Theo POV.Thank the Goddess Fen was there with Mia when that happened. I lost my head. I didn’t know what to do. I just watched on in shock as my mate bled out. Watching our pups feeding from Mia snaps me out of the shock as I cry. Fuck, that was a close call. If we didn’t share Fen’s life force, we would have lost Mia and the pups. I was useless at saving her, but Fen was calm and collected. That is the reason he is the Alpha and not me. I cracked seeing Mia like that, whereas Fen stood up and took charge. I failed them and I can’t look at Mia right now.“Theo, you didn’t fail them. It was a shock.” I look at Fen as he speaks in my mind.“Thank you, Fen, for saving them. If you weren’t here, they wouldn’t have survived.” I look away from him when Mia looks at me, knowing what is running through my mind.“Theo, come here. We are safe. It was massive shock for all of us,” Mia says with a tired smile on her face as she cradles our pups. I sigh as I move towards her, looking down at the p
Mia POV.“Don’t let anyone near our pups, Mia. Something is going to happen. I can feel it. We must protect them both at all costs.” The gut feeling I have been having lately has been growing and even though my pups are a few hours old, the feeling has intensified. “I know. I think we need to leave the packhouse with them and set up a new home. I don’t like this feeling at all, Chaos. Especially now that Fen wants to bind our daughter. Over my dead body, will that happen!” I snarl as I speak to my wolf and she snarls back in agreement. He will not harm Gaia if he tries. I will fight him to protect my pups. Regardless of if he is their father.Placing the pups on the bed, I sit beside them and gently stroke their perfect faces and I smile. They both lean into my touch. The amount of love I have for them makes my heart want to burst. I would kill for them, die for them, do everything I can to protect them. They are mine. The scent of caramel wafts into the room. Chaos pushes forward
Fenrir POV. “Sel, Sel. I need your help.” I shout as I walk through the halls towards the library. This library holds all the knowledge. All the spells and the forbidden magic that we have kept hidden from the world. Some of the tomes and scrolls are ancient and were removed from the humans and kept here where no one can get to them. “What do you need, brother?” She appears out of nowhere with a snarl. I look at her and her eyes glow, I gulp. The last time I saw her we fought and I’m not ashamed to say she kicked my ass and nearly destroyed my palace. “The pups have been born. My daughter has too much power, Sel. The hate coming from her makes me choke. She is powerful Sel. I need your help with her. If Fate gets hold of her, it will be game over.” I say as I walk towards her and she sighs, looking down the hall. “Fate won’t touch her. She has already set things in a different direction Fen. You need to figure this out for yourself. If you bind your pup, you will do more harm than
Theo POV.Fen is acting strange. He is constantly staring at Mia. The way he is looking at her is making me uncomfortable. Now and then, his gaze shifts to Gaia. He doesn’t look at her with love, more like fear and disgust. How can he be disgusted with his daughter? Either way, I don’t like it, and it’s causing Atticus to react each time he walks close to Mia.“So Fen, did you speak to Sel?” I ask and Mia looks up from unpacking her clothes. He looks at me and smirks at me, nodding his head. A shiver runs down my spine.“Yes, I did. She is happy about the birth of her niece and nephew.” I watch him and I click my tongue before nodding my head at him. Something is off with him.“I can’t speak to his beast. He is blocking me.” Atticus says and I watch him as he moves to help unpack.“Something is wrong. That isn’t our Fen.” I tell him and he agrees.“Keep your eyes on him, Theo. I don’t like this.” I agree with him. At least we agree on this. Usually Atticus is the sap who wants to roll
Fenrir POV.“What did you do?” I grab fate by her neck and slam her into the wall, snarling in her face.“You made your choice. This is the cost of it. How else did you know to siphon your pup’s power?” she laughs as my claws extend, drawing blood from her neck and she hisses at it.“It was you, the voice?” I say and she laughs, shaking her head.“No. You siphoned her power, but not all of it. You need to go back and finish it.” I throw her into the opposite wall and she crashes through it as I stalk her.“I will never do that. You have fucked with the wrong wolf, Fate. I will find a way to kill you for what you have done.” She staggers to stand but shakes her head with a sigh.“No, Fenrir. You did this. Not me. I gave you the suggestion, but ultimately you decided to nearly kill your pup. Not me.” She laughs as she speaks and my eyes widen at her words. She is right, it was me.“I fucking warned you. Did you not read the whole fucking thing?” My beast snaps at me and I close my eyes,
Mia POV.I jolt awake, frantically searching for my pups.“GAIA, NICHOLAS, THEO!” I scream as I fall from the bed when the door bursts open as tears stream down my face.“Mia, it’s OK. They are safe, we’re safe.” His hands hold my face as I grip his wrists when Heather, Kendra, Destinee, and Titus enter the room. I scramble up off of the floor and run towards my pups. Checking them over as I sob.“I’m sorry, I’m so sorry, my darlings. Mommy won’t let anything happen to you.” I kiss them both on their heads as they both coo like nothing happened. It wasn’t a dream. I saw what he did and I feel an intense rage building within me, the rage of needing to protect what is mine.“Mia, what did he do?” Destinee growls and I turn to look at her and I want to kill her. But I know it’s not her fault, but still I can’t help the feeling that is running through me.“He was siphoning her power. He could have killed her. That thing isn’t my mate or your brother, he was something else. I’m sorry, Dest
Mia POV.It has been a week since Selene took my pups and it has made Chaos more savage not being with her pups. I have cried myself to sleep every night and cry throughout the day. Walking aimlessly through the packhouse, everyone looks at me with pity and I ignore the looks. I don’t need their pity; I need their strength.“Aunty Mia, come outside.” Dahlia takes my hand and, as much as I want to tell her no, she drags me outside. I blink at the sunlight that reflects off the snow. I move through it, allowing the cold to numb me further when we walk towards the assault course. I stop and look at her.“You said you would do this with me. So come on, let’s do this.” I shake my head when she pouts at me with her hands on her hips.“Ok, well, then I beat you at it. You grown-ups are no fun.” I smile for the first time since the day my pups were born. As I look at her.“Ok, but you have to show me what to do.” I say to her as her face lights up and a sly smirk lifts in the corner of her li
Mia POV.Nervous energy swirls around the packhouse. Our impending doom is palpable in the air, thick enough to taste it. Laying naked on the chest of Theo as he runs his fingers up and down my spine. Sleep eludes us both.“Theo, whatever happens, know I love you and Fen so much. Please find Selene and protect our pups.” Tears well in my eyes as I look back over the wonderful memories of my mates before this shitstorm happened.“Hey, look at me.” I meet his gaze as tears shimmer in his eyes at my words. My emotions become his and vice versa.“We will get through this, I promise. We will be reunited with our pups after this. Ok, in the morning we can’t look at Fenrir as our mate. Right now, he is the enemy and we must defeat him.” He says and I bite my lip but nod my head at his words. He and I both know it’s pointless. Fenrir isn’t Fenrir anymore, he is the evil, war mongering Harbinger of Death. But something tells me our Fenrir is still in there somewhere deep within him. He wouldn’
Gaia POV.“Wake up, bitch face. It’s time. Come on. I want out.” I groan as I roll over Kodiak. My wolf is prancing around in my head. Today is mine and Nicohlas’s 18th birthday. He becomes the Alpha of The Dark moon Pack and I become the Goddess of Hell and the new Harbinger of Death. But this hangover needs to fuck off first. I knew it wasn’t a great idea to sneak into my dad’s bar last night to get hammered, but here we are.We moved to the Dark Moon Pack when we were ten years old after mom and dad’s rebuilt it to it’s former glory. No matter which pack you go to, they are all the same. All cowering to hide our existence. Well, that will change today. I have plans to being us all into the light. Those plans start today when I take my place.My bedroom door bursts open as Nicholas and Sofia enter. Sofia climbs in bed beside me and cuddles me. We do this every morning and we have done since she started walking. I will miss her, Nicholas, not so much. He is annoying, and he hopes his
Asteria POV.Sitting on my rock overlooking the land, I look back at how I became this way. Human’s are vile, disgusting creatures. Everything they touch turns to shit. They destroy everything, the land, the air, and my waters. They release their filth and destroy eco systems all in a pursuit of power and more.I was never like this. No, but my life was destroyed over five thousand years ago. When I watched as my home was burned to the ground and everyone slaughtered by pirates.FLASHBACK!I am twelve years old, in my human village. Yes, I was human once. I was born under the blood moon. With jet black hair and violet eyes. I was told growing up I was cursed, a witch, but I was so much more than that.The oracle told my parents that I was destined for war and so I was shunned by the village, but not my parent’s or brother. They loved me and I loved them. Until the night of the full blood moon on my birthday. Pirates invaded our village.I ran away as I watched the women in my village b
Fenrir POV.It has now been three months since the birth of Sofia and boy, is she such a good baby. She doesn’t fuss or cry for too long. She is always smiling and cooing. Sofia is definitely the light in our lives, no more or less than Gaia and Nicholas.Mia stopped breast feeding a few days ago, and we have begun weaning her. She is move advanced than the average pup as she is Alpha blooded and so they tend to grow and develop their senses a lot quicker. It won’t be long before she is crawling and getting into all kinds of trouble. The twins are obsessed with her. They help with everything, from feeding her and helping with bath times and putting her to bed.Since Sofia came along, I have noticed the changes in Gaia. She isn’t as hostile as she once was. They both are extremely protective of their little sister and it’s cute to see. They seem to know what she needs before we do. I laugh as I watch them both sitting on the floor, showing Sofia how to roll and crawl.“Ok, you two. She
Mia POV.A scream rips from my lips as I’m hit with another contraction. The pain is that intense that I feel like I’m being ripped apart from the inside out. Burning pain sears through my lower belly.“Breathe, my love, breathe.” Fen is really trying to help and so is Theo, but all I do is growl at them both. I know they are only helping, but it isn’t helping. I can spit fire with how much pain I’m in right now. A whimper leaves my lips as the contraction dies down.“I can’t do this.” I say breathless like I’ve just ran a marathon. Sweat is dripping down my back and I want to get up and walk around, but I have a monitor strapped to my belly, monitoring the contractions and the heartbeat of Sofia.Fen and Theo got me to the pack hospital and I don’t want to be here. I want to be under the full moon as I bring our daughter into the world. But I’m high risk and need to be here.“Have a rest, Mia. You are doing beautifully. It won’t be long now until she is here.” I glare at the midwife,
Mia POV.Walking around the maternity section of the store with Destinee, I needed to get some last-minute bits, like nursing bras and nursing pads. No-one wants wet milky patches on their tops.“Are you ok Mia?” I look at her and smile.“Yeah, I’m just a little tired. Sofia had a huge growth spurt and I know I only have a week to go, so apart from that I’m ok. Are you?” I ask as I look at the nursing bras and pick the size I will need before putting them in the trolley.“Yeah, Titus wants another pup.” I stop as I look at her, and she sighs before picking up the pads I need.“Is that a bad thing?” I ask as I gauge her reaction when she shakes her head.“No, it’s not. But it’s so damn tiring running around after three pups and then to add another one. I love my pups and mate, but seriously, if he knew and understood how it felt, I’m sure he wouldn’t want anymore.” I smirk as I remember what Chaos said about human women using a machine on their partners to simulate the contractions. Th
Theo POV.Today is the big day and to say I’m nervous is definitely not correct. What if she runs? What if something happens to her on the way here? No, I can’t think like this. Everything will be fine.“Ok, Theo, can you stop freaking out? You are making me nervous.” Atticus is pacing in my head, matching my anxiety. When I stop and look in the mirror, taking a few breaths to calm myself down when Fen steps into the room. He comes up behind me and pulls me to his chest. His hand holding my hips.“Calm down. She will be there.” His hand moves lower as he grabs my cock over my pants and I lean back into him as he kisses my neck and I shiver.“Don’t play with fire, Fen, otherwise you will be on your knees and we will be late.” I tell him as I turn in his hold and kiss him, grinding my hips against him as he groans.“Tonight then. I will bend you over and take that ass of yours.” He whispers in my ear, and I shudder at the underlying promise. Mia has been insatiable, and so her hormones
Fenrir POV.I’m nervous as hell today. It’s a check up of our pup. I am pacing the waiting room when Mia sighs as she looks at me. Theo chuckles as he knows how I’m feeling because he was like this the first time around.“Fen, can you sit down? You’re making me anxious and you’re wearing a hole in the floor.” Mia says as I look at her before sitting next to her. Why am I so nervous? I start to bounce my foot when Mia places a hand on my knee, stopping me.“Sorry, my love. This is still new to me. What if something is wrong with the pup?” Mia sighs as she looks at me softly and smiles at me.“Fen, nothing is wrong with our pup. Everything will be fine. I would know if there was something wrong. Just breathe, ok.” I nod to stop myself from freaking out. When Mia’s name is called and I’m up on alert as I take her hand and walk her towards the room. Over the last week, Mia’s bump has appeared and so my beast and I are more protective than normal, if that is even possible. I have already b
Mia POV.I blink at what the warrior has just told me. What? Destinee takes my hand in hers as I look at her.“You deserve this, Mia. You have been through so much in your life. Go and be the Queen you were born to be.” I wipe my tears away as she gently pulls me into a hug. The thought of everything I have been through has come crashing back into me. This has been a great day, but my hormones are all over the place. I turn and look at the high end boutique in front of me as the front door opens and out steps four beautiful she-wolves with gentle smiles on their faces.“Go and I’ll see you tomorrow. Whatever my brother is up to, enjoy it. Now go on, Momma, and have fun.” She kisses my cheek and I kiss her back as she enters the SUV, giving me a wave. I turn and look at the women in front of me. I am overwhelmed by all this.“Hello Luna Mia, I am Mischa and this is my team. Please follow me and let’s get you ready.” I nod at her as she takes my hand and leads me into the boutique. My j
Mia POV.Jumping out of bed and running towards the bathroom, I make it to the toilet and throw up. Goddamn morning sickness. How I don’t miss this? Fen enters the bathroom and rubs my back as he pulls my hair up away from my face. Tears stream down my face as I retch again, dry heaving as I spit a mouthful of saliva into the toilet. Sweat lines my forehead as I weakly flush the toilet.“Here, my love, drink this.” Fen hands me an opened bottle of water. With shaking hands, I take it and sip it, swirling it around my mouth before I spit it out.“I hate this.” I mumble as he chuckles, picking me up off of the cold tiled floor and placing me on the vanity. He hands me my toothbrush with toothpaste on it and I start to brush my teeth.“I know, my love, but it will be worth it when you get to hold our pup for the first time.” He strokes my face as I swat his hand away as I brush my teeth. He chuckles at me as I glare at him. What does he know? I would like to see him throw up every mornin
