The breeze was cool and I was grateful as it allowed me to calm myself as we strode along making our way down and over closer to home. For the last 100 feet, she didn’t speak and I waited as I knew my mother was gathering her thoughts and looking back maybe making it so we weren’t in earshot of anyone especially anyone who would be listening to that would report to the High Priestess. I tried to gather my thoughts and prepared for her questions. “So are you going to tell me?” She finally glanced over at me and I speed up my walk to match hers. I decided to play dumb as the best first option. “I’m not sure what you mean mom.” I shrugged my shoulders and took in her dark brown eyes staring at me. My mom was truly an amazing woman and beautiful too. She was so comforting and warm and I was grateful she had picked up on what might be happening rather than my father who would have been furious I was even engaging another person before I was for sure they were my mate. “Rogan, ar
I did my best to keep walking and prayed -to the goddess that I could just get to my room without her saying a word. I was through the entrance and making my way through the formal greeting area. “Stop!” She yelled and I froze at the impact of the words. I slowly turned around to see her face redonned with fury. Red like I had never seen and I could see Laura’s face behind me frightened as I was with the anger she yelled, “Kellina sit down now.” I am still as I possibly could while still moving made it to the chair next to me and used the armchair for grip and strength. She came up to me her eyes directly on my face looking at me all over as if she was trying to see more than was there. I was terrified but my wolf was desperately trying to get me to rage which I was able due to my fear silence my wolf and put it in a block of ice until this was over. I looked up to meet eyes with her. I felt like she stared me up and down for hours but was likely more like seconds. “Tell me rig
My head was spinning of all I had witnessed. I realized this evening that I should have been so much better to my fellow priestesses for so long and I regretted it all. I made a new proclamation to myself to take more notice of all of them and truly get to know their spirits in their hearts. I was even more grateful for Laura, Caroline, and even Sophia for being so brave. We agreed to speak further after my birthday ceremony and I’d hoped I could match up to all of their dreams of who my wolf could be. I was getting more nervous by the minute and thought Laura could be crazy for thinking my wolf would be powerful because after that slap by her, The High Priestess, I felt like anything could break me. I rubbed my cheek thinking to myself and looking towards the time as it got closer to midnight. Was I really brave enough to go out to the garden and meet Rogan and goddess help me if we were spotted? Still, I did want to see him and longed to thank him for all he had done fo
My heart was full and enthralled with her porcelain skin and her fingers tantalizing my body as she became a braver explorer. I took in her words deeply and concerning. She was so worried and my anger was intense at how the high priestess had treated her let alone slapped her. I had to admit I hadn’t thought my statements were that surprising that she would in the end take it out on Kellina. I had to be more careful with my words and actions around her because nothing in me could bare the idea again of me being the reason she was hurt or upset. It killed my entire insides but I knew we didn’t have the time nor the luxury of me acting on any of it. Instead, I took her in as she stood there in the moonlight with beautiful tendrils of hair escaping her usually down hair almost past her small slender butt. I was desperate to squeeze it and run my fingers through that untamed hair, but she had made it clear I needed to keep my distance. I should have paid closer attention to
The house was a buzz when I woke up even though it was early in the morning. I went out to the kitchen and was greeted by so many of those I’d spoken to the night before. Sophia gave me a small wink from over by the sink and I realized that there was so much more to these women. Laura was there putting together what looked like a breakfast sandwich and my mouth watered. She motioned me to come over and I complied. “Here I was making this for you.” She smiled. I took a look and knew she had paid attention to me all these years. It was a fried egg with crips bacon smothered in cheese topped off with toasted honey wheat bread. “Oh my goodness thank you! I am starving!” “I had no doubt. You had a very active day.” She winked at me with all of our secrets shared in our eyes. I took a bite letting the cheese and flavors sizzle in my mouth as she chuckled beside me. “So what is on the agenda today.” Laura straightened up, “Right, last dress fitting, then perhaps
I went to my room and gave myself a moment as I prepared for what the day would look like. I grabbed my phone quickly and I sent Rogan a text. Do not come tonight, today is worse than it was before. We will need to wait until tomorrow. Please try to understand. I cannot risk it. I was standing there holding it when there was pounding at my door. Laura flew herself in. “Kellina, quickly reset your phone now!” “What, why?” She ripped it out of my hand before I could speak or do anything else. I heard a quick ding and I knew it had to be Rogan but before I could look at it. Laura was moving buttons all over the phone and bam moved into the reset and all of my information was gone just like that. “Shit! She’s coming!” Okay, now I knew it was bad as I had never heard Laura say a single cuss word out of her mouth. “Who’s coming?” I started to hear steps coming down the stairs. I could hear by the steps it was more than one person but who it was I wasn’t sure. They
I had pulled myself together and continued with the day as Laura had instructed. It was not as easy had I had thought it would be but once I was received by so many support priestesses it flew by. I just poured myself into helping. First working on decorations, then cleaning, and finally, I had to force myself to get through the food portion. That was by far the most difficult but I just did my best to think of others things. I felt the distinct hinting of my wolf rummaging through my head and starting to put ideas in my head that weren’t there prior. I knew she was becoming more and more powerful throughout the day and I wondered when we would finally be one and what the feelings would be like. Would I know how to control her? Would she be able to control me? I even found myself wondering what her thoughts were about the day. The best part about the whole day thought was I didn’t have to suffer through another meal with the High Priestess at least not on this day
It was easier than I thought to sneak away as everyone was so busy with preparations that nobody really wanted to go on the grocery run. The grocery run itself was fairly easy as everything was called ahead and ready to pick it up. I had to admit it was one of my favorite things to do as it was the one time I felt like I used to long ago when I was married. I was able to drive a vehicle, listen to my music and just be away from all the tradition and ceremony of every last thing. It was truly exhausting and then there was Kellina. This sweet beautiful girl had entered our lives just shortly after I’d lost my daughter and husband. Kellina was quiet and even-keeled with the fire that was so easy to see inside her. She just wasn’t aware it was there and as the years progressed it seemed only right that I did what I could for the sweet girl who was forced to live truly without any real personal connection if the High Priestess had it her way. The High Priestess took Kellina in not kno
I raced to get to them after hearing the large commotion from over a mile away. I entered the woods and could hear wolves everywhere. This was it, this was the attack. I knew some of the guards had been able to catch up to some of the red wolves but I was hoping it was too late. I smelled for Kellina and Rogan and finally, there was an opening and there it was. There was blood splattered on trees and leaves everywhere. I could see her naked body and I did my best to take a big sniff. Death I smelled death. I ran to her in wolf form changing as I went to human so I could help her easier. I grabbed my jeans that fell and quickly threw them on. I came to her side. “Fuck Kellina!” There was blood all over her and I didn’t know where to start. I checked and she had a pulse but where was the death I looked around praying to the moon goddess it wasn’t Rogan. There no more than 10 feet away was Melina the High Priestess with her throat ripped out. I was inhaling her death but I could smell
We walked to the edge of the woods and inside. I should have known where Rogan was leading me but between kissing each other every few steps and stopping for a few gropes and grabs here and there I was distracted besides I wanted this moment and so far it was perfect. I felt the briefest feeling of uneasiness as if someone was watching us but I assumed someone might have been because given everything I doubted that the Alpha would not ensure some extra wolves were patrolling. I wondered if it was Erin because I hadn’t seen him yet at the ceremony but then again I didn’t think I would. The thoughts drifted in and out of my mind as we came to the opening with the waterfall. The waterfall that had been our first time kissing and the first time we knew there were sparks nobody else understood or we yet. He grinned at me, “I just thought it should be here if that’s okay?” I nodded grinning with not a care in the world. He started taking off his handsome suit and tie. I tried to get my d
I barely remembered the dress Clara had me try on only the morning before but the last couple of days were a blur and my only focus was on Rogan. I had already had my hair done with a low braided bun that Resse supervised the entire time to ensure that my red showed true with the white and red blending into every braid. My makeup was very natural as Laura ensured and then my nails were painted with Sarah's overseeing ensuring that they were french tipped with a red ruby design on both thumbs. “You have to make sure you show your red priestesses side as much as your white priestess side.” She directed. It was a long afternoon of primping and prepping but many laughs were had by all the women and everyone truly looked amazing by the end. I liked mating ceremonies I realized more at the pack house I realized quickly because everyone was allowed to wear clothing that truly represented them. Sarah of course, in her deep red hat, matched her hair. Reese wore green which brought at he
The next couple of days swirled by in beautiful bliss. Rogan and I had finally committed ourselves and all that was left now was to complete the ceremony and complete the mating with marks. I had taken precautions to ensure I wasn’t going to get pregnant not even a day before the ceremony thanks to Laura. I just felt like Rogan and I needed some time to be just us before adding anything else into the mix. I probably should have told Rogan but I would when the time was right at this point there was just no real point. Instead, I enjoyed the next day loving each other inside and out. We had barely taken a breath out of our room besides a quick dress fitting that I barely remembered what the dress even looked like because I was in such a hurry just to get back to Rogan and us. The rest of the time we spent constantly naked touching and exploring each other with occasional stops to eat and sleep when needed to refuel ourselves. Now it was the day of the ceremony and there was a note sli
Rogan smiled sneakily as he untied my robe exposing my entire naked body to him. “Rogan….” I was trying to plead to him in some form but not sure what just felt a bit self-conscious but the way he licked his lips told me I should not feel uncomfortable. The lotion in his hands warmed to his touch. “Shhhh….You are sore baby but I still want you so bad, let me make this a bit easier on you.” I couldn't stop him at that moment as I was hooked on his naked body peeking from underneath his robe and those seductive eyes looking at me begging me to comply. He started by rubbing lotion on my stomach and then went up to the top of my breasts, encircling them and making sure to pay extra attention and gentleness to my nipples moving his fingers around and over them lightly pinching a bit as he went. He slowly examined each one causing me to moan to his touch and arch my back as my body started to take over with desire. He took advantage of me arching my back, reaching and rubbing my
At the words spoken, Rogan pulled me deep into his arms kissing me with his velvet lips. My heat below ignited and before he could I moved my hands up underneath his shirt pulling it up as my hands glided up his chiseled chest and pulled off his shirt. His arms went up without a fight and just as quickly he was pulling off my shirt. My bra was off just as quickly and his mouth devoured my breasts causing me to lean back and moan. His hands going to my pants and began unbuttoning them with easy strides. Not to be undone I came up from my own ecstasy of his touch and rubbed my hand up his leg to his already stiff election and unbutton his pants exposing his penis. For a brief moment before I was lost again in his touch I knew this meant he'd been out in wolf form and wondered what he'd been doing but then his hand went down pulling my pants off with one swift motion and I was lost once again in his touch.My hand wrapped around his cock rubbing it back and forth. He let probably th
Laura and I spent the remainder of the afternoon talking with me explaining a lot about my dreams. Laura was quiet asking a few questions here and there and I could feel the relief as I had let it all out to my mother. We both burst into tears when I told her what my mother said and I could tell she was truly moved. Rogan sent up a sandwich tray and sent me a message saying he thought this was what I needed. I wasn’t sure how he knew this is what I needed but it was. Laura had been the largest most important person in my life besides him and deep down I felt her as my mother. Sometimes the only thing you need in this world was your mother and I was beginning to understand that more than ever today. “Tomorrow is your dress fitting and I think every white priestess may be there so I hope that will be alright.” I nodded. “Kellina this part is important but I don’t think you should visit that Gorm until at least after the ceremony.” I went to protest. “I don’t think it will do you any g
I allowed myself to drift off to sleep from my tears. Sure enough, I floated up, and as much as I could control hurried my floating up above the packhouse and into the woods because I knew he was going to be waiting. As I touched down in the familiar spot and felt the leaves on my feet even though it wasn’t completely possible. I ignored the friendly loving smiles and stomped over to them. “So nobody wanted to mention we were direct descendants from the first red wolf? Oh, and none of you could tell me that you were killed by your pack?” I growled at them and I could see the surprise in my father and mother’s eyes but looking behind them there was my redheaded grandmother. “What do you suppose your anger will do for this my dear?” I fired right at her walking in the middle between my mother and father whose arms extended wanting to comfort me. “My anger is all I have left so it would appear.” I then fell in desperation to my knees right in front of her. “Because instead, I have
I waited for the guards to be out of sight making a few comments about how they couldn’t believe they could take a break and nobody would be watching him then assured Erin was at the front of the door. I approached him smiling and trying not to show how much excitement I had for what was about to happen. He looked annoyed and immediately flashed his phone showing Gorm now alone in his cell. “This is linked to my phone, Rogan’s, and the Alphas. I’m not sure if the Alpha is watching in real-time but you can damn well bet Rogan is.” I nodded in understanding. “Absolutely no funny business Kellina, you have powers that others don’t but you are not to risk yourself.” He glared at me then smiled looking me up and down. “Nice outfit by the way.” I rolled my eyes in response, “Am I free to go now, master?” I walked by him and he quickly shot out grabbing my arm. “Be careful with your words Kellina, I remember everything you say to me.” I could feel the heat he was putting off toward
