing the large object is a fucking dragon. "Osric! Embry! Jonathan!" I position myself in front of my family, as the large black and gold dragon lands in front of us in the large field we are have been laying in. "Raven!" I hear my mates, my heart racing in my chest as I focus on the giant, lizard like, reptile in front of me. The dragon is almost the size of the pack house, and the gold edges of his scales glisten under the sunlight when the creature stretches its wings before folding them against its body. "Who are you?!" I demand, forcing my aura out over the dragon, knowing they're shifters like lycans and werewolves. "Raven, get back!" I feel o
Raven’s POV"Then you may have her, you will deliver Dagon a message for me. If he harms one hair on my sister's head or touches Freya, he is as good as dead. I will surrender myself, make sure to tell him to be careful what he wishes for," I watch the dark-haired woman's eyes widen when I throw her to Draig, like it is nothing. In all honestly it is an easy decision, he deserves justice for his mate, I know the pain of feeling your mate die and I am not about to deny him justice and revenge."Kitty, can you help Mum take all the kids inside and help keep a close eye on them?" I request, glancing over to see her and Nikki picking up Gunnar, Roan, and Anarchy as Mum grabs Aiden."Already on it, we have Raulin securing your suite for us to watch them, Phoenix, Rhys come," Kitty reaches out for Rhys' hand, making him shake his head."Rhys listen to her as if she is me, we can trust these people," Draig reassures his son, then looks to Kitty and Nikki who both nod."Now!" Draig growls, gr
Raven’s POV"What do we do now?" I ask when everyone is dressed. Unsure of what to do next, I look to Osric then Ryder as he stands beside Vaari and shakes his head."What do you mean, what do we do now? Are you kidding me Raven, you just put Gideon in his place like a child throwing a tantrum. You know we need to go after Freya and Liliana! If you don't go after my mates, I will do it myself!" Ryder growls, stepping closer to me, Osric cautiously pulls me behind him and growls at Ryder."Don't you dare take your anger out on Raven, she is doing the best she can and right now, she is the best chance of getting them back safely," Osric scolds Ryder, as Jonathan's hand slips into mine making me look up to see Embry standing protectively on my other side."I've never seen such insubordinate subjects, nor such protective kings of a queen who acts as a king," Draig comments making my mates growl while I smirk, finding his comment amusing."Raven is anything but an ordinary queen.
