Pearl's pov

I felt my world sink when Alari started crying, I could tell she didn't want to but couldn't help it.

Heck, I wanted to cry but I fought back my tears, this wasn't about me and I knew Alari would jump to comfort me if I did.

I wished there was something I could do to make this go away, I wished I could take it all away and give her a good life.

She deserved it, after all the suffering she took back at Silverlake, she deserved a little brightness in her life.

Now I understood why her parents kept this from her, it would have broken her.

Her cries twisted my heart painfully, I'd never heard her cry. She was the strong one between the two of us, the tough one, and now she was hurting so much she couldn't hold it in anymore.

The King lifted her into his arms, whispering something about someone coming or whatever.

I couldn't hear him, all I could hear was Alari and how much pain she was feeling.

The truth she had always sought wasn't kind, definitely not what she was ex

    Alari's povThe light was blinding and my head was pounding, opening my eyes felt like absolute horror. I groaned, turning away from the light, hoping the other side wasn't as bright. “Good morning love” I heard Damien's voice and groaned, why was he so loud?! “My head hurts” I whispered, moving impossibly close to him, the contact made it a little better. “Sorry love” he said, his voice now lowered as he kissed my forehead and I was grateful for that. “I know something that will help but you have to get up” he whispered, gently stroking my hair and I groaned again, hating that little fact. Why couldn't we just stay like this? This was comfortable, this was nice, this took away the ache. “I know this feels good but it won't take the pain away for good, you have to get up” he said, making me remember that he had access to my mind. “Urg, I hate you” I groaned, feeling him move away from me. “You love me” he chuckled, getting out of bed

    Alari's povDamien left for about 30 minutes to discuss pack business with Lucien after breakfast, instructing us to be ready to hit the road by the time he returned. I spent the time away from him listening to Pearl gush about Mason, loving the smile on her face and love in her eyes as she spoke. “Urg Lari he's perfect, and so gentle and just aaaaaah” she squealed, making me burst out in laughter. The door to Pearl's room burst open and Mason rushed in, looking worried. “I heard a scream, what's wrong?!” He asked, rushing over to the bed where we sat and took her face into his hands. “Are you hurt?” He asked and my heart melted at how tender he was. “No silly, we're okay” Pearl giggled, her smile so wide I worried she would have wrinkles. “Oh okay” he said, kissing her cheek. “I'm sorry for intruding my Queen” he bowed to me and I just waved it off. “The King sent me, it's time to go”

    Damien's povI'd only heard and read about elven women but dammit, Alari was everything I saw in my mind when I imagined them and so much more. How was she so sexy and innocent in the same breathe? Goddess I couldn't wait to have her in my bed, I couldn't wait to worship her body like the damn Goddess she is! The sway of her hips hypnotizing as she returned into the fitting room. I was so hard I was tempted to tell everyone to get the fuck out so I could ravish her like she deserved but I could wait. “You know what I'm going to do to you when we get back right?” I asked, a growl ripping out of me at the thought of her naked body under me, feeling all the pleasures I wanted to give her. “Yes my King, and I can't wait” I swear it felt like she'd whispered the words right into my ears. Her voice so seductive I felt my dick twitch and squirt a little precum. Fuck, this little elf was definitely going to be the end of me! The next hour and a ha

    Alari's povMy breathing was heavy, tiny shivers running down my spine to where Damien and I were intimately connected. I could feel sweat rolling off of our bodies and into the blankets, the aftershocks of my orgasm dying down. “I love you so much” I linked him, knowing my voice was too hoarse to speak, not that I had the energy. “I love you so much” he repeated, making my already speeding heart skip a beat. He pulled out of me, drawing a moan from my chest and plopped beside me, his hand playing with my hair as he heaved. I rolled onto my stomach, squeezing myself at his side and looked at him. He turned his gaze from the ceiling to meet mine, smiling lovingly at me. “Now that you've given me a taste of you, the Goddess will have to rip me off of you” he said and I laughed, playfully slapping his arm. But if we were being honest, I'd hate the Goddess for ripping him off of me. This was a pleas

    Alari's povPearl was right, she was different. There was a radiance about her smile that lit up my world.I couldn't help but smile everytime she talked and laughed, it was the most magical sound. I finally had it all. After losing so much, the Goddess was finally smiling my way. There wasn't a single thing in this world or the next that I wouldn't do for her, she was my world, my entire existence. And help whoever tries to touch a hair on her head!“No one will ever harm her, not while we live” Roman said, standing tall like the Alpha he is. “Alpha, I'm back” Lucien's voice interrupted me and I blinked a few times, shaking off my daze. “How did it go?” I asked and I heard him sigh. “Not bad, considering we knew there'd be questions” he said but it felt like there was something he wasn't saying.“Is that all?” I asked and he sighed.“Elder Rose saw it best to come early” he said and I heard Roman growl. “Fuck” I linked back.

    Alari's povEight days… Sounds like a lot but believe me it's not! It felt more like eight seconds than days. “Again?” Pearl whined, throwing herself backward on the bed. “Please” I gave her my best puppy eyes and she just rolled her eyes. “It's not even the same, according to the King, it's a lot worse. Why are you doing this to yourself? To me?!” she asked, raising her head to look at me. Pearl and I had been hiding in her room, okay, it wasn't really hiding because Damien could find me, it was more like, holding Pearl hostage in her room, and forcing her to describe her shift. Over and over.It was finally my twentieth birthday and of course, the day of my long awaited shift. It was exciting at first, knowing I'd finally get my beast like other shifters but now, I was terrified.This was something I knew would change me completely, and I wasn't sure I was ready for such a big change. I could feel it already, the tingling beneath my skin, the cold at the tip of my fingers. I c

    Damien's pov“Sapphiraaaaaa!” She screamed in pain, breaking my heart into a million pieces. I knew what she was feeling and I wished I could take it away. Her cry turned into a howl and I felt Roman push forward with a force I'd never felt before.“Roman, what are you doing?!” I asked, mad that he would distract me from comforting Alari. “It's not me, it's her” he said, taking over and pushing me to the back. Our shift was swift, having done it maybe a million times before. He stood at attention, watching the last moments of her shift. I watched from the back as she panted, sitting on a bed of snow as snow flakes floated around her. “She's breathtaking” I whispered and Roman growled in agreement, his eyes not once leaving her. She was as white as the snow she sat on, with a bluish glow. Her purple eyes glowing fiercely, intensely and lines curved elegantly on her forehead. It almost looked like a crown. I was too absorbed by my mate to notice the pack, it was when she looked a

    Alari's povHumming, I could hear a sweet voice humming into my ear, and it was familiar, like I'd heard it before. And it was warm, and loving, and soothing and I just wanted to keep my eyes closed and listen. A soft hand brushed against my hair, it's touch warm, pulling a soft moan from my lips. “I see you're enjoying my touch” a smooth, almost musical voice said, breaking me from my serenity.My eyes shot open when I couldn't place the voice, curious to know who it was. I realised I was laying down on the woman's lap, her hand still gently brushing against my hair. I sat up and realised I wasn't in bed with Damien, I don't think I was even on pack grounds. Shit shit shit! Where am I? What is this place?White, was all I could see for as far as my eyes could look. Oh Goddess, was I taken? Am I going to die? Damien! Where is Damien?!“Calm down before you blow a vein” the woman, who I was still yet to look at, laughed. I shot up to my feet, feeling snow beneath my bare toes.

Sometimes days in a row and they just… stopped?” I said, laying on Damien's chest, tucked in comfortably but sleep far from me. “I want to believe that we finally got the last of them, but it can't be that easy” he said, confirming my suspicions.We hadn't had an attack in two weeks, and yes, it's been a very welcome relief, but it kept me on edge. “What if it actually is over? Wouldn't it be a relief to not hold a funeral every other day?” Sapphira said, even though I knew she was worried as well. “That would be too good to be true Sapphira, they're probably gearing up for an even bigger attack. Get our guard down then strike when we least expect it!” Roman growled darkly, the sound sending shivers down my spine, and not the good kind. “We've taken too much loss over the past thirteen years, we can't afford any more. We need to be ready for anything” Damien said, making me sigh and burrow my n

    Ezra at 6 Damien's pov “We need to put together teams of highly skileld trackers and warriors to go out and hunt these things down!” I said, trying to ignore the headache that had been trying to crack skull open. “Wouldn't that be throwing them right into the jaws of our enemy?” Lucien asked, and even though I understood his point, waiting for them to surprise us always ended with someone dying.“People die with every attack, and we never know when the next one will be. If we hunt them down, we may have an advantage” I said, wishing I could some up with a better idea, but failed.“The element of surprise does sound like a good advantage, maybe that would help us locate where they're coming from. It's been four years and we still don't know where these things are coming from. They just show up ready to take us out one by one!” Alari growled, frustrated with the whole situation and I couldn't blame her. We'd been at war with these things this entire time and still knew next to nothi

I didn't want to use the bond to find him because I didn't want it to look like I was spying on him, but three whole hours? Without a single word?What if something happened to him?“We'd know” Sapphira said, making me internally roll my eyes. “Mason's gone too, yet I'm here doing just fine” Pearl said, waving her visibly shaking hand, which was suspicious. She could never lie to me.“You're more nervous than me, and trying to play it cool, which means you know what they're up to” I said, squinting my eyes at her.“What?! No I don't” she said, a little too loud and fast to be telling the truth, her eyes looking everywhere but at me. Lier! “Pearl! Talk! Now!” I growled at her, which made her shrink in her seat.“Let the girl be, they're back” mom said, coming into the kitchen with Ezra trailing behind her, making Pearl sigh heavily and I just squinted my eyes at her in warning, her gulp telling

    Alari's pov “How much longer is this going to TAKE!” I screamed the last word as another contraction wrecked my body, sending waves of unimaginable pain to my mind. “Just a bit more Luna, try to relax” Loren, my nurse, said, making me see red.“Tell me to relax one more time and I'll rip you to shreds!” I growled lowly, feeling my fingers frost over. “It's okay baby, I'm here, focus on me. You're doing great” Damien tried to quell my anger, his hand rubbing up and down my back. I felt my mind lose itself in the intense heaviness on my lower back, sparking a flame of rage within me. “Oh shut up. And get your hands off of me! This is all your fault!” I exploded at him, but a whine slipped from my lips the moment his hands left my body, lifted up in surrender. I had no idea what it was, I just hated him, resented him for putting me through so much pain, but I also needed his touch.It wasn't taking the pain away, the contact just made me warm on the inside, making the pain slightly

I grabbed another book and spun to face them, threatening them with it. “Don't fight, just take a little sip or two” dad said, raising his empty hand up in surrender. I growled at

Why couldn't I open my eyes?!“Baby listen to me, I need you to open your eyes, right now!” Pretty voice is panicking, wonder why?“Open your eyes!” Pretty voice wasn't so pretty when it was giving me a headache.Fucking ouch! My eyes fluttered and I was met with blurry darkness, then green, and they fluttered closed again.I felt like I was being pulled, no, dragged, by my arms and they fucking hurt!“Baby please, wake up!” Sobbing, why was she sobbing?My eyes fluttered again but this time, a blinding white greeted me, and a face, a pretty blurred face shouting over me.“That's it, come on! Fight the darkness, ignore the pain, wake up!” She said, my eyes clearing a little.“M..mom?” Speaking burnt my throat, why was it so dry?Darkness enveloped me again, but I fought it, and opened my eyes again.“Oh, somebody calling her mommy?

Kill all of them!” Helena screeched, making her army spring into action. “Don't you dare leave my side!” Damien growled.“Don't you dare leave my side!” Vivica repeated, cracking her neck.Chaos, that's the best way to explain what was happening. Cal and his group jumped from the trees like samurai, cutting down the creatures they fell on. Stopping the first wave from reaching us.But there was too many, and soon enough, they got past them. Grandpa, who was in the front line, broke the spear he'd been holding in half and drove the two sharp ends through the chests of two beasts that had flung themselves at him. They were brutal, and unforgiving, and one by one, the beasts fell, one after the other but there were too many, and without fail, I found myself driving my crystal clear spear into inky black fur.I didn't get a chance to celebrate my kill because another one launched itself over the dead one, coming straight for me.

She had no idea I knew all about her, how feisty she was, her temper, and all the trouble she and my mother got into. “We just want to know you, and Roan is hogging you to himself!” She sent a glare my grandfather's way before relaxing her gaze when she returned it to me.“And you will, but right now, we must leave” grandpa said with an edge to his voice, leaving very little room for argument but the change is Vivica’s expression to

With his muscled arms on display, I wanted to rip the entire shirt of and feast on him!“You two look great” grandfather said as he turned away from the river to face us.“Thank you” I smiled, watching a little sadness flicker in his eyes. I must be wearing my mother's clothes.“How about a tour of the realm of creation” he said, making me wonder what he meant by realm of creation, I thought this was the Kingdom of the dark elves…?I wanted to ask what he meant but a bubbling feeling of impending doom pushed the questions aside, I needed to warm him about Helena.“Grandpa, we need to talk about something, it's important” I said, trying not to show how scared I actually was. If anything happened to them because of me, I don't think I could live with myself.“What is it?” He frowned, giving me a once over before his eyes settled on mine.“N
