Stepping on toes or stomping?

Andricia

Primly’s eyebrows furrow and I see him straighten up, his jaw ticks slightly as my aura washes over him once more.

“And future Luna of Golden Summit as our destined mate,” Cyrus adds, proudly holding me a little tighter.

“Destined? Wait, Alpha?” He says louder and draws the attention of other Alphas standing around. His eyes don’t leave mine, and he steps closer, earning four deep rumbles to emit through the foyer.

“There are no female Alphas.” He says exasperated. He steps back again, raising his hands like he doesn’t want trouble. He is the trouble, though, regardless of trying to keep the peace.

I scoff and approach him, sliding out of Cyrus’ and Samson’s grip, but not without them trying to hold on. Silas follows close behind me, I can feel the tension through our bond. He seems on edge about being surrounded by Alpha wolves, but he certainly doesn’t show it. I stop short, about an arm's length away from the incompetent Alpha, and look up at

    So this is what you do in the middle of the night?Andricia I fly out of the bed and crash into the wall opposite it. Silas sits on the bed with his jaw hanging open. None of my other mates are in the room. My feet are moving, and I’m out the door before I comprehend where I’m even going. Silas is behind me as I approach a set of two heavy doors. I throw them open and walk in, being met by Justin’s eyes along with my mates and every other alpha here. “Andricia. Lovely Andricia we are so happy to have you here to finally represent Fusilis.” He says I stop next to my mate's table, Silas right beside me.He approaches and takes my hand, kissing it. His proximity makes me aware of how little I’m wearing. I have on Cyrus’ white button-up that hangs down to my mid-thigh and black underwear. He kisses it a little too long and the quads growl while Silas lays a hand on his shoulder. He clears his throat and takes a step back, brushing himself off.“Yes umm, your seat is up at the top.” He s

    Feeling HotAndriciaI approach the bathroom door and just as I reach for the handle it opens. Silas looks down at me and smiles. His hand brushes the hair out of my face.“You look breathtaking, little bird.” He steps to the side and I see all four of my Alphas standing in line. Black sleek formal wear with gold shiny accents, just like Reagan said. They should also be flame retardant. I look at Silas and see he is wearing the same. I hear my mate's heartbeats quicken, and Kendrick’s eyes shine with pride. Sam looks as if he has tears in his eyes, but as quickly as it comes, it leaves. Duron is smiling from ear to ear with his perfect white smile. Cyrus has his usual blank stare, but his eyes speak a million words. He walks to me and kisses the top of my head, his hand lands on the small of my back, and we head out to the ballroom. We walk through the castle with Zek and Kira in tow, they are both wearing all black. As we approach the ballroom, the doors are opened for us by two at

    Burn baby Andricia “We need to get back to the pack lands. I need my pack, they need to be safe.” My flames have died out, and Cerberus is licking her emotional wounds in my mind. “We will get them. Don’t worry kitten.” Samson says while brushing the hair out of my face. “We can reside in my territory. I can block the underworld, they won’t even remember where my territory is. I will force the pack not to tell them. I can't do anything until I can figure out what is happening.” I say while looking at Silas, who has a strange expression. He comes over and once again shimmers us, but this time to golden summit. The world fades in around us and I see all the pack warriors looking at us from the training field. “Pack meeting now!” Samson shouts and everyone immediately starts running to us. “Something has happened, and we must go away for a while. My brothers will be back, and you will not tell them anything about Andricia.” Silas is up in the room, packing everything that has ever

    Disappearing ActSamsonI’ve been at my pack all night. I explained what was happening, and they seemed to understand completely. Especially the ones that are mated. However, most seem devastated by the news. They loved Andricia to death. Even though she is a true-blooded alpha, she has natural Luna qualities. The amount of care and support she gave Christopher after what I did to him is the heart of a true Luna. This pack will not be the same in her temporary absence, but I will get everything back to the way it was. The pain I felt just watching Andricia and Cerberus suffer at my brother's hands made me sick. After Silas brought her back to the territory I found myself bent over the porcelin spewing the remnants in my stomach. Now I’m standing in our room, staring at Cyrus’ scorched bed. I hear my brothers approaching the manor before the front door opens. They’ve come alone, which is surprising. I heard them enter the house and climb the steps, but they stopped outside the door. C

    Who needs control anyway?Deep Culloden WoodsAndriciaOne year. 365 days. I never would’ve imagined myself being here. We spent 6 months crammed in Silas’ house. 3 months of that I spent curled up in a ball from the pain. Cerberus put up a fight, but after I reminded her of the pain we were put through, she went quiet. I haven’t heard from her since.We have kept our distance, I made sure I found an area far enough to not be affected by the bond. Once I get close enough, pain takes over. We went right outside the distance it reached. Surprisingly, it is still in Culloden Woods. They stretch farther than any of us anticipated.‘Little bird?’ Silas’ voice rings in my head, pulling me from my thoughts. I step back from the cliff and turn to see him emerging from the tree line. I found a clearing that had a waterfall. The water below is clear, but it seems deep as you can’t see the bottom.His cold arms wrap around my waist, and he peppers kisses on my shoulder softly. We haven’t complet

    She can fly? Silas I brought her to the only witch I have kept contact with over the years. The white witch had vanished into thin air and I needed help finding her. Andricia is deteriorating quickly; I know it’s from her constant fight with Cerberus. After the day she destroyed the cabin, she passed out and hasn't woken up for a week now. I didn’t know where else to turn, so I brought her to the witches' secret haven. Now I watch as Andricia screams and the glass shatters. The witch falls to the ground rocking holding her ears to drown it out, but I can’t imagine it is working. She slowly stops and opens her eyes, looking around. I felt the piece of glass in my cheek and pulled it out, but her eyes got large, and she covered her mouth. “I’m sorry.” It’s strained, and her eyes are full of tears, but she quickly throws the door open and tries to get away from us. I chase her out into the snow because we are on a mountain. I see her sliding to a stop and my breath catches in my thro

    Sweet DreamsKendrickI walk into the chambers that the meeting is in and see our spot front and center because we are the leading pack. I don’t see Fusilis anywhere until I look to the top. Her table sits empty and the hole in the stone is still there from when she threw Silver Crest’s table plate at the wall.This meeting is pointless I have no reason to be here. I notice no Lunas in the room only Alphas. Primly stands in the center of the room waiting for everyone to take their seats. We sit at our table and the meeting begins. I notice how bored my brothers and I look Cyrus is leaning back in his chair Samson has his feet on the table and arms crossed and Duron has his arms crossed and head down with his eyes closed.It is a bunch of nonsense that speaks of disputes that happened in the past year changes of territory’s new land being acquired. New treaties and alliances that packs may have formed together. I notice Primly skim over my table then look up to Andricia’s and his eyebr

    Life can be a bitch. Andricia Too often, I find myself breaking free from a trance like this. My hands and knees in the soil laced with ash. My heart-burning eyes are full of tears, so I keep them shut. I fear the destruction I’ve caused because of control, or lack of it. I’ve never had a problem with control, but lately, it’s all impulse. There is a war raging within me between powers, and I fear that I won’t come out on top with either of them. My body can’t deal with the physical toll it causes. Ever since I left, my healing has been off, and I think it has something to do with Cerberus. She said to me a while back, ‘If they can’t have us, nobody can.’ She is plotting, but I can’t figure out what she has done. His cool grip lands on the tattered clothes that hang off my body. He stayed by my side through it all, just like he said. ‘Little bird, don’t put yourself through this again.’ Silas chimes in my head and I feel the tears becoming more adamant about escaping. A sob pushes

    Andricia"I think you are exactly as you are meant to be, and just what this pack needs." Footsteps sound in the distance and a hush falls over the meadow as they slowly make their way toward us. I rise to my feet before giving a hand to Reagan and helping her up. She takes one last look at the wildflowers before disappearing toward the treeline and into it. Samson's arms wrap around me from behind and I lean into his touch. Soaking up the warmth radiating from him as the smell of fresh rainfall washes over me. Hot lips connect with the mark on my neck awakening the fire within me. I turn in his arms running my hand through his hair drowning in his green eyes. Our lips crash together in a bruising kiss and I grab hold of that ancient power living within me and we disappear into glittering light.Resurfacing in our room my back slams into the wall and we don't break the kiss once. Feeling the need to touch his skin take over I burn away my clothes and his own as they fall to ash at our

    AndriciaMy heartbeat throbs in my ears at the revelation. Drowning out the discussion being had and plans that could protect the packs. An army of witches and wolves is fine but a beast that has been extinct for a century... Where have they been all these years? Why team up with the witch in the first place? The outcome of an army of lycans would be catastrophic for us. There will be no victory unless I can unleash my flame on the Lycans and Tarot."I thought they were extinct." I finally chime in halting all conversation and planning. Realizing Cyrus had been caressing my side this entire time as a means of comfort. I suppose creating allies and planning for war is all new for me. My mates have endured battle forged alliances and gotten their hands dirty when needed all for the sake of their pack. All I've ever done is protect my lands from witches and keep us alive. They are the embodiment of hope and I'm where it dies. There was never any hope in my land after the males died off.

    AndriciaWhite powdery snow puffs into the air as Kain slides through it. The force that was behind Gwen's magic had me clutching my chest. I snap my focus back to Silas playing a game of dodging the spells with shimmering. Kain is already on his feet shimmering through this world with impeccable speed. Jackson meanders his way over taking up space beside me now. He had been practicing shimmering short distances. He is at a disadvantage and out of practice due to being frozen."What's the point in all of this? You don't even know what you're up against." I don't bother peeling my focus from Silas but cringe as he takes a blow. The feeling is strange, not pain but I can feel a dull ache where he feels the pain. Could he feel anytime I was in pain? If so how did he endure the pain inflicted by Justin?"There will be witches, I've encountered my fair share to know that the number of witches practicing dark magic is rising. I couldn't bear living with myself if I sent anyone into this war

    Andricia “You fear that I will soak this world in blood yet you offer yours to me first.” His voice is ancient an accent I'm unfamiliar with yet understand perfectly. Silas is similar yet so different as it has aged just as he has. Jackson is still a newborn unfamiliar with the world he now lives in. Believing he is the biggest threat to walk this earth—a threat yes but not the largest one we've encountered. “You would be smart to hold your tongue. A legend you may have become but don't be a fool. This world will chew you up until you are nothing but bones and when it does I will be there to burn whatever is left of you to ash that will be carried away on a breeze and forgotten forever. Unless you join me. We can teach you how to survive and prepare you for what awaits.” He remains silent just as Silas and Kain await whatever comes from Jackson's mouth next. After a good while, I begin to grow impatient the flame thrumming within me, flowing through my veins begging to be released.

    SilasIce fills my veins at the sound of his name off my bond's lips. I growl her burning eyes locked on my icy ones. I can't bother to mind the confusion from the Alphas and yank on the glimmering bond between us hissing down at her.'You must be joking.' I hiss in warning but she doesn't yield an inch. I can see her plans unfolding in my mind as if they were my own. I can't lie they are good but dangerous. Unleashing him on the world again could be catastrophic. How did she keep this plan from me? Like she blocked me from her mind. I may have been busy with Kain and Gwen but I still had her in my mind. She is always consuming my mind I'm not sure why it would change now. Had I truly been that distracted? A gentle caress down the bond shuts down my thoughts and her burning flame creates a glorious barrier keeping me from her mind. I reach a phantom hand out to it but it doesn't burn me. Instead, it opens and I once again hear and feel everything from her."You mean like the bedtime s

    AndriciaThe cover of the treeline surrounds me. I stand helpless looking at the event playing before me. Reagan crumbles to the ground, and the sob filling the air cracks my heart. I sway on my feet momentarily before two hands land on my hips keeping me on my feet. Silas presses closer to me where my wings would have been he fills. My mates swoop in holding Reagan and Augustus as they mourn the loss of the woman whose name I still hadn't learned. Taking notice of the pack that was outside training now kneeling with their heads hung. A devastating loss for this pack. A calculated attack that would leave the leading members wounded and disoriented for a while. However as this packs Luna I will not allow any harm to come to anyone as they grieve this loss. The loss falls entirely on my shoulders as if it were my hand that ripped her throat out.The moon is almost to the peak of the sky directly above us. Crisp air nips at my exposed back in the midnight blue material that hangs from my

    AndriciaSo beautiful. The thought zips down the bond and I flush from head to toe in the pale blush floor-length dress Silas gave me. The gauzy material whispers against the floor and the sheer sleeves show off my tanned skin below. The back is open on the shoulders where my wings are free to be if I wish. Our short time away had been so enlightening and helped me gain access to the power locked within me. Our bond is stronger and so beautiful it sparkles within me. I close the distance between Silas and me the fire dissipating from the hearth as it makes its way back within me. He brushes my loose hair behind my ear before his lips softly caress my own and the world around us fades to nothing. We linger a little longer on the other side drinking in each other before resurfacing in Golden Summit. My wings gleam in the sunlight and the grounds quiet as the pack notices us."How'd you do it?" Gwen's voice pulls my attention from Silas. She stands with Kain at the bottom of the pack hou

    AndriciaThe ice fringes the edge of my vision before I am plunged down into the frozen water nothing but darkness surrounding me. Down, down, into the frozen depths of darkness until suddenly I'm yanked above the surface gasping for air. The snow is blinding in the frozen peaks that surround me. Silas' bare chest is against my now bareback. I'm soaked in water my skin shining under the rising sun. My neck tingles instead of the searing pain I felt in my nightmare. When my fingers connect with it I feel Cyrus caress the bond between us. He is there and understands what I just experienced even if he isn't here with me now. Silas, he would've seen it all and felt exactly what I felt and seen exactly what it was that haunts me. His hold on me is gently and reassuring the ice he used to pull me from my nightmare resting just below his skin. The same way the fire within me does. The dream is an omen. It will only get worse before it gets better.I need to be ready for it. If I'm not strong

    Andricia“You were dying.” The raw emotion in his voice was enough to push all other worries out of my mind and focus entirely on him. Silas continues running smooth circles on my skin. His face is grave and I can see the tension in his jaws. A distant look in his eyes as he no doubt recounts it all.“I could feel your soul tearing itself from you. The bond poisons you if not fed from.” I chew my bottom lip mulling over his words. If he saw me why didn't he come for me sooner? How exactly did he even see me? I never saw him except for when Kain fed from me and in my nightmares."But if you made him feed from me..." The sick feeling of sand running along my insides and my stomach clenching. I spewed in the toilet unable to stomach the feeling. It had felt like a relief initially but then my body must've realized it wasn't Silas who was feeding from us. I wonder did he feel the discomfort I felt? I felt The stomach-wrenching betrayal smothered by the all-consuming confusion because I ha
