Hey everyone! I hope you are liking the story so far! For all those who love smut *like the author* you are going to be in for a surprise soon!
A little outside of the Snowheart mountains and other werewolf territories was a small hamlet of humans and omegas of the wolf packs who had denounced their packs. Only omegas, whose wolves were the weakest could remain detached from the pack without going crazy for the need to pack. But they would have to remain close to their land. The small hamlet had been established centuries ago as a no wolve's land. Protected by the orders of their own ancestors, no wolves were able to fight on this land. However, this sleepy little town had suddenly received an influx of 'tourists' since late last night. Not knowing if there was something in the air, the humans moved around with wide eyes as powerful men and women discussed the future course of action for themselves. "Hadn't there been rumours about the future Queen dying in a fire that she had set due to going insane?" "Yes. Councilman Holding had been talking about how they were looking for a way to lift the magic of the previous Snowhear
As Holding walked behind the screen to change into his wolf form, Erin watched. Knowing what she knew from her new pack member, she knew he believed she was a weak wolf who was suffering the side effects of Wolfsbane. And seeing the look of anticipation on the other faces, Crystal's smile widened. In no hurry to move, she spoke leisurely," From the looks of your faces, all you need is popcorn and beverages to watch the show. What a show of strength. Powerful wolves who are more than double my age and experience want to watch me fight." Even though the words were spoken with a smile, they sent a chill through the others. For there was no mistaking the underlying anger in those words or the threat. Soon enough, a long sandy coloured wolf stepped from behind the screen snarling at her. Narrowing her eyes, she spoke the words, "To the death.", letting everyone know that this was going to be a challenge until either one died. Just as suddenly, the sound of bones popping was heard and E
Crystal shook her head as she wore the trouser suit that Nate had brought for her with a grimace. She should have used the screen to get rid of the clothes instead of letting them tear off. And now she had to wear these old lady clothes. Walking out she spoke to the man," Are you sure you are young and not some old man? For a young guy, you have the taste of an old man. So, what are they planning?" "Well, you have intimidated them into acknowledging you so now they are thinking up of ways to control your power." "Really? And how do they think they can do that?" "By letting Alpha Blake complete the imprinted mate bond that you started as a child." Crystal scoffed at this. Did they really think that a man could control her? These alphas must be living in the 1400s. Sigh. it was time to help them learn another important life lesson. Shaking her head, she walked back to the large room, only to have it fall silent. "I hope my dear comrades have understood that my sexual organs have no
"Oh, he was born with it Luna. Scared me when I first met him." Nate commented from the side causing her to giggle. Unknown to her, the sound went straight to the man's heart causing him to narrow his eyes at the two. He was jealous. And not just jealous but enough that he was tempted to kill his own brother. Over the last two years when he had not felt much for her, he had assumed that it was because of the emotional disconnect he felt after killing his father. Which was the truth. The day he had killed that horrible man, his feelings seemed to have died with him. He had been lucky that Nate had not expected any show of feelings. And then he had met Crystal. Despite the attraction he felt for her and the feeling of being her mate, he had not felt much more. At least what he had heard one should feel for his mate. There was no possessiveness, no compulsion to be close to her. Just a vague desire to protect her. Keeping that in mind, he had even wondered if Crystal would be able to
While the other wolves begrudgingly shuffled out, Crystal crossed her arms in front of her and cocked her head to the side. But suddenly she stiffened. His enticing male scent seemed to surround her almost blocking her from the others who were still a danger to her. Erin shot to alertness and a low growl escaped her lips as his arms snaked around her and he buried his nose in the crook of her neck and inhaled deeply. His breath seemed to send a whisper of desire through her and goosebumps raised along her skin. With a power that made her breath catch, he turned to her and pulled her even closer. "So, you declare that I will be your chosen mate and I should just accept it, hmm?" The last humming sound was made against her skin and she could feel the vibrations all over her body. But he had asked her a question. "Yes. That is exactly as it should be. You are lucky that you are good looking or else you would be the one splayed on the ground." Crystal whispered, cursing inwardly that
"Councilman Leo. You are the only elder amongst us with the knowledge to process the changes that have occurred in the past twenty-four hours," spoke Alpha Drake of the Pallum Pack. He was one of the youngest Alphas and thus most antsy. He had worked hard to protect his pack from the attacks of rogues and other land-hungry Alphas. With his head down and ears to the ground, he had long been listening to the rumours of the return of the Luna. But his informers had told him that the Luna had turned insane and Blake Bloodshadow, Ace Hunter and Councilman Holding were planning to bring her down even before she obtained power. But now, Holding was dead, Blake had stormed off because she refused to accept him as mate and Ace Hunter was about to become even more potent by joining his forces with the powerful Luna. But what exactly had been happening? And what was the prophecy? All they had heard from the lore was that a wolf would be born to rule them. And Luna Crystal had been born in wolf
The moonlight glowed in the large clearing of the Snowheart Pack. The last time Councilman Leo had stood here, he had been looking at the carnage that had been Snowheart Pack. And now, finally that Crystal Snowheart was back, he was glad that he was here to officiate her mating. Alpha Ace had already arrived and this time been accompanied by three more of his people. He still couldn't believe that the man had brought only three people. With the kind of drinking that happened at such events, it would be a wonder if no fights broke out. But then again, Alpha Ace was known to win wars without feeling the need to shed blood. An admirable trait. Right now, the man was staring at the entranceway as if he would burn it up. But what had once again surprised him was what the man was wearing. He was actually wearing a formal black suit and had brought a traditional bridal gown made of fur and lace for his wife. One would think that he had years to prepare this instead of a few hours. And yet,
The feel of her mate's teeth sinking into her skin sent heat racing through Crystal. Everything seemed to have slowed down to a crawl for those few minutes. She could feel every part of him, every breath that caressed her skin. And the pleasure he felt combined with what she was feeling made it hard for her to breathe. Her senses overwhelmed with him, Crystal wondered if this was even normal for her to be aware of him. And the slight ache that she had expected for the first time never seemed to happen. Thankful for the lack of layers between them, Ace started to move in and out of her tightness while his hands moulded her soft br*asts rolling the small peaks between his thumb and fingers eliciting moans from her. He wanted to move faster and yet prolong this ecstasy of being inside her. He nipped at top of her breasts leaving satisfying little markings all over her. He wanted her to know and remember who she belonged to. Even though the way her insides clenched around his manhood pro
"My baby?" The first thought that came to Crystal when she woke up and felt her stomach that everything had been a dream and her baby had been stolen by Indiva. As tears of agony came to her eyes and she tried to move, her hand was held by Ace. Tears in her eyes, she tried to speak when he placed a small kiss on her forehead. "Our baby is safe. She was just too small so Juan has taken her to a makeshift care unit.""She? We have a baby girl?"With a loud exhale, Ace spoke," Yes sugar. We have a little baby girl..."Crystal frowned at the weary tone of voice and questioned tentatively,"You are not happy?"Once agian, he leaned forward before placing reassuring kisses all over her face. "I am very happy. Just worried about the future...""Why? Is there some other villain posing as a threat?" Crystal asked wth a trace of fear."No! Sigh! Crystal... our daughter..." As Ace left the words hanging, Crystal widened her eyes, all thoughts of negative thoughts running through her...She held h
The silence in the night continued as scene after scene continued to change showing the siren's plan to kill the Goddess by luring Luna Crystal. A strange murmur raced through the crowd as everything continued according to the plan of the siren and Luna Crystal was separated from the battle by Ace and the siren. They watched from his eyes as he gazed worriedly at his wife who was suffering discomfort and seemed to be rubbing her belly continuously. Because the siren had been made with Indiva's magic she was well aware of the magic and easily led them to Indiva. But instead of engaging in a war, they had not expected that Indiva would disappear into the woods followed by Aenora. As Crystal would have followed them, Ace summoned Doyen and spoke to Erin with their mind link.”No. Wait here. And fight with me. Our people have already spread through the forest, she won't be able to disappear easily." They watched as the Luna Queen immediately stilled and followed the black wolf’s bidding.
“I know what they said… They said I ran away and shook hands with the enemy. I know what they said…They said that I betrayed my mate. I know what they said… They said I fell under the spell of a siren. I know what they said…They said I was lured away by the thirst for magic and power… kidnapped by lust. I know what they said…They said that I would not return to my mate…be killed by the Goddess I was meant to kill. I know what they said…”The small wisp of smoke that had arisen from the witch’s hand slowly took the image of Alpha Ace in the middle of the dark sky. With every word the smoky Alpha spoke, the chillier everyone felt. These were indeed the rumours that had been spreading through the ranks over the last many hours but to hear them from this wisp of smoke in such a voice was way too scary even for the most hardened shifters. It made them think of ghosts.The witch herself trembled and gulped as she uttered a few words, tightening the smooth lock of hair in her palm and spoke,”
Dissent spread through the army as the werewolves questioned Alpha Ace's presence beside Goddess Indiva at the beginning of the war while the foxes fed the fire of rumours. Even as most of the shifters would not dare to question either Crystal or Ace, out of sheer fear, they did not seem to have any qualms about discussing the same and spreading rumours. But nobody knew the truth of the matter as the Goddess had been defeated without any witnesses. Using this momentum the fox shifters questioned Nate," Beta Hunter. The Queen is still in labour. And the others are still in recovery but what about the Queen's consort? What about Alpha Ace? We all saw him standing there right next to that Goddess and whoever that woman was. Did he fight on their side? Has he betrayed his mate? All of us agreed to an alliance not just with the queen but also on the trust of Ace Hunter's mate and the backing of the warriors of the Moonhunter Pack. But now it seems Alpha Ace was not a part of this war. So,
As Crystal struggled to breathe through the contractions, she hoped and prayed that her baby would survive. Tears of happiness escaped her eyes. Her baby had decided to come just after the threat had been eliminated. Now they would be able to live peacefully. She would not have to constantly look over her shoulder in fear. But unknown to her, a certain threat still thrived. The fox clan were known for their cunningness but also their selfishness. At this moment, two red foxes scoured the remains of the dead. Like scavengers, they also looked for something from the dead and did not 'waste' their time in mourning their comrades. "Dam* it! Where is that box? Are you sure it is not there where that Luna buried the heart?" Grumbled the female vixen as she tried to look for the small box which held Indiva's sealed powers. The other fox glared at her and spoke sharply," Keep your voice down! I know it is not there! Do you think the Luna will be so stupid to put it in a place where everyo
As the net was cast and Indiva prepared to disappear, Aenora was not going to be easily defeated. Summoning all her powers, Aenora filled the air with pheromones so strong that the air started to feel sickeningly cloying. While Erin in her wolf form was barely affected other than feeling a bit hazy, Goddess Indiva, with little and now almost exhausted power, was forced to her knees. But Indiva was not going to let go so easily and continued to chant the spells, tightening the hold of the net on Crystal lest the wolf tries to escape or attack her. But Crystal seemed uncaring and unaware of her surroundings. Probably the shock of losing her mate and having to live with his betrayal seemed to finish her will to live. But Aenora- the siren on the other end had gone crazy as she continued to attack Indiva until finally, Indiva was unable to escape and finally lay panting on the floor as their almost exhausted powerful auras glowed faintly around them,. Seeing that she had brought the vill
"Do not forget that I am still a Goddess, Aenora," Indiva thundered. "It still holds the binding power of the heavens!" The siren snorted and narrowed her eyes, "And I don't think that you will find a way to say the words in such a way that the promise would be circumvented? No mistress. You will give me the box." Placing one hand behind her back, Indiva curled her fingers and urged, "The box is of no use to you, Aenora. It is mine. Ask for anything and I will give you." Instead of replying, Aenora let out a shriek and jumped at Indiva who was about to cast a curse at her. Indiva fell to the floor while the box slipped out of her hand. Kicking her in the stomach, Aenora jumped towards the box only to be hit by magic and thrown against the walls. As the Goddess and siren continued to fight, throwing curses t each other, two pairs of eyes continued to stare. A while later as it looked no one would be lost, a loud howl broke through the woods. The wolf's howl was filled with agony an
Aenora hurried behind the tiny bird with narrowed eyes. She needed to see where Goddess Indiva was going. That Goddess wanted nothing more than all the shifters to be eradicated and Luna Crystal to lose her life. And yet, now when Crystal was about to engage in a fight with Ace, the goddess was fleeing instead of staying to help or watch. Aenora searched the sky as the sun's rays hurt her eyes, looking for the tiny bird which had disappeared into the sky. Was Ace correct? This Goddess Indiva had only planned to use them and then kill them. But she had promised that if they succeeded in defeating Luna Crystal, she would let Ace and her leave together so that they could live happily... The beautiful face turned into a scowl and she touched the late trunk of a tree as she ordered," Tell me where the goddess has disappeared."A small hollow appeared in the tree as it spoke," The Goddess has entered the secret cave at the end of these woods. Our Goddess Siren, the Goddess Indiva is in a t
No word was spoken as the rays of the sun fell across the sand. With a single raised hand, Crystal directed her troops to march forward. While the others almost seemed to have fallen into a trance at the sight of Ace Hunter, the calm determination in Crystal's eyes and gestures seemed to re inforce their energy. Yes... Luna Crystal hadn't just spoken words about fighting the loved ones. She was also prepared to fight those she loved.Soon, the silence was broken by growls, howls and the sounds of war. Bones popped as humans turned animals and attacked those who had hurt their loved ones. For the army they fought may carry the faces of their loved ones but in the end, they were not the same instead the undead were reminders of what they had lost.As the silence was absorbed by loud noises, Indiva turned away from the battle, uncaring whether her own army lived or died. Crystal was holding up really well for someone whose mate had just cheated on her. She stared intently at Ace and Aeno
