My heart was beating faster than normal at the thought that Dane had been in mortal danger and Hekate; my mother, had to intervene and the children had witnessed it. The fear clouded my thoughts and feelings, drowning the emotions geared from meeting my birth mother for the first time. So many things were happening at the same time. I took a quick glance at the entrance Hekate had walked through a moment before with my children as if it was the most natural thing in the world, and not that she had just brought my children back from Mount Olympus. I swallowed, conjuring her image in my mind, and thought she looked quite stunning. And it almost seemed as if I was looking at my own reflection. I felt really charged when she hugged me as if she was passing energy through the very core of my being. Dane making love to me earlier had renewed my strength that had been drained by the ordeal with that bitch; Isidora. But Hekate holding me made me feel even more whole with my skin ting
The scene before me was impressive. Saraya has succeeded in buying time and protecting Jared, Sarafina, and the pack gammas. I saw the Lycans we rescued from the human realms were in the mix with Hauser and Kahn. The number of enemies beyond the veil was vast with Vrionis atop a fire-breathing dragon, billowing fire against the shield. And I could see he had replaced his severed hand with a mechanical one.I took a side glance at the guardians in silent inquiry. Anastasios Martas' eyes were swirling with anger. "One of yours?" I asked, gesturing to the dragon. "Mine," one of the newly freed guardians answered from the back. "We may never get him back. He has that damn contraption around his neck!" Anastasios Martas growled. "That thing killed my beast, I can't wait to get my hand on that little shit!" Anastasios Martas snarled. "You all have to be careful, we can't tell what else he has up his sleeves," Evanore said. I nodded. Saraya and Evanore hurried forward to help Sarafina.
I watched as a legion of wolves and Lycans milled to one side, about half of Vrionis armies, but the rest plus the ones with the neck bracelets did not stop. They started to rush forward towards us. Anastasios Martas howled and the guardians swept in after them. "If you are with me, stand to the far right!" Bertulf yelled, "and let the grounds drink the blood of traitors!" Vrionis half-shifted as he got closer to us. Bertulf did the same. And the difference between their beasts made me understand better the possible source of Vrionis' hatred. Bertulf was not a wolf but a mixed-breed Lycan. "Don't die," I told him. "He is no match for me," he growled back. "He didn't have a mechanical arm then, he does now," I warned and turned my back for just a second thinking to cut off the weight holding the balloon steady, so it could float up unrestrained. And from the corner of my eye, I saw Vrionis leap, landing in front of his half-brother, the two circle each other before leapi
"Are you going to kill me? You gutless fool!" Vrionis taunted Bertulf as he came to stand by his side. "No. I have exactly what I wanted. You, groveling at my feet, knowing you are about to die,' Bertulf replied. Vrionis snarled and even with one arm gone and his face bloodied with deep gashes on his left cheek, he made to lunge at Bertulf but Raedwulf Lykaon raised his right booted feet and crushed his head. Alora, Evanore, and I flinched and looked away. Reaching out to wrap her fingers around my wrist and Alora's, Evanore whispered, "We should leave the men to finish this up." "Yes!" Alora effused with eyes shielded with her other hand. I gestured to Sarafina to join us as Evanore drew us away from the scene and we found our way through dead bodies and to our side of the border. I didn't look back until we were on our side. And when I did, I only looked upward, silently searching for my husband for the second time in hours. "You can go home, Luna, this might take a w
Leaving Saraya sleeping on the bed, I left the room with the intent to parade the pack grounds, the poor thing was tired. It's been quite a day. Wondering if anyone took up Evanore's offer or if Anastasios Martas had snatched his mate away as I did mine. My lips stretched in a smile and I took a deep breath, allowing that familiar feeling of contentment to settle over me. I swore it's been a while. The thought of Zeus still unnerved me whenever he came to mind but I figured I would be able to weather whatever plan he is cooking up as long as I have my family. The sight of the foyer being completely empty made me chuckle. I strode towards the kitchen and sniffed, my strides faltered as I thought about whether to go in or let the two be. Out of curiosity, I proceeded and pushed the door open. Bertulf was sitting on one of the tall stands by the kitchen workable and Ana; his mate, was serving him some steaks. The two looked in my direction when I peered in. "I wasn't expecting to s
Dead, winged creatures and crows – lots and lots of crows, dropped from the heavens like flies. My heart lunged into the wall of my chest as I watched from the kitchen window. "This can't be good," I muttered. The first thing that drew my attention from my comfy couch a moment before was the unusual clap of thunder and the over-bright lightning, flashing in the sky and illuminating the grounds as clear as day. It was quite awe-inspiring and um... frightening. And that was saying something for a powerful witch like me. But right now, I wasn't thinking as a witch, but as a lone woman in her home up a mountain in solitude. I couldn't be certain, but I thought I saw a massively built half-man, half-beast far bigger and taller than a giant. He had two horns, springing from his head, and was riding a pegasus, a four-winged horse. He held a thunderbolt, waging it like a sword and descending mightily into the woods. And then another one rushed after it. "Wait, what?! Great! Just what I
Gaining consciousness, I let out a sigh. The familiar feeling of hollowness gnawed at me inside. I knew that feeling very well. I knew what it meant. I was not engulfed in an unusually warm embrace nor were there any signs of me being anywhere near any woods, a cabin on a mountaintop nor were there impossibly tall creatures riding a fucking four winged horses, least of all crows. It was just a strange dream I had had countless times. I supposed one of the demerits of having an overactive imagination. And as a student of literature and an avid reader with a dream of becoming a writer one day that was understandable --- weird but understandable. A quiet groan escaped my lips. My head was pounding as if it was going to explode and I forced my eyelids open, slowly coming into cognisance of my surroundings. I was in motion and in the back seat of a moving … um car? A confused frown furrowed my eyebrows. A forceful tug of my legs made me lower my eyes to my thighs. I found a tan male han
I jerked my eyes in his direction and saw his two hands were askew. I covered my mouth to silence a gasp, lifting my eyes up, I let them trail up the stranger's tall, big frame, but his face was not visible. He wore a black hooded jacket over black leather pants. The hoodie was pulled over his head, concealing his face and the shrouded alley was an added advantage. He proceeded to be completely brutal to Gab. I couldn’t help feeling sorry for him even though he was a complete scumbag. After breaking his wrist, he held his open palm over Gab’s mouth and stepped on his right knee with his booted foot, pressing hard until Gab passed out. And then he slapped him awake. Gab thrashed weakly on the cold floor. The show of brutal force made me crouch down in fear, wrapping my arms around myself. The stranger stood up, drawing back from Gab. One other of the men appeared at the start of the alley, evidently curious as to what his buddy was up to. Perhaps to see if he was done fucking me –

"I'm fine, Dane, I just need a minute to catch my breath," she grumbled. "I know. You have your minute now," I said and placed her on a side couch. Kneeling in front of her to take off her clothes: her cloak and then her fitted pants were the first to go. Making her perch on the edge of the leather couch. I started to unbutton her inner garb until there was nothing beneath but her naked skin. Once the front flaps were free, I parted them up to reveal her naked breasts and gently stroked the back of my hand against her swollen buds. I fought an inner battle to resist her but damn it, she was beautiful. The need to taste her made me lick my lips. Saraya's breathing grew more audible and I raised hooded eyes to meet hers. She reached under my Pteruges to frantically free my shaft. I leaned forward to cup her delicate chin and took her lips. The soft feel made me groan. Her hands stroking and pumping my dick made me quiver. She wrapped her legs around me so as to draw me closer to
I saw for about 20,000 feet above ground level the fucking witch draining my woman of her essence. She just would not stop compiling her sins against me. Increasing my speed with all the fury in me, I swatted the witches in my way to get to her and wrapped my fingers around her throat. Lifting the bitch from the ground and assuming my true form with horns and all, I snarled close to her face, "What did I say would happen when I see you face to face, witch?" She croaked and fear flashed in her eyes for about a second and then she grinned, "Why are you so mad, Lycan prince? Is it because I bested you and succeeded in making a fool of you? I know your type. Your pride and arrogance are as big as the sky. You can not bare to think a mere mortal like me could outwit you! Fucking bastard!" she spat and I caught her hand movement as she tried to conjure something to use against me and I let her since it appeared she was a moron. She jerked and aimed for my gut with a sharp knife dri
"Anastasios!" Zeus thundered. I heard a movement from my right and then Zeus added, "get him out of my sight!" "Yes," Anastasios Martas said and he called out to Raedwulf Lykaon. And then I felt lifted from the floor. Wanting to walk out with at least a little fucking dignity, I pushed the two away once they helped me up to my feet and started to walk towards the door. I was in excruciating pain but was determined to walk out of that bloody door by myself. And once I was out in the corridor, I fell hard to my knees and slumped. Anastasios Martas and Raedwulf Lykaon rushed to pick me up. "You are so fucking stubborn!" Anastasios Martas growled. "Now I know why he was so relentless. You two are so much alike," he added. "Get me outta here!" I said in a drawl. 'Not in this state you need to heal!' Anastasios Martas retorted. Grabbing him by the throat, I snarled, "Get me out of this goddamn place!" "You are unbelievable, Dane!" Anastasios Martas said in utter frustration. I f
"If I may say something … father," Anastasios Martas said, stepping forward as the guards surrounded us. The guardians stood with me in the circle and totally refused to move. "Don't tell me you want to speak in his defense?" Zeus said, giving him a cold stare. "Not a defense per se, but a report …" he said. Zeus sat back. Tabitha and Keanu looked crestfallen. Serene and Hekate rushed to pick the two up and murmured something to them that assuaged them. Serene held on to Keanu while Hekate carried Tabitha. They then turned to watch Anastasios Martas as he continued to speak. Again, I had a feeling that this was planned. "I'm certain Zeus is aware of the conflict caused by the witch who stole mother's weapon of war using one of Hekate's children as a shield. She used that power to commit a lot of atrocities and also enslave Adrastea Orion, Veniamin Tantalatos, Theseus Vlahatos, Yorgos Petras, Christodoulos Angelopoulos, Giannis Macratos, Panos Stavropoulos, Marios Totopoulos, Mi
