Charlie PovIt had been a few months since Carmen had departed this world. We had all returned to our homes, Emmett had stayed behind to help Alpha Carlos in his pack based in Rome sentence and deal with what was left of Carmen's rogue army. We had kept our promise and created a royal council with a seat from every section of mystical and magical species represented. We had held the first one this morning and it had gone well despite the Vampire King Nicklaus slight annoyance that Emmett had asked for and won the vote to allow the Rebal Vampire King a vote on the council. It was unlikely he would attend the meetings or even take up his vote but I agreed with my mate, giving him a vote was a sign of respect. Queen Poppy had also agreed it was the right thing and argued with her husband it was just one vote and he had a right to a vote. Once Poppy threw her support behind me and Emmett the other council members agreed and King Nicklaus had reluctantly given in. It was the start of a new
Charlie POVI ran up from the subway dodging large puddles of water and people as I hurried up the street. My coat balanced over my head for some protection from the heavy rain. I dodged through the wooden doorway of O Malleys Irish bar my eyes took a moment to adjust to the dull dingy lighting. I shook the rain water off my clothing and from my loose red hair before hanging up my wet coat and rushing behind the bar."I'm sorry Josh. It's bad outside so everything is moving slower." I apologised as I relieved the tense looking Josh from behind the bar."No worries it's been quiet save the lone stag party in the corner. Sasha will be in by eight for the evening as will Danny" he smiled as he quickly placed a friendly kiss on my cheek before taking off out of the bar and into the rain. I busied myself wiping down the counter then settled into helping Mr Sullivan my regular elderly gentleman with his crossword. I sipped my coffee as we teased out the clues. I was engrossed in the puzzle
Emmett POVI watched her bound up the steps to her front door as she let herself in. I could feel my wolf Titan stir he was drawn to this red haired beauty. She took my breath away. Her eyes shone like emeralds. She had me baffled she appeared human but she had a suggestive aura about her that made me believe there was more to her. When I did approach the bar she had become flustered as I noticed her checking me out, a beautiful blush passed over her cheeks and I felt an urge to reach out and run my finger over her beautiful full lips.I turned from Charlie's building and spotted Rick standing about a block away I walked towards him. He nodded to me"Morning Alpha" he signaled raising his hand and a black town car rounded the corner to where we stood. I sat into the back whilst Rick sat up front with the driver. The car drove back to the plush hotel where we were staying.I walked into my suite to find Adam face down on the bed a bottle of whiskey on the night stand. Some random girl
***Charlie POV***Having spent a few days touring New York with Emmett and juggling shifts at the bar I began to dread the looming day of his departure for some reason.Sasha was sat eating popcorn on our sofa flicking through Netflix"There is something different about you" she smirked.I raised my eyebrow " Oh yea?""Yea" She smirked "Your all starry eyed like a love sick teenager. Your aura has changed"I rolled my eyes "please god do not start with the aura crap" I laughed taking a handful of popcornShe jumped up and pulled a small pack of white cards from her back pocket. "Angel cards let's do a reading" Sasha was jumping up and down."No thank you Sasha I don't believe in that stuff" I sighed. My friend, her mother and grandmother were into all these strange vodoo style mystical stuff. when we were kids it use to scare the crap out of me but as we got older I didn't mind it as much."If you don't believe in it then what do you care?" She sighed fanning the cards on the coffee
*Unknown POV*I sat at my desk having hung up the phone. It seemed I had a huge problem. My daughter Charlie had found herself in a world I had hid her from. Charlie had no idea who she was and what was now going to unfold. I knew the moon goddess was behind this but it didn't make me feel any better. I gave orders for my daughters gaurd Danny to find out more about this Emmett who claimed to be the Pearl Moon Pack Alpha's son. It appeared the spell I had the covens place on my daughter binding her wolf was now under threat. I now knew a war was looming and my daughter was going to be in the middle of it, centuries of hiding the the Celtic Crescent Moon Pack were about to be undone.** Emmett POV ***Keeping my hands off Charlie was impossible on finding out she was a virgin I considered in that moment not taking her virginity but Titan wouldn't allow it and my own heart and desire needed her. I had never felt anything like the passion I felt with her. I burned for her. I had made lov
**Emmett POV*Charlie hung up the phone and I stood listening for a moment to the dead line. Slowly but surely I processed what she told me before attempting to ring her back. Each time the phone rang out. Frustrated I tossed my phone aside and went straight for my fathers office. Titan paced my mind just as distraught as I was. I paused outside the office door before taking a breath and knocking."Enter" Dads voice boomed.He was an older version of me, he was as big and as muscular our hair was the same colour but his was slightly longer in length and hung just above his chin. His desk was littered with paperwork and his lap top was open. He looked up and took me in"Ah Emmett your keen today I hadn't expected you yet" he smiled mistaking my appearance in his office as enthusiasm to learn the ins and outs of being an Alpha to the pack."Dad, can an Alpha were wolf get a human pregnant?" I rushed into my question before I lost my nerve."There have always been rumoured myths of its o
**Alpha Williams POV**"Obviously my Granddaughter Charlie is a werewolf, quite a powerful one at that. She is a pure true descendant of the legendary warrior-werewolf named Laigneach Fáelad. He was said to be the ancestor of a tribe of werewolves who were related to the kings of Ossory in eastern Ireland. Our pack is known as the Celtic Crescent Moon Pack. A few hundred years ago our packs Alpha blood was crossed with the blood of Meabh a mystic white witch which led to a hybrid strength of breed. This created problems as Alpha males in other packs sought out our females to breed with to strengthen their own blood lines. As you know mate bonds are powerful women were taken by force mates fought and blood was shed. Our females numbers reduced and the pack numbers declined and weakened. The Elder council decided the pack should be hidden and our females magically cloaked. Most of our females live as human and mate with male humans watering down our blood line again. ""How could you do
**Emmett POV **I struggled against Adam as he bundled me out of my fathers office and into the pack common room."Adam are you kidding me right now?" I snarled as I turned and kicked the coffee table in anger. The glass centre shattered. Titan was straining against every fiber in my being to break loose and go to Charlie and our pup. Rage filled my being.The door flung open and in marched my mother, without saying much she strode across the room and clipped me on the back of head. Titan bristled but my mother's scent hit our nose ensuring Titan calmed enough not to shift and tear her apart in his rage."What in gods name do you think you are doing?" She snapped. My mother was a kind and gentle Luna, albeit on occasion she could be over baring. She had a fearsome edge that saw many an Alpha cower. She was fierce when it came to her pack and her pups. Even Titan didn't dare cross my mother and her wolf. Before I could answer she continued on "You and Adam will clean this up and then y

Emmett POVThe fog dispersed and I let out a huge sigh of relief when I saw my mate walk towards Carmen and hold her as Daphne raced towards us. The Syphon Twins moved first gathering vials of the potion. As Madame Lux walked towards the fallen old witch. I made my own move and soon I was next to my mate, Jagger howling contentedly in my head as we discreetly checked her for injury. "Here." Jessica said holding out the potion to Charlie. Charlie however shook her head and dropped Carmen back onto the grass. "My blood may seal her away to the earth but someone else can finish her. I'm done with her i have worried and thought about this woman far too much" Charlie replied a cold tone to her voice. It didn't seem like Charlie was scared or upset even about binding the old witch forever there was something else that I couldn't place in my mates emotions. It was like an indifference that was now just rolling off her. She seemed numb in this moment. Taking the potion from Jessica she turn
Charlie Pov. Carmen's spell moved towards me and I dug deep trying to push my own spell back towards her. everyone relied on me and I had to win. I was born for this moment and I was failing. It was then I saw the change in the air as the small slitter appeared next to me and Sasha stepped out. "Hello Charlie." she said. I looked slightly frantic to see if Daphne was seeing this too but we were in a dense fog now and all I could see was the glow of the magic illuminating Carmen and Sasha she looked like herself but different. I knew instantly she was a merage or just a ghost of her former self and my heart lurched slightly. "Nothing can bring back the dead Charlie but it is me or at least my essence." she added seemingly knowing what was in my head. "let go your guilt over my death." She whispered. "tap into every corner of my power and the combined power of everyone who agreed to lend you their strength." she advised me. "They had no choice." I gritted out under the strain of Car
Emmett POVI watched in horror as my mate and sister were now face to face with Carnen and I was helpless. "Charlie." I yelled but she didn't acknowledge me. "I can't link our mate." Titan growled in my head. I made for the circle but King Nicklaus tackled me. "Let me go." I snarled. "The forcefield could kill you now it's not broken anymore. Charlie slipped by with Daphne I don't think you can pass." he reasoned before I could argue. We were hit by a new wave of rogues. "Shit." Danny yelled "they just keep coming." he growled. "I have help." Viola called as more Vampire's joined the fight. "Who are these Vampire's" King Nicklaus growled. "The rebel Kings men." Tristan responded. "But why?" Nicklaus began. "Because Carmen and her witches hurt my daughter." a voice answered. "And its that simple?" Nicklaus looked sceptical. "For me it is." the king responded as Nicklaus nodded and returned to the fight on hand. "Danny, Gideon and I will hold the line around Daphne and Cha
Charlie POV Viola's odd words washed over me. "Did she just say Dad." Soairse asked me in my head as I nodded slightly. "Hello Viola." he replied as around us other Vampire's now fought to keep us inside a safe ring and the Rebal King safe. "I heard you were fighting here with the wolves and Nicklaus Vampire's." he growled. Tristan moved to Viola's side protectively at the sound of the growl. "Back off punny Vampire. The only thing in this world I wouldn't hurt and would lay my life down for is my Princess Viola." he snarled. "Then it appears we share that." Tristan responded as he wrapped a protective arm around her waist. He raised his eyebrow in a suspicious glance. "Where is Sebastian?" he asked as a strange look crossed his face one I could not quite read. "Dead." Tristan snapped as the Vampire Rebel Kings eyes swung to Tristan. "At your hand?" Viola moved slightly between the two glaring males and hung her head. "No father I killed Sebastian he sold me to the witches
Charlie POVHaving eaten and made a crude plan for how this would all go to try get the best tactical advantage.We now had most people gathered on the weird little witches island. It was the perfect scene for a supernatural showdown as it was still bound and hidden by magic meaning it was obscured from human eyes. Adam and Max had returned with the Syphon Twins Jessica and Elizabeth. Having discussed a brief plan with us we finally agreed the best thing to do was bind us all together in the blood spell that would banish Carmen for good. By using all the high ranking shifters and mystical creatures it would be impossible for us to ever be weak again. The witches and the fairies agreed to allow the twins Syphon off a little of their magic too to strenght the spells core and then there was Daphne who held the strange magic from the ancient grimore who would also be happy to lend this new found magic to the twins. This was how we found ourselves all staring at the twins , Madame Lux, Da
Daphne Pov I heard Max leave and I drifted back into a restless sleep. I had no idea why I thought I had come to some place where I could live with the grief and misery but over the last few days a darkness had crept over me. I could hear voices in the distance. "What's wrong with her?" my brother Emmett's voice came through the thin walls of my tent and into the brain fog I was under. "I don't know." my father responded. "I think we should just give her space." Charlie's voice joined the conversation. A small smile played on my lips Charlie was a true Luna and her instincts were strong. "I'll talk to her." she added gently and I knew she was shooing the men away. I heard Charlie unzip my tent slightly before calling me. "Daphne?" She called gently. I didn't move but I knew her wolf sensed I was awake as she crawled into the tent and sat next to me. She silently placed her hand on mine and I felt her Luna touch ease my tense body slightly. "Daphne?" She asked again softly. "What
Max PoV I was delighted to get off site and away from everyone and whilst I was apprehensive about leaving Daphne it was a welcome break from her overwhelming misery that flooded our bond. She barely looked up from the sleeping bag she lay on when I told her I was leaving. I was tempted to tell her to pull herself together but I bit my tongue I didn't mean it I was just wondering would tough love draw out the spunky Daphne I knew. I sighed aloud and Adam who was driving turned to look at me. "Hey kid I know we aren't the closest of friends but we are pack and I am here for you." Adam said catching me slightly off gaurd my confusion must have been etched on my face. "I don't talk about feelings much but that doesn't mean I don't spot them." Adam smirked as I nodded. "Why don't you just talk. I'm all ears but I won't be telling anyone. I'm the best person no one will suspect I know a thing." he reasoned and I opened my mouth to respond when the story of Daphne's choice and our lost b
Emmett PoV We all found Prince Quentin and his fairy companions in the basement room observing the circle quietly when I entered with Charlie he looked up at us. "It's a strong fairy ring." he sighed and my face fell. "The fairies that created this are of as ancient a blood line as my own. Makes sense why Carmen targeted them." he added. "This blood line is going to be tough to over power." one of the other fairies agreed as they stared at the stone circle again with out stretched hands. They appeared to be feeling and pushing against a force we could not see. "And they all perished by Carmen's hand?" Quentin asked me without looking from the ring. "all but one." Emmett replied. "Of course otherwise the ring would break. Carmen has the fairy I assume?" Quentin asked again in a cold direct manner. "No we have her here." I responded. "Then why waste our time Werewolf kill the fairy and the magic dies simple." the older fairy companion snapped as he turned his glare at me and Cha
