I hope you liked this chapter. As always, I would love to read your comments.
Twenty Years Later I’m sitting in my favorite spot with my mate sitting behind me in my favorite lounge chair. We are both drinking our morning coffee as two mountain lions walked up to the deck. They both bowed to us, and I smiled, “Good morning, Dusty. Good morning, Lilly.” Dusty found his mate in his own pack on his sixteenth birthday. We had a party for him that night and he introduced her to all of us. She is such a sweet girl I really couldn’t wish for anything better for him. Robert and Katie are so proud of them. They had four children and they only have two still at home. I am so proud of the parents they are. The two children that have already found their mates and left are absolutely awesome. Linden found his mate and decided to build another house close to our land. His mate understands that he needs to be close to family and his siblings are all he has left. His father passed away when my triplets were only two years old. It was an extremely hard time for him. We made s
Hello, everyone,First off, I want to thank everyone who has read Loner to Luna and become a fan of my work. You have no idea how much it means to me. I always wanted to be a writer, but never had the courage until I wrote Loner to Luna. To see the popularity that it has gained is truly humbling and mind-blowing. Never, in a million years, would I have thought it could gain this big of a fan base. I truly appreciate it.Now, on to the real reason for this note. Upon speaking with my editor about the next book in this series, we decided to put Loner to Luna, and The Oracle and The Dragon Prince in the same book as the next in the series, The Witch's Window. We did this so that the people who loved Loner to Luna so much, could continue the series, without having to search for it. I am including Ashina's Quest with Loner to Luna, so you will see two Epilogues under that title. They were in the original book together, so they will stay that way.I realize that
"Abby! I need you down here ASAP!" That's my mom waking me up before she leaves for work. She is a doctor in the pack hospital and usually has to wake me up at ungodly hours before she leaves. I groan as I get out of bed and stretch my sore muscles from training with my dad last night. I walk downstairs giggling. I reach the bottom and my mom smiles as she raises her eyebrows, "Care to share?" I start laughing even harder as I reply. "I was finally able to knock dad on his ass last night! I wish you could've seen the look on his face!" Mom laughs and shakes her head, "I'm sure he was a combination of proud and shocked. Listen, I need you to get your sisters ready for school this morning. I need to leave early for work. I may be late tonight too. I'm on call. Would you fix dinner for everyone?" I cock my head to one side, "Sure". "Thanks. Please try not to be late for school." she says and walks out the door. I look at the clock for the first time and see that it's on
After I shower, I put on a pair of my favorite boot cut jeans and a comfy t-shirt. I brush my waist length brown hair out and let it air dry. I don't bother with much makeup, just a little lip gloss and a little eye liner. Time to head to Adriana's room... my drama queen sister. She's only two years younger than me, but much higher maintenance than my youngest sister, Alexis. I shake Adriana, "Ade! C'mon! It's time to get up for school. Get up and get dressed." Adriana squirms around and starts kicking the covers off, "Why are you always in my face?" "Whoa little sister!" I step back, "I only wake you up when I absolutely have to. If I had my choice, I wouldn't. You are entirely too grumpy. Besides, you're going to miss me in a few months when I go to college and I can't wake you up anymore." She looks at me with a smirk, "If you can find a school that will accept you." I walk out of her room ignoring her comment because I know she just wants to get a reaction out of me, and
The rest of the day went the same way it always does. Me keeping my head down, ignoring the whispers, the name calling, avoiding the occasional foot purposely put in my path to trip me (one of the advantages to be constantly looking at the floor). After school, I met up with my sisters and Kayla and started walking home. We are halfway home when I hear someone running up behind me. Trying to avoid another situation like this morning, I turn quickly and see our future Alpha running up to me, "Abby! Why are you in such a hurry to leave?" I raise my eyebrows and shake my head, "You really don't care about anything except what affects you personally. Sorry Alpha, I have to go". I start to turn, and he grabs my wrist and turns me around. I can no longer hide my irritation and say, "What do you want Alpha? I have to get home and cook dinner for my family." He continues holding my wrist and says, "I know your birthday is coming up. Are you having a party?" I sha
After dinner, dad told Adriana to load the dishwasher because he wanted to talk to me. We sit down in the living room, and dad says, "Abby I know everyone has been asking you about your birthday, but we need to have a serious discussion about it. It's only a week away and some important things could happen and I want you to be fully prepared for it". Just then mom walks in. Dad tells her what he just said and mom kicks off her shoes, and sits down, "Okay. Let's talk".Dad starts the discussion, "We all know that it's very possible that you could meet your mate that day and you need to be extra careful". I hold up a hand and interrupt, "Dad, I highly doubt that any of the guys in this pack are my mate. They are all royal assholes. None of them are interested in a mate who can defend herself. They want to be dominant instead of equals like you and mom. I won't settle for less than what you two have. Besides, I have my wolf training right after I graduate high school. I don't ha
Adam's POV I've been trying to catch Abby alone all day today. It's not like she's popular. The problem is just the opposite. Everyone has been ganging up on her harder this year than ever before. But it's not like I ever did anything about it before either. Combine that with Dina hanging all over me all day, and I didn't stand a chance. When I saw her rushing to get out of the building, I saw my chance. As I followed her out of the building, I kept getting this faint feeling that she may be my mate. To be honest, that's why I've been having sex with as many of these whores as I can. My wolf, Maximus, keeps telling me she's our mate, but I'm having a hard time figuring out if I want her. She never does anything about the bullying at school. I nee
Abby's POV "Well, ladies, you did well tonight." Beau says to Kayla and me. I start laughing, "I'd say we have officially hit badass fighter status. We both managed to knock the pack Gamma on his ass!" Kayla and I laugh as we high five. Beau shakes his head and laughs, "I guess you have. I'm really proud of both of you". I give him a big hug, "Thanks dad number two! You have no idea how much you and mom number two mean to me!" Then I turn to Kayla, "I gotta get home and shower. I feel like I smell like a wet goat!" Kayla scrunches her nose, "Your feeling would be correct". We both laugh as I walk out. I text my dad letting him know I'm on my way home. He hates it when he doesn't know when to expect me home. It's only two blocks, but he worries. Five minut
