Izzy’s pov

I could see the relief in Orion’s eyes after finishing talking to Erin. She was the only family Orion had left. She was his chosen family, but I had seen how close they were. Erin was closer to Orion than my mom had been to me.

Erin actually cared about what Orion wanted and gave him options. She had helped make his life better.

I hoped that soon Orion could get a real relationship with his grandfather, but these things take time, and we didn’t exactly have time since we needed to run a pack.

It was still crazy to me. Orion and I had started our story in the human world, and now we were the Alpha and Luna.

"Five minutes are up, Oreo."

Orion breathed in my scent once more before he reluctantly moved his arms from my body.

"Okay, let’s run a pack." He said, trying to sound enthusiastic.

Suddenly, an idea popped into my head. "What if we let the office stuff over to Finn, Dad, and Zahra today and we go out into the pack?"

"And do what?"

"See the members. You can get t

A calm chapter. Well, sort off. But I am still figuring out what happens next and hopefully this will set up the story a bit.

  • The Luna Prophecy   Free chapter

    This chapter isn't long enough and I figured since you waited so long, it was only fair you get a free chapter. So, hope you like it ;) Nicole’s pov Power is all I wanted all of my life. It’s the way I was raised. It would have been so much better if I had been born a male, but we can’t always get what we want. Sometimes we have to make due with what we have. Alphas rule the pack, and as the Luna, you get some of the benefits but none of the power. It’s not a luna’s job to tell the Alpha how to do his, although I tried to influence my mate as much as possible. But it wasn’t enough. I tried to fill the hole inside of me with jewelry and nice things, but the only thing I truly wanted was to rule. But when Jordan was born, I knew this was my chance to run this pack how I wanted to. I could shape Jordan to become a man who was a worthy Alpha, one who would put fear in others and rule with an iron fist. My mate saw how attached I was to Jordan, and he gave me space to raise him how I

  • The Luna Prophecy   57. Two Days

    Orion’s pov "Two days," I had told the pack. In two days’ time, I would publicly execute Jordan. How? Well, apparently there are many ways an alpha can kill a man, and none of them seem really humane. ‘I can rip his throat out for you. Or bite his whole head off?’ Knox suggested, which wasn’t very helpful or humane. I get that he needed to die. I wanted Jordan to die. It was just the thought of killing a defenseless man that felt wrong. ‘So, let him fight back.’ Knox offered. ‘Let’s do a real challenge without cheating.’ It would be a good way for the pack to see that I truly deserved to be Alpha. That I didn't just get handed the title by my father, but that I was the strongest one out of the two of us. The true heir of this pack. Later that night, I discussed it with Izzy, who didn’t really like the idea. ‘What if he tries something?’ I shook my head, ‘he’s been locked up. I am the alpha, so I am stronger, and he has no allies left.’ Izzy grabbed the folder again, ‘but wha

  • The Luna Prophecy   Note

    Hi, I just wanted to let you all know that my sister is close to giving birth, and I have offered to take her son this weekend to help out. This means I might be too busy to write. I am trying to write for both stories, but I have a hard time focusing since I'm feeling anxious for my sister. This hasn't been an easy pregnancy for her, and I hope it all goes quickly and smoothly. I love the support you've given me so far, and I've really been enjoying writing these stories for you. No pressure, but I would really appreciate a review if you're up for it. It would help me gain more readers. Other than that, I just wanted to say thank you for reading and leaving comments. I get such a kick out of seeing your reactions to each chapter. I had planned most of this story, up until the point Orion became Alpha and I finally have an idea of where to take it next, but for some reason it's been hard to get back into the characters. I probably shouldn't have stopped writing for several week

  • The Luna Prophecy   58. Thank You

    Izzy’s pov I ran after the packdoctor, hoping she could help Erin. Most of our doctors are trained the same way as human doctors, although our pack doctors mostly treat the gravely injured or the members without a wolf. Pups don’t have the same healing abilities we do, although they heal faster than humans. But some injuries are too much for even an adult werewolf to heal, so we need a doctor to assist us in these cases. When I saw Orion, his hands covered in Erin’s blood, holding on to her, it broke my heart. He had lost so many people thanks to Erin, and if he lost her too, I didn't know what he would do. But it wasn't just hard for Orion. I had grown to love Erin, and she was the last person who deserved to be hurt. But I needed to be there for my mate. Make sure I kept a clear head when he may not be able to. The packdoctor took over, bandaging Erin’s wrist so that she could be moved. Orion sat on the ground, staring at the body of his surrogate mother being moved, sitting th

  • The Luna Prophecy   59. Back in the Game

    Orion’s pov It had been three days, and Erin hadn’t woken up yet. In the meantime, I had texted Ezra, and he came here to stay until his mother was out of the hospital. From the outside, our pack seemed like just a small town, but Ezra wasn’t dumb, and he could tell something was up. Even though he spent most of the time in the hospital, whenever we were outside, he could see the way people treated me. It was the opposite of how people treated me when I worked at the Sunflower Motel. My pack members might not all agree with me being their alpha, but they still greeted me with respect. They greeted me respectfully, and some even bowed slightly, barring their necks. There was no way Ezra didn’t notice something. [So they just let you be mayor because of your dad?] He signed when we came back to the packhouse. I had given Ezra a room there and an office, and he was shocked to find out the house belonged to me and Izzy. I nodded my head. [It’s like kings and princes. You inherit the

  • 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?

    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.

  • 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
