After Magda's outburst, I don't see her for the rest of the day.

I help Perpetua in the kitchen and around the house. And in the afternoon, we head to her plot to tend the vegetables. It becomes more evident that I am a city person. Perpetua and Elena poke fun at my clumsiness and tease me with my soft, groomed hands. "You come from a rich family, Saray, sure you do," Elena smiles at me. "When you get your memory back and are in your beautiful home, will you still think back to us?" she questions childishly.

I smile at her.

"I can't do otherwise. You saved me. What would I've done if you hadn't found me? Obviously, I can't grow vegetables or take care of chickens," I say, ashamed. The two women won't recover with laughter, clutching a tree to stay upright. "I think you work with the computer and in a posh office with air conditioning. Watch you sweat when the sun is now at its lowest point," Elena points to my wet sweater.

    The following day I got up early.I couldn't get a wink of sleep last night, the day couldn't come soon enough for me. My deal with Peter haunts my mind, a fire burns in me, I want to prove to my new friend that I am not that fragile, good-for-nothing city woman. Something inside me drives me to take on this competition, I'm so sure I will beat both men. I don't know what it is, but my senses are running full speed, I'm in for the hunt. Standing outside the house, I see Perpetua already stirring a pot.By the looks of it, everyone here gets up very early and there is always something to do. "Saray," my hostess calls to me, all smiles. "Peter has already heated the water for you to bathe. He is very cheerful today, wringing his hands and muttering something over a bet he made with you." Questioningly, she nods at me. "Yep. He cleans up the whole catch if I bring more prey than him. I'm going hunting with him, you haven't forgotten," I tell her proudly. Her

    The face of each family member is worth a fortune.Except for Elena's, of course, my little friend joins me as we grin and watch the men clean the meat. Perpetua is like a fish on dry land, her mouth falling open repeatedly as she watches the sour-looking men working on the catch. Suddenly I feel someone next to me and when I look up, I see Magda standing to my great surprise.The hostility is mainly gone, although her eyes still betray her vigilance. "Tell me, Saray, how did you manage this? Neither of them has ever brought home this much," Magda whispers to me. "What's your trick? I want to beat them too, I never succeeded before so I gave up". Her changed attitude puts me on alert, I definitely don't trust her yet. "No trick, just entered into an honest deal," I tell her briefly. But she shakes her head incredulously. "Nope. There's something you must have done to get that many beasts together. Peter even noted that you didn't even use the shotgun. So

    Enthusiastically, I stroll behind the men to the beach.We have everything with us; lots of meat, camping chairs and a plaid. The night is balmy; a gentle breeze is going on, and the leaves on the trees rustle as we walk by. The men start the campfire when we finally arrive at the seashore. Perpetua and I spread the plaid on the sand to sit on it. Elena and Magda wash their feet in the water while singing an unfamiliar tune. We watch as the men light the fire and hang the meat over it.Soon there is a mouthwatering smell and my eyes begin to glisten at the idea of burying my teeth in a large piece soon. Beside me, I hear Perpetua laughing and I turn to her. "You're always hungry. How do you manage to stay this slim?" she laughs. I shrug. "Hard to say. I've only known myself for three days," I reply dryly. We laugh at my comment and then lie down on our backs. And then I see it.The Full Moon. Right above me, as if it were aimed at me. I win

    I hesitate but ultimately extend my hand to the stranger.He grasps it firmly and with a jerk, I am in his arms. He hugs me tightly, his warmth flowing over to me. It feels good in his arms, I feel like I've been there many times. Slowly I put my arms around his waist and hugged him back. "Baby, the days were like hell. We searched the whole area and couldn't find you," he murmurs with relief. "That day, we got thrown off the boat and ended up in the high waves. I tried to swim back to the yacht to get you, but the waves took me further away. Those were the worst days of my life. Thank the Moon Goddess for this new chance with you," he stammers emotionally. "Ralph," I whisper in his ear now. "I am suffering from amnesia. I cannot remember my past, my mind is blank". The man stiffens and detaches himself from me. His eyes skim my face. "Rain! What are you saying now? Memory loss? How can that be?" he asks, bewildered. I nod. "I only remember from the mome

    It's hard.Saying goodbye to people who had so warmly accepted you into their family is really not easy.In the past few days I have forged a close bond with Peter, Perpetua treated me like her best friend, and Elena looked up to me so much. And Esau trusted me enough to know his family was safe around me. I am sure I will miss them wherever my journey takes me. "Canada," Ralph informed me briefly when I asked where we were going next.He had told me earlier that we were on our way to his hometown in Canada with his new yacht. And from the looks of it, his plans haven't changed. I hug each one of the family, maybe Peter a little longer. I can safely call him my friend, more than the others, he went out of his way to make me feel at home in his family. "As promised, I won't forget you. As soon as I'm settled, you'll hear from me again," I promise them. Ralph helped me board, and once we were in the speed boat, we had to wait for Esis.This

    You Are The Queen After a drive of about an hour into the night, we arrive at a huge yacht, brightly lighted.There is a logo on the hull and several men in uniform and dark glasses are waiting. In the distance, I can hear engines, more speedboats are approaching. "Ralph, what is this? Who are all these people?" I ask somewhat anxiously. It looks like a war is going on at sea. Ralph nudges me closer to him, and believe me, with the few clothes on my body, his warmth comes in very handy. It seems he and Esis don't feel the icy chill of the wind. "Those are the security guards, my love," he answers. He takes me by the shoulders and looks at me. "There is something else I must tell you, Rain. I am a Lycan and live in the Kingdom. In the palace". He scours my face for a response. Sensing that his words do not impress me, he continues. "I am the King of the Royal Werewolf Kingdom. And you will be the Queen". My eyes go big.

    To blow off some steam, I decide to attend today's pack training.It has been a long since I last challenged my warriors, it is time for me to demonstrate my strength and authority in the pack again. Quickly I go to my apartment and dress in sportswear. As I walk onto the training ground, everyone stops what they are doing. Training today is coordinated by the former Beta Kenston, Rain's father. I walk up to the man and extend a hand to him. "Father, give me your fiercest group. I'm ready for a solid fight. Your top three, please," I ask him after a handshake. He shakes his head; Kenston has often told me just to call him by his name. As the Alpha, I am superior to him and calling him Father suggests he has some authority in the pack. But I insist on giving my father-in-law the respect he deserves; if he had not blessed this earth with such a wonderful daughter, I would not have such an outstanding mate today.

Jasper and Rain have their hands together honorably, while Jace and Cleo follow suit. "You guys wonder why I summoned you to face me," she begins sarcastically. No one answers for fear of getting her wrath on them. "We'll start with Eric," she states and turns to the man. "What is your confession, Secretary? I've watched your missteps for too long". Eric has no choice but to tell his sins, the reason he had Natalie killed, his rejection of his fated and accepting a second chance, and the selfish reason he marked Rachel. A sigh of disbelief passes through those present. Selene now turns to Ralph."Ralph, I gave you the Kingdom despite you not being the rightful heir," she starts.

  • The Rejected Full Moon   Not My Fault

    King Ralph's POV I keep a low profile.I still can't believe this happened to me. Never did I think of cheating on Saray, there was no woman attractive enough in my eyes to share the bed with. Saray is everything to me, for months I have waited for the moment of our physical love. Even now I get all kinds of visions of how that will all come about, the way I'll drive her crazy between under me. We were supposed to make arrangements the day after her coronation and I knew that night she would be mine. But she went into labor and that Jasper treated me like nothing. He made sure everyone around was aware that the pups were his, was unwilling to share the moment of their birth with me and just forced me into the background of it all. I stood in the maternity room against the wall as if I didn't belong there. No one involved me in the birth of the Crown Princes. The pain went deep, the Moon Goddess indicated to everyone that I would never have

    King Jasper's POVRain is still asleep after our night full of passion. I smile as I look at her, my mate, my heart.She's insecure about her figure that just can't get rid of that baby fat. But she doesn't know how sexy she looks now with her full hips. I hope from tonight she won't worry about that. My lips graced her and gave her everything she craved. I showed her how she could excite me with the slightest touch. She is now the mother of my pups and that makes her that much more special in my life. The boys are amazing, the youngest has his mother's raven black hair, while the oldest oddly has inherited my brown-blonde locks. But the difference stops there, as far as their facial features are concerned, they are identical. My spitting image. Slowly I detach myself from Rain's embrace.I grab my sweater from the floor and put it against her face so my scent stays around her. Standing next to the bed, I put my jeans back on and go into the walk-in clos

    Queen Rain's POV We sit in the Palace garden with our pups, enjoying the nice weather. The boys are growing steadily, it always amazes me when I consider that they are only two weeks old. But they act like two-month-old babies, already smiling broadly and playing with the music boxes hanging above their crib. And they are definitely bigger than the children their age I see on the Internet. At first, I thought it was because of their feeding and wanted only to breastfeed them, no extras. But Jasper explained to me that Lycan pups have faster development than humans or normal werewolves. Anyway, I am proud of my sons, they are healthy and growing like cabbage. Jasper sits next to me with the eldest in his arms. The young man adores his father, sensing Jasper close by is enough for him to stretch his arms out and babble a lot. Fortunately, Jasper makes lots of time to be with them. And then there is the rest of the family, who spoil both boys beyond measure. With so many grandparents,
