The Attic

I had never been to the attic before. When I first arrived, I had seen the dusted-over window but never thought twice about the room above the house. When we entered through a staircase that fell from the second floor’s ceiling, all that met us was the distinct smell of dust and the smell of an old house. There was nothing up here except a few boxes and space. The walls weren’t finished, and the giant circle window that took up most of the entire wall was dusted so severely that you couldn’t see outside.
My mom made her way to a podium off the side while we all climbed in. My mom said nothing as she put a giant book on the podium. With her back turned to us, she raised her delicate hand and snapped her fingers, the sound ringing in the silence of the attic. In an instant, everything changed. I had to rub my eyes to make sure I was seeing clearly. The room was still empty, but the dust was gone, with a lingering lavender scent. Unlit white candl

KamariWhen the ceremony began, I was nervous but found strength in Theron's eyes - my mate's eyes. My heart leaped at the notion. While everyone drew closer and my mom began her chants, all I could think about was every look we stole from each other these past few months. The brushing of fingers, the little stolen moments under the moon or in his car, feeling his eyes on me from behind a tree by the farm, our reoccurring dreams showing us the future, the ache in his absence. Our connection and the pull that drove us despite our pushback all made sense now.I held his eyes, seeing all his love for me in them, as I sensed a familiar sensation rising to meet me. Our bond was my rock and what I held to now. I knew it would hurt so much more than yesterday; I didn't know how to react. For my loved ones, I would bear the pain and not show it for as long as possible. I didn't want them to know how much I was hurting.The pain of the whirling smoke around me was a welc

TheronThe minute Kamari screamed, something in me broke. The blinding light blew us all away, breaking the circle and throwing us to the sides of the room. When I finally adjusted my eyes, Kamari was suspended in the air, screaming and withering against the invisible force holding her. A sudden sharp pain ripped into me, and I knew it was Kamari's pain. It was so much worse than I thought it would be. She was being pulled apart; I could feel it in my soul."She's an elemental," I heard Ms. Ostyn whisper to herself, eyes wide in a surprised and awe-filled expression. I didn't know what an elemental was, but I didn't see the awe of it, only the terror. She couldn't feel the pain like I could; it was consuming her. I ran towards her; I had to get to her to stop it from destroying her. Ms. Ostyn bellowed something behind me, but I didn't hear it. I suddenly froze in place, unable to work my limbs. I couldn't move; the Ostyn witch had thrown a containment spell on me.

ari...mari....kamari...Kamari...It was a whisper, something fuzzy in the back of my mind. I was dreaming. The voice in my head was female, raspy yet soft. It was familiar yet not.H...hello...Who’s there? I whispered back into the abyss of my mind.Thank the goddess. I thought I had lost you, Kamari. The female voice huffed into my mind. My eyes were closed, and I Couldn’t feel my body. I must have been sleeping, and this was a dream. It felt more real than a dream, though.Who are you? I asked again, more forceful this time.I needed to know who was invading my mind before I spoke more.I’m not invading your mind, Kamari; it’s where I live. My name is Tala; I am your wolf. It’s been a long time since I’ve felt you. You can read my thoughts?Yes, your thoughts are my thoughts, just as you can hear mine, too. We are one, you

He grabbed the back of my head and tugged on my hair to lift my face, barring my throat to him. He kissed my throat, nibbling it and licking up my neck to my ear, nipping my earlobe. I shuddered under his touch. I yanked at his pants, ripping the button off with strength I didn’t know I had, pulling his pants down, then his underwear. His arousal sprang out, slapping his stomach. My mouth watered at seeing it. He tore my clothes off; claws had formed on his hands as he ripped my clothes to shreds. Fully naked, he grabbed my leg and lifted it over one of his arms before climbing in between my legs.He released my throat from his mouth and looked down at me, stalling before going any further. He looked deeply into my eyes, and I saw Hoku through them. It was the final strand between us, the last piece between mates, and a question. Tala and I knew we wanted him before he even had to voice it."Please, Theron, we need you." we whispered into his ear before nibbling

NayaI picked up Lana last for the game since her house was closest to campus. Dani sat in the passenger seat of my jeep, looking out the window. We were all silent, staring out in deep thought. None of us knew what to say; I knew I was at a loss for words. What we witnessed last night was...scary. I had never felt so much magic in one place before. The way Kamari screamed...I knew she had died. I could hear her heart stop. There was such a defining silence by the whole room when that happened. The goddess must have heard my plea because her heart began beating again after a strike hit her from inside.I had never heard of a witch-werewolf hybrid, so I wasn’t sure what to expect. I was scared for Kamari, but an instinctual piece of me also became scared of her. She had the strength of a wolf, a powerful wolf if I could feel her right, plus the added power of her witch magic made her unstoppable. Her two powers were at war, each trying to dominate the other.

Kamari I felt alive. I buzzed and hummed with nature, flowing with a power no one else could feel but me. My steps were light, and my body felt like it could fly, electricity tingling under my skin as I watched the girls gaze at me in awe and with a slight hint of fear. It was strange to have that feeling passed to me. I was always just a human girl, an insecure one at that. The new emotions were complex to control. I could hear their hushed whispers with my new wolf ears. Future Luna... How is Olivia taking it?... She has a wolf... Holy hell, she is powerful; can you feel it? What it would mean by Theron marking me hadn’t occurred to me. I didn’t know how I felt about being called Luna; being a leader wasn’t something I had ever aspired to be. Tala was on the brink of exploding from all the changing emotions when my eyes locked on Naya standing behind Soiree. I walked through the squad, staring at me, and immediately wrapped my arms around Naya. She stille

KamariThe snarl beside Theron made me pause. It was ferocious and feral. I turned to see who had made the sound when Reed took a step past Theron, his eyes filled with rage and death.“Mate,” He declared to no one in particular. I saw he was looking directly at Sera in her wolf form. My eyes widened; could it be true? I looked back to Reed right as Theron went to grab Reed’s shoulder.“Reed, don’t-” but it was too late; Reed immediately shifted into his massive wolf. He bared his teeth, growling at the Raven witches and anyone stupid enough to get in between him and his mate, stuck in a cage on the opposite side of the field. The witches thankfully stepped back in fear at the colossal wolf stalking them. The Raven by the cage jumped down and yelled at the witches to hold their stances. I looked back at Sera, whimpering in the cage, and my emotions flared. They were holding her hostage. A snarl left my lips as it dawned on me

KamariMy plan was a gamble. I hoped I had read the Raven witch enough to know this would get her reaction. She always seemed to have the upper hand and the arrogance. She had said she was coming for me, but for what? Seeing Sera now, I knew. She wanted me to react and fight so she could kill me. So I baited right back, hoping my claim to kill her first would push her over the edge. My plan worked too well. Nothing seemed to happen when the dark cloud consumed us until I saw everyone still in their human forms. Then Hoku and Arkyn launched forward into battle, and my heart quickened. They were going in solo.“Starlight!!! Battle formations!” Mz. Swan yelled from behind. As one unit, the squad gathered around me into position and unsheathed their swords. We twirled them once and landed in an offensive battle position. HA! We screamed together. Mz. Swan stood in front with her sword drawn. She looked back at us once, gave us a slight nod, and then ran toward

Under the Blue Cold Moon Epilogue: A Conduit
The light of the day as it cascaded through the cave made her head pound more. She hated the sight. Spring was her least favorite season. All full of flowers and sunshine; it made her sick. Sitting on the cold, damp earth at least helped her find her bearings. She was still gathering her strength and her senses from when she teleported. It was a gamble; she had never done it before. She was only taught the spell in case she ever needed it in dire circumstances. Well, her daughter betraying her felt like a damn dire circumstance, one she would rectify once her strength came back to her. That girl was foolish to side with the weaker of her two sides. Her fathers blood would never overcome her Raven powers. Her daughters father... Zander. The name alone caused more pain in her chest than she felt like considering at the moment. She didn't even know she could feel such emotions anymore. Not since the first summoning all those years ago. Even her own mother's death didn't hurt quite like t
Under the Blue Cold Moon Double Date
“Wait, what? Why?” With her now being a werewolf, we had discussed her staying here with the pack and her mate.“It won’t be long. I’ll be gone and back again within the month. I just need to settle everything with school and pack my things from my apartment to move here. Plus, I’d like to give my dad a heads-up. He’s been texting me worried since I haven’t gone to see him recently.” Sera’s dad was the only family she had left. Her mom had died giving birth to her, leaving her dad to raise her solo. I nodded my agreement.“I’m going with her,” Reed announced; I had expected him to want to go with her. Theron came and sat by my side, taking my hand in his while swirling his thumb inside my palm. I leaned into his warmth, laying my head against his shoulder."Are you sure you’re up for it, Reed?" Theron eyed his friend. I looked up at him. My expression must have shown the confusion I felt because Theron smiled before explaining.“With the Desert pack going silent with no word, I’m worr
Under the Blue Cold Moon Where Will you Go?
As the morning sun rose, the birds chirped their morning song, signaling that the crisp, freezing winter was ending and spring was waking up. It had been two months since the battle of clans, with the pack busy repairing the town and healing its injured. Moriko sat outside on the porch in his white cat form, staring at the field that once held a great battle.I sat beside him, scratching behind his ear like an old habit, earning a purr from him. We sat silently for a moment, gazing at the peaceful morning sunrise. In the corner of my eye, I could still make out the black patch of ash that was Morana. It never lifted from the earth, like a scar.“Where will you go next?” I asked to break the silence.“I must return home to the Ostyn Clan headquarters. There is much to do and arrange now that the power has shifted to a new priestess, and the curse has broken. I am needed there to protect your mother.” Moriko had sadness in his voice; he had walked beside my grandmother for decades, ands

KamariShe was okay; she was bleeding, but Mother was going to be okay. I nuzzled her, overjoyed to see her again, letting loose some healing magic to knit Mom’s side up. Only she didn’t need my magic; she was already healing fast, which was new. She wrapped her arms around my neck and hugged me.“I knew you’d come, just in the nick of time, too.” She whispered to me. I nuzzled further into her, needing to feel her warmth and know she was okay. The sound of her scream before would haunt my dreams for days. I felt movement behind me; I turned out of my mother’s arms and moved protectively in front of her, watching Morana stand off with Verena.“Get out of the way, you stupid child!” Morana screamed at Verena’s wolf. The wolf held her ground, huffing air out of her snout.“What are you doing?! You’d choose them!? The ones that killed your father!?” a single tear escaped Morana’s eye as she spoke about Zander.“I’m doing this for you! So you can rule! Now get out of the way!!” The markin
Under the Blue Cold Moon Choosing Sides
KamariI was the wind and earth, I was lightning and fire. I ran into the fray with full abandon. I let the bond guide me to where Theron was fighting my Father. Snow stung my eyes as I dashed through the blizzard. As I ran toward him, I saw wolves stop to watch me run past them. They paused and stared before going back at it, battling the Phantom warriors and the animals of the forest that had joined the fight.A few light-colored wolves dared to run at me. I unleashed my fire on them in my wolf form, allowing Tala to mix her power with my Ostyn blood. Fire clashed with ice, creating water in my eyes from the raging snowstorm, and I lost track of what was real and what was magic. It almost looked like my magic formed through Tala as a bird of fire, tearing into the wolves as we fought with teeth and claws. A mountain lion leaped on the remaining wolf, fighting him off and giving me time to go to my mate.I still wasn’t 100 percent sure how I did it. I was running through the forest w
Under the Blue Cold Moon The White Wolf
TheronDo you have any last words, pup? Zander spoke triumphantly into my head with death in his eyes. I mentally pushed on the bind the Raven had on me, trying with all my might to get free. She began to sweat with the pressure, but the bind held firm. Zander took a step closer than another. I moved my eyes to see the remaining warriors of our pack fighting viciously outnumbered but standing their ground.A wolf got through the Cadre’s barrier and slashed Dani down her side. She howled in pain, her blood staining the white snow beneath. Rune shot out off the ground, shifting in the air and throwing his wolf form at the wolf to get him away from his mate.It opened a hole in the barrier big enough for several enemy wolves and a few witches to break free and run towards the house. That was when the cat jumped through the busted door, attacking anyone near the opening. Alpha Zander had shifted back into his human form, unafraid of the vulnerability it put him in, and wrapped his hands ar
Under the Blue Cold Moon The Last Stand
ReedIt was a fucking slaughterhouse. We were outnumbered three to one at least, and with everyone battling for the past several days, we were exhausted. The snow didn’t help either; it kept getting in our eyes, watering our vision, and making it hard to keep the focus on our opponent. Zander planned and executed this well. We would need a miracle to win this war. I swiped and killed mercilessly at the Desert Pack. From what I knew of the slave traders, they deserved nothing less.Where is he? Rune asked in my head. I looked to see him step up beside me in his human form with two broad swords. Rune had always enjoyed fighting with swords in battle and would often switch off between his wolf and warrior form “to ease the tension for both forms,” he had said. Rune was one of our most formidable warriors because he was so good in both forms and enjoyed both sides, sometimes a little too much. Where I would fight out of necessity, Rune fought for
Under the Blue Cold Moon With Respect
ReedI stood staring at Ms. O as she worked her magic on Theron. At first, nothing happened. fear coursed up my spine when I saw the look on Ms. O’s face. She couldn’t hide the terror and sadness in her eyes. I couldn’t make out his heartbeat or even feel his presence for a split second. I dropped to my knees in shock, sitting there, helpless, beside his bed. This wasn’t happening, this couldn’t-Slowly, I saw Theron’s skin turn from ash to golden brown, and his breathing grew steadily. Without thinking, I burst out in laughter, a tear sliding down my cheek. My joy was short-lived when I heard slamming and hissing outside the room. Ms. O and I both looked at the door at the exact moment. I became alert immediately when Arkyn pushed to get out. He had been reeling the past few days, needing to fight and protect the pack battling outside these walls.“I’ll protect him. Go! Help them, save her, please.” The last

Izabele“NOOOOO! You can’t! You can’t sacrifice yourself like this!” I raged while I slammed my fist into the door that wouldn’t open. Whether it was her or the house that locked me in, I didn’t know, and I didn’t care; I was mad at both of them. I bellowed at the door, trying to claw my way out when someone interrupted me.“Umm, Ms. O...Ms. O? MS. O!” I turned to look at him with tear-stained eyes. He took a step back with his hands up, smart boy.“From the feel of her power, I-uh, think she can handle one witch, right? And-”“NO, she cannot. The High Priestess’s power comes not from fighting or battle spells but from healing. She is our greatest healer and greatest seer. She can see...She can see...she saw this. She insisted she came with me when I said I was coming here. She knew...” I trailed off, not wanting to say what I knew was coming next. Her words from a few day
