“Do you know what happened to Alpha John?” I ask Maverick as we leave the dining hall to sit outside, waiting to be called back in for an interview with Beta Xander and Beta heir York.

“No, I’m going to seek my father out and ask for the details. Though I doubt he’ll be willing to share them with me at the moment”

“It would make sense if he did though. You’re a direct family member. The chances of you being involved in the assasination are low,” Madeline shares her thoughts on the matter.

“True, though father knows I’m not very fond of Uncle John and his ways he also knows that I don’t practice vigilantism. I think it’s more keeping up appearances and preventing me from accidentally sharing information with other students.”

We sit in silence, each in our own thoughts.

“If they ask anything about the rooms, just say I switched to be closer to Madeline. I think Beta Paul will have provided them with the original list. If they’re smart they might think I was the intended v

    Liberty povOver the past weeks Mary-Jane has been trying to push Mom out of the family. Luckily Dad loves Mom and hasn’t fallen for Mary-Jane attempts to seduce him. She has taken me out for lunch and brunch. She has come to watch warrior training, cheering us on as if it was a competition. I tried to keep my distance from her to not encourage her behaviour but she was undeterred. Seemingly Dad was also getting quite fed up with her. Mom was deflated. She had run around catering to her needs as much as she could to help her with her grief. But watching her try and seduce her mate had left her frustrated. Desperate to claim Dad as her mate she tried to poison Mom with Night Blooming Jasmine. How Mom survived we will never know. I want to believe it was divine intervention of the Goddess combined with my mother being a strong woman mated to a very strong and powerful Alpha. Mary-Jane had fled the house and had somehow managed to find refuge with Beta Carlo and his wife. After her

    Liberty povUnsure what to believe, I fall into some sort of catatonic state. The mate bond was severely weakened but I think I can still sense it, indicating that Maverick is still alive. But the King has issued a mourning period to mourn Mavericks death. York was broken due to losing his best friend. My heart and mind are not on the seem page. I need Maverick to be alive, I can not and will not live without him. But it seems impossible that he is still alive. But even Naveah no longer knows what to believe.As the academic year was almost over and most of the events before the start of the holiday were ceremonial events which got cancelled due to the mourning period, the holiday started early. Madeline and I travelled back to Howling Moon together. “I can’t believe he is dead,” she says just before we split to our homes. “Me neither, a part of me feels he’s still alive,” I admit. “Maybe his spirit surrounds you? As his body hasn’t been retrieved yet his soul knows no rest,” she o

    Liberty pov/Can you still feel him?/ I ask Naveah. I need her to confirm that Maverick is still here. Losing him… I don’t want to think about it./I can feel him, but the bond is weak,/ Naveah sounds pensive and I get the distinct feeling that she’s keeping something from me. /Naveah, what are you keeping from me? I have the right to know. I need to know,/ I plead with her trying to persuade her to tell me what she thinks. /I can’t say, it’s just a hunch. If I find evidence I’ll tell you. Promise./ She then retreats to the back of my mind. I let out a frustrated huff. I check the time, still another hour before my alarm goes. Closing my eyes I focus on sending love and faith through the bond. I don’t know if it works or if Maverick can feel it but it’s all I can do now. I’ve promised to wait for him. To have faith in him that he would return to me. Somehow I manage to doze off again because my alarm wakes me up. I don’t feel a gaping hole in my heart so I assume Maverick is still

    Liberty povI watch Maverick walk away. Tears running down my face. We spent almost the entire academic year as friends with benefits, girlfriend and boyfriend when we could have been mates. There were so many moments in time where I truly believed him to be my mate but was too scared to stop taking the tincture so that I would really know. But I didn’t and neither did he. We both suspected we were mates but couldn’t accept the possibility we weren’t mates so we hid behind the fake safety of the tincture. Now we’re marked and mated for a small week and that might be all the time we had. Events from my previous life aren’t guaranteed to happen again and there’s significant changes in this life. Me having a different mate being a very big one. /Being mated might also be the reason he returns this time. The timing is different and he is marked by his fated mate,/ Naveah tries to give me a more positive perspective. /I know but I have a bad feeling about this,/ I sigh.“Come, let’s g

  • Thrown Back by the Moon Goddess   74. Goodbye

    Maverick povOver the past week I’ve prepared for this. I’ve visited Olwyn and she helped me with everything I need. Liberty didn’t ask for an explanation when I asked her to not tell anyone we’re mates. She nodded in understanding. Our marks are low on the neck so they are easily hidden from sight. Hours I have spent sitting hunched over maps crafting the plans alone. I have not shared my plans with anyone this time. Just like before Liberty pressured me to be careful and vigilant. Through the bond I can feel her worry and nervousness for me and the mission. Realising that my plan can easily go sideways and this might be our last week together we sleep together every night. To my happy surprise no one has informed the administration, or the administration has not bothered to reprimand us and put an end to it. We might have going for us that we have been close all year and we’re both doing really well in classes. I look at Liberty. Her face is peaceful and I can see the light frec

  • Thrown Back by the Moon Goddess   73. Mate

    LibertyThe scar on my neck from the noose I used to hang myself tingeled when I stepped over the threshold. My eyes immediately went to the hunched figure behind the bar. She is oddly familiar but I can not lay my finger on it. I did however immediately relax. However this is we can trust her to keep us safe. She introduced herself as Morgan and pointed us to separate tables. Morgan is definitely not the name I know her by. The Silent Night Hawk is unnaturally quiet for the number of people that are present. No one looks up and even in passing you can not make out a word that is being said. Morgan has put up some strong spells. Stuart, Madeline, Martin and I had a good dinner and talked about goddess knows what. All I know is that the evening sped by. Before I knew it Cassius and Maverick stood up. We paid at the bar and left. I’m anxious to know what Maverick and Cassius discussed. But Maverick is silent. In silence we’re on our way back to Black Forest. The atmosphere is tense.
