Maverick pov

“Liberty, Liberty you’re a mystery….”I mumble to myself, somewhat proud of my goddess awful rhyme, “How do you know the things you know? Who are you?” She seems to be a constant presence in my mind. It’s annoying. I don’t understand what’s going on.

/Things don’t add up with the mystery named Liberty,/ Gunner agrees with me using my pun.

We both have been thinking about her a lot. There is an unexplainable pull towards her but she’s not our mate. Twice we’ve gotten close enough to smell her.

Last night we were sleeping when we suddenly woke up and felt the urge to go outside to where the competition was going on. I shifted into Gunner. His white patches show my scars. On any other given day don’t mind that they show. I’ve healed from nasty wounds, they’re badges of honour. But now they reflect the moonlight and people who know me can easily recognise me.

But fate served me well. As far as I could tell no one recognised me. The patrols that York had his father deploy we

  • Thrown Back by the Moon Goddess   22. One step closer

    Maverick povAfter the one on one battle disguised as spar with Hartley I have come to realise that I need to prove my worth to my father and the kingdom. They seem to think I’m a pushover who locks himself up to avoid people. Black Forest Campus the place where I'm going to prove I'm worthy of becoming king when my father steps down. I don’t want to be involved with all the alpha children who all clique together in the Royal Lodge Campus trying to suck up to me. Hartley loves all the females throwing themselves at him and the males who want to win his favour for future benefits. I bet some of them would even offer their fated mates to Hartley so they get more power as an alpha. The Red Hills Campus where mostly lycans attend isn’t any better. Lycans are just more arrogant than werewolves. So I settled for the Black Forest Campus. Most students there don’t want to become alpha’s, or if they do want to they mostly lack the lineage. So sucking up just isn’t as common here. Also not

    Liberty pov“I never expected Viera and Verity to split and go to a different campus,” Madeline says in between bites. “Mmm, I think that they chose based on their obsession with the two princes. Viera is convinced she’ll be Prince Maverick’s mate and our future queen. Verity is convinced Prince Hartley is her future mate and she will become our future queen.” I respond. “True. I hope neither becomes queen, they'd be horrible rulers,” Madeline thinks out loud. Viera choosing the Black Forest Campus while Verity chose to attend the Golden Lodge Campus is the same as in my previous life. Most things are the same but there are also differences, bigger and smaller. One of the bigger differences seems to be that I am not mated to Hartley this time. We met on campus and not during the trials. Mostly because I wasn’t that impressive during my first attempt. /We don’t know if we aren’t mated to Hartley this time. Maybe we just didn’t find out yet because he too uses something to suppress

  • Thrown Back by the Moon Goddess   20. Cannon fodder

    Liberty povMy last week home with my parents has flown by. We spent a lot of time talking about how to deal with the beta family. The only ‘evidence’ we have on them is that the rogues attack less often when Beta Carlo is patrolling and if they attack during his patrol they are less fierce and quickly retreat. The Rogue attack led by Viera during the trials is my word against hers. The anonymous savior is still anonymous so we can not ask him to testify. So all we can do now is be very careful. It’s frustrating to not be able to do anything but it’s good that my parents and Cooper are at least aware of the plotting against them in this life. The goodbyes were teary.Now Madeline and I stand before the main building of the Black Forest Campus. Anxious to start this new chapter. I know MacKenzie won’t be here as she attends the Golden Lodge. But for now she’ll be safe especially as she and I are not associated. The main building is an old half timbered country house with a thatched r

    Liberty povThat evening Madeline and I celebrated our win together. We hung out in the Inn, drinking ale and enjoying a large meal. We’d have loved MacKenzie to join but she wasn’t allowed to join. In Hartley’s words, ‘You’ve had enough time off to enjoy yourself. Now it’s back to work and the order of the day.’MacKenzie never asked to join us, she wasn’t training for it either. She was volunteered by Hartley. I’m not sure if it was meant to make fun of her or hinder us. I’m not even sure this was initiated by Candy after we refused to have her on our team. One of the things I never figured out in my previous life is when and how did they start planning to be together? I assume, maybe hope is the more honest term, that their ‘love affair’ started after our mating. That he once upon a time loved me, but I know that he likely never loved me. I was a means to an end. He wanted me because as his fated mate I made him stronger. I was too love struck and too naive at the time to see it.

  • Thrown Back by the Moon Goddess   17. Anonymous saviour

    Liberty povA hand is placed on my shoulder causing me to jump. Gasping, I open my eyes and look straight into MacKenzie's friendly face. It takes me a few seconds to get my bearings back. I was dreaming. I get up and take my place on the log to guard Madeline and MacKenzie. Sitting and staring at the stars I get the strong feeling that it wasn’t a dream it was a vision. would I have seen more if MacKenzie hadn’t woken me up? Now I don’t know if it was a warning or not. Based on the feeling of being watched I’m tempted to perceive it as a warning. In the distance I hear the leaves rustle but there’s no wind. I could be an animal. Curiosity gets the better of me and I quietly get up to investigate the source of the noise. /We should wake Madeline and tell her. We’re leaving them unguarded…/ Naveah tries to reason with me. /I don’t want to wake her if it’s a deer or some other animal,/ I defend my recklessness.Naveah is on high alert, her sense of smell and hearing picking up nothin
