Hartley pov

Over the past weeks I’ve started to realise that my biggest mistake has been spending so much time with Verity. She was an amazing fuck until her sister died and her father messed up.

I should have taken Candy up on her offer the first time she visited me the first time. Now I have a clingy mourning Verity who doesn’t want to have sex with me. Her father is stressed out about the investigation and rightfully so.

When I spoke to Xander and York the first time they refused to update me on the status of the investigation. So I went to my father. Father first wanted to know why I was asking. Of course I told him that I wanted to avenge Uncle John. Of course father then ordered Xander and York to brief me on the investigation.

They have no hard evidence against Carlo but he is their prime suspect. Apparently he was heard whispering to Viera's corpse that he would avenge her. He was also seen glaring at Uncle John. It’s not a lot to go on but it’s the most logical lead. Uncle J

  • Thrown Back by the Moon Goddess   117. Madeline's mate

    Madeline povStaying behind in Alpha Claude’s pack was uncomfortable at first. Everyone was nice and friendly in Alpha Claude’s presence but I was anxious that that would change when he and Liberty would leave. To my happy surprise the pack didn’t change under Beta Ivan’s lead. It just shows how rotten Beta Carlo was. Beta Ivan just runs the pack in the same way Alpha Claude does. In nothing does he seem to be hungry for a higher status or the Alpha position. I continue to train with the warriors and I’m starting to make new friends here. If I never return to Howling Moon I would, of course, be sad. I love my parents dearly and Liberty is my best friend. When I think of my academy life Martin springs to mind. They say absence makes the heart grow fonder but I haven’t thought much about him lately. I’m glad I agreed with my wolf to wait longer before taking him as my chosen mate. As usual I’m hanging out with the other warriors after training. Suddenly people start getting restless.

  • Thrown Back by the Moon Goddess   116. Joint forces

    Liberty pov “I presume all went well as you’re back without MacKenzie,” Dad welcomes me when I enter the kitchen. I can see he is relieved that and back and that MacKenzie is not back.“Yes, all went well. She was scared at first but when I left she and Olwyn were fine.”“We need to talk through possible scenarios after dinner,” Dad calls after me as I make my way upstairs to shower and change into clean clothes.Cooper, Dad, Gamma, Heath and I sit in Dad’s office to discuss the options. We need to have plans for different scenarios. Claude and the rogues might not be on time or he might not come at all. King Truett might not want to send men to fight his son. Though my dream told me the message would at least reach Claude in time. Though I did not see Claude or Cassius fighting I did see Madeline.I share my experience of fighting zombie rogues. They worry about Rosebelle being present this time. We plan on leaving her for Morgan but we don’t know how to recognise her so we could a

  • Thrown Back by the Moon Goddess   115. Unwelcome

    Liberty povAs I watch Maverick leave a heavy feeling grows in my stomach. Mom wraps her arm around me and hugs me from the side. When she wipes a tear from my cheek I pull myself together. We’ve come a long way and we won’t make it if I throw myself a pity party now. Dad is leaving a message for Claude hoping that he will quickly collect it and can come to our aid. If we’re lucky he’ll be here the day after tomorrow. I hope we have more than two days to prepare. We sit at the dining table and chat a little more, making plans and going through different options. MacKenzie and Mum are quietly listening while they’re crocheting. “I’m going to bed, MacKenzie, we're getting up early tomorrow to bring you to Olwyn,” I say as I get up. I fall asleep easily but not long after I notice that I’m having a dream. It’s been awhile since I had a forecasting dream. Though this is the first time that I’m partly conscious and know that this is a dream. I’m watching a fierce battle. I can even see

  • Thrown Back by the Moon Goddess   114. Homeward bound

    Maverick povThe moment I step over Howling Moons borders I feel eyes upon me. It doesn’t feel like Liberty. If she were watching me I would feel love, comfort and worry through the bond. The eyes don’t make me feel uncomfortable, which is strange. Maybe Harrison is following me or having a warrior follow me to keep me safe or to report to him? The eyes seem to come from the forest and not from the pack. Which would make more sense. Unless Harrison sent someone ahead before escorting me to the borders. I stare hard, focusing on the dark trying to see if I can catch the telltale glint of eyes, wolf, lycan or human in the moonlight. Nothing reflects the light. Does that mean that I’m being watched by a magical being or by someone who is extremely good at tracking?Living with the rogues, even if it was only for a relatively short time has brought me and Gunner closer together and has honed our instincts. I contemplate turning round and calling out to whoever is following and watching

  • Thrown Back by the Moon Goddess   113. Preparations

    Maverick povAnxiously I await the return of Cooper and Liberty. Hidden away in Harrison and Shania’s home I have nothing to do than watch the clock and calculate. How long would it take them to get from Howling Moon to The Silent Night Hawk and back? Could they already be back? While Harrison went out to lead the warrior training and go about his day as normal as possible Shania is stuck with me and MacKenzie. She has hundreds of little things that keep her busy. She started a stew in the morning, did a ton of laundry, and drank coffee with me and MacKenzie. Shania prepared lunch for the four of us, MacKenzie seemed to know what to do helping Shania with almost everything. I sit around and feel helpless, useless and frustrated. Every now and then they smile at me, as if they are trying to reassure me. Based on the amount of food she is preparing for dinner Shania is expecting them back in time. It’s late in the afternoon when her eyes glaze over and a wide smile spreads across her

  • Thrown Back by the Moon Goddess   112. Sanctuary

    Liberty povCooper and I slink into the shadows, we want to slip out of the pack unnoticed. We don’t know if Beta Carlo had accomplices and if so who they are. The only pack member I know not to trust is Danny. Though I’m not sure if Danny started hating me for who I was or am or because Verity told him to hate me. Either way I’m sure after the humiliation of passing out at the selection trials and by doing so losing his spot at the academy. We manage to evade the pack’s border patrols. Before we left we discussed shifting but as Naveah has a white belly and silver sides she stands out. The silver parts of her coat glistens in the moonlight and her blue eyes reflect light. Making her easy to spot but also very recognisable. I’ve never seen a wolf like her nor heard of another wolf having such colouring.On our way to the Silent Night Hawk I’m incredibly tense. The night seems quieter than usual. No owls or barking foxes. No death cries of rabbits when they get caught by a predator.
