The Luna Prophecy 10. Date
Izzy’s pov"That customer, Tom, can be a bit handsy, but he tips very well." Luke said, pointing to an older gentleman sitting at one of the tables by himself.I wasn’t sure if he was telling me to warn me or just to accept it because of the tip. After working here for a few weeks, it was obvious that Luke ran his business very differently from Erin's.Erin’s motel staff was like her family; she was kind to everyone and really showed that she cared. But Luke ran a business, and although he wasn’t a bad guy, he didn’t really care how any of his staff were doing. He wasn’t asking if you had a good day, like Erin did every time a cleaning lady or someone from the kitchen came over.While I wasn’t exactly looking forward to handling this customer, I decided to suck it up and do my job. In thirty minutes, Orion would be picking me up from work, and we’d go on a date.A date!Although I knew it couldn’t last, that didn’t make me less nervous and excited. Goddess, I had fallen for this man qu
The Luna Prophecy 11. Mind over Matter
Orion’s povThis date has been perfect so far. So perfect that we lost track of time and missed the movie. Izzy suggested watching a movie in her room, and despite the obvious temptation it would be for me, I said yes.I wanted to touch Izzy all the time, wanting to kiss her and more, but we were going slow. Mind over matter, right? She went through a lot, and I was pretty sure she was still a virgin, so rushing things was a bad idea.We packed up the blanket and cutlery, and I drove us back to the motel. My hand was resting on Izzy’s leg, making circles with my fingers. For a moment, Izzy looked sad, and I quickly moved my hand."Are you okay?""He did that too…. He put his hand on my leg while we were driving. But when you do it, it feels so different. I am trying not to think about that day, but my mind keeps going back to it." Izzy replied, fidgeting with her hands."I know you’ve said you don’t want to talk about it, but maybe you should. Not necessarily with me, but with someone.
The Luna Prophecy 12. Mess
Izzy’s povI woke up, not remembering when I fell asleep. It must have been halfway through the movie. Despite liking the movie, Orion’s scent and his arms around me made me a bit too relaxed.Orion! His arms were still around me. He fell asleep here!I turned my head and saw Orion look so peaceful. I can’t imagine anyone being scared of this man. He looked so cute, and he even snorted a little. Goddess, he was adorable. How lucky was I to have someone like him like me?Or unlucky, since I couldn’t keep him. I laughed to myself. Keep him. As if he were a stuffed animal that I could keep in my bed forever."You have such a beautiful smile; I wouldn’t mind waking up to that every day." Orion said, stretching his arms before taking me in his arms and giving me a tight hug."Goodmorning, Orion." I said, hugging him back and feeling slightly embarrassed to feel his morning erection during the hug. That man was big."Goodmorning, beautiful." Orion replied, kissing me on the neck. It must hav
The Luna Prophecy 13. Red
V Izzy’s pov "So, I will do some strength training with you. to get you stronger, but I think taking a few lessons in self defense would be great." Orion explained. "You've never been taught to fight?" I was kind of surprised since in our pack, every man was taught to fight, even the omega males. Women got some training, but not enough, in my opinion. Orion chuckled, "well, that cost money, and Richard didn't want to spend any money on us. I always used my height and strength to frighten people, and the rest was just instinct. But maybe it wouldn’t be so bad to get some training too." "But you don’t want people to start saying stuff about you?" I asked, knowing what people would say if they knew he was learning to fight. "Exactually." Orion replied, but got right back to focusing on me. "So, I was thinking something like Judo or Jujitsu, because it’s mostly self-defense and you learn to get out of grips and how to use someone’s weight against them. It will give you some time to c
The Luna Prophecy 14. Daisies
Orion’s povLife was perfect. I mean, maybe to some, this wasn’t enough, but for me, it was. I went to work with Erin, who seemed to be getting used to the idea of me and Izzy. Then I’d see Izzy and spend the evening with her. We would talk or watch movies; I’d learn her some sign language; we’d make out; or we would read side by side on her bed and then fall asleep in each other’s arms.As much as I wanted to have sex with Izzy, I wasn’t in a hurry. We had time. It was important to me that it would be her choice when we took that next step.And then on the days Izzy and I didn’t have to work, we would train, and after that, we spent the whole day together in the woods. We both seemed to love nature, and an added benefit was that there were no people here to judge us. Not that Izzy was hiding our relationship from anyone.Every time I had the chance to pick her up from work, I did, and she would give me a kiss in front of everyone there. People either thought she was super naive or had
The Luna Prophecy 15. Next Step
Izzy’s povI couldn’t let today end like this. It had been perfect. Orion got me flowers, and he had been so sweet. I didn’t mean to get sad, but every time things were perfect, I wished I could stay here.I was falling hard for Orion, and by this point, my heart was going to break anyway. So why was I holding back? Whenever Orion kissed me, my mind was solely on him. Memories of Jordan would still haunt me, but not when I was with Orion. I could do more with him than kiss, but I was scared that if I did, it would make me fall in love with Orion even more.But seeing him like this made me realize that ship had already sailed. I was in love with Orion, and I don’t think that going to the next level, base, or whatever you call it would make things worse.First base was kissing, second above the waist, and third below, right? I don’t know, but I did know that when we had that shower, I wanted more. His hands on my breasts felt right, and I wanted to touch him too.I kissed Orion with a ne
The Luna Prophecy 16. Pills
Orion’s pov"So, who is that?" Doctor Michael asked. "Do you have a girlfriend, Orion?"I smiled, thinking about Izzy. "Yeah.""I thought we discussed that it was better that you focused on your health first."I sighed. I was just here for the medicine. Doctor Michael had some clear instructions before I left that I didn’t always agree with. The second was to not start dating until a year after I was out of the mental hospital. He would have freaked out if he knew I had taken lower doses because his first rule was to always take my medication as he had instructed me.He had more rules that I felt were just stupid, like how he wanted me to train less. I could run or do cardio, but no strength exercises, and especially not any martial arts. He was scared it would trigger me somehow.I shrugged my shoulders, "she’s been good for me.""I don’t have to tell you what’s at risk, Orion. If you have another psychosis, she could get hurt."‘Don’t trust him,’ the voice said.‘Stop calling me "the
The Luna Prophecy 17. Cards
Izzy’s povAfter the shower, Orion and I ate lunch at the motel and spent the rest of the day together. Tomorrow, we would both have to work.I tried everything to focus on our day, and it had been easy when Orion and I had been busy in my bedroom, but it was becoming harder to ignore the pill in my pocket. It felt like it was burning a hole straight into my leg.The moment I smelled the pills, I recognized part of the smell. And the second the pill touched my palm, it started to burn. It was a light burn at first, but when I let the pill sit there, it began to hurt.I dropped the pill on the floor of Orion’s car and pretended to put it back, instead slipping it back into the borrowed shorts from Orion. After the shower, I quickly got it out, putting it in the first place I could think of: my jean pocket.Over the last few weeks, I had bought some clothes, but my wardrobe was still a lot smaller than it had been at home. Not that it mattered to me; I would trade everything I had back h

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?
