"But how?" I questioned, pacing around her room, baffled. It was not possible, but still it existed before me, in the palm of Maria's hand.
"We used to go there about once a month, but since they tightened security in their territory we haven't been able to get close. Richard eventually became impatient and decided to go in by himself." She muttered the last bit sadly, partly angry that her mate had decided to go alone without her knowledge.
"I've heard stories, but I'm not really sure how it's made, the last one was thought to have been used thirty years ago." I stared at the crimson mixture, transfixed by the power a single bottle held.
These mixtures were created in order to kill vampires, working from the inside it seeps through the skull and fries the brain. The last one was thought to have been used to kill the Vampire King's son in 1987, the closest a werewolf has come to regaining dominion since a millennium. Since then no werewolf has been able to co
SeerI looked frantically at the cards before me. I was gifted with the power of sight but I was not always accurate."This is very alarming. She has accepted the role of Luna with such formality and conviction. I have never seen anything like it. How could she possibility separate herself from her emotions like that, not even her wolf is powerful enough to sway her.""She is a wounded and traumatised girl, give her time." The Moon Goddess calmly responded."But her heart is so guarded, so damaged and still she has desires of returning to her old life." My eyes flashed and I took a little stumble rubbing my aching temple as I projected myself into the subconsciousness of Felicity.
Alejandro's POVA gaping hole stared at the faces of my subjects. My canines elongated and I knew my eyes had turned a molten black."How could you? How could you let them get so close?" I erupted, slamming my palms on the table as I stood up."Your majesty, you know how the youngsters are, as soon as they get a grip on their abilities, it's hard to keep track." One of the men spoke, his head bowed low as he spoke.I glared at the man, watching his quivering form while I shook with anger. "Well you see what that has caused, you see the shit we're in now?" I bellowed, uncaring that my voice could be heard by the rest of the castle."But your majesty-" before he could
I opened one throbbing eye to find Derek staring down at me, his hands motioning for me to get up.I shook my head, my chest rising and falling rapidly as I stared up at the ceiling, my back flat on the floor.It had been my second spar with Derek and each result was the same - with me sweating like a pig, sprawled out on the ground."Come on Luna, Alpha Jax said we don't stop until you get it right." I remained still. I never realised how much comfort the cold hard ground could bring me."The longer you take to get up, the longer we spend here." He said nonchalantly, kneeling down and staring at my goofy position. I was both mentally and physically drained.Fisting my hands I placed them on the ground and pushed myself up. "You want a fight tough guy, you've got one." I put two fists in front me and shook a stray lock of hair from my face.Derek smirked, opening his arms wide as a signal for me to come get him. Letting out a war cry, I char
Flashback They locked me the loft, it was only me in the room, a small patch of glass allowed me to see what was going on outside. Everyone was fighting; I couldn't tell who was who since they were all in werewolf form. My wolf side had yet to fully develop, it made me vulnerable as I was unable to fight nor could I communicate with other members of my pack. I couldn't smell much other than the build up of dust that accumulated in the small room causing my nose to wrinkle, I sneezed. I had climbed on to one of the chairs so I could see what was going on. I bit the inside of my cheek as I concentrated on balancing on my tippy toes and peering through the small box window in the corner of the room. I wish I hadn't. Nothing but death stared me in the face, people were gnashing their teeth at one another, clamping their huge jaws into each other's throats. I could hear a mixture of whimpers and growls, it was chaos and I couldn't understand what
"I'm so happy to see you!" I laughed as Michelle jumped onto me, embracing me in a tight hug."Me too I've missed you so much Mich" I smiled at my childhood bestfriend only now realising how much I missed her."Come, sit, tell me everything, how come you're back?" She gestured me towards her bed and we sat down. I proceeded to tell her everything right down to the curse and the Vampire poison.Michelle believed in the legacy, but not so much the curse. She agreed our family legacy was filled with mate tragedies, but viewed it as just that, tragedies."I can't believe the dreams have started again" She rubbed my arm soothingly, probably remembering everytime she had to rock me back to sleep and cool my body with a damp towel when I had
I hadn't heard from Matthew since the other night and frankly it didn't ease my worries.The burden of carrying such a secret still weighed heavily upon me and I was constantly on edge, waiting for the next attack. I had been trying to convince myself that keeping this secret was for our future, giving up Maria's identity would only allow the Vampires to launch a mass attack on our pack in order to destroy the poison.Maria had been MIA since she revealed all she and her husband had done. Not sure if she was doing alright, I decided to pay her a visit, curiosity getting the better of me.Knocking on the door I jumped when someone immediately shouted. "Go away!" I thought about leaving, but I needed to know how she was doing, so I knocked again.

I'm Jaxon, Alpha of the Blue Moon Pack, the strongest and most dominant pack in the world. Yet I can't seem to display such qualities to my own pack. I haven't been focused lately and the steadfast mindset I once had is now wavering. All because of one girl, my mate, Felicity Stone. Since I could remember, my parents have taught me the importance of a mate, the unbreakable bond created between two single souls. I always envisioned the mate bond as the most beautiful and precious thing the moon goddess could give two people and the thought of breaking such a gift was unthinkable. But Felicity's words, they bothered me more than I thought they would, to the point that it even effected my responsibilities as an Alpha. I waited a few days, exercised and worked twice as much, hoping to rid her soft voice from my ear to no avail. Felicity was right, I was with someone before I met her and I mercilessly ended it because I thought that was how it was supposed to be once you've found
Being Luna while the Alpha was away came with so many responsibilities. I had to attend all the meetings concerning the upcoming war with the vampires and trust me, there was a lot.It's been exactly a week since Jax left and he still isn't back. I don't understand how an Alpha can just pack his bags and leave his pack unattended. He knows that the vampires have been targeting us, however he still chooses to leave. Alpha of the year everybody!Training with Derek has intensified, its now been bumped to twice a day for two hours instead of one. Even though Jax isn't here, he still thinks he can send Derek little messages telling me what I can and cannot do.I've improved a lot, I now spend more time on my feet than on my back. Derek has noticed to, as he no longer spends his time constantly on his feet. On frequent occasions, I've been able to knock him down.We were about to start our last spar of the day. I watched Derek get up - after I had tackled him
Alejandro's POVI entered the cell, a glass of water in my hands. Approaching the sleeping witch, I kicked his side in order to wake him up.He woke up with a jolt, opening his eyes wide as he scanned the dimly lit room in alarm. "What did you see?" I asked, placing the glass on the other side of the room. My voice cut through the silence and he immediately peered up in my direction.A glint of amusement shone in his eyes and the look of panic vanished just as quickly as it appeared. "When I'm speaking to someone, I find it common etiquette to maintain eye contact as we talk; it brings a sense of mutual respect to the conversation, so if you could turn on the light I'd be extremely grateful." The witch always spoke with a tint of humour in his voice. He was a spiteful old man who enjoyed watching me boil in anger, if only he wasn't the key to gaining leverage over the werewolves, I would've disposed of him a long time ago.Without a word, I switched on th
