The Blackwater Wolves: The Reluctant Luna Chapter Ten: Meeting
Rune My father sits at his desk with a deep scowl on his face in contrast to his usual smile and calm demeanor. He may be the Alpha, but my father was always fair and just and made sure he never went around town taking the stress of the job with him. He always said that while it was his duty and obligation to the Pack to deal with business and keep them safe, it wasn’t their business to deal with the stress of it all. That burden always fell on him. Growing up I fucked up a lot, and I can admit I was a snot-nosed kid, but my father always tried to put me on the right path. I admired him for it. Alpha Landon was my father, but he was also my Alpha and I, like everyone else in the Pack, had to obey him. Of course, growing up this didn’t mean he was always strict with me and my mother. On the contrary, my father was always smiling with my mother. every chance he got, doing his best to make family memories. But now, as I enter the office, I know this won’t be one of those times.

The Blackwater Wolves: The Reluctant Luna Chapter One: Back to Blackwater
Willow My heart dropped to the floor when I got the phone call. In an instant, everything came rushing back, memories I’ve somehow forgotten over the years. My heart began to race as visions of a small town in Pennsylvania flashed before my eyes. Forgotten stories played in my mind and I had to steady myself on the counter with one hand when my knees buckled. My other hand gripped the phone so tightly I was afraid it might break. “Willie? Willie are you there, sweetheart?” Artie’s deep voice snapped me back to reality. Had it really been seven years? “Yeah... yeah.. I’m here.” I bit my lip as tears began to fall from my blue eyes so suddenly I didn’t notice them until they were streaming down my cheeks. There was a pause on the other line and then a sigh. “Sweetheart, I think you should come back to Blackwater.” When I didn’t respond he added “it’s what he would’ve wanted.” I stared out the window of my small New York City apartment on to the busy streets below. He was right.
The Blackwater Wolves: The Reluctant Luna Chapter Two: A stranger
Willow “Hey! Knock it off you two!” I pushed harder, but they both grew stronger than me. Back then, I could easily keep the two young boys apart, now they were too strong. Owen and Rune were always at each other’s throats and I was always there to step between them. It’s shocking that they both didn’t kill each other after I left. This is really not good. “When I am Alpha, you’ll never be able to touch her again,” Owen’s nails grew longer and sharper as they dug into the bar. “She’ll be under my claim and my protection.” That made me stop pushing them away. “Wait.. what?” They ignored my shocked exclamation. “Not likely. I will beat you, like I always do and like I always will.” Rune was no longer angry, he was calm and collected. He turned to me and smirked. “And when I am Alpha, she will be under my claim.” I turned to Rune. “What the hell are you talking about?” He smiled and it looked almost genuine. If I didn’t know any better I would say there was warmth in his eyes
The Blackwater Wolves: The Reluctant Luna Chapter Three: Mr. Green
WillowI don’t remember making it upstairs into my bed, but that’s where I woke up. I groggily woke up and wiped my eyes. My first thought was that this wasn’t my New York City studio apartment but then the memories all came crashing back. Papa. The bar. Rune. Owen. I quickly rose from bed and opened my suitcase, rummaging around for something to wear. I changed into a pair of skinny jeans and a black blouse and headed down the stairs, not bothering to zip it up. I heard footsteps and froze in the hallway. Oh my god. There’s someone in the house! I frantically searched around for something I could use as a weapon and settled on an old candlestick that Papa bought one day at a yard-sale. I walked into the kitchen with my candlestick above me head ready to strike. Owen was there, holding a spatula and dancing to some popular song playing on his phone. He turned to me and raised a brow. “What is this, clue? Miss Scarlet in the kitchen with a candlestick?” I laughed and dropped the
The Blackwater Wolves: The Reluctant Luna Chapter Four: Layla
Willow“Willie! Oh my, you are so beautiful!” Landon cooed as he enveloped me into his strong arms. His embrace reminded me of what occurred outside between Owen and I just a few minutes ago and I felt my face heat up. “Papa would be so proud! You’ve grown up!” He released me and I was able to get a good look at his face. Landon aged in the seven years that I was gone. His dark brown hair was specked with grey and there was slight wrinkling around the crow’s feet of his deep green eyes. He was handsome even in his older age and his sharp jawline was still pronounced, even as it was covered in dark stubble. Landon White reminded me too much of his arrogant son that I had to take a step back and remind myself that I was staring into the kind eyes of the older Alpha and not Rune White. “Thank you.” Landon White was kind man in his early fifties. He always took a shine to me and often let me get away with kicking his son’s ass when he was being a real prick. I admired him. He was a str
The Blackwater Wolves: The Reluctant Luna Chapter Five: Rune
Rune Willie Howard. Damn. She grew up. I smirk to myself as I bring a glass of aged whiskey to my lips. I savor the amber liquid as is burns it’s way down my throat and settles warmly in my stomach. I never thought I would see that blue eyed spitfire again. She grew out of her baby fat and into the face and body of a woman. Fuck. I could feel my jeans tightening at the mere thought of her body. Her perfect breasts. Her round ass. Her pouty lips. Oh the things I can imagine those lips doing... After the full moon, she will be mine. Mine to tease. Mine to hold. Mine to fuck. After the full moon, Willie Howard will belong to me completely and I can’t fucking wait. Willie is a piece of forbidden fruit and I can’t wait to take a bite. My wolf howls in response, wanting to finally be able to taste his mate. I frown. Of course, there’s still the matter of her little puppy dog. He’s going to be a problem. He is challenging me for Alpha but that isn’t what worries me. No. What worr
The Blackwater Wolves: The Reluctant Luna Chapter Six: Saving You
Rune “Open your eyes, coward!” My head snapped to the sound of Layla’s voice. She was pissed off. I haven’t heard Layla that angry since he last fought with Willie in high school. My blood turned to ice in my veins. Mate! Mate is in danger, my wolf howled, must get to her. Fuck. The only person that ever managed to anger Layla that much was Willie. Fuck. Fuck. Fuck. I began to sprint down the sidewalk. I dodged other Pack members as I weaved toward Layla’s voice. My blood rushed in my ears and I felt my heartbeat quicken. Adrenaline surged through my veins as I ran. “Not so tough now, are you bitch?” “Shit,” I cursed under my breath. She’s really angry. I have to make it. I have to be faster. I turned the corner and stopped dead in my tracks. There was Layla, standing next to Owen’s truck, staring at me with wide eyes. She was mid-transformation and her hands were wrapped around Willie’s slender neck as she dangled in the air and clawed to Layla’s grip. Her claws were d
The Blackwater Wolves: The Reluctant Luna Chapter Seven: Strange Happenings
Willlow I am absolutely mortified as Rune carries me down the street. Other Pack members snicker and gossip as we pass. They avert their eyes and begin to speak quietly. A group of younger teenage boys whistle at Rune who shoots them a glare. I am completely confused and embarrassed as to why people are acting this way. I look up at Rune and there is an unrecognizable expression on his face. Is it pain? It sure as hell isnt embarrassment. “What’s going on?” I ask, motioning with my hand to all the snickering bystanders. I’ve never seen the Pack act this way. Something flashes in his eyes, another emotion I can’t place and he purses his lips as he stares down at me. In a moment, his expression is replaced with another cocky smirk. “Nothing doll, they’re just excited for the Alpha contest. I’m sure you’ve heard about it?” I hesitate to answer. It seems like he’s lying. This would make sense, since it’s not surprising coming from him, but lately it feels like everyone’s lying to me

The Blackwater Wolves: The Reluctant Luna Chapter Thirteen: Stay with Me
OwenMy eyes snapped open to the unmistakable sound of Willow screaming. I sat up in bed with a start and threw the wool fleece blanket off of my body. I jumped up from the sofa and ran towards the stairs without a second thought. I climbed them two or three at a time, wanting nothing but to get to her. Was she okay? Why was she screaming? My heart nearly beat out of my chest and I stopped breathing until I made it to her bedroom door. I had no idea what I was going to find on the other side of the door but I was ready for it. Nothing else mattered in that moment. I slammed the door open and scanned the dark room with my eyes, searching for any signs of danger. Instead, all I saw was Willow's small frame, huddled close together, her legs drawn up to her chest. Tears streamed down her face as she visibly trembled. I immediately dropped my guard and rushed towards her. When she flinched at my approach I took a step back. "Willie? What's wrong? What happened?"She stared out in the da
The Blackwater Wolves: The Reluctant Luna Chapter Nine: Duty Comes First
Rune Ugh. Willow and I were having such a moment. She was actually leaning against me and accepting my touch, unlike earlier. Willow wasn’t pushing me away or squirming in my grasp. She just sat limp, her pale face wet with tears that she never should have had to shed, as I wrapped my arms around her. I stroked her hair and tried to calm her as best I could, even though my rage was growing. I was going to have a talk with Layla. She knows better than to do something so reckless. Not only did Layla almost kill Willie—another pack member—but Willow is also set to become the Pack’s next Luna. Wolf on wolf violence is strictly prohibited unless sanctioned and guided by the pack elders. Occasionally, business and other matters of life are handled this way by The Pack, but it’s very rare to see two wolves fighting in public. We have laws against that. Laws that Layla so recklessly broke. As soon as I was sure Willow was safe, I was going to round her up and head to my father’s so she can
The Blackwater Wolves: The Reluctant Luna Chapter Eight: To the Hospital
Willow “Aren’t you two just so adorable!” Alexandra gushes as she takes my temperature. Rune shoots her a glare. Hm.. that was odd. Alexandra examines my eyes and asks about my pain level. “Um.. maybe a 4? It’s just my neck..” “Let me see?” I unbutton what is left of my blouse up until the third button. My bra peeks out from the ripped fabric and I blush. There’s no way Rune isn’t staring at me, being he pervert his is. Sure enough, when I tear my eyes away from Alexandra I see Rune’s eyes darken with lust. I shiver. “Oh my.. these won’t need stitches thankfully, but I am going to cover them and use butterfly bandages. There will be some bruising for a few days but no major scarring.” Alexandra turns away and heads toward the cabinet where she grabs some peroxide and bandages. She pours some peroxide on a cotton ball and I hiss when it stings my neck. “I’m sorry dear..” “It’s fine.” I reassure her, it stings but it’s a fleeting pain. She skillfully wraps my neck in bandages
The Blackwater Wolves: The Reluctant Luna Chapter Twelve: Nightmare
Owen"You don't have to stay again, honestly, I insist." Willow stood before me, a pillow in her arms, her hair pulled over her shoulder to one side. She was once again being stubborn. I shook my head. "No. I'm staying." I didn't trust Layla, or anyone else, and I would be damned if I let something else happen to her while I was away. I wasn't going to let her out of my sight again. I couldn't forgive myself if someone else hurt her. She let out an exasperated sigh. "You aren't budging on this, are you?"I shook my head and gave her a grin. "Not a chance."She studied my face for a moment, obviously trying to get me to relent, but I had no intentions of budging. She should know me better by now. She rolled her eyes. "Fine. I see I can't get you to change your mind, you're stubborn as ever."That makes two of us. "But I don't want you to sleep on the couch again." She winced as if the thought of me on the couch made her feel worse than ever. I shrugged. "It's fine. Stop worrying ab
The Blackwater Wolves: The Reluctant Luna Chapter Eleven: Selfish, Forbidden, Heartbreak
WillowI felt Owen's eyes searing the side of my face the entire drive back from the hospital. He gripped the steering wheel with white knuckles the entire way to Papa's. I caught him looking at my bandaged neck multiple times. He gave me guilty looks out of the corner of his eye, always keeping his eyes transfixed on the road. We both stayed relatively quiet, only engaging in smalltalk a few times, as we continued our journey. Finally, when Owen pulled into the dirt driveway, I had enough. "Can you stop moping around, dude?" I hopped out of the truck and closed the door with an audible slam. Owen frowned and followed suit, locking the truck and leading the way up the stairs to the porch. "I am not moping."I followed at his heels, keeping my arms crossed. "Then why won't you talk to me?" I pressed. He turned the key I gave him into the lock and opened the door. "Maybe I just don't want to talk." I followed him into the house and he shut the door behind us. He stood in front of me
