I couldn’t believe that I had found Murdina. Although I had made the mistake of assuming that she would remember who I was. I had no doubt it was her, but now I needed to figure out how to get her to remember. “She is lucky not to remember, she has been in almost every life with you and if she were to remember, it could break her mind. You need to be careful how you approach this.” Daciana informed me. “She is a witch. She is a lot stronger than you give her credit for, wolf.” Zemira snapped. “You need to concentrate.” Mila scolded me. “Sorry.” Okay, you see that bench over there?” “Yes.” “I want you to focus on calling up the wind and pushing it over.” “That’s the only pointer you have?” I frowned at her, and she laughed. “Magic works different for each of us and what helps me control mine might not work for you. Think about your witch spirit's personality. What do you think her triggers are?” Mila suggested. “I don’t know. I just met her and up until a month or so ago, she
It was cowardly of me to leave like I did, but things had just seemed to settle. I was no longer waiting to be executed, the Shadow Moon Pack wasn't a threat at the moment and Anders and I were finally together. Sure, we still had the upcoming war and had to find Una and Murdina, but at least it was something that we had a plan for. This. I had no plan for. Now Omen had the audacity to waltz in and destroy the moment of peace I had found since the day my parents were killed and drop yet another bombshell. How else was I supposed to react? How could that even be possible? If my mother was Queen, why didn't she tell me? Why would she have run away with my father? They could have lived with her coven. I entered the pack kitchen, which was busy as omegas ran about cooking meals and preparing for the day. I grabbed a cup of coffee and sat on the counter, digesting what I had just been told. Anders walked into the kitchen as he scanned the room, his eyes settled on me. He walked up and
My jaw clenched when Olympia entered the kitchen, and she launched herself at me kissing me. Before I could react, Isla had pulled her off of me with a growl and had her pinned to the floor by her neck.“STAY THE HELL OFF MY MATE.” She growled, her fierceness causing my body to react.“I love cat fights.” Alec smiled, enjoying himself as Thane and I frowned.Olympia's eyes widened in surprise, then narrowed as she moved, flipping Isla onto her back and punched Isla in the face. Anger rose, and I wanted to have her punished, but I knew I had to let her handle this on her own. She was Luna, and they needed to learn to respect her.Isla kicked Olympia off of her and sent her flying as she jumped up to her feet and got in a fighting stance. Olympia charged at her, but Isla dodged, kicking her in the stomach. Olympia grabbed a knife from the counter and lunged at her again.“Are you going to stop this or stand there getting a woody?” Vilkas hissed angrily.“I can’t and you know why. If I i
The room emptied. Isla walked over, “Thank you. I wasn’t expecting to be bombarded.”“You are their goddess's daughter; understandable, they would be a bit star struck.” Omen commented.With the room emptied, Anders and I sat in our chairs as everyone else grabbed a chair to join us at our table.This situation made me uncomfortable. Was I supposed to say something? I have never been around large groups, or the center of one.“I’ll get right to the point. Your mother was the blood heir to our throne. When she left, her husband took over and attempted to track her down but was unable to.” Omen shared.“Her husband? My mother never said she was married before she met my dad and she told me that witches, and especially covens, would hunt us down and kill us.” Isla defended.“Our former King was quite ticked when she disappeared, and spent years looking for her before telling us that she had perished at the hands of the Blood Moon Pack. To my knowledge, he just wanted his wife back. Did s
“Luckily, I am ahead for the winter preparations so leaving for a month won’t cause too much trouble. Thane, would you mind taking over the remaining preparations and Alec, I will need you to work on strengthening the security from any threats Zeeb may come up with.” “I will do as you ask as well as work on training the army and sending letters to the neighbouring packs, we may need to build our forces. Who knows what Zeeb may plan?” Thane replied. “I will send my spies to find his location and any other information they can find.” Alec added. “Thank you for helping. I would like to meet my mother's coven and get some control over my abilities.” Isla smiled. “We can’t have our Luna be killed because your spirits hate each other, we need you and if the coven can help you, it’s important that you go.” Thane reassured her. “Yeah, Anders would be a miserable fuck without you.” Alec laughed when Anders glared at him. “Maybe, but I’m sure Olympia would keep him company.” She frowned. “
The next morning, we got up early; I went for a quick shower, stepping out from the water I wrapped a towel around me as Anders walked into, he bathroom.“Still mad at me, or are you going to join me?” He asked with a smirk.“Join him, you know you want to.” Daciana Purred, “Look at our sexy mate.” He was naked from the waist up; I had to tear my eyes away from his muscled chest. I looked at his face and almost caved when his piercing blue-grey eyes met mine.“He was kissed by another woman right in front of you, don’t you dare cave.” Zemira snapped, as Daciana growled.“Still mad, I muttered as I walked past him, letting my towel fall as I left the bathroom.” I heard him growl in frustration before the shower turned on again.“Good work, make him regret pissing you off.” Zemira cheered.Laughing, I walked into the closet and, finding a low-cut tank top and jean shorts, I put them on and double checked my luggage to make sure I had everything.Anders walked out of the bathroom and he
Isla rested her head on my shoulder as she slept. The car ride was taking longer than expected, but I also knew when magic was being used, they were making me think it was farther than it was because they didn’t trust me. “Do you plan on using your magic to manipulate us the whole time?” I asked Omen, annoyed. “Picked up on that, did you?” he chuckled. “Kind of hard to miss.” I stated angrily. “We mean no offence our cars are enchanted to do this, so if we are traveling with strangers they can’t remember turns or travel time, it is a way we use, to protect our kind, unlike wolves we don’t have teeth or claws." “He makes a good point, beside this also means Isla will be safe from Zeeb and his men.” Vilkas, my wolf agreed. I looked at Isla and brushed her long, black hair away from her face as she slept. I couldn’t believe that a mission with my father had warped so drastically. Now hybrids were safe, and I could be with my mate, yet we still had so much we had to deal with. “We w
I wasn’t even inside the room yet, and I could smell my mother's scent. Gods, How I missed her. I looked up at Anders, “I miss her.” He nodded, and I released the doorknob as he pulled me into a hug. “Come on.” I smiled as I pulled away, wiping the tears from my face. I opened the door and entered my mother's old quarters. Anders looked around the space, “Wow.” “This is so, my mom.” I grinned at him as I looked at the gothic styled room. Red and black bedding on a large canopy bed with black dressers and a mirror. In the corner was a red couch and chair and a black coffee table. Skulls and symbols decorated the walls and shelves. A larger bookshelf stood beside the sitting area filled with books on myths, legends, romance, and the occult. I walked over to a door and opened it, inside was a large bathroom with a clawfoot bathtub, black and white counters, and a walking shower on the far wall. I walked out of the bathroom and opened another door, inside was a small office with the
