I hope you enjoyed this extra long chapter. What do you think of Artemis accepting Rik's offering?
The next morning I’m up early again. I’m not ready to join in the morning training sessions just yet, but I still want to take whatever opportunity I can to watch my girl. I sneak back into the guest room and open the window just as I see her wolf running along the tree line. I watch as she goes b
“High five Alpha! You’re golden!” Chase mind links me so as not to give it away that the gift is from me. I can’t help the smile that spreads across my face. I feel high, exuberant, on top of the world. Nothing in my life has ever felt so momentous as this moment. I watch as she takes the first bi
After school, I drop Jason off and head home. When I walk in, Dad looks at me and gives me a side smile, “What? No flowers?” The look on my face must have been more serious than I anticipated because his smile drops. “Honey?” I walk over to the living room and sit on the couch. I take a deep breat
The next day, I pick up Jason and head to school. “So, what do you think today’s surprise will be?” He asks as soon as he gets in the car. I look over at him, “What makes you think there will be another gift today?” “Come on Car. The man basically staked a claim yesterday. You think he isn’t goin
The next day, I’m feeling a bit more confident. My morning is the same, watching Cara take out my warriors. Trevor continues to be her biggest competitor, but even he is unable to take her down. Then I meet up with Chase, who has my breakfast to go, and we head to school. Everyone is talking about
After dinner with the pack, I go to my dad’s office. The door is slightly ajar and I knock before pushing it open to walk in. I stop when I see my mom sitting in dad’s lap, and he’s practically checking her tonsils with his tongue. “Seriously, can you not wait until you're in the privacy of your ow
My dream has me on edge most of the morning. That or maybe it’s the constant whispers and not so subtle comments about who my mystery man might be. By lunch time, I feel like a nervous wreck. But, I’m also excited. I have to admit, I’m enjoying the attention. Artemis is over the moon with the atten
She places her hand on his chest. “Yes, Cyran, I accept your offering.” A cheer from Liam’s pack erupts throughout the room, proud that their Alpha’s offering was accepted by a Guardian. A furious snarl comes from behind me, silencing the cheers. Artemis turns to see Kai fighting to come forward.
Hello everyone, Thank you for taking this journey with me. As many of you may have read, Lily was adamant that I tell her story. And while it took longer in the beginning than I expected, I hope you got to see what a great person she is. Many of you have asked for a continuation of the series and
We watch as Angel and Cara explain the best that they can what Grace did to save the packs. She probably could have done it on her own, but I was concerned for her child. Having whatever strength she pulled from everyone was great, but she wasn’t reserving any for herself. She would have given every
I find Angel and I know that Selene was correct. She has no problem following me and I help her find her way back to Liam. Watching him on the hospital bed, begging for her to return to him, I’m thankful that I could help him and Angel reunite. I know the pain of losing my mate, and I would never wi
At first, when the vampire sank his teeth into my neck, I fought. I probably could have defeated him, even in my disadvantaged state. But then, I realized if I died, I’d be with my Lily bud. I feel my tether to everyone in my life break and I tell Lily I’m coming as everything goes dark. When I ope
“That was a really good idea, Lily bud. I’ve thought of that last night away so many times over the years. I should have known. It wasn’t like you to suddenly be so stressed out. But hindsight is always 20/20, isn’t it?” Clint begins training Angel and Alessia and it’s like he has a renewed purpose
I’ve continued to watch the life of my family. I’ve watched my daughter grow into a beautiful woman. She is not only beautiful on the outside, but she’s also beautiful on the inside. Clint has done such a great job raising her, as I knew he would. And I love that he still talks to me at night, as if
For the next few years, I get into a pattern of training Cara. We train early in the morning, then while she is at school, I work on my upper body strength by building and testing the training facilities I’m building for her. It’s a work in progress, but I feel closer to Lily while I build this for
My Lily bud is always here, watching over me and Cara. It changes things for me. It makes the days easier. I have no intention of letting my mate down, so I begin to plan what needs to happen to train my daughter and make her the strongest Guardian alive. That does give me a moment of pause. Guardi
Cyran runs with Artemis for hours. Andra had gone to follow and watch over them and I joined her, watching as Cyran nipped at Artemis’s heels and played with her. He’s really good with her. When they finally returned, Clint and Liam helped her shift back before Liam headed home. She was so excited
