I knew something was on Jake’s mind as soon as I crawled into bed with him, but he wouldn’t open up to me yet. I welcomed the distraction he wanted to provide me with, to shift my focus from his muddled thoughts.
When he scraped his canines against the sensitive flesh of my mark, fire coursed through my entire body, combusting my nerve ends and crackling the sparks on my skin. I was completely enamoured by my mate, I wanted it all. His love, his fears, his dreams, his future.
Pieces of clothing swirled around us when we removed them from each other’s body with our claws. Driven by animalistic lust and hungry desire I felt him slip into me with one thrust. The sounds spilling from my lips were a mumbled mess due to the frenzied state he could put me in with just his touch.
š¾ Luna PernwélThe familiar buzzing sound of a portal resonated through the field. I heard the zapping ring in my ears, flashing back memories from when I had travelled through one. I rose to my feet, wiping my fingers over my eyes, making sure I was seeing things right.A female figure appeared through it, falling to her knees while the scorching ring of the portal fizzled out into the thin air. Her long hair fell over her face as she scrambled to her feet exhaustively in her frail form.I saw her tumble towards me as I got up from my position and walked towards her carefully, taking in her features and her frame. She wore a mismatch of disheveled clothes, nothing like the Royal attires I had seen her wearing since my youth. There was no trace of her crown that she had always worn with pride and he
š¾ Luna PernwélSitting on our bed that night, I rolled my lips in between my teeth after all those revelations that poured down on me. I was drawing blood with my canines as I scraped over the irritated skin. I still wasn’t used to the fact that my body was now different and I healed quickly. My new ability only meant that any wounds I had before were ripped open again in my nervous stupor.My mother, Aerin, needed to rest after the time she had spent fending for herself out in the wild Realm, from being tortured for information, to escaping the dungeon by a hair's breadth and then putting herself in danger trying to find out their plans.Aerin was sleeping in one of the guestrooms after she received medicines from Rune and ate dinner with us. She had gone so long without proper sustenance tha
š¾ Luna PernwĆ©l The light of the moon shone through the bars in the holes in the wall that they called windows. Soft snowy petals made their way into the cell through those steel columns, mounting down on the edge of the stone, creating a white blanket. I looked around the dungeon warily, blinking my eyes to tune in on the details around the smaller room. My head throbbed profusely, unable to focus or concentrate. The painful drumming in my left eye was madenning, I touched my fingertips to it and I noticed then that it was swollen. I was sitting up on the cot that they called a bed with my legs dangling from the edge and I leaned over one of the puddles below my feet. The white light from the window reflected brightly in it, the only other light to grace the room. I saw the reflec
š¾ Alpha JakeWhen I saw Aerin draw the symbol of Awen in the air, my breathing hitched in my throat. It was the same symbol that Pernwél had on her wolf. The Blessed Wolf symbol was connected directly to her druidic ancestry.I don’t know what Moon Goddess' plan was or how the planets aligned to make this happen, but the outcome, as magical as it was, didn’t make our doomed future any better.All of Pernwél’s projections had come true, even the one in the snow that we didn’t find a meaning for in the beginning, had unraveled to be exactly what her mother, Aerin, had been going through as she escaped Selmor’s dungeon.While I believed at first that the reason her mother came here wasn’t with good intentions, my judgement ha
š¾ Luna PernwĆ©l We arrived at Green Valley pack land by the next morning. Jake had driven all day and night and had let us sleep when succumbed to exhaustion. He only stopped the Land Rover for a brief time to catch some shut eye himself. The ride had been interesting to say the least. Like we had thought before, the Blessed Wolf abilities were an extension of my own Druidic nature. They worked together in harmony in my body and provided a channel to let Awen through, able to manipulate certain streams of energy. That's possibly the reason why I could speak to my own wolf spirit. Just in the woods, she was part of the flowing spirit of life, Awen. I wasnāt sure yet, because we couldnāt talk directly to the Moon Goddess and ask her for advice but my best guess was that everything flowed through nat
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
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 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.
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
