TRIGGER WARNING. ABUSE/VIOLENCEIzzy’s povOrion didn’t believe me. It hurt my heart so much that I could barely sleep. We’ve slept together in the same bed for weeks now, and I felt so alone. I thought if he knew who he was, Orion would feel better. That we could be together without any lies or hidden truths.But he thought I was lying. Was this it? Would Orion give me another chance to explain? Would he wait for me to shift, or was this the end of us?I screamed out against my pillow, which was soaking wet from all the tears. Why did I have to tell him now? Why couldn’t I just wait!I knew why. It’s because I felt this stupid urge to. I had this overwhelming feeling that if I didn’t tell him soon, it would be too late. This was my chance to tell him.It wasn’t until the next day, when four familiar faces stood in Luke’s diner, that I realized why I had the urge to tell Orion everything.They were taking me back. If I hadn’t told Orion last night, he would have never known. Maybe time
The Luna Prophecy 27. Pressure
Izzy’s povI lay on the floor, trying to breathe through the pain until I felt strong enough to crawl to the bathroom. I pulled myself up so I could turn the shower on and then sat on the bathroom floor, letting the water hit me, still fully dressed.After sitting there for ten minutes, I started taking off my wet clothes slowly. I washed away the blood and checked out my injuries. I was pretty sure I had broken some bones, and there were already bruises showing on my back, stomach, legs, and arms. The only place that looked kind of okay was my head, because I had protected it with the rest of my body. Except for the large bruise on my forehead from when Jordan slapped my head against the wall.But I wasn’t giving up. I needed to get the hell out of here, but I needed to save my strength to do this. So maybe sitting here in the shower for a bit longer and feeling sorry for myself wasn’t such a bad thing. While I knew Jordan would hurt me, it was a lot worse than I thought. I didn’t hav
The Luna Prophecy 28. Truth
Orion’s pov‘Stop taking the pills.’No. Even if Jordan took Izzy, that didn't necessarily mean she was telling the truth about everything. It was still too crazy to believe what she said was true. I was a werewolf. My mom was a werewolf.No.‘Go see the doctor.’That might not be the worst idea. He could either calm me down so I could forge a plan, clear-headed and not focused on this crazy thing, or he’d tell me Izzy was right. Which I doubted. Werewolves? No.aFuck. Was I actually going to listen to Knox?Besides, the doctor was still in a coma. He was injured badly, so‘He has healed by now.’Seriously? That voice had been quiet for over a year, maybe more, and now he wouldn’t shut up! I was taking the damn pills.‘Imagine how strong I’ll be if you stop.’Fuck off! Damn, I couldn't think with him constantly talking to me. I needed to get Izzy back from her crazy ex, but she said he was powerful. So if I just showed up on my own, it would probably lead to a lot of violence. I needed
The Luna Prophecy 29. Wolf
Orion’s povI told Erin I was going after Izzy, without explaining the whole werewolf thing. Just that Izzy’s ex probably forced her to go back home and that she needed my help.Erin gave me some extra money to take with me and told me to get her back safely.I didn’t know how long it would take for the pills to stop having an effect on me, but I had two days to find out. After a few hours of driving, I stopped to get some gas and supplies, not wanting to waste any time sitting down to eat somewhere.When I had driven for twenty-four hours, I stopped to rest my eyes on an abandoned parking lot. After sleeping for a bit, I woke up to the voice I had been ignoring for years. It was time for us to finally have a conversation.‘I am Knox, your wolf.’‘I get that now.’ I replied, still feeling weirded out by talking back to the voice.‘I am not just a voice, remember.’ Knox softly growled.‘I’m really sorry.’ I replied. ‘I honestly didn’t know.’Knox sighed. "I know, Orion. But we need to w
The Luna Prophecy 30. Promise
Izzy’s pov Even though I was in more pain than I had ever been, I felt such relief knowing I wouldn’t be around Jordan for at least a while. The doctor took me in an ambulance to the hospital, where my parents were waiting for me with Finn and a woman I didn't know. "You can see her later; we first need to access the damage, Beta Connor." The doctor told my dad. I saw the look of guilt on Finn’s face, before the door of the exam room closed. The doctor gave me a quick exam, looking worried, before he gave me an IV, and I started to feel drowsy. I didn’t know how much time had passed, but I woke up feeling groggy and still in pain. I remembered waking up a few times before, but it was like I immediately fell back asleep again. I couldn’t remember much, and I had no idea how long I had been here. It could have been minutes or hours; I had no clue. I kept my eyes closed; the light was hurting them, but I heard people in the room talking. "Like I explained earlier, Isadora broke sev
The Luna Prophecy 31. Familiar
Orion’s pov"Why are you here?" A Latino-looking man kept asking before hitting me in the face.He had been questioning me for days, but I refused to talk. Knox told me not to reveal too much about myself because if they knew I was here for Izzy, they might kill me without a second thought.It was painful, but now that I had Knox, I was healing four times faster than normal. I was being held by silver chains, and there was wolfsbane in the water I was given. I could feel the familiar burn. But because I was used to taking silver and wolfsbane through the doctor’s pills, it didn’t affect me as much as it should.Apparently, I had grown slightly immune to the effects. At least, that was what Knox believed. I didn’t have a clue about any of these things; I just wanted to get out of here and get Izzy back. But Knox told me to pretend I was hurt, so they wouldn’t give me a higher dose.There was only one man that came to visit me to ask me questions, and he always gave me one bottle of wate
The Luna Prophecy 32. Outside
Izzy’s povWhile I was relieved that I wouldn’t have to see Jordan for several days, I was worried sick about Orion.Alpha Ethan said he wouldn’t hurt him if I kept my promise, but what would that mean? Would he keep Onion here as a way to make sure I behave? Or would he get to leave the pack and go back home?If that was the case, I so desperately wanted to see Orion one last time. I wanted to see him now that he had made peace with his wolf. Now that he was finally who he was supposed to be.But I still had to stay in the hospital for another day, and after that, I’d be taken home.To my surprise, Alpha Ethan stopped by again before I left, making me swear not to share our deal with anyone outside the room at the time under Alpha Command. This meant it would hurt like hell if I even tried to talk to someone about it. The only people who knew that Orion was important enough for me to stay were Alpha Ethan, Finn, and Gamma Ricardo.Was this to protect me? If Jordan came back and heard
The Luna Prophecy 33. Father.
Orion’s pov"So I am not allowed to leave, am I? It’s just a fancier prison?" I asked my so-called dad after spending two days in the "pack" house.If this was a packhouse, meaning a house for the pack of werewolves that lived here, why were the only people here Alpha Ethan, a few servants, and his mate Nicole. Sorry, Luna Nicole, who was really unpleasant, by the way. Either she ignored me or she insulted me. If I were Alpha Ethan's son, it might just make her head explode. ‘Omegas. The servants are called omegas.’ Knox reminded me. ‘And a packhouse is meant for the Alpha’s family and, in some cases, the Beta’s family to live and work. In some packs, the house is also meant as a place for the pack to gather, but you’re right, it has been really quiet.’This guy with red hair stopped by on my second day out of the dungeon. I saw him looking up at me, and I suspected it was Finn, Izzy’s brother. Or this pack just has a lot of ginger people living here.Alpha Ethan sighed, "I can show y

The Luna Prophecy 67. The End.
Orion’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
The Luna Prophecy 66. Blessed
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
The Luna Prophecy 65. Judgement
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
The Luna Prophecy 64. Moral Compass
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
The Luna Prophecy 63. Battle
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
The Luna Prophecy 62. Distraction
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

The Luna Prophecy 61. Show Her.
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
The Luna Prophecy 60. Wolf Boy
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?
