Katerina
As usual my parents told me nothing except that it is not safe for me to be leaving pack territory without my guards. I asked my father about wolves being able to mask their scent and he told me nothing, saying it was nothing I needed to worry about. I have a feeling it somehow involves witches and wizards.
“If you think any harder you are gonna get wrinkles and a headache,” teases Kai.
“Kai am I in any sort of danger?”
“We are part angel Kat, we’ll always be in danger.”
“That’s not an answer Kai. What do you know?”
“What I can tell you is that those who killed our maternal grandparents and hurt mom are after you too. You need to be more careful.”
“Who killed mom’s parents? Who hurt mom?”
“Dad ordered me not to say anything. I can’t Kat.”
“A coven is involved aren’t they?”
“I can’t say Kat.”
“That means I am right.”
Gunner “She knows we’ve been watching her sir.” “That’s not possible Hunter. Werewolves don’t connect to their wolf until they turn eighteen.” “I’ve been spying on several packs nearby. I learned Katerina has been connected to her wolf since she was like twelve. I think she can at least catch your scent, whatever that is to her.” I let out a small smile, happy to believe she knows her mate is nearby. Loving that my presence possibly calms her as hers calms me. Apollo is getting difficult to control and is demanding I meet her face to face. I worry though what this could do if we end up connecting the mate bond before she is of age. I know her father would not be happy with it, no Alpha would be. “Don’t worry. There is going to be a little bonfire party in a neutral zone between all the packs nearby. Invites have already been spreading and I am sure our Luna there will want to go.
KaterinaWhen we arrive at the mall, I head to the coffee shop first an order a blended snickers to sip on while I try and find something perfect for this party. Liam and Brandon follow me quietly, letting me take them through shop after shop. They don’t complain once as I try on outfit after outfit, not even about the ones I know they find absolutely inappropriate.“Perhaps we can help if we knew what you were looking for,” asks Brandon.Liam just laughs and I can’t help but laugh with him.“Dude, girls don’t even know what they are looking for until they find it.”“As much as I hate to admit it, he’s right,” I giggle.“That makes no sense. Then you’ll be shopping all day.”“That’s the point,” says Liam rolling his eyes.&
KaterinaFinally Friday arrives and I am super excited. Skye came up with the brilliant plan of having a sleep over at her place while Xander stays the night with Kyle. Kyle’s parents are drunks, he is nothing like his parents. He’ll be a great warrior someday despite his parents.“You ready,” asks Skye.“Yes.”I grab my bag and let her lead me down the stairs where aunt Natasha and uncle Jackson are waiting for me. Uncle Jackson is the beta of the pack and a force to be reckoned with and aunt Natasha is dad’s twin. I love when she visits because she always reminds dad that she was born a whole thirty seconds before him though rejected being Alpha. They won’t be easy to sneak away from, but it’ll definitely be easier than trying to sneak away from my parents.“Thank you for having me tonight.&
KaterinaJames gets closer and as I feel his fangs graze my skin as I let out a cry. I expect to feel the awful pain of his fangs piercing my skin, but quickly realize I feel nothing. I look up to find James being held up by his throat by another wolf. At least I think he is a wolf, but I don’t smell anything.“It’s against werewolf law to force a mark,” says the stranger in a low growl.“She has been begging for it,” he claims.“It didn’t seem that way to me. Do you want this wolf to claim you,” the stranger asks me and I can’t seem to find my voice so I shake my head no at him.“There, you have your answer. Now leave before I decide to kill you myself.”The stranger tosses James like a rag doll. James hits a nearby tree before taking off back towards the party with his tail between his legs. The stranger lo
Gunner“Get home safely Katerina. Promise me?”“Uh…I promise.”I can’t help but brush my fingers along her cheek before kissing the top of her head. Apollo is howling, begging me to stay by her side. “I’ll see you again. I promise.”With that I dart into the forest and hide among the bushes until I see her leave with her friend. Apollo is frustrated that we could not take her home with us. He has connected with her wolf and has confirmed Katerina is our mate, but her wolf can’t tell Katerina that. Something about being bound by the moon goddess and needing to learn it for herself. I am beyond irritated that I can’t tell her, but at the same time if she doesn’t recognize the mate bond then she may not believe me and being that I am a lycan, the Alpha lycan at that, I am sure she wouldn’t believe me. A part of me wants to go check on her as I can feel her sadness. Another part of me wants to hunt down this James wolf and kill him. He seems to have targeted what is mine and I can’t all
GunnerI finally have some down time and head to the hospital like I do every Friday. I enter through the doors and the smell of bleach hits me. I’ve walked these halls so many times I could find the room I seek with my eyes closed.“Good afternoon Alpha,” says Joy, my father’s doctor.“Good afternoon. Any changes?”“I’m sorry, no.”Joy leaves me and my father. The annoying beeping sound is the only thing letting us know my father is still alive. I change out the flowers on his night stand and begin his exercise routine. The staff do their jobs well ensuring at least twice a day my father gets some exercise in. I’ll need to make sure to give out bonuses soon.“I wish you were awake father. There is so much I could use your advice on.”I go on to tell him
Gunner“Well it would appear that Katerina’s mother, Ahsoka, is the first nephilim to appear in centuries and Katerina is the first tribrid in history to be born. The nephilim are typically hunted for their powers and according to history were used as slaves, especially the ones that had healing abilities.”“What kind of healing abilities?”“From what I found, many nephilim died healing their masters from the brink of death. They take on that injury and sometimes they couldn’t heal themselves.”“Do we know if Katerina has this ability?”“No, I know nothing of what powers she has. I was only able to find the history of the nephilim and learn about her mother’s history.”“What’s got you so pissed,” I reply.Hunter’s tone indicated what he found he did not like and I can tell when he wants to go kill someone for hurting a s
Gunner‘Alpha, the vampire leader is here,’ mind links the gate guards.‘Let her through.’“Hunter, Adelaide is here.”“Great, let the drama unfold,” he says sarcastically as he sets his pen down and follows me to the foyer.I open the door as Adelaide’s car pulls up and she steps out with a man and a teenage girl.“Adelaide, it’s good to see you.”“It’s been awhile Gunner. I expected your call a whole lot sooner.”“I’m sorry. I am glad you spoke your mind. I didn’t take a chosen mate.”“No you just chose to screw around with a she-wolf from your pack. I hope your mate is understanding.”“Adelaide…”“Just tell me what it is you want.”“I found my mate.”She raises an eyebrow and
KaterinaThe wind is gently blowing on this beautiful sunny day. Spring is in full bloom as the flowers all around us blossom and the birds sing. My heart is full as I rock my son, Ezra, in my arms while watching Gunner play with our children.Three years have past since my life changed drastically. I ended up mated to a lycan and brought peace between the packs. Lycans are no longer feared and outcasted. Some have even moved into wolf packs after finding their mates. The curse is lifted and those who have wished to bring me harm are gone. My children are safe.I can’t help but laugh as the children chase Gunner and tackle him to the ground, being careful to not harm little Keileigh since she is only three. I can’t believe Savannah is now seven and the twins are eleven. Time has gone quickly and I wish it would slow down a bit.&ldqu
GunnerKaterina is in trouble I can feel it, but she said Tristan has our daughter and I need to see for myself if this is true or not. Adelaide’s nephew, Yosif, is mated to a very powerful warlock and was able to sense the dark magic Tristan had used. Tristan had killed a poor seventeen year old warlock to prepare the body for himself to use. I want to make his death a slow painful one, but at the same time I just want him gone from our lives to give Katerina the peace she deserves after all she had been through.‘Kai I need you to get me to your parents pack now!’I am glad I have gained Kai’s trust over the years. He does what I ask, no questions asked, and creates a portal for me. I step through the glowing oval and appear in his parents pack house.“Gunner where is Katerina? What is wrong?”“No time for questions Alpha Nicolai, where is Keileigh?”“She’s right her
KaterinaI really hope this plan of Gunner’s works. I don’t know what Adelaide said him, but it worked. He finally came up with a plan with his siblings and we’ve spent the last three weeks going every detail. Gunner has been making us go over it nonstop to ensure we all know what we are suppose to be doing. I just hope all goes well and we can end this once and for all. To ensure the safety of the triplets and Savannah we sent them to my parents.Keileigh was sent to an unknown location that Gunner and I don’t even know about. We entrusted her safety to Adelaide. It’s been killing me not knowing where she is at and not being able to hold her. I miss all my children. With them all gone I feel so empty.“Kat?”“Uh? I’m sorry Gunner.”“Don’t be sorry. I know you are hurting with them all gone.”“I j
KaterinaI slowly open my eyes but remain in bed, not wanting to face reality. My mind is still replaying everything that I had learned. Tristan is alive. How I do not know, but he is. A knock at the door brings me out of my thoughts. Gunner walks in with Keileigh in his arms making me immediately smile and sit up.“She’s working hard,” I tease as he hands her to me.“She’s keeping me in line,” he chuckles back.Keileigh begins fussing a little and my breasts are killing me so I cradle her close to feed her.“How did he do it?”“According to Allison, he used black magic to basically take over another person’s body upon his death. And he can keep doing this unless we stop him.”“How do we do that?”“Allison will need to basically get into his mind to
KaterinaOnce Dr. Joy and Kai cleared Keileigh and I home. Lucas informed me the kids decorated the house for a little surprise party to welcome Keileigh home. It warms my heart how much love this child has in her life.“Lucas where is Gunner?”I can tell he has been hiding something from me, especially since Gunner is not here to take us home. I can’t imagine what is more important right now.“Luna…he..”“Don’t even try to lie. What is going on?”“The pup, Taylor. He wasn’t a wolf at all.”“Okay, so what is he?”“According to Kai and Allison, it’s Tristan.”“That’s not possible. He’s dead.”“I know.”“But…he..oh goddess Helen! Where is Helen? The young guard th
GunnerI struggle to control Apollo upon hearing that fucking Tristan is alive. How that is possible and appearing as a kid I don’t know. Allison and Kai have been pouring through all the books she has collected through the years, some even about dark magic. Allison said she thought about destroying the books many times, but felt they could be of use one day. I’m glad she has them.“Lucas you are to remain by Katerina and Keileigh’s side. Tristan is sure to come for one or both of them.”“Tristan? Isn’t that warlock dead?”“Apparently not, though it appears he is in the form of that kid so be careful. We don’t know what other tricks he has up his sleeve.”“Yes Alpha.”“Hunter, gather your best warriors. We need to find the son of a bitch.”“I’m coming with you,” says Dahlia.
Katerina“Taylor, this is Helen.”Taylor takes in Helen, but shows no emotion.“Hello Taylor. My name is Helen and I hear you have had quite a traumatic experience. I would like to help you if you’d let me. Would you like to go for a walk with me?”Taylor looks at me and I nod my head at him. He gets up and follows Helen outside with the assigned warrior. Helen places her hand on his back as she leads him outside and I worry her gifts won’t work. Taylor is looking back at me and is not saying one word to her which I’ve never seen happen.“You really think she can help him?”“Yes, she has a special gift,” I reply though I am for once unsure.I head back inside as Helen and Taylor disappear from view and head upstairs. I take a few steps and I suddenly get a sta
KaterinaThe next morning I find staff cleaning up from last night’s party. Gunner and Hunter are already busy with daily duties and though I have my own Luna duties, Jolene took over so I could rest. Everyone is sure I’ll go into labor any day now. I head to the kitchen to grab some fruit when I hear the staff gossiping.“Did you hear about the pup border patrol locked up last night? Some rogue.”“Really? A pup? I wonder what he did?”“I don’t know, but the Alpha must believe he is a danger if he is locked up in the cells.”Anger immediately grips me at the thought of a poor pup being locked in the cells all night. I quickly get changed in another maxi dress that Jolene got me and I head straight for the cells.“Luna what are you doing,” asks Lucas as he walks up behind me.“Why in the world is a pup
KaterinaWatching the boys try to change a diaper properly and quickly is one of the funniest things I have ever seen. Poor Gunner obviously has no idea what he is doing and surprisingly Kai is done first. I look at him with a raised eyebrow and I see him chuckle.‘I helped change you when you were a baby sis. I’m a pro at this point.’‘You’ll have to teach Gunner a thing or two then,’ I giggle back through the link.Once the games have concluded, Dahlia announces it’s time for the gender reveal. Dahlia wanted to do something big, but got overruled by me. I wanted something simple so we went with cutting the cake. Though Gunner and I know, the rest of our family and friends do not know. Gunner takes his hand in mine and together we cut a slice of the cake to reveal pink inside. Everyone cheers and come up one at a time to congratulate us. My mother and Gunner’
