I felt anxious, like I had done something really wrong.
I had just arrived at this pack, finding my mate and being accepted into Grey Moon was all I would have wished for. In the span of one day I had managed to get scolded by a pack Elder, the Alphaās grandmother at that, and caused an argument between the Luna and the Alpha.
We were having such a lovely day together. I finally felt a part of a pack as we mixed herbs and spoke about healing properties and then I felt the need to open my mouth and tried to bond with the Luna. She had been nothing but kind to me, I felt bad for her that they hadnāt told her. How can you keep such important information from someone who is to be Luna of this enormous pack? It didnāt sit right with me, but it wasnāt my place to have spoken up.
š¾ Beta DarrenI was reading the little dude a story from one of my many books when I heard Rune come in.“Here mommy!” Drake bellowed from beneath his fluffy sheets.“What are my boys up to?” She sang with her lovely voice as she turned the corner of Drake’s bedroom. Her amber eyes held a twinkle to them as she gazed into my own.I had been busy moving stuff out around the place, making room for both of them. She had been sleeping in my room and I on the couch, making my wolf go crazy inside me and that kept me up at night, knowing that our mate was sleeping in our bed.I had boxed up a bunch of comic books and figurines that weren’t age appropriate and I moved th
š¾ Beta DarrenI leaned over her, pressing my lips soft but firmly against hers. I poured my emotions into that kiss, everything I had; my heart, was hers. I wanted her to know it, to feel it.My hands trailed down her chest, until I danced my fingers teasingly over her underwear. Rune arched her back, opening her legs to give me permission. I peeled her underwear from her body excruciatingly slow. It took all I had to maintain control. It was the only control I had left over my body as I slipped a finger inside her moist core. She was warm to the touch, but I welcomed the heat she radiated with pure white hot pleasure.Rune’s moans increased in volume as I glided my finger, then two into her melting center. Her arousal filled my nostrils, I dipped my head under the covers, feeling th
š¾ Alpha JakePernwél had come to bed late last night, when I felt the bed dip next to me. She didn’t exchange words and I felt like it was not the time to bring it up. She had woken up at the crack of dawn and left before we could even discuss it properly. When I woke up, the bed next to me was empty and her side was cold to the touch.I knew she was mad at me and I had smacked myself over and over for not telling her sooner, but I really thought that I was doing the right thing by waiting to tell her. It’s not just something you bring up at dinner. ‘Oh, by the way, you’re probably going to die because I’m changing you into a werewolf when I mark you’. Nope, not the way to go about it.I hauled myself out of bed and got ready for training. I had been slacking off these days with b
ā³ PernwélLast night I had gone for a walk around the town, relishing in each detail, feeling the connection that had formed over the short amount of time since my arrival. I wandered for hours, alone with my thoughts and the cold night chill. I hiked all the way to the East Border, where my senses of protection had kicked in for the first time. The small pup, crying behind the trees and reuniting her with her mother.Much has changed since then, I went from being afraid and alone after the loss of my people to having a real connection to this pack and its members. I was pummeled with information about myself that I had never thought possible. I found my father, who was alive in this Realm, and my mother, who had unfortunately died. I had encountered the other half of my soul and learned about the mystic connection with a deity.
ā³ PernwélNever before had I given in to the urges that surfaced when I’m around Jake. A force that growls alive in me and pushes to be set free.I didn’t regret for one moment having sex with my mate, I did however, not feel comfortable with being bitten. It had been explained to me that it would trigger the change in me, but I was scared of the underlying reason why it had taken so long for them to tell me.Jake and I spent the rest of the morning and noon tangled in each other’s limbs. The dresser had broken completely and needed fixing and the mirror lay shattered in pieces on the floor, littering it with tiny shards. The order had been placed for a new tub. I gazed towards the bathroom and I could see the crack in the porcelain
ā³ Pernwél“Is there a way for me to solidify my survival?” I asked Grandma Rose.The question had been circling in my mind when I found out about the possibility of death after the bite. It worried me and I hoped there was a way around it.“I have no idea sweetheart, I have never encountered a situation like this in all my years.” She shook her head, drinking the last bit of tea from her cup before refilling it.“There must have been, with a pure human.” I countered.“Yes, but you aren’t a human are you?” Grandma Rose pointed at me with her spoon. “You are different, you even possess magic.”“M
š¾ Alpha JakeI called Darren through the mindlink to meet each other in my office. Pernwél was right, I needed to leap into action with my pack members. I had always been straightforward with them and they were hurt and angry with me for keeping such important information from them.When the Alpha found his Luna it was a celebration for the entire werewolf pack. The strength of an Alpha came from his people and vice versa. A Luna is the culmination of it all, she solidifies the bond between the integrants and benefits all of us. It also meant the possibility of an heir for the Alpha, meaning there was continuity in sight. Stability for the future of the Grey Moon pack.Darren was already waiting for me when I arrived, leaning against the window sill with his arms crossed over his chest. He still looked tired and wor
š¾ RuneDarren had come back bearing great news yesterday night. I was just putting Drake in his bed when he arrived and hugged my small frame from behind, trailing soft kisses over my neck and collarbone, lingering on my mark.Alpha Jake was ecstatic about us and after addressing the pack about his own news he invited them all for a presentation this weekend to celebrate the Beta female, me.I was feeling very nervous about it, but Darren calmed me down, saying that it would be a festive gathering to receive congratulations from the entire pack. The presentation of the Beta female wasn’t an entire ceremony like it would be with Pernwél’s Luna one, but it was reason enough to have me trembling skittishly on my legs.Every pack had their own customs. I ca
ā³ Aerin, Queen of Agmysther“There must be something I can give to you.”I begged and I prayed, to spare my love from such a cruel demise. The King of Agmysther had no heart, no soul. He was as black as a night without stars.“What could you possibly give me?” His voice boomed through the room as he held me up by my throat, eyeing me as if I disgusted him. I had failed him, by loving another man.“More power?” I tried throwing him something he would be interested in, maybe I could offer him a spell or a brew that could make him happy, a reason to spare Viggo’s life.“I have everything I need.” He snarled. “And if I would want something else I would take it with a snap of my fingers.” He hissed against the skin of m
ā³ Aerin, Queen of Agmysther“You will be married in a fortnight, Aerin.” My mother announced as she opened the letter that she received from the village of Agmysther.“Do I have any say in the matter?” I replied curtly, not letting my emotions take free reign. I was expected to listen to my parents and not disobey them.“Why would you?” She answered with a gasp. “You are to become Queen.”Our marriage wasn’t one of love, but of convenience. My parents were noblemen from the South and I had inherited my Druidic powers from a long line of female Druids in my ancestry.We all knew that what the King from Agmysther wanted was power. I fitted into
š¾ Alpha Jake Three years had passed since the dreadful attack from Selmor, and a peaceful time had come to the Grey Moon pack. The ancestor, Darach, the oak tree from Agmysther had been the only thing that remained in our Realm. Except for the Druid, Grendal and his wifeās body that stayed behind as well. We lost many pack members that day and had a proper rite burial by the magical oak tree that was now a part of our land. The magical powers from the Third Realm had left the area and hadnāt returned, which we all were grateful for. Our pack rebuilt and repaired damages in the following months after the war. We lost over twenty pack members and we tried our best to provide solace for their mates and children. It was hard, it always is after a battle, but this one took more away than we had bargained for. It took
š¾ Luna PernwĆ©l The moment that I regained consciousness in Jakeās arms I knew there was something wrong with me; a piece missing. I didnāt feel the Awen flow through me anymore. I felt drained, like a current of energy had struck through me, leaving me empty. My eyes fluttered against Jakeās chest, he had shifted back into his human form to carry me and I couldnāt recall for a moment what had just happened. I opened my eyes to see the blue sky above our heads, the sight startled me and I tried to wriggle free from Jakeās arms. He wouldnāt have it and he clutched me closer to him. āHow do you feel?ā He spoke with a sad raspiness to his voice. His emotions of worry whipped around me, striking me with their icy shards. āI donāt know.ā I responded, finding my own voice. āThe l
š¾ Alpha Jake I never had encountered such creatures in my life as the ones that flanked Selmor in the back of the battle field. PernwĆ©l invaded my thoughts over mindlink explaining that they were rare creatures from Agmysther, mountain giants from the North. My breathing cut inside my throat and I struggled to swallow the ball of nerves down. These creatures from another Realm, the mountain giants, had the colour of the earth and were bare with the exception of a cloth covering their loins. Their heads reached the highest tree tops and a shudder wacked through me in the realization that the battle had taken an enormous turn in our disadvantage. While the poisoned arrows were doing their work, I noticed from my peripheral that they didnāt do the giants much harm. It seemed like everything we threw at th
š¾ Beta DarrenPortals started opening on the far edges of the field, one by one, footsteps pummelled through the tall grass. Selmor’s army was here.Dark elves came through the various magical openings between our Realms, sprawled across the field in an organized manner. Tidy formations, like robots following their master’s orders, thundered through. The thudding of the metal boots against the moist surface from the strange rain reverberated through the area as they took their places in a rehearsed shape, forming a wall along the tree line.They looked exactly how Pernwél described them. Obscure metallic armour held together by leather straps around their bodies. They wore helmets making them look like carbon copies of one another. Darkness swirled around them, like they were part of it. Their swords hun
š¾ Beta RuneThese last few weeks have been intense. Preparing for a new battle while carrying a pup in the beginning of the third trimester was harder than I expected. I wasn’t as physically strong as the female pack warriors, but I wasn’t fighter material. I was a healer in every sense of the word.I tried to not let fear overwhelm me. I knew that our pack was strong and that we would fight until the threat was eradicated. Grey Moon was known as one of the most brutal packs regarding training. Even though you got to know the people that ran it on a personal level, you couldn’t be in a better place. Werewolves knew Grey Moon and not to pick fights with them. Sadly, Alpha Markus did and we had to bury four pack members. I had the feeling that fighting these Dark Elves would be harder and there would be more casualties.
š¾ Luna PernwĆ©l Everything was finally coming together. In a week we had managed to prepare so much in record time. Jake had decided to use the building next to the pack house as a storage space filling every room with the leftover materials from the attack against Cold Creek. We had everything at our disposal all under one roof. The poisoned arrows, courtesy of Rune, would be a weapon that no-one would see coming. We had created something so deadly, that one hit in the right place would see our enemy dead within minutes. It would take just a few seconds before they rolled around in excruciating pain that caused every muscle in their bodies to spasm and convulse. I handpicked the best archers and taught them what to do. With such a lethal concoction on the arrowheads, we didnāt want them to
š¾ Luna PernwélComing back to Grey Moon with both my parents in the back of the Land Rover was strange. Not the fact that they were looking at each other like two teenagers in love, but because it was different for me. I never had any parents and now I had them sitting behind me in the vehicle.I had been raised completely as an orphan, thinking I had no family at all. It took me one hard fall on my bum into another Realm to find my true family, and then my real one revealed itself. It had been a crazy ride and I sensed that there was a lot more to come.Now that we knew what Selmor wanted and the lengths he was willing to go to get it, we needed to come up with a strategy. One that would destroy their plans of ever returning to the Third Realm with what they want. Our first priority was
