Lyra

After openly walking around for months without guards, we finally get a break. It took the sprites that long to choose a new leader after we got rid of the one who didn’t agree with our plan. It seems their politics are even more complicated than that of werewolves and Lycans.

Who would ever have guessed that the sprites would be the ones to give us the information we needed? I am surprised when Silas calls me into his office looking incredibly happy and informs me that not only are they now part of our plan, they have also stumbled across the location of our hunters.

I really want to be the one to go with Silas to get the information that would confirm that we know where the hunters are, but I still have to pretend that I’m not scared of them. The hunters are closer to home than we thought, which means they’ve been keeping a close eye on me.

It quickly becomes clear that they are playing the long game. That is probably why they were able to kill so many of us. For two days, I on

  • Moonlit Betrayals   Chapter 52 - Moving on.

    LyraIt takes two weeks before I’m recovered enough to go home, which is a little infuriating. If I was still under the impression that I was human, it wouldn’t have felt that long, but since I found out what I really was, it felt so damn long.“I want to see their hideout.” I announce the moment we walk into the house and Silas hums and hahs, until he has no other choice but to agree.“We’ve already gone through everything, and I have to warn you that some of it is pretty horrifying.” He looks worried as we pull up outside what seems to be an abandoned warehouse. I nod and watch as he unlocks the front door.“We decided not to move anything for now. I want to make sure that there aren’t any more of them hanging around somewhere.” His reasoning makes sense on the one hand, but on the other, it would be very bad to leave them all the weapons they need to destroy my kind.Silas shows me to a back room, and my jaw drops. Compared to the rest of the building, it looks like you have just s

  • Moonlit Betrayals   Chapter 53 - You can be the guy ...

    LyraA couple of days later, Silas is still angry with me, but we move ahead with our plan. Fiona comes back to the pack grounds, and we take her to the hospital wing where we’ve kept the hunter under sedation. I watch as she touches him, and you can literally see the power exchange the moment it starts to happen.There are cameras set up all around the room with people monitoring the recordings while Fiona explains what she sees. When lunchtime rolls around, we take a short break and continue after lunch. Fiona explains that she can’t move too fast, or she will kill him before we get all the information.Over the coming week, she pulls out every memory she can get her hands on right up to when he finally breathes his last breath. I breathe a sigh of relief the moment the monitors show that his heart has stopped, and I look at Silas.I can see the relief written all over his face. He didn’t want the hunter here at all. I understand why. Out of everyone, I understand the most. That mon

  • Moonlit Betrayals   Chapter 54 - A new beginning for the Lycans.

    LyraNow that we no longer have some kind of thing hanging over our heads, it’s as though I can finally breathe. I can shift and run with the pack on hunt nights. I can go to town and just shop without worrying. I don’t have to hide from anyone.It feels as if I’m free for the first time in my life, and I want to celebrate that freedom. Thankfully, Silas feels the same and when he suggests a pack bonfire, at first, I think it’s just for our pack, but it quickly becomes clear that it’s not.Even better, Helena finds information in the hunter’s database that proves there are other Lycans in the world, and Silas agrees that they should also be invited to this celebration. If we can find them. Helena is positively beaming the day she makes contact.Three weeks after we got rid of the man that captured me, Silas, Helena and I are greeting guests at our gates. We’ve set up tents for all the visitors since what was meant to be a one-night celebration has turned into an opportunity nobody wan

  • Moonlit Betrayals   Chapter 55 - Life goes on and children grow up.

    Lyra“I want us to try for a baby.” My voice sounds strange to my own ears when Silas and I get into bed later in the evening. We have Hunter, and I love him more than life itself, but I want more.“Uhm, okay. But where is this coming from?” Silas looks amused as he pulls me into his arms and I lay down with my head resting on his chest. His heartbeat is calming, and I trace his muscles with my fingertips while trying to find the words.“I was out walking in the clearing today and I remember having all the people here. It felt so good to have them all here. I just. I want more of that. I want us to have a bunch of kids.” I prop myself up on my elbows so that I can look into his eyes. Silas looks a little confused and amused at the same time. He jokes about it and I feel a little hurt, but I realize that it sounds a little nuts. I mean, we shouldn’t have that huge of a pack. It would definitely draw attention to us.Besides, I can’t imagine being pregnant all the time while trying to

  • Moonlit Betrayals   Chapter 56 - A huge choice to make.

    IsabellaI burst into my room a couple of minutes later, and suddenly my beautiful dress is just in the damn way. I can hear the brothers still growling at each other downstairs while I pace back and forth in my room. My parents walk in and look at me as though I’m supposed to have all the answers right then and there.“How could this happen? How is this possible? Is one of them lying or something?” I pull at my dress that is suddenly getting in the way of my legs being able to move fast enough. My eyes shoot from one parent to the next and neither of them have any answers for me.“I guess it is possible.” My mom’s hands are so tightly clamped together that her knuckles turn white. She looks at my dad and I feel a knot start to form in the back of my throat. Isn’t this just my life? First, I find out I’m not a werewolf like my brothers and now this!“What do I do now?” My voice goes up an octave as I search their eyes for answers, and they look at each other for a moment before lookin

  • Moonlit Betrayals   Chapter 57 - Worst possible look ...

    IsabellaIn the morning, I wake up with an enormous headache. I make my way downstairs for some coffee and am grateful when I find only my mom in the kitchen. Usually, by this time there is an army of people preparing breakfast and no peace.“Hi, mom.” I sigh as I take a seat, and she brings over two mugs. I could smell the coffee all the way down the hallway and I take a long sip as soon as I get my hands on the mug.“Morning, sweetheart. How are you feeling?” She frowns and I know I probably look terrible.“I have a headache. Do we have aspirin anywhere?” I frown, looking around and she shakes her head. Werewolves rarely ever get sick, so we don’t keep any medication in the house.“No, we don’t. I’m sorry, honey, but I will send someone to get you some.” Her eyes glaze over for a second before I can stop her and I know she’s already sent an omega to the pharmacy in town.“Thanks mom. I still don’t understand how this happened. Have you ever heard of anybody having two mates at the s

  • Moonlit Betrayals   Chapter 58 - Family and all that comes with it.

    Isabella“Okay, Isabella, I know what you said, but …” He holds up both his hands in submission, but I interrupt him.“There are no butts! I told you to give me time. I told you I will pick who goes first and bugging me isn’t going to get me to my decision any faster.” I try my best to focus on anger and not the incredible hunger I suddenly feel for him.What the hell is wrong with me?! I nearly roll my eyes when my mind tries to figure out what is underneath his clothes. It won’t take much to figure it out. I’ve seen him in his swimming trunks. I’ve seen him without a shirt. Besides, his dang clothes are so tight, it leaves very little to the imagination!“Isabella, just hear me out.” He is pleading, but I don’t want to hear any of it. I really don’t want to give either one the advantage over the other. I’m about to say something when Jack bursts through the front door, and he goes straight for Andrew.“You bastard!” With his momentum, he pushes Andrew up and over the chair which top

    Isabella“Hey, Babygirl. I’m so sorry about my boys. I swear they are going to be the death of me.” Auntie Helena has been one of the most incredible women in my life. She’s not family by blood, but she has been like my mom’s sister all these years.She has been my aunt since the day I was born, which kind of makes it really strange that I’m mated to both her boys.“Hi, no, it’s fine. It was just a vase.” I don’t believe it’s her fault that they are acting the way they do, and I honestly don’t want her to apologize.“A vase?!” She sounds confused, and I know instantly that Andrew and Jack didn’t tell her what happened.“Yes, they broke one of mom’s vases.” I sigh, wondering if I should even have told her, but I’ve never felt the need to lie to her. I’ve never hidden anything from Helena. “Anyway, it’s okay. It wasn’t one of her sentimental pieces. You know mom. She’s probably already forgotten about it.” I have to focus her attention on what I need to know and not the broken vase.“I

  • Moonlit Betrayals   Chapter 122 - I resign!

    SamI follow the direction of her gaze as she pushes past me. I’m not surprised to find that thin-lipped manager glaring at us, and it’s the final straw. Marching over to where he is standing, I make sure that he can feel my power flow through the air.“Mr. Nash, I intend on asking Jemma out on a date as soon as we’ve booked out tomorrow. I will also make sure that we never have our conferences here again, if you so much as think about firing her.” A soft growl vibrates through me and I note the fear in his eyes.He nods and leaves without a word. I turn to find Jemma, but she is gone. I wanted to take the chance of asking her for a dance, but each time I do see her, she is busy. The last thing I want is for anyone here to be neglected.I’m relieved when the night ends. All I can think about is signing for the bill and then finding Jemma.JemmaI saw them talking right before I walked into the kitchen. My heart is racing. My palms are sweaty and I just need a moment.

  • Moonlit Betrayals   Chapter 121 - Why won't Sam just leave me alone?

    SamI don’t like that she looks so nervous. I don’t have time to think about it as the other alphas walk into the conference room. I carefully watch them to make sure none of them react to her scent and I almost breathe a sigh when I see it seems to be just me.“Hey, alpha, are you okay?” Mark hands me my folder and we take our seats.“Nope.” I frown as the meeting gets underway. I have a hard time focusing. I’m concerned about Jemma and the fact that she looked so nervous. It’s clear the hotel management makes sure that their staff don’t get involved with guests, and I guess it makes sense.I just don’t like to see her like that. I have to find a way to speak to her without any of them around. Yes, that’s what I will do. I will speak to her when I’m not a guest. It’s going to be really tough to stay away while we are here, but I have another twenty-four hours, and then I won’t be a guest anymore.JemmaI’m relieved when he doesn’t try to speak to me again. Usually, if I just tell the

    Jemma“I hate conferences. Why can’t people just come to the hotel for a holiday?” Mandy complains. She always complains. When there are only holiday guests, she complains because she can’t earn enough to be the one just enjoying the hotel.“Just keep your eyes open. I’m sure one of these guys at the conference will catch your eye.” I wink, hoping it will distract her.“If only! Mr. Nash told me this morning I’m working in the restaurant for the next three days. Apparently, he wasn’t happy with the way I arranged the conference room the last time these guys were here.” Mandy sighs.“Besides, all of them have been here before. There are no new faces.” A sly smile crosses her lips. “Or bodies to look at. Have you seen how their wives dress?!” She rolls her eyes and leaves the kitchen. I grab my tray and pack the water bottles before making my way to the conference room.After giving the room a quick once over, I leave feeling confident that Mr. Nash will be happy. It is the first year t

    SamOur pack’s history is filled with love stories and war. It is filled with betrayal and reconciliation. So much has happened that I sometimes feel as if my own love story won’t be enough. It won’t be as impressive. Thankfully, I don’t have much time to think about it.Becoming alpha isn’t easy. Taking over isn’t easy. Finding a mate is the toughest part of it all. Every mother keeps looking at me as if expecting me to pick her daughter and every daughter is looking at me as if I’m a piece of meat she has to devour.All I can see are black widow spiders who want to catch me, mate with me and then kill me! What was supposed to be an exciting time very quickly turned into me trying to hide from literally everyone. Whenever one of those mothers tries to speak to me, I have something urgent to take care of.Finally, the time comes for the alpha conference, and I can escape for a couple of days. After years of war, there seems to be far too many rogues and rogue attacks and a lot of the

    Noah“If you are watching this, I’m no longer with you.” Tears fill her eyes and it breaks my heart. “I told you so!” She laughs while pointing her index finger at the camera. “I’m sorry for leaving you so soon, my love. If I could have it any other way, I would never have chosen this.” She sighs deeply before wiping away her tears.A huge smile forms on her face and I wonder when she recorded this. She is heavily pregnant in the video and all I can think is that she did it in the days before she gave birth to Sam. She is sitting in the nursery from the looks of the background.Sam sits down on the edge of my table and I realize it’s the first time he has seen her like this. Sam has only ever seen pictures of Summer.“My beautiful baby boy, please know that you were made in love. That I wanted you more than anything I’ve ever wanted. Please be kind to each other. Support each other. Take care of each other.” She looks up and over the camera and nods at someone.“I have to go now.” Her

    SummerI love being in love. I’m still shocked that Noah is my destiny, but I’m grateful. Although he makes it clear that I’m his, whenever a young male gets too close, he is always kind and loving towards me. It’s the perfect balance of a protector and lover rolled into one very handsome package.Noah and I decide early on that we want to spend some time alone together before we start a family. It’s not the most popular decision, and we keep it to ourselves, so there won’t be backlash from anyone in the pack.Life as a Luna is interesting, and I find myself sounding like my mother far too often, but I love my new life. I find that I’m more of a nurturer than I thought I would be, and I love taking care of things for our people.Two years after our mating ceremony, we announce that I’m pregnant, and I can’t help but laugh when I hear the mumbles that people were beginning to think I was a dud or something. They clearly believed that I couldn’t have children, and our announcement is a

    SummerIn the morning, I can’t get our first kiss out of my mind. There were many more after it, but nothing compares to that first one. We say goodbye to my parents after making arrangements for them to come to our house.Over the next couple of days, my days are filled with everything we had to arrange. I found the perfect dress, and to me that was just the best thing ever. The day of our mating ceremony arrived, and I was just bubbling.I thought my life was going to start when I graduated, but here I was thinking again, that this is the moment my life will finally start. After an entire day of preparation, I finally got dressed and my dad walked me down the aisle.As I saw Noah waiting for me at the end, I almost sobbed with happiness and I had to fight back the tears that were threatening to fall. I still can’t believe that my destined mate is scrawny Noah. It’s become our little joke, and I just love that he isn’t fazed by it.He isn’t scrawny Noah anymore. He sure as hell isn’t

    SummerWhen I’m woken by the smell of coffee, I’m stunned. I have never slept that well before. I feel a little confused at first about where I am, but it doesn’t take more than a second to remember. I wonder if Noah slept beside me the entire time.“Thanks.” I smile as he hands me the mug and I take a long sip, enjoying the aroma. “What time is it?” I frown, suddenly worried that I might have wasted too much time and won’t get to my homework before dinner.“We only slept for an hour. You still have a lot of time.” Noah pulls my books out of my bag and places them on the table, making me laugh. I get up and am relieved that I didn’t sleep for hours. While I dig into my homework, he is lying on my bed studying the ceiling.“Aren’t you bored? Don’t you have work to do or something?” I turn to study him and he grins.“Nope and nope. Dad is in charge.” He sits up and smiles at me, sending a shiver of delight up the back of my spine. Honestly, I love being in love. I know it’s fast and all

    SummerWhen I calm down, I feel even sillier than I did earlier in the clearing. It’s as if some switch inside of me had suddenly flipped, and I could see things differently than I did before. I sit beside Noah once I’m calm, and I take a deep breath while they all look at me.“I want to accept Noah as my mate. I just want to finish school first, if that’s okay. It would be a waste if I have come all this way and don’t finish.” I nod feeling a lot more confident about my decision.“While we were talking in the clearing, Summer seemed to have this need to discuss things with you first. Now I understand why.” Noah smiles and takes my hand. I blush when he kisses the inside of my palm and when I look at my parents, they also seem happy with my decision.I never really thought of how my parents would react when I finally found my mate. Honestly, I was too busy thinking about myself. We all sit around and talk for a little while and when my phone rings, I’m a little surprised to see that i
