Finn shook his head and handed me an envelope. "You have to leave. Right now." "What do you mean? Leave where? I can't leave this room; Jordan said he'd drag me back here." Finn cursed, "Leave this fucking pack. Go live with the humans. Anywhere. Don't tell me where. Just leave. Life will only get worse, Izzy. Jordan is not a good guy." "But mom and dad, and you..." Finn gave me a hug, "I know it's scary, and I'm sorry. But I just know that if you stay here, one day he'll kill you. If he can do this to you in the packhouse filled with people, imagine what he'll do once it's just you and him living here. Once he's alpha, he'll get to do whatever he wants. Jordan has always hated that prophecy for some reason. I don't have time to explain, but you need to go." - - - Izzy leaves her pack, knowing she's going against the prophecy that was given to her at birth by the oracle. One day Izzy is supposed to become the Luna, but she hates the idea of sharing a life with the future Alpha Jordan. Izzy runs away to a human town, where she lives in a cheap motel, pretending to be human. This is where she meets Orion. They have an instant connection, but Orion has a secret of his own. He has spent years in prison and a mental hospital after having a psychosis and hearing a voice in his hand, claiming he's a werewolf. What will happen once Orion realizes he's not crazy? And will Jordan and his pack ever stop looking for his prophesied Luna?
View MoreOrion’s pov If I thought being an alpha was hard, I was in for a big fucking surprise. Being a dad is so much harder. You’d think that everything I went through would have prepared me, but it’s so different when it’s twins. It’s also so different when they’re newborns. And it's just different when they're your kids. I've helped raise my foster siblings, but they weren't this small. They could do a lot of things themselves. Mateo and Grace are simply helpless without us. Izzy and I try to take turns waking up, but most of the time we both wake up when either Grace or Mateo screams. They wake each other up, too. Especially Grace; she is the loudest baby I have ever met. But goddess, is she cute! She already has her mom’s tiny red curls. It’s adorable. I don’t think I’ll be able to tell her no. Like ever. One look with her big eyes, and I’ll give her whatever she wants. And then Mateo. He is just as cute, and he’s my twin; at least that's what everyone says. It’s so strange to se
Izzy’s pov - - One year later - - As I looked around our pack, I felt such pride. Pride in how our pack had handled the loss of so many with grace. We had come together and supported those who needed us. But we also took pride in how we had grown up together. Orion and I had decided to create a council, similar to our jury, where people from all ranks could join. We met with them weekly, to discuss everything they deemed important. This way, we always knew what was happening around our pack, and it also meant that if anybody found it frightening to speak to their alpha or Luna, they could go to their representative instead. Never again would anyone be able to get away with hurting someone in our pack because of their rank. Orion walked towards me, putting his arms around me and placing both his hands on my belly. “It’s almost time,” he said, before giving me a quick kiss on my mark. “Time for what, Oreo?” I asked, looking up to find him staring at me the way he always does. E
Orion’s pov The pack was buzzing. Everyone was waiting to hear the announcement that either me or Izzy would seen broadcast through the pack link. It was up to the parents discretion to discuss the final judgment with their kids or not. Knowing how pups are raised, there was a good chance they’d share the news anyway. Everyone already expected Nicole to be found guilty. The proof against the former Luna of our pack had been piling up. We had allowed everyone who was wronged by Nicole to speak, if they chose to. Even Izzy’s mom spoke up. After her testimony Izzy had slowly started speaking to her mother more. I wasn’t sure if she would ever forgive her mother, but she at least wanted to be cordial to her. Then there were all the people who lost someone they loved during the attack. Some of them couldn’t handle the loss of their mate and in the coming weeks there were more people dying of a broken heart of self-inflicted wounds than ever before. While we had offered help to everyon
Izzy’s pov I was nervous. I was really nervous, but I could feel everything Orion was feeling. One of us needed to be calm-headed, so I pushed my feelings down. Orion could do this; I had all the confidence in him that he lacked right now. Not only is my mate strong and capable, but he is a fierce protector of those he loves. He’s always been this way. That’s the alpha in him. It’s always been there, before Orion even realized what he really was. As much as I hate that stupid prophecy and everything it brought me, I can’t deny one thing. I am the Luna of this pack, and Orion is the rightful Alpha. He needs to stop doubting himself. ‘Once the pack rallies behind him,-‘ I stopped my wolf from finishing her sentence. It had nothing to do with the pack. Orion’s confidence had to come from within. Although I am glad he responded to my comment, it wasn’t me or anyone else that needed to tell Orion he was here for a reason. Maybe he just needed to do it. To prove to himself that he was
Orion’s pov We’ve been preparing for this day for weeks, but it’s very different to actually have it happen. Together with our soldiers, Izzy and I ran towards the border where the rogues were trying to get in. Although I didn’t want Izzy here, it wasn't really safe for her or anyone else. I couldn’t hold her back. This was Izzy’s pack, more than mine, and if she wanted to defend it, then she should. If we, as a team, run this pack, then we should also defend it as a team as well. But I was terrified of losing her. My mate, my Luna, my girl. There was no way in hell I would be able to run this pack without her or live without her. I’ve been attacked by rogues before, but that was a small group. But seeing this... This was different. Rogues don’t know how to fight fair. They are beasts, animals. It’s like the difference between people who hunt for food and those who hunt exotic animals for fun. They have no compassion, no moral compass. They don’t kill to survive; they kill becau
Izzy’s pov It took Erin a lot longer than I thought it would to get used to life here. She started working in the packhouse, helping out with cooking and whatever else needed to be done. It also helped that one of our widowed wolves seemed to find her very attractive, and he kept hanging around the packhouse kitchen all day long. Erin had not said yes to his invitation for a date, but she hadn't told him to stop coming around either. Perhaps the thought of being with someone who was a werewolf was a step too far for now. But I think she’s learning that we’re not that different from humans. Well, except for our ranks, our mates, the way we rule the pack, and our battles. Okay, maybe we do live a very different life than humans do. But it didn’t really matter what Erin and Ezra thought of life here, because it’s the only place right now where they are safe. And ever since they’ve come here and learned the truth, Orion seems to relax more too. As much as is possible while knowing an
hi,I've been having a tough week and needed a break. but I will try to write this weekend or Monday at the latest.I'm okay, just dealing with some stuff that makes it hard to concentrate. Kids are good, boyfriend too. So, nothing too serious. Maybe in time, I'll share more of what's been happening. (Once everything is settled) But for now, just know I'll do my best to go back to normal starting next Monday. Thank you for your concern and patience.Ik hou van jullie. (Love you)Naomi. p.s. too lazy to throw this through spell check program, so sorry in advance for any mistakes.
Orion’s pov“You’re joking.” Erin said, looking at me like I was crazy. I hated that look, but I knew she didn’t mean anything by it.I had been trying to explain what we were and that what she had seen Nicole do wasn't in her mind.“You were attacked by a woman who had claws. She was like me and Izzy. We’re werewolves. We can shift into a wolf.” I explained calmly.Ezra stood next to me, signing to her that it was the truth.[Show her, like you showed me.] Ezra said, and I took a few steps back before taking off my shirt and pants and shifting into Knox.Ezra stepped back; well, he practically ran back and stared at me with big eyes.‘He meant just shift partially, idiot,’ Knox said, but I needed them both to see the truth. The whole truth.I carefully walked towards the bed, my head low, until I reached Erin’s hand.She touched my snout. “It’s real?”Ezra slowly walked towards me and started petting my fur, laughing softly and shaking his head in disbelief. He knew what we were, bu
Izzy’s pov ‘She’s awake,’ the doctor mindlinked me and Orion. We both quickly put our clothes on and rushed to the hospital, where Ezra was already waiting. [Something is wrong. She’s freaking out. She keeps saying something about claws.] He signed to Orion. Erin’s wrist was still bandaged, which made it hard for her to sign using two hands. Not that she was in any state to sign. "Where is that woman? Is she here? Please, please, Orion, don’t let her get to me." Erin said, looking around frantically. She whispered towards us, as if she didn’t trust the doctor. "She had claws. I know it sounds strange, but she had claws." Ezra looked at us, reading his mother’s lips. [See. Claws. Something is wrong.] Orion shook his head, and I mindlinked my mate. ‘You should tell Ezra the truth, and I will deal with Erin.’ Orion seemed conflicted, but once I sat down next to Erin’s bed and took her good hand in mine, he nodded and asked Ezra to step out. "Do you remember that time I was sick?
Izzy’s pov The fish caught my eye immediately. I had never seen so many fish; the fish tank was filled with beautifully colored fish. They were small and moved in groups, reminding me of home. They move as one, a beautiful school of fish. It was similar to one of the traditions we had at the pack. On every full moon, the ones who are blessed with wolves go out and run as one, sending praise to the Moon Goddess. Do fish have a goddess? Nah, that would be silly. I was so busy staring at the fish that I didn’t even feel the eyes of someone staring at me through the back of the tank. It was his smell that drew my attention to him. I had never smelled anything like him; I didn’t even think humans could smell this good. I looked up, and his eyes found mine. Was I secretly trapped in that movie with Leonardo DiCaprio, "Romeo and Juliet"? This man staring at me was far more handsome than Leonardo was in his younger days, which was saying something because Leo was a bit of a hottie back the
