Kendall POV

I thought that I would feel something when I finally faced my father again, what I didn’t expect was for it to be intense hatred. He has never seen me as worthy of his love and praise, well that only came if I did his bidding. His words at the gate fueled a hatred that was already inside of me, “YOU FUCKING TRAITOR! I ALWAYS KNEW YOU WERE WEAK AND WORTHLESS!” He screamed it at me. I am not the traitor, and he is the worthless one. He betrayed my mother, his pack, and pretty much everyone he has ever come in contact with.

He warpered my sister into the psychopath she became and it cost her life in the end. Not that it took much, Keegan was self centered and wanted the finer things in life so he used that to have her do whatever he asked. He wanted her to infiltrate the Cold Moon Pack and she couldn’t do that. I wonder how much longer he would have let her live after her failure. We’ll never know because she was so demented that she got herself killed. She was so bent on b

Wow! Can two men of the same blood be anymore different? Kendall must be like his mother, he is certainly to good to be called Alpha Hollis's son. Please leave a gem or comment. I truly enjoy reading each one and the gems will help me reach the goal I set for myself. As always, thank you for reading. Much Love, A :)

    Eilif POV This has gone way different than I could have ever expected. My mate is soooo handsome, I can’t believe after 80 years that I have a mate. What is truly amazing is his love for the wolves, I can see that they care about him too. Now that they have all gone to bed, I have the entire night to talk with him and get to know more about him. “Let’s go for a walk Eilif,” Gideon says to me and I can see that he is anxious. We go to the back of the house and out that door. “I figure we can walk and talk without disturbing everyone else, if you don’t mind?” he says and heads to the wooded area. “So Gideon, I told you and your friends about my life. Will you share yours with me?” I ask hoping that he is starting to at least like me. “I am 252 and I was 21 when I became a vampire. Though how I became a vampire is different than yourself. I have always known that I was gay, though I was very inexperienced when I died and it was the cause of my death,” he shared with me sounding very s

    Nikki POV At breakfast this morning the table conversation revolved around the council and what will happen to Alpha Hollis and the war against the rogues to help Kendall to take over his pack. There is a lot of planning that has to take place in a short time, because the longer we wait to remove the rogues from Rip Claw the more Kendall’s pack suffers and the greater the possibility that he will lose the loyalty of the pack members. We go back over squad divisions and look at where we might need to make changes to be most effective. We have come to the agreement that we should not have mates or family members on the same squads with the exception that Gideon will be with me. That was a hard line he drew in the sand and no one wanted to argue with him. Plus it put Frankie more at ease to have me ‘more protected’ as he saw it, Someone cleared their throat and then Eilif spoke, “I realize that I am new and we got off on the wrong foot, but I would really like to help in this fight.”

  • The Blood Moon Luna   Up to Speed

    Nikki POV I want to say that I have high hopes for when we visit the council, but I don’t. Part of me still feels like reporting the crime made us the criminals. I don’t care if the Head Counselor apologized for being a dick or not, something just feels off. Even Wyntre gets agitated when we are near him, and that makes me more uneasy. I am glad that Alpha Kieran is the one that will be giving the update today, because he doesn’t seem to be bothered by the Head Counselor. When we arrive at the hospital Dr. Lynn gives us an update and it looks as though three of the four councilmen will be discharged today. She did ask if Gideon would be available at some point during the day to give blood to the fourth councilman as he is healed enough for his life to not be in danger. I told her I would get in touch with Gideon and get back with her. Alpha Kieran asked if she could have a conference room set up so that he may brief the council on everything that has been going on. Frankie and I dec

    Nikki POV When we arrived back at the mansion lunch had been prepared buffet style so that everyone could grab what they wanted. Cookie had prepared several different types of sandwiches and an enormous pot of broccoli cheese and potato soup. I selected a croissant piled with homemade chicken salad and it was delicious with diced celery, onion, almonds and dried cranberries mixed in. Mia had come up with an idea just in case the hunches that Kendall and I had about the Head Counselor were correct. So as soon as I finished eating, I headed in the direction of Gideon’s room. I knocked and didn’t get a reply at first so I knocked a little louder a second time. Eilif answered the door with a bath towel at his waist and a huge grin on his face. “Hi Eilif, I am not interrupting anything am I?” I asked slightly embarrassed at seeing him in nothing but a towel. “No, Gideon and I have just finished showering. He should be dressed and out of the bathroom in a minute. We heard knocking and I

  • The Blood Moon Luna   The Aftermath

    Nikki POV We were in the cell block beneath the training center and I couldn’t believe my ears. Every time Alpha Hollis was questioned he would either completely deny the accusation, deflect the blame on someone else, or lobby accusations of his own. It was appalling to see his lack of conscience or remorse. What was worse was watching the Head Counselor practically lapping up Alpha Hollis’s every word. Like it excited him that Alpha Hollis was a complete liar. I casually noticed that the other two council members were mind-linking back and forth and their faces looked distraught. Hopefully Gideon and Eilif are upstairs watching the video feed because the further this proceeds the more Wyntre is pacing and she has even started growling. Something definitely isn’t right. I continued listening as Alpha Hollis spewed his lies, but what I never expected to hear was, “It seems we have two very different versions of the same story. Until this is sorted out we can’t hold Alpha Hollis in t

  • The Blood Moon Luna   Battle Training

    Nikki POV In our room Frankie wrapped his arms around my waist and asked me if I was feeling okay after everything that has happened. I told him it had been a whirlwind, but other than that I felt fine. I know he worries, but I am a good fighter and I always seem to have someone watching my back. This battle may be grueling and I have prepared myself physically for the challenge. Mentally I don’t know if anyone can be 100% prepared for that, knowing that there is a good chance that everyone who goes into battle may not come back home alive or uninjured. “I love you Little Bee, I just want you to know that,” Frankie said a little out of the blue. I love you too, my Alpha and I know you know that. What’s going on? Is something wrong?” I asked, trying to understand where his thoughts were. “Nothing is going on, I am just worried about not being able to protect you in battle,” he said with a serious look on his face. “Frankie, you know I am good and aside from that Gideon and Maisey ar

  • The Blood Moon Luna   The Battle pt.1

    Kendall POV 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, if he were female I would sing that clever little dity from the children’s movie I saw as a boy. You know the one about the witch being dead? Anyway, 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 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. This is for my pack, for my mate, and for the future generations. I get dressed and head down to meet with the other Alphas, so we can go over the plans one last time. “Good morning Kendall. Are you ready to do

  • The Blood Moon Luna   The Battle pt.2

    Frankie POV All morning I thought of 100 reasons why I didn’t want Nikki to go into battle with us today. The bottom line is that I would never succeed in stopping her. She is beyond remarkable really and no one can stop her. I have to ‘check my masculinity at the door’ and remember who she is beyond being my mate. Once Kendall returned from taking down his pack security, dad gave us a little pep talk. I hope that when I become alpha that I can be at least half as good as he is. When we load the buses I decided to sit with Eilif so we can talk. “Hey Eilif, how are you doing?” I asked as I sat down. “Good. Psyching myself up for battle mentally,” he replied. “So, are you worried about Gideon?” I questioned. “Yes, but I look at it this way; Gideon is 252 years old and though he may not have fought in human wars he has taken a stand against many injustices in his existence. He is strong and capable, so I shouldn’t worry. That doesn’t mean I won’t. What about you, are you worried?” he as

    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

    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.

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.
