Thank you to everyone who has so far followed along with Euan and Juniper. Updates will be a little slow because I'm currently in school working on a Master's degree. I'm also a single mama who works full-time, so please, stick with me! Thank you all for the love and support of my books.
(Juniper’s P.O.V) After the dust settles from the fight with the rogues, Euan and I accompany his parents back to their house. What did you do, Covey? What do you mean? With the howling and the water? What was that about? It’s one of our…gifts. Gifts? What do you mean? Look, cupcake, I can’t tell you. I’m not allowed to, but what I CAN say is that you need to practice your singing. And allow your Siren to come out. She’s being a bitch about sharing space with me when you won’t let her out. A wave of embarrassment washes over me when I realize that Coventina is right, I haven’t let my Siren out…ever. “Euan, I need to let my Siren out. Can we go to our lake?” I ask, turning towards him as we walk up the driveway to the house. “Right now?” “Yes,” I say. I couldn’t understand the sudden urge to shift into her, she’s been unsettled for some time, and I know that having to share space with Coventina is probably annoying, but I’ve been able to
(Julian’s P.O.V) Her wolf looked ethereal when it was glowing with the blue light surrounding her, her howling like a song calling on the Moon Goddess. That’s when I heard the water rushing and the howls and snarls of our warriors. We had crashed her shifting party, knowing this would be the perfect opportunity to grab her. What we hadn’t counted on was her being mated to the future Alpha King of Màni. That was not in the report from our spies, they hadn’t done their jobs right even with the help of Beatrix When Teresa, the leader of the rogue werebears, mentioned her in my room just a few weeks ago, I wasn’t prepared for the sight that greeted me. It was like a horror movie with a mix of Tim Burton’s claymation movie thrown in. She looked like Sally from Nightmare Before Christmas, like her body had been stitched together. Her skin was sickly sallow in color, almost yellow. “How did you survive?” That was the first question out of my mouth when I
(Euan’s P.O.V) I woke up to Juniper’s side of the bed being cold. Sitting bolt upright I tore through my room and bathroom then the rest of the house. Little blossom? Where are you? I call through the mind link. There was no answer. I roared out, waking the entire house and the pack. “What the hell is going on?” My mother shouts. “Juniper is gone!” I shout back. Warriors, to your Alpha’s home! Juniper is missing! My father says through mind link. “Killian and Florence need to be told.” My dad’s eyes glaze over, mind linking with Killian and probably Cormac to get them to the house too. I hear the roar of a pissed-off Royal Beta coming from within the pack grounds. The warriors had gathered in our driveway as Titan, Killian’s wolf, came through the crowd. “I know Titan, we’ll find her.” My dad says to him. Dad instructs the warriors to comb through the pack territory, to follow any hint of her scent. “I’m going to our lake; she
(Luna Queen Morrigan’s P.O.V) All I could hear was my son screaming in agony, as his father and the warriors that went to search for Juniper carried him back to the house. ““What is going on? What’s happening?” I shriek, my face showing my horror as my pup screams in agony. “We don’t know. We were at the lake that Euan and Juniper frequented when all of a sudden, he crumpled to the floor.” Rian says, desperation lacing his tone. Something is wrong with our pup. My wolf, Winter whimpers in my head. What is going on with him? Do you know? I question. We need to contact Alstin. He’ll know. I sprint to the office, my son’s howls of pain chasing me up the stairs. I burst through the door and dial my cousin’s number. “Hey Morrigan, what’s going on?” He asks worriedly. “Something is wrong with Euan. Please come here. Now.” I shout, hysterically. I hang up the phone knowing that he could teleport directly to me in a matter of seconds. “Mom, what’
(Juniper’s P.O.V) Pain. That’s all I felt coursing through my body, time seemed to stand still while I was trapped in my body, but now…now I’m floating in the black. I can’t hear Coventina or even feel her. I can’t feel my Siren either. “Well, this sucks ass.” I mutter to myself, unable to refrain from keeping my mouth shut. My words echoed around me before they tapered off into nothingness. “It would suck less if you just gave in to the pain.” A voice said. I couldn’t help the scream that escaped my lips, and when I looked around me, I couldn’t see anyone. “Who’s there? And where am I?” I shout, hearing the nervousness in my voice made me cringe. “In my playground.” The voice chuckled. “Are you going to tell me who you are?” “Hmm, not sure that I want to. No one ever appreciates my presence. Well, Morrigan did, but no one else has.” The voice said with a noticeable pout to the tone. “You know my aunt? Please, just tell me who you are and ho
(Euan’s P.O.V) The pain was unbearable, and I wanted to claw myself out of my skin. I didn’t know what was happening, I just knew that I needed to get to Junie, to my little blossom. “How much longer is he going to be out for?” I hear someone ask. Hmm, that sounds like mom…I think. “He should be coming around soon.” A male voice I didn’t recognize right away answered. My eyes shoot open and the light blinds me, making my head throb. I groan, close my eyes, and rollover. I’m not on the ground anymore, last I remembered I was on the ground by mine and Junie’s lake. I’m in bed…my bed. “The light’s off, honey.” I hear my mother whisper. I slowly open my eyes, it’s darker but not pitch black like that void was. Something doesn’t feel right though. “Mom?” I croak. “Oh, honey.” She sobs as she comes over to me and hugs me to her. I groan in pain; my body feels like it just went 10 rounds in the ring with a heavyweight champion. She re
(Juniper’s P.O.V) My head was pounding, and my body felt like it had been run over by a train. “She should be coming around now, make sure the lights are off. Her eyes will be sensitive to light.” A rasping voice said. I could hear the click of a light switch, meaning someone had followed this person’s instructions. I tried to open my eyes or move my body, but it just caused me to groan in pain. Then I felt it, the hollow feeling in my chest that something was missing. Fuck. The Moon Goddess and the water Goddess, Coventina, had been right. My mate bond was gone. Covey, you there? I reached out to my wolf. All I got back in response was a whimper of pain and loss. “Wake up, little Siren.” A husky, male voice said. I recognized him, it was that tiger shifter from the woods. I groaned out again, this time not in pain but in annoyance. Great, I was kidnapped, my mate bond was gone, and I’m stuck with crazy cat dude. Awesome. “What
(Luna Queen Morrigan’s P.O.V) It had been two weeks since Juniper was taken, and Beatrix had broken their bond making Euan just a shell of himself. He hadn’t been the same, he was like a walking zombie and if he wasn’t numb to everything, he was metaphorically ripping the heads off of our pack members and subjects. There were several times we had to sedate him and Dakota because he was flying off the handle. My cousin, Alstin, and my Uncle Albrun were working hard trying to locate the rogue camp in the Rogue Lands. My brother-in-law Lysander was doing everything he could to find the rogue necromancer, Agitha, who brought Beatrix back to life. Both searches weren’t going well; the Rogue Lands were cloaked with dark magic, and no one was willing to talk about Ganon and his possible students. Lysander didn’t want to have to use extreme measures, but it was getting to that point. Rian was just as lost in this as I was, there was really nothing we could do to help ou
I know it has been a while since I've updated this book, however; I've been going through a really difficult time personally between family stuff and medical stuff. I've also been dealing with a really bad case of writer's block. I've been slowly getting back into writing this book so I promise I am working on it! I just don't want to give you a substandard book. I'm going to post all chapters once it's completed. Thanks for sticking with me readers! I appreciate your time and patience, and once again I will upload all chapters once the book is complete. --Sydney
(Euan’s P.O.V) Plans had been set, and everything was ready to go when the sound of a gong rang throughout the pack.“Oh, goody! He made it!” My mom squeals running out of the house and towards the woods.“What the hell?” I ask, turning to my dad.“Just wait, son.” He chuckles. After several minutes, Mom comes walking back into the house, hanging on the arm of one big-ass dude. I mean, I’m tall but this guy is at least 7 feet tall! I hear my dad growl in the back of his throat.“Oh, hush your mouth, Rian! You know that Tiernan is mated and has pups!” So, this was the demigod, Alpha Tiernan.“Still don’t like it.” Dad grumbles, acting like a petulant four-year-old.“Alpha King Rian, a pleasure as always.” Tiernan chuckles, but it sounds like booming thunder.Mom, why is he so huge? I mind link to her.Euan, that’s rude! But, if you must know that during his battle in Annwn, he unlocked his demigod powers, and his growth was a result of that. Now, qui
(Juniper’s P.O.V) I couldn’t keep this up, my body is going to give up on me at some point, right? Not even a supernatural demigoddess could continue to survive if they continue their sick games. It’s been a week since they figured out that if they push my body and mind to the limit my demigoddess powers will automatically come forward. Even though Julian wanted to take me as his mate, he didn’t stop Nial and the rest of the rogues here from beating me and raping me to get me to unleash my powers. It also didn’t take me long to figure out that something was coming, something either good or bad—I couldn’t tell—when Beatrix saw what the rogues were doing to me. The rogue’s teeth dig into my skin, making me scream out in pain. This has to end. My Siren hisses. By all means, please put me out of my misery. I snap back. Coventina is still with the Goddesses in the Celestial realm, and I have no idea when or if she will be back. I just wanted to give up, I had co
(King Lysander’s P.O.V) Looking through the scrolls and tomes of ancient magic here in the palace of Eferhile. Winnie’s brother, King Bayard, and his wife, Constance, are helping Winnie and I comb through everything. “What are we even looking for Lysander?” Bayard asks, sounding frustrated and exhausted. “We’ve been at this for hours and we haven’t found anything.” Winnie sighs. “Bayard, anything that is a combination spell that includes cloaking,” I mutter. I’m looking over a tome of ancient spell caster magic, leave it to the Fae to have all this information. As I’m gently turning the page, something catches my eye. It’s a spell in ancient Gaelic, folaigh agus ní fheiceàil, which roughly translates to “hide and not see”. “I think I found it.” I shout. Everyone comes rushing over to me, looking over my shoulder. “What does it mean?” Constance asks. “It’s not only a cloaking spell to conceal something but also a cloaking spell for magic. So
(Euan’s P.O.V) The Ever-Reaching Mountains were the one place we never considered because it was nearly uninhabitable for anyone, including shifters. Brenna’s eyes shift nervously between me, my father, and her mates. “The Ever-Reaching Mountains? How are you able to live there?” My father questions. “Well, the base of the mountains isn't too bad. When you get further up the mountains, the weather and elevation become too much.” The door is thrown open and in storms Killian. “Where the fuck is my daughter dragon!?” He shouts, getting into Brenna’s face. She screams in fear and folds in on herself as best she could, different shades of green dragon scales begin to show up on her skin. She’s about to shift…to protect herself. “DAD! ENOUGH! LEAVE OUR MATE ALONE!” Both twins shout, their auras slamming into everyone. Killian’s head snaps up, his eyes wide with shock. “What?” He whispers. “Brenna is our mate, and she came here at gre
***TRIGGER WARNING***(Juniper’s P.O.V) The whipping seems to go on and on, I can feel the stickiness of my blood flowing down my back and down my ribs. My throat feels like the Sahara, dry and cracked because of all my screaming.“Now, little bird, for the main event.”What does that mean? I think to myself. That’s when I hear the clinking of his belt buckle and the zip of his pants. Now I know what he means by the main event. I thought I was too dehydrated to produce any more tears, but my body proves me wrong, as I feel tears stream down my cheeks. After this is all said and done, Euan won’t want me anymore.Remember what the Goddesses said, they are protecting your mate bond with Euan, and you know damn well that Euan loves you beyond the love of the mate bond. My Siren says. I internally nod my head to her, not really believing her but that was the only happy thought that could keep me out of my own body. I feel Julian’s hot breath on my core,
***TRIGGER WARNING***(Juniper’s P.O.V) The door to my “prison” opens up and in walks Julian, the kitty cat shifter that has made it his mission for me to submit to him and become his mate. Coventina is still missing, and it’s been months…or at least that’s what it feels like. Time has become my enemy here because I don’t even know what day it is or how much time has passed since I was kidnapped.“Hello, mate,” Julian says as he walks into the room. A woman follows closely behind him with a tray in her hands, the smell of bacon and pancakes reaches my nose. I had to hold back a moan because it smelt so good. It’s not like they had been starving me but I could tell that something was off with the taste of the food, so I tried to hold out as long as I could when it came to eating.“Are you going to eat this morning?” He asks as the woman places the tray on the bed. I lift my lip in a snarl and a low hiss comes through my mouth.“There’s my beautiful S

(Juniper’s P.O.V) My head was pounding, and my body felt like it had been run over by a train. “She should be coming around now, make sure the lights are off. Her eyes will be sensitive to light.” A rasping voice said. I could hear the click of a light switch, meaning someone had followed this person’s instructions. I tried to open my eyes or move my body, but it just caused me to groan in pain. Then I felt it, the hollow feeling in my chest that something was missing. Fuck. The Moon Goddess and the water Goddess, Coventina, had been right. My mate bond was gone. Covey, you there? I reached out to my wolf.
