Rite of Power 7: Divine Dreams
‘Where the fuck have you been?’ I growled angrily at my other half, not caring that Dmitri could hear the exchange, but also feeling a sense of relief. ‘Dormiam liberos meos et somnia mecum,’ her melodic voice enchanted us, relaxing our minds and bodies until our eyes closed and we were whisked away from the physical world. I opened my eyes to find the four of us, the Goddess, Dmitri, his wolf and myself, standing the in the middle of our meadow at the center of the woods, where our pack met to shift at each full moon. Even though we were on the waxing side of the new moon, the bright white orb hung in the inky sea of stars above us in her full glory. Dmitri’s wolf gave a deep bow to my twin, her hair silver and straight instead of red curls like mine, but still the same face and body. Naturally, none of us were wearing any clothes. She gave him a nod, and he moved to slide up against my side, positioning me between Dmitri and his wolf
Rite of Power 8: Together
I didn’t get much sleep, crawling out of bed before the sun even peeked over the horizon. Dmitri on the other hand had had no problem falling back asleep, but was still a pain in the ass to get out of bed. He tried to convince me to stay in bed just a little longer, but I needed to do something, anything except sit still while my thoughts swallowed me. The key was getting out of the bed and putting clothes on to deter his dirty mind. Nathan was nowhere to be seen as we arrived in the sparring room, but I usually wasn’t up quite this early. ‘Are you sure that you want to still train this morning?’ Nathan’s voice hit our minds, making us stop dead in our tracks. We had started to run my usual warm up drills while waiting on him to join us. ‘Wow, new luxury bed and spacious rooms and he’s suddenly late for everything,’ I teased, making Dmitri grin. ‘We’re already warmed up, what’s taking you so long?’ I could tell he was annoyed by my ban
Rite of Power 9: Dmitri
It would never cease to amaze me, the soft gentle glow that emanated from the perfectly smooth porcelain skin of the creature that slept peacefully in the bed beside me. I would’ve believed her to be a goddess even if I hadn’t known she was literally a goddess, or a piece of one. The concept gave me headaches if I thought about it too much. I blinked; willing my wolf’s gaze away. The glow faded as he begrudgingly separated his sight from my own. She still looked impossibly perfect. And she was mine. “Are you really going to lay there and stare at me?” Her sleepy green eyes looked up at me from where her head rested on my chest. The sweetest little mewling sounds escaped her lips as she stretched against me. My body was already responding to her movements. It didn’t matter how many times I satiated that primal need inside me, I always craved more of her. It was as if my cock had a mind of its own, already getting hard, eager to plunge i
Rite of Power 10: High Tension Tea
The four of us stood together on the front steps, waiting for my uncle to make his appearance. I was going to do my damnedest to charm him out of our lives. That is if I could keep my temper under control, and Dmitri’s. I couldn’t tell if he realized it or not, but I could feel him chomping at the bit for a little violence. I should’ve had Nathan find a way to let him blow off some steam in training this morning instead of tossing a ball around for his own amusement. I rolled my shoulders back as the black car came into view at the end of the road. It was time to put on my happy face and play nice, the chatter in our group link was echoes of the same sentiment. Dmitri’s arm curled around my waist, pulling me against him as the car pulled up. His smile showed off all his teeth as he climbed out of the car. He looked at all of standing there waiting for him, “I hardly expected you to greet me at the door again.” The car pulled away as he shut the door an
Rite of Power 11: The Aether
Once the Alpha of all Alphas took his leave, the rest of the evening passed in the typical fashion. We had dinner in the main dining room with the other pack members living in the pack house. Nathan led a group training session with me, Sophie and our female enforcers; they were learning faster than he’d expected. We had our nightly close of day meeting, to discuss the day and tomorrow’s schedule. We talked less about my uncle than I thought we would’ve, he was spending yet another night in a hotel in a nearby city, outside our pack’s territory. By the time it was just Dmitri and I left in our suite, it was nearing midnight. I’d curled up in the corner of the leather couch that sat before the wall of bookshelves in our sitting room, barely registering our Betas leaving as my eyelids tried to drag themselves down over my eyes. “Selene,” Dmitri’s deep voice beside my ear sent a warm tingle down my spine. “You can’t keep burning the candle at both ends, P
Rite of Power 12: Wolves & Men
My eyelids fluttered open at the sound of Nathan’s voice in my head, ‘I’m supposed to try and talk you out of training this morning, and he all but ordered it last night because you seemed so tired.’ Nathan had never seemed to like me, but he at least seemed to respect my decision to push myself when it came to training. It’d been a source of contention between him and his Alpha, but he was the only one who remained impartial about my status and had enough skill to train me in the way that I needed. ‘Let’s let him have this one, just for today. If you’re still up for an early morning session, you could gather up Lalita and the girls for an impromptu set.’ If there was anyone he liked less than me, it was the female shifters I’d chosen to have trained as my enforcers, even if he did agree that strategically, they were less conspicuous out in public. ‘If it’s all the same, I’d like to run the perimeter this morning and check in with the
Rite of Power 13: Return to Sender
The smell hit my nostrils before I saw what everyone was standing around staring at. It was a familiar scent that made my blood boil and my teeth clench involuntarily. Logically, I knew that this pitiful wretch was no threat to me in any way that mattered, but there was a history and memories I’d never fully escape. Choking back my hatred, Dmitri and I walked away from the dirt road we’d arrived on towards the small gathering by the perimeter fence. I couldn’t believe what I was seeing, and everyone standing around had the same expression on their faces. She was stripped down to her expensive lacey underwear, bound and gagged in the exact same way I had been when I’d first been brought to the pack house. Her hair had also been died a bright red color and curled into tight ringlets. Dmitri tried to move in my way, but it was too late, I’d already seen her. I looked to Nathan for an explanation. “The first patrol found her like this just before sunrise,”
Rite of Power 14: Nathan's Mate
I didn’t want to give him a chance to explain himself. He’d already had the chance to explain himself every day for the past few months. And now I felt completely betrayed by this secret that he’d kept. That they all had kept. “You should go find out what the scout found if anything,” I glared at Dmitri. I’d gotten over the fact that he’d been with other women before me, but this was a level of betrayal I couldn’t see past. “Nathan, you’re with me,” turned around and started to storm out of the little corridor, the air getting to thick in the small space to breathe. “And where are you going?” he followed us out into the main hall, anger, hurt and fear flooding our bond. “Anywhere you aren’t,” I glared up at him, pinching off the flow of emotions between us so I wouldn’t have to feel guilty about his feelings right now. I felt justified in my anger and I wanted to let it burn a while longer. I gave Nathan a meaningful look, “You will no
