"Hey, Maddie." Selene greets her friend. "Oi, lass." The witch greets with a smile."Well, I see you brought yer own audience!" Selene's family and mates insisted on coming with her. "Off with all ye. Yer girl has to learn on her own! That includes ye two, lovers boys!"
Toby and Liam's shoulders sag in defeat. They grumble as they kiss Selene before heading to the packhouse. Her family follows after the boys with a parting smile at their little princess.
"Ye ready lass? I heard that ye mated with Jones. That means yer powers should be just under the surface." Maddie throws a bag on the ground, pulling out various herbs and obstacles. "Actually, Maddie, I know what one of my gifts is. Grace visited me in my dreams and has been guiding me. She said I had distortion and past vision? Selene doesn't notice Maddie's flabbergast expression. "Ye m
I hope you are enjoying this crazy adventure as much as I love writing it. Tell me your thoughts! What do you think about the reveal that Jones is Selene's mate. If you love the story, leave some gems.
"Sis! Where are you headed?" Mathias's voice booms behind her. Selene turns to wave at her approaching brother. He catches up near the forest line with a giant smile. "Just headed for a run before Jo comes." "I'm joining!" Mathias says excitedly, beginning to strip out of his clothes. "Umm...sure.." Selene reluctantly agrees. She steps behind a tree to take off her clothes, stuffing them in a bag and hanging it on a nearby branch. "Let's do it, Feather!"Selene signals her wolf. Feather doesn't need to be told twice, quickly shifting. Mathias's wolf, Titus, takes off when he sees them."Come on, sis! Let's race!"Mathias yells through the mind link.
"My Lord! Here are the numbers from last quarter." Jones's guard Edgar slaps papers down the desk. " Have the Blood Bags arrived?""Yes, my Lord, although some are getting emotionally attached. Also your usual wants to offer her services. I can fetch her." Edgar watches his Alpha, awaiting his reply. "Tell her I no longer need her services." Jones isn't sure he should announce he mated with Selene. She was Luke's mate, and it may cause chaos throughout the nest, particularly with the females, if two elite vampires are coupled to the same female. Although would that be so bad? It's not like vampires don't share mates. Jones shakes the thoughts out. " Very well. I think the Blood Bags have outlived their use; kill them all."Edgar nods. "Yes, My Lord. Even your personal bag?" "Especially her!" Jones growls. Serves that bitch right for trying to seduce him away from Selene. The only blood he would need is his hybrid's "I'm going to be away for the rest of the evening.""Ye
Voices seep into Selene's dreams, drawing her to open her eyes. She is in her bed alone, the voices coming from the foot of her bed. She stirs, rubbing the sleep from her eyes. "Good morning," she greets. "Good morning, love," Liam smirks. She reaches for him, and he responds, climbing in next to her. "Sleep well, doll?" Jones moves to the other side, kissing her forehead. " Yea, what were you talking about?" Selene buries her nose in the beta's neck, breathing in his alluring chocolate and campfire scent. "Everything," Liam replies. He lifts her chin to meet her eyes. "I'm not going to lie, love. Toby and I don't fancy the idea of sharing you. Now you have two mates-vampires no less, that we have to share. However... we want you happy, princess. If Lord Jones and Luke make you happy, Toby and I will try.""All of this mate bond stuff is confusing, and I'm still trying to understand how I got a fourth mate when I had three, but I want to see where it goes." Jones laughs, lift
A polite knock on the door interrupts Selene. "One minute!" she yells, pulling a robe over her body. She opens the door, and an embarrassed-looking Diana greets her. "Are you decent?" The young Luna asks. "I'm sorry about earlier, Selene. I should have knocked. " Diana is mortified. She knew her new sister-in-law had several mates, but she never anticipated walking in on an orgy. Selene giggles. "Relax. I'm not upset." Diana smiles. "I know. There are just some things I don't want burning into my memories." Diana perches against the dresser. "Well, this is overdue. We need proper bonding time. Shall we shop for baby clothes or perhaps hit the town café? What are you in the mood for?" "Baby shopping?" "Yes, my treat. I want to spoil my niece." Diana pats Selene's stomach.
The witch smiles at the image in her looking glass. The vampire alpha and the faerie queen are consumed with distrust and hate. The witch didn't have to do much to cause this rift; she only planted the seeds of doubt on Jones and Esther. When the faerie queen discovered Selene's mating to Jones, the seed exploded, creating a whirlwind of dark energy within the witch. The vampire alpha was easier prey than Esther, his doubt and hate for the faeries were easy to feed. Cleo cackles at Selene's feeble attempt to stop their violent quarrel while the Pack Luna's voice is rendered useless. The grin on Cleo's face widens-the spell was going better than she imagined. Selene thought she could outsmart her by mating with Jones, but alas, Cleo always wins. She had to hand it to the little hybrid, she was quite the formidable foe. Cleo took one of Selene's mates and her friend, hoping to incapacitate her abilities. When they proved fruitless, she cast an enchantment to sow doubt about Lo
Selene, you can't escape me! A haunting voice rings out into the pitch dark. A cackle follows the voice. Selene tried to adjust her eyes to the blackness, but all she could feel was heavy, dark energy. She can feel the tendrils of the dark magic lick her ankle, slowly climbing up her legs. "No!" Selene screams, white light shooting out of her. A tan wolf appears from the darkness. Selene, it's me! Focus on me! Imagine we are running in the woods behind home, our mates following behind... Feather's gold eyes lock on Selene, sending a calming aura through. The dark magic wasn't about to give up quickly, as it spasmed away from the hybrid and began clumping together, rising like a wave. "Selene! Don't! If the magic touches you, it will taint us-our pup! Feather growls in a warning. A strong wind begins to swirl around Selene and Feather. Selene is lifted off her feet and churned around in the air.
Selene feels panic rise. She taps her belly and feels a flash of fear for her pup. Suddenly, a sharp pain in her stomach forms, causing the hybrid to double over from the pain. A doctor and nurse block her view. Tears begin to flow down her cheeks as she hears the doctor. "The pup is in distress." A cold set of hands touch her shoulder, and she feels calm. A male voice mumbles something next to her, but it sounds like white noise. "Get them out of here! She only needs one mate at the moment!" The nurse yells at someone out of her vision. Her teary eyes roll to the side, and she sees Jones. He kisses her knuckles. "Selene? If you can hear this mind link, come back, doll. Your-our baby, she is in distress. She needs her mum Selene. I need you. Luke needs you. Hell, everyone needs you."Jones's deep voice flows through her head. She leans into his touch.
"Lord Jones! You're back!" A beautiful platinum blonde vampiress runs up to the group. "Who is this delectable creature?" Red eyes fall on Selene's neck, and the female licks her lips. Growls threaten the vampiress while Jones pulls Selene in his arms. "My mate." The vampiress's face breaks into a smile. "Of course she is! I knew you would always get a gorgeous one." Her cold eyes turn to Selene, and she steps closer. "Hello, lass. My name is Veronica, and I am the third in demand here." Veronica reaches for Selene's hand, but Jones slaps it away. "No vampire is to touch her. She is mine." Veronica backs away, bowing to the vampire alpha in submission. Her eyes shift to the twin wolves. " Are they her guards?" "No., Veronica, this is Beta Liam and Delta Toby. They are also Selene's mates." He sa
