Isabella P.O.V.When I asked people to be here and talk, I never imagined it would be this complicated?! I was going to explain who I am family to the Moon Goddess, and I would take all the scorn from my children for not telling them sooner, but I never thought this would involve another deity, and definitely not that Ivy would be a God child herself. I know she is powerful! I have felt her full aura, although her wolf hides most of it behind a barrier, which in itself is very powerful, but then the part they let ooze is out of this world. I just thought Selene had made her a special selected person to match Isaiah, but maybe it is really the other way around? Everyone is silent after the newly arrived Goddess. I take a deep breath and smile at her. “Please sit down. May we know your name?” I ask her, side eyeing my son. He should be the one who asked this question or offered her a seat. Isaiah seems dumbfounded and confused as hell. Ivy looks equally livid and scared out of her min
Isaiah P.O.V. I can’t even believe the audacity with these two! I don’t fucking care their are Goddesses, do they not understand how much they have hurt Ivy? She is heartbroken and scared shitless. When her ‘mother’ proclaimed she is stronger than me she fled the room, refusing to look at me when I caught up to her in the hallway. I was shaking from top to toe in anger, devastation and anxiety. She told me would accept a rejection, however painful, because she knows an Alpha would never want a mate who is stronger than her. I made her look at me and I made sure she understood how much I am NOT going to reject her. She may be stronger than me, but she is mine! Apollo is fucking livid, doing everything he can to calm down Raven and assure we are not going to abandon them. The tension in the room is so palpable you can almost cut it with a knife. I take a deep breath to start the conversation, but Ivy beats me to it. Her cool voice is clear and collected when she addresses her ‘mother’
Unknown P.O.V. “Get back here!” “You cannot hide!” “We will get you at some point.” The men are searching the forest floor, but they are not going to find me down there. I snicker and look in my backpack. I got what I came for, and now I’ll have to hurry to the other side of the country. This is going to take time, because right now I cannot use my teleportation powers, as they’ll have a means to track me down. I roll my eyes, leaning back against the thick tree trunk, and close my eyes lightly. I keep my ears perked for the slightest sound of someone noticing I am up here, but so far they are far too busy looking for me down there. The sound of the men cursing, shouting to each other and ruffling the forest floor to see where they are going. I might or might not have set some small traps for my unwilling friends down there, and I can’t wait for one of them to stumble upon them. “Ooof!” One of the men grunts as leaves and branches give way for this weight, then the lovely sounds
Ivy P.O.V. It’s been a few days since our encounter with my mother and her sister. Isabella has been making it a point to teach Isaiah and I about our heritage as child and great grandchild of a Goddess. We have powers no one else poses, which is also why we are the Royal bloodline. The fact that we could compel our ranked members to shift during our coronation and my Luna ceremony just goes to show how strong we both are, but as Isaiah says; “it was the call from his Queen that made Apollo follow suit to howl at the moon.” I think it over, as Raven prance around proudly in my mind. She has her chest puffed out, which I internally am laughing so hard over. She is a sight for sore mental eyes. We keep discovering new things and sides to being a Goddess child, or relative. It kind of makes me dizzy. All the texts keep saying I am supposed to be some sort of superior being, but I do not feel like that at all. I feel like my awkward, clueless and clumsy self. Although I’ll have to admit
Isaiah P.O.V. I just stand there and blink several times before Selen’s words even make sense to me. Then I look back at the young man, whose eyes are roaming my mate. I immediately growl and pull Ivy closer into embrace. She giggles, his snorts and Selene rolls her eyes. The others are on their toes at my growl and take a step closer as well, as I can feel them come closer to me. “Isaiah, that will not be necessary, Jasper is aware that Ivy is mated and as my grandchild and nephew I hope you both can get along. You are actually all three in some sort of weird family. You are all connected to my sisters and me, so please behave. I don’t want to come here and separate y’all or have to explain to Solaris why her son is dead.” Jasper snorts again, turning his head to Selene. “I won’t be the one who is dead, aunt, if it comes down to that.” Then he falls to his knees, his eyes widening and his breath coming out strained. He looks up, as I let go of Ivy. Her hair is flowing around her,
Jasper P.O.V. The Beta and Gamma show me a few rooms, but they let me choose where I want to stay, which is fairly nice of them. I noticed we never entered the Alpha floor, although my status as Solari’s son, a Goddess born, allows me the same privileges as Alpha’s or other leaders, but I guess the King does not want me anywhere near his mate. She is a looker for sure, a pretty little thing, but she is not for me. She has her mate, and if there is one thing I actually respect it’s the matebond. Aunt Selene would have my head faster than I can blink if I ever tried to interfere with one of her couples. She’s very touchy on that particular subject. Of course the King does not know that, and I did check out his mate in the background, but not for the reason he believed. I was checking out her aura and power dept. I must say I’m hella impressed and intrigued, not that I would ever admit that. She is powerful beyond anyone or anything I have ever come across in my many years on this eart
Ivy P.O.V. “I found out who your father is, and your full parentage today. You are not a far, cousin.” Jasper says and the room goes eerie quiet. People are holding their breath to see how I will react, I gather, and I myself do not even know what to say to that? Of course I’m a fae. I have the fae looks and powers. What the actual fuck. ‘Raven, do you know what he is on about?’ ‘Our cousin is right. We have fae traits because that is what our mother gave us, but we have no blood of the fae in us. We have divine and wolf blood, through and through.’ ‘But.. We’re a hybrid.’ ‘Yes, Ivy. We’re a Goddess/werewolf hybrid.’ ‘God.. Goddess? I’m a what?!’ ‘We, child. We are that! We are a hybrid created out of true love between our parents.’‘You’ve known all along?’ ‘I suspected, but it didn’t click before Jasper told us just now. I am far too strong to be fighting space within you with another mortal species. Our Goddess side has merged fully with our wolf side, which is why we can
King Edor P.O.V. The battle plans have been going mostly smoothly, and I know for a fact that the wolf King has no idea what I am planning. Ashti and Briell are still mad at me and both of them refuse to speak to me. They have resolved to live in a private wing of the castle, which I put under guard as a result of their decisions. Ashti was furious the first time she tried to leave and was told she was under house arrest, and I cackled all the way to my office after the head guard retold how she had thrown a tantrum. My people are starting to question my sanity as their King, but I do not care. I remind them, harshly, why I am King, and my spies tell me it has been quiet since then.Speaking of spies, I managed to get some planted into the Jewel pack as well, and they have been most informative. Everyday I find a new stack of papers with news about the daily activities of Ivy and her entourage. “The Queen went for a walk amongst the pack today. Many didn’t know what to think of he
Hi all my lovely readers. This is where the new book following Astra, Jasper, Jonas, Flora and Jenna will be updated. It has been decided that the book is so tightly knit to the second book, that I have to update it this way, which also means I will not start updating until the new year, so I have a bundle of chapers to start out with, and it will be a project on the side as I am also looking at signing something new and exciting. But don't worry, I will not let that affect my quality or updating rate, as I hope the extra time until I start it regularly, will give me the opportunity to uodate 3 times a week as I use to. That was the sereious part. Now for someting more related to the new book. After the war is won, and Isaiah and Ivy say goodbye to Jasper, Astra, Jonas, Flora and Jenna, everything seems to be fine. They know Jenna has been acting kinda weird and clingy towards her children and Flora, but everyone has been brushing it off to grief over her mate's death. Jasper howev
Isaiah P.O.V.Ophelia turned out to be a great asset to our motley crowd. And the kids immediately took to her, finding her training fun and relaxing at the same time. Eli, Gabe and the twins understood the importance of practicing meditation and other forms of mental defense. Emmet and Ilina just thought it fun and different, although they had a harder time sitting still both of them were determined to be as good as their siblings. Most of the time Ilina fell asleep during meditations, which Ophelia said was fine. We fell into a good routine after Ophelia also joined us, and soon it was time to prepare the kids to leave the Realm of Magic. We were all sad to go, but I think Ivy was the saddest of us all. She really felt at home here between her parents and all the wonderful creatures we got to meet. On our last day we decided to bring the kids back to the stream, giving Ophelia and Archeron time to pack and be ready for the next day. We have been here for so long, the kids kinda fo
Ivy P.O.V. We have been here for a little over a month now, although I know that is not even half of that in the Mortal Realm, I cannot help but feel a bit bad for just leaving everything to Aiden, Alisa and Isaiah’s parents. They have been doing a great job so far, and only had to call for me twice until now to help solve disputes in the pack, and once for something regarding another pack and a treaty violation. I love to help, and it was nice to see everyone again. Isabella also had some time to yell at me for getting pregnant again, cry because this is definitely the last one and almost faint when I said it’s twins. One of each. We had the doctor another scan just before they called me for the treaty thing, and we got the news. Isaiah is over the moon, and the younger kids are beginning to understand that momma has to be a bit more careful because of the babies in her belly. Ilina has been so loving ever since I came a little further along. Mom says it’s because she can sense them
Isaiah P.O.V.“Well, congratulations your Graces, you are indeed expecting twins again. I understand you wish to have them in your own home, which I understand. You should still be able to enjoy your stay here, but take it easy and with the slightest discomfort, please come see me again.” The female doctor, a former witch, says with a small smile. “I will monitor you from here, but perhaps it’ll be best if someone also notifies your doctor back in the Mortal Realm?” I nod, looking at Ivy, who seems far away. I take her hand, bringing it to my mouth. She turns her head in my direction, but she does not seem to actually see me. “Doc, may we please have a moment?” I ask, also asking Eli to go back to his grandparents. He looks at his mother with deep concern, and I know the empathic side of him is tapping into her, feeling everything she is. “I got her Eli. Please see your grandparents for now, son.” I tell him, leaning down and kissing his hair. He nods silently, following the doctor o
10 years laterIvy P.O.V.“KIDS I AM GIVING YOU 5 SECONDS TO GET OUT HERE, OR WE ARE GOING WITHOUT YOU! 5, 4, 3.. Thank you!” I’m standing outside the packhouse with Isiah, Eli who is 10, and knows by now not to piss off his mother when we’re going somewhere and our youngest, Ilina who is 2 and sleeping in her stroller. Isaiah shakes his head at me, and kisses my temple. I sigh. I know I’m more impatient today than usual, and that says something, because I’m always impatient when we’re going somewhere, but today is very special and we’re going to be gone for quite some time as a family. Out of house rushes our other children; Gabe who is 8, and the actual spitting image of the uncle he is named after, the twins Isobel and Elain who is 6 and finally our 4 years old Emmet. I put my hands on my hips and look them all over, while Eli and Isaiah snickers behind me. They’re just happy they are not the ones who are in trouble this time. “I am blaming us for being late solely on all of you
Isaiah P.O.V.We table this discussion for later, and follow dad out the door and out back where a ton of chairs is placed facing a small decorated platform for me and Ivy. I cannot wait to see her in her dress. I know she is a little self conscious right now, but she is just gorgeous and I love her so much! She is going to be a vision, I am sure of it. We take our place as everyone is finding their seats in the crowd. Aunt Jenna smiles at Jonas and taps a seat beside her. She has placed herself in the front, and with enough chairs free so Jonas, Astra and Alisa can sit with her I think. I just raise an eyebrow and make a last minute decision. “Actually, aunt Jonas is in my bridal party, so he is standing today.” I tell her politely, winking at Jonas. I mindlink Ivy, telling her about my abrupt change and explaining why. She laughs over the mindlink and tells me she’ll inform the others. Flora was made head of the flower girls, and had to stay with them, saving her from my aunt as
Isaiah P.O.V.“A toast to the happy couple! Congratulations, Isaiah! You really are a lucky man.” Aiden says, smiling at me. We are sitting at the breakfast table, just us guys. I raise my champagne glass to him, toasting in silence. The rest say ‘hear hear’ and drink with us. We are having a great morning so far, but I am starting to feel the small nervous jitters of excitement. This day has been long coming, but is finally here. Today I am going to make Ivy my wife! She is already the mother to our son, and seeing her take that role with such passion has been one of the greatest moments in my life! I know she thinks I am a nervous wreck when it comes to Eli, but I just can’t help it. With everything we have been through since I found her in the Fae Kingdom, I am going to keep myself on my toes regarding our son. No one is ever going to hurt him. I know that for sure because they will have to face the wrath of my soon-to-be wife, and I’ll handle the leftovers, but still. He is our so
Ivy P.O.V. Two weeks later We’ve had our little Eli with us for two weeks now and he is just a little angel! I must admit as much as motherhood scared me, and we had some minor setbacks, such as I am not able to breastfeed him, I really love being a mother. The thing with breastfeeding was a hard blow as I had heard so much good about it, but I was just not producing milk. Isaiah has been a trooper navigating my hot mess of emotions - going from high to low faster than Elsa chose to let it go in Frozen. We finally had some quiet time to sit down and watch some movies and be a family - meaning a Disney marathon. It was an amazing evening. Everyone in the pack has welcomed Eli with open hearts, and I could not be more proud. I have also decided to divide my reading time for the little ones with Isabella, as she really enjoyed herself when I was in labor. She has Tuesday and I have Thursday. The kids have been nothing but sweet and gentle with my son, cooing over him and doting whenev
Isiaah P.O.V.4 months later “ISAIAH!” Ivy screams from our room. Our wedding day fastly approaching, but we decided to wait to get married until she had our baby. She’s been a real trooper through the pregnancy, and has been bedridden for the last month because the little rascal may or may not come early if she didn’t. Not that she wasn’t doing everything right before to keep him in there for as long as possible, but sometimes that is just not enough and you have to do more proactive stuff to ensure a full term baby. She’s been having a tough time accepting that, and twice a week I have been carrying her to the downstairs living room, where she has been reading to the littlest pups in the pack. They have been so fascinated with her growing stomach and the fact the next little Alpha is in there. I adore her, swelling stomach and all. She is as beautiful today as she was the day I met her - minus all the bruises. “ISAIAH I MEAN I… OW!” I jump to my feet, hurrying into our bedroom. I w
