Twin Alphas' Celestial Luna Chapter Forty-Seven
Zander’s POVFollowing my brother and his captors had been a snap decision. I’m not even sure what I had hoped to achieve, there is only so far I can follow them in their boats then I’ll be stood on the side of a mountain with nothing to show for my little adventure. I think I just needed to feel like I was doing something, anything other than watch them sail away with a part of me. I was several miles out of our territory before I even realised what I was doing and that I had shut out all of the noise and chatter of the mind link.I know I should at least let Liberty know where I am, but at the risk of sounding like nothing but a hypocrite, I decided to keep my mouth and my mind shut until I have something of significance to tell her. I know she is okay, I can feel our connection strumming away in the background the way I always do, like static in my soul.I followed the insurgent forces at a distance, never letting their sails out of my sight, as they retreated down the coast. Their

Christian’s POV“Take him through to the back.” A gruff voice commands in the darkness.“It’s him...... they got an Alpha..... the pack will come for us now.... that’s the idea....” whispered voices seem to echo around me. I can hear everything but see nothing, I’m aware of my body but it’s like it is no longer attached to my mind, when I try to move it doesn’t respond. I’m paralysed, helpless and way out of my depth.I used to be quick to anger and everyone told me it would land me in trouble. It’s funny how love, rather than anger, has landed me in it up to my neck. I just had to get out of there, if I hadn’t I would have done something that I honestly don’t think I would regret for any reason other than hurting Liberty. The Goddess and fates have given her another mate, it can only mean my brother an I are lacking. I have never truly felt like I deserve her, but this is proof that the niggling voice in the deep, dark recesses of my mind was right.I watched the witch throw her dagg

Gabe’s POV“Gabe, you’re okay, don’t try to move.” Lottie’s gentle voice soothes my initial panic.The last thing I remember was pain. So much pain I was sure I would never hear her sweet voice again.I just had the weirdest dream, although, truth be told I’m not entirely sure if it was a dream or if I ascended to the heavens and returned. I have never experienced anything like it in all my life. No dream I have ever had has felt so real yet so surreal.I remember being in the forest and finding Christian but he was stood absolutely still like he was frozen in time. The woman between the two of us turned and shouted in a language that sounds a lot like what Lottie uses when she is casting with her witch magic. She must have been a witch too. The look on her face disarmed me, it was one of remorse and guilt, whatever she was doing there was not of her own volition.I should have known better than to let my guard down, thinking back it was obvious that something was amiss, Christian’s u

Imelda’s POVI immediately recognised the dagger in Gabe as one of the thirteen I created many, many years ago. He has no idea how fortunate he is that I was there to remove it. Nuntius blades are connected to their creator and whomever they wish to receive the message inside and only they can remove it from a body. It sounds barbaric now but back when the witch hunts were at their peak they became a life line for so many of us.The way a Nuntius blade works is simple but effective. Not every witch has the necessary powers to create such an intricate and complex tool and as far as I’m aware there were only a handful of us, from the most powerful covens, who successfully used them.How one of my blades ended up in the hands of the Kutkatasina is beyond me, but what troubles me more is that the witches who used it were capable of manipulating my magic and moulding the dagger into something else entirely.There can only be one explanation. The Katasan witches are from one of my covens, d

Marcel’s POVThe phrase ‘you don’t know what you’ve got till it’s gone’ comes to mind as we make our way back towards Pine Lake at a snails pace. I have always been fast, even for a Vampyre. Training and patrolling with the pack has been interesting, they aren’t as quick as I am but their endurance more than makes up for it. Travelling with these women is slow and frustrating. I know they can’t help it and I could run ahead and be back with Liberty in no time at all. It is at times like this that I really appreciate my genetic advantages.Nobody back home has any idea where we are. They don’t know we have Christian or that Zander and I are out here together. The witches insist that there are Katasan all the way up and down the coast in both directions and the only way back is through the mountain range. Fortunately we are passing through one of the narrowest areas and the valley is wide and as even as one could hope for. There are boulders in our path and an occasional fallen tree to

Uriel’s POVIt’s absolutely pissing down with rain and I can’t recall a time I have ever been so soaked or bloody miserable. No, that’s a lie, there is one time that surpasses any shit situation I could ever find myself in. Ever since we took in the women from Pine Ridge I have had a hollow ache in my chest. For the first few days it didn’t really bother me but as it grew it bothered me more and more. My wolf began pining for Amaya with no explanation as to why. We learned to live with our loss years ago, why did the pain feel so fresh again? I think seeing what became of these women really drove home what her fate could have been.When Vitandi came to me and told me it was time to go I hadn’t completely made up my mind about whether or not I would join him. In the heat of the moment I grabbed the picture of Amaya, tucked it into the thigh pocket of combats and left. I didn’t know if I would be returning, and honestly, I didn’t care any more. Vitandi has been talking about a first str

Chapter Fifty-ThreeAverson’s POV When Vitandi approached me with his plan, all of the anger I have been pushing down for years came bubbling back to the surface. I told myself that hating the Katasan, everything they stand for and what they did to me, would do nothing but make me bitter, so I bottled it up. I tried to get on with life as best I could, and told myself I wouldn’t let them take any more of my life from me.My world ruptured when Imelda told me my mate had died and my son was missing, but I pushed through the heartache and grief and told myself that one day the Katasan would pay for the years they stole and the loss of my family. Some days I let out a little bit of that pent up rage, like opening a faucet, it was the only thing that got me through the hardest times.I never really believed I would be able to punish them the way I wanted, I am only one man, so when a dragon and one of the Betas of the most notorious warrior pack asked me to join them, I didn’t need much

Liberty’s POVThere was a frosty look on Imelda’s face when I showed her the necklace Marcel gave me. She tried to hide it but I could see and feel all kinds of pissed off pawing to get out of her. I’m not as naive as I once was and know beyond doubt that a can of worms has been opened.“I’m not angry with you Liberty.” The old woman takes hold of my hand as we walk towards the hospital. Sometimes I forget that I’m not the only one around here who can see beneath the surface. It’s easy to get lost in my own head or other people’s thoughts, sometimes I’m not even sure what’s real anymore.“You are angry with Marcel?” I ask.“He is one of my oldest friends, and he has been lying right to my face.” She explains in a measured tone that tells me how hard she is struggling with the betrayal. I can feel the two emotions tugging at her. Anger in her head, betrayal in her heart.“I’m sure he had his reasons Imelda. Marcel would never betray you lightly, your friendship means far too much to hi

Chapter TwoConstance’s POV With the raiding party away, a rare calmness has come over the castle. I often find myself eagerly awaiting their departure so I can let down my guard and just be. This place is the only home I have ever known. I grew up within these walls and every room, every portrait and piece of furniture is attached to a memory of my life before, though it feels less and less like my sanctuary as Halen continues to fill it with his experiments.He says we are all one clan, the vampires he creates are family and that his creations will assure our safety and our place in the world. I know he believes every word he speaks but I can not get a moments peace with them around. I am constantly on edge, waiting for one of them to go feral and kill the human pets Halen keeps around for us to feed upon. He is adamant it will not happen again, but I have quickly learned that his belief in something doesn’t make it so.The dining hall is my second favourite room and as I walk ar

Please enjoy a sneak peek of Marcel’s story, which is now available. VB xxMarcel of The Lone Mountains.A Vampyre’s story by Veronica BlackChapter OneMarcel’s POV “Open your eyes and watch, boy.” My father snarls through gritted teeth, spittle flies from his taught lips into my face. He roughly grabs the loosely tied pony tail at the back of my head and wrenches my head back, which forces me to look up and watch the carnage unfolding in front of my eyes. My jaw tightens in frustration but I bite my tongue. I hate that he calls me ‘boy’. I haven’t been a boy for over a century, but he still looks down on me as if I am dirt beneath his boot and nothing more than a juvenile inconvenience. “This... is what we are. This... is what they made us. You can not fight nature son.” He shakes my head, pulling my hair out at its roots, as he aggressively makes his point.He is not wrong about not being able to fight nature, however, we are anything but natural. He continues his speech, the s

Grace’s POV I looked out of the window just as a dozen men in leather armour jogged past. It looks like they are surrounding something but I can’t see it the middle of the protective huddle.“Something is happening.” Lena sticks her head around the door of our shared room. Of course she would be one of the first to know if something is going on, her intuition is razor sharp and she is rarely wrong.“I can see that, but it’s none of our business. We should not go meddling unless we are invited. You know that.” I tell her in warning. Alma made it abundantly clear that we are to stay out of pack business unless she tells us otherwise. I’m more than happy to heed her advice and stay well out of it. The fewer people I meet, the less likely they are to find out anything they need not know.“It is our business. I have a really strong feeling we are meant to be part of this. Whatever they have brought back is tied to us. Come on. We will just watch, from a distance if that makes you feel bett

Marcel’s POV Imelda’s room has remained untouched. Not one of us has been able to face going in there. It just hasn’t felt right, like it’s too soon to close this chapter. Part of me wants to believe she is still in there, plotting and scheming ways to make Averson suffer. She may have been more understanding of what happened and why, but causing his discomfort had become a bit of a sport to her and it kept him on his toes.On my way back from breakfast with Claudel I walked to my room, the same as I have done every day for weeks. Claudel has been talking of leaving for a little while and it seems he has decided to bid us farewell in a few days. He has had his amusement and knows our clan will be anxiously awaiting his return. He and Vitandi have been getting along surprisingly well and it wouldn’t come as a shock to discover that Vitandi will join Claudel and spend some time at our home in the Lone Mountains. There is a palpable tension between the dragon and the Alphas and a parti
Twin Alphas' Celestial Luna Chapter Sixty-Two
Lottie’s POVThere has been a sense of fragile peace and calm around here for a few days. I doubt it will last very long, it never does. It’s sad to think that at a time when we should all be enjoying every day, we are waiting for the other shoe to drop.My father is in the dog house with my brothers, they are both livid that he went off script and rained fyre down on the Katasan. He did what he set out to do, but it could have ended differently. Luckily when Christian, Zander and Marcel returned they had Alma, Grace and Lena with them. Without Grace’s healing magic Uriel would almost certainly still be in the hospital, but everyone is acting as if all is well that ends well.Speaking of Uriel, he has been happily holed up in his room with May, who we all now know to be Amaya, the mate he thought he had lost. I’m happy for him, if anyone deserves to find happiness he is right at the top of the list. Putting up with my brothers, he was due some good fortune, and Amaya has been through
Twin Alphas' Celestial Luna Chapter Sixty-One
Uriel’s POVA few of us noticed Liberty and Wendy disappearing into the woods whilst we gathered around the tables laid out for Thomas, Zachary and Imelda’s wake. Gerald was quick to his feet, signalling with a discreet nod of his head for three of the Old Guard to follow at a distance.Concern for the Luna has been spreading through the pack. She seems to have lost touch with reality ever since the night she had the pups. When I returned with Vitandi and Averson I expected to be read the riot act, punished, shamed, relieved of my command or at the very least given the dressing down I deserved from my Alphas. Fortunately for me they were otherwise occupied. By the time they had been reassured by Doc Wood that their mate and pups were remarkably in perfect health, their anger at my disobedience had dissipated.The excited tremor of success, when I debriefed the group about our mission, was short lived. Marcel had been nowhere to be seen so we began without him. It was strange holding a
Twin Alphas' Celestial Luna Chapter Sixty
Liberty’s POVI stand and watch as flames engulf the three carefully built pyres, and I feel completely numb. I can’t tell any of them how I feel or what happened when I saw Aadhya again the night I had the twins. Emotions in the pack are high, the loss of two of our warriors and Imelda has rocked the pack to it’s core.I couldn’t tell them I wasn’t coping or that I had died, no matter how briefly it might have been for them, it felt like a life time for me. Aadhya came to take me home with her and that feeling has not left me. She talked about all of the good I would be able to do on the other side, she told me my pups would be loved and cared for by the entire pack and they would never walk alone, but all I could think was that I’m not done.That is when I realised it was over. My life, everything we had been fighting for, the future I had grown to want and cherished the idea of. The pack would have to carry the burden without me. Lottie, Imelda, Esme, Hunter, Christian, Zander and
Twin Alphas' Celestial Luna Chapter Fifty-Nine
Marcel’s POVI like to think that in my long life and varied experiences, I have seen pretty much everything there is to see in this world. Since coming to Pine Lake, my belief in my own wisdom has been put into question on many occasions, as has my mastery of my emotions.Alma, Lena and Grace are another anomaly I can’t explain. Their power and knowledge rivals that of Imelda, which should not be possible, not unless they are all connected in some way, by blood or by magic. I can’t explain it and they won’t, not yet anyway. There is no denying the energy of the three of them individually, but when they come together you can feel it in the air like static electricity.By the time we reached the bunker I was certain that Alma is indeed a high priestess, and far older than her appearance portrays, and that she has taken the other two under her wing to teach them the ancient magic that has been all but forgotten. I was excited to introduce Alma and Imelda, the two of them are so similar,
Twin Alphas' Celestial Luna Chapter Fifty-Eight
Uriel’s POVPlanting the explosives is turning out to be the easiest part of this suicide mission. Getting out of this labyrinth in the next few minutes is proving harder than you might think. The whole base is like damned a maze. Every corridor is just like the previous one. There is no signage and the map is all but useless now. We have been turned around a few times, choosing to avoid oncoming soldiers rather than waste precious time fighting.“How long?” Averson calls ahead to me.I glance at my watch and know it is going to take a miracle or an act of the fates to get us out of here.“A minute and change.” I call back as I skid around the next corner, not putting on the breaks hard enough and slamming sideways on into the wall.“Move your arse.” Averson catches up, grabs me by the back of the neck and forces me forward with him. Hitting the wall at high speed stunned me for a moment but I’m alright now.The next, seemingly endless, corner we turn brings a welcome sight. There, la
