JwgstoutJust one today. Have a great weekend! I cant wait to post what happens with Lamia, Travis, and Oliver on Monday.

The Beta & the jewel thief - book 6 Chapter 43 – Torture Me a Story
LAMIA A roar so loud and so enraged shook our room as Arcas, Mathias's beast voiced his pure outrage and wrath at what Travis just said. His possessive and protective side causes him to rumble and shake with the knowledge. I hung up stunned into silence. Or so angry that I couldn’t even comprehend my emotions or form a single thought about what Travis just told me. “Lamia.” Mathias tries to get my attention, his voice harsh and grating as he desperately tries to control his own anger. I heard him but I was struck dazed. I can feel my heart thumping harder, gradually building up to a panicked pace. My breathing becomes heavier. I’m lost for words. I pinch my arm to make sure I’m awake and not imagining the phone call I just received. That this isn’t a dream. I want to think this is a joke, but I know Travis would never joke about Oliver. There was nothing remotely funny in relation to that mutt and what he did to us. What he let happen to us. “Lamia?” I tilted my head towards my

OLIVER For The first time since Alpha Travis had locked me away in this cell, and I must confess it was nothing less than I deserved, the sound of multiple steps rang out from down the other end of the long corridor. The musty dank air shifted, becoming thicker. Even with my wolf as weak as he was, I felt her power. I smelled her sweet scent. Wafting through the stagnant air of the dungeons. I smiled to myself. I didn’t think Travis would do it. I didn’t think he would tell her. I guess all this reveals is one; he was ready for me to die. Two; Travis was scared of disappointing his queen. I suddenly felt nervous. My hands became clammy and started to slightly shake. My heart began to beat harder, and the thudding of my organ pulsed through my ears. I hoped to make an escape from the life I grew up in, in Bhakhil, but my plans were foiled. I was looking for an out. A way to leave everything behind and find out who it was I really wanted to be. Unfortunately, there is no light at th

LAMIA I stood listening to Oliver, listened to what he divulged until I no longer could. Knowing what I knew and what Oliver has just told me, my wolf and I were beyond mad. Anger didn’t even scratch the surface of what we were feeling. Silas and Orion had their own agendas, they were both dead, and we had no need to worry about them anymore. But Senko had been there from the beginning. The story Althea told us about him coming to Tolba, the way he left, had been a lie. Not on her end, but Senko’s. He had discovered their secret. He went willingly with the friends he had met before reaching Tolba. He wanted to create a new race. An army and wanted my DNA to do it with. We of course, already knew about little Zane. But were there others? Others he managed to clone from the DNA of mine and Zane's unborn child. How did he even obtain it, as Oliver told us, he was killed two years prior to my capture by Silas. I was ready to walk away, to let him die until he opened his mouth again. “

LYRIC We had only been back a week and already King Kellen was sending me out on a mission again. Taking me away from my son yet again. Even when I was pulling a heist and working for Miko, I had never spent this much time away from him. I understood, I was the link between those who knew Shadow. The person who knew the workings of the underground more than most. Still, I didn’t like the idea of leaving him again, especially as the threat to him was increasing. And especially as I saw firsthand what Shadow could do. The evidence of his power was probably still scattered around the Golden Circle pack's border, and it still lingered in Jonda. The black veins that plagued her had almost vanished, fading to a deep hue of pink. Not fully gone but receded. Still, she lay unmoving, the child in her womb growing and Rhett by her side. It didn’t look good for the female. Supposedly, once marked by her mate her wolf was meant to emerge. There is yet to see any evidence of that. Truth be t

MIKE “I’m so done with this shit,” I tell Kellen rubbing my tired eyes. We had been in his office all frickin’ day after Lamia’s proclamation that she was going to hunt down Senko and then Mathias's phone call. All I wanted to do was go back to my childhood room and drown my sorrows, reflect on my misgivings. even letting Duke out for a good run would be better than going over documents and maps. Personally, I thought we were being a bit premature. Tyron had been questioning our prisoner. Twenty-Nine. We let the prisoner stew for a few days in one of our least comfortable cells below the palace. Tyron was still working on obtaining valuable information from him. But the creature had been holding strong against any method we had currently used. I wanted to question him myself. Maybe my methods would be a little more persuasive. But noo! Kellen had me here strategizing against an army of more weird fucking creatures. Because Crawlers weren’t enough. I call them creatures because

LYRIC After leaving Queen Tala with Rogue, I headed out of the indoor training grounds. Still feeling full of energy. ‘Let me run.’ Note said, she too was needing to expel some energy. I looked at the tree line in the not-so-far distance just beyond one of the royal gardens, ‘Okay’ I told her, internally smiling when I could feel her excitement and her tail mentally wagged at the prospect of stretching her legs. I hurried to the trees and looked around. Finding no one near I peeled off my shorts and sports bra, shivering at the icy cold air, and shifted into Note. Note shook her fur out, lifted her nose, and scented the air, taking in deep breaths of our surroundings. Then, like a bolt of lightning, she was off. Dashing through the snow-covered ground, heading deeper into the forest. Weaving between trees and ducking under fallen trunks. It was exhilarating, just the feel of the dense wind rippling through her fur as her paws pounded against the crunching ground. The trees becam

MIKE I watch Lyrics wolf retreat wanting nothing more than to chase after her again and sink my cock into her tight channel. I groan swiping my hand roughly over my face and looking down at my still very erect and desperate cock. I must be a glutton for punishment for torturing myself in this way. Not that I didn’t enjoy it. I very much enjoyed touching Lyric and her body was so responsive to mine. Would I have liked things to be taken further? Fuck yes! I knew she wasn’t ready though. Baby steps. I needed to be slow and understanding - to move at her pace. No matter how much I wanted to shove understanding out the window and stomp all over it. When she was ready, I would make her mine. The last thing I expected when I left Kellen in his office with Tala, placating my wolf's urge to go out for a run, was to find Lyrics wolf deep in the forest playing around. Duke and I watched her frolic around for a few moments until the slight breeze that weaved between the trees changed direc

LYRIC The next morning, I woke up earlier than usual. I think I was still on a high from what transpired between Beta Mike and I last night. I still couldn’t believe how receptive I was to him and his touch. This time, I wasn’t scared or apprehensive about what he would expect. I never knew being touched in that way could be so… So thrilling. And tiring. I had no idea having an orgasm as hard as I came could zap the energy right out of you. It was so much different than when I explored myself. So much so, that I wouldn’t be opposed to it happening again. This thought and the actions of the beta from last night had me wearing a rare smile. A goofy one at that. I watched myself, and examined myself, as I brushed my long hair in the mirror after getting out of the shower. The goofy smile was still on my face. I peered closer trying to remember the last time I had worn a smile as genuine as the one I wore now. Except for when it came to Zane, I really couldn’t remember. That was a sa

Bonus chapter for: Rise of the Hunters – Book 7 RHETT 3 Years Later MacTire held my heart, but I couldn’t help visiting the borough I grew up in when out in the field. Recruiting new Enforcers for the INE. I found myself missing the familiarity of the streets. The people – half human, half shifter. Most without a spirit animal. A town, us half breeds built, grew, and protected. Hunters as Lamia called us but was a hunter? The town wasn’t big, but it was a place where half-breeds gathered – safety in numbers - we had become a close-knit community. Even still, we were constantly heckled and subject to the packs that surrounded us. Always trying to strong-arm our community or take what they thought belonged to them. Hybrids – Where one parent is a shifter the other human or no spirit animal – were born one of three ways. Either they were purely human or gained a counterpart that was weaker in comparison to full-blooded shifters, or there was us. The ones like me. A hybrid. Neither
The Beta & the jewel thief - book 6 Epilogue – Far and Away
ASHE I found Aodh, sitting regally at the top of Mint’s mountains. A throne made of stone. Cold and sharp just like the god of the underworld. His face was dark and impassive. The hatred inside him poured out and I could feel his disgust with this realm hanging in the air. “You dare come before me halfling.” He sneers as I make my presence known. I brush off his rude remark. His power has no hold over me. “How long will you keep the Moon Goddess imprisoned?” I watch Aodh's expressions carefully, but he gives nothing away. “Until I get what I want.” He remarks with a flat tone after a moment of silence. “Don’t be coy with me youngling. You are in my realm now.” I snarl back. A little of my beast showing. “You forget your henchmen are dead. My Knights still live.” “I will kill them!” He pounds his large fist against the stone throne, stating a matter of fact, his red eyes holding no lies. “For what? Because Inanna had been promised to you by her father centuries long before? The
The Beta & the jewel thief - book 6 Authors Message
Thank you for reading The Beta and the Jewel Thief - Book 6 of the Delta's Daughter series. I would like to kindly ask you all to leave me a review on the about book page. This helps me as an author and my stories get noticed on the app. Just a few words and a great rating would be appreciated. Now I know I left this book with another cliffhanger... You still love me I know it. ;)I also know there are a few questions. Not everything could be explained, the story had well superseded any of the other books in regards to word count. In the beginning, it was always thought that the story was more about Lamia and Kellen's wolves than it was about them. Throughout the series, it has been hinted at that Inanna was always promised to a god of the underworld by her father (Aodh). It seems as though Ashe and Ascena (who is originally Nessie, Inanna's daughter) had this planned from the beginning. To have the next immortal child come into this world. In book three Kellen was given his life b
The Beta & the jewel thief - book 6 Chapter 72 – The Beginning of the End
LYRIC The aftermath of war was something to behold. The atmosphere was thick with melancholy. A pensive sadness gripped each and every one of us. Were we happy that the fighting had stopped? Of course. But no one would cheer or rejoice. There would be no celebration. Because we didn’t win. We were lucky. Those of us that survived. We had lost many. On all fronts. Including the Changelings and rogues who ended up joining forces against this other realm god with us. Under the command of the rogue, they called Oliver. Mike begins to take control of New Moon's army. Shouting out commands. Note retreats to the back of my mind, not far, but far enough to rest. The aches in my bones set in, and the sting of wounds where they had already begun to heal, linger. The dark-skinned werecat comes to stand next to me, She points the short sword in her hand across the jungle plane to where King Mathias stands with a woman whose skin is as dark as night, her hair a flowing white, shining like th

TALA Winds whipped through the trees as night fell across New Moon. My wolf, Mora, had been roused all day, feeling uneasy about her mate being so far from us. It had been snowing for hours, mixed with lashing rain. Connor slept soundly whereas Jonda’s child was restless much like myself as I kept checking in on her every hour. Jonda was only down the hall, Olivia and Lizzy stayed with the child. *Tala!* Olivia pushed through a mental connection. Her voice was rushed and distraught making my wolf’s ears perk and fur hackle. Without thinking I scrambled to my feet from where I sat by the window in Connor’s nursery. My gut was twisting with dread and a feeling of dread in the pit of my stomach. Olivia’s voice worried me. I raced out of our suite and down the hall. Greeting Olivia at the door to Jonda’s room. “What’s wrong? Is Jonda, okay? The baby…” “She won’t come down. She’s gone mad! Her marks!” Oliva pants in a panic. “The guards they tried…” Without waiting I brush past her

SHADOW My beasts begin to growl and shake. Their snarls and attention concentrated on the young females that cross the field we currently march across. The darkness curls around my veins and I hush the beasts to settle. “Patience my wild ones,” I say as the females draw near to the front of my army's line. Just over the crest of the hill, where the jungle meets the dense forest, the warriors of Cambiador lay in wait for me. I can feel my son's blood, his magic lingers in the air, it calls to me. And so do these three young females who approach. It would be favorable for the Grimalkin to side with me, but that ship has sailed. And unfortunately, he will die alongside his brethren. “Master,” The young girls reach me and kneel down. From the pocket, of one she pulls out an object and instantaneously the darkness unravels and travels down my arms to my fingers. The inky black shadows strained from my body reaching towards the object in her hand. Her palm opens and the shadows grasp wi

TALA Meanwhile at New Moon Shrill screams sound from down the hall. With Connor in my arms, I raced towards my sister’s anguished shrieking. I barely notice Olivia and Lizzy behind me as I rush to Jonda’s aid. I fling the door open and Connor begins to wail. My eyes land on my sister and I almost drop my son at the sight. She’s doubled over clutching her large stomach, blood trickling from between her legs, soaking the purple gown she wears. “Jonda!” I cry out with alarm and concern. Immediately I link the pack doctor to come quickly. “Oh my!” Olivia exclaims behind me with shock. Followed by a sharp gasp from Lizzy. I hand Connor to Olivia, “I already linked the doctor.” I say with a rushed breath, quickly crossing the room to my sister's aide. Lightening flashes in the evening sky, illuminating the room and Jonda. That’s when I see the marks on her body begin to move and swirl, crawling across her skin. Becoming darker by the moment. “Jonda. Come lay down please.” I tell her

LYRIC Some drive and others run in their wolf form alongside our convoy as we rush towards Cambiador. The trip takes two days from where we were in Lewe to reach their borders. Kellen and Mike keep in constant communication with Rhett and Alpha Travis who are already at the border of the werecat kingdom. The tension in the car is palpable. All of us wondering if this is it. If this is when we face Senko and his army. The warriors are in good spirits, for some, it is not their first battle. For others, it would be a first. Their lack of worry is what has Note and I on edge. After what I witnessed at the Golden Circle Pack - I want to scream at them. I want to pound it into their heads that they should be afraid of this Shadow Witch. Of the creatures and not quiet humans he has under his command. I’m looking out the window from the back seat of the car I share with Kellen and Mike. I tune out their conversation and think of Zane. It was him I was fighting for and our future. Maybe M

MIKE I ran in my wolf's form, letting Duke take charge and lead the way through the kingdom's forest. We knew these woods like the back of our hands or paws. Could probably navigate the terrain with our eyes closed because we had run through them so much. Duke speeds up when catches Lyric‘s scent. We were spending as much time together as we could. Kellen and I were leaving in a couple of days with three teams of elite warriors heading to the border of Lewe to look for the compound. Rogue would join us, and Tyron would stay back to protect the kingdom with my father. Usually, it Would be the Delta going but for unknown reasons he wanted Tyron to stay back and man the palace. Lyric was also staying behind. On one hand, I was happy for Lyric to not be in the thick of a fight, on the other I didn’t like the idea of being away from her. It was making me apprehensive just the thought of leaving her. Duke catches up with Note and nips at her hind legs playfully. We had been out here for
