2022-01-23 08:37:59“The water comes from the mountains at the pack borders. Its mostly snow and glacial, so that’s why it has that color.” Olina says as I step away from her and really take in the area.
“Its breathtaking.”
“I know. It’s my favorite spot. I actually lied, this isn’t a popular swimming area. It’s mostly my swim area, Quai and I used to come here but always had to leave at dark because my mom didn’t like the idea of swimming in the dark. So he installed these lights forever ago so we could stay later sometimes.”
I turned around and saw a small smile on her face and her gaze was fixed on the water as the memory played out in her mind.
“Who is Quai?” I asked. The name played over in my mind, bringing out feelings of calm and happy, yet I couldn’t place why I recognized it.
She heaved a deep breath and walked over to a flat rock near the waterfall.
“Quai

My smile falls and my laugh cuts off. Holy shit, I had missed that.“That’s why he left.” I say as my jaw drops open.“Yeah. He was placed in the pack with me. He wasn’t a member either originally. We are both from the Royal Pack. He was my Guardian.”“Damn I missed that…”“Yeah, you were supposed to though. He was real careful, we both were.”“That’s why you’ve always been close.”“One of the reasons, yeah. I mean we absolutely did not know we were true mates till the full moon. But we were close friends as kids as you know. And then since he turned 18 he said that hes felt a strange draw to me. And he suspected when Syn rejected me, that I Was his mate. He was right… in a way.”“Well I couldn’t be happier about that!

{ Quai }‘She is with the princess and inside the borders.’I release the breath I had basically been holding the whole fucking day knowing she was traveling unaccompanied.‘Thank you Jo, you are relieved of duty, go home to your family’He thanks me and I shut off the mind link. It was now 9pm and I had 3 hours to waste. Oly had offered for me to meet her before midnight but I couldn’t. I knew I had limited control and I wouldn’t be able to stop from touching her. This was it. And when I saw her, I wanted her in my arms.“Ready?” I turn around and see Ryn there stretching out his arms“Yeah.” I nodded and walked to meet him in the sparring circle.“Olina mind linked me again, you are sure you don’t want her to bring her by before hand? I have to ask, or she will figu

“We are all, so grateful you are here, Lana. Finally. We’ve waited a long time for this day, some of us longer than others. But we couldn’t be happier that the Moon Goddess bound you and Quai together. And I mean that from the bottom of my heart.” my mom tells her and I see Lana swell up with happy tears too.“I want to give you guys space, if that’s what you want. Before we leave though, is there anything you want to ask? Because as of now, you officially know everything. We have nothing else we are keeping from you.” I tell her as I step over in front of them.“You’ve all known, for 9 years?” she asks looking around.“16 years. When we brought Olina to your pack and chose your parents to take her in. Quai was there. He was 5, you were 2.” my father says.“Whoa.” her eyes are wide but she doesn’t look upset abo

“Alright spill.”She raises her eyebrows, challenging me. “I have no idea what you’re talking about.”“Thats probably true, because you may be my best friend and sister, but I draw the line at any information regarding sex with my brother. Which is a very strange sentence now that I say it outloud, but hey! You really are my sister now!”She blushes, hard core as I mention her sex life but then her whole face lights up at my revelation.“You’re right!” She jumps up and comes around the counter to find me and hug me. As she leans in I see her mark on her neck and I silently say a praise to the Goddess while she hugs me. It truly was over.“I couldn’t be happier you are here Lan. I’ll probably be saying it for weeks.”“I couldn’t either. I need to call dad though.&rd

It’s been a week since Lana arrived now and I wish I could say her first week was full of nothing but settling in and getting to know her new pack and our family getting to know her more, but that would be a lie.Since the day the boys shared with us the issues between the Water Rock and Brook Hole packs, things have only gotten more tense. As expected, Water Rock did nothing to initiate a fight. Once we reached out to them, we got their side of the story and it wasn’t a surprise. They had been the ones to reach out to my dad about the issues because they were finding Brook Hole warriors trying to infiltrate their borders. The last attempt had included an attack on a Water Rock patrol and that was when they reached out to us. The current laws says packs should attempt to solve disputes between them, and then if not possible, before turning to violence they must reach out to the King to attempt to settle the dispute with mediation.

“Are you ok, love?” Ryn asks as he turns me around his arms and rubs his thumb over my cheek.“I’m fine, really. Thanks to you. And Quai. I just don’t understand why he is here.”“What do you mean? He is here to speak with your dad.”“Yeah… why? Where is his father? He can’t come and negotiate anything with my father, unless-”“Oh shit.” Ryn says as he runs his hand through his hair.Only the Alpha of a pack can request an audience with the King. Only the Alpha can negotiate an alliance or breaking an alliance with another pack. An issue like whats going on has to be dealt with by the head of the packs. So if Syn was able to request a hearing with the King, it means that he is the Alpha. Which means he gained his title before he was supposed to, and it means he did it without my father’s ap

I’m not sure who I was expecting to walk through that door, who I imagined the clutch person was that the King went to in situations like this would be. But it certainly was not the Queen, my mate, and my future Queen.The three women walked in, heads high and smiles on their faces. In their hands they each had a cup of coffee and paperwork. I noticed Olina’s hair was on the top of her head in a messy bun, a signature look that she sported when she was busy working through an issue.“Hey,” I softly said to her as she came up to me and gave me a small kiss.“Hi handsome.”I hear the other two women greet their mates and I find a seat finally. I hadn’t sat down since Syn arrived, unable to calm myself enough to sit still. But not I had a reason to sit since I had the perfect thing to fill my lap with.I sank down into the chair and pulled her down to sit

{ Olina }I’m slack against Ryn’s chest as I try to catch my breathe. Our little sexcapade session was fast and hot and my heart was racing at an inhumane speed.“So baby,” my ears perk up at the tone he has so I raise my head and look at him. Sure enough, his face shows that he is trying to bring something up that he isn’t sure about. “When do you wan-”His eyes glaze over and his demeanor changes instantly. All his muscles tense up and I can practically feel his anger.“I fucking knew it!” he growls out in a terrifying tone. He gently lifts me and puts me on the floor, kisses my forehead and then sprints to the bedroom.What the hell…“Ryn what is happening?” I yell as I run to the bedroom after him, only to find he is already fully dressed and slipping on his boots.

We all look to my dad in confusion and he repeats himself, this time I don’t miss the tone that slips into his words. It was one I recognized from when we were younger and he thought we were lying to him about something.“Olina, what new disadvantage are you at?”I glance at my mother and her eyes shift from calm to suspicious and meet mine as well. Shit, we haven’t told them yet. I find my mate’s eyes and he nods his head towards them with a small smile on his face. He leans over and whispers in my ear.“I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to, but its a good time to tell them”“Easy for you to say” I whisper back. He kissed my cheek and then helps me to my feet. I walk over to where Dad’s bed is and lean against it, arms length from them. I don’t say anything though. I just place my hand on my stomach protectively, and glance down at it. They follow my movements.“Inopportune timing, huh?” I ask with a small laugh, unable to hold back my smile though. I meet their eyes and see my mother’s hand

“That makes more sense.”I turn and see Quai resting on his elbows watching us and listening. I rush over to give him a hug and he returns it.“That explains everything.” Ryn says, reiterating what Quai said. “Especially about the witch’s origins, how this began, and why they are after your father and brother.”“They are basing all of this on the fact that they don’t believe you can be Queen though? I mean that seems like a lot to leave up to chance, I’d bet they are going to kill you too.” A growl erupts behind me while Quai is talking and I just roll my eyes.“Like hell..” Ryn mutters.“You know what I mean,”Quai defends as he lays back down.Ryn stands up and walks over to me. I have to lean back to be able to look into his eyes. He hovers over me, his eyes moving from my eyes to my mouth to my chest to my nose to my lips again. His gaze alone is enough to make my skin burn and my chest pound.“So, mate, what is our next move?”“We set a trap.” I say quietly and he smirks, knowing

{ Ryn }I press my lips to her forehead and try to pry myself away from her but I can’t resist. It’s felt like ages since I’ve touched her and my entire body feels rejuvenated just from this simple contact so I lean down and press my lips to her, feels that release that she always gives me. My stress levels decrease, my brain clears. And I pull away before turning and running out the door.She is here. She is safe. She is here. And She is safe. I repeat this to myself and my wolf as I shift and head to the front line.They are safe.My wolf gently reminds me of the weight on my heart. I wasn’t trying to forget it, but it was so new that it still slips my mind. The doctors came in after they got her settled into the bed, attended to and ran her blood work and tests. They seemed to have assumed I didn’t know. They were right.I was leading a war right now, commanding thousands of soldiers and fighting along side them everyday. I had more blood on my hands than I’d care to reflect on. Bu

A soft beeping echoed through my ears when I finally woke up. I wasn’t sure how I knew, but I knew I’d been asleep for a long time. It was the most rested I had felt in weeks. I took in a deep breathe, and tears filled my eyes when his scent hit me. It washed over me, calming me yet also exciting me. My skin burns from not having contact with him for a few days now. Just before my eyes open, a feel sparks erupt on my hand and more tears come.“I know you are awake, Oly.” his voice is soft, but edgy. I know instantly, I’m not forgiven.I force my eyes open finally and he comes into view. His hair is a mess, but his shirt and pants are clean for the first time since the war started. He clearly hasn’t been at the front line today and that brings up a heap load of guilt. I had gotten information, good information, I knew what this war was about. But in the process I had gotten injured, I had done what I’d swore I wouldn’t do…. distract him.“I don’t suppose saying I’m sorry would mean muc

{ Ryn }“Commander”“Yes?”“The newest platoon has arrived at the south base.”“Good, have them switch out with the 304th and send them back to main pack lands for rest and recouping. Please advise the medical crew of more wounded wolves coming in as well.”“Right away.”I crack my neck as another division leader leaves my tent. My joints are stiff and achy from being in wolf form and sleeping on the ground if I’m sleeping at all. Physically I could still carry a train, but it was beginning to wear on me bit by bit. Thankfully my brain was still sharp as a whip and I was seeing the light at the end of the tunnel with this war if I could get us through the messiest part we were in now.“Anything?”Quai steps into the tent, covered in dried blood and in just shorts like I am. We have been more wolf than man since the war started and uniforms aren’t exactly practical in a werewolf war.“Yeah, the new platoon just arrived.”“Good, news from the castle?”“Nothing today, no.”He nods and th

“With a date.”“What?”I look at him confused and he just smirks that stupid smirk I used to hate.“Preston what the fuck does that mean?”“It means, that place is a stronghold. The only way in, is if you work there, or are going to a bedroom there.”Oh. Well, I’d already mentally prepared for the possibility of flirting my way in. But he had opened up another one.“Do you know anyone who works there and doesn’t hate you?”He looked offended but responded.“Yeah, I know a girl.”“Would she help us?”“I mean, we aren’t close. More like booty call buddies.”“That’s perfect!” I shout out and I can tell that amuses him.“Thanks, I’m pretty happy about it too, she is great.”“No not that part, but you could call her! And if she is here, with you, not in my bed, but here and she needs to take off say, her uniform, then I could borrow it.”“There are so many ways that is messed up.”“Oh please, help me. The hardest thing you have to do is screw a girl you regularly screw.”Again, that same o

He passed by the door and went straight into my bedroom. Was he the one sleeping here?My mind flashed back to the memory of the day we got the call from Carlisle, the mediation call that turned out to be a distraction. Carlisle had claimed to be the Beta. But was that true? If Preston was sleeping here, then it was definitely true. The Beta would be in the packhouse. Especially with an Alpha like Syn. They demand to know where their Beta is, because they don’t trust anyone, even them.He throws himself down on the bed, my bed, and I see his chest heave a few times. He hasn’t scented that I’m here. I mean to be fair, I barely have a scent, but he definitely was living here considering how comfortable he was and trusting he was alone without searching the house. I watched him through the crack of the door, unsure what to do. I decided that I would at least need to wait till he went to sleep but that could have been hours away. Unfortunately, I didn’t get the chance.He stood back up an

I straightened up and fumbled my jacket like I was trying to fix it and had just dropped something.The woman, who looked about 5 years older than myself, walked up and greeted me.“Hey, are you alright?” She looked me up and down. I had made sure to change into normal clothes. I Was rocking a hoodie and jeans with vans sneakers. I looked like a regular teenager from this pack.“Yes, I was just… there was this guy that I didn’t want to run into” I tell her, lowering my voice.She lets out a laugh, a good one.“Oh, gotcha, been there. Need a hand getting by him?”“Actually, that would be awesome.”“Where are you headed?”“Not that way,” I joke as I throw my head back the way I came and she laughs again before nodding.

I slipped out the door once I was dressed and nodded hello to the warrior stationed just a few feet from our cabin. Ever since things escalated, WAryn insisted, as did my father.The warrior nodded back and then followed at a distance as I made my way to the castle. Once I was at the entrance I turned and did a once over of the training fields. Some of them were still in fact training fields as training continues despite a war. But two of the fields were no covered in white medical tents for the wounded as they recover. There were two more tents just like this at the EAst and South holdings. They made my heart ache.On my way to the library entrance, I passed by Lana. She waved me over as she was discussing something with one of the kitchen staff.“Hi darling, how are things?” she asked, her words diving deeper than they seemed.“Restless at the East I guess, gone before sunrise.&rd
