Damien's pov I couldn't stop my heart from racing, every part of me wanted to stop this but I knew I couldn't, I had to let her do this. “Noli intrare malum, non transitum” she began her spell and I wondered what language it was. Latin maybe?It wasn't long after she said those words that I noticed something happen in the pool. I could feel the pull getting stronger, like it was calling out to me. She repeated the incantation and the writings on the stones lit up, making me tilt my head to the side in wonder. “Is it working?” I asked lowly so I didn't disturb her and her dad nodded with a whispered ‘yes’.Something was happening with the water, the light within it seemed to be whirling around Alari. She said the incantation again and I felt a jolt of electricity rush down my spine. Before I could question what that was, I felt the bond I had with every wolf and Lycan in the Kingdom awaken.The life force of every shifter under the Kingdom fuelled my Lycan and I could feel Roman p
Alari's pov Damien's scent was the first thing I perceived when I began to awaken from my slumber. Curling my fingers, I felt the softness of his fur and opened my eyes to find his big Lycan head on my lap, snoring softly.A sense of warmth washed over me as I watched my mate's majestic, sleeping, Lycan form. He looked so cute, I wanted to bite him!I could also feel him more distinctly, and we seemed to be feeding off of each other, off of our bond. I could feel his life force pulsing through me so strongly, I wondered if he could feel me the same way. “Yes, I can” Roman growled softly, his eyes still closed but his subtle rubbing gave his state of consciousness away. “Hey! I thought I put up a wall so you couldn't invade my mind” I playfully rolled my eyes but was genuinely curious to know how he was able to break through my mental wall. Could it be the current state of our bond? It felt a lot more powerful, and I'd never felt so connected to him. I could literally feel his
Damien's povRoman had never handed control back so easy or quickly, he knew too well he couldn't help and didn't want to waste time bickering. Putting my pants on in record time, I held her hair back and rubbed her back as she threw up all she ate… well, barely ate. I used my shirt to wipe the corners of her mouth when she was done and she got a good whiff of it. “Your scent is calming” she smiled a little and I took her into my arms.“Are you okay?” I asked once she'd settled, nose buried in my neck.“Yeah, a little, I don't know what happened. I was fine one second and then, I was falling” she said, her breathing a little taxed. “Urg, I'm so tired all of a sudden” she groaned, worrying me more. “Has your blood work come back yet? It's been a while” Pearl said, reminding me of their presence, and that call that'd slipped my mind. “Fuck, yeah, the doctor did call, yesterday before all the crazy, I'm sorry I forgot” I said, kissing her forehead and she gave me a lazy smile. “We
Alari's pov “Oh my fucking Goddess!” Pearl screamed, getting up from her chair. “Language” mom teased and I smiled at her, rubbing my flat stomach. “You said godmother, she said godmother!” She screamed the last part, looking at everyone else to confirm. Jumping up and down, she finally skipped her way to me and hugged me… a little too tight.“There won't be any godmothering if you choke me to death” I exaggerated my choking, to which she quickly let go.“Sorry, I'll be gentle” she said, hand stroking my hair, smile still big as ever. She looked like a ray of sunshine on a cold, cloudy day when she smiled like that. “Congratulations sweetheart” dad said with tears in his eyes, which brought tears to my eyes.“Congratulations Alpha, Luna” Mason bowed, smiling fondly.“Thank you Mason” I smiled back.“Do we all understand that this can't leave this room? We have a spy problem and we can't have the wrong people knowing” Damien said, putting a hole in the bubble I was floating in. “Y
Valerian’s pov I rushed into my home as the wind picked up rather rapidly and the sky was darkening quite fast; it looked like there was going to be a big storm. ”This can’t be a good sign” my wife said looking out the kitchen window. A sudden storm on a day like this is never a good sign but we had to be hopeful, the queen was in labour. “I know love, but we must have faith in the Goddess” I said, hugging her from behind. “It should have been you! Everyone knows it should have been you delivering that baby!” she huffed, leaning her back into me. I could feel her worry, and it took everything in me to not succumb to my own. “The King knows best love” I said, rubbing my hands up and down her arms, hoping that was at least enough to calm her a little, but my efforts did nothing to soothe her, not even a little. She pulled away from my embrace and took a few steps away; throwing the dish rag she’d been using to wipe the counter into the empty sink. “The King is a fool!” she ye
Alari’s pov A sudden rush of air blew past me, chilling me to bone. And why is it so dark, I never sleep with my light off!I looked around frantically, trying to figure out where the hell I was; only to realise I was in the middle of the freaking woods! Did I sleep walk again? How did I even end up here? Oh Goddess, am I lost? But, why does this place feel so familiar? “Valerian!” a woman’s cry pulled me out of my thoughts, making me turn around just in time to see a small cabin materialize out of thin air. The door swung open and tall man came into view. He looked vaguely familiar but I couldn’t make out his face, it’s almost like his face was blurred so I couldn’t tell who it was. The man picked up the woman and brought her inside the cabin while I stood there contemplating whether I wanted to follow or not; but then again, what could possibly go wrong? It’s not like I’m in the middle of the forest with cabins popping up out of thin air and zero memory of how I get here. St
Alari‟s pov I quickly wolfed down my breakfast and washed my plate so I could leave the house. As much as I hated the pack house, it was a better trade than staying here in this awkward tension. “See you guys later” I said as I kissed them goodbye. “Have a good day honey” dad said as I dashed out of the kitchen towards the front door. “I‟ll try” I said grabbing the door knob and twisting it open. My hand moved up before I could catch the movement with my eyes, saving me from getting hit in the face. “Oh Goddess, I'm so sorry” Pearl, my best friend, well, maybe my only friend; shrieked with eyes wide open. I sighed, letting go of the hand that almost hit me. “I swear I was just trying to knock” she rushed out almost panicked, making me smile at how cute she was. “Don‟t sweat it babe” I said with a small chuckle, watching her exhale in relief. “How did you even do that?! That was some quick reflex action!” she practically yelled as we walked away from the door, fascination rep
Xavier’s pov Forever seems to be the right word for how long I’ve been gone from home. Five whole years without seeing my parents and the pack and today was finally the day I would set foot on the lands that would soon be mine. “I swear the air is even sweeter” said Jackson, my best friend and Beta, sniffing outside the window. “Sure is buddy” I said, taking a deep breathe, driving past the all too familiar trees of my pack. Fuck I missed this place. “I get that you’re excited to be home but don’t lie” Lilly laughed from the back seat and Jackson whipped around to look at her. “You act like you weren’t jumping for joy when we were at your pack!” he exclaimed, making her laugh harder and shake her head. “At least I didn’t lie about the air being sweeter!” she said back, making me smile at how good she got along with Jackson, being my girlfriend and definitely future Luna. We met at the council compound five years ago and became friends instantly. As the only child and heir to he
