Chapter 60

Selena POV:Entering through the narrow opening of the cave was treacherous. The ground was slick with wet rocks and plant life and the lighting was extremely poor. The ranger was a few steps in front of me with the flashlight that gave off just enough light to guide us along the dark passageway, but it didn’t show every nuance that could be a potential concussion risk. I put my hands on either side of me as I moved along the tunnel. I felt tingles of charged Earth energy along my fingertips as they grazed the damp, smooth texture of the rock walls. It was getting stronger with each step I took. I could hear voices talking up ahead. Coming through the bend in the path, a crevice of light appeared a few steps ahead of us. Seconds later, we passed through another opening to our right and stepped into a huge cave. I stopped in amazement a few feet inside the doorway. I was conscious of the others standing at the center of the room, but my eyes were drawn to

Chapter 61

Selena POV:“Let’s go out,” Argon said finally to the group, giving no apology for the private conversation, and turned towards the exit. Lamont gave me a quick look that showed that he was displeased. Some of the others had the same expression but there was no malice behind theirs, more of perplexity. Yes, I had made a mess. Duncan wrapped his arms around my waist and pulled me close to him. I placed my cheek against his chest, stiffening myself against letting his emotions, most likely expressing disappointment in my actions. I was disappointed in my actions. Could I not get anything right these days? Should I even be counted on to work with magic?“Shit,” I whispered against Duncan’s jacket, fisting the material in my hands. “Stop it. Stop thinking like that,” he said smoothly, gently rubbing his hand up and down my back. “I messed it up again,” I muttered.&ld

Chapter 62

Selena POV:As we approached the others, I noticed that the smaller groups were now standing together. Duncan and Neo stood a few steps away from the rest, waiting for Meredith and me to join them. When Duncan took my hand in his, he leaned down to whisper in my ear, inquiring about my conversation with Meredith. I was too mortified to say anything as I felt like all eyes were watching me. I shook my head at him saying ‘later’ and left it at that.He ran a finger down the side of my face, through the blush that took residence the moment the words were out of his mouth. It was his silent way of saying he knew something was up and wasn’t going to let it drop. Damn this observant man. “Everyone, if I could have your attention, please!” Lamont raised his voice over the others. The circle of people quieted. All eyes were on Lamont, while Argon was on one side of him. “The majority of people needed for the protectio

Chapter 63

Selena POV:I woke up to the shrill sound of the home phone ringing in the wee hours of the morning. The sun had not yet broken the horizon and seeing that Duncan’s phone remained cold on the bedside table, I knew I had to pick it up. He must have been exhausted after spending a day and a half with a half-catatonic me. He stirred as I scooted off the bed and I had to reassure him that I was okay and for him to rest before I made my way to the phone. When I pulled it to my ears, I felt a yawn overcome me. “Good morning, Selena. Come to the greenhouse for another lesson with me in Life element. We need to get you up to par.”I wasn’t surprised at the voice of Lamont on the other side. “Two sessions in a day?” I asked, just in case. “Practicing the ritual is different from a lesson in Life magic. You are so tired because you don’t have a good grasp of your element. Once you learn how t

Chapter 64

Selena POV:“Sorry that I laughed,” she said, placing her palms on either side of my face when she saw my startled expression. “Lamont is high strung. He doesn’t like people who challenge his authority and he will live in someone else’s pack. The one he needs to teach is the alpha female. He doesn’t mean bad… mostly, but he can come across as overbearing. Neither of his parents really wanted him, so he tried very hard to be the best in whatever he was doing.Unfortunately, that overachieving tendency has spilled into the rest of his life, making him an unbearable ass. Don’t take it personally.” She paused. “As for feeling like you are failing… we all go through that. You have to calm yourself and keep trying. Center yourself and try again until you get it right.”“But… the pack…”“The pack is okay. Duncan has seen a lot worse during his father’s

Chapter 65

Duncan POV:The month slipped into the next with little difference, except for the days becoming shorter and the leaves on the trees showing seasonal decay. The days were monotonous but tense. Every morning, Selena woke up for lessons, the two of us went to training for the pups, and then practiced with the ritual against the magic eater. It kept all of our schedules full. It sometimes felt like there was not a moment to breathe with the amount of work we had to accomplish between the two of us. Selena continued to work with Lamont and not everything went smoothly, but she seemed to take advice to her heart and kept trying until she excelled at every lesson. I could see she had gained some level of reluctant respect from Lamont for her perseverance. Eventually, they started to have more civil conversations rather than heated confrontations. Witches called on by Lamont started to come over on the weekends to participate in learning the ritual as they would be p

Chapter 66

Selena POV:I trudged behind him obediently, the memory of the pain still fresh in my mind. In this state, I could sense Duncan better. One with my instincts, I felt the need to draw closer to him unintentionally.By then, the woods were quiet. I had felt distrustful of it since I heard of the magic eater. Most of the pack was sleeping and not many animals lived near our territory. I guess a pack of werewolves could be somewhat intimidating. It made you wonder what it could be in the woods that made a werewolf feel unsettled. How powerful would that be? I had run after him for about four or five miles when I saw Duncan stop in front of me. ‘Do you feel better?’ he asked me. I wiggled around, not knowing how to move. ‘I think so,’ I told him hesitantly. ‘I don’t think I am used to moving like this. It’s so odd,’ I admitted. He chuckled as he crouched. He was considerably bigger than me. So much bigg

Chapter 67

Selena POV:The next morning, I woke up to find myself entwined with Duncan. Our limbs were a tangled mess. It was hard to tell where one of us began and the other ended. I was slowly learning that Duncan was a close contact sleeper. I was also learning that I liked it. A lot. When I was in his arms, I felt safe, protected, and at ease. “You’re awake,” Duncan said softly. I turned to see he was watching me. His eyes filled with softness. “We better get going. I have arranged the run to happen before breakfast and no one wants to keep a bunch of hungry wolves waiting.” My stomach clenched with panic. I didn’t think the run would take place as soon as I opened my eyes. “I, uh, I am not sure I want to go. I don’t feel so good this morning.” My lie was pitiful at best. I could have said I was tired but Duncan knew that was not the case. Even my injuries were healing surprisingly fast. “Selena,&rdq

Chapter 68

Selena POV:A week had passed since then and practice was still as hard as always. Runs with the pack were invigorating and so much fun. I had gotten used to being protected and feeling cherished. It was one of the days as I cooked that Duncan ran into the house with a frown. “What’s wrong?” I asked immediately, feeling him watching me anxiously. I turned to look at him, putting the spatula down.He hesitated for a moment. “A couple of wolves have been checking out the parameter of the pack,” he said quietly. “They are not rogues, then. Why would wolves move away from their pack land and come to another one… in a group?” I asked slowly, to myself. “It might be the magic eater influencing everyone,” he said silently. “I just got the call. Do you want to check it out?” he asked. I thought about it for a moment. “I am cooking right now. Are they nearby?” I

Chapter 69

Selena POV:I raised my hand to stop him from talking. “Firstly, pack members are treated a certain way and I wasn’t. Therefore, I have no ties to you. Secondly, you forced the young, unmated women in your pack to go into heat and hunted them down. That is against moral bounds. You also forced a half-breed who was not of age and tried to use her as a pleasure station.” I didn’t want to say it in front of Duncan, but I had to. “I am sure the council would be ready to hear my side of the story. Considering that I am mated to the Alpha of the Blue Moon Pack, I am automatically a member of this pack. You have no jurisdiction over me. If you wish to try me for killing that slimy beta of yours, you can ask the council and the witch coven. I would be happy to comply with any demands you have.”“Witch coven…” he whispered to himself. I felt Duncan curl his arm around my shoulder in a show of support. I didn’t
