Gemma POV
I have no idea what I was thinking when I invited him to shower with me, but I knew that I needed to rush myself into being okay with having sex with him. I didn’t know any other way to get him naked without sounding like a total pervert. Like ‘hey Keen strip I need to see you naked’ yeah that wasn’t going to sound crazy, so I took a chance for once and it worked. Us being naked together was a good place to start, but I didn’t realize how intimate the whole act of showering would be. It helped with making me feel more comfortable with him, but it also made me nervous that I was only going to be hurt again.
I could feel myself falling head over heels for my big bad Alpha, and I couldn’t push myself past the fact that not long ago he just wanted to use me as a plaything. I needed to get over that though because whether he didn’t want me before, we were going to have to have sex whenever my heat started.

Alpha Keen POV I didn’t think I would miss her as much as I am, but now that I’m standing in the ballroom greeting guest, I notice myself glancing at the stairs every few moments. When I get a hint of the scent my heart starts to race, and when I see her come into view at the top of the stairs everything besides her fades into the background. I can’t tare my eyes away from and in that moment it’s as if it’s only her and I, and as my Queen elegantly prowls down the stairs towards me she takes my breath away. My smile is beaming at my mate, but as I’m about to walk towards her I catch mood shifting as a frown replaces her smile. I can’t help but become confused as I mouth to her ‘what’s wrong?’ She glares at me moving her eyes the spot to the right of me, and I glance to my right coming inches away from Madison’s face. She has an inhuman smirk that looks like she’s just claimed her first kill, and that kill is me. Her sadistic smile grows
Gemma POV As I can feel Keen’s eyes watching me leave I can feel the pain that his gaze alone holds, and even though I can’t help but feel doubt yet again creeping in to our mate bond Westley needs me right now. I can’t help but look back at Keen though and when I see his frown as our eyes meet I want so badly to run back into his embrace, but the chance of him hurting me again holds me back. I didn’t realize that outside of our Quarters being together is more difficult then I could of imagined. As I am walking Westley out of the ballroom I can’t help but feel the tug of my mate bond, and the wish that we could of just stayed in the moment that we had in the bathroom this morning. We enter the private room off the ballroom that was set up for me and Keen in case we needed a break from the ceremony. When he told me about it I knew it wasn’t for us, but more for me in case I got overwhelmed by the entire pack which wasn’t as bad as I thoug
Alpha Keen POV This is seriously fucked up, and it’s hard for me to wrap my mind around the fact that the Royal Coven manipulated us into doing exactly what they wanted. My father had sent my mate and the future Luna away from our pack so she would be safe, but really he had sent her away without knowing that’s exactly what the people threatening her wanted. That King didn’t want her bonding with any of us so she wouldn’t have any ties to our pack when he came and stole her away in the night like a proper thief. I didn’t want to leave Gemma alone with the mystery woman who claimed to be her sister, but I made sure Delta Everett was standing guard with two of my best warriors. I know it probably hurt my Rose bud, but I really don’t want to ever loose control of myself around her. Gemma’s dad was handling Madison down in the dungeons, and I thought informing him of what his mate did to her own daughter probably wasn’
Gemma POV When we got to the clearing Jennifer began to set up the reversal spell, and by the end she had me standing in the middle of a circle with two crescent moons on either side. She elegantly placed what I think was sage and a black salt mixture in this diagram I sat in the middle of. Then she moved around placing clear quarts at certain spots, and amethyst at other points. It felt like I was in the middle of a teenage drama starring my badass half-sister as the lead witch, and at any moment a demon was going to grace us with their presence. Before I know it she’s given me a tiger’s eye pendant to wear around my neck, an agate stone to hold in my left hand, and a large chrysocolla stone to hold in my right hand. After having been told I was a werewolf less then a week ago nothing seems impossible anymore, but having a half-sister who is a witch seems more believable then me being able to turn into a wolf. “Okay Gemma, I’m r
Gemma POV Yes, I was glowing, but not in the dewy beautiful way that naturally magnificent women do. It was more of a luminescence that was radiating out of me lighting up a small area around me. “Jennifer, when will this whole glowing thing stop?” She looks at me puzzled, like I had just asked her the dumbest question. “Sorry I keep forgetting you’re not educated on the supernatural world. It will dissipate when you want it to, I mean it is your powers that radiate the light not something else.” I cock my head side ways at her, “just close your eyes and sense your power. Hell most neophytes give their powers a color so do that. Do you have a color?” I nod “yellow seems like most appropriate.” She laughs “sure okay, now as you sense it let it take shape slowly so you can feel it’s full range of power. When you get the full picture of it’s power slowly start to shrink it’s reach, condensing your power into a small ball. Visualize a treasure chest or a safe, and
Alpha Keen POVWhen Gemma walked into the pack house last Monday and I felt our mate bond for the first time I thought that was intense. The thing is that was nothing compared to how I felt when I breached the tree line of the training field, and saw the angel presented to me by the Moon Goddess.Growing up everyone talked about the fated mate bond, and the sheer intensity that it brought to a werewolf’s relationship. Alpha’s and Luna’s fated mate bond in our pack were different than the average werewolf, because once an Alpha’s Luna is born their bond begins to take shape. For other wolves they had to wait until they were eighteen, and even then they had to search for their mates. Other packs didn’t pass the Luna title as we do because it was a blessing bestowed upon us which led to more conflict than I would like to admit within our werewolf community. The biggest issues from other pacts were mostly having to
Westley POV If it wasn’t bad enough that I got a small taste of what having a fated mate truly felt like, but now I had to watch that mate who I still feel bonded to get manhandled by my womanizer brother. She is so pure, innocent, perfect, and William wasn’t worthy to breathe the air she breathes let alone touch her gorgeous skin. She should be appreciated and treated like the Queen that she truly is, but with a mate like Alpha William Keen all she’s going to get is a narcissist that will forget she’s special after he’s gotten what he wanted. I heard her half-sister talking to her about the importance of being mated and marked tonight incase the Coven King is successful at kidnapping her. Over my dead body is our asshole Alpha going to taint what should be mine. He’s not going to ruin the plan that my father and I came up with after Williams poor treatment of her when she arrived. She will be mine, and I think I’ve proved that I
Gemma POVWe’re back in the pack house a little after one in the morning, but with all the adrenaline pulsating through my body I can’t rest. Everyone around me keeps telling me that after my first shift I should be exhausted, but I feel like I could go on a five-mile run and still have energy to spare. I guess being a hybrid has its perks, and although I want to learn more about my powers my nights not over yet.After Jennifer reversed the suppression spell my powers weren’t the only thing to awaken, and with my now intensified mate bond surging like a live wire I can’t wait to finish our last tasks of the evening completing the mating process. Having sex made me nervous before, because I wasn't ready for all the emotions that come along with being so vulnerable with another person. It’s different now though, with the way that my Keen couldn’t keep his hands or lips off me it gave me a confidence bo
