Council Member Ethan’s POV

I am getting a little concerned about Reed. I haven’t heard from him for a while. Normally, he will check in every few days, even if it is one of those stupid emoji signs I don’t understand. But right now I have heard nothing from him.

I walked into the Council offices as I had been summoned by one Council Member Charles. He is one of the more senior Council Members. There are 6 of them in total.

“Ah Ethan, your cousin still works for us, doesn’t he?”

“Reed? Yes he does. He is out on assignment.” I am surprised Council Member Charles even knows about Reed.

“I have a job for him. This task requires someone who is not a formal member of the Council. I need them to go to the palace and collect a statement from a girl who is under the protection of the Royal Guard. He should be able to manage that simple task, shouldn’t he?”

I got Reed the job here, as he and his brother David didn’t get along. David didn’t understand why Reed didn’t want to be

    Nix’s POV I saw to it that Reed went to bed without a problem that night. I don’t think he has been sleeping much. I’m still shocked by what happened, but I understand why he did what he did. I don’t get it fully because whenever we were together, he always acted sure of himself. He is obviously masking a lot of unresolved issues. But I stand by what I said. He can stay and be my Beta. But not in this state. I heard him in the shower in the morning, so I started making us both some breakfast. He’s already looking better. He certainly smells much better. He devours the bacon and eggs I have made. “Thanks Nix.” He says. I do not know what he is thanking me for. Nor am I prepared to ask him to explain. I simply responded, “No problem, Reed.” We remained in silence until we were both finished. Then he pats his stomach. “That was amazing.” There he is, the Reed I know. “I met a girl.” I announce now that I think he needs some good news. He may not want to hear that sort of conversa

    Reed’s POV I watched Nix walk toward the training field while I waited for the general. “Are you from the Wolf Council? Sorry, I wasn’t here to greet you. I have just got back from the hospital.” I heard a voice say. When I turned, I saw a tall man, probably in his forties, wearing an official-looking uniform. “The Wolf Council has sent me, if that is what you mean, but I am not really one of them. They just keep me around for low-level stuff.” He smirks at me. “They asked me to come and get a statement from a girl about something?” He nods. “I was also told you had the information?” He nods again. “Honestly, General, I don’t know why I am here or why you couldn’t just send the information across.” “It’s because they want Lottie and I refused to hand her over to them. They want one of their own to ask her some questions. Someone from their office sent some stuff to me today. They want your opinion of how she answers them. Truthfully, it doesn’t matter. They are going t

    Nix’s POV I looked at my friend on the ground. His lip is bleeding from the punch he had just received from Lottie. He can’t be Caren’s mate, not my Caren. This has to be a joke? Maybe it is a different Caren? But which way Lottie is trying to get to him, I don’t think it is. I can’t believe Reed is mated to Caren. Or that he ran from her. I stared at him, shocked. He has explained to me all the reasons he did it. But he did it to Caren, the most fantastic woman on the face of this planet, and he ran from her. I am sad for him but devastated for myself. Now, knowing Caren isn’t my mate. “She’s burning up.” Max shouts as he holds onto Lottie. Lottie will kill Reed if Max lets her go. I go over to help him control her. Her eyes flicker like she is about to shift. I don’t know Lottie or her wolf. “Diesel, can Lottie absorb my strength like Caren did?” I asked my wolf. “It doesn’t work like that,” Diesel tells me. So, I just grabbed ahold of her. Max has burn marks on his

    Summer’s POV Me and Nathan practically have to drag Eden out of the room. It’s amazing that she has found her mate and I can’t wait for them to meet. It is such a special occasion, or so I am told. Mine was different because of how it happened. But once I accepted the bond, it was amazing. Eden isn’t aware that we can’t allow her mate to mark her, not yet. She can mark him, but he can’t mark her. Most male wolves won’t accept that situation. From what Florence told me, it’s something to do with her being a triplet and them being part of the Royal family. They all have to mark their mates at the same time and when it is a full moon. So the moon goddess can give them all her blessing at the same time. It apparently makes their gifts stronger. This was why my Luna ceremony happened under the following full moon after Nathan and Dawson marked me. Nathan and Dawson didn’t let me mark them until that point. I looked at Nathan as we stood outside of Eden’s bedroom. “That was h

    Ethan’s POV “Run, just keep running.” I begged my wolf, Greg. He is exhausted. We have been running for hours. But I know he is no match for the protection detail. His only hope was when he found a stream and ran down it for a few miles. This masked his scent. But it only bought him a little time. The protection detail are trained trackers and killers. I don’t stand a chance against them. I am surprised I have gotten this far unless they are toying with me? Greg eventually collapses. We have not done any serious training for years and I regret that right now. Wolves come running from all directions. Surely they can’t all be from the protection detail. They are growling and snarling, baring their teeth at him. Greg is too tired to fight in any way possible. He has done his best to save us. I shift into my human form. I stood naked in front of them. The wolves snapped in my direction. But they don’t attack. I think they are waiting for someone. I dare not move for fear they wil

    Nix’s POV Eden has not let go of my hand since we were in the attic. She is so beautiful. Her attitude sucks a little, but how else would a spoiled Princess act? It’s not really her fault they have given her everything she ever wanted. My mom raised me differently. We had nothing and appreciated everything; I saw how hard my mom worked for everything. I wish Eden had got to meet my mom. The next best thing I guess is Vance. “Is there any chance we can slip away so I can call my dad? You know, before we go speak to your parents, I think he should know.” She smiles at me before giving me a kiss. “Sure.” She guides me to a library. One of her dads follows us. They are not taking any risks that I might mark her. I pulled out my mobile phone. She laughs at how old it is. “What? I only need it to make calls with.” I ignored her and dialed Vance’s number. It rings a few times. “Hi Nix,” Vance says. “Did you get there okay? We were worried when we hadn’t heard from you.”

    Roger’s POV - (Former Alpha of Mountain Creek Pack) I was being escorted to his office by one of his warriors, an enormous man who looked like he could beat me to death within seconds. After he watches me go through the office door, I see him. The former Alpha of Blood Moon Pack, an old acquaintance of mine, Rick. He smiles as I walk towards him. Picking up something off his desk. He pulls out a blade from its sheath. “Here, take this. Use it as much as you can.” He says to me. “Be careful, though. It has a little something extra on along the edge.” he says to me as he hands both the silver blade and sheath to me. I am so nervous, but I can’t let him see how scared I really am. I have done nothing like this before. But I knew what I was agreeing to when I joined Rick and his cause. I knew Rick from my Alpha days. He is not the same as he used to be. He's become more aggressive and hostile. He told me what his goals were and who he was partnering with. At the time, I felt

    Rick’s POV I can’t believe he actually returned with her. I thought for sure the men would return and not him. But there he stands, holding my Freya. She has grown so much since I last saw her. She must be about 11 years old now and she is the spitting image of her mother. I do want to get a report of what happened while he was there. But first I want to see my granddaughter. It has been so long since I have laid my eyes on her. Walking up slowly to her. I carried a soft doll and two pictures. I didn’t have much from back then and the doll I bought in a shop a few weeks ago. But it is like the one in the picture. I doubt she will notice. She cowers away from me. I know I have to take it easy. I am a stranger to her. Which is not my fault. I really hope they killed her fathers and grandparents. That would make this day even better. “Hi Freya.” I said to her while I bent down to her level. “I am your grandpa Rick. Your mommy’s dad.” “I don’t have a mommy.” She replies. As

    Charlie’s POV “What are we going to do, Jacob? How did we end up losing track of so much time? Darcey is going to kill me.” “Don’t worry too much. Darcey will be at home, tucked up in bed. She won’t even notice you were gone.” Is he serious? Darcey will know. We’re trying for a baby, and she is demanding sex every night. Not just a quick session either! The past week she has been hornier than ever, and I have been running on fumes. She will know I’m not there. I knew it was a mistake. Letting our wolves go for a run before the blue moon. But Jacob insisted. He convinced me I had been stressed lately. That I needed to let off some steam. Now I was going to be in a bucket full of crap. Thanks Jacob, I think to myself. Our wolves took over, blocking us out. They only let us have our bodies back because they became dormant. Now here we are standing here bollock naked in the middle of nowhere, miles from home. “It’s going to take ages to get back.” “It’s going to take you ages.

    Stephanie’s POV “Steff. How are you feeling?” A voice asked me. “Horrible. My head hurts so much.” Am I speaking to someone in my mind? Whoever it is laughing at me. Did I actually die? I can’t have died. I would be back in the wolf realm. From the smells in this place, I am definitely not there. In fact, one smell is so very good, like delicious. I can’t put my finger on it, but it is mouth watering. “That’s our mate.” The voice says again. “I don’t have a mate. I don’t have a wolf.” “You do now. Selene sent me to you.” I slowly figured out that’s who I was talking to me. “There’s so much you need to know, Steff. Or is it Annie or Stephanie?” “No, no, no.” I’m so confused. “What I need to know is which wolf Selene sent me?” Whoever she is shakes herself and stands proud. She then pounds her feet. How do I know what she is doing? “Selene sent me to you. She said, I am to look after you. Ensure you get life-long happiness and joy. The love you deserve.” “Fine,

    Hecate’s POV “An opportunity has risen. You’re the perfect choice for the role.” I tell the couple that have been living an isolated life. They both look at me. “Selene needs to give a wolf less soul, the powers of the blue moon goddess. Only someone who is willing can accept the powers. It would mean you would have to live in the wolf realm. With him forever.” I said, gesturing towards her mate. “I can live here with him forever.” She responds. “You can live there forever and oversee your children and grandchildren. You can be with their wolves for all eternity.” I now have the attention of them both. “Can I visit them?” She asks curiously. “Occasionally,” I tell her. I know Selene will restrict visits, especially after Steff burned through her last body so fast. “I also want to negotiate with Selene about you overseeing any hybrids. They need support and guidance. Given your experience in this field, I thought it would be fitting.” She looks at me, then at the wolf at her side.

    Tripp’s POV “You are a goddam idiot. You just walked away from her. I thought you said you wouldn’t be rejecting her, no matter what?” I said snappily to Elliot. Still not quite believing he walked away from our mate. He walked away and shifted. “I won’t be rejecting her. It’s just a lot to take in. I needed to process everything she told me. She has lived so many lives, knows everything about us. Not to mention she is in our mate’s body. That’s just weird.” “You couldn’t have told her that?” I roared at him angrily. I have been Elliot’s wolf for a long time and that by far is the stupidest thing he has ever done. “Steff’s body was dying because of her frequent visits to earth, to save your family. Annie’s soul was gone, her body was dying. Why can’t she have a life? She has helped so many over the years and is a good friend to all of us wolves.” I said now, trying to reason with the fool. “Do you know her?” Elliot asked me. “Yes. She lives in the wolf realm most of the time with

    Elliot’s POV After my graduation, Dad decided to stop at Blackwood farm on his way home to the palace. Dad wanted to visit his mom’s grave. During my studies, I visited Blackwood farm many times. It was so quiet and away from the busyness of the school. It was a great place to study and Tripp, my wolf, loved being surrounded by nature. Dad visited whenever he came to see me. But he always got upset. This will be the last time he will visit Blackwood Farm for quite a while. I expect him to be worse today. I drove back in the early hours of the morning. I know Elizabeth and I have agreed I will start on Monday. But I am so excited. She is looking forward to some time off. My great aunt Elizabeth has been a great mentor since I started my training. I know my grandma has been as well, but she doesn’t practice anymore. Even though I am a few days early, she hands me my white coat. It feels so official putting it on. I can’t stop smiling as she gives me the tour o

    Stephanie’s POV “Come on Stephanie. We’re going to be late.” Charlie calls out to me. I know he wants to get to work early today. But, of course, on the day I am supposed to be ready early. Everything goes wrong and I am running late. Darcey gave Charlie a chance. I am thrilled she did. Knowing what he overcame puts my heart at rest that they will take care of each other forever. Since then, Charlie has become a valued member of the kingdom. Proving to Darcey and everyone else that he is a worthy mate for her. She made him work for it, though. Part of the agreement between them was that he didn’t join the royal guard. He agreed not only because Darcey asked him not to, but because he knew Addie and Avery would make his life hell. They still hold a grudge because of his actions and the emotional suffering they caused her. Instead, Charlie got a job teaching the kids in the kingdom’s school. He also organizes regular camping trips for older children and aids with a program to

    Steff’s POV I look at both of Annie’s parents. They look lost. “Will you keep her name?” “I would prefer to keep my own name.” Her mom looked like she was about to cry again. “How about a compromise? Combine the two. How does Stephanie sound?” She nods her head, composing herself. “Why is Hecate coming?” Annie’s father asks. “Annie’s body will need to be strengthened to house my soul. It won’t hurt Annie. I assure you.” Her father’s body seemed to sag with relief. “After the soul transfer. I will stay for a while. Let you say really say goodbye to her.” I don’t think they know what to say to that. But they will when the time comes. “No one is to know about this. It has never happened in the past.” I told them both. Just before Hecate appeared. Her appearance can be alarming if you’re not used to seeing her. Hecate has dark hair and dark eyes. For supernatural occasions, which this is, Hecate wears dark clothes and a spiked headpiece. She looks like an evi

    Darcey’s POV When I woke up, all I wanted to do was find Charlie. The images in the lake still broke my heart. But what I needed more than anything was a drink. Elizabeth had been hydrating my body with some intravenous fluids, but my throat was as dry as a desert. Then people started fussing over me. “Take it easy was Caren’s advice.” Esme assured Caren I would. Then she promised to stay by my side until I made a full recovery. “Ayla, you had better make this a swift recovery.” I told her. Although I love my sister, spending a lot of time with her could be challenging. In fact, I am not sure we would be friends if we weren’t sisters. We are that different. But we are always there for one another. I know Charlie isn’t going anywhere. Nat visited me, telling me she had confined him and Jacob to a suite on the first floor. “You make it sound like he is a prisoner.” Esme says curiously to her. “He saved her life.” “I know,” Nat says sweetly. “When Darcey is feeling bet

    Goddess Selene’s POV “You said we had more time.” Annie’s mom questions me. I want to remind her I am a goddess. But I really want Steff to have Annie’s body. “You do. I can now answer your questions.” I explained to Annie’s parents. Steff steps forward. “I am the blue moon goddess. I take care of the wolves in Selene’s realm during the blue moon and the eclipse. Your wolves know me well. The rest of the time, I am Selene’s companion. In my youth, my physical body hurt so badly it died. I now require a host body, a vessel to house my soul. Selene says you are considering letting me use your daughter’s body?” “Yes,” Annie’s father says proudly. “It would be an honor.” “I just want to know she will be cared for.” Her mom cried. “I have taken care of many bodies over my long life. Your daughter will be no different.” Her mom cries again but nods her head, implying her consent. “Steff, will you remain with them until Hecate arrives? I have business elsewh
