The Monsters Within
Kamari
I ran as fast as I could, barely able to feel the damp, cold earth under my feet. All I could think about was getting away from the look of shame on my mother's face and sadness on Theron's. I failed; the Goddess passed me up, and I am a disgrace to my mother and clan. At first, I thought the Goddess decided to bless me; I could feel the power radiating through me.
It zapped within my body, tingling and burning under my skin. It hurt but was manageable, and nothing compared to the feeling of the power of the earth flowing into my heart, my soul. I raised my hands to greet it, sensing the rolling storm coming to welcome me, electricity reaching through me to touch the sky. With eyes closed and arms raised I felt everything, including another's presence within that felt like an old memory, glimmering into existence. But then something changed; there was a sharp pain in the pit of my stomach. I groaned, unable to withstand the excruciating pinching sensation, swall

"Say something, anything. Please, Kamari." Theron groaned, finally breaking the silence. He held his hands out to me, a submissive pose. I smiled as I realized what he had done. He allowed me to see his innermost secret, his monster within, matching my own from tonight's ordeal. I put my hand in his, intertwining our fingers, sitting on my knees before him. We were so close I could feel his breath. I held my other hand up and lined his jaw. He took it as an invitation to graze my jaw with his hand, brushing his thumb along my bottom lip. "I think I always knew you weren't human. From the moment I first saw you, I knew there was something different about you, though I didn't know what. This makes sense." I lifted my head to stare into his eyes. He held onto my waist, holding me against him. "You...you're not...afraid?" He asked as if he was scared to know the answer. His eyes held so much compassion and tenderness in them. "No, Theron. I am not afraid." I whispered, letting him care
Under the Blue Cold Moon A Mothers Confession
Theron I held my hand against Kamari’s back. If it was to steady her or myself, though, I didn’t know. We stood there silently, letting what Ms. Ostyn had just confessed settle. Kamari not only does have powers but is also a wolf. Not just any wolf, but a rare one, if she was already there when Kamari was a baby. That is almost unheard of. I still remember when Hoku first materialized in me. I was a boy around five if I recall correctly. I remember my dad being proud that Hoku had come forth so early. A sign of a strong Alpha warrior, he had said. Kamari’s had come along as a baby?! What did it all mean? “You did what?” Kamari whispered into the wind at her mother. “Why? Why would you do such a thing? How could you?” Her voice rose as she spoke, and her body began to shake. I held her closer to steady her. “Kamari, I-” Ms. Ostyn raised her hand to touch her daughter. “NO. Don’t touch me. All this time, you’ve been lying to me. I am not only a witch but a wolf, too. My whole life,
Under the Blue Cold Moon Preparations
“Use my blood.” He said assuringly, shoulders squared and head held high. “Why would your blood matter?” I asked him, looking into his eyes. He looked into me with a tender smile, and love shone through his big green eyes. He went to say something but didn’t have to; my mom answered for him. “Because he’s your mate.” Hope shining in her eyes. *** Izabele I had the feeling for months now about the young upcoming Alpha. I was afraid of him getting close to Kamari because of what it may mean and the danger it would put her in. After seeing them together last night at her party, I knew what he was to her. Knowing he would protect my daughter with his life gave me hope. At the same time, it scared me to my bones, knowing Zander’s past with this pack and how he would react when he found out. Because he would find out, there was no hiding her or them now; their scents had merged. “I don’t know if it will work. A mate’s bond is crucial and sacred, so it has promise. It may lift it all t
Under the Blue Cold Moon Rain on the Windshield
“That’s not a cat,” Theron whispered, not taking his eyes off the creature lying lazily on me. I looked down and realized Orion was staring at Theron now, too.“What are you talking about?” I looked down at Orion.He’s right, you know. I heard a voice in my head. I jolted at the invasion. Orion jumped off my lap and sat next to me.Hello, Kamari. It is a pleasure to meet your acquaintance officially. Orion dipped his head as if in a nod. I stared at the creature speaking into my mind wide-eyed.“H-he-hello?” I spoke to him. Theron slowly inched closer to me as if the small white cat was a threat.“How… who?” I didn’t even know what to ask first.My name is Moriko; I am a shifter. But I assure you, I am not a threat…to you. The priestess sent me to watch over you and be your protector. I didn’t know what to say, so I stared
Under the Blue Cold Moon Auditions
TheronI watched my mate as she sparred with Naya in the rain. A sense of pride filled my chest as I watched the squad and team work with reckless abandon, putting everything into their training even with it pouring outside. Kamari had come so far in the little time she had started training with the squad. You’d think she had been training her whole life just by watching her. It made more sense now, knowing who her father was. Alpha warrior was in her blood, and it sang in combat.It took me less time than expected to join Kamari in the rain after our heated make out session in the car. I was so worked up that I thought I might have to please myself before getting out. Then she reminded me of the cat shifter lying lazily on her lap this morning as if it wasn’t a deadly killer. His words still rang in my head.I am showing myself to you only because you are her mate, which is necessary for her protection. I am here at a request from the high pries
Under the Blue Cold Moon Bucket List Items
IzabeleI dove into my magic all day to prepare for the inevitable tonight. Conserving and building it to almost exploding was where I needed it, and I hadn’t done it in twenty years. My mind reeled at the thoughts about Kamari and what would happen after she was unbound. I wish the high priestess were here to conduct the spell, but with the hovering sense of war over the town, we didn’t have time for her to travel here. I wouldn’t leave Kamari powerless, even if it meant I would be left vulnerable. I tested the wards around the house and put up extra protections all day while I dove into myself, ensuring I took the proper precautions. I knew Zander would be on these pack lands tomorrow; I could feel it in my bones. I needed to ensure he wouldn’t be allowed to enter the house.Kamari entered the house around midday with Naya, Dani, and Lana in tow. They were excited about something; I could tell by their high-pitched voices entering the kitchen.
Under the Blue Cold Moon The Attic
KamariI 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
Under the Blue Cold Moon Civil War
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
