Welp, Nathan really screwed that up. Do you guys think that Naomi and Slade made the right decision to take his alpha title away?
I cannot explain to you how livid I am with my best friend. Nathan rejected his mate for absolutely no fucking reason at all. It was so hard for me to listen to Devin and help Nathan out of the hall without shaking the shit out of him. As someone who has been rejected by both of my mates, watching Nathan reject Nyx simply because of the family that she was born into pissed me off more than I can explain. She has proven herself to be an ally of ours time and time again. Hearing what she went through because Zak and Devin didn’t trust her and not complain about it, how she cared for Kayla and Esteban during their imprisonment, and then knowing how she helped us defeat the Reding Hoods…this woman is the bravest, most selfless woman that I’ve ever heard of. And Nathan just tossed her away, like he’d find another mate out of nowhere. It kills me. How could he do that after seeing what’s happened with me and also with Rowen and Alexander? I’m so angry that I have to get out of ther
Kaia and I are out at a boutique, looking at wedding dresses. Ever since Meredith, Gael, and Hakeem got married prior to the wars, the idea caught on in the wolf community. And it’s something that I have dreamed of for a very long time. I want my mates to be mine and wholly mine. For the rest of our lives. It’s why, when I found out that Tomas was my mate, it disgusted me more than anything. But that’s only because it hurt me beyond measure. A mate that had been with nearly every unmated she-wolf that I had ever met in Arcadia. Goddess, just thinking about Tomas hurt so much. Fucking trio matebond. He hadn’t rejected us. In fact, he had passed out from the pain of our rejections of him right after we gave them. I was once thankful for that because it meant that he didn’t see me in pain from the rejection. Kaia and I were able to comfort each other before he woke. And then Kaia, ever the decisive and stubborn one, immediately said, “Reject us, so that we can be done
Zoe gets dressed and the two of us hurry out of the boutique, running as fast as possible before our mothers can stop us. We almost make it before Sandra sees us. “Where do you two think you’re going? We’re in the middle of an appointment here!” she calls after us. “You guys look at the mother of the bride dresses. We’ve got some other things to take care of!” I call over my shoulder. The door is closing as my mom, Karamea, calls, “Fucking doesn’t count as something you have to take care of right now!” Zoe is laughing her ass off as I hurry her to our apartment which is two blocks away. We had it together, having been best friends since we were still in diapers. Honestly, the Goddess putting us together as mates was the best thing that could have ever happened to us. I don’t want to spend my life with anyone else. I think this, forcefully pushing the mental image of Tomas when he realized that we were his mates out of my head. No matter what the Goddess, my wolf, or my stu
“And then Kara just shouts out ‘Fucking doesn’t count as something important that you have to go do right now,’” Sandra cackles, recounting our daughters escape from the bridal boutique today. My mates and I are out to dinner with our best friends, Diego, Sandra, and Lily. It’s been about a month since we had seen them at Kaia’s ascension ceremony. The day that our girls found out that they were mated to each other. Diego pulls Karamea into his side, kissing her cheek as he tries not to guffaw with laughter at his mate’s antics. Lily just rolls her eyes before squeezing Karamea’s hand on the table. Kara just shrugs her shoulders. “What? They’re the ones that want to do the wedding ceremony before they add the third to their trio. If they’re going to insist on that, they should at least stay for the fucking apointment.” At the mention of our daughters’ third, I can’t keep a growl from forming in my chest. Both Bhakti and Sandra hit me, Bhakti on the shoulder, Sanrda on th
“I’m so fucking tired of this shit!” Citra says, pushing the grimoire away from her, nearly knocking her glass of lemonade over. “It’s like Selene and Hecate just disappeared.” I sigh, putting a piece of paper in my spellbook to hold my place before closing it. “I hate to say it, but you’re right. I don’t know what else we can do to find them.” “I keep telling you guys, we could do a summoning,” Nora says for the millionth time. “And we keep telling you ‘no,’” Citra bites back, rolling her eyes. “We just don’t know what will pop out in the summoning,” Meredith says, her tone a lot nicer than Citra’s, though you can still hear her fatigue in her voice. “But isn’t that what the salt circles are for?” JoJo asks. “Sure, if we happen to pull up a demon. That’s not the only thing that you can summon, especially if you’re trying to bring a god into the circle,” I say. “But, isn’t there something that we can put as a barrier for whatever we could summon? Salt for demons, iron for
I moan at the feeling of her hands kneading my shoulders. “You’re so tense, baby.” She leans in, her scent of wild plums and incense tantalizing me. She peppers my bare shoulders with light kisses. The feeling of sparks that follow each of her touches make every nerve fiber on my skin stand up on end. She chuckles at the goosebumps that start to pebble my skin. “I might be able to do something about that.” “Fuck, sweetheart. How do you do this to me every single time?” I moan. She rubs her hands across my chest and then down my back, her mouth moving to the juncture of my neck and shoulder. The second that she starts sucking there, it’s like a lightning bolt goes to my cock, causing it to get harder than fucking granite. “Nyx,” I moan. “Yes, Nathan?” she whispers along my skin before licking her mark on my skin. “Please let me touch you,” I whine. She chuckles in my ear. “No.” Staying behind me, she scoots up against my back, her naked chest pressing against my
“Again, Nyx! You can’t just rely on your magic to fight!” Zak calls out to me as I practice fending off Brandon and Dev at the same time. I already know that neither of them are fighting me at their full power, since this is something that we’ve just started. But I’ve been working with Esteban, Zak, and Brandon for months to build my combat skills. Ever since I came back to their…our home, I’ve been working on making it so that I was able to defend myself. Though I have a ton of magical abilities, there are many things that could bind or temporarily stop my powers. And if that happens, how will I keep myself safe? I need to make sure that whatever we face doesn’t get the better of me. In the past, I wouldn’t have worried about it. I had enough magic that I would eventually be able to take care of myself, though it may have been at the expense of those around me. Of course, I didn’t want to have to get someone killed. That’s just not the type of person I am. But, I was n
“Are you sure that they even want to do this?” I ask. “They’ve both been pretty adamant about not wanting anything to do with me.” I’m standing with Zoe’s and my parents at the edge of the football field at the back of the dorms. I mean, we’re in Texas. Of course we are at a football field. The real reason that we’re here is because it’s outside of training and playing season for football. Here, Zoe, Kaia, and I can get some privacy with our parents close by in case something goes wrong without being closed in where their scents would literally make me a sobbing, groveling mess. “We’ve talked to them. They understand that the matebond is extremely important, not just to the pack, but to the three of you,” Bhakti says, placing her hand on my shoulder. Liam hasn’t been that keen on me since the beginning and he stands a little away from me, eyeing me like he’d much rather drive his fist into my stomach than guide his daughter to my side. Sandra, on the other hand, comes up

I’ve been stuck here in the Underworld at Uncle Hades and Aunt Persphone’s palace for weeks, unable to see my mates for anything. I was so fucking stupid. Erasing their marks wasn’t even the dumbest thing that I did, though it was by far the worst thing I could have done to make them trust me. Especially Jacob. No, the dumbest thing that I did was checking in on them once they went back to the gates of Valhalla. Because Lucifer caught me as they were escaping to come to the Underworld. And now he has all of us down here together so that he can “keep his allies close.” I’ve managed to slip out a couple of times just to check on my mates, but Lucifer himself caught me last time. I’m still recovering from being thrown into the flames of the Phlegethon River. It didn’t matter that I told him that I was checking up on our enemies’ whereabouts and activities. He said that he had other’s to do that and I was to stay in line and follow his orders. I don’t know how I’m going to be
“How is it that we haven’t heard anything in two weeks? I don’t understand!” Nathan is frazzled and very much on edge. Not only is he grieving the loss of Gregory and Citra, but he hasn’t heard from Nyx at all. And not only that, we have no idea where she is. We’ve heard nothing from the evil gods or goddesses. Nothing from Lucifer. Hell, we don’t even know where Hermes is. Selene and Hecate have returned to their realms. Thor is still hanging out with Selene in her realm. I’m not sure how I feel about that, but I also doubt that I have much say in how this goes. If Selene is our mother and she mates with Thor, does that make him our new daddy? Blech. I don’t even want to think about it. That’s just wrong on so many, many levels. The weird thing, though, is that we haven’t heard from Hermes either. Neither has JoJo, Alexander, and Jared. They have no idea where he is. JoJo and Alexander have said that they’ve gotten a couple of mindlinks from him sporadically h
I feel hollow. Completely gutted. Like everything has been scooped out of me. Nyx is gone. We have no idea where she could be. Nathan hasn’t been able to find her on the Astral Plane. We haven’t been able to find Hermes and we can’t get in touch with Hades or Persephone since we left Tartarus.Citra is dead. And though I didn’t know who Citra was until 22 years ago, she became as much of a sister to me as Isla, Ivy, and Indigo are. As much as Iris was. I presided over her handfasting with Michael. I’m the godmother to Caleb, her first born. I don’t remember a day going by in 22 years where we didn’t speak to each other at least once. And now she’s gone.And my mate died saving me. He literally pushed me out of Fenrir’s grasp and died to protect me. We said goodbye to him yesterday, Jamal, our children and I staying in the field until his pyre completely burned out. I have no idea how we’re going to move on from here. Jamal and I are basically living, breathing ghosts.
Bella and I have been in a fog since Gregory’s death. He was one third of our soul and now that he’s gone, it’s like there’s a great gaping hole in our lives. Our two sets of twins Freya and Finnegan and Amethyst and Axel have been trying to help us, but it’s all that they can do to keep their grief at bay. Gregory and I had been together since before the civil war started. When it was us against Mathias. About 22 years ago. We found Bella about a year and a half later when the Riding Hoods first showed up. Twenty years together. Though it might seem long, it wasn’t enough. Gregory was our bright spot in this world. He always found the silver lining. Always found something for us to smile or laugh about. Always made the day brighter just by being him. Bella and I have always been the practical ones, bogged down by our responsibilities as alpha and High Priestess. Gregory found a way to cheer us up. Brought a different perspective to our hard times. How will we find
I rush over to Bella and Jamal who have fallen to the ground sobbing. Mom looks split between going to Michael and going to Bella and Jamal. Michael was in her original pack, but Bella and Jamal have been a necessary part of our family because of my being a hybrid. They are both like family to us, though I’m definitely much closer to Bella and Jamal. As the witches seem to be gathering around us, Mom and Dad run to Michael’s side. Hawk and Jareth follow them. They are sobbing. Wordless, agony filled cries falling from their mouths, They cling to each other, not seeming to sense any of us around them. I can’t even imagine the pain that they are going through. It has to be awful. I don’t even want to know what I would do if Nyx…I can’t even think about it. The fact that I can’t even see her is killing me. And we’re not even mated. We’ve barely known each other for a few months. How awful must it be for them to have lived together for more than 20 years. To have child
I have just finished slicing through two demons when I see the giant wolf enter the field. That has to be Fenrir, the evil werewolf son of Loki. Yeah, I know my mythology. Chris went through a phase where she wanted to know everything about all the mythologies in the world. And at that point, Zak and I had already decided that he was on math and science duty, while I was on history, cultural studies, and English. Can’t beat a master bullshitter. I know exactly who he is and what he’s capable of. So when I see him heading towards Bella and Citra, I start to run across the field. Through our pack mindlink, I yell Get to Bella and Citra! I feel all the wolves look towards them, but Fenrir landed less than 20 yards from them. It would just take a few of his massive steps to make it to their side. I see Gregory and Jamal fighting their way towards Bella, Michael to Citra, but there’s no way that they’re going to be able to make it in time. But Gregory puts on a huge burst
Within seconds, wolves and gods are teleporting into the camp. The fae and other supernaturals have also contacted their rulers and we have portals opening up all over the place. The only ones that don’t show up are JoJo, Alexander, Chris, and Jacob. Hecate still hasn’t come back from bitching out Hermes, so they can’t teleport to us. “Alright everyone, circle up! We’ve got to come up with a plan NOW. What information do we have?” Mom says. Her goddess gift of strategy is really going to come in handy here. One of the Valkyries that Gondul sent comes back, streaking through the sky and directly to her leader. “Mist!” Gondul calls when she is about 20 feet away. “Where is Hrist?” “Keeping watch. The demons are pouring out of the gates. Fenrir is with them. Looks like he is leading them with a god that we do not know,” the Valkyrie, Mist, responds. “Fenrir?” Summer asks. “You mean the Norse werewolf?” Gondul’s face turns to look at us, her expression impassive. “Yes.
It’s been two hours since Nathan went to the Astral Plane. Bella stopped in to check on them after he had been there for an hour, but found the couple talking to each other in low voices and snuggling on a couch. She elected to allow Nathan to stay there for another hour. He and Bella are emerging from his tent right now. “How is she?” I ask my best friend when he gets close. It’s easy to see that he’s been crying, but just as easy to see that spending that time with his mate has helped him a lot. I want to give him a hug, but Nathan doesn’t always welcome that kind of affection when he’s this upset. “She’s hanging in as best as she can. I think that seeing someone other than her tormentors was really helpful,” he tells me. “Bro, it’s got nothing to do with seeing ‘someone’ and everything to do with seeing you,” I tell him, clapping him on the shoulder and squeezing. He actually blushes a bit, a small smile crawling over his face. “She told me that she loves me.” At t
