105 - RykerHow did I f*cking miss this? There is no way we missed this.“Actually, it is possible if Kennedy is right and she is alpha born. Someone would have had to teach her how to suppress her aura. But she could do it. I don’t care either way.” Alpha is trying to keep me level headed. I have to stay level headed.“So you would have me kill them on sight? No questions asked?” I want his honest opinion. I have never questioned a kill, but this is emotional due to Kennedy and I can’t just kill at will because someone made me angry.“If she is as involved as it appears, she has tried to kill your mate more than once and will continue to do so if given the chance. So yes, I would kill Amy on sight. I don’t recall Janelle being as involved, just always around Amy.”“I need to check on Danny. Janelle is a favorite of his.”“RYKER, STOP!” I hear Kennedy behind me as I move to the truck.“Lamb, you can’t come this time. I’m sorry. I don’t want you to see this.”“The hell I’m not!
106 - RykerCalvin is walking up with Finn in silver cuffs. His wrists are red from the silver, but aren’t raw and bloody like he has been fighting them. It’s what most wolves do. What they don’t seem to understand is that the cuffs are designed to withstand even me. No one can break free from them.Finn knows what he is here for and he has accepted that fate. He thinks he is going to die here today. What he doesn’t know is that Alpha and I have searched through his and his wolf’s mind. He truly thought he was doing what was asked of him as the best course of action for these pack members. He now understands he wasn’t made to be the leader because he was the best choice of the options, but because he is expendible. Amy, his mate doesn’t want him, because of his rank and current status of being a rogue. No one deserves to suffer the way he has, the way my mate did at my hands. I won’t let it happen again.“Gather round!” I call out to the group of rogues trying and failing to s
107 - KennedyI hold onto Amy as she tries to get out of my grasp. I don’t break eye contact with her as I address my mate. “Go, Ryker. I have her. Stop him. He won’t come for her.” I whisper. This is something I am sure of and something she never thought of based on the look on her face. He kisses the side of my head.“I won’t be far, Lamb. Call if you need me.” I shove his chest as another roar comes from the other side of the arena. It is chaos right now.“”Urm,” She tries to get out of my grasp again, but I dig my nails in and find my aura is pressing down on her like hands on her shoulders. She is too weak for me. “He…will…He will come and save me.” She grunts.“If he was going to come for you, why are you still at my mercy? You did not get Ryker as a mate, you could not gain control of this pack or the rogue pack that you brought with you. You also sold out his hiding place. You are not worth his effort anymore.”She spits in my face. “Bullshit. He will come for me and kill
108 - KennedyI look around even though I can smell Ryker isn’t near me. His scent is on the pillow, but it is faint. I don’t think he stayed long after I fell asleep. I get up slowly, my body is so sore even my hair hurts.Slowly, one painful step at a time I head into the shower again, hoping the hot spray will unlock my rigid muscles. I take my time, it’s a strange feeling, but I don’t have any motivation to do anything right now. I know that the rogues who sided with us last night are being taken care of and anyone who went against us either died or is in a cell somewhere. I should check in on everyone who was affected by the fire, but I know that is being handled too. I can just feel it, the pack is such a well oiled machine that now the tasks have been set up and delegated, I am not needed. It’s almost like being back to square one, like when I first got here, but the difference is now I can feel the pack buzzing like a current under my skin. That’s new since yesterday.I d
109 - Kennedy“Why wouldn’t you trust your well dressed and very hot gamma?” Bennet smoothes out his jacket. “Anyone who looks this good should be trusted.”“Uh, no! That is an absolute lie. That is something Danny would say, not you. And, because you were in on whatever this is.” I gesture between him and I.“Just go with it Luna, not everyone is out to get you. And I want to go on record for being the first person to say how beautiful you look.” He holds his elbow out for me to take.“Technically, Sarah told me I was perfect first.” He scoffs while I pat his arm as he leads me to the formal banquet room. I haven’t had a need to go in here for a while. What are they up to?I won’t stall or hesitate though. I know Ryker is in here with Josh, Danny Greta, Alpha Ryan and a few other people who feel familiar, but I am still figuring out this people GPS thing and I can’t quite figure out who it is. I haven’t seen my mate since he put me to bed earlier today and I am anxious now t
110 - KennedyAn elder steps out from the crowd with a book so large and old only his werewolf strength is allowing him to carry it without an issue. He lays it on the table to the right of the knife and goblet then addresses the crowd.“Our pack has a long history of strong Alphas and even stronger Lunas. The Moon Goddess created the first werewolves to be protectors of the natural world. She chose humans with qualities like loyalty, strength, and courage to embody these animalistic traits. The transformation to wolves symbolizes our connection to nature, our heightened senses a gift to keep the natural balance. She gifted us with our unique connection to each other—mates and packs—marking us as her children and reinforcing our loyalty to our kin. This bond originates from her desire to ensure we would never have to face life alone.”He picks up the knife and holds it out to Ryker.“Kennedy, we now formally invite you to become a member of the Dark Moon Pack. Alpha, if you please.”
111 - KennedyI open my mouth to protest, but my wolf has other ideas apparently. Another wave of pain and nausea rolls over me and I curl into Ryker.“Why does it hurt so bad? And why the hell is it so slow?” I cry into his bare chest taking a deep breath in, letting his scent act like a balm for the pain. As soon as the pain is gone my raging lust for my mate is back. What the f*ck is this all about. I’m giving myself emotional whiplash, but I can’t seem to control it either. I scratch my nails down his chest and he growls again just before he pins my hands behind my back.“I definitely like this side of you and I will throw you up against the nearest tree as soon as this is all over now that I know I can’t hurt you all bets are off, but we…” He grunts as I rub my hips against his, “Need to get you through this shift.” He’s panting now.“What if this will speed things up?” I arch back so my boobs are on full display for him. I need him to touch me, kiss me, f*ck me, anything. I
112 - KennedyDeep breath in. Deep breath out. I’m alive at least. In. Out. I smell dirt, but more. It’s sweet with a note of decay. I smell mice, squirrels, rabbits and somehow I can smell how many and the difference between all of them. I can also smell Ryker and Alpha. They are here with me, and I can tell them apart too.“Look around, Kennedy. See the world with me.” My wolf says gently. What does that mean?“Mmm” Just thinking about moving hurts.“Lamb, how do you feel?” A nudge to my side sends a shock of tingles through me and I feel my skin ripple.I finally open my eyes to see that I am looking at Alpha’s deep red eyes, but he isn’t nearly as tall as he usually is when I look at him. I can see his dark black fur does have silver tips that make it extra shiny. It is also shades of black and navy blue. He leans in rubbing the side of his muzzle on mine.Mine?!? Oh sh*t! I have a muzzle! I shifted! I lean into him feeling our fur brushing together. I feel the pressure of
3- FinnF*ck my head hurts. It’s been a while since I have had someone actually hit me. I notice we haven’t gone anywhere though. I must not have been out that long. I’m kneeling, two warriors flank me. My hands are bound with silver manacles and these b*tches itch.I breathe in and I don’t smell any new bloodshed, that has to be a good thing. Kennedy’s command is still holding. I hear murmured voices, but my head is still buzzing and the silver is pretty powerful, dulling my senses.“Finn, where’s Dirk?” I look up to see Kennedy looking at me over Ryker’s shoulder, eyebrow raised. I’m not sure if it’s for me or her mate though.“I can call him here, if you want Luna.” This is the least I can do for her. I’ve wanted to be rid of him for a while. This was his last straw.“F*cking suck up.” The gamma doesn’t hide his irritation, which makes Kennedy’s lips turn up in a small smile.She reaches out to touch his arm and I can see his whole body physically relax. I wonder what that
2- FinnI am so tired of all of this. I have this infamous Luna, who is everything Amy said she is. I know she is scared, but she won’t show it or say anything about it. I can’t help but compare her actions to Amy, my mate. Amy has such lofty goals, I just want a home. I want to be done traveling from forest to forest. She promised this would be the last area we would need to travel through. Her father promised this would be the last. That this pack stole their land from them and once we have it back we can settle.That has been the plan this whole time and I can finally see the end. My mate will finally give herself to me after five years of working towards a goal. I find some ice for Kennedy’s face. Dirk never should have hit her, but he’s always been a loose cannon not dealing well with being told he’s lesser in any way. Add to that a little human Luna who has clearly given him a hard time insulting him and it was bound to happen sooner or later.Now I have to do damage con
1 - Greta“Again!” I yell out to the group. We have been working hard all month on getting stronger and faster. If there is really someone trying to get to the Luna, they are going to have to go through me and an entire load of warriors that are being trained to protect her.The best part is she has no idea, not really, and will be super pissed when she does find out. And she will find out, she always does. It’s like no one can keep a secret around her. We all just feel so comfortable with her that we spill our guts. It’s disturbing actually. She attends training and is actually pretty good for a human with better than average skill. We still hold back when we work with her though. It’s just a species thing. We can hurt her and that isn’t the intention, She lets us push her which is nice. We have been using the training as a way to get to know her movement patterns and tendencies. She’s already gone missing three times, on purpose. She is a pain in the ass in the best possible
That is all I have for Ryker and Kennedy… For now! I’m going to move on with Finn and Greta story. It has been festering in my head since I brought Finn on as a character. As always, he was supposed to be just a side character, here for mention to fill-in a need. he wasn’t even supposed to live through the fight! But, as I was writing, he grew on me, his story grew on me, his personality grew on me. And I felt the need to give him a HEA after what I put him through with Amy. But… I also decided to make Greta his mate! So heis going to have to work for her attention, and he’s been down that road before. The question is can he put his doubts about mates aside long enough to help her see she is worthy of true love and affection? I’m going to keep the story here because it lives in Ryker and Kennedy‘s world and I know searching in this app can be tricky. I will start the chapters at chapter 1 with Finn and Greta as the POV. For those of you who know me, my worlds are ever expandi
115 - KennedyI smile at him walking to Rayna’s other side. The healer hands my niece to Jeremiah. Rayna is panting, but glowing. She looks amazing for just pushing two giant babies out.“Well, we are going to have to have a birthday week to celebrate the four of us.” I giggle.“They are beautiful, Rayna, nice work.” Ryker comes up behind me wrapping me up in one of his arms, pulling the blanket back from our nephew’s face with the other.“Hey! I contributed.” Jer whines halfheartedly.“Do you have names?” I ask. Both twins are so calm just resting in our arms. “Of course we do. Now it’s just a matter of which ones. With twins we came up with sets that sounded good together. I figured if they are anything like their father, I am going to be yelling at them in tandem pretty often so they have to roll off the tongue nicely.” We all laugh. “I know which pair I like the best. How about you, babe?”“I liked all the names we finally agreed on. Whatever you want. You did all the hard
114 - Kennedy“Finn! That is so exciting!” I jump up to hug him.He pats me awkwardly on the back then sets me down and steps back. “I wish my mate was as excited as you are.”“Give her time. She’ll come around.”“I have heard that before, funny enough. It didn’t work out well for me then either.” He gives me a dark look.I pat his chest as I walk by. “But last time, you didn’t have me. And I like you and she listens to me.” I wink and walk away, his jaw on the floor.The rest of the night was amazing. Robin and a woman named Jean put together a dinner that was to die for. I talked with everyone and spent needed time with Aunt Beth, Jeremiah and Rayna. As Rayna and I are in animated conversation, Ryker walks up with his hand out.“Can I steal my Luna for a few minutes?” I slip my hand into his, no hesitation.He laces our fingers and pulls me with him, bringing my knuckles up to his mouth for a kiss. ”Where are you taking me?” I giggle and he smiles secretively.“You’ll see. I s
113 - KennedyThere is more pain this time, but the shift is also quicker. I still lose sight though, I need to remember to ask about that. I just seem to wake up in the other form.“Urgh. Why does it feel like a hangover?” I push up from my lying position on the ground and immediately regret it. It’s cold now. I shrink back towards the warmth I feel next to me.“Careful, Lamb, or we won’t make it back inside.” Ryker murmurs against the shell of my ear, wrapping me up more tightly in his arms. “Let’s get you dressed a little more to my liking when others are around.”He sits us both up and wraps his button down shirt around me, doing up each button carefully. He stands to put his pants back on then reaches a hand out to help me up. Slowly wrapping an arm around my back to pull me close again. “I really do like you in my clothes. I never thought that would be something I would care about.”I just smile at him, still processing all of this. Part of me is irritated, mad even that it
