I looked at my mom smiling at me. "Get up, sleepy head and help me carry your things into the house," she laughed. I told her that I really should just take the bags back with me. I grabbed four and appeared in the bedroom I'd used before the merciful murder of Noah. I sat the bags on the floor and headed back to my parent's home to see the car back in the garage. I ran up to the door and knocked. My mom answered and told me the bags were put in the closet. "How long has it been?" I asked and she said, "oh, about a month." I had only been gone a few minutes. "It's okay Raven, we all know time runs differently in the realms and the Lycan realm is the longest," she said with a grin. She pulled out the remaining bags and hugged me."Don't worry about us or your sons. Your dad told me they are flourishing under Lucifer's training and have been enjoying themselves in hell," she said and I felt like a shitty mother. "I'm a terrible parent," I sighed and she patted my cheek."Your boys a
"What's going on?" Rune questioned us both. I glanced over at Sköll and said, "nothing" as I headed upstairs to my room. I heard Rune start grilling his father for answers."You need to build a bond with Rune or when I go you will perish, Raven. You need a part of his soul or you will die," Noah informs me and I start to weep. I fell into the bed and buried my face into the pillow."I don't want you to go, Noah, I love you," I mumbled softly. I heard my wolf ask Noah why he insists on continuously breaking my heart. Noah whines that he was just telling me the truth. A knock at the door had me turn my face toward it."Come in," I mumbled softly as the door opened to a concerned Rune. He walked inside and closed the door behind himself. I watched him as he came and sat next to me on the mattress. Placing his hand across my back, he surprised me by massaging it lightly. I closed my eyes while enjoying his ministrations."My father finally told me everything. I'm not sure how I feel abou
Adria was yelling at Noah telling him he knew damn well why and that they'd just had this conversation. My eyes narrowed at the individuals within my subconscious and Rune was very confused by my behavior. I waved my hands in the air and started walking in circles. The robe I wore flapped open showing my unmentionables to all. Rune just stood back and watched me intently."What are you going on about!" I shouted out loud and Rune cocked his brow as he rubbed his chin. He remained quiet as I dealt with my internal entities."Pretty boy doesn't want to forget you so the moon Goddess made a deal or bet with Sköll that if you and Rune can withstand each other's bond Noah's soul can enter Rune and Rune will become your twos child if not then Noah will be born into you and Rune's baby," Adria growled and I gasped and looked over at Rune. "That's completely unfair for Rune. How can his father bet something so carelessly and Noah…shame on you for being so callous," I snapped, catching Rune's
"Yes Sagon, it's me and I need your help with Noah,'' I said in a hurry. His brow crinkled as I rushed past him."But Noah is gone," he stammered."His soul is inside of me keeping me alive and needs a vessel to reincarnate but he will forget me…," I said softly and pulled him into his living room to explain everything. When I finished he was telling me I needed to talk with Lucifer since he was the expert with souls and moving memories. "I just need advice. I kinda like my new mate but we are far from the love that I have for Noah," I said sadly. Sagon shook his head and told me what Grace had told me years ago."The living are much better bedmates," he said with a fangy grin. "Besides, Rune is half demon and can come and go here the same as you," he added. I looked down at the green stone hanging from my neck and thought I couldn't be without the stone."So I should bring him with me to speak with Lucifer?" I asked and he shrugged."Seems like a good idea that your mate knows what
I excused myself and decided to take a stroll outside on the patio to cool myself. Since kissing Rune the first time I realized that my desire was sending signals to my body preparing it for mating. "You should just push the issue," my wolf growled and I told her that I would respect Rune and allow him to decide what he will do with Noah’s soul. I secretly hoped he would keep him and the two could mesh into one whole person. I'd then get the best of both in one package. I pulled on the crotch of my pants since my undies were stuck to my damp sex."I kind of miss Noah being in here with me, he was entertaining …Your estrus will come soon…you know that, right?" Adria whined and I crossed my arms and told her that I was aware. I turned hearing the door open and watched Rune start stripping his clothes as he walked past me giving me a perfect view of his large package and firm ass. He shifted as he fell and Remus tore off into the dark forest. I watched until his white wolf was no longer
After using the bathroom and going to my normal room. I quickly changed into a silk blouse and a pair of black jeans. I rushed down the stairs and stopped. Rune was standing in front of the open front door with his arms spread to his side as a tall attractive brunette female had her hands wrapped around his neck and kissed him fully on the mouth. I swallowed uncomfortably at what I'm seeing and my stomach started to get ill."Figured I could stay with you to celebrate the upcoming festival as I have in the past since you're still unmated," the woman purrs and my hellfire begins to spread. I raised my hand and a fireball hit the door above their heads. Rune turns to me with his hands raised."I didn't touch her," he said solemnly and I eyed the bitch. She was glaring at me boldly."Remus tells me the woman is crazy and Rune in the past had a short relationship with her. She believes that he is hers and hers alone so be careful. She's Alpha King Bruno's sister and a dire wolf warrior,"
"I was watching Noah as I spoke and Rune was glaring at him and me. Lucifer was watching and waved his hand suddenly. Putting Rune in I in a closed-off room with a small wooden bench. There wasn't a door and I glanced over at Rune."Why did he put us in here?" I asked him and he looked over at me and grunted."Probably to prove a point. You don't give a shit about me and only care about your ex-mate," he growled painfully and turned away from me on the small bench he sat upon. I sighed telling him that wasn't true. "I can prove it," I said softly, then closed my mouth as my desire started rising as I looked over his back muscles. Rune glanced over at me and closed his eyes, shaking his head."No one thinks I'm attractive like this," he growled, lifting his clawed hands and pointing to himself. I grinned slightly and tilted my head to look at his face. His features were still there even though his coloring had changed. His straight nose and sharp jawline looked good with his perfectly
Rune held my hand and we reappeared in his living room at his house. I looked up at him curiously."Aren't you telling me?" I questioned. He sighed and told me that Noah and he decided on it during their talk in the kitchen. Furrowing my brow I asked and? Rune chuckled deeply. "I left the choice to Noah and he wishes to be reborn as our son but requested to be named Noah once again," he said solemnly. "Then he will forget his past and me," I said sadly. Rune frowned and rolled his eyes."He's technically a soul Raven. He has very few options and feels that you and I will be lovely parents and raise him to be a better man than he was before. Those are his words," he said in frustration. I fell onto the couch cushions and sighed."His children would become his step brothers…that is just fucked up," I growled. "Well honestly I feel that your both selfish cunts, I know that you and I are mates but this Noah soul shit is fucking bullshit," Rune said sternly and turned from me and stompe
