Blood and Moon 26 Moon Embracing Ceremony(after party)
Desiree. "Welcome, Desiree Dawson," a woman whom I could not see her face said, and I swallowed hard. "Don't be frightened, Desiree," the woman said, taking off her hoodie, and it was Janet's mother. Other members began to take off their hoodies, and I was shocked at what I saw. Every Moon I knew was there. Aunt Margret, my mother's neighbours that owned the food truck, Tim my friend, some workers at the packhouse, and some enforcers. I was in shock. Someone brought me a white hooded robe, but I refused to collect it. "What is the meaning of this?" I asked as politely as I could manage because I felt hoodwinked at that moment, but I did not want to come off as offensive to anyone. "The Uprising," Janet's mother, Kendra Lawson, said, and I swallowed. She pushed up her chest with pride and looked around her, then cleared her throat to speak. "The Bloods have plagued our lands and oppressed our people for eight years now. It is time to say enough is enough and take back what is right
Blood and Moon 27 A Cruel Plan
Desiree Walking back home, I knew my life would never be the same again. There was no way the moons were going to listen to me, and they would feel I abandoned them in their time of need. I wished they would listen, because the vision that saw was gruesome, and I prayed that it wouldn't come to pass. I got to the packhouse two hours later, about three in the morning. I entered my apartment and found Adam curled on the bed. I was amazed that he would be there since I wasn't around. I thought he would sleep in his apartment instead. I took off my clothes and curled into the bed next to him. He came close and wrapped his hands around me. "You couldn't stay away from me too long," he whispered in my ears with his husky sleep voice, and I smiled. How the hell could they expect me to give him up? I hugged his hands to my chest and relaxed into his embrace. All my troubles were far away, and sleep came quickly. I woke up the next day in Adams's arms. He was still sleeping, so I gently got
Blood and Moon 28 End Of A Friendship
Desiree Tim's words kept me up all night. I couldn't tell Adam because it could get all of them killed, nor could I be still and wait. Ashria had instructed me to wait until night so she could get a vision from the moon to see how the event could play out. I was beginning to understand a lot about my powers. It worked only with the moon, even though Ashria told me we will eventually draw strength from the sun, but for now, it was affected by the moon only, and that was why Ashria said she could not wage war. It wasn't because she did not sympathise with them. Apart from it not being a part of our mandate, she simply did not have the strength yet. It was something we would have to build gradually. Adam knew I was restless, but I played it off. He slept early because he was exhausted from the rigorous training he went through the entire day. I got off the bed and went to the window to stare at the night. I could see a glimpse of the moon, but it wasn't as visible as it should have been
Blood and Moon 29 An Attack
Adam My father called me to his chamber after practice, and I reluctantly went to see him. As always, Beta Green was there when I arrived, and I started seeing him as a permanent fixture in my father's chambers. To my surprise, another person was there, someone I never expected. I saw Margret getting dressed with her hair tousled, and I did not need to guess what she was doing in my father's chamber. I guess I wasn't the only one that had the hots for moons. I looked at my father, surprised because I had never seen him with any woman before. After my mother died, he shut down completely. As much as he claims to hate moons, he must have some feelings for Margret to sleep with her. Too bad she didn't feel the same way. She averted my gaze, and I didn't say a word to her. She had taken herself off Desiree's service list. I did not know why and Desiree was yet to tell me, but I hoped it had nothing to do with my father. My father spanked her butt on the way out, and his eyes were filled w
Blood and Moon 30 Implicated
Desiree I couldn't believe what had just happened. Adam shook me to respond, but I couldn't respond out of fear. The wolf Adam killed was Fred, Janet's older brother. I was in shock because I didn't expect them to go through with their stupid plan. I grew up with them. It was heartbreaking that they had wasted their lives the way they did. Adam shook me, and I noticed the tears in his eyes. I felt his fear and knew what he was thinking, but how could I tell him what I knew without implicating everyone? "Please, Desiree, tell me what you know about this," he pleaded, "I will protect you," he said, and I shook my head. "I am not a part of this," I said, shaking my head, and I knew I had to calm down to tell him what happened. "After the Moon Embracing Party, they asked me to join the uprising, and I refused. That was why aunt Margret removed herself from my service list. Janet refused to serve me, but I had her taken off the service list when Tim said he overheard they were planning
Blood and Moon 31 Lies And Deceit
Desiree I told Adam everything that transpired at the Moon embracing ceremony after the party, but I did not tell him about my wolf being divine. I knew Kendra would use it, and Ashria knew how. So it was best we withheld the information to make the revelation more dramatic, but I told him I had a brown wolf just in case. Ashria assured me the information would be relevant. Adam left my apartment to interrogate the prisoners and investigate the event. I sat alone in my apartment, and I didn't wish Kendra and her cohorts well. It was a very low move to try to implicate me. I warned them, and they didn't listen. I sat on my loveseat, knowing exactly how the investigation would play out. Stupid wolves. Adam I reached the cells and found my father there. This was very personal to him because they had almost succeeded. Beta Green was also there, and I noticed he was a bit surprised. "Your majesty," he said, "where is the Dawson bitch. Their leader said she put them up to this," he asked
Blood and Moon 32 Brown Wolf
Adam Desiree was brought to the chamber in chains. Beta Green did not give her any dignity at all. He must have pulled her from the shower, because her hair was wet, and a towel was tied around her body to cover her nakedness. It also seemed as if he had beaten her. I lunged at him, and my father held me. "Was that necessary!" I yelled in anger. "I swear I would beat you up for this," I promised Green, and my father stopped me. "She is a traitor and should be treated as one." Green protested to justify his actions. But I knew the real reason he did this. It was because of Lola. He had been itching to deal with Desiree for his daughter's sake, and my father had given him a chance. "What happened to innocent until proven guilty!" I asked my father. Kristoff was coming out, and he was ready to kill. "Adam, calm down!" my father yelled with his alpha authority, and it didn't work. I began to growl. I was going mad. My father looked at me surprised and looked at Desiree, and his eye
Blood and Moon 33 A Purpose
Desiree Adam and I returned to my apartment. He wanted us to go to his apartment while they fixed my damaged doors, but I told him I would rather stay in mine because of his father's laws. Ashria had let me know it wasn't time to move yet, and as things were, I needed to trust my wolf because she knew things that even I could not explain. "Your wolf is beautiful," Adam finally said after we had our baths and settled on the bed. I needed the sweet words because I was heartbroken and stressed out. I had known the Lawsons all my life, and to think the king would wipe them off the surface of the world the next day scared and shook me. "Adam," I finally spoke up, "Please do not allow your father to kill Janet. She is the last of that bloodline. A lot of wolf families have been wiped out, please." I pleaded with him. Adam sighed and looked at me. He drew me close and kissed me passionately. "I would have lost you tonight. It was either Kendra would get you killed, or my father would ki
