GIDIAN'S POVNature stood still, but the battle between goodand evil was in full effect.Wolves clashed against wolves and wolves clashedagainst witches.I watched as my warriors battled the rogues, itseemed like they were winning, but it was those damn witches that were givingus hell."Alpha, we need to focus on taking out thewitches, they are hexing the warriors!" Felix my zeta declared.A Zeta is the war General of a pack. They are theones who lead a pack into war. Usually, there's only one, but due to my pack'ssize, I currently have two and one in training. Timothy is back at the packmansion, so I have Duncan here with me, Felix is his wolf.Felix was right. I looked over to my warriors andI saw that a few of their eyes were cloud white, the witches were castingblinding spells."Felix, you take the one closest to thehouse," I ordered."Yes, Alpha." I watched as he pummeledhis way over to the sneaky bitch, who was heading towards the house."Bruto," I said to Allen's wo
"JINX, FELIX...STOP!"Felix stopped and he too saw the other witcheslurking at the outline."Jinx, turn back, it's a trap!""A trap?" He asked as his pace slowed.The witch closest to him, pointed to him as she started to mumble a spell. Jinxfell to the ground and let out a painful shriek.By now all the rogues were dead and I still had 19warriors left.The leader emerged from the north end of the woods."You think you can beat us Alpha?" She giggled.I growled at her, Jinx was still shrieking andshaking with pain on the ground.I couldn't bear to see my beta and best friend inpain. Anger rose inside me like a volcano that was about to erupt. I belted outa loud growl and I focused on my energy within. I imagined the witch's headbeing ripped off, that's the one who had Jinx in pain, suddenly I heard herscreaming in agony, Jinx stopped wailing and staggered to his feet, he made hisway back over to where Felix and I were.Everybody including Felix and Jinx was stunned,they didn
HAZEL'S POVMy eyes were wide in anticipation. My heart wasbeating in my throat, as I watched Gidian lunge at the witch. She just stoodthere, she was out of tricks and spells. She knew it was her end. She closedher eyes ready to accept death.A mysterious cloaked figure stepped from the farend of the woods, she literally gave me the chills. The atmosphere dropped afew degrees. The closer she got to the scene of the fight, the colder the placegot."Guys! Something is happening." I saidto the twins. Talon ran to my side."What is it, Luna?" He asked as helooked out the window.The figure stepped on the battlefield and itlifted its hands and the whole fight froze. Ice took over every wolf's body,except for Gidian."What's happening?" I asked Talon. I waspanicking. I started to hyperventilate. "I'm having a panic attack?"I started to flap my arms around like they were on fire."Luna, I don't know what to do?" Talonran a hand over his brown hair."Get her some water punk," Top
CLEOPATRA'S POV"I'm sorry Cleo, I wanted this date to beperfect," Gerry said while opening the car door. He had an embarrassedlook on his face.It was the fourth time the car broke down since weleft the restaurant. His dark brown eyes shone brightly against the contrast ofhis light blue dress shirt. Gerry rolled up his sleeves past his elbows andpopped the hood. He wiped the sweat from his brows with the back of his hands."Damn! It is hot today!" He sighed.I opened the car door and handed him a kerchief towipe his sweat. "Here you go." He took it from me and smiledslightly. His dimples were two of the most beautiful things I've ever seen.Thoughts of licking them ran through my mind. I didn't even realize that I waswetting my pink, plump lips with my tongue."You make me weak when you do thatPrincess!" My eyes left Gerry's dimples and landed on his eyes, he wascocking an eyebrow at me."Huh, what do you mean?" I questioned."Don't play dumb with me pretty girl, youknow t
??? POVGidian watched as Carson's eyes fought to stayopen. He could sense his best friend's soul drifting away from his body.Gidian and Zander both were crying internally.They have never felt so helpless and hopeless before. The thought of living inthis God-forsaken world without Carson sent a wave of pain through their body.Their heart slammed painfully against their chestevery time they saw Carson gasp to catch his breath.They thought about what would happen If he died.There'd be no one to tell those inappropriate, yethilarious jokes.They'd have no one to talk to about their problems.The thought of them never hearing Carson's laughagain, sent them falling to their knees."Why is this happening Moon Goddess? Pleasetake us instead! Carson doesn't deserve this!" Gidian was angry at theMoon Goddess, he didn't understand why she was allowing this to happen.Zander was sitting helpless at the front ofGidian's mind, watching as the life of his friend was being crushed by th
"Just a little moreHazel!" Zander said.Carson began to thrash on the ground, the oxygenwas being blocked off from his brain. He started to foam at his mouth.Gidian didn't know if they'd get to him before hisbrain becomes damaged. There are just some things not even werewolf healingcould fix."Hazel, we might not get to Carson in timebefore his brain becomes badly damaged," Zander sniffled."What should we do then?""I don't know, but something is telling methat you should get on my back," Gidian answered.Hazel didn't question it, she too had this strangeurge to climb on Gidian's back. She hurried over and swung her legs overGidian's muscular back.It was hard to mount her feet on the huge beast."Are you ok up there?" Gidian asked."Yes, I'm quite comfortable. So what's next?""Just hold on Kitten."Hazel bent in a jockey's position and wrapped herhands around the huge wolf's neck. Her instincts told her to close her eyes andfocus on the heat of the sun. She began to draw
HAZEL'S POV"Why are you guys all on the ground?" Hazelasked in surprise."You are just so amazing Luna." Topherwas the first to stand up.The others slowly followed his lead. Cleopatraimmediately took Carson's hand in hers.Zander ran and knelt beside his unconsciousfriend. "Cleo, what did Declan say?""He said they'll be here as soon aspossible." Cleo began sobbing again. Zander lifted his hand and wipedCleo's tears."It's okay CC, Carson will be ok."She nodded her head and fell into Zander's arms.She began to cry on Zander's chest. I was souncomfortable. Everyone was naked except for Allen and myself.I felt jealousy pull against my heartstring, Iswallowed hard as I watched him comfort her."Easy Luna, I can smell your jealously!"Talon whispered.Oh great, I guess I won't be able to hide myfeelings from these werewolves."Yeah, we all smell it!" Topher added. Irolled my eyes."I am not jealous." I lied."We can also tell when you're lying,Luna," Allen smirked.FUCK! I
Gerry gulped and I saw afew droplets of sweat slide down his forehead.Zander then marched over towards Isis. Declan washolding Carson's head while the blonde woman checked his neck. The three of usfollowed Zander."Isabelle, is he going to be ok?" Theblonde lady looked up at me and Gerry. "It's ok Doctor, Hazel is my mateand the guy is Cleo's mate," Zander explained.Isabelle shot to her feet and jumped in my arms."Luna, it's a pleasure to meet you." Her eyes glossed with tears. Iguess being a Luna is a big deal around these parts."Nice to meet you too Isabelle, but you cancall me Hazel."Zander grunted in disapproval."Ok Hazel and you can call me Izzy." Shesmiled. "And you are?" She asked Gerry."I'm Gerard, but everyone calls me Gerry andyou must be the pack doctor.""Yes, I am. It's nice to meet you Gerry andplease call me Izzy.""Enough pleasantries. Izzy come and fix myBeta, or am I not allowed to call you that." I swore I saw smoke comingfrom Zander's nose and ea
Alfonso led the group through the secret underground passageway beneath the castle. The air suddenly gained a musty, damp smell, the smell of death and decay. Nobody spoke until they reached a grey door hidden in the wall. “This is it, the entrance to the library.” Alfonso whispered.“And you're certain no one will be in there?” Alpha Zander double-checked. He replayed the plan over and over in his head, but something didn't feel right in the pit of his stomach. “Yes I'm sure. Prince Magnus or his guards never come here. They stay in the North and West wing of the castle.” Alfonso exhaled as he pressed the indention in the wall and the door quietly slid open. “Let's go, but be quiet.”Declan was the first person who tried to enter through the door. Zander yanked him back by his collar. “Where the fuck do you think you're going?”“I cannot stay behind Alpha. Maddox and I will go mad if we don't go to her.”“Declan, you can't go,” Lucinda warned. “But she's my mate,” he yelped.“I kn
ANONYMOUS POV"Blink! Blink!" Alpha Zander tried to coax himself. He still seemed to believe his ears had deceived him. Did the queen just say Hazel was with child? He asked himself and his wolf, Gidian answered. "That is undoubtedly what she said. Not that it's impossible, but how come we can't smell our pup inside her?"Zander's fingers stroked the side of his Luna's face, who wasn't moving an inch. "I don't know, but I think Lucinda knows why," Zander replied telepathically to his wolf. The way how Lucinda was staring told him she had some idea of what was going on. Currently, he didn't know what to make of the situation.The other werewolves were thinking the same. Confusion, excitement, and concern were only a few emotions that were swirling around in the air. And also staining the air with an enormous punch was fear. Fear of what this may mean for Luna Hazel. James remembered the first time he smelt his son growing inside Sue-Ling, the she-wolf he was set to marry. A wave of
HAZEL'S POVShe looks like me; I thought, or maybe I look like her. My hair was still dripping wet as I trudged back to the hideout. Maddox dashed off so quickly before I could even get two sentences in. I knew he didn't mean to peep on me, and it was my fault, anyhow. I knew better than to be taking baths in lakes in places that were strange to me. But I was just so irritated and my blood seemed hot, so I had to cool down. I promised myself I'd talk with Declan when I saw him. My footsteps were silent as I hiked up to the others. Lucinda's head fell backward as she laughed, just the way I always do. Her nose was a clone of mine, and her hair, though it was styled in many braids, was the same length as mine, just a bit more kinky. I glared at the woman who left me at birth, my eyes welled with tears. There were so many times I wished I had her around when I was growing up. I quickly blinked back my tears and proceeded toward them. My stomach churned the way Isis was treating her; l
DECLAN'S POVThis was torment, real torture. My wolf and I couldn't help but stare. Like glue, our views were stuck on our Luna bathing in the river. Her waist-length hair was dripping wet and delicately settled over her shoulder. Her rear was to us, and her bodacious backside was making my appendage jerk in need. I would rather not be there anymore. I wanted to go, but Maddox's paws kept creeping forward closer to her. “What are you doing?" I urged my wolf. “Let's go back."“I can't. There's something in the air telling me she is my mate," he explained. I wanted to agree with him since I felt it too. But out of respect and love for my alpha, I had to do the right thing. “But she isn't. She belongs to our Alpha and this is wrong," I told him. This caused him to stop, but not before stepping on a twig. The sound startled Hazel and made her to turn hastily in our direction. She was ringing out the excessive water from her hair. Maddox went into a panic when his eyes engaged with hers
Poor James stood completely frozen in front of his mate. His companions were just as mesmerized by the woman they saw. Her hair was woven into long micro-braids that touched the small of her back. Her Nubian nose was a little different, it had a tiny jewel that glinted on the left side. But the ebony-black skin, the wispy eyelashes, the plump coral lips, and the eyebrows that were always turned up at the inward tips, furrowed, as if judging everything you're doing, were exactly as James remembered. His eyes raked her figure. She seemed more mature, and he liked that. It had been 19 years since he'd seen her, so of course she'd look different. But one thing was for sure: she was even more beautiful than ever. “Lucinda,” James whispered. “Is it really you?” He held his breath and closed his eyes. Lucinda stretched out her fist and ran her palm over his cheek. James gasped for air, leaning into her touch. His frame erupted with sparks at every juncture of his body. “Yes, my love. It i
Hazel grew up watching fairytales on Disney Channel. She puckered her lips and kissed the Frog Prince with Tiana. Just like Belle, she fell in love with the Beast. She and Gabrielle danced with Pocahontas in the wind, and she can't forget when she fought a war with Mulan. Fairytales had always been her thing. So her imagination conjured up what she thought the Fae World would look like; gold, silver, and shimmer everywhere. She even pictured pink talking clouds that tasted like cotton candy. But to her dismay, she wasn't prepared for the truth.The portal vanished with a tremendous cracking sound, like glass being broken, leaving our nine supernatural friends stupefied. There was no wind in the Fae World. Pieces of the sky were falling like dried paint from a wall. “Is this it, Mommy? Is this where you're from?" Tia looked up to a teary-eyed Cedella. Her ghostly tears were the only shimmering detail Hazel saw. Cedella couldn't answer her daughter. The only thing she could do was moa
I DO NOT WRITE FOR A LIVING. I WANT TO MAKE THIS CLEAR. I work 16 hours every day except for Fridays. I work doubles every day because I have a mortgage and bills to pay. I have people who depend on me for survival. I just do not have the time to write. On Fridays I am busy cooking meals to last me throughout the week, doing my laundry, house shopping, running errands, or most importantly, sleeping. For those who can't wait for updates. Then do what I do as a reader, don't start a book that's not completed. I have a life outside of writing. The only reason I'm even writing this right now is because I am at a friend's baby shower and I had to ask this day 3 weeks in advance. Anyone can be upset, frustrated, or angry but I will not tolerate disrespect. If you can't wait, which I do understand, it has been forever since I've updated, but just forget about this book and move on to another book that's completed. No need to act all grimy over here. TF you think you are.
DIMITRI'S POVMy ears kept ringing, tuning out the tautologies of the merman. My bloodlust increased, and my body couldn't fathom what I just learnt. I sunk my fangs into my bottom lip out of anger. “Impossible!” Zander raged. Gidian was reeling at the forefront, ready to rip into someone. Maybe me. And Alpha Zander wasn't even trying to hold him back. “Are you sure?”“Yes. I'm sure of it.” The merman stated. “And what says you two?” Zander asked the witches. “I—I am not certain. The child calls Lucifer uncle, so we thought she was his kin,” Freya let out. “That would explain Zoey's protectiveness of her. Plus the child did seem attached to Zoey,” Prudence wondered out loud. I couldn't take this anymore. I felt the skin on my back parting. My wings only ever came out when I was feral, and, trust me, I was close. “Dimitri. Calm down. We will bring them back,” Julia stated. “You're right.” I calmed down. “We can use the same portal stone to get back into Lucifer's hideout.” “I'm
Dazed and disoriented, Freya studied the white-haired woman who was inching closer to her. Her curvaceous body with her silver hair and milky eyes made her a looker. She was beautiful, but there was something so familiar about the woman, like she'd met her before. Isis paused when she noticed Freya's confused stare. “It is I, child. Isis.”“Wait, what? But you're supposed to be old.” Freya gasped. “That's because she did something bad,” another voice made it through the rubble. Isis's gaze shot to the slender woman, pushing her body up off the ground and dusting the debris off her clothes. “Prudence!” Isis yelped. “Hello, Isis,” Prudence grinned. Tears pooled in her eyes as she pushed past her sister and fell into Isis's arms. “Oh, my child,” Isis cried. “You're alive.”“Yes. I am.”“Wait, I don't understand. How do you look so young and fresh?” Freya wanted to know. “Forget about that and come give me a hug,” Isis declared. Freya rushed and dove into Isis's arms. “I'm so happy
