Selene

            After I had my family settled into Lucas’s home, I headed to the other side of town. My mother had insisted on going with, unwilling to let me out of her sight unless she absolutely had to. The first part of our drive passed in silence, my mother staring at me as she moved her hand as if to take mine before quickly placing it back in her lap.

            “I should have listened to you.” She whispered, finally breaking the silence. “Maybe if I hadn’t tried to force my own desires on you, you wouldn’t have ended up being attacked and killed.”

            “It’s ok, mom.” I smiled, giving her hand a gentle squeeze. “I was hard-headed and wrong.”

    Victoria I thrashed around wildly, snaping and snarling at the small man that had stabbed me. The silver dagger in my side burned like an inferno. I needed to get it out, but first I needed to disable my attacker. Fear permeated the air, the man no longer able to cover his scent as my jaws finally closed around his leg. Using the last of my waning strength, I whipped my head hard, slamming him against a nearby tree. His body stilled and I limped toward him. He was unconscious. ‘We have to get the knife out’. Honi demanded. ‘We can’t heal until it’s out.’ ‘I can’t shift with it in. If I do, it could hit something vital.’ ‘I’m going to try something. I need

    Lucas I woke to the sound of the alarm blaring, Selene curled into my side. I had managed to convince her to stay the night, both of us in need of the other. With a groan, she rolled away, stretching like a cat. “Good morning.” I chuckled, taking in the sight of her in a tank top and shorts as the blanket slipped from her body. “What time is it?” “Four thirty.” I responded, shifting to turn off the alarm. “Ugh, I’m late.” She groaned. “I should have been on the training pitch an hour ago.”&nb

    EJ “Well, hello gorgeous.” I grinned, making a kissing motion toward Selene as she strolled into the dungeon, her Alpha close behind her. “Your people brought me aa new friend last night. Was a little surprised to see a medic in these cells, but what do I know?” “It is getting a little crowded in here.” Selene responded. “If you behave, maybe we can give you some more comfortable accommodations.” “Give him the serum.” The alpha ordered. Selene tossed me a small vial of milky white liquid. “Drink it.” She grunted.&nb

    Zane “Guys, be serious for a minute. We need to get this place in tip top shape before Alpha Lauren’s prisoner arrives.” “Whatever you say Luna Zane.” Chuckled one of the pack warriors helping get the old prison back in order. I rolled my eyes and shooed him away, getting back to work myself. I had long been used to the jokes that I was Lucas’s Luna. Being his Beta meant I took on quite a bit of the Luna work until he found one. I had hoped that he would name Maggie, but when his actual mate turned up still alive and kicking, that threw a wrench in things. I didn’t care which woman he chose, they both brought something to the table, I just wished he would hurry up and chose. I had my own duties to focus on. &n

    Rory The pack hospital was oddly busy. There hadn’t been another large influx of refugees, but patient visits were almost back-to-back. I knew some of my frustration was wanting to return to my mate. The night before had been incredible. My hand brushed over my new mark as the memory of Victoria, and I entwined came flooding back. “Earth to Doctor Stevens.” One of the nurses laughed, snapping her fingers in front of my face. “You might want to stop daydreaming about whatever you’re daydreaming about, you’re getting a little flushed, if you know what I mean.” “Sorry.” I laughed. “I’ll try. Do you know where the Andrews file is? I actually popped out to grab it, it wasn’t in the cub

    Lucas I rolled over to find my mate had gone. Her side of the bed was cool, though her scent still lingered. A glance at the clock on the nightstand told me she must have left before dawn for training without waking me. I pulled myself from the bed, the sounds of children racing through the halls greeting me as I stretched out my stiff muscles. I chuckled to myself as I heard Abigail scold the girls about waking me, before pulling on a t-shirt to make my way out of my room. I had slept shirtless, with just my plaid pajama bottoms and I wasn’t sure Selene’s brother would be appreciative of me strolling bare chested through the house. “Good morning.” I grinned down at the twin girls who had been causing the ruckus moments before.

    Selene Lucas stared at me dumbfounded, not saying a word. I was beginning to think he hadn’t registered what I had said. “Lucas? Did you hear what I said?” I asked gently. “Maggie’s pregnant.” His response was robotic, as if he were answering on autopilot. “Yes.” “No. She – She wouldn’t. Not with my child, she wouldn’t run, not carrying my pup.” He stammered. “I think she ran because of me.” I whispered. Lucas roared, grabbing the nearest thing to him, and shattering it

    “We should move EJ to the prison.” I told Lucas. “Wouldn’t it make more sense to move Marcus?” He asked, peering at me from across his desk. “If Alpha Lauren’s prisoner really is a spy, they’re less likely to slip up with the head of the assassin’s guild in the cell beside them. Moving EJ makes more sense. We can put the suspected spy in the basement and release Marcus to work for us.” “I’m still not sure about letting Marcus out, Selene. He killed the medic we had in the cell with him.” “On EJ&rs

    “Damon, Felix, it’s time for dinner!” I called from the dining room. I smiled to myself as the boys stomped into the kitchen like a herd of elephants. Damon was the spitting image of his father. You could hardly tell the difference between pictures of them at seventeen. Felix resembled his grandfather with his mousy brown hair, but he had my striking green eyes. I couldn’t believe he was turning sixteen soon and would be finally connecting with his wolf. “Your father has to work late.” I told them, sitting the steaming lasagna pan on the table. “I expect you both to have your homework and chores done before he gets home. Am I understood?”&n

    I felt slightly guilty for leaving Lucas to deal with the execution of the spy Alpha Lauren had brought to us without me. He had agreed that it was too early for me to leave Damon with a sitter though, encouraging me to meet with Rory for lunch instead. Life had been hectic in the months since our wedding. We had only spent the weekend at the cabin, not wanting take too much time away from the pack after everything that had happened with King Jonas. By the time I went into labor, I had a strong group of elite warriors, and Victoria was more than ready to take charge for my maternity leave. With Fenrick by her side, there wouldn’t be any issues. I was glad to see that she was still making time for Rory with the added responsibility as I caught sight of them seated at the café waiting for me.&n

    I smoothed my gown, letting my hands settle over my protruding bump as I admired my reflection in the mirror. My mother had done an amazing job pulling everything together for the ceremonies. We had opted to have the Luna ceremony as part of our wedding, inviting the entire pack. Lucas had even set up a streaming option for the pack members that wanted to witness the event and couldn’t attend in person. “You look radiant.” Rory grinned, pinning my veil in my hair. At my mother’s recommendation, I had found a stunning empire waist gown to accommodate my growing belly. The lace overlay added the extra layer of elegance with the added bonus of hiding my white flats. Heels were out of the question. The more my belly grew, the more off balance I became. The downside w

    Selene “Thanks for fitting me in, Ror.” I smiled as I took a seat on the exam table. “I could use a little of whatever it was you gave me when we first got here. All this wedding, luna ceremony, and training is wearing me down.” “So, just some generalized fatigue then?” Rory asked. “I’m honestly just exhausted. A few days to sleep would probably have me ship shape, but there’s too much to do for me to do that.” I chuckled. “Have you and Lucas been indulging in a little bedroom rodeo since the haze?” “I mean, we finished the mating process so yeah.” I replied, not sure what my friend was trying to get at.&nb

    Lucas Selene glowered at me from the passenger seat. The other four had opted to take the vehicle she had driven to Cerathe in, leaving me alone with my very pissed off mate. I refused to make eye contact with her as I drove. I wasn’t really sure what I could say to ease her anger. Rory had shocked us all, killing the king while the rest of us had been forced to submit. The soldiers had backed off the moment she commanded them too, none of them certain what they were supposed to do without the king to give them orders. Daniel took charge from there, instructing the soldiers to find the King’s mate. King Jonas hadn’t had a mark, leaving us to hope his mate could survive his death. We had been wrong. While his chosen mates were alive and well, his true mate had succumbed to death moments after the King. The

    RorySelene was pacing, her face twisted in anger when we arrived where she waited for us. It had taken us about twenty minutes to catch up to her after she took off in her wolf form. I could tell by the way she twisted her hands together, something worse than just not catching up to her mate had happened. “Selene,” I whispered, handing her clothing to her. “What’s wrong.” “Lucas, they have him. He was being silvered when I got here.” She wailed. “I was too late. Rory, the King, is going to kill him. There’s no way he won’t. I should know; I was the first person assigned to take him out.” She paced as she spoke, her words laced with an ache I had never seen in her.&nb

    Selene “Where the fuck is he, Zane?” I demanded, barging into the Beta’s office. Lucas hadn’t answered his office or cell phones, leading me to check for him at the pack house. Instead of finding my mate, I found Zane. The guilty look on his face made it clear that he knew something about my mate’s whereabouts. “He’s in Cerathe.” “And you didn’t try to stop him? Are you insane?” I screeched. “You just let your Alpha waltz into the arms of the enemy.” “I swear, I didn’t know until it was too late.” Zane retorted,

    Lucas My mind worked over what Tyson has said on the training field as I watched my mate sleeping peacefully beside me. I wanted to believe he was lying, just trying to make me lose focus to gain the upper hand, but I couldn’t shake his words. Fenrick had lost all signs of Maggie in a small town called Millstone. He believed she had purchased a car that couldn’t be tracked before leaving the place. I wanted to believe him, but she was carrying my child and I couldn’t risk her being in the King’s clutches. Kissing Selene’s sleeping face, I slipped free of her arms and the bed. I had to know for sure whether Jonas had Maggie or not. The only way to find out was to confront him myself. I would link Zane once I was across the border and well on my way. I couldn’t risk him trying to

    Selene Lucas’s hands roamed my body, his erection pressing into my backside as we moved to enter the house. “Bath first.” I ordered, freeing myself from his grasp. I laughed as he pouted in response to my words. Rolling my eyes, I dragged him by the hand to the bathroom. “You smell like sweat, blood, and Tyson.” I said, scrunching my nose. “I’d prefer not to smell another man while fucking my mate. Now strip.” “Yes ma’am.” He chuckled, removing his pants and shoes as I filled the tub. He had left his tattered shirt behind on the training field, returning home in only his pants and shoes. The few places Tyson had managed to slash him had alre
