LOGINMaeve "MAEVE?!" my brother yelled my name as Kayin ran towards the voices of those who were disrespecting us.I didn't exactly plan on shifting in front of everyone like this, but obviously, my wolf has a temper. As Kayin rounded the corner, she came face to face with Darin, Shane, and Stacy. Their eyes widened as they stared at my wolf. I want to think that it was out of fear, but I suspected it was because Kayin was blue. "What the fuck are you?!" Stacy asked, making sure to keep her distance from my wolf. Kayin lowered her head and let out an angry growl as she took a step towards the tanned-skinned asshole, his brunette best friend, and their bleach-blonde bitch who was hiding behind them. Before Kayin had a chance to make her move, the scent of peppermint and chamomile captured our attention ..... and without looking I knew our mate was here. "Don't do anything I'd do, love," Luke said quietly as he placed a hand on Kayin's back to help calm her. Kayin may have
Layla Phoenix was carrying on in my mind like a crazed animal, begging me to go to the strange man who just crashed the meeting. But instead of listening to my wolf, I used every bit of strength I had to keep control over her, and I quickly made my way to the kitchen and out the back door. Finding my mate on my eighteenth birthday may have been what I wanted; it's what every werewolf wants. But now that it had actually happened, I was overwhelmed by emotions. It wasn't the romantic encounter I thought it would be. Instead, it was VERY public, and the thought of running off with or being rejected by my mate as my parents were getting ready to leave the pack cut deeper than I anticipated. It was too much .... just way too much ..... "Layla?" Aiden called out my name with concern in his voice as I hurried along the back of the building. "Layla, did you see him?! He's SOOO handsome!" Phoenix cooed in my mind. But I continued to ignore my wolf .... why the fuck is the banquet ha
Rieka I hated summits. As if it weren't bad enough that I had to be surrounded by so many people, I needed to dress somewhat formally as well. The dress I had on was an ombre color, starting black at the top and transitioning into a mixture of soft earth tones at the bottom. I hated how fancy it was, and was jealous of the fact that Jo had a simple blue dress on that matched Sylvia's hair, while Sylvia was wearing her bohemian tiered rainbow dress. "It's not going to kill you to dress up once in a while," Lupa said with a sarcastic chuckle. I ignored my wolf as I sat in front of Jo's large antique mirror, staring blankly at my reflection as Mia and Jo did my hair and makeup while Sylvia patiently waited for them to finish so that we could leave. At least I wouldn't be alone in my suffering. Normally, only Alphas, Lunas, and their children were involved in the summit meetings. But since Seth and I didn't have any children of our own, Freya, Falco, Layla, Maeve, and Aiden we
Rieka Seth and I were holding hands as we walked quietly towards the banquet hall. It was such a relief when the last of the Alphas and Lunas had finally arrived. I'm sure most of them were preparing for tomorrow's meetings, but the only thing I cared about was getting something to eat and then returning to our room. "You know we don't have to go to the buffet. I can take you out for dinner if you want," Seth offered. I shook my head. "The banquet hall is closer, and the buffet food is already cooked. Which means I get food in my stomach quicker. When we get back to our room, I want to see if I can find something in Gram's books about her involvement with what happened." "Good luck with that," a familiar man's voice said from behind us. Seth and I stopped walking and turned around to see Peter, Alice, Chris, and Chloé approaching us. Thanks to Peter being a demonic vampire and marking Alice, they didn't age a day. But Chris and Chloè have. Chloé had visible gray in her gre
Falco After my balls finally found their way back into my scrotum and I could breathe without feeling like I was going to throw up on myself, I let Karro take over to take us back home. I sure wasn't about to make that long walk myself. I've gone my whole life doing everything possible to protect my manhood, and with one minor lapse of judgment, the human who was my mate tried sending my jewels to my tonsils. And what was with that cloak? It was obviously masking her scent. If it weren't for the fact that she's my mate, I wouldn't have even known she was there. "For someone who said he didn't want a mate right now, you're pointing out the fact that she's ours an awful lot," Karro said sarcastically before I shifted back and ever so carefully made my way into the packhouse. As soon as I walked through the front door, I heard the back door open and shut. I quietly shut the front door and peered down the hall just enough to see my sister cautiously walking down it, as if she did
Rieka Alphas and Lunas arrived steadily throughout the day, and I was thankful to everyone who helped get them settled into their rooms. However, we still had one more couple to wait on. A huge grin formed on my face when I saw their red car pull up the driveway, and I heard Seth let out an amused snort from next to me. "I wish you were that happy to see ME," Seth said sarcastically. I glared at him with equal sarcasm as I backhanded his chest. "I see you every day, plus, you get to see me naked." "And it wouldn't hurt if you did that more often," Seth said with a wink. I scoffed and looked away from Seth just in time to see a handsome man with brown hair and frosty eyes step out of the passenger side of the red car. As soon as Nathan shut his door, I ran up to him and wrapped my arms around him in a huge hug. "I've missed you so much! Please tell me that Douglas guy is still treating you right?" Nathan laughed while I heard an exaggerated forced sigh from the other
Isabella I watched helplessly as the battle took place. "That's it, you fucking morons, go get yourselves killed," Chantel whispered into my ear as we watched Timpohy and the dark witch disappear into the fighting crowd. Chantel then turned to look at Damian, still holding the blade against my
Isabella We stopped walking once we reached a large oak tree standing alone in the center of a low-cut field surrounded by wooded hills. Thunder echoed in the distance as thick, black clouds took over the sky. It didn't take long before large drops of rain started to fall. "I thought it was su
Rieka It was the night of the third day of Izzy's kidnapping, and we weren't any closer to figuring out what was going on and where she was. After dinner, we all gathered in the living room to continue discussing how to adjust our plans for the next day. Well, everyone except for Damian. Damian
Rieka As I unwillingly sat in the meeting room next to Seth, I anxiously played with the nonexistent ring that hadn't been on my finger for months. A habit that I'm sure will be impossible for me to break. It didn't matter how big the meeting room was, I still felt uncomfortable surrounded by 1
