Naomi D.Sorry took me long to write this. i wasn't really sure if I wanted to include Jordan not being her mate yet, but I don't like to drag out the story too much. Next few chapters will be Orion's pov.

Orion’s povDad, no, that sounds weird. Alpha Ethan allowed me to walk around now that I was officially his son. Not that anyone was supposed to know that bit of information yet; Alpha Ethan wanted to wait to tell his pack after the party in a few days.‘Because knowing who you are puts Jordan’s position at risk.’ Knox growled.‘I don’t want the position, just Izzy. This pack can go to hell. I just want my girl.’When people greeted us every time, he introduced me as Orion from the Midnight Moon pack. That was the pack my mother came from."Your mother and I met at a party held at the Midnight Moon pack. I hadn’t found my mate yet, and she was seventeen. But there was this instant connection. We had so much in common, and we fell hard. Too hard." Alpha Ethan explained when we walked through a less crowded part of the city.I smelled Izzy’s scent more clearly here, and I tried to steer us towards her scent. Alpha Ethan didn’t seem to notice; he was too caught up in remembering his first

Orion’s pov"I didn’t agree to this. You never said,-" I heard a woman whisper. It was hard to make out her voice, especially since it felt like I had been hit by a ton of bricks.And where was Knox? I had wanted to lose his voice inside my head for years, but now that it was really gone, I missed him. He always had my back.Another voice replied, "you’re in too deep, Mathilda. It was you who hired the tracker in the first place.""The tracker? What? You mean the one who went after Adriana years ago? What does that have to do with him?"The second woman scoffed, "don’t you see the resemblance? I tortured the bitch for days before killing her, and she never spilled her guts about having an illegitimate son. She was strong; I have to give her that."She killed my mother?! I wanted to open my eyes. I wanted to do a lot of things right now, but I was too weak.I knew this feeling well, I had been drugged with wolfsbane. But they had used a lot more than last time. I tried to think back to

Izzy's pov"Let’s get you dressed." Mom said. She smiled at me, but the smile didn’t reach her eyes."Are you okay, mom?"Mom smiled again, "yes, sweety. But it’s not easy for a mom to see her youngest go. It took a few years before Finn found his mate, but you found yours as soon as you woke up. You’re only eighteen, and I wish I had more time with you.""I don’t want to go, mom." I admitted."To the party?"I shook my head, "no, I don’t want to leave here. I don’t want to live with him."While I was still scared that Jordan or Alpha Ethan would hurt Orion if I refused, having Ember made me defiant. And knowing that Jordan wasn’t my mate was enough proof to know that not even the Moon Goddess wanted me to be with him. I had to try; maybe my parents could find me a way out of this situation.Mom sighed, "still? Even after the bond? Isadora, please, honey. You promised to give him a chance.""Please, mommy." I begged. Feeling like a little girl again. "I don’t feel safe with him."Mom t

Orion’s povI woke up in excruciating pain. The sun was high in the sky, meaning it was around lunch time. Shit, I had to get to Izzy. I wanted to scream out in pain, but it felt like a waste of energy. I needed that energy to get to the woman I loved.‘Can we shift?’ I asked Knox.‘It’s better if we don’t. Save your strength for later.’I started walking, trying to run short distances, before my legs started to feel like jelly. I was still bleeding from some wounds; some had healed, and the blood was sticking to my skin, not to mention the blood of all the rogues we killed. I probably looked like a serial killer out of a horror movie, but that didn’t matter right now.What did matter was the pain in my body. My right leg had a large bite out of it, and my side was totally blue and covered in bites and scratches. I must have bruised some ribs. My arms had bites and scratches, and my feet were killing me with each step I took.‘We’re slowly healing, and the wolfsbane is almost out of yo

Izzy’s pov‘I will kill your family if you tell anyone. You think that just because you found your mate, you can keep him? I couldn’t keep mine either, Isadora. You’re my Luna.’ Jordan growled inside my head.Jordan's words didn’t register until later. All I heard was that he would kill my family. I didn’t know how he had done it, but he had made it seem like Finn and my mother were guilty of trying to kill Orion and his mother.I was sure they weren’t involved, but the look in my mom’s eyes made me doubt her innocence. What did she have to gain from killing Orion or his mother? How did she even know Orion’s mother? And why did Alpha Ethan care this much about Orion’s life since he said he would hurt him anyway if I didn’t keep my promise.Alpha Ethan wasn’t just acting like an Alpha; he was really pissed that someone tried to kill Orion.‘There is something more going on,’ Ember said.There must be a reason for Zahra to tell me to sign "challenge him" to Orion. What did she know?I sa

Finn’s pov While I knew it was a possibility that I’d be locked up, I never expected this to be the reason. Jordan was apparently smarter than he looked.The jerk had always had faith in me, and that had not changed since Izzy's return. Or maybe I’d been too preoccupied with Zahra and trying to gather evidence to notice. Mom and dad might not be willing to help Izzy, but I would do whatever it took to get Izzy away from Jordan. Even if it meant making sure he wouldn't be the alpha of this pack.When I heard her boyfriend’s name, it all clicked for me and made me even more determined."How did you do it?" Gamma Ricardo asked before punching me in the ribs.I still wasn’t sure who Orion was exactly, but if I got this treatment, he must be special. All I knew was that he came here for Izzy and was locked up until she promised to give Jordan a chance. But actually letting him walk around and stay in the packhouse like a guest? That showed he wasn't just any Alpha male."I didn’t fucking

Orion’s povNobody had told Izzy who I really was. Of course they didn't, because none of them wanted me here. Why did I need to play by their stupid rules anyway? Prophecies, Lunas, Alphas, and all this other bullshit didn’t mean anything to me. The only thing that mattered to me was the beautiful redhead staring at me in surprise."Alpha Ethan is your father?"I nodded my head at my mate. The whole concept of mates was foreign to me, but it did explain why I had this connection to Izzy from the start. She was my soulmate.Izzy was seated next to her father. Jordan and my evil stepmother sat across from them, and at the head of the table was my father."He’s not his father. Dad is nothing more than his sperm donor. I am the one who has been training to take over; I am the rightful heir. Not some bastard he made with a slu,-" before he could finish calling my mother a hurtful name. Alpha Ethan had slapped his son."Don’t you dare!"Izzy took this opportunity to sign, [I’m sorry. I didn

Izzy’s pov "What was Orion talking about?" Dad asked as soon as we got home. "I heard you, you know. You and Finn... I know how you’re sticking your head in the sand, because it’s the only way you’ll be able to trust the Moon Goddess’ plan." "Izzy, is Orion your mate? If he’s Ethan’s son, then the prophecy can still exist. Then perhaps everything that happened did happen for a reason." I laughed mockingly, "you never cared what Jordan did to me or if I loved him. Especially mom. Her only focus was to make me the next Luna, whatever it took. Apparently to the point of kidnapping Orion and trying to kill him. I never had a choice, and it’s foolish to think I do now. So what’s the point?" Dad sighed, putting his hands through his hair in frustration. "your mother is many things, but not a killer. She has never experienced that feeling of guilt, bloodlust, or anger. I would have felt it if she did. She may have had a hand in this, but she didn’t do it alone. If I had to choose, I’d po

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

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.

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?
