Dinner was awkward. And quiet. Lori tried hard to make conversation but the words of Gabriel's grandfather still hung heavily in her heart.

She was so relieved when he left, hastily taking off her heels and disappearing into the room.

She took off her nice dress and wore some pajamas. She just wanted to crawl into bed and sleep. For the longest time.

This wasn't the first time she had been told she wasn't good enough for Gabriel. And something told her it wasn't going to be the last.

What if they were right? What if they were all right?

They couldn't all be lying. She left the necklace on her, her fingers touched it slightly.

She liked the necklace. It was a pretty and thoughtful gift. She had to give Gabriel something in return. Since he mentioned that it was customary.

Gabriel came back in moments later after seeing his grandfather off and saw Lori laying on the bed, her back to him. It was late, but not late enough for her to go to bed.

    Gabriel was going to burst out of his skin. He couldn't stand it. The sight of Lori straddling his thighs, the soft flimsy fabric of her pajamas, the silken glide of her long dark hair over his bare chest as she pressed a kiss to his lips. She brushed her mouth over his, slid her tongue along his lips. Gabriel prayer them for her and her tongue slipped into his mouth, he caught it between his lips and sucked hard. Her whisper was a triumph and Gabriel kept still as she withdrew, straightening again and she lifted her pajama top over her head. Gabriel's mouth went dry at the sight of her. Her breasts... full and heavy... he had missed her. He didn't get a chance to get enough of them that day that they mated, but now, he was going to take his time with them. He was going to feast. Slowly, Gabriel took off her pajama bottoms, leaving her almost naked before him. Only her cotton pink panties remained. He hurriedly took off his boxer briefs too. As he came back

    "We have to go!""We have to go now Gabriel!"Lori urged as she jumped out of bed. She didn't care that she was naked as she ran towards the closet, grabbing the first pair of jeans and shirt she could see. Gabriel made a quick call, Lori didn't listen to see who it was but by the time she turned he was also half dressed.He looked thoroughly confused."Where are we going?!"He finally asked her amidst the frenzy."Elliot is in danger Gabriel. We have to help him. We have to be there before something bad happens..."She murmured and Gabriel nodded, still mildly confused. "Do you know where we're going?"He asked as calmly as he could muster. Lori nodded, closing her eyes to remember the location. There was a river... a trail, grass, stone walls.. those were all that she could remember. Elliot was on the grass, bleeding out.She explained her dream to him again, specifically focusing on the details of where she had seen him. Gabriel

    It all happened so fast. Everything. And Lori saw how fast life could change in the blink of an eye. How sad and gloomy it wasn’tElliot didn’t wake up. No matter how much she c cried and pleaded for him to wake up. Gabriel had to pry her away from his side when the backup finally arrived.Draco had managed to hold on to Lyle before he ran away and Vara didn’t get far away quickly. Gabriel’s men apprehended her. Lori watched as Elliot’s lifeless arms dangled while he was carried away. Lori followed Gabriel to the car and back to the penthouse when it was all over. Even though the dawn was breaking, it seemed as if they both made a silent agreement to go back to sleep since they didn’t get enough sleep.Lori was shook to her core. It all seemed surreal. Almost like a fever dream. She really couldn’t believe that Elliot was gone.She washed up and cleaned his blood off from her body. The wrist she had bitten was healed, not even a scratch

    They arrived at the funeral location where Elliot’s funeral was holding. The cemetery where he was to be buried. The atmosphere not only looked gloomy but felt gloomy, oddly enough the sun was shining relentlessly. Everywhere Lori looked there were no smiles; she couldn’t remember ever attending a funeral before, but she couldn’t think of anything more depressing than one. She squeezed Gabriel’s hand and he squeezed back reassuringly as they walked towards the gathering. They had quietly dressed that morning, overwhelmed with grief. Lori spent most of her morning with Emilia, happy to have her comfort. Gabriel decided it was time she came back home and Lori couldn’t agree more. Emilia being around had comforted her a lot more She bought a dress for the funeral, she didn’t have anything funeral appropriate enough. A black lacy dress with long sleeves and a high neckline. Gabriel himself had donned on a black suit. His expression cold and grim, the same expression

    "You slapped Kate. At Eliot's Funeral."Those were the first words he said to Lori as he walked into Emilia’s room where Lori was changing the baby’s diaper. He had been in a heated conversation with his family when commotion had broken out. Kate screaming, people running towards her, blood streaming down the side of her face, Lori storming off. He was shocked to hear Lori was the one who hit her. That wasn't Lori. That wasn't something she would do. He rushed after Lori, leaving everybody else there and met her standing by the car, arms folded and face stoic. She didn't look the least bit remorseful. He had decided then that she had to go home. Maybe the funeral and everything was too much for her. His family already didn't like her, he didn't want to make everything much worse. He put her in the car and made Draco escort her back home. Back at the gathering he tried to placate Kate who half of her face was covered In blood. It looked like Lori’s claws

    “What do you make of all this?”Gabriel asked Draco as he took a swig out of his whisky. He rarely drank, but during times like these… he couldn’t help it.They were standing in front of Vara’s cell. She was on the floor, crouched low, her head in her hands, she had not spoken a word to them in days.Three days in isolation had not broken her will. She still wasn’t budging. Draco shuddered. Gabriel was overwhelmed, he could feel it and see it written all over his face. He was back from Kate and it seemed she even had more annoying news to give him.“I have my ears to the wall… I’m trying to get you as much information as I can.”He said but Gabriel shook his head. “That’s not what I asked.”“I don’t know what to think Gabriel. Your family says she’s too weak to be your Luna, but the alphas somehow see her as a threat?!”“It doesn’t make any sense to me.” Draco added. “Who fucking told them about her in the first place?”He asked and Gab

    Training was harder than she expected. Myra Blackwell was a thorough woman and even though she was very gentle with Lori, she made it clear that she would not let Lori leave until she saw progress. Shifting... shifting was a different ballgame, requiring her to tap into a part of herself that had been dormant for years. Years and years.But weirdly, it took an hour, an hour of encouragement and sheer will before Lori finally transformed. She didn't know why she thought it'd be as painful as the first time, but it was relatively painless this time. And now she could feel more changes coming in that she had not noticed before. Not only were her fingers transformed into claws... her toes had become something somewhat resembling talons, pale and curved, they looked sharp to the touch, but surprisingly they looked like they were useful. They had better grip than her hands ever would. Excellent... at least now she knew what they could be used for. Myra s

    “What do you mean everything?! I have nothing to offer you!”Astra spat out, confusion lacing her voice. If she could muster enough energy to at least take out the guard, then she would be free. The witch that was in the room had left moments after she came in, leaving only the three of them. Sabine would fear her enough to run for her safety and the guard was the only one she could conveniently take out even with little power left. She could do it.Her eyes darted around the room again. It was stuffy, two large work tables joined together stood at the side of it. The table was strewn with herbs, twigs, potions, everything witchy. The floor underneath her beard feet was covered in a thick rug. Sabine was across her, safely behind a table and tucked in a chair. There were two guards guarding outside the door, she had seen them coming in, after they had taken her blindfold. She could take them out just as easily too. She would be out in no time an

    Gabriel's POV. Six months later. I want to marry Lori. I've been thinking about it for months, I've bought the perfect ring. The type I know she will like. A classic, oval cut diamond I’ve caught her admiring at least three times on separate occasions and I’ve been waiting for the perfect time. But something keeps coming up. Lori’s too busy. She has way too much on her plate and sometimes I think adding wedding plans to the mix would be a little thoughtless of me. We just celebrated Jack and Emilia's first year birthday a few weeks ago and the planning drained her. Physically and mentally drained her. She wanted a big party, I didn't mind a small one but we ended up going all out anyways and thankfully it didn't turn into a complete mess. And after the party I thought we'd be getting more alone time since we finally have a new nanny but that's not really the case. Lori has decided to apply for college and while I'm finally happy that she's getting to d

    Lori's POVIt's been three months. Three long months but they have been full of more bliss than I've ever had in my life. More peace, more tranquility than ever before. After the issue with Sabine and all that nonsense, Gabriel and I were finally glad and happy that things were back to normal. In our lives and in our children's lives. We could finally live the life we always wanted to live. No, not the whole white picket fence suburban kind of house that Gabriel wanted, but picture something larger, grander, with more rooms and more space for kids to play in.We did move to the old mansion. It was just honestly so much better than the penthouse and for me it held a lot of fond memories. And knowing that Sabine would never step her feet in them again gave me a sense of comfort and relief like never before. It made me happy. And there were so many things to be happy about. I had completed the Luna rites two months ago and I was officially Gabriel's Luna. In were

    It all went by in a blur, but every punch, she remembered. For herself, for Gabriel, for her son and most especially, for Elliot, who didn't make it. How could she let her go, how could she let her live after all the pain and harm she caused her?! No, she would not.She didn't plan on letting her walk free. no, she didn't plan on letting her stay alive. She vaguely remembered punching Sabine, then she saw someone pulling her up. The hands around her arms pulling her away with superhuman strength.  She fought against it but it was futile, the hands were much stronger than hers. "Loretta. Loretta!!!"The voice called out. Lori snatched her hands away from her mother. "Don't call me that."She murmured as she tried crawling back to Sabine. Her face was bloodied and battered beyond recognition, she was barely breathing but Lori knew that the bitch was still alive. She was like a cockroach. She wouldn't die so easily. "Trust me you do not wa

     Even though they had gone over the plan multiple times, Lori still felt jittery and nervous. The anxiety was eating at her, fast and quick. It didn't help that her clothes were still slightly wet and she was uncomfortable and cold. The nephilim guards Ione had got had managed to do a sweep of the area. They estimated the number of wolves around to be at fifteen, all scattered strategically around the mansion. The nephilim guards promised to handle all the guards, just as long as Lori and Gabriel went inside first, they promised to handle everything else. They would block all exits, so no one got  out, that way anyone in the house would be unable to escape. Gabriel assured her that it would all be fine, and she tried to stay calm at the thought that it would, they were so close now, closer than they had ever been. Her son was just a few metres away from her. The nephilim guards went in first, and then chaos ensued. The whole party erupted in chaos, Gabriel ushere

    Lori transformed. The full transformation and the cabin suddenly felt small and stuffy. Two huge men came to her side, one ways holding a book. Lori didn't know what it was or what it was for, but it looked important enough. "We have created a bath, you have to stay submerged in it to drown out our voices and movements."Lori looked around, they pointed to the end of the hallway. She wondered if whatever bathtub they had prepared would fit her wings. "Will this work?! You look unsure."She noted as she got a sense of her mother's emotions now that she was fully nephilim. She could smell her worry, also laced with fear.She wondered if the ritual was safe. "It will. It can take several hours though."Ione answered. Lori decided at this point she needed to alert Gabriel. Just in case anything that wasn't supposed to happen, happened. Come now. As fast as she had sent the message, she heard footsteps on the front porch, the door opened

    "Hello?""Who is this?!"Lori asked as she rolled on the floor. Oh Myra had kicked her ass during training. In fact, she could barely feel her legs. Her muscles had been out of use for a while. It had only been about a week or two since she was out of training yet it felt like it had been years. "Loretta? Am I speaking to Loretta?"Lori sat up. Something about the voice was oddly familiar. "Yes?! Who is this?""This is Ione."Ione. Ione. Where had she heard that name before? She could have sworn it was familiar. "Ione what? From who?!""Ione Verstrynge. A friend of yours gave me your number. Her name is Astra."That was when it clicked. Astra had told her. That her mother was named Ione. And that she had heard of her. Lori couldn't believe her ears!She couldn't believe that she was talking to her birth mother. As shocked as she was, she also felt overwhelmingly angry. It had been years, what reason did the

    Lori was late. She had promised to start training again and was well on her way there when Grace called and canceled due to a family emergency. Lori couldn’t blame her, but she also had to go to training and needed someone to watch the baby, so she had stayed home till Gabriel came back to take over. She had hurried out of the penthouse, in nothing but sweats and slacks, her gym bag over her shoulder with a pair of socks almost falling out. She stopped at the lobby to stuff it in. One of Gabriel's men was waiting at the parking lot to driver her to the training ground. She was late already and she was also sure that he must have been waiting a while. In her hurry, she bumped into someone and her whole bag came tumbling down again. She muttered a string of apologies as she picked up her bag, not even glancing at the person before turning away. The person touched her hand and she turned, alarmed and confused. Her eyes narrowed as she saw who it was. Axel Walker. She loo

    Ione Verstrynge had stared at the contents of the letter ever since it arrived. The words were even starting to replay in her head. Alongside with a past she had fought hard to forget. She had sent for Graham, her right hand man, confused and angry, he was the only one she could trust in her state and the only one she had entrusted the information with the minute she got the letter. If it was true she had a grandson, then her daughter must be alive and in danger. She had lost her for years. Years of running and running had made her paranoid she she had run without looking back. The only problem was that she had left her daughter behind. With no time to look back. For the first few years she visited at least twice. She found out the orphanage had named her Loretta. And that she was a spitting image of her father. That had hurt more deeply than anything and so she had left again. The last time she went back, she didn't find her, too bad, she had wanted to at least see h

    “Hello?!”Lori answered the phone, knowing fully well who the caller was. She had been expecting Sabine’s call ever since they launched their series of coordinated attacks on her. It had taken at least five days before she finally deigned to call her. She knew the woman would call once she found out the extent she was willing to go to. And Sabine did not disappoint.“Lori.”She answered in a clipped tone.“How have you been Sabine?”She asked and Sabine didn’t reply for a few seconds. “I’ve been better.”She grunted and Lori resisted the urge to chuckle. She was itching to gloat. “Must have been a pretty hard week…”“I’ve had better…”Sabine murmured. Lori examined her nails as she smiled to Myra who was sitting next to her and listening to every bit of the conversation. Myra had come to ask her when she would resume practice, Lori had avoided all talks of practice and told Myra about what she was up to instead, Sabi
