Sally looked at me and said ‘What are you doing here honey? I have been looking for you and feared you might have joined your parents’. I told her about staying at my grandmother, but didn’t want to say too much. Only the mention of my grandmother made Sally angry. ‘That awful woman! Beatrix couldn’t have your mother, so she used you!’. I looked at her with a confused look. ‘What do you mean?’, I asked. ‘Of course Beatrix didn’t tell you. Your mother was 16 when she came to my pack. She was the daughter of the Beta of Alpha Connor, your other grandfather. My parents were the head omega’s before I took over. We became friends quickly, but it was years before Rose told me the truth. I was the only one that knew, besides your father. She should have never told Alpha Finnegan, your father couldn’t handle it. I think that’s why he helped Lenore. Hoping he could stop it’. Sally stopped, she looked at me and began to laugh. ‘What did you do to your hair?!’

Elias’ pov Both my parents were equally pissed and righteously so. My dad played bad cop and shouted at me. While my mother sat me down and talked to me in a calm voice, clearly good cop. But it worked, I knew they were disappointed. But there wasn’t much they could do to punish me at this point. I was almost 18 and tomorrow I would be King of the werewolves. I would basically be in charge of them, even though I would never say that out loud. I told my mother ‘honestly mama, I am so confused. I barely know her, but for a while I suspected she might be my mate. Her scent drives me crazy and we had our moments together. But most of the time she spent at the packhouse she was really angry with me, for no clear reason. I don’t believe she’s an evil person. You don’t have to worry. I am not delusional, I know it would be ridiculous to still have feelings for someone after they tried to kill you. But I couldn’t let her sit there and be hurt by papa and perhaps killed afte

Elias’ pov My mother had asked me in advance if I wanted to shift with just her or if other people could be present. At the time I didn’t mind having an audience, a lot of people had their first shift in front of others. But now the time was getting closer to my own first shift I was getting anxious. Would it be better to just do this with my parents? I asked my mother ‘mama, do you think it would be better if it was just you and me when I shift?’. She looked at me and saw my nerves and nodded. ‘I know just the place. Let me just tell Axel to let everyone know we will meet them for a run after you’ve shifted’. She seemed to mindlink my father and we walked together to the edge of the forest. My father brought a big t-shirt for my mother to wear and some shorts for me, it would be awful to ruin our nice clothes after wearing them only one night. I stripped and put on the short, as did my mother and we walked into the trees. My parents were holding hands and looking u

Jade's pov Meeting Jacob and learning about the new Alpha had thrown me off a much more important topic. Sally had just shared that I could be part of a prophecy and that my grandmother was a liar. Normally I wouldn’t have believed Sally’s story, but it was too much to make up on the spot. Not to mention the fact that everyone else besides my grandmother had a different story of how my parents were. I always thought my mother stood by my father and agreed with his choices. But it seemed like the decision to support Lenore my father made on his own. I was snapped out of my thought by Sally ‘Finley, are you okay? I know I just revealed a lot to you’. I nodded ‘I just have to wrap my brain around everything. So you’re saying I might be part of a witches prophecy? And that my father was in the wrong to help Lenore?’. Sally was thinking for a while and then answered me ‘You have to make up your own mind about your father. To me an Alpha looks out for their pack, for ever

Elias povIn hindsight it was silly of me to think I would start my job as King right away. I needed time to get used to my powers, I needed to find people around me I could trust and I honestly needed to finish high-school. There were only a few weeks left and I could really use that time to practice with Zane. When I had graduated I could travel around and see all the Alpha’s. Hopefully I could get a good feel of what was necessary for me to do. Perhaps my mother could join me on some of the travels, although I don’t want people to think I need my mommy close all the time. I was the first to admit I was a mommy’s boy, but this was my destiny not hers. I mindlinked my father and told him my plans. My father was happy I wasn’t leaving right away and I took my education seriously. I think he was also secretly happy my mom didn’t start her new job right away, they could finally have some time together without having to protect me.

Jade’s povJacob came over for dinner and chatted the whole time, telling me about his job and the alpha. And how everything was better now that Alpha Ivar was in charge. ‘He’s really making some changes. Alpha Soren was fine and all, but he lacked ambition. Alpha Ivar wants to expand and grow. He has a long term plan for our pack’. Sally told Jacob how I was planning on going to school here for my last semester and needed a part time job. ‘I have some experience in a butcher shop’ I told them ‘or I can work the counter at a grocery store?’. Sally asked Jacob if he could show me around tomorrow and look for a job. She would handle registering me at school. I noticed it was silent for a while and Sally and Jacob looked at each other very seriously. They must be talking about me through their mindlink I though. I just turned 17 before moving to Crimson Moon pack. Living with my grandmother I was always fearful of turning

Jade’s pov Jacob and I headed back to Sally’s house and he told me he would pick me up later. Jacob seemed really excited. I headed inside and waited for Sally to get home. I showered and did my hair, I used some of my new hair product which really helped. Before my hair was almost flat on my head, but now I’ve added some volume. When Sally came back I told her about the invite, ‘I am sorry, I know I’m suppose to be laying low. But it would be rude to decline and Jacob looked so happy. I need help with clothing though’ I said embarrassed. Luckily Sally wasn’t one to throw away anything so she had some clothes from back when she was young ‘it’s a good things everything comes back in style at some point’ Sally said as she handed me a dress. It was a floral grunge dress from the 90’s. I was far shorter than Sally and it was a bit wide, but I had move curves so it still fit. I wore my green necklace and Sally put some black mascara and eyeliner on. ‘I also have some boo

Elias’ povIt was almost time to graduate, I had been training with Zane a lot and spending time with my family and Zoey before I was leaving. It felt really good to see my parents so happy and carefree together. My father and I had a good talk about Jade, I explained I didn’t think she was a bad person and would harm others. It was all about getting revenge for her parents and since she couldn’t kill me the first time I doubted she would try again. Especially since it was now almost impossible to kill me. I didn’t tell my parents I would try and feel her emotions every evening, to see if she was doing well. Jade seemed to be okay, often feeling guilty and sad. Some of the time she was feeling numb, like she was just going through the motions. It felt kind of wrong checking up on her, like I was stalking her. Perhaps I should just check if she was alive every month? ‘You are negotiating with yourself to see how much of a stalker you can

Jade’s pov Things have been going fine at the Shadow pack for me. I am doing well in school. Sally has been so kind and has helped me learn so much about my parents, especially my mother. I was four years old when they died, so there weren’t a lot of memories from that time I had left. But it had been so wonderful to learn what my mother was like when she was around my age. The only thing that has been difficult is work. For the last few weeks I have been working at the packhouse in the weekends. And when Alpha Ivar is not around everything is fine. But he seems to find me every time he’s home. When it’s just him and me in the room he is so sweet, sometimes giving me gifts and calling me ‘his rose’. But when there are other omega’s around he criticises my work. It’s even worse when friends of his are over, he taunts me and teases me about my height and short hair. He even joked and said ‘you look like a 13 year old boy’ once. I was dreading going to work today,

Elias pov I had no idea why Finley had to talk to Zoey first, but I needed an answer from Finley now. Finley didn’t need my protection anymore and she had finished testifying, so there was no reason for her to stay with me. I had mindlinked Zoey, but she didn’t respond. When I mindlinked Raven she said she found Zoey in her bedroom, she was shot and barely breathing. I ran as fast as I could and found Raven holding Zoey in her arms “she is shot with a silver bullet. It is still stuck somewhere, but I can’t find it. She needs help.” She was bleeding a lot and the silver bullet was making sure she couldn’t heal herself. Finley was walking to the hotel and she should be back any minute now, maybe she could heal Zoey. I heard a faint bang, it sounded almost like firework really far away. Most wouldn’t have heard it, but I pick up everything with my hearing. I mindlinked Finley, but it seemed like something was blocking me from reaching here. Zane got worried “you need t

Finley’s pov I needed something to distract me from this day. I was glad Alpha Ivar was gone, I really was. But I hated how everyone treated me and thought I was a threat. If there weren’t any other witnesses they might have believed Alpha Ivar, mostly because I was a witch. “But Elias’ parents don’t see you that way. They both defended you,” Diona said. “Yes, I was surprised by their words and really touched. I didn’t expect that from Luna Amber especially.” I replied. When Elias asked me to dinner I agreed without thinking twice. Maybe I should have thought this through, now I was stuck at the same table with him and the mate bond was so strong. I could feel the pull, making me want to touch Elias’ all the time. I should reject him again, but for some reason he didn’t accept this first time. “Don’t you remember, he said he loves you.” Diona said. That was just a dream right? I was almost dying and I lost consciousness. Elias looked at me from across the table “wha

Elias’ pov Finley had calmed me down, but I still wanted to kill Alpha Ivar for trying to rape Finley. Alpha Ivar asked another question “for someone who says to have so little magic, you seem to have a hold on our King. Do you deny trying to kill him?” Finley looked at me and said “I don’t deny it. I tried to poison King Elias before his 18th birthday. I regretted the decision afterwards and I called Luna Amber to help. Luckily she could save him. I was imprisoned by Alpha Axel soon after.” Alpha Ivar listened carefully to my words and then asked “so you sleep with him, then poison him and now you share a special bond, enough for you to travel with him for months?” How did he know I was traveling with Finley all this time? Finley answered “I had developed feelings for King Elias and it felt wrong to take a life, especially his. Elias had allowed me to travel with him to keep me save from my grandmother, who was looking for me after I failed to kill

Finley’s pov I had just killed my grandmother by using plants, healed my potential father-in-law. This should be easy right? I just had to tell what happened to me in Alpha Ivar’s dungeon. In front of everyone. Everyone who would likely hate me after hearing what I was and who my father was. Diona tried to give me more confidence “it doesn’t matter who or what you are, nobody can treat you the way he treated you. And you can tell them everything he did to Charlotte. You are the only one who can speak for her now.” Diona was right, I had to testify. Everyone should know what an awful person Alpha Ivar was, even if they found out about me. I got dressed, wearing a black pencil skirt, a white blouse and a blazer. My hair had grown out a bit the last few months and I just had it cut last week into a layered short bob. I put a tiny bit of make-up on, enough to make it seem like I had actually slept well. When I walked downstairs to eat something Elias was already sitting

Elias’ pov Finley was still unconsciousness in my arms and there was no way the witches would believe the word of a wolf. For all they knew I had killed Finley and Beatrix. No one made a move yet, but I could see they didn’t trust a word I had said. One of the witches came forward and said “if you truly care about Finley you need to let us heal her.” I didn’t know if I could trust them with Finley, she was as much wolf as she was witch. But we had to start somewhere, Finley was raised here. They wouldn’t harm her right? “We have to try. If they can help Finley heal. We have to try.” Zane said. I walked towards the witch and asked “where do you want her?”, she pointed to one of the houses and I walked in and placed Finley on the sofa in the living room. Every step I took towards the house I was followed by the stares of witches and they would be one step behind me, to make sure I didn’t try anything. I sat down next to the couch and asked “please help her.” The witch

Finley’s pov My grandmother had always kept her coven hidden from the werewolves by using spells, but I could see through them. I knew Elias and Luna Amber would have a hard time tracking me, but this would be for the best. I should be the one to stop my grandmother, maybe I could convince her before she hurt anyone. I shifted back close to the coven, walking around naked towards my grandmother’s house. I was surrounded by witches and I was too busy stopping grandma to even care about having no clothes on. I walked to my grandmother’s house and opened the door, seeing Alpha Axel and Gamma Omar tied up on the floor in a corner. They had clearly been drugged, because they were barely able to move or talk. But I saw Alpha Axel’s eyes opening. My grandmother faced me and said “Jade you came back”. I replied “My name is Finley and I am not here for you grandma. I am here to get Alpha Axel and his gamma back.” My grandmother looked at in disgust, as if I was pure fi

Elias’ pov I should have never left Finley alone. I just needed a moment. Finley avoided me all day yesterday and today we had a lot to do, mom was coming and the trial would start. But my mom just annoyed me. All my parents cared about was that I was keeping Finley safe and they failed to notice how hard it was for both of us to be around each other. I know keeping Finley safe was the most important thing for every werewolf. She could be the end of a prophesied war. But to me Finley was more than just someone to protect. She was my mate and she rejected me. My mom asked “is everything okay? Her wolf is nice, so that means she most likely will side with the wolves if anything happens right?” and it pissed me off. Of course all my mom cared about was that Finley would choose our side if a war ever broke out. I replied “yes mama, she will side with us. Because that is all she is good for right?” and I walked off leaving Finley with Zoey and my mom. When Zoey rus

Finley’s pov I didn’t tell Elias I could hear my wolf the first time I shifted. I wanted to, but we were so busy running and playing and it felt so good to be outside. I never thought about shifting until I came to the Crimson Moon pack. I had always thought I wouldn’t use my wolf and be a witch full time. Perhaps even use a spell to get rid of my wolf. But now having one, I never felt more complete. Diona, my wolf was so calming. Even before I could hear her I had felt her energy all day. Today had been the perfect day. I woke up feeling Diona in my mind and felt more at ease than I’ve had in a long time. Then Elias took me to the city and we had a great time. I promised to keep my distance, but it felt like we were starting to be friends. And Elias had even put money in an account for me each month. I had my own money that I could use whenever I could leave. But why did Elias have to ruin this perfect day by being my mate?! Why didn’t he tell me it was a full

Elias’s pov Hearing Finley talk about what Alpha Ivar had done to her made me go insane with guilt. Should I just have killed him when I had the chance? Should I have looked for Finley sooner? I didn’t know if I would be able to handle everything Finley had gone through, she was so strong. Finley’s birthday was coming up soon and two days later the trial would start. I planned to do the trial sooner, but it was so much work trying to get everyone here at the same time. I had to make sure there was a place for every witness, every judge and their security to stay. The trial was open to public, so there were a lot of other people coming as well. Honestly I was so happy I hired Raven, she had been the best investment I have ever made and she makes Zoey very happy. I had hired a lot of people now and sometimes I felt more like a business man than a King. But this was all part of the plan I had envisioned right? I would get to travel the world and find ways to help packs
