(Ryker) " I don't feel so good." I said as I got in bed next to Elias who woke up because of the noise I was making before. ' what's wrong with you?' He asked. Not in a worried tone, but an irritated one. " probably a stomach bug or something, don't mind me. I'm just going to sleep it off." I replied as I started to snuggle with the pillows. Still thinking about what max had done, I couldn't help but want to vomit every time. Max found it funny though, laughing at my expense. I am never going to give him control ever again. ' maybe it was something you ate before, would you like some tea?' I shook my head at Elias's question, closing my eyes as I groaned. " I'm just going to sleep it off, hopefully I'll be better in a couple hours or so." I said and he nodded his head. It didn't help that max was teasing me, it wasn't funny at all. Sure I would have killed Sheila myself, but i wouldn't resort to eating her! That's the last thing that was on my mind. But max is a wolf so I had no
(Ryker) 'Don't talk to me.' I said to max who was trying to tell me a joke. I just didn't feel like talking to him after what he did. Even though it seems as if it wasn't bothering him one bit.' oh come on! Stop being so lame. You were once the killer of rogues, the one who thrives on fear so what's with the sudden change? I know it doesn't have anything to do with Elias.' He said as if he was trying to annoy the hell out of me, it was working of course. ' even though you said that you have changed, I know you're only pretending. Afterall I'm your other half, I can feel how desperate you are trying not to show your true colors. That's why I hate fake people, they always rub me the wrong way. You shouldn't be mad because I ate Sheila, I was starving for goddess sake.' I rolled my eyes as he continued to rant. Going on and on as if he didn't know when to shut the hell up. When I woke up this morning, Elias told me he was going to spend the day with Raina and Lilliana. Of course I mi
(Elias) ' I really want to know what I should do Raina. Should I forgive him or not?' I was confused. My feelings were getting stronger and stronger as the days goes by for Ryker and I didn't know what to do. Raina and I are currently at the tree house hanging out after I told her that I wanted to come here. " I can't tell you what to do Elias, that would only confuse you more. You should look deep within yourself to see if this is what you want or not. Only you can answer that question." I groaned at her reply and shook my head. This didn't make any sense, none of it did. ' how can I know the answer when I'm so confused? It doesn't matter if he's my mate or not, I just don't know if I should trust him or...or forgive him for what he did a-and try to move on. I can't...." I started to sob as I looked back at all the things I've been through. All I wanted was love, I wanted a family dammit! Was that too much to ask for? What wrong have I done to be treated like this? Life is not fa
(Elias)After spending some time with Raina, Lilliana and Samuel, I met up with Brendan and Bryan who wanted to show me around the pack land. saying there were some other things they wanted me to see. It was fun while it lasted, I've never felt so free before. But knowing what was waiting for me, had me worried it will all be over soon. I had Raina teleported me back to my room, because I had to talk to Ryker about something important. It's was best not to delay it any further, because I wanted to be able to spend the rest of my life free of any guilt I've been harboring ever since I got kicked out of my pack by my parents. I decided to take a shower and change into something clean since I've been doing a lot of stuff back at the shadow stone pack which somehow had became my safe haven. Those were the people who really cared about me, they weren't fake and that's what I like about them. But, something was missing. Knowing that I was a warlock without power made me feel like apart o
(Ryker) " you can't be serious!" I shouted, not believing what he was saying. He only stared at me with a blank expression on his face, as if challenging me to try and stop him. I shook my head while standing up, as I began to pace because I didn't know what to do anymore. " I'm finally able to settle down and start a relationship with my mate after so long and this is what you're telling me? What you told me before now, was it all a lie? Was it a way of getting me to be soft so that I can let you do this?" I asked even though I didn't believe that was his intention. ' no Ryker that's not it at all. My parents must know something about my powers and how I can get it back. Plus I won't go alone, I'll have Raina there with me and I'm sure now that I've told you, you would be there as well.' He replied with a scoff before folding his arms. Damn right I'll be there. I wouldn't let him go through this without being there to comfort him. ' stop acting as if you're perfect, you wanted to
(Elias) " what are you thinking about?" Ryker asked as he was running his hand through my hair, which was both soothing and relaxing. We were both taking a bath, which was helping me with the pain after we had sex. 'What it would be like to finally be able to see my parents again, despite what they did to me." I replied honestly. I could tell he didn't like it when I talked about my parents and my past, but it's something he'd have to deal with whether he likes it or not. " I can't wait for the day when you'll be able to be free from them. You carry too much burden at such a young age baby." I grimaced when he called me baby, not sure if I like it or not. ' I have a lot of help, plus Forest is back and it seems as if he's stronger now. I hope he won't ever have to leave me again though.' That's the best part of what happened earlier. Forest coming back all because Ryker and I were having sex and he wanted to be apart of it. ' hey I was away for too long, plus my experience with R
(Elias)Over the weeks everything seemed normal so far. They held a ceremony for kai and I, making us officially a Luna of the pack. I chose that title instead of being an alpha because Ryker was already the alpha here and I felt like I was cheating fate, so I went with the Luna title. I wasn't born an alpha, so it was better that way. I was making a lot of progress here which was new. I didn't hate the dark sea pack anymore, as it became my home away from home. Today is the 7th of June and the day I was making plans with everyone here in the office on how I was going to enter my parents pack. I wanted to do this as quickly as I can so that I could get it out of the way. There was no use in dragging this out when I have better things to do with my life. Ryker on the other hand had proven to me that he really did change. Even though we were still going to therapy and getting the help we needed, he did make some changes on his own. He had stopped killing rogues and even offered some a
(Ryker) If it was any other time I would have locked Elias up so that he didn't have to do this. I could tell how stressed out he was already, the look on his face had me hesitating because I wasn't sure if we should go through with this or not. The good thing about this was that we had a lot of people here that were willing to risk their lives to protect him. Raina, Miles, Damian, Ryland, Johnathan, Andre, orian who are my warriors were all here waiting for the go ahead. What surprises Elias the most though was the fact that Lilliana, Samuel, Brendan and Bryan were also here. Lilliana told him that there was no way she would let him go through something like this without being there to support him. I watched as he cried while hugging her, getting as much comfort as he could from her." ready?" Raina asked and we all answered with a yes. She was going to teleport us to the Green Bay pack which was easier than just running there. Once we were safe there, we would find a way of talki
(Raina) I was walking around with Elias and Kat, trying to stay focused on their conversation as they tried hard to include me. But, I found myself spacing out as I recalled what had happened between Parker and I. It seems as if I was a fool, to run from him the way that I did, when I should have stayed and talked to him. Now, I was feeling a bit guilty. I bit my finger as I continued to think about him. The look on his face right before I teleported would forever be etched into my memory. “I'm such a bad mate.” I said out of nowhere, putting a pause on the conversation between Elias and Kat, I had no idea what they were talking about, so to me, it wasn't that important. “What? What did you do?” Elias asked, giving me an accusatory look. I rolled my eyes and ran my hand through my hair. “Well, Parker and I hadn't been intimate at all. He's trying to hold back for my sake because he knows that I'm not ready.” I looked down, currently beating myself up because of the way I acted. I
(Raina)Being a witch wasn't easy for me. Going through training and at the age of twenty was a difficult task. My birthday is coming up, but I still felt like I wasn't mature enough. I couldn't even get Elias to continue his training. He forfeited it because he thought that he would change. I would have been there for him, but he wasn't ready, so I supported him either way.It's been a week now since Jason had left, and that's the last time since I have seen Elias. I'm sure he had a lot to do, but I missed my friend. Today, I was fully prepared to go over to his pack and demand that he visit me often. That would be selfish of me, but at this point, I didn't care. I needed the distraction. Why? Because of Parker Johnson, my mate and linker. I haven't formed a bond with him as yet. He knew the reasons, so he chose to wait until I was ready. I am not even sure if I'm going to ever be ready. How can I mate with someone who was working for my aunt? I still haven't come to terms with that
(Jason) “Are you sure there's nothing I can do for you?” Killian asked for the tenth time. I shook my head, making him sigh with frustration. I don't understand why he cared though, I mean, this is my fate. The goddess chose not to give me a mate. The most I can do is mourn the loss of something that I could have had. “Look, I get that it's difficult. You had hopes, and it was torn away in the blink of an eye. You're welcome to stay here as long as you want.” Did I want that, though? I was still tempted to visit other packs, even though I wasn't even sure if I had the luxury of getting a second chance mate. “I would rather leave, I don't think there is a reason for me to stay here.” I snapped, making him flinch as I gulped down the remaining liquor that Killian gave me earlier. “It's only customary for me to…" I slammed the glass down on the kitchen counter. Killian jumped a little from my sudden burst of anger. “It's only customary, my ass! You're only doing this because you fee
(Jason) I hated to admit it, but I was in love with Elias. The only way to remain sane was for me to leave. I didn't intend to stay this long, though, but being in the company of Elias, I didn't have any intention of leaving. I felt comfortable around him. Every so often, I wish that he was my mate, but that was me taking this further than it already was. Given the fact that I'm almost forty and Elias is nineteen, it would have looked unfortunate on my part. Plus, he's basically my nephew. Since he's Samuel's adopted son. Fuck, there were so many cons if I was ever to pursue something with Elias. I sighed as I waved goodbye to everyone who was there to see me off. I may have given up on finding my mate before, but I guess I should start trying for the sake of my sanity. The first place, for my trip, was to search at the pack that Ryland found Kai in Canada. I don't even know if I'm going to have that much of luck as Ryland did, but I have to give it a try. If I fail, then there a
(Elias) Going to therapy once more with Ryker, it felt strange. I wanted to tell Sally that she wasn't needed here anymore, so she could go back to her pack, but I wasn't sure how I was going to do so without sounding rude. I had already spoken to Lilliana about it, and she was happy that I had come to terms with everything that had happened to me in the past. But, she wanted to make sure that I was mentally capable of moving on. I had to think about it, and my final answer was yes. I am able to move on without therapy without having flashbacks, without having to go back to the cave where I felt safe. Forest also came to terms with what had happened to him, to us. He accepted his future without any complaints. Now, it was time to put the past behind us. Ryker, well, he also agreed with this. He didn't need therapy anymore, since he was adamant that he had changed. There were bound to be some slip ups, but we could work on that ourselves. So, with that being said, we sat in thera
(Ryker) Today, it was full here as everyone decided to use this day to party. To let loose and have fun, but while they were dancing, I was moping. Why? Because of Jason. He was all over my mate. The two of them were dancing as if they were lovers. Even though that wasn't the case, I still had a strong urge to go over to where they were and rolled them apart. The only problem was Max. He kept me rooted to the spot. I couldn't move since he took control of my body. He knew how dark my thoughts had gotten and was trying to get me to stay as far away from Elias and Jason as I could. I didn't care if they were having fun. The only person who was allowed to grab his ass like that was me. I huffed and tried to fight for control once more but failed miserably. 'Fuck you Maxwell.' I said, using his full name. He laughed, at the way I was acting. It wasn't funny one bit. 'Loosen up, will you? You know that today is the last day Jason will be here. He's leaving to search for his mate, I t
(Elias) Time flew by so quickly that I celebrated my birthday on January 20, and now I'm nineteen years old. Everyone was there to support me. That day, I was sworn in as the Alpha of the Red Forest Pack. A pack that is now combined with The Dark Sea Pack. Now, Kai is the only Luna for The Dark Sea Pack. I could never see myself as a Luna or even a warlock. It was hard for me to accept those, knowing that I was never going to be happy. But now that I have what was originally mine, I felt like I finally felt like I belonged. Like I was finally wanted. I am currently at Lillian's, talking to her. She wanted to know if I was alright, after everything that I had been through. All the struggles that I had faced, the hardship, the pain. All of that is now in the past, and it's time for me to move on. After my talk with Lilliana and promising her that I will continue my therapy session, I was finally able to spend some time with Raina. She told me that she wanted me to meet someone, I wa
(Ryker) I had to admit, what Forest said had left me thinking about taking him in more ways than one. Elias eventually took control, and when he saw the look on my face, he started blushing. “And yet, you claimed that you weren't gay.” Ryland said. I narrowed my eyes at him for interrupting my thoughts. “Dad already scolded me for that countless times, I don't need to hear it from you too.” I replied, making him chuckle. “I got it from him, I remembered that he asked me to use that line against you whenever you're stating at Elias as if you want to eat him.” I flinched at his reply, Max chuckled since he could tell why I reacted the way I did. After a couple more minutes, everyone was ready to leave. Raina teleported us back to my pack. Then, she left with Lilliana and the others. I told Damian and Miles to take them to a room while I followed Elias. He still had Liam wrapped in his arms, I didn't know how I'm going to get him to take a break, but I needed his help with a little
(Elias) I can't believe that I'm back, I didn't think that it was possible for me to be here, but it did work. I was fading, along with everything that was tied to Amaros. Since I was his son, I would have vanished forever. But, despite my hatred for Andrea, she found a way to help me. Now, here I am, surrounded by my family, the ones who care about me the most. But, what caught my eyes more was my brother. I still considered him my brother, regardless of what his parents had done to me in the past. I didn't consider them my parents, as much as I wish that things were different, it wasn't. “What's his name?” I asked Ryker, who had me wrapped in his arms. I continued to stare at my brother, who was with Lilliana. It seems as if she doesn't have any intention of letting him go. “It's Liam. He's an omega, at least that's what Asia told me.” Ryker replied. Lilliana walked over to me and smiled. “Would you like to hold him?” She asked. My eyes became wide as I looked at my brother, I
