ARTEMIS POV

“I don’t blame you,” he replies. “My parents told me they were warned in a dream that I would be a special wolf, and that I would recognize my purpose when the time was right. So, we hid my powers from the council, and from everyone that posed a threat. My parents taught me from an early age how to hide my inkling for the sun. And I have kept true to their wishes. Well, that was until I saw you last week and I felt my pull towards you and the way my power swelled just by being in your proximity. I knew then, Donnie wasn’t mad, and that you were the person and the sign I have been waiting for all along.”

We were so immersed in our conversation that when the chef announced the menu for the night, we were both startled. “In tonight’s menu we have tuna tartar in a miso soy glaze, followed by a fennel Frise salad, and filet mignon with roasted potatoes and creamed spinach.”

Neither of us paid much attention to what he said, we were lost in each other’s eyes. Donovan was giving

    ARTEMIS POVThe next few days flew by. With so much to get done prior to our departure my focus was solemnly on getting ready for what’s to come and ensuring the island would continue to run smoothly without most of my team. I had texted with both Jax and Donovan, but just briefly. Tonight, I’m supposed to join him for dinner and bring Ale back with me.“Ahem, no you won’t be going there.”“Mom? Why not?”“Because you are showing preference, and the fates are not liking it. Darling you can have your preferences, but you cannot make them so obvious. Your aunts a quite tricky, and you can tilt the scales in a manner that you won’t like. With them is act first consequences be damned, you have to be the opposite. Think first, plan, educate yourself, then act.”“Crap, I did something similar with Donovan.”“That was different.”“How so? I was in his territory, in his space, in his home.”“Donovan had essential information that you needed to know, Jaxon doesn’t have that for you, not yet.”

    ARTEMIS POV I kept trying to reach out to him, but the darkness emanating out of his aura was dense, and it prevented me from reaching him. ‘Try Ares,’ suggest Selena. ‘If we can’t reach Jaxon then perhaps, we can reach out to Ares.’ She’s right, it won’t hurt to try. And so, we concentrated on Ares on our connection, on my memories with him and everything good that we have with him. The more we focused on the wood the more progress we made through the fog, the darkness becoming less and less dense our path for the first time in what felt like hours was finally clearing. What was once a wall of darkness was now a mist, with a very tiny flame at the end; and there he was Ares. Lost in his own consciousness his eyes black like this place, a place that lives in his own mind. “Ares? Ares can you hear me? I asked. I went to reach out and touch him, when I feel resistance from Selena, ‘no art, I don’t think that’s Ares.’ ‘I know its him. We have to snap him out of this trance. Gods kn

    ARTEMIS POV“What brings about your Lycan form?”“I don’t know how to explain it, when the darkness pulls on my essence, I go into a place that I’m forced to be my truest, strongest self.”“That place where I found you earlier?” He nods.“The shadow realm. I was tasked by your mother to keep the doors sealed shut, to prevent Hades from releasing his hell on our world sooner than the Gods have planned for it.”“Does he know? “He shakes his gigantic head. “No Jaxon isn’t aware of what happens when I go there. I hid it from him. I lock him away, I’m protecting him.”“I don’t think you are.” He turned, looking at me with worry on his face. “I wouldn’t have survived that place without Selena by my side.” I sense her nodding in my head in agreement. “You need Jaxon when you go back there Ares. Your human is your anchor. As my wolf is mine.”He is pensive and quiet for a moment, then nods, “perhaps.”“Where is he now? Still locked away?”“Yes, once I get off the mountain and away from the de

But I also felt the need to work through everything that had just happened, and who better to do that with than my brother. I quickly hop in the shower and then get dressed, once ready I made sure to mind link him, ‘hey, just making sure you’re decent before I pop in.’‘Were you planning on opening a portal into my room?’ he asks. ‘Why would I do that?’ I reply.‘Then how were you going to catch me with my balls in hand Art?’‘Eww, the image. I could really do without those.’‘You walked yourself right into that one.’I groaned.‘Get your ass over here already.’Picturing my childhood home, I open a portal right outside the packhouse, just seeing it makes me smile. This mansion will always be home to me. I made my way up the front steps and let myself in. “Hi Clarice!” I greet, Clarice is my brother’s nanny. She has been running the packhouse ever since I can remember. “Hello, my darling,” she rushes ove

    ARTEMIS POVI watched Aidan move, throw, hover, and fly rocks for a while, his enthusiasm was like that of a child in a candy store. I was able to recognize through the link how happy he was at feeling useful for me, what he didn’t realize was that he was more useful to me than he could ever have imagined. He wanted to continue to train and harness his newly found powers, but I was able to convince him to continue our walk. “I know it isn’t my place for me to divulge what I’m about to, but I can’t have my team look into it I would really feel like I’m breaking his trust.”“How about you open a portal into the wine cellar so we can grab a bottle, because from the conflicted feelings verging on anxiety that I’m reading through the bond; I’m going to need it.” It didn’t take much for me to open a portal into the cellar, as a child it used to be my favorite hiding spot. Aidan stepped in and seconds later steps out with a bottle of scotch that looks to be older than some of the elders. “Da

I can’t be a woman and think with my hooha.” He raises his hands, “your what?” I groan, “my hooha, yes that what I call it. Moving on!”He starts laughing like a maniac, “no way, do you tell it oh good morning hooha, how did you sleep last night?” I roll my eyes ignoring his question, “listen just be grateful Logan isn’t here and couldn’t hear what you just said, he would never let THAT one go.” He was now holding his stomach while cackling like a banshee, “Are you done yet?” I ask, clearly annoyed. He coughs, “sorry, that was unexpected.” I roll my eyes again, “like I was saying before I was so rudely interrupted. I need to think like the queen and goddess that I am, not the woman.”“My feelings and wh

I quickly greeted everyone and came back home, my mother and I were due for a chat, so instead of calling out to her I felt for my tether to the Moon Goddess realm and opened a portal. My mother was sitting in front of the fountain of life, “I see you’ve come to get answers.”“I think it’s only fair since I’ve had to figure things out on my own.” She nods, “what do you want to know?”“Why Ares? Mom, I was devastated when he left, I remember it now.”“Yes, now! And you were devastated, but you were reborn and had a chance to start over from scratch. Now why Ares? Aidan gave you that answer, I swear everyday he impresses me more and more.”“Mom!” I shout.“Ares is powerful enough to contain the shadows after all they belong to him. They are the evil souls he’s killed. Hades uses them to try and break him, but Ares is a lot stronger than what Hades gives him credit for.”“So, you

    Artemis POV “Luna, Luna, Luuuuuuuna. It’s time to get up.” Ugh now I can’t even sleep in peace. I guess today most people would be excited to start on a journey they’ve been prepping for their entire lives. But guess what? I’m not just anyone. Today I’m officially 24 and my crusaders have finally come to pass judgement…Nah, just kidding. Today is the day everyone finally gets to confirm that I’m real and not just a rumor, and they’ve all come to introduce themselves and present their respects. But also, to set their eyes on the priced jewel of the underworld A.K.A me. YAY!!! So now you can see why waking up this morning isn’t particularly appealing to me. “Lunaaaaa” she screams as she pounds on my door. “I’m up Judith, I’m up. For fuck’s sakes!” Kicking the covers, I realize I really need to get up before she brings down my door and knocks me off the bed. So, I grabbed my silk robe off the chaise and go to open my door, to be greeted by a very angry looking Judith. “Took you lon
