I keep my eyes peeled on the horizon as I notice how the scenery is changing. The warm colours of the sun slowly taking their leave to the cold blue colours of the moon surrounding us as we are driving down dead roads. Everything is calm before the storm. Just then I notice the smell in the air, fire...
“Do you guys smell this?” I ask confused as I stick my head out of the window.
“We must be getting close.” Noel remarks as he is focused on the road ahead.
Crossing over the border my heart is ready to jump out of my chest , beating faster and louder than it ever has before. I notice how cloudy this night has turned with thick clouds covering the moon at any given chance.
“We are getting closer, it’s now not far off.” I hold on to Noel’s arm, who straight pulls over to the side.
“Shall we run the last bit to use it as a surprise moment for our advantage? When we get closer, we might be able to check out what’s going on first before attacking.”
My Wolf is now shimmering in all kinds of silver, gone is the deep pure black shine . The moon is fuelling my body and mind with a strength I have never felt before as the light gleams down on me, breaking through the thick clouds. In an instant I am stood next to my Mother. Preventing Faron from hitting her, blocking his paw by letting it crashing into my shoulder. He struggles backwards as it knocked his confidence immensely, he never seen me coming and it has baffled him as to how I made it there in the first place. The confusion is written all over his face. Liam now looks at me with his mouth wide open and Noel and Tim join me standing our ground.“Wolves! You don’t have to live like this! Stop attacking other fellow Wolves who are just like you fighting for pure existence. We could all live next to each other without the constant need of fights or the wish of taking over other Packs!” I extend my mind link to every single pe
A gust of wind is blowing , swaying the tree branches from side to side with a light rustling of the leaves as they swirl around us. I consider my options... If we fight, we will more than likely lose a good few of our fighters… If we attack first, we might be able to surprise them but non the less they have us outnumbered by two for one and right now it’s a battle of will. Jackson watches me closely and even though our bond is broken I can still feel him so very clearly. He feels lost, disappointed, and hurt. “Don’t kill him, I doubt he will do anything to wound any of us.” I answer after a short period of silence. Out of a sudden we can hear an absolute uproar of howls from wolves in the woods. “Here they come, get ready!” Noel warns with a slight tremble in his voice. And just like he had predicted another wave of wolves are heading our way. I take a deep breath while I hear Zain howl alerting our pack of the upcoming
I refocus on the Alpha who is closing in once again preparing for yet another attack. “Why did you take Jackson when he was little?” I question him via the mind link. He shakes his head not wanting to let me in. I snap towards him, showing him that I am angry. Liam holds Rose off my back even though she is a handful by the look of things. My shoulder hurts but I brush it aside, the moment I show I am hurt I am an easy target. Before the alpha gets a chance to attack, I get my own on him as I quickly turn the other way and instead of jumping, which is such a usual way for us wolves I slide towards him scratching along his body with my claws digging deep into his flesh. He groans loudly under the pain. It has wolves turn their heads and some of the fights slow down. Some of his wolves who are not even involved in the current fights are running for the hills. “You ruin everything. I will kill you even if it’s the last thing I do.” The alph
I tremble in Resentment. His words, his disgusting way of thinking. No wonder that I always thought he smells. He is rotten through and through and it not only shines through but creates this unpleasant smell too.Fuelled by the anger I run towards him and only in the last second, I can stop myself as I believe that’s just what he wanted, a stupid attack so he can inflict a wound on me where I will not recover as quickly as I have been so far.Instead, he now makes the move towards me in the hope he can lure me out but I have seen through it. He hits towards me with his left paw, which I only just about manage to dodge. And straight after he tries to bite into my neck. Quick thinking… with my tail I manage to hit against his leg. Making him trip over as it was his weight baring leg I hit.He falls crashing to the ground with a big bang.A loud murmur going around as he pulls himself back together agai
Rose is on the ground, tears filling her eyes as she is in full denial what has just happened.I stand there looking around me as Zain starts howling and everyone around joins in, celebrating the death of the Alpha.I don’t join in as for me a Death should not be celebrated but I am happy it is finally over. Turning around walking away from the colossal mountain of lifeless Alpha refocus on everyone around me. Now the pain in my leg is almost unbearable. Limping I arrive next to Noel who is just helping Liam to get back up.“Hey you, Stranger.” Noel exhales with a smile on his face as I bump into him with my shoulder. Leaning into him just for a moment before I look at Liam.“Are you okay? We would have never made it here without you.” I try to sound upbeat and sincere as I thank him.“I am sorry it came to this. Even more sorry about your Father. I am sorry I couldn’t prevent this but I had no clue He even
“This is all so confusing. Why me?” I question as her smile grows.“Because every Kingdom needs a powerful Female Luna and you my Dear represent exactly that. Strong, powerful, clever as well as courageous and confident. Your Grandfather was a Demigod, he just never learned that part of himself, he knew he had ancient blood but never figured out why.” She explains.“It’s so much to take on board, considering the pain I have inflicted on my Family. Are you able to bring my Father back?” I realise it’s a stupid question as I try to choke back the tears.“No, I am not able to bring him back to you, but find peace knowing this... He is very proud of you and he will always watch over you.” She pulls me in for a tight hug as she can feel how I struggle. She wipes away my tears.“You got so much good ahead of you, don’t let anything hold you back. Be amazing, I know you will do
Arriving at the top of the stairs, I stand at my Parents’ bedroom door and pictures flood my mind… how we loved to jump on them on a Sunday morning, first thing in the morning… and the snowball fights we had in the winter…the laughter and happiness we was allowed to experience. I place my hand on the door trying to calm myself down before I lightly push the door.He is laid there, peaceful, and still. I walk closer but can’t even see where I am going because of the tears. Pulling the chair from the corner right next to his bed so I can sit down calmly. For a moment , I avoid looking at him and just take in how silent the room is, but my eyes come to rest on him, looking at his chest, hoping there is some kind of movement and it was all just a bad dream. Still in denial… I came back to save them, not to watch my very own father to be killed.Careful I grab for his hand but he already feels cold and foreign, not at all how I
“So, tell me now, what’s been going on? We are all very eager to hear.” Zain sit down on the Kitchen bar opposite me and Mom. She let’s me go and sits herself next to me on a chair. Aaron joins Zain on the other side.“Not wasting anytime, are you?” I squint my eyes at him in an attempt of being sarcastic.“Nope.” He shakes his head then smiles at me widely.“Where do I even start?” I feel a little sick thinking back to everything happened. Lifting my right-hand stroking over my neck where Jacksons mark is placed without even thinking about it and it makes me wince.“Oh Boys, don’t be like this. Give her a moment to breathe. Let me make you a nice cup of hot chocolate. Take your time, we are always here for you.” Mom places her hand on my shoulder before she heads off making the drink.There is just so much that has happened, thin
The Kitchen is quiet only a hand full of Maidens who I have seen before are now present. They are sitting at a table with some snacks. Usually, the table had always been full of food, ready for everyone working in and around the castle to take. The chatter stops as I enter the room and all eyes are on me, expectant but with a look of fear.“Hello” I say quietly before walking towards the five Ladies sitting around the table.A young Lady with light brown Hair, petite in size starts to speak as I take a chair to join them.“Many of the Kings slaves have left the Village in fear as soon as the Pack bond broke. There are not many of us left to keep the Kitchen running. We don’t even have a cook to make the meals. We were not sure what to actually do.” Her voice getting smaller towards the end as she looks down on the table.“But you are here. All five of you. If you are willing to work with me, we will prepar
Hello everyone, i thought i give you a quick update. This book will continue shortly! Won't be daily updates but it certanly will carry one.

“I want to reshape everything Faron has built, but I need your help. There won’t be the separation anymore between guards and fighters, instead we will have warriors. No two class between them anymore, everyone fighting for the same, the safety for our Pack. We will come out of this stronger than ever. Joseph , I would like you to be leading the training for everyone. The Wall needs to be taken down, if you could over see this.” Looking between Liam and Joseph who is slightly taken a back by my announcement of taking the wall down, I turn my attention purely towards Liam. “Liam, I would like you to be our Beta. I need your insight and knowledge as well as your loyalty. I hope you will agree that you are both an absolute asset to this pack and it would be sad to see either of you two leave.” Expectant I am awaiting eager on a reply from Liam agreeing with me but he stays still. “Yes, my alpha. We will get on the job r
The Castle is the same, it’s me who changed. Our lives are now going to be different, seeing everything through different eyes.Noel opens the car door, holding out his hand for me. Not going to lie but my legs are feeling like jelly as I step out of the Car. Some of the Guards are stood at the entrance welcoming us home, with a nod I recognise his effort.The Hall now certainly seems so much bigger than I could remember it and the sheer weight on my shoulders knowing that all the decisions are on me. The young Girls who Faron used for his amusement are all stood in the Hall in a small puddle, whispering as we enter.All eyes are on us as they are uncertain how to react.A quick look over to Noel, who is stood right behind me, gives me the confidence to speak up.“King Faron is now gone. He won’t be returning so your services are no longer needed. However, if you wish you can still work in the castle, y
I am sorry that I let you all wait to long for the story to continue. I had to write on another story and needed to take some time off due to the summer holidays, so I could spend time with my little girls while they had been off school, but I will return with more updates from November the 1st! I have already started to write a few chapters and am uploading them as we speak ready for daily updates to resume soon. Thank you so much for the continued support, it really means so much to me and my family!
We are the last ones to walk down the long white path. At the end a big Coffin One half of it is opened. They have extra built him a little stage, put drapes around the corners with white and grey organza lovingly draped around it. With big flower stands. I swallow hard. Not wanting to admit that it is his final goodbye. Up until now I managed to shield myself from the enormous pain and kept everything locked away. I don’t even hear what the Speaker is saying, nor when Aaron or Zain get up to speak and when they present their beautiful speeches they have prepared. I barely manage to look up but when I did, I could see Tim, Rasmus, Miller and Liam, staring in my direction. Their faces sad and full of emotions. Everyone is now turning to me and I jump a little as I realise that absolutely everyone’s eyes are on me. I breathe in sharply taking steps towards the Coffin. Seeing him there makes me realise how I have tried to avoid this situation. I didn’t even help to plan
A part of me wants to hold him up. Tell him, it’s okay. You can make wrong decisions and it would still work out. The other Part of me feels that it’s the way to go… We just wasn’t meant to be, maybe if we had met under different circumstances, we would have made it and we could have been happy together. If Faron had never entered his life, If He had grown up somewhere loved with his parents without all the lies… the what if’s take over all my thoughts as I stand there looking into the dark of the Forest. I don’t even notice for how long I was stood there, imagining how different our lives could have been. The strange feeling is still very prominent. When I turn around Noel is stood there looking at me and I am unsure whether I should go to him or walk away. I know its nothing good because he never looked at me like this before. The feeling is laying heavy over us and I am reluctant to accept it. “I didn’t want to do this to you. I know how hard it ha
“Yeah, I agree with Zara, Rose is all down to you Mom. What ever you want to do, we will support you and stand behind you. Fully and no questions asked. Gemma, I am not sure… it’s your Mate’s wife so not certain what you think is reasonable. Again, I help where I can obviously.” Zain looks between me and our Mother. “ Let’s get this straight - Jackson is my Rejected mate, after I talked to him yesterday it became apparent that really, I didn’t want him anymore. There was no feelings left from me, the bond has dissolved fully, He is a free wolf like he always wanted. I have offered him to stay here or if he wants to return to the Castle, he is welcome there too.” I point out as I grab for Noel’s hand who is looking rather confused at me. “Do I understand this right? You are not thinking of going back to the Castle, are you?” He shakes his head in disbelieve. “Yes, my plan is to go back to the Castle and I thought you
We lay there catching our breath for a good few minutes before either of us even thinks about moving and even though I hurt after fights this is just a different kind of ache you find yourself in. Muscles you don’t usually feel are now aching. Especially between my legs. I smile as I stare at the bedroom ceiling when Noel’s head pop’s up next to me and he rests his head on his shoulder stroking over my skin with his other hand. I lean my head to the side to meet his gaze on me. Without words we appreciate each other’s company, absolute silence, and a bit of feeling bliss in the air. “I am sorry I marked you, but it just felt so right in the heat of the moment.” I stutter with embarrassment as my cheeks heat up again. “You won’t hear me complain.” He lightly traces over his mark on his neck with a smile. My Tummy starts to rumble so we decide to get our clothes back on but just as I try to pull my underwear back on, he grabs me from behind kissi
