Darren 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 PernwélWith the preparations for Rune’s presentation as Beta female, Jake and I hadn’t had time to ourselves. I hadn’t talked to him about what had happened in the forest and how it had influenced my decision. I was so ecstatic about it all that I had jumped into his arms the moment he came looking for me and our kisses and touches had consumed us.We had gone to bed exhausted that night, it had been an eventful day to say the least. The next morning, after we both went to training, we had jumped directly on the work to be done around the pack. Jake had mountains of paperwork laying on his desk and didn’t have the opportunity to get started on them because of the distractions lately.While he confined himself in his office with Darren, I would help Rune around town with her planning f

ā³ PernwélJake laid down next to me, cupping my face in his hands. The candles and the lit fireplace gave the room a nice warm feel while the shadow of the flames danced on the walls and ceiling. The green and brown elements of the room reflected the warm light beautifully, like being in the forest with a firepit.“Is everything okay?” Jake asked, stroking the hair away from my face as he came to lay between my legs, pinning me to our bed.“I’m just thinking.” I gazed lovingly into the eyes of my mate.“About the change?” He lowered his lips to my forehead and gave me a tender kiss.“Sort of, but I'm not worried. I think I’m going to be okay.” I spoke confidentl

ā³ PernwélThe sensation of being completely filled by Jake was one I couldn’t get accustomed to. He stretched me delightfully and hit the right spots deep inside me. My walls clenched around his shaft as he slowly edged in and out of my core.His hand grabbed on to my waist to keep me down as he built up a pace, thrusting in and out of my core. While he did, his gaze never left mine, he was opening the door for me to look directly into his heart, baring himself to me as he made love to me. His other hand trailed over my shoulder, tracing the area around my collarbone, that scorched under his touch.Somehow, my body knew what was about to happen, and craved it instantly. My core was on fire, the only way to subside the flames was with his touch.He lowered both his h

ā³ PernwélMarching towards the building ahead of me, I grumbled deeply in annoyance. The moon shone bright in the starry night sky and the rest as far as I could see in the distance, I was met with pitchblack darkness.The river gave off the calming sound of its running water while the cold chill lapped hungrily at my face. My thick fur coat shielded me from the wind coursing through the riverlands.Two lanterns sat at each side of the door, giving enough light to the surrounding area. I pushed open the door with brute force and sauntered forward into the large open room. A round table sat in the center, people had been arriving and taking their seats before me.Uttering a grunt from my lips, I scraped the legs of the chair

ā³ PernwélWe spent every waking moment preparing for the impending attacks that were coming our way. Warriors were pushed harder in training each morning and more patrols were organised around the perimeter, splitting them up like Darren had said.Plans were constantly discussed and improved in an attempt to cover any gaps in our defences.Carpenters had begun to work with the idea from Viggo’s tree hut, like the one I had in Agmysther. They provided the two key lookouts around the territory and a way to gaze over miles of pack land. We decided for a smaller version and instead of putting the wooden steps into the trunk, we opted for a retractable rope ladder.Rune and I had been working long hours on creating the salves and ointme

š¾ Alpha JakeThe words had left my mouth on their own accord. I gazed in awe at the beautiful silver grey wolf that Pernwél had shifted into. Her eyes had remained the emerald green that I loved as I locked gazes with my own.The transition hadn’t been easy, the pain had caused her to scream, making me instantly regret that I had marked her. The sounds of bone snapping and the twisting of limbs, stretching in impossible angles had made me want to trade places with her.Soon, she had given in to the overwhelming pain and she lost consciousness, letting her body take over the rest of the shift. Seeing her transition like this, how her small frame had to endure the change, made me feel grateful for being born a werewolf.We had learned to shift

š¾ PernwélI was having difficulties adapting to my wolf form, the various sounds and smells were swarming around me, hitting me hard with a cacophony of stimulations. It was a new state of awareness.While dealing with all of that and the ache of the muscles of my recently shifted and relocated body, everyone around me was having a conversation about a strange marking on my back.Rune had started it, exclaiming ‘I knew it’ with incredible conviction. She stroked the lines on my fur and I concentrated on the movement so I could call the symbol forward in my mind as she traced it. When I looked to my back I only saw that the lines were a darker grey than my silver fur.Three bars inclined towards the center and three small circles a

š¾ Beta RuneThe possibility had crept up to me multiple times. I just didn’t have the confidence to trust anyone with my suspicions about our Luna. I was still a newcomer and I lacked the audacity to speak my thoughts out loud.When she finally shifted into her wolf and I saw the marking on her back, it became clear. I was certain that the prophecy was talking about Pernwél and I couldn’t contain the happiness that bubbled up inside my chest.It meant that Valeria was right, I had interpreted the prophecy correctly and that made it possible for all the rogues to find redemption here. There were a lot of packs in the same situation that Susan, Steven, my pup and I had been in. To feel part of a pack again, after losing everything, is a new start.Being accepte

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

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.

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

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
