Frankie POV

I needed to talk to Nikki but I didn’t want it to be somewhere she would be put on display. I decided to mind link Cookie and ask her to put together a very light lunch in a picnic basket, I knew exactly where I wanted to take her. We were on the couch in the living room, her head resting on my lap while I played with her hair.

‘Would you like to go for a walk?’ I linked Nikki and she sat up looking mildly confused before returning her head to my lap. I looked down into her eyes trying to contain a grin and linked again. ‘We could go for a walk this afternoon. It is still plenty early, I promise to have you back in time to get ready for dinner.’ She sat up quickly knocking her head into my nose and said, “You mind linked me didn’t you? Sorry, I didn’t mean to hit you in the nose.” I laughed rubbing my nose as if it actually hurt and said, “Always my Little Bee, going straight for the sting. Yes, I mind-linked you.”

She blushed slightly while biting her lip, “How do I d

So they are gonna choose each other no matter what! I love how blown away Frankie is by Nikki's leadership skills.

  • The Blood Moon Luna   Nikki's Birthday

    Nikki POV After lunch and our talk by the river we walked back to the Alpha Mansion. My mind is still reeling from the craziness of it all. I won’t lie, for a moment there I thought I had not only lost Frankie but the foothold I had over everything I had worked so hard to overcome. When he clarified that it wasn’t his parents' future home that was being built, but his and his future Luna’s home, I wanted to shrivel up and die. Not because a man defines me, because he doesn’t. I felt like everything I worked for had gone up in flames. Then he so fervently poured out his heart and soul to me, and I could have melted on the spot. If I wasn’t already completely gone over on this man, that would have pushed me over the edge. We aren’t telling anyone before the ball. Alpha Kieran and Luna Fran already know but that’s as far as it goes. I did ask Frankie if we could come up with a legitimate reason for Jonas and the twins to be at the ball and he suggested that we ask Luna Fran to have them

    Frankie POV Driving home I am lost in my own thoughts while Nikki, Gideon, and Maisey carry on a conversation. Dinner was fantastic aside from the interruption from Lady Keegan. When she approached our table I subconsciously grabbed Nikki’s thigh. Nikki grounds me, reminds me of what I am fighting for and why. I am so pissed that I hurt her during the whole miserable fucking ordeal. I need to sit down with my dad and figure out how and when we are going to eliminate this problem. And when I say eliminate, it is going to be both Alpha Hollis and his daughter Lady Keegan. Both are worthless pieces of flesh and fur. After the bonfire tonight I will beg Nikki’s forgiveness for hurting her. I never ever want to harm her in any way, to harm her would be harming myself. Nikki has become the air I breathe and my purpose in life beyond my pack. I can see the gates to the territory up ahead and I mind-linked the guards that I knew were on duty to open the gates for my car and the one behind me

  • The Blood Moon Luna   The Hospital

    Frankie POV I have been sitting here for 10 minutes with my head in my hands. It feels like an eternity; my anger and fear are both palpable. Nikki hasn’t had her wolf for 24 hours yet and Wyntre is going to be working overtime to help her heal. This is all my fault, I should have never agreed to that damn alliance, it hasn’t done a damn bit of good anyway. I should have told her we could stay home tonight when she propositioned me before dinner. I should have let her stay in Nevada, anything other than being here and fighting for her life. I heard a set of doors swing open and I looked up to see my parents heading my way. Dad is pissed, with that look on his face, Eurynomus himself would be trembling in fear. Mom on the other hand is Eleos in the flesh, compassion written all over her face. That was all it took, one look at my mom and the tears began to flow. I am not ashamed to cry, my girl’s life is on the line and I am so angry and scared right now. Mom’s arms wrapped around me a

  • The Blood Moon Luna   Coma Reunion

    Nikki POV I have been waiting in this room forever. I don’t know why I am here or what exactly it is I am waiting for. I am alone and there is no sound other than the music you hear in any other waiting room. There isn’t even so much as a 6 month old magazine to occupy my time. Just me, a dozen chairs and a door, no one comes in or goes out of the door. It’s enough to drive a person mad. I would rather be home with Frankie or at K&T Coffeehouse watching Ms.Kayla and Mr.Tristan serve the customers while the friend group and I sit chatting happily about whatever. I would even rather be back in Nevada with Gideon and Maisey training or having a movie marathon, because this place sucks. That’s it! I don’t know why I am here in the first place, but I am leaving. I opened the door to pure darkness, I couldn't see anything. But I would rather take my chances in the dark than sit in that room any longer. As I wandered through the darkness, I couldn't make out any shapes of anything, it is li

  • The Blood Moon Luna   Waking up

    Frankie POV We waited in the waiting room of the hospital for 10 hours while Nikki was in surgery. Mom and dad left just a little while ago to take care of pack business. Gideon left just before dawn and Maisey and the twins came just after breakfast this morning. Jonas has popped in and out, I think he’s been camping out in the doctor’s lounge. Marcus and Tatum have been here in the waiting room since they came in from tracking that bitch. I am not upset they didn’t catch her but I have thought of many ways to make her suffer before she dies. Make no mistake this will end in the death of Lady Keegan, she can burn in hell with her father. Sitting here holding her hand, waiting for her to wake up, I am trying to remember life before Nikki. The funny thing is I can’t. Don’t get me wrong I had a life before her, but it pales in comparison to life with her. I never want to know what life would be like without her and last night that could have happened. Dr. Lynn said I should talk to Ni

  • The Blood Moon Luna   The Hospital 2

    Nikki POV I woke early the next morning and turned my head to watch Frankie sleep. I didn’t want to move because I knew it would wake him. He had looked so worn down last night. His beautiful blue eyes were so red it broke my heart. If I just stay still a little longer, he can rest. “I can feel you staring, Little Bee,” Frankie murmured, as his eyes opened. “Sorry, I was trying to be quiet so you could rest,” I giggled. “I’m not the one who needs rest. Why are you awake? Is everything okay?” he asked, sitting up to look me over before visibly relaxing. Oh I can’t resist the opportunity to tease him a little. “Actually, I am in a little pain,” I said while giving him puppy eyes. He jumped straight out of the chair and started looking me over, “Where does it hurt baby? Do you need me to call the nurse?” he asked and the panic was rising in his voice. Oh this was gold, I bit my cheek to keep from smiling. “Frankie, it hurts right here” I said pointing to my lips. His look of panic evap

    Nikki POV When I think about my life over the past 6 months, it has definitely been a wild ride to put it mildly. If you had told me then, that I would be sitting in the Alpha Mansion with Frankie falling all over himself to take care of me, I would have said you were crazy. As it is, I am pretty sure I am the one who may go crazy if he doesn’t back off. I get it that I just got out of the hospital and I could have lost my life in the car accident, but the fact remains I am alive and well. “Where are you going?” Frankie asked, as I moved from my place on the couch. “Pee Frankie and no you can’t help me. I am capable all by myself,” I said as I continued to walk to the downstairs bathroom. I know that seems a little crass, but I swear he would wipe my ass if I would let him. I wish Maisey or Charity had the pack mind link, I could use a little mischief in my life right now. I have been home for six hours and if I lift a finger Frankie gets all hovery and does whatever I set out to do,

  • The Blood Moon Luna   Two Wrongs 2

    Frankie POV I’m mad and I have a right to be. I feel like Nikki isn’t taking her safety seriously. She doesn’t get that it will kill me if something happens to her. She has apologized three times now, but I can’t find the words to tell her how I feel without losing my shit, so I remain silent. When she came into my gym room and knelt on the floor, I nearly lost my cool. I don’t want my girl to grovel at my feet. I want my Luna to stand beside me and lead our people. As I sit here in my dad’s office, I have read the same shipping report three times and I just can’t focus on the task at hand. Damn that Little Bee for buzzing around in my brain. Why can’t she just understand that I want her safe? Once I have finished going over these reports, I will go talk to her and find a way to make her understand how I feel. An hour later I finished reading all of the reports and logging them into the computer. I have calmed enough to where I think I can speak rationally. I opened the office door

    Mia POV I am not one hundred percent sure what Kendall means by public awaits, but I know I wouldn’t be dressed like this for any small event. So I eagerly placed my hand in his and followed Kendall to the back of the packhouse. When we stepped out of the back door we weren’t outside though. There was a dome that had been erected and decorated like a grand ballroom. The linens were deep burgundy and the table decor was greenery heavily trimmed in gold. The scene was absolutely breathtaking and my heart was so full, my chest could have burst right open. This had been done for me? But why? When a familiar voice came over the P.A. system, my head whipped in the direction of a small stage. “So, when I used to tease my sister about sending her far away to some evil Alpha, I never really thought about the fact that she might actually end up on the other side of the country mated to an Alpha that absolutely adores her. Phoenix Storm, may I present to you the guest of honor Luna Mia Rose De

  • The Blood Moon Luna   Restricted

    Mia POV As Gabby drove me home I thought about Nikki and Frankie’s romantic evening ahead. I won’t lie, I am just a little jealous. Frankie is still attentive to Nikki, and I wish I could say the same was true for Kendall and I. Maybe I should try getting all dressed up and taunt Kendall with naughty suggestions. But sex doesn’t really seem to be our problem though, he’s been a little cold and closed off, he even has the mind-link blocked most of the time. Maybe I should go home for a visit. It has been a few weeks since I have seen mommy and daddy and I really haven’t gotten to know Eli’s mate Cadence. They say distance makes the heart grow fonder, so maybe if we spent a little time apart things will get better. There has to be something wrong with our bond, every couple I know can barely stand to be apart from one another. I was so deep into my own thoughts that I hadn't realized the Hummer had stopped. I was going to ask why we had stopped outside of the gates when I noticed a ba

  • The Blood Moon Luna   For My Treasure

    Kendall POV Do you have any idea how hard it has been keeping a secret from Mia? It means I have had to keep my block up on the mate bond and keep mind-links to a minimum so that she doesn’t find out what I have been planning. The whole no Luna ceremony thing has really bothered me and I asked her again to consider it after I picked up the ring that I commissioned Simone to make. No go, she doesn’t need a celebration to know that the pack loves and accepts her. The thing is that pack members have asked when we will be celebrating their luna. They are so excited to finally have one and they want to shower her with affection. So while it is really a little late to have a luna ceremony because she is really their luna in every way possible, it’s never too late to just celebrate her. So the pack has been secretly planning a celebration for her. When she comes back from Cold Moon this afternoon she will hopefully be surprised. Once she cleared the gates this morning we started putting

  • The Blood Moon Luna   Heartache

    Mia POV Everyone around here has been acting a little weird lately. No one seems to have time to talk and they are always in a hurry. Even Kendall seems distracted at times, I know we have a lot going on, but he has been so attentive from day one that it has me worried. Could our bond be broken or maybe just not as strong as everyone else’s seems to be? I really just don’t understand. I have decided that I am going to meet with Nikki and the rest of the girls at K&T this morning. I am in serious need of some girl time and a decent macchiato. I went to knock on Kendall’s office door and let him know I will be leaving for the day. “Come in,” he called out when I knocked. Gordon and Bertie were in the office with Kendall and it looks as though they are going over some sort of paperwork. I walked over and gave Kendall a kiss and said, “I am heading over to Cold Moon to have macchiatos with the girls, I will be back this afternoon. Kendall reached into his pocket and pulled out his keys

  • The Blood Moon Luna   Joining Forces

    Kendall POV Things went so well meeting with the elders today and I couldn’t be happier. I realize that a name change isn’t much in reality, but I feel like it is one more step away from my father and all of his misdeeds and something that will have a positive effect on pack morale. I am curious as to what Frankie wants to speak with me about, perhaps it is just the formality of signing the alliance that we verbally agreed to back in Atlantic City. Now that we have decided on the name change, we can move forward with the fealty ceremony and that should be another step in the right direction in the healing process of the pack. If it were a financially viable option, I would have this pack house demolished and build a new one to destroy more of the bad memories. I have a little more than two hours before Frankie should arrive and I asked Anita and Letty to keep Mia distracted while I pay Simone a visit. Hopefully they have interpreted what I had in my head into another of their stun

  • The Blood Moon Luna   Phoenix Storm

    Mia POV I am so proud of the progress that Kendall has made at sifting through the mess left behind by Hollis and the rogues. I can’t even call that vile man Kendall’s father and would never call him an Alpha. He was a disgrace to that title and his picture is next to the definition of evil in the dictionary. I don’t understand how any person can do half of the things he has done and still sleep at night. We discovered that Hollis had a lab set up in one of the warehouses, where he was testing the effects of some of the weapons he had been trafficking on different pack members who had angered him. Dr.Lynn from Cold Moon Pack came with an experimental cure that actually worked wonders in helping those who had been experimented on. She tried to explain that she used vampire blood to make some sort of protein fusion with the endoplasmic reticulum… I am definitely not science minded and it was all gibberish to me. It worked and that’s all that really matters, right? Apparently Holli

  • The Blood Moon Luna   Beta/Gamma

    Kendall POV I honestly didn’t know what I expected to find sifting through the mess left behind by the rogues and my father’s Beta and Gamma. But the level of depravity was astounding. They took everything they could from my people and when I say everything, I do mean everything. They collected what they called ‘taxes’ but in all reality was just their greed. The more a pack member had the more they took and worse was the treatment of unmated females no matter their status. They had the packhouse running as a brothel and if a female wouldn’t submit to their whims… I just can’t even talk about it. Poor Cookie won’t tell me what she has been through and I won’t force it, but I know it had to have been bad. I accidentally knocked the broom onto the floor when I entered the kitchen and she went into complete hysterics. I had to call Dr. Lynn who came from the Cold Moon Pack hospital to sedate her. I spoke to the human authorities this morning and found that they would not allow me to

  • The Blood Moon Luna   The Packhouse

    Mia POV After the battle was over, our injured and dead were transported off of the field. Kendall, my dad and I made our way to the Rip Claw packhouse. Kendall asked one of the omegas to get some fresh clothing and show my dad to the guest suite so he can shower and change. We stopped by Keegan’s room to find something for me to change into, then we made our way to Kendall’s room to shower and change. I wasn’t completely thrilled with wearing his psycho, dead sister’s clothes, but now is not the time to be picky. “How do you feel, Alpha?” I asked as we undressed quickly to get into the shower. “Relieved it’s over, if I am totally honest,” he sighed. “We freed our people and that is the important part,” I replied. “You said our people,” Kendall grinned. I looked down not knowing if I had misspoken and said, “Well, I hope they are our people anyway. You haven’t changed your mind have you?” He used a finger to lift my chin and his eyes sparkled with excitement. “Yes Luna, they are our

  • The Blood Moon Luna   Freeing My People

    Kendall POV We spent the day in training yesterday and I have to say watching Mia was truly fascinating. She is remarkable both in hand to hand and in wolf form. Her movements were fierce yet graceful; she was no delicate little flower. I have said it before and I will likely say it many times more; She is my treasure, my perfect blessing from Selene. Today is the day and I wish I could say that I am ready for it but the truth is I have slept for crap these last two nights. Don’t get me wrong there is no love lost over killing my father. Quite the opposite actually. It has been two nights of the same thing on loop in my dreams, my father telling me I am worthless, I can’t do this, and he will always win. Today is the day I prove him wrong though once and for all. He may be dead, but he is still in my head and the sooner we free Rip Claw from the rogues and begin rebuilding, the better. There is so much riding on this that if I let my father’s words sway me, I would fail. Failure is
