I wake up to the bed moving slightly, opening up my eyes I see Asher rubbing his eyes but still in the same suit as last night. I was a little too disoriented to really comprehend what was happening, but when he looks down and spots that I’m awake, he leans back down.

“It’s okay mi amour, I have some things I need to attend to this morning, go back to sleep.” He says stroking my hair with his hand, I watch him for a second before listening and closing my eyes once again.

I feel him place a kiss on my head before the sounds of footsteps and the door opening and closing fills the room, I knew this meant he’d left so I attempted to go back to sleep. But the longer I wound lay there, the more sleep felt distant and subsequently, never came.

I open up my eyes and turn to the window, the sky was still pretty dark with the sun slowly beginning to rise telling me it was still quite early in the morning. What things would Asher need to do at this time of the morning? I sit up straight doing a

    I headed straight to my room after shouting at Asher, I still didn’t know what to make of the situation that just occurred. I understand that he didn’t actually do anything to those men, but what if I hadn’t have shown up and stopped it, I know he wouldn’t think twice about killing those men.But that wasn’t the part which was making me more upset, it was the fact he was doing it because of what the men tried to do to me. Yes, he’s just looking out for me and of course, I wanted those men to receive some kind of punishment for what they did, but not death! What if he had gone through with it, would all of those people believe it was something I wanted to happen?To put those thoughts at the back of my mind, I head to my wardrobe taking out some decent clothes because the choice I had made in a rush, was not a good one. My hair was also turning into a disaster, so after a couple of minutes of brushing, I looked much more presentable. But once I leave the bathroom when I was all done, I

    Waking up beside Asher felt good, it had to be one of the nicest sleeps I’ve had in a long time. Since everything I was forced to endure back home, I always felt lost and scared when I would wake up alone. But when I awoke today, the feeling of belonging engulfed my entire being and I felt free in a sense.Asher would normally, leave to get some important work done but today he didn’t. We woke up around lunchtime where he told me there would be no point starting work late, so he gave himself a day off to spend it with me. Asher and I actually hadn’t spent a day together since I arrived here, he always has to leave to get whatever work done. So, when he told me he’d be able to stay with me, I got extremely excited.We agreed that after we both ate, he would give me an overdue tour of the entire pack. I had been hoping somebody would show me around so next time I was alone, I would know the great spots to sit and have a peaceful time with myself.It was also the first time I’ve eaten so

    After even more hours of organising, I had finally put all of the years' worth of papers away. His office looked so much neater and workable, only a few mini paper cuts as battle wounds but we were smooth sailing. I close the filing cabinet as the office door knocks twice and opens up, Cameron and Becky walking into the office with smiles on their faces but I got a feeling from them, something was on their minds.“What happened in here, I can see your desk and the floor?!” Cameron asks gobsmacked in a sense looking around, I just smile walking closer to Asher and his desk before Becky runs at full speed over to me engulfing me in a hug.“It’s great to see you better and not in excruciating pain.” She asks squeezing me so tightly that she cut off my air for a second, but I was soon released where she takes a step back looking at me. “It’s also amazing that we no longer have to hide things from you, I see you’re not running for the hills after learning about werewolves.” She smiles whic

    Asher and I walk out first, he held tightly onto my hand as though he was worried, I was about to make a run for it. But that thought didn’t cross my mind even once, I wanted to see these people which everyone hates so much and who might also hate me before they know me. Becky and Cameron walked behind us, none of us daring to utter a word from the anticipation from what these people may want.I was unsure if they had given a reason for their arrival, let’s hope it’s not to declare that Becky must leave now she’s in a pack with a human for Luna.We soon arrive in the lobby area of the pack house, two older looking people standing by one of the sofas looking around the walls. By the looks on their faces, I knew the walls and the many features around were the topic of their conversation. But they soon look over and spot us, their eyes instantly going to me as I held Asher’s hand.“Good evening, Mr and Mrs Warren.” Asher says making us come to a stop right in front of them, they both tur

    Waking up today in an unfamiliar environment was vastly different to what I was used to. Initially, when I woke up, I was a little confused and scared that I had somehow been kidnapped…. again. But when Asher walked in from the bathroom with a smile on his face, I remember that I had agreed to move in with him.I must say one thing, his house is one of the nicest I have ever seen in all of my life. When I first arrived here, I thought the pack house was gigantic, but that does not compare to the size of the house I’m currently sitting in! I was amazed at the sheer beauty of the place, Asher told me once he took the role as Alpha, he designed every last detail of the house which he will live in for the rest of his life. The number of rooms it has also blew me away, he told me it has nine bedrooms, ten bathrooms, a ballroom, dinner hall and three offices! How can one person use all of them?!I showered in the en-suite bathroom which was double the size of the bathroom I had been using,

    In no time at all, Asher and I left his house begin our walk a little way down the road to Cameron and Becky’s. Asher explained as Cameron is the Beta, he also has a pretty nice house, but he was sure to remind me, his house was still the biggest in the pack. I couldn’t help but laugh at this, he seems to be very proud of that fact.As we walk hand in hand through the woods, I couldn’t wipe the smile off my lips. For the first time in months, I was genuinely happy. When I was on the trip with the guys, there were many happy moments that I’ll treasure for the rest of my life, but I still couldn’t shake the sad feeling. I knew deep down that the trip was only a little break from the chaos and pain, after it was finished, I would be forced back home where all of the reminders of what had happened would be right in front of me.But now I’m here and have learnt why, I know this is a complete fresh start where nobody knows what happened in my past. None of them will feel pity towards me as

    We soon enter the bustling town; it seems as though this town is always busy any time of the year. When I came with the guys before, we had to wait in a line outside of a shop just to be able to go into the shop! Tanya wouldn’t have any of it when we told her to come back, so all four of us were made to wait while she fantasised over what she was going to buy. But annoyingly, she left the store with nothing! Apparently, nothing was calling to her, so she left! That has been the only time I have wanted to physically assault someone.Asher’s arm was still draped around my shoulders as we begin to weave through people, Becky seeming to have the best time looking in all of the shop windows.“Where to first?” She asks looking around like a child in a sweet shop, this only proving how similar her, and Tanya really are, let’s hope she doesn’t also make us wait outside of a shop for hours!“The place the purpose of the trip was, the post office.” Asher tells her in a duh tone slightly, I smil

    I stare at him for what felt like a lifetime, he stood with his hands in his pockets looking around the built-up town. This didn’t surprise me, he was always the same, a carefree guy who would rather people watch than stare at his phone. Apparently, you see more when you just look up from the device than any website or video the internet world has to offer! Yes, he’s one of those people. The last time I saw him was over a year ago, he and his girlfriend Sharon had left to go travelling the world. They arguably got that idea from me and Tanya, but that’s neither here nor there.Connor and I have always been close friends, he is also from Boscastle and after Tanya and I moved to London, he used the excuse that he didn’t want to leave two defenceless women all alone in London to make his exit. I didn’t buy his excuse for even a second, he wanted out of that small village more than anyone. The day he showed up at our door, he thanked me for giving him the opening to leave before he rented

    A week soon flies by after the war, my days being anything but relaxing. The first day was spent with me being checked over by a doctor. No matter how many times I would tell Asher that I was fine, he insisted that a doctor check me over just in case I had been nipped by a vampire and just didn’t know it! Yes, I know how that sounds but he wouldn’t have any of it.Once the doctor found that I was okay, like I had repeatedly told Asher, I spent the next day speaking with the pack members. They were all overjoyed and offered me kind words and hugs for saving them, I smiled thanking them but also reminding everyone I had not been fighting alone. They had all of the fighters and Thomas to thank also, which everyone was more than happy to do.Speaking of the fighters, none of our men were killed and only one had been injured but not severely. I visited him in the hospital where he was still up and about, due to make a full recovery.The celebrations had not only been within our pack, many

    Within a matter of ten minutes, all of the woman and children were safely hiding in the basement, while I stood with Thomas and all of the fighters waiting for my call. Going into this, I thought I would be absolutely, terrified standing here about to set off but to not even have Asher beside me. But perhaps it was because I knew what I was doing or, they had taken Asher from me, but I was more than ready to make each and every one of those disgusting monsters pay for everything they had done to so many people.Thomas walks over to me with that same worried look on his lips, he wasn’t in armour as he was one of the fighters which will be in wolf form to take on more of these beasts.“You look ready.” He smiles coming to a stop right in front of me, I only nod my head staring back into the forest a sea of trees filling my view, somewhere in there was Asher being forced to watch all of this unfold.I couldn’t mind-link him to even ask if he was okay, it was as though there was something

    Five weeks later.It has been weeks since Asher and I arrived back after visiting my parents, each day has been busier than the last. Every morning, I have woken up at 4am to begin my training with Cameron, those training sessions lasting until 7am. When I went into this whole training with Cameron, I was under the impression that he’d be his jokey self and we’d have a great time. Yes, he does have his moments in between exercise where he makes a joke, but most of the time, he’s serious.~~Cameron stood in front of me with his claws extended, we had just done an exercise with swords as the vampires are known to use them, but he wanted me to be prepared for everything, so now he was using hand to hand combat.I was able to block his first hits, we had also worked so hard on my speed, so I’d be able to dodge any of the enemies blows to my body. I was able to grab his arm as spin him around, but when he turns to face me, his claw cuts into my arm where a long cut sat.“Ouch.” I say taki

    We were soon woken up by my mother telling us dinner was ready, but both me and Asher had a solid few hours of sleep which will get us through the long drive home. I know I never told my dad that I wanted my mothers famous Cumberland Pie, but boy have I missed this! My mother has been making this ever since I was little, it’s my favourite dish of hers. Even Asher seemed to really enjoy it, but deep in his mind, I knew he couldn’t stop thinking about Justin and the safety of the pack. He would engage in conversation whenever he was spoken to, that same smile on his lips answering whatever question my mother would ask. To his delight, the time had come for us to head home and deal with Justin.We were stood outside of our house with my parents, my mum getting teary eyed as she watched Asher sort the car to leave. I knew I should stay longer as I had been away for months, but I couldn’t just abandon the pack at a time like this.“Are we not going to see you again for another six months?

    The awkward tension which lingered in the air was thick, neither men uttered a word and I didn’t know what I could say to make this situation better. Asher and my dad were refusing to break eye contact, to show the other that they weren’t scared and definitely, wouldn’t be the first to back down.“I’m curious if you’ve only shacked up with my daughter because you really want to be with her or, it’s just yours and fathers way of getting back at me.” My dad says crossing his arms over his chest, but I only roll my eyes at his stupid comment while Asher, let’s out a low growl in his direction.“I’d watch your mouth Fawcett, you may be my mates father, but I will still rip you to shreds given the opportunity.” Asher growls out looking my dad in the eyes, I step forward taking his arm in hopes he wouldn’t begin to swing for my father.“Well, I guess I’m not understanding, I leave your town because of disagreements and now you’re suddenly, mated to my daughter. Tell me how that makes sense.

    I was soon sent upstairs to pack a bag for the trip, I knew we were only going for one night, so I didn’t have to pack much. I wasn’t giving myself much time to think about what was happening, I was actually going back home to see my parents after all of this time. Yes, we have to sit down and ask my dad questions I never thought he knew anything about, but just to see them will be so lovely.But there was also a little issue I had found, what if my mother asks where I have been and won’t let me leave? What if Tanya, has returned home and I run into her? Am I going to have to lie to them? What if they ask to return with us, it’s much too dangerous?!I zip up the bag after packing my own things and Asher’s, I made sure to ask him what he wanted me to pack beforehand. He was downstairs talking with Thomas and Cameron, making sure they were fully equipped to run the pack whilst he isn’t here. But also, telling them the conversation we had goes no further and that includes Becky.I mean t

    I stare down at the photo still at a loss, my dad and Asher’s were best friends? Why did I never know this before? I knew my dad was in the army for a while but after I was born, he stepped back and started working as a mechanic so he would be closer to home to help my mum raise me. But I had no idea he came all the way out here! That must mean my dad also knows about werewolves, so when my mother used to tell me the story about The Unknown Luna A, did he know what she meant? Did he ever tell her?!“Are you sure it’s your father?” Thomas asks picking up the photo while I get to my feet to pace, but when I turn to look at him raising my eyebrow, he understands. “I guess now that I’m really looking at his face, you do have some similarities.” He shrugs placing the photo on the table once again, but I still couldn’t understand what any of this meant.“Why does my father have anything to do with this situation, Spencer said this will all point to us finding out who this spy was, but it’s

    Thomas and I soon arrive back home, I didn’t fully understand how I was going to be able to explain this all to Asher. I was fully lost myself on what all of this meant, I went to see Patricia in hopes she would offer me more insight, but she only answered questions I didn’t even know I needed answers to.Thomas suggested we head in Asher’s home office, that and his pack house office were two of the most secure places. We don’t need the spy for the vampires coming around and seeing everything we had, they’ll find us when we want them to find us.Asher had a mini table beside his desk, I suppose it was if he had to have meetings with more than one person, they could all sit around the table together. I sit at the table pulling the file out into the open, thankfully, none of the papers have fallen out on our journey here. Thomas pulls out the chair beside me with a smile, but when I place the necklace down on the table, he shuffles away a little.“You really don’t like that thing do you

    The safe was full with a huge folder, what seemed to be jewellery and a type of liquid in a bottle looking back at me. I turn back towards Thomas in hopes he knew what any of these things were, but when he gives me the same look I had on my face, I see we were both at a loss.I reach forward and pick up the first item, it was a long silver necklace which wrapped around my hand once I had picked it up. Thomas backs up even more once he saw, I guess he was very much scared of that silver touching him. But now it was out of the safe, I could look and take in all of the many details. The pendant was of a man with a beard his eyes closed but a crown on his head, whatever this necklaces purpose was, it seems expensive. But also, I felt as though I knew this from somewhere yet, I still have no idea where from.I unwrap the necklace from my hand and gently placed down on the hardwood flooring, the light from the window causing it to sparkle and glisten. I now reach for the white liquid in a c
