Kari's POVI ran after my brother up the stairs, something was wrong and even Hela was ready to protect her newfound family."Son." Came our father's voice as we went into the Alpha Suite."Where is Ingrid?" He asked."We tried to get you via the link but you blocked us out. She is in labor. Your mother is with her, as is the Queen. We have contacted the Doctor, but he is in surgery and will be here as soon as he can." My brother's face went white and he ran into what I assumed was his room. My father turned to me. "She is only four months old, so it's a little early. But they are twins.""A little early. Five months is a little more than a little early," I declared. My father looked at me a little gone out before something obviously clicked in his head and he gave a little chuckle."Not to a werewolf, my little peppercorn." He said. "I know a human pregnancy is nine months, but a werewolf pregnancy is only five months. But being Alpha-blooded and twins, the pups are a little excited
Kari's POVThe next morning, after the excitement of the twins coming into the world, Olivia came to my suite with Heather and Ericka. She smiled at me as they walked into the room. I could tell Olivia was still a bit worried about how I would react to her. So I smiled and gave her a hug in welcome."Thank you for helping my father through everything," I said. Hela explained the bond to me in a bit more detail to help me understand what my father had gone through. Olivia wrapped her arms around me and hugged me back."I only wish we could have helped you more." She said. "I know I am not your mother, and I would never want you to think I was trying to replace her, but I am here for you if you ever need any motherly advice.""I appreciate that, ma," I said. The look of shock on her face made me smile wider and she hugged me tighter. "Mother or mom, I can't do that, I'd feel like I was betraying her, but if you're happy with ma, then I am happy with it.""Oh sweet child, you don't know
Kari's POVI looked at Gamma Carlton and he smiled at me as the two just stood there staring at each other."You are seeing firsthand how the mate bond works." He said quietly only for me to hear. I smiled and stepped forward."Chloe, this is my brother Magnus." I smiled to her. What she said next shocked us all."You are my beloved?" She said. Gamma Carlton shot his head around so fast I was surprised his neck didn't snap."Beloved?" I asked him."You're Fae?""No, I am the illegitimate daughter of one of Triton's advisors." She muttered, anger flaring. "I am human other than having a few little extra senses. I never thought I would feel the bond though. I'm 27 and never came across them until now.""I always wanted to be a toy boy." Magnus grinned, moving towards her. At least I don't have to pretend to be human."I watched as she beamed and stepped into his arms. After a moment, she pulled away from him a look of something suddenly hitting her. She turned to me."You're a werewolf?
Kari POVI sighed as I looked out of the window of the beautiful castle I was now staying in. We returned that night after my father had shown the King that photo. If I thought the West Nordic Pack was stunning, this castle and its lands hidden in the mountains of Scotland were unbelievable. The gardens were massive and there were flowers I had never seen before. The most beautiful were those deep purple roses that were in the middle of it all. The room I was staying in was exactly how I imagined a fairytale castle looked. The stone walls, the big mahogany wood four-poster bed that I need a step to climb into, and the posts hand carved into an intricate design. There was a fire built directly into the stone walls. it was lit to keep the chill-out. The door was a big heavy oak door with black metal hinges and a ring door handle with a latch.I watched as car after car drove up and my Grandfather welcomed Alpha after Alpha arrived. He said after this weekend, whenever I was here, I woul
Warning Sexual ContentKari's POV.When I saw him, Hela was a mix of anger and need for him. She didn't know what to do with herself, but when she found out it was his Sister, the anger melted away and she wanted him. It was the strangest feeling ever, even though I wanted him so much it hurt. His voice had a direct line to the area between my legs that I was sure was filled with cobwebs.I led him to my room where a warrior stood and I blushed. The Warrior bared his neck to me and said nothing else. I pulled him into my room quickly and banged the door shut. I must look like a tomato. He chuckled and pulled me to him."Get used to it, as my Luna, you will have the same protection detail." He said as his lips met mine. He directed me back against the bed. I fell against the bed with him on top of me. I pulled away and sighed."You OK?" He asked, caressing my cheek. "We can wait, I don't want to rush you.""I... no... I want this...I" He looked at me and smiled."You can tell me anythi
Grant's POVI was woken that evening, from the best sleep I had ever had, by a mind link from my Beta.'Boss.''What?' I responded.'We are five minutes away boss.' He responded. 'We're you sleeping? I also felt a new pack link hit. Your father bringing people in again?''I will explain when you get here. Link Shelby, she will show you to our rooms. I will meet you in the dining room in half an hour'. I yawned and felt my mate shift against my bare chest. I smiled down at the mass of white blonde hair that fell over my chest. I ran my hand through it and she stirred again and I felt her lips on my chest."Mmm, as much as I would love to continue this, my Beta is about to arrive." I kissed the top of her head and she looked up at me with a sleepy smile on her face. "We should shower.""Do you want to get down to see your Beta?" She muttered as she pulled herself up to sit on the edge of the bed. I chuckled as she pulled the sheet around her and ran into the bathroom. I heard the shower
Kari's POVI didn't like his sister, and neither did Hela. I was glad Carl was next to me. I was also impressed that I managed to control Hela as well as I did. I also got the impression the Beta wasn't keen on her either. I was relieved when I found out that Carl would stay with me. I didn't like to admit it, but I had become rather attached to him."How are you feeling?" My mate asked me as he put his arm around me and we waited for his father to appear."Overwhelmed," I said. He rubbed circles on my shoulder with his thumb and it calmed me. Hela was purring in my head. "Hela is like a damn cat.""Zeus isn't much better." He chuckled. "I would love to meet Hela.""Once this weekend is out of the way, we will introduce you to her," I said. There was a knock on the door and my Grandfather stopped his conversation with Carl to open the door. An older version of Grant walked into the room, followed by the willowy short woman and a younger version of Grant walked in. Behind him a very ta
Warning Mature ContentKari's POVAfter I had gotten to know his brother, Beta, and his Beta female better, we had gone to bed and continued where we had left of earlier that day. We fell asleep in a tangle of naked limbs and sheets. His arms wrapped around me holding me to him tightly. We were woken by the sound of the door banging open and a mermaid with legs launching herself on top of the covers in between us. I lifted my head to see my best friend grinning back at me as my mate growled at her."Big day today Kari!" She said when her head shot up and she looked to her right to see Grant scowling at her. "Who are you?"He raised an eyebrow and I chuckled."Grant, this is my boss. Or was my boss, Chloe. She is now mated to Magnus." I said to him as I wrapped a sheet around me and pushed my friend on the floor. "Chloe, get out of the room so me and my mate can get dressed."She sat up and looked at me over the side of the bed. "When the fuck did that happen?""Chloe, I will see you a
Kari's POV 350 Years later. I watched over my brood as the Ceremony for my Great Great Great Grandchild and his new mate was completed. They would be taking over the Kingdom from their Mother and Father soon. It was time. It was time for me to move on to my next task. I have had an enjoyable life, but having lost all those close to me other than my children, I was ready to leave the Earth, and the Moon Goddess was ready for me as well. I felt a gaze on me and saw my eldest looking at me from where I stood on the balcony over the ballroom. He had a look like he knew something was a miss. I smiled at him. My Grand parents had both passed away when I was 150. They had both decided it was time for them to join my mother, and I knew they were happy to be there with them all. My father and my mama passion on when i was 300. and over the next hundred years i slowly lost my siblings, and finally Grant left me not more than a year ago, loosing your mate is horrendous, and it took the support
Kari's POvThe pups were all in bed, although it had taken us ages to get them to sleep, as they were all excited about the fact it was their birthday tomorrow and all their friends and our families would be here to celebrate with them. When they had finally gone to sleep, we left them under the care of Olga, their Nanny, and went down to the ballroom which had been transformed. The room had been split into six, with each of their favourite things decorating the area. Matthew was a fan of all things stars and space, so the wall was covered in glow-in-the-dark stars, and hanging from the ceiling were the planets, the sun and the moon surrounded by strings of lights with stars hanging from them. Julian loved the zoo, so his area had been decorated like a safari where there were cuddly toys of wild animals all over the area and a little petting zoo in the corner where in the morning there would be a number of different pets for the children to hold. We also had someone from the zoo was jo
Kari's POVTwo Years LaterToday was the day I had fought with my Grandfather over this, telling him I was nowhere near ready to take over from him, but he was adamant. He was standing down and I would be taking over. To think, four years ago I had no idea that a supernatural world existed. Now I was about to become the Queen of the Werewolf Kingdom.I stared at the ceiling as I lay in my bed, my husband and mate snoring peacefully beside me, his arm lay across my stomach. I heard him snort and felt him lift his head."Little moon?" He asked sleepily. I turned my head and smiled at him. He yawned and looked at his watch. "Have you slept at all?""No," I sighed."You are going to make one hell of a Queen, my love." He said, not losing eye contact with me. I let out a long breath. "You have a good team behind you."We had decided to take on our own teams, although we would all work together. He would keep Reuben and Magnus and the King's Beta's and Claire and Chloe would be known as the
Grant's POVI held out a hand for Kari to take so I could help her out of the carriage. We had arrived back outside of the palace and were about to return to our guests for our reception. We had spent half an hour touring the town, thousands of wolves had come out to celebrate our wedding and see us as we passed through. I couldn't believe the support we had. I also couldn't believe how my life had turned out. I was now the Alpha of a region of the werewolf Kingdom, and I was the next King. I had never been power hungry like most Alpha's, much to my father's disappointment. I loved my pack and the idea of being the Alpha was close to my heart and I had always wanted to do my best job and protect my pack and be the Alpha they needed. I never in my wildest dreams expected I would one day be running the whole werewolf kingdom. The thing I least expected was that this amazing, beautiful woman would be my mate. The Moon Goddess had sent me a literal Goddess and I owed her my life.As she t
Kari's POV I had a sudden feeling that I was being watched. Opening my eyes, my eyes locked instantly with a pair of bright blue ones, a giggle escaped the owner of those eyes. "Good morning Heather." I smiled at the little munchkin. "Heather." Came Ingrid's voice. "Aunty Kari needs her sleep." "It's OK Ingrid, I'm awake." I chuckled, pulling the little girl into a tight hug, and making her giggle. I tickled her to extract her hysterical laughter. Ingrid smiled at me. "Are you all ready for today?" Ingrid asked as she sat on the bed. "Huh?" I asked, my sleep-addled brain not catching up. Kari snickered in my head. "You're getting married." I looked at her a moment before what she said sunk in. "Oh sugar," I muttered. "How did I forget that? What time is it?" "It's six thirty." Ingrid chuckled. "You have plenty of time. I was going to let you sleep for a few more hours, but apparently, my daughter had other ideas." "It was a lovely way to be woken up. I have missed my little m
Three months Later.Kari's POVI sat on the rocking chair in the nursery feeding our twin daughters, Astra Eliza and Carita Merida. Claire and Chloe were sitting in the other two with their own pups. Claire and Reuben had their little heir, Maximus. He was four weeks older than my twins and Chloe and Magnus had a little girl called Eevi. I was so glad we had all had our pups at the same time, they would be able to grow up together. Joshua was sitting at my feet whilst my other five pups ran around causing havoc, their nannies trying to settle them. Joshua was still my little shadow, but I loved how attached he was to me. He flipped through the book he had in his hands, but I didn't have the heart to tell my youngest boy that it was upside down."Last day before the wedding," Chloe spoke up. I looked from where my girls were greedily attached to a breast each to see Chloe burping Eevi."I'd say it was your last day of being a free woman, but that happened the day he first marked you."
Grant's POV I walked with my mate outside to where the competition was being held on the training grounds. We were directed into a tent where her grandparents stood. Queen Merida smiled as we entered and came over to us. There was an Omega behind her wearing the Royal Colours and holding a cushion with a silver Tiara with emeralds dotted over it. I looked at my Princess and chuckled. Her Grandmother knew her very well. 'What are you chuckling at?' Kari asked over mindlink. 'You forgot something...Again.' She looked at me and frowned as Merida arrived next to us. "She is becoming quite predictable, I see Queen Merida." I said, nodding to the Tiara. Merida grinned. "Oh Damn it." Kari muttered beside me. "I am so not used to wearing one. Merida laughed as she placed the Tiara on her granddaughter's head. "You will get used to it in time, my child, it is all still quite new to you." "Your Grandmother was just the same as you when I found her." The King said, kissing his mate on the
Kari's POV "Are you sure about this?" Shelby asked. I looked at her from my closet where I was looking for a dress for her, she was standing looking at her shoes and wringing her hands together. "About what?" I asked her. "Me sitting with you all in the Royal box? I am not Royalty." She murmured. "Shelby, you have proved to us that you are doing better. Remember, you can't lie to me and Grant, our wolves can pick up on a lie. Everything you told us is the truth. We really are proud of you." I told her, handing her a deep green dress that had ruffled sleeves and a squared top to it. "Here, try this on." She took the dress. "It is stunning." She said, taking it into the bathroom to try on. 'Mary-beth?' I mind-linked the head Omega for the Palace. 'Luna Princess, is everything OK?' She asked nervously. 'Oh yes, everything is fine, don't worry. I was just wondering where young Florence was.' I asked her. 'Do you need her today?' 'She is just finishing up the guest rooms with Julia
Grant's POVToday was the festival, today 100 warriors would be chosen from over 2000 who had entered to become part of Kari's Royal Guard. The final man standing would become the head of the of the Princess's guard, as long as he or she passes the loyalty test that Zeus will give them, I yawned and turned to find a mass of blonde hair spread out over the pillow, he soft white skin of her back showed slightly between where her hair ended and the sheet started. Smiling I moved her hair out of the way so I could watch her beautiful face whilst she slept. She was gorgeous, I can't believe she was nearly taken from me, the loss of the bond had been heartbreaking, until we had mated again, it felt like a big part of my heart was missing. I felt someone pushing on the mindlink and let them in.'Alpha?' Came my sisters voice.'Shelby.' I responded.'Can I speak to you?' She asked. She had fought when her punishment had first been given to her, but both she and Julia had started to cakm down
