This is it.
This is the end of Solaris' Reign and her story.
I hope you all enjoyed and I'm so thankful for all of you who have stuck by over...really...these past twelve months. It's been crazy from illness, to being in the hospital, to having a baby, to still being really sick and him being sick. Then my daughter starting school. It has been a ride. Now having two kids, working through they very different personalities and being in a very different place from when we had her to where my husband and I are now.
I'm lucky enough right now to do what I love. Writing is a passion for me. It's a love every since I was in middle school and I did go to college for creative writing as well. Does that make writing easier? Absolutely not. Does it make me faster? Absolutely not. But it does help me to craft better stories.
One thing though is that I will NEVER abandon a book. I may take my time, I may rewrite or fix, but I will never abandon. I love writing and sometimes I wish I could just be a robot and write easily and do it within a month for every story...it's just not the case. My goal with every book is to write something that I can go back and read myself multiple times, to love the characters again, to fall into the world every single time I read it. If I can't even do that for me, why should I expect any of you to enjoy what I have created either? I shouldn't and I will never compromise who I am as an artist and writer to do that. Even if it means, it takes me some time.
I know I get the frustrated/angry comments of when am I going to finish any of my books and honestly, I feel the same frustration. But I also thank those people. Because it means they care enough about my stories to get angry or frustrated that I haven't finished. That means the world to me. So, I see all of you in the comments. I see you and I know and I am doing my best to work on a world and a story within that world that I can be proud of and you can enjoy!
<3 Again, I thank you for reading this far. I thank you for your time and your tears. ;) Book 2 and the story of Nate as he goes on the journey to follow in Solaris' footsteps to become a Rogue King himself will probably start early next year. I know, its a ways away BUT its because I have two other exclusive projects that are pending as well as handling the beast that is The King's Alpha.
Thank you. <3 You meant the world.MishanAngel
I cracked my neck and took a drink of the energy drink I grabbed at the gas station. Honestly, these pack trips were getting old. I knew they wanted to throw their unmated females at me but having to leave my pack territory for more than a month was just ridiculous. Four weeks since I had been back in my own territory and I missed home. I was also still a good four hours away. My Gamma Sam was now calling me non-stop for the past week. Normally, I left Nate in charge as my Beta but he had been MIA for the past week. Sam stepped up but had zero confidence in himself. Nate disappeared every so often but not when I was off the territory. He would at least wait until I got back before skipping out for a week or two but him being gone a week was worrying. Pinching the bridge of my nose, I took a deep breath. I had four hours. Four hours of peace before I was bombarded with a frantic Gamma, a missing Beta, and the mountain of paperwork I was sure was sitting on my desk. Being Alpha was not
My eyes turned to look at the woman, naked, on my bed. She was sprawled out on top of the sheets. I had to keep my anger locked in. Eros was chomping at the bit in my head, wanting to tear this womanâs head off for defiling out space. We didnât have women in this room. There was a room two doors down that if we did need to let out some aggression and pent up sexual frustration, it was there. This room was for me and my mate.âI will ask you only once, nicely, get the fuck out of my room, Veronica.â My voice was low and even.âBut Alpha, I know you must be tired and I can help alleviate any stress that might haveâŚâEros took over and growled loudly. Veronica's eyes widened and she quickly slipped off the bed. I moved to the side, so she could open the door and Eros watched as she went.âDonât fucking come back here, woman. Otherwise you will find yourself spending the night with the rogues in the dungeon.âSlamming the door shut behind her, I grumbled my way into the bathroom. In my an
I pulled up my truck into the parking lot in front of the bar. It was mostly empty save for a large delivery truck. The whole place looked like it had been taken out of some fantasy novel. Even the name The Wayward Tap, sounded like a tavern. Sam had been sitting quietly in the passenger seat afraid to say anything after I blew up yesterday. After sleeping on it, I tried to apologize to Nate but he said he wonât take an apology when I didnât mean it. It led to another heated argument. Well, led to me blowing up in his face and him taking it with a bored expression on his face. I wondered if I was going to need to request for him to step down. That was the last thing I wanted but it was getting ridiculous. âUmâŚAlphaâŚâ I turned off the engine and got out. There were two guys unloading a truck in the parking lot. They both were huge, the smaller of the two maybe a couple inches shorter than I was. I wondered if they had some Alpha in them. Taking a breath, I strode up to them. The smal
*** Solaris POV *** The truck peeled out of our parking lot and I burst out laughing. Noah rolled his eyes and walked over to the truck, hopping in with Finn to finish the unloading. Charles Pierce, the chief of police, was supposed to check over the security system and the emergency system. He just happened to show up at the right time. âWhat the hell was that?â Charles turned to me while I wiped a tear from my eye. âI have no idea but I didnât think it would be THAT easy to push his buttons. Goddess, that was hilarious.â Charles shook his head. âIâm going to have to write this up. Did you want to press charges Miss Ulrich?â I shook my head. âNo, no. While it would be funny to watch an Alpha like him go through the process of a human court, I wouldnât put the humans through that.â He chuckled. âYouâre probably right. I donât think Iâve ever seen him lose control like that though. Iâve know him for years.â My smile fell for a moment. âHe used to be a lot of things. Now, heâs jus
Surprisingly, the weekend had gone by fairly drama free. There was an issue on Saturday with some teenager wolves trying to sneak their asses into the bar with some fake IDâs. They were well done, except for the fact that they were stickers on top of their real licenses. It was comical. Luckily, I didnât need to call Silas out to pick them up. Beta Nate took care of the issue and took them home in his Jeep. I inwardly cringed at the thought of how close he came to brushing against me at the door.âEverything alright over there?âI looked up at Noah who was lounged in bed, only in his boxes, a book in hand. He had his reading glasses on and was looking at me over his spectacles. Looking back down at the pancake in the pan, I flipped it.âAll good.ââYou think thatâs all we will see of the Alpha?âI raised my eyebrow but shook my head. âNo. Heâs probably digging through our paperwork to try and find a fault in it. Or maybe trying to reach out to the Alpha King to expand his territory to
Charles got up and ran his hands through his hair. âYou didnât need to go this far, Solaris. Seriously. This is so much information I donât think even we need all this.âI shrugged. âI want to make sure we are the cleanest bar in town. If this is how Silas wants to play it, we can fucking play all day. I feel bad though, at least we get a fight or two for them to watch. This weekend was quiet save for the three kids trying to get in.âHe chuckled. âI hope Silas knows what heâs in for. Iâm sure you donât just roll over when a fight is being picked.âA wide grin spread on my face. âOh, Iâm far too petty to let sleeping dogs lie.ââThe boys will probably be busy with that footage. Want to grab lunch? Or at least a drink?ââSure. Iâm sure youâre hitting your lunch time. You can eat and Iâll have a few drinks?âHe smiled and nodded, leading me out of the room. We walked out of the station and he cursed. âMy partner took the cruiser for lunch it looks like.ââGot an extra helmet, Chief?â My
*** Silas POV ***âWe need to get a handle on this situation.ââI think we need to act now. Start putting our assets together. See what is available and the limit what we are willing to hand over.âElder Calum looked at me for the first time in this whole meeting. âWhat do you think, Alpha?âI sighed and leaned my head in my hand. âI think itâs too soon. Our current flow of humans in the town isnât enough ho warrant such drastic measures yet. I understand Alpha Alex and Alpha Reid have been implementing this within the past year but they are closer to more central hubs of traffic. While we are close to Jackson City, itâs just too small of a town. Everyone who works in the town can live in it. There is no reason to spread further out. So I think we are getting ahead of ourselves as long as the town is as small as it is.âThe group of Elders broke out into another discussion and I sighed. It had its serious benefits to having humans allowed on the territory but I wasnât quite ready for
I heard the door slam shut and I looked up at the time. It was 2 a.m. Rubbing the stubble that had grown in, I stretched in my chair and headed out of the office. With my eyebrow raised and my arms crossed, I looked at Nate trying unsuccessfully to sneak back into his room.âA little late, donât you think?âHe jumped and nearly knocked over a vase full of flowers Meredith had set there a day before.âFuck. Donât scare me like that.â There was the barest hint of a slur in his words. Meaning he was very drunk.âYou didnât drive home did you?âNate groaned. âNo Dad. I didnât. Were you fucking waiting up for me or something?ââWould it matter?ââYou work too much.â He pulled off his bomber jacket, and tucked a hand into his jeans pocket. âGo to sleep, Silas. Iâll tell Mer not to wake you up for breakfast.âShaking my head, I watched him disappear down the left hall of the second floor. It was his wing, his office and room were down that way. Sam took the first floor left side with his off

I hopped the ledge as I saw Nate struggling to set her down. Coming up next to him, I got my hands under his arms to help with the weight. Noah came on the other side and all three of us lifted her onto the wood structure. Finn came up behind us and stepped up, taking the a small stone and pressing it to the white silk. It must have been infused with some type of magic because the white silk faded. It happened so quickly I didnât have time to prepare. My body started to shake and I reached out, grabbing the closest thing for stability which happened to be Nateâs shoulder. They had dressed her in her uniform. It was a far cry from the bloodied and mud-caked version that I carried back to the tent. Her face looked peaceful, and even though you could see how thin she had gotten, there wasnât the immense dark circles. She didnât look sick. With the eyelids down, I wondered if they left her eye in. Her leg and arm were missing but I knew what originally was holding that together was her.
Tucking in my shirt, I took a couple of deep breaths. I hadnât really slept last night. My mind and heart being pulled very which way. It was frustrating and exhausting. Today though, all I needed to do was to show up. Grabbing my watch off my dresser, I was securing the clasp on my wrist when the door to my bedroom opened.âAlpha, are you almost ready?ââYeah, one second, Sam.âTurning, I started to walk towards him but he stared at me, looking me up and down. âAlphaâŚare youâŚnot going to wear a tie?âI smirked. âAre you seriously criticizing how Iâm dressed?â For the second time in two days, my jokes didnât land.Sam frowned and furrowed his brow. âYou look like youâre going into the office to work. You canâtâŚâCharles put his hand on Samâs shoulder and pulled him back. âWhy donât you go get Nate? We will meet you down at pools.âSam looked up at his mate and nodded, disappearing down the hall. Charles walked into the room and my eyes narrowed. We hadnât spoken since he slammed the d
I didnât even bother to pretend like I was working. Sam hadnât given me any work anyways. The whole pack seemed at a standstill. Either they had come to know Aelia as the plucky fun bartender who they liked or, like my warriors, learned just how much of a badass she was. Was. Past tense. My sister was gone, again. Again she slipped through my fingers. Again she protected us. Again she gave everything up for us. But this time, there was no room for hope. She was gone for good this time. Again I couldnât save her.The Alpha King had been called and was already marching out here to provide her with a proper funeral. Finn just about lost it when the Alpha King tried to take her body back to the castle. Finn was right though. She came here for a reason and stayed here for a reason. My lips thinned. She stayed here for us. We were the reason and now her soul would be given to the Moon Goddess from her favorite place. The place that I had originally found out that she was my sister.My messa
*** Silas POV ***Her breathing stopped. Aeliaâs body fell slack in the lap of Finn, her head falling to one side. Finn screamed as Noah held onto him for dear life. Tears streamed down my face as I stared at what was my sister. Nate was curled up into a ball, wailing as he held her hand to his chest. My heart felt like it had been torn from my chest. A silver bullet straight into my heart. It hurt to breath, hurt to be alive. Eros howled within me, crying as only he knew how.She was within my grasp. I finally had her. There were so many more things I needed to tell her, wanted to tell her and that I wanted to ask her. Force her to spill all her secrets that she held from us. Ask her advice on moving forward and how I was supposed to handle the pack. Now, she was gone. My baby sister was gone.When my father said she died, I was angry. That anger drove me and helped me move forward. Itâs what I lived on and thrived on. Seeing Aelia again, watching her smile, watching her be happy and
My sword swiftly beheaded a Hunter before plunging into heart of the one next to him. One of my swords had broken and been lost a long time ago. Looking around, it was still raining. It hadnât even let up once. Bodies littered the ground. We had made headway, pushing the Hunters back and now we just piled them up one after another. My breath showed in the storm and it had dropped even colder from when we started a couple hours ago.Another Hunter attacked me but I nimbly turned, easily using my strength to remove his upper half from the lower half. His body fell in two as his blood sprayed all over me. My eyes still glowed, I still held onto the power as it was the only thing holding me up. The moment I let go was the moment I would leave this world. The magic in my arms, legs, and eye were even crackling under my power.I was able to see every Hunter and their aura within the area. The rain wouldnât help my real eye but it didnât hinder my magic one. Most of my boys had stayed in for
It started to pour sometime in the evening and only got worse as it dawned on the third day. I sat in my chair my fingers laced together, my chin resting on them. My eyes glazed over as I stared nothing, listening to the rain hit the top of my tent. Three days I hadnât slept. Iâd filled my time with everything but sleeping. Battle plans, final checks of troops, Silasâ territory terrain, the endless trails of goodbyes from my warriors. Nate had come at the behest of a few of my warriors. They were worried when I started mulling about the tents looking like the grim reaper was holding me up. He came in, didnât say a thing as he picked me up and deposited me back into my chair inside my tent. Staying with me for a couple hours, we spoke about everything and nothing. We talked about the old house that we dreamed as kids. I shook my head as Nate tried to remember the color schemes of all the bedrooms. For a while, it was a break from the current and impending situation. Eventually though,
Nateâs arms moved and I had expected Silas to pick me up. But instead, the soothing electricity coursed through me as Nate pulled me close to his chest and stood. His body was shaking slightly but after a couple steps, it was far sturdier. âWhere to Aelia?âI swallowed, trying to wet my dry mouth. âThey should have set up the Alpha Prince tent for me.ââAelia! Just come home!â Silas was standing but it was Keri, who moved from behind the tree she had been leaning against, that spoke.She put a hand on Silasâ shoulder. âShe belongs there, Alpha. She belongs with her men. With her family.âSilasâ shoulders dropped and he moved out of the way. Nate started to walk, not saying anything. We wove our way through the trees and at one point I closed my eyes, leaning my head against mate.As much as my life has turned out like this, I couldnât image if that hadnât happened. If the Hunters had never come. When I was four, I knew Nate was my fated mate but I also saw the golden braid connecting
My legs were crossed as I sat in my chair that looked more like a throne with how we were set up. I had my hands intertwined in my lap and my back was straight. Keri said I had to choose what I needed to do but I worried about hurting them still. I loved Noah and Finn. They were my best friends, my partners, my Betas and my lovers. We had gone through so much together and hurting them was never my intention no matter how much it seemed like my actions did.Keri was on my right, Nate and Silas were standing to my left. Behind me, Colton and Dylan were standing to step in front of me. Some of my warriors who werenât actively engaged in planning, or dealing with other orders, were standing to attention in the clearing. All armed and ready.I looked up at Keri. âWhatever you do, donât hurt Finn.ââIf he comes after you, Alpha, Iâm going to put him in his place. I will avoid all vitals and his pup but a broken arm wonât hurt anything but him. Noah is free game.â She almost looked gleeful.
