The next few days pass by fairly smoothly. Killian listens to what I have to say, he doesn’t argue with me or say anything mean. He asks me thoughtful questions about how to better run his pack, and seems to cling onto every word that comes from me.

On the fourth day, we’re sitting in the classroom like always, when Sebastain suddenly comes barging in.

“How are things going in here?” He asks, walking behind me and touching a strand of my hair possibly as he does. I narrow my eyes at him over my shoulder a little, but don’t say anything about his action.

“I think Killian has learned a lot.” I settled on. Killian’s eyes are watching Sebastain’s movements behind me, and it gets harder and harder to ignore the growing tension in the room. “Uhm… we were just discussing the best pay to teach young wolves…” I mutter, trying to break the silence a little. “Do you have any suggestions?” I ask Sebastain.

He hums, and rubs his chin a little. “It’s important for young wolves to have good

    These past few days I’ve spent with Everly have reminded me of something, something I thought I had completely buried. I was in love with her. Learning that the twins were in fact mine, and that she hadn’t gotten knocked up by another Alpha, made my bitterness fade away. I was still the only one to blame for our divorce, I know that now. But just sitting with her, listening to her talk about a pack she no longer had ties to, made me miss having her around. It made me miss how smart and creative she was. She could always figure out a way to get something done, no matter what she had to do. I had to help May with the most basic of tasks, like how to write a check. The Luna of the pack almost always handles the majority of the pack's money, so the fact that she didn’t even know how to write a check was a very telling sign of her leadership style. Which evidently was to delegate, delegate, delegate. Everly always liked to get her hands dirty, get things done. She liked doing gr

    “Thank you for your help today.” I thank the doctor who had been helping me the last few hours as I prepare to leave. He nods and smiles a little at me. “Of course Luna…” I tilt my head at the hesitation in his body language. “It seems like you want to say something.” He looked around nervously, like someone was listening from the corner. I had just been taking a shot in the dark with my statement, but his reaction confirmed what I had said that much more.“No... not really. Just… be careful. What you eat. It’s what made you sick.” He stares into my eyes like he was trying to communicate something with me, and I turn around a little. “Okay.. thanks again.” I say hesitantly. I want to poke around more, but he turns around in his spinny chair to click around his computer. That was weird to say the least. I’m still thinking of how strange it was as I left, heading towards home. Something I ate made me sick? I try and think back to what the hell I could’ve eaten that would make me t

    The next morning I wake up to the sound of clinking in the kitchen. I sit up in bed, my nerves tingling, my ears prickling. I glance over to where I had dragged the twins bed’s in to sleep beside mine, and let out a sigh of relief when I see they’re still safely sleeping. I slowly crawl out of bed, creeping to the kitchen. I set each step down slowly and carefully, so they can't hear me coming. I hear low voices talking, but I can’t pick up anything specific they're saying. When I round the corner, they stop, and I’m surprised to find both Sebastain and Alice in my kitchen, seemingly cooking food. “Hello.” I say cautiously to the pair. “What’s going on here?” Maybe I was just damaged from Killian's whole affair partner thing, but I found myself feeling a lot more suspcious about intersex-relations that ended up being perfectly innocent. “Good morning, Luna.” Alice says sweetly to me. “You’re looking much better today.” I smile hesitantly, watching her set a plate of pancakes

    Over the next couple of days a very chilling realization hit me: I was a prisoner in my own home. I woke up the day after almost fainting in the kitchen, and my bedroom door was locked. I banged on it a few times and Sebstain unlocked it, looking down at me with worry. “Are you okay?” he had asked, his eyes scanning me as if looking for wounds. “Why is the door locked? Where are the twins?” “Oh, they’re eating breakfast. Come on, let's go see them.” He turned to leave, very pointedly ignoring my question about why my door was locked. “Hey babies.” I coo when I walk into the kitchen and see my children sitting in their highchairs eating bowls of soft cereal. I pick Ella out of her seat as she stretches her tiny arms up to me. I bring her close to my face, kissing her warm cheeks a little.“Are you feeling better today?” I turn to look at Sebastian as he leans against the frame of the kitchen entryway.“Yeah, but I felt fine yesterday… until I didn’t.” I set Ella back in her chair,

    “I’ll be back later tonight, Alice will take good care of you.” I smile weakly at Sebastian as he kisses my forehead before leaving my bedroom, closing the door behind him and locking it. He told me earlier he had some kind of committee meeting he had to be a part of, so he would be bringing Alice over to take care of me. I used to feel kind of excited when she came over, but now I just felt uneasy about her being in my house and taking care of my kids. I felt uncomfortable every time she picked one of the twins up, and wanted to rip my child out of her arms. I throw the blanket off me quickly, sliding to sit on the edge of the bed with an annoyed huff. I reached under my tongue and pulled the two pill capsules Sebastain had given me before leaving for my “pain” and tucked them under my mattress. They were a bit soft from sitting in my mouth for too long, but Sebastain seemed hesitant to leave me these days and he lingered for a while after giving me my pills. I have not eaten for

    I know I need to get back to my pack, but I can’t help but worry about Everly. I got a very strange phone call from her last night when the power went out. It was brief, but the first time I had heard from her in a few days. She had stopped showing up for our lessons all together, and even though they said I would be given another chance after receiving instruction from a different instructor, I couldn’t bring myself to leave yet. Everyone in this pack was gossiping about how she was sick and not leaving her house, and how the Alpha had even moved in to keep an eye on her. They seemed a little excited about it, to be honest. But that gossip combined with her weird phone call, made me think there was one person in this equation who wasn’t exactly willing. And even if Everly was willing, and I was just making a huge awkward mistake, I needed to know she was okay before I left, because there was one similar theme to all the rumors: the Luna of this pack was seriously ill. So I contact

    That bastard Sebastain had me locked in his little holding cell for two days before he finally showed up to talk to me. I had no idea what was happening during that time. I had told Everly I would save her, and had even given her a phone with the promise of contacting her. And now I was just as locked up as she was, if not more so.I was hoping Lucas had done something to help her, but I couldn’t blame him if he didn’t. I hadn't even figured out a way to get her out quite yet, so I would understand if he was stuck as to what to do, especially now that I’d been taken into custody. Shit, they might have dragged him in too, or filled his head with a bunch of lies about me. For all I know, he’s switched sides already. I look up from my bench where I’m sitting, my eyes landing on Sebastian as he finally wanders in, looking nonchalant as hell, like he hadn’t been keeping me prisoner in here for days already. He was toying with me just because he could, and we both knew it. “You going to t

    An entire day after Lucas had snuck the phone to me, and I still hadn’t gotten word from anyone. No text or call from Killian, nothing. I had already drained a fourth of the phone’s limited battery by checking it as often as I could. I was a little worried about him, to be honest, but decided I could no longer sit and wait around to be saved. If he was in fact in Sebastain’s clutches like I suspected him to be, I might have to be the one who does the recusing.First, I text one of two numbers preprogrammed into the phone, Lucas. I asked him what was going on, and if Killian was okay. Almost immediately, he texts back, telling me he thinks he’s been taken. He said they were supposed to meet after he got me the phone, but he never showed up so he moved to their emergency meeting spot, a hotel room about ten miles away from here. He said he’d been waiting there ever since, but hadn’t heard anything. I had to cut the conversation short then, and shove the phone back under the bag in th

    Failure. You lost. Pathetic. You don’t deserve to be Alpha. These words are the only ones that fill my head as someone carried my unconscious body like a sack of potatoes. I didn’t know who it was, if they were taking me to finish me off or help me, but I didn’t care. I can’t believe I lost. My mind can’t quite put everything that happened in order, not yet at least. I remember the beginning of the fight, flashes of Everly’s anxious face watching me get my ass kicked. I remember… getting knocked down. Lots of yelling. But I’m not sure why… I couldn’t pick out what they had been saying. Sounded like a woman, calling someone a monster. But who would be yelling that, and why? And I remember opening my eyes for a moment, and seeing Everly kneeling above me, blood on her chin, and her eyes so, so worried for me. Why was there blood on her chin? “...you gotta open your eyes buddy.” Whoever that is sounds familiar. Lucas? He was the only one who would call me something like “buddy.”

  • The Chosen Luna's True Mate   Chapter Eighty-Nine

    I hadn’t utilized my wolf much since she’d come back to me, a few small conversations here and there, but she didn’t seem all that chatty, to be honest. Though it wasn’t like she was before, either. I had even asked her once if she wanted to be let out so she could go for a run, but she said no, she was fine watching. Which I thought was a little weird, just because of what I’d heard about your wolf’s nature inside when I was a kid, was that it could always be begging to be let out. Wolves loved to run and play, hunt and kill. But my wolf always seemed like she preferred to remain inside, silently watching my life play out. It was a little odd, to be honest. I guess one might assume she’d be weak, from all that time spent locked up. But she wasn’t. She ripped through my skin, making Felix laugh like an evil maniac, and grin with excitement. He tears off his own shirt, and begins turning into his wolf. I hope my wolf knew what she was doing. I hope we dont both die today. I want

    There were more than a few problems that quickly became evident to me from the second Adam told us to begin. First of all, I don’t know Felix, like at all. I’d never met him before all this, so I certainly didn’t know anything about his fighting style. I guess I had assumed based on his personality, he would dance around me for a while, taunting me and maybe revealing some evil plan he’d been cooking up. Starting out easy and building up to more serious attacks. I was dead wrong, because the first thing he did was charge me at a lightning fast speed, barely giving me time to put my arms up and try to block my face from the barrage of punches he was throwing at me. His fists pounded into my arms, and I could already imagine the dark bruises I would be covered in if I survived long enough to see tomorrow. I could hear the packs booing him, except for his of course, and throwing suggestions at me. Even they could tell I was in over my head here. I wanted to take their advice, but a l

    After a while, Adam and an older woman come back over to me, both with those same, almost mourning expressions on their faces. They were looking at me like they were about to tell me I had cancer or something.“Everly… I don’t know how to say this..” Adam begins, but is cut off by the over eager Felix, who throws his arm over my shoulder and hangs off me like a rag doll. “Oh, do tell us Adam. Tell us how she’s going to have to fight me now, because of your tragic pack rules.” He taunts, an impish grin plastered on his face. I narrow my eyes at him, but when I look back at Adam, I can tell that’s exactly what I’m going to have to do. I’d already had an inkling, but I guess there was still some small part of me that hoped the fates might have mercy on me for once. I mean, it makes sense. Sebastian fights Killian, whoever wins that fight, fights Felix. Except, I just had to butt my big head in, and now I was the one who had won that match, so according to the rules, I was up next again

    “Killian?! Wake up!” I’m hovering over Killian now, gently holding either side of his face. There’s blood all over, his nose is definitely broken, and his eyes are swollen shut. Serena still hasn’t shut up about what a monster I am in the background, even though Sebastain had already been dragged off by a couple of his pack members. I wish she would’ve gone with him, because she was only adding to the chaos. A couple committee members were holding her back by the arms as she yelled at me what a manipulative piece of shit I was, and that if her son died, I was the reason. Adam was one of the guys holding her, and I could tell by the look on his face, he had no idea what to do right now.“Please.” I lean down to Killian’s ear, kissing it softly. My heart races in my chest when I hear him groan, and his head rolls to the side a little. That was proof, he was alive, and that’s all I needed right now.“Luna, we must help him.” I look up to the voice talking to me, my eyes wide and franti

  • The Chosen Luna's True Mate   Chapter Eighty-Five

    “Ladies and Gentlemen!” I blink a little, trying to pull myself out of the whirlwind of thoughts going on inside my mind right now as Serena starts speaking to the gathered packs. “Today, we are witnessing the challenge of two Alphas-”I hear a voice clearing, and look up to Felix, who is standing in between Killian and Sebastain. Serena sighs, and rolls her eyes. “Two Alphas and a… him.” She waves her hand dismissively at Felix, but he just grins that evil smile of his and waves at the crowd. “For the right to rule over all attending packs.” I notice she left out the real reason this challenge was even happening, to see who would have me as their Luna. She was one of the ones I’d heard him talking shit about me to, so I don’t know why she even cared. She already knew how he really felt, right? I look up then at Sebastian, who is already looking at me. His dark gaze stares into mine, and I swallow thickly. He’s mouthing something at me, something I can’t quite make out. I tilt my h

    “You’ll be over here, so you can see.” I nod at the pack member who led me through the crowd of buzzing people, all gathered to watch the challenge ceremony that was set to start in thirty minutes. All the normal pack members were standing in a loose circle in the middle of Sebastain’s pack lands, while myself, Camilla, and the committee members sat at the front in chairs they’d placed for us. Camilla and I were the only ones actually sitting, side by side now. The rest of the committee members were standing off to the side a little, talking amongst themselves.“How was your night?” I ask her as we both watch the pack members interacting, all of them excited for the fast approaching fight. I could practically feel the energy buzzing in the air. I glance at her, and notice her chewing on her lip a little, instead of grinning ear to ear like I thought she would be.“What’s wrong? What happened?” I ask. I had been expecting her to immediately start gushing about hooking up with Lucas,

    I walk back to Sebastain’s place, my arms crossed and my mind whirring with thoughts of what I had just done. I definitely should not have just hooked up with Killian. But it’s like I couldn’t help myself. Hearing Sebastain call me simple, laugh at me with his mom and dumb committee members like I was some immature little girl, it just made me so mad. I wanted to get back at him, and even though I didn’t plan on running to him and rubbing it in his face, I still felt a weird sense of satisfaction from what I’d just done. I walk in the front door, heading upstairs to my room, rather than heading back to the party still going on in the backyard. I hadn’t really been in the party mood before, and I definitely wasn't now. I sigh, and walk to my bed, collapsing onto it with a heavy sigh. These past couple days have been draining as hell. My body and my mind are tired of working overtime, and I can feel it really sinking in as I lay there in the quiet dark of my room.I wish everything

    Nothing had ever felt as right as holding Everly in my arms at that moment. Feeling her hot breath on my neck as I grinded my length into her, her fingers clutching at my shoulders as she gasped and moaned my name. I hadn’t gotten to be with her like this in way too long, and while it hadn’t been the thing I missed the most about her, I can't lie and say I didn’t crave this a little. “Fuck I missed you.” I groan into her ear as I grab her tightly under the ass, her back hitting the tree I had her pinned against with every thrust inside of her. “You smell so good…” I mutter as I bury my face in her collarbone and kiss her warm, soft skin. My mind was blank, thinking only of how good it felt to be buried inside her again, her wetness leaking out onto me with every motion. I could feel her thighs clenching, the heat of her body radiating off her. Why did I ever give this up? Why did I ever think May was better than her? “Killian… I’m going to…” she gasps, her grip on me tightening eve
