Caleb POV

Smoke. There was so much smoke. The ground was charred, the sky black and lifeless, that even the sun strained to break through. I continued to walk, my boots sinking into the dirt as rivers of blood soaked the leather with every step. As far as the eye could see, bodies lay in wake. Discarded limbs, flesh torn and ripped through that they no longer looked like the wolves they once were. I caught sight of half a face that stopped my blood. My chest constricted as I fell to my knees. My fingers lightly ran across the forehead as I tried to contain the earth shattering devastation that rippled through me. The green eyes were once so piercing, now lifeless.

No.

I scanned, looking for anyone else who may have survived. Smoke clouded my vision as tears filled my eyes. So many are dead.

Through the gap in the smoke, I saw a lone figure in the distance standing by a stack of bodies. He flicked a match, setting them alight. Orange and red filled my vision as the flames licked at the

    Aurora POVI don’t remember what woke me, but I just felt like something was wrong. As my eyes opened, everything in the room looked the same except Caleb was missing from my bed. I pushed up onto my elbows, seeing the balcony doors open. A light breeze filtered through the room as I pushed the covers off and grabbed one of the boys’ t-shirts following the moonlight outside.I stopped dead in my tracks when I saw Caleb hunched over, struggling to breathe. I reached for him through the bond, but he had shut me out. Is this what woke me up? Why was he hiding this? “Caleb?” I called because out of all my mates, Caleb has always been certain of who and what he wants. He was the first to accept me as his mate. To defend me. Protect me. I have never seen him as anything but the calm in the storm. He doesn’t answer, but the way his body shudders has my blood clogging in my veins.I swallow, my throat feeling tight as the window blows against my shirt. When I reach him, I place my hand on his

    Aurora POVWhen I finally wake up, the sun is shining through the curtains. I’m also all alone, which means I have massively over slept. Rubbing my eye I get up and head over to the ensuite to shower, then get dressed.When I get downstairs, I see my mates have taken the kids out into the backyard to play. It seems to be kids versus adults. A small smile plays on my lips as I grab the eggs, milk, and flour to begin making pancakes. I whisked the mixture together before heating the oven and grabbing some butter. I put a small amount into the pan, getting read to fry.I poured the mixture in before flipping it over once golden and repeating on the other side. I then placed it on a tray in the oven to keep warm. At the weekends we have breakfast as a pack family. Aka with our Beta’s and Gammas and any mates and kids that they have. Which meant I was cooking up a feast. Rosa, thank the goddess, came to help me with the bacon, scrambled eggs and sausages. Whilst the kids were happy with ju

    Aurora POV I shake off the shiver that crawls up my spine. I’m just letting Caleb’s vision get to me. He didn’t go into any of the details, so I don’t know when this is supposed to happen, but I’m 99.9% sure it isn’t now. From the look on Luca’s face, though I am worried. Is he able to pick that we are acting differently or does he know something else?I’m pulled back into the present when Violet crashes into my legs, squeezing tight. “Mummy, can I have strawberries and cream on my pancake,” she gushes, jumping up and down on the balls of her feet. “Ooo actually, can I have bacon with it too and a sausage?” she asks, as I blink a few times. What is it and this kid with her weird food combos? Feeling too tired to argue, I just nod as she jumps up and down excitedly. “Yessss!”I tell her to sit up at the bench when Oliver and Logan come forward for their pancakes. Logan has his usual or banana and honey and Oliver wanted just syrup and a small piece of bacon. I place them in front of t

    Luca POVThe house was chaotic as mum and my dads went around packing our stuff. I watched their flurry of activity whilst I sat on the edge of my bed. Dad was still lecturing me about all the ways I needed to behave. “Your the future alpha of this pack don’t let me, down bud,” he grumbled as he packed my pjs, shorts, t-shirt and a few books in a bag for me. I could see mum doing the same for Violet and Logan in the other room. My lip twitched as I watched her. I felt bad. She had never used her shield on me. The worst part was when I lost my temper I saw she looked afraid. Of me.Now they are all leaving us with our neighbours to go to some stupid meeting. “Why do you have to go?” I grumbled. I liked my room. My space. I didn’t want to be in someone else’s home for longer than necessary. Dad let out a sigh, running his hands through his red hair. “We have been over this, bud. We have a meeting that we need to go to. You’re in charge whilst we are away.” He clamped his hand down on my

    Caleb POV The alphas of the other packs had finally all responded, and we were able to meet. It had felt like an age waiting for all of them to reply. After the vision … I wanted this meeting to come sooner rather than later. The problem was, I did keep second guessing myself and the situation. Would I do something to cause my vision to become a reality? Was there still time for it to change?We had picked a neutral meeting point for our conclave meeting. We were headed to Lupusburg. It’s a werewolf city. It hosts a number of our universities and, whilst other species do reside there; they are very few. It’s a long 9 and a half hour drive sitting between the Iron Claw pack and the Howlers Pack. The city is sleek, steel and glass stretching to the clouds. It’s nestled between the valley of mountains, which is probably why it is one of the safer werewolf towns. The weather is generally mild, but today it is pelting the car with heavy drops of rain. It made the city seem cold and impers

    Caleb POVAs we enter the meeting room, several of the alphas are already here. There is a large mahogany table the reeks of polish and reflects the skyline from the glare of the windows. Dark leather seats surround the table. A selection of glasses and water already provided, along with a handful of snacks. The hum of chatter stops as we enter, all eyes turning to us.Strider, the alpha from the Stormborn pack, is leaning back in one of the seats. His lips sneer as he greets us. “You’re late,” he gripes as we move through the meeting room. Strider isn’t a bad guy, but when his mate used to do the nasty with Ethan and had begged him to make her his luna, you can kind of see why he has an issue playing nice. Alphas aren’t exactly known to become best buds with their mate’s ex-lover.“We’re on time. You're just early,” Ethan quips as I cut him a look, not wanting him to piss him off before we have even begun. Strider scoffs, shaking his head with a look of disgust. His eyes soften, howe

    Caleb POVAs I walk around the corner, I hear hushed voices before they all stop talking completely. Henry is the alpha of the Ironclad pack. He normally agrees with a lot of our suggestions, and I would generally say he is an ally of our pack. With him is Alex from the Nightfire pack. Alex is hard to read. He’s not a bad alpha, but neither is he a good one. He sits in the middle, generally hoping to go unnoticed and, for that reason, I don’t like the guy. Plus, his hair is always oiled back. He has a dad bod, which, for an alpha, is unacceptable. Alphas are the strongest in the pack, the best fighters. Having a pot belly implies his standards are slipping.“Gentlemen,” I greet as they nod. Henry gives me a firm nod as a greeting. Alex sucks his teeth, his ‘greeting’ a sneer. Klaus is also with them, the alpha of the Obsidian Pack. I don’t know a lot about Klaus, there is never anything from the rumour mill and even when Sabastian has searched their pack’s files he is squeaky clean. “

    Caleb POV “Thank you for all making the journey as you know -” Aurora continues speaking, but I zone her out listening to Silas’s thoughts.“God, she loves to talk.” He drolls tapping his fingers on the desk as he nods in agreement at what Aurora is saying. “She parades like an ‘alpha’, but she’s just a bitch in heat with a harem. I’d shut her up the right way. The girl must love cock. I would have those pretty lips wrapped around my shaft 24/7, like the thirsty slut she is. Whatever keeps her quiet and her pussy wet,” he continues as I slip out of his head.My fingers scrunch into a fist, and I hold back the growl that is brewing inside. I can’t release it, no matter how much I might want to. Our gifts are not commonly known, although it is getting harder to conceal after the few battles we have faced between packs. If I let me growl out, I would have to explain why and I can’t say, because Silas wants to fuck my mate. Mentally, I rip his eyes out and slice his dick off. Then, for h

    Caleb POV I just can’t think of the motive behind why Uriel would be hiding something? The Moonshadow pack is small. They need this alliance more than anyone. Uriel is a fair alpha. He’s tough, but just. What does he want with our son?I’m just about to slip out from his mind when I feel the barrier melt away like ice and I get snippets of his thoughts. “Son,” then more static. “Death,” before the last one. “Alpha.” I swallow it has to be him? I bring up all the information I have on the Moonshadow pack through my glasses, reading as quickly as I can.If there is a motive, it’s not here. He wasn’t even targeted by Aurora’s father or Jaden for that to be a reason. But this is with the gods. Could there be something else? I look through their pack history to check if they have any allegiance to Selene, our Moon Goddess. They do, plenty in fact. Surely Uriel would be on our side. For some reason, this cuts deeper than if it was Silas who was behind it.It’s almost expected of him but Ur
