Lux I couldn’t fall asleep after Silas left. My brother, my mom, Nadia, and a couple of other omegas were going to come with me to the Bloodlust Pack. My dad wanted to come to, but with David and Silas leaving this week as well, it made him hesitant to come with us. I get it. I’m not upset about it at all. He will come as soon as he feels like he can. Or once Kai takes the throne, then I think both my parents would come visit me frequently. We’re supposed to leave at 7. Silas came to see me around 3 and no one has come to get me up yet, but I can hear the faint hustle and bustle as people get up and start with their morning routines. I sigh heavily as I feel like there is an anchor on my heart weighing me down and making me feel as if I’m drowning. I miss Apollo. It is like a physical ache not having him around and it has definitely surprised me. It is just now the third day without being around him and it makes my feelings for him clearer. I am falling for him. I wouldn’t say tha
Silas This morning is awful. Of course, I was up late last night talking to Lux and wanting to leave everything behind just to be with her. I understand why she kicked me out. I understand why she’s against it, but it didn’t make it hurt any less. When I went to see Charlotte this morning, I was grateful, because it seemed like I might actually get some time with her without David. Now, imagine my surprise when I knock on her door and my shirtless brother is the one who answers. On top of him being the one to answer, his scent was mingled with hers and there was a mark on his neck. Then when Charlotte came to the door, her hair was tousled, and she was only wearing David’s shirt, which barely covered her privates. She didn’t even seem embarrassed for me to find them like that. Instead, she gave me a satisfied smile as she greeted good morning. Seeing the mark on her neck made Jax howl loudly. He is upset that someone else has officially marked his mate. I rolled my lips into my mo
Lux It was a three-hour drive before we finally arrived at the Bloodlust pack. I hear my mom and brother murmur about how many people seem to wait for our arrival. The number of scents that I can smell is overwhelming until I smell the one scent that seems to overpower every one of them. The leather mixed with dark cherries causes Kodi to give a purring sound, and it makes my stomach erupt with butterflies at the thought of being near Apollo. It’s been a few days without him and now that I’m close to him, it’s like my whole body is on fire at the thought of being near him again. The car stops and the door is opened, and my mom is the one who exits the car first. The crowd goes mad just from seeing the majestic Luna Queen. I hear a voice that I recognize as the Beta, Michael as he says, “Everyone welcome our Luna Queen Rieka!” People scream again and then out slides Kai and Michael announces, “Our future Alpha King Kai!”I notice specifically a lot of girls cheering for him. I’m su
Silas David mind linked me after Charlotte told him why I wasn’t coming with. He absolutely chewed me out on not doing enough for her. He told me how she’s crying and heartbroken because I don’t want a relationship with her and I’m not willing to fight for her. I could hear his wolf coming out through our mind link and I know that David and his wolf were both furious with me for upsetting Charlotte. I let him get his frustrations out and then we both blocked each other, and I lied down on my bed and wondered how I ended up here. I really wanted to try with Charlotte. She seemed nice, and the mate bond drove me to want to be near her. But she prioritizes David over me. I don’t necessarily blame her, though; he is outgoing and does huge acts of love, so she knows how happy he is with her. I swear, I’ve seen a new bouquet of flowers in her room every couple of days. I see how he whispers sweet nothings in her ear and makes her blush. They will look at each other as if they are the onl
Lux We’ve been at the Bloodlust pack for three days so far. I haven’t seen Apollo as much as I would’ve thought… I guess we’re using this as a trial run for how life will be like whenever I officially live here. Nadia has been around me a lot and I appreciate her companionship, but I feel like she is just avoiding the Beta, Michael. Apparently, the two of them are mates and did not get off to the best start. I’m not entirely sure what happened between them, but all I know is that he’s trying the best he can to get near me in an effort to be around her, but she hasn’t budged on her grudge against him. I’ve tried to ask her about it, but she brushes me off. We’re sitting in my room quietly and I wonder what I should do today. Apollo mentioned nothing, so I don’t know if that means he is busy with Alpha duties or if he plans to be busy with me. When I hear a knock on the door, I can’t help the anxiousness in my chest, wondering if it’s him. But I take a deep breath and immediately rec
Silas When I arrived at the Dark Moon Pack, Alpha Zane and Luna Lilly immediately greeted me along with two of their kids, Amber and Christopher. Their other kid, Iris, is back in the Royal Pack with Calvin, her mate. Amber and Christopher are a few years older than me and, from what I’ve heard, they haven’t even tried to find their mates. They haven’t ever said why, and I’ve never been close with them to ask. Maybe this trip could change that. Alpha Zane is the one who brings me to my room, and he asks, “So, do you want to explain your impromptu trip, Silas?” He looks at me with one eyebrow cocked up as he silently questions my presence. I sigh, “I suppose you could say I’m having some troubles with my mate. I thought maybe you could help me with my decision since you’ve rejected a mate before.” His lips roll into his mouth and it’s obvious it’s something he would prefer for not to discuss. I say, “You’re the only one that I know has rejected a mate before. I need to make sure I
Nadia What were the chances that I would be mated with the Beta of the Bloodlust pack? Why couldn’t I have been mated to the Alpha like Princess Lux is? At least the Alpha seems like a caring man towards his mate, even though she has a big disability. No, I end up with the man who thinks he’s heaven on Earth because he’s a high ranked wolf in a deadly pack. And apparently, he thinks all omegas should feel honored that he chose them to be ‘intimate’ with. That’s the way we met. I was making my way around the pack house as I was learning where things were because if I’m moving here permanently with the princess, then I need to know my way around. I could hear his grunts and growls and in between them, I heard the sound of skin slapping against each other as he proceeded to screw whatever woman he was with. I guess he was being too rough with her because she asked him to slow down and he snapped at her and said and I quote this verbatim, “Don’t tell me what to do. You’re just a low
Apollo Tomorrow, Lux is supposed to go back to the Royal Pack. I’m going to follow her in a couple of days and do what I can to maintain a good relationship with her and take care of my pack. Today, I should be completely focused on her… but my dumbass Beta, Michael, called an emergency meeting in my office. I watch him as he paces back and forth in my office and he looks at me and says, “You have to help me get her to stay!”I huff exasperatedly, “Who?”“My mate! Nadia!”My eyebrows raise, so Lux’s best friend Nadia is mated to my Beta… what a small world. I ask, “She doesn’t want to stay?” He huffs, “Look, I didn’t tell you about it whenever I found out because I was embarrassed.”Intriguing… I ask, “Why would you be embarrassed?”He pulls on his hair as he admits, “She almost rejected me.”I scoff, “What? You’re joking.”He shakes his head no and takes a deep breath as he says, “She overheard me doing… well, you know.”“No, no, I don’t. I think you need to elaborate.” I say and
Ten years later Lux Life is… good and it’s crazy. That’s honestly the best way I can describe it. Silas and I had Selene and Samson and after having them we thought we would be done. But, life had other plans because five years later we found out we were pregnant with another boy girl twin set. We named them Athena and Ace. Selene and Samson are now 10 while Athena and Ace are now 5. David and Charlotte had one more kid named her Penny. So, Leo is now 11 and Penny is 8. Iris said she would never ever ever have another kid after going through childbirth. So, she and Calvin are very happy having just Griffin. Griffin is now 11 years old just like Leo. Kai and Genevieve have been the busy baby-makers over here. They had Lincoln first got pregnant a year later with a set of twins named Marie and Avery. They were identical twins at birth, but through an unfortunate situation Avery died, but it woke up her vampire side. The only difference between the girls now is that Avery has red ey
LuxIt took a while before I could get out of Silas’s embrace, but I was finally able to call Marinette. I walked out to the balcony as the phone rang and I couldn’t help but smile when I heard her chipper voice, “Lux? How are you!?”I chuckle, “I’m good, Marinette, how are you doing? And how is sweet Marigold?”“We’re great. And she’s so big now, you wouldn’t believe it! How was yours and Silas’s trip?”“It was great. The moon goddess actually gave me might sight back. But we had some discoveries that happened. Um, any chance you could help me figure out if something might be in Leviticus’s journal?”“That’s incredible, Lux. And I’ve read the thing cover to cover multiple times. What do you need to know?”“I need to know about a guy named Abel and if he is good or bad. I also want to know how vampires order was… did they have like a King and Queen?”“No, they didn’t. They respected whoever was the oldest or had the purest line which happened to be Leviticus and his parents. And Abel
LuxGenevieve looks at all of us and then looks back and forth between Kai and me and then says, “You freaked out, didn’t you?”My lips press together as Silas looks at me and questions, “What is she talking about?”Kai says, “Hey, how about the four of us go to my office. We need to discuss this Marinette thing. And Calvin and David, the two of you should go be with your families. We have an early training tomorrow.”Both of the guy’s grumble as they leave and I can’t help but smirk from their reactions. Silas takes my arm and Kai takes Genevieve’s as we all walk to his office. Genevieve walks straight to Kai’s desk and grabs a phone and makes a quick call and Kai starts to ask, “What are you-”Then she started ordering food and he sits down as he says, “Oh!”Genevieve takes a seat and looks directly at me as she asks, “What’s wrong with Kai’s idea?”Silas looks over at me and asks, “What is she talking about, Lux?”I groan and say, “Kai thinks that I should also take the throne… and
LuxI shifted into Kodi and urged her to run as fast as she could. Her paws pounded against the ground and I loved the confidence exuding from her now that she can see where she’s going. She is a little cocky though, she’s pretty confident in her ability to outrun Loki.I can’t believe Kai would even suggest us being co-rulers! I can’t be Luna Queen… it’s not my place. It’s a good thing I was blind because I don’t think I could handle all of the pressure and responsibilities that are tied in with being a Queen!On top of it, look at Kai and Genevieve. They make the whole thing look so effortless. If Silas and I came into the mix I’m sure I’d just mess it up.My sadness seems to fuel Kodi as she runs further away from the waterfall and away from the pack house too. She knew I wanted to be alone and was trying her best not to go somewhere that Loki or Kai would instantly think of.A small part of me wants to talk to Silas, but another part of me doesn’t want to. He’ll just talk about ho
LuxSilas wasn’t surprised by mine and my dad’s conversation and we both agreed that it would be best for us to go home tomorrow and to make this just a single day trip. We needed my dad to see that we’re serious about this. He could have a relationship with me and Kai or he could have a life without us. He doesn’t get to pick and choose.We promised Christopher and Nadia that we would come to visit again after our babies were born and we thanked them for their hospitality before we made our trip home. We were eager to get home. We’ll be having another ultrasound soon and this time we should be able to figure out the gender of the babies.I felt relieved as we drove onto the pack grounds and I looked forward to getting to sleep in our own bed. But as we pulled up to the pack house, I was surprised to see Kai sitting on the front steps by the front door. I braced myself expecting that he is going to be angry with us for going around
KaiI can’t believe that Lux and Silas went around me to Genevieve.I would’ve given them permission. It would’ve been hard to see them go… I keep having a bad feeling in the pit of my stomach that they’re going to leave and not return and… I can’t afford that. I need them here, but Silas keeps avoiding me when I try to bring up the topic of him becoming a Royal Beta again.I don’t understand why. He was raised knowing that he and David would both take the position and he had always seemed excited over it. And now it’s like he doesn’t care about it anymore.Hopefully Lux is able to get our dad to come back so we can resolve things and maybe I could get some answers.Genevieve comes into our room and sighs as she looks at me. She says, “It’s going to be okay.”I nod, I know she’s right. She always is.She says, “Maybe this will help with your dad.
SilasChristopher and Nadia truly were supposed to be the Alpha and Luna of this pack. They handle every matter with such ease and the people LOVE Nadia. It’s not surprising, she’s always been wonderful and due to her omega background, she is more sensitive to the lower ranked members.Christopher is in awe of her and his eyes are always on her if she’s nearby. I notice that Damon has the same look when it comes to Amber, though. But… she seems oblivious to it.I ask, “Hey D, what’s going on with you and Amber?”He seems taken aback by my question and it causes Christopher to laugh as he says, “I told you it was obvious.”Damon looks around the room making sure Amber isn’t near and says, “Man, who told you?”This made both me and Christopher laugh and Damon rolls his eyes and says, “Yeah, yeah, laugh it up you jerks.”Christopher says, “Sorry Damon, you
LuxEvery time I go to a place that I’ve been to before, but it’s the first time for me to actually see it, it feels weird. Like I know the place, but not really.As we pull up to it though, I understand why Silas was drawn to this place. It’s beautiful and quiet and smaller than the Royal Pack and just has a comforting aura.Silas holds my hand and I know he’s trying to silently reassure me. I’m nervous about seeing my dad. I am angry at him for leaving Kai the way that he did, but I’m also excited to see him. It’s the first time I’ll really be able to see him and I can’t help but look forward to that.As we pull up to the pack house, I notice it’s much smaller than the castle that the Royal Pack has, but it’s still a decent size.There are 7 people waiting at the front of the pack house and Silas parks and looks at me and asks, “Are you ready, Lux?”I can’t t
GenevieveThe next month goes by quickly and there’s no hiding anything now. Everyone knows I’m pregnant.All of us girls are thrilled. Between all of our families we are going to have five kids all within 1 year of each other. Kai is going crazy right now. He’s been trying to find a witch or someone that could tell the future that he would trust so that way he can know whether or not me and our child are in any kind of danger.I’ve been confiding in Lux because I’m worried about how stressed-out Kai is. Their dad still hasn’t come back and I know it’s weighing heavily on Kai. There’s a knock on my door and I call out, “Come in!”Lux walks into the room and smiles over at me. I can’t help but smile back at her, she has such a confidence since she got her sight and it’s incredible to see her like this. She says, “I need your opinion slash your permission for something.”
