Osric’s POV

“Did you sleep?” Embry sits up against the headboard and yawns as I glance out the window to see the sun beginning to rise.

“No,” I shake my head and take a deep breath as I watch Raven sleep protectively curled up around Gunnar and Roan, who are sleeping on my chest. I have spent the entire night stuck in my head watching them, afraid to close my eyes thinking I will wake up to find out they’re gone and this is just a dream.

“You need to sleep,” Embry stretches making me smirk seeing the thick muscles on his arms flex, he runs his fingers through his brilliant red hair brushing it out of his face and blushes noticing my gaze.

“I know, I just couldn’t stop watching them… we almost lost everything,” I do my best to remain calm despite how angry I really feel that my family is in danger again.

What kills me the most about the whole situation with Dagon being alive, somehow, after I killed him. Somehow, this motherfucker came back to not only haunt me, but he is now hell

    “I’m sorry you felt it, I can’t imagine how helpless you must have felt not being able to stop it, or be there. I’m guessing that’s why you came to Wolf Creek right away, to check on me?” Raven whispers, as her body shudders before she releases a soft sob, making me nod.“Thankfully Angel was there to help the warriors restrain me, to keep them from getting hurt worse, I nearly killed one of them. Yeah, I started traveling to Wolf Creek once I heard you crossed the boarders,” I admit while pressing my lips to her forehead, hoping hearing all of this doesn’t cause her to have flashbacks or nightmares.“I love you Sieluni, I’m so lucky to have you, Embry, Jonathan, and our pups,” Raven whimpers before nuzzling her face into the crook of my neck.“I love you too Bunny.” I brush my nose through her hair, and take in her sweet scent of roses and vanilla, her scent quickly eases the tension in my muscles.“We’ll figure it all out as things happen. I’m just so thankful you and our pups are o

    “Hey, what’s wrong?” Embry questions, when he finds Raven crying I my arms, I shake my head feeling terrible she feels sad.“Talking about how to prepare, she doesn’t want to fail us again,” I quietly growl, hating that’s how Raven feels, knowing damn well she hasn’t failed us. Embry’s eyes widen as he shakes his head, I can see how broken up he feels feeling his pain and guilt through our bond.“Raven, you’ve never failed us,” Embry comforts, he moves from his seat in front of us, as Jonathan sits beside him looking equally upset.“How have I not? I lost our pup,” Raven looks up with the most heartbroken expression, through the bond it feels like being stabbed in the chest with a silver knife coated in wolfsbane.“Rave, you didn’t fail us, or our pup. What happened to you was never your fault,” Jonathan states firmly, reaching out and grabbing Raven’s hand trying to comfort her as she finishes nursing our twins whilst fighting her feelings.“Someone poisoned you with the intention of

My erection strains against my pants as my grip on her breast tightens.“Whatever you desire Rakas,” Jonathan playfully growls, crawling up over her, kissing her stomach over the top of my hand and up to her breast.“Is this what you really want?” I cautiously ask, brushing my thumb across her bottom lip, grabbing her throat so she is looking up into my eyes. I want to give Raven everything, but I need to be sure that she doesn’t feel she has to give us more pups before she’s ready.“Yes, I want more pups, my mates, and everything you can give me,” she begs, reaching up and pulling my hair until her lips crash a

Daddy said we can gibe you your pwesent!” Phoenix runs straight into my legs when my mates and I walk downstairs to join everyone for breakfast. “A present?” I question, watching her eagerly nod before taking off to the living room where Ares leans over the edge of a wooden crate like he is grabbing something. “She found something for you on our hunt,” Benjamin mentions with a cheeky grin, coming out of the kitchen, he hands me a cup of coffee as I feel Embry’s hands slip around my waist. “Thank you, what on earth did she find hunting?” I ask, cautiously watching Phoenix giggle as she leans into the crate before she looks back at me. My mind races wondering what she found while hunting, is it an old weapon, an animal, or something else. “Cwose your eyes Mumma,” Phoenix instructs in a pleading tone as she gazes into the crate again then back at me with an adorable, yet unsure, smile. “Ok I will,” I agree with a nod as I take a sip of my coffee, then close

    “Breakfast is ready, I’ll take these two and put them in their crate, Helena just set up with a warm dish of milk and a small bit of de-boned fish to introduce them to a little meat,” Mummo announces, I nod my head passing the kittens up to her.“Thank you Mummo, I don’t know what I would do without you,” I look up at my grandmother thankful to have her. I get up reaching out for Gunnar when he smiles and gurgles holding his chubby hands out as when he sees me stand.“You would be at the mercy of your mates, so you’d be doing well,” Mummo teases winking at Embry, Jonathan, and Osric who all smile and nod.“I would be doomed,” I playfully tease my mates before Osric pulls me down onto his lap and I shriek as he playfully growls.“Doomed huh?” He mocks me, tickling my ribs making sure to hold Gunnar and I close as I giggle and squirm in his arms.“Yes,” I laugh while grabbing his hand and holding Gunnar to my chest to avoid dropping him.“You really think you’d be doomed with us?” Osric

    “You haven’t told her?” Ryder questions, looking to Thane who shakes his head as he stirs his porridge. “I haven’t had the chance,” Thane admits with a shrug, making me look to Ryder wondering what he has decided. “Thane is my Beta, there is no one I trust more to stay behind and have New Moon’s best interest at heart. He will be acting as Alpha while I’m away, and you’ll be helping him as his Luna and Gamma, Seb will be his Beta,” Ryder announces with a proud smile, Michelle’s eyes widen as Nikki smiles at his daughter. Angel and Karen look at each other, then at Thane before congratulating him on his new Alpha position. “I’m not strong enough to be a Gamma or ready to be a Luna, yeah Thane is an amazing Beta and is very strong he won’t let you down. Are you sure one of the Deltas back home won’t be better suited?” Michelle asks whilst rubbing her stomach, and I smile proud to see how much she has grown. “Michelle you are well suited to be the Luna of New Moon, you care about your

    Raven's POV 17 years later "Rhys, Draig, it is great to see you, I'm glad you came when I sent word," I greet Rhys and his father at our front gate. "I came as soon as I got word of what happened to Roan, how the hell did something like this happen under your nose?" Rhys demands in a deep threatening tone. "Rhys," Draig hisses at his son's lack of respect. "No, it's quite alright Draig, he is her mate and I would rather see him protective of my daughter than not care at all. My mates and I wondered the same thing; Jonathan tore apart the young man's mind, then killed him after finding he raped her to shame her for being a better warrior. He was hoping to break her, thinking she was a threat to his position among the guard. He got Roan alone when she was expected to be out riding," I explain while leading our way through the stone corridors towards our chambers where Roans quarters are. "Who was meant to be with her?" Rhys growls when we reach the stairs that lead to our chambers. "

    Osric's POV Once Raven is face to face with Dagon, I slam my sword into the ground creating a barrier around them keeping everyone out, and more importantly, them in. "No, you have no choice but to face your past," Bane forces his way forward and speaks through me. It has been a very long time we have waited to watch Dagon face his proper punishment. "Once Dagon is gone, there will be no more fighting, if you wish to continue to threaten our world be prepared to live in a dark cell for the rest of your short life before you are executed! This war has been going on for far too long, and it ends now!" Liliana calls out above everyone, who slowly stops fighting to watch Raven and Dagon, to see how this battle will truly end. "Lower your weapons if you wish to survive past this battle! Now!" Ryder orders, stepping up behind his mate. "Lace your hands together behind your heads and kneel for my people to take you in," Ingvar adds, before motioning for his soldiers to cuff those who surre

    Raven's POV "Ready?" Osric asks, once he has tightened the last buckle on my new, black dragon scaled, armor that Draig brought me as a gift. "I think so, this armor is incredibly light and flexible," I mention while twisting and turning to test how comfortable I am in it. "Good, it's been spelled to move with your body, to shrink and stretch with your shift. Lycan form, wolf form or human, you will stay in your armor it'll adjust to your body; Draig recruited mine and Phoenix's help," Osric confesses, I turn to face him and wrap my arms around his uncovered torso that shows of his beautiful tribal tattoos. "You are incredible," I whisper before standing on my tip toes and kissing him. "Is everyone ready?" I watch Embry walk in as he adjusts his kilt while tucking in his white tunic. "Yes, Eya and Bjorn have the little ones in the safe room, where Thane, and an entire company of guards will be stationed to protect them," Jonathan answers, adjusting his cuff links when he appears beh

  • Raven's Daring Ambition   89. Vampires & Hybrids

    Ryder's POV The vampires were easy to convince to host the summit, once they realized Liliana and I were fair to their people. They quickly learned that we wanted to lead them with respect and kindness and in return gave us the same respect. Yeah, there were a few rebellious types but we dealt with them when the time came. Ulric and Gregor agreed to share the position as my second in command and have helped me navigate being king. Without them I would have floundered finding my footing, but once I earned the respect of the kingdom things came naturally. Learning that Freya didn't plan to rule with the same iron fist and fear as her father helped, it gave voices back to those who had kept silent for centuries. Shortly after getting our kingdom in order, I recruited Ares and Phoenix's help to find the hybrids and their leaders. We found small pockets of hybrids among packs, covens, in rogue communities and among humans. They were afraid when found but eventually came around, thanks to

  • Raven's Daring Ambition   88. Witches & Wolves

    Maturity Warning: Sex, BLBenjamin's POVHelping King Osric has been an honor, and for the most part, easy. The lycans and werewolves are happy to follow their kings' and queen's position on fighting Dagon. King Silas, king of the rogues, was the hardest to find and convince out of all the wolves. I don't blame him either, he's watching over many of our people who have been born outside packs, and aren’t welcome because of prejudice.In all honesty, the witches have been the hardest to convince, even with Helena and Phoenix helping smooth the way. It was only when Osric joined us, revealing Odin, that the leaders of the covens began to trust us. Phoenix enjoyed being around the witches and made friends with everyone she met.Nine months later; July 15th, the day before the summit."Daddy, wake up!" I hear yelled as I roll over in bed, hearing Ares still snoring beside me. "Papa! Make Daddy get up, we need to go to breakfast, the witches are coming!" Phoenix climbs onto our bed and beg

    Ingvar's POVNine months I was given to gather the support of the human realm and that is the time it took to convince my government that the lycans, werewolves, vampires, dragons, witches and hybrids were real, and not a threat.In the beginning, my leaders thought it was a joke. I was bounced around from superior to superior to plead my case, it took me bringing in King Draig, Alpha Benjamin, his pup Phoenix and Lord Gregor to meet the Finnish Prime Minister and President with me, for them to finally believe the reality of our situation.Once I was able to properly plead my case, not only did I get the full support of my nation, but all surrounding nations who were aware of Dagon’s broadcast. During their own investigations of the supernatural species, they discovered many were peaceful and few were aggressive. Other nations were already aware of supernatural species and live in peace with them. They were thrilled to help garner permanent peace and end the threat many of them were w

  • Raven's Daring Ambition   86. Dragons

    Draig's POV Trying to gather the clans together to fight Dagon, has been a monumental task to say the least. The dragons aren't afraid of him, but they should be, they didn't see the magic his followers wielded or the control he has over them. Honestly, I'm not sure I would have believed it if I hadn’t seen it firsthand, I still can't believe the smug look on his face when he faced Osric. It didn't matter how I explained the danger to each clan, they still had a hard time believing me. It wasn't until I captured one of his sycophants, with the help of Alpha Benjamin and Ingvar, that they finally believed the power Dagon possessed and took the treat seriously. Even with proof, my people were still reluctant to participate in the summit, they thought we should stick to our own but eventually gave in, sending people form each clan to the summit with a reserve of warriors. The plan Ingvar suggested to Kings Osric, Embry, Jonathan and Ryder was for the dragons to be on the outside, trap

    Liliana's POVWalking out onto the landing at the top of the stairs that lead to the courtyard, with Anarchy nestled in my arms, I can hear cheering. Peering out I see warriors surrounding the center mat where I see Ryder duck under a woman's foot when she tries striking him with a round house kick."Look, Daddy's showing his warriors what kind of man he is," I speak proudly. Pulling Anarchy higher up, I face her towards the training grounds and let her back and head rest against my chest and shoulder. "And he is doing well." Freya walks up behind me with Aiden in her arms as Alana stands behind on her other side."Watch how they both move, she's very well trained," I comment, pointing out how graceful both Ryder and this woman’s moves are; it's like watching a dance. "Rayna has been trained by Gregor since she was a girl, she's the only woman here who is properly trained, she can beat any man here except Gregor, Ulric and Christian," Alana explains, as I continue to watch Ryder shift

    Ryder's POV "Gregor, I had planned to talk to you later but now seems like a perfect time. I plan to overhaul the training program, I want to open training to women, children and everyone without a title, everyone will train. I also wish to break down daily training, mornings will be for children as the first part of the school day, afternoons will be introductory training for women and those who have had no access to training, evenings will be for intermediate adults, and there will be a second group in the evenings for elite skilled warriors who will now be called Deltas," I explain, Gregor and the trainers who have gathered all nod as they take in the changes. "I will not have anyone in this castle defenseless nor will things be separated by status. Eventually we will be integrating hybrids into the kingdom and we will fight to defend them."
