Javonte

My dad received an email from River Valley informing us of the deaths of Alpha Kevin and Beta Rich; the email goes on to mention that Elder Jalen has been imprisoned for his involvement with hunters. The council members also requested that we join the Slasher Pack farewell ceremony and the initiation of the new Alpha and Beta.

We arrived at the ceremonial grounds, and at the front of the podium lay Alpha Kevin and Beta Rich on decorative haystacks. On the stage were Camila, Corey, Lukas, and two other women, who I guess are going to be the new Alpha and Beta.

The first girl stood up dressed in all black; her eyes were bloodshot red, and tears stained her high cheekbones.

“Good morning, Alphas and Lunas, from the surrounding area. My name is Debbie Sims. Here below my feet is my father, Beta Richard Sims. His life and Alpha Kevin's life were taken away in a cowardly way. These men held this pack together and stayed away from war, but war found its way to us. As the new leader

    Serenity: Age 21It's been two years since I came to Embermoon, and a lot has changed that needed to change. My magical abilities increased, and I got my master's degree in agriculture instead of computer science. I spent a fair amount of time with the nature witches, combining my elemental powers to strengthen our farmlands.  I glanced around my room. Nala and Nina were both staring at me, waiting for me to open the manilla envelope with my new identity. They have been counting down the days and waiting to give me a makeover. I peeled back the top and removed the documents. There was a passport, a driver's license, a birth certificate, and a social security card.  The girls snatched the driver's license and grinned from ear to ear. This was going to be a fun, permanent transformation. I sat in the chair and let the girls go to town with my new style. After hours of sitting and my butt going numb, the girls handed me a mirror, and the woman staring back

    SerenityThe music was echoing through the house. Jordyn was grooving to the beat of the music as she entered my room with a tray. When she swung around, the tray had two shot glasses, sliced limes, and salt. She sat the tray on my vanity. I licked the back of my hand, just below the index finger, sprinkling salt on the wetness. I held the lime slice between my thumb and forefinger. With my other hand, I grabbed the shot glass and toasted it. Just before knocking back the shot of tequila in one swift motion, I licked the salt off and bit into the lime slice. Savoring the combination of flavors!“Woo-hoo, that's how you pregame before the club; hurry up; the cab will be here any moment. Don't forget your scent blocker.” Jordyn said, dancing her way out of my room. I put on my gold bracelet to mask my scent, and luckily for me, it matches the rest of my accessories. We climb into the cab, and she hands me a styrofoam cup filled with daiquiri mix. By the time we arrived outside the Dar

    Javonte "Come on, guys, let's go celebrate Serenity's 21st birthday. That's a big milestone, even though she's not here with us.” Camila's bubbly voice suggested. “That doesn't sound like a bad idea. Plus, we can go to Dark World Nightclub to check on our establishment. We can see it from a customer point of view.” Lillian quipped. I sat back on the couch. Nothing these past two years has thrilled me since Serenity left. I had focused all my energy on combat training, lifting weights, and transitioning to Alpha. I glanced between the pair of puppy eyes staring at me and said, “Fine, we can go.” They jump up and down, squealing. If it weren't for it being Serenity's birthday, I wouldn't entertain the idea of going to the club to party and having bimbos throw themselves at me. Lee handed me a beer and said, “Let the party begin.” Lee drove us to the nightclub, and the girls had the music turned all the way up; the

    Javonte I fell back on the bed, kicking and waving my arms around. I placed the pillow over my face and let out a menacing howl, followed by a series of screams.The room door busted open, and Serenity's hazelnut scent hit me like a freight train. I tossed the pillow to the side, and there she was, standing in a sports bra and leggings, huffing and puffing. I was on cloud nine. She was not a figment of my imagination. A smile graced my lips as she stood in the doorway with her arms across her chest, shaking her head.Was she out training? Did she see me have a full-blown temper tantrum? I rushed to her side, lifting her slim-fit body into my arm and passionately kissing her. She wrapped her legs around my waist as I made my way back to the bed. Our passionate kiss deepened both of us fighting for dominance. We broke apart to catch our breath when her hot mouth attacked my neck, where her mark lay.My body shivered, and the intensity of the tingles erupted everywhere. I bit down on my

    Serenity I leaned up against the door. What am I afraid of? I have been anticipating this day for the last two years. Listening to Tay begged me to talk to him. I couldn't figure out the right words to say.What if he thinks I'm crazy when I tell him about the prophecy or the visit with the Triple Moon Goddess? With hesitant steps, I opened the door, grabbed Tay's hands, and approached the bed. I made him sit down while pacing back and forth, my heart racing with the weight of prophecy. He needed to know the truth. "Tay," I began, my voice barely above a whisper. I discovered something… the night I left. I encountered the legendary Triple Moon Goddess and the Graeae Sisters. The goddesses informed me that I was to bridge the gap between supernatural beings. I'm still not quite sure how to do that yet, so I rambled. And then, 24 hours ago, the Graeae Sisters communicated a prophecy."The one

    Serenity I placed the ring in a petri dish in the center of the coffee table at home and sat back on the couch. Jordyn sat in the armchair with a red candle.  “Are you ready, hot stuff?” Tay turned my head to look at him. “I'll be right here, whether it is a good or bad memory. I will be right here.” He placed soft kisses on my lips.  I laid on his lap and gave Jordyn a thumbs-up. She lit the candle and then set the ring on fire. I shut my eyes and inhaled the smoke. I stood outside Embermoon Coven, The sun was setting over the mountain tops, and hues of red, orange, and yellow cast shadows down the mountain range. The skyline was crystal clear. The sounds of the nighttime creatures graced the air. A woman was sitting outside the coven entrance, admiring the sunset while nursing her baby. The woman was singing a song to the baby. The song had a catchy tone, one that I will not forget. It was about being powerful.  The baby

    Javonte As I traveled along the scenic route to Maryland, Serenity laid her head up against the window, admiring the view. I grasped her hand and pressed a kiss upon her knuckles. I could sense a whirlwind of emotions coursing through our bond: the burden of the prophecy, the lingering memory of her mother, and the anticipation of meeting her father after 21 long years. “Hot stuff; do you want to talk about it? You've been awfully quiet this entire car ride.” Still nothing from her; a simple nod of her head, and she was back, staring out of the window. “Just know I am here to share any burdens with you.” I rubbed her thigh. Just like that, the car was silent once again. I turned on jazz music and continued on our journey. I parked on the boardwalk, waking Serenity up. “Let's go have some fun to ease your mind.” She rubbed her eyes and saw the sandy beach ahead of her. Her eyes gleamed with joy. We s

    Serenity Leaving Atlantic City, I was skeptical about meeting my father. Me, showing up after 21 years and destroying his life with his new family. Then I wonder about what other secrets I will discover or if they will lead me closer to completing the prophecy. Watching the farmland pass by in a blur, Tay's emotions were laced with admiration and worry. If it weren't for him being by my side, I don't know if I would ever consider meeting my father with as much determination as I did. Drifting off during the car ride to New Moon, I reflected on the day's events. Tay surprised me with a spontaneous beach trip, which turned out to be incredibly therapeutic. We let out the toxins and self-doubt with our intense kissing and mind-blowing sex. The sunset we witnessed was even more breathtaking than the one from the mountaintop.Tay woke me when we arrived outside New Moon gated community. The armed warriors inspected the outside of the vehicle. Tay signed us in, and the warrior signaled th

    Javonte The bracelet felt heavier in my pocket than it should have, its strange energy prickling against my skin even through the fabric. The obsidian-eyed wolf figurine was tucked in the same pocket, its edges smooth and cold. I didn’t understand why, but both objects unsettled me in a way I couldn’t shake. After breakfast, I made my way to River Valley Pack to visit Elder Tony. He was wise beyond his years, a repository of wolf history. If anyone could decipher the meaning behind these objects, it was him. The morning air was crisp, and the packhouse buzzed with activity as wolves went about their daily routines. The drive there was uneventful, just a blur of trees. I had the music on jazz to keep my mind focused on the road ahead. But as I reached River Valley, the unease in my chest grew stronger. Something wasn’t right, and I couldn’t ignore it. When I arrived, I knocked once before entering. Elder Tony looked up from a leather-bound book at his office desk, his sharp gray e

    Serenity I let exhaustion claim me, and I drift off to sleep, basking in the electrifying tingles of Tay's proctection. I feel this a soft, warm presence in my mind. A tiny, childlike voice whispers, “I’ll protect you, Mama. But they’re coming for us.”I jolts awake, realizing my unborn daughter was warning me. The next morning, we hosted a memorial celebration. The air was thick with the bittersweet scent of incense and wildflowers, a mixture that carried a weight of remembrance and hope. I stood beside Tay in the graveyard, my hand resting protectively over my growing bump while we faced the pack. Meadowood was finally whole again. A sanctuary rebuilt from ashes, with stronger borders and an unyielding sense of unity. Today's memorial celebration wasn’t just for those we lost; it was a declaration that we had survived and would honor their sacrifices.The statue, carved from shimmering white stone, stood tall in the center of the graveyard. It depicted a wolf howling at the moon,

    Serenity I opened my eyes, meeting his gaze while we stood in the ultrasound room. Tay was watching me, his eyes full of love and something else. Something I couldn’t put a name to. I wasn’t sure what had changed in him these past few weeks, but I knew he was waiting for me to open up, to let him in. And in this moment, I finally felt ready to do that. “I’ve been a terrible partner,” I began softly, my voice barely a whisper, as if the words might break me if I said them too loudly. “I’ve been shutting you out when all you’ve ever done is try to help me.” My breath hitched, and I looked down at the ultrasound printout in my hands, clutching it like a lifeline. The tears that had been threatening to spill finally broke free, spilling down my cheeks. I hadn’t realized how much I had been holding back until now.The sound of the heartbeat echoed in my mind long after we left the clinic. It was like a lifeline tethering me back to reality, pulling me from the dark place I’d been trap

    Javonte The night we returned to Meadowood felt heavy, the air thick with unspoken grief and unanswered questions. Serenity had barely said a word since we’d left the grove, and when we arrived, she bolted towards our tent without looking back. Through our bond, I felt the raw edge of her heartbreak, her longing to feel our daughter’s warmth again. Her emotions surged through me like a tidal wave—her pain, her exhaustion, and the weight of the destiny she had never asked for. It was unbearable, and all I wanted to do was take it away from her. But I knew better than to chase after her right now. Serenity needed space to process everything. She always had. So, instead of following, I stayed behind to handle the responsibilities she couldn’t bear at the moment. The pack had gathered near the bonfire to continue the celebration—or what was left of it. The mood had shifted dramatically since our abrupt disappearance earlier that evening. I forced a smile, my mind racing for the ri

    Serenity The hum of power in the air was overwhelming, pressing against my skin as if the grove itself were alive. I stood frozen, barely able to process what had just happened. One moment, I was celebrating my birthday in the arms of my mate, surrounded by our pack. The next, we were here—in this sacred, otherworldly place—face to face with legends. The Moon Goddess Selene stood before us, radiating an aura of calm authority. Her silver hair flowed like a river down her back, and her luminous eyes seemed to see straight into my soul. The Graeae Sisters flanked her, their forms shimmering like water caught in moonlight. Despite their ethereal presence, their expressions were warm, almost amused. And then there was Sam. My breath hitched at the sight of her. She wasn’t the Sam I knew—my loyal, albeit overprotective, wolf companion. Her silver coat glistened as if she had spun from starlight, and her dark gray eyes held an ancient wisdom that made my chest tighten. There was a reg

    Javonte The moment Serenity walked out of the tent with her bag slung over her shoulder, I knew she needed this trip. She needed a break, a chance to breathe away from the constant demands of Meadowood. But damn if it didn’t sting to watch her go without me.She threw one last playful glance over her shoulder before climbing into Corey’s truck. I leaned against the frame of the packhouse, arms crossed, watching the truck pulled away and disappeared into the trees. I exhaled slowly, a faint smile tugging at the corner of my lips. If anyone could lift her spirits, it was Camila, Corey, and Lukas. They were her anchors, just as she was mine.The sounds of the truck faded, and an idea began to take root in my mind. Her birthday was the day after tomorrow, but something told me waiting wouldn’t do. This year had already thrown so much at her—the prophecy, rebuilding Meadowood, managing alliances, and the relentless pressure of leadership. She deserved one day that was about her. No stress

    Serenity I woke to the soft warmth of sunlight filtering through the tent. The familiar sounds of Meadowood stirring outside reached my ears—builders hammering, the distant laughter of children, and the soothing cadence of the river flowing nearby. For a moment, I let myself enjoy the peace, curled beneath the thin sheets that still faintly smelled of Tay. But the serenity didn’t last. A sudden wave of nausea hit me like a tidal wave, and I bolted upright, my hand instinctively clutching my stomach. My mouth watered in that awful, familiar way that always came before I was sick. Stumbling out of bed, I barely made it outside the tent before doubling over, retching into the grass. I wiped my mouth with the back of my hand, leaning on my knees to catch my breath. The nausea subsided as quickly as it had come, leaving me shaky but otherwise fine. “Stress,” I muttered under my breath. “It’s just stress.” It made sense. The last few weeks had been a whirlwind of planning, rebuild

    Javonte The night air was cool. I stood at the edge of Meadowood’s new heart, the fire pit casting warm shadows across the freshly laid foundations. I couldn’t help but let my gaze fall on Serenity. She was standing near a group of witches, her hands moving expressively while she discussed the next day’s plans. Her voice was steady, commanding, but kind—always kind. She had a way of making everyone feel heard, valued, and united. I couldn’t look away. Watching her bridge the gap between packs, covens, and humans with such grace left me in awe. She was the perfect Luna; not just for me but for everyone who followed her. She carried the weight of leadership effortlessly, even when it pressed on her shoulders. She laughed softly at something one of the witches said. I found myself pulled into a memory of the first time I saw her years ago. It was a humid summer day on the college campus—the kind of day where the sun clung stubbornly to your skin. I was heading to the library

    Serenity  The morning light filtered through the curtains. I woke with a smile, my body humming with energy I hadn’t felt in days. The ache in my limbs was gone, the nausea a distant memory. For the first time in what felt like forever, I felt whole. I sat up in bed, blinking and inhaling the crisp morning air. Tay was still asleep beside me, one arm draped protectively across my waist. I couldn’t help but smile at the sight of him—my rock, my peace, my partner.  Slipping out from under his arm, carefully not to disturb him. He needed just as much rest as possible. I stretched, rotated my bones, and marveled at how light my body felt. The events of the past few days had been a whirlwind, but now, for the first time, I could focus on what came next. Meadowood. The name alone brought a surge of bittersweet memories. It had been our home, our sanctuary, and it had been torn apart. But it
