Chapter 22
Aiden POV
The feeling of the power radiating through my body was intoxicating. I had never felt so alive. The Moon Goddess was aiding Selene and Evangeline in training Blake and I to properly wield our new magic. We had no idea how much time was passing in the mortal realm, so we needed to act quickly and get back to the pack as soon as possible.
My father was likely losing his mind with the sudden disappearance of both the future Alpha and Beta. Although, I had no idea how the hell I was going to explain all this when we returned. I still didn’t fully understand it myself.
“So… this war?” Blake began, “Why is it the druid pack or so critical? There are thousands of werewolf packs, why us?”
“Because Highlander, they were born from the most powerful ancient magic, and the most knowledgeable of the ancient people.” Said the Moon Goddess, nonchalantly.

He had done it. For the first time in our life, I stood separate from Liana. I took a step toward her and ruffled her thick coat as she nuzzled me in return. She then turned her regal form toward Aiden, bowing in submission. “Do you think….” he began hesitantly, “That is… Ronan wants out.” “I don’t see why not.” I responded thoughtfully. That was all I could manage. It stood to reason that if he had manifested Liana’s spirit corporeally, that he could do the same with his own wolf. “Try it…” I looked on in awe as Aiden harnessed the spirit magic of the Druids. I saw the moment Ronan’s spirit was extracted and it took the form of a magnificent black wolf. Ronan bowed his head submissively toward Aiden, a gesture of thanks, before he stalked toward Liana. They each looked at us for permission before taking off into the forest.

Selene POV “Most of the vampire legends you would have heard as a child are true. But there is often a great amount of misinformation when it comes to how Vlad Tepesh came to be the original Vampire.” “He didn’t sell his soul to the devil in exchange for power?” “Not exactly… He tried, and he might have succeeded if the blood sacrifice he used to attempt to summon the devil wasn’t a werewolf.” I looked at Aiden, hoping he would be able to read between the lines, but the confusion on his face forced me to go into more detail. “By killing a werewolf, he summoned my mother. She threatened to take his life for killing one of her children but he bargained. He swore fealty to her in exchange for the power he sought. Initially, he had more in common with the werewolves than the vampires we now know. He was a fierce warrior who won many great battles in the name of the moon god

Aiden POV Selene and I lay panting on the grass. I was still insider her, trying to catch my breath. The sound of the panting grew louder as we turned our heads to see our wolves standing a few feet away, with amused expressions on their dog-like faces. "Looks like we weren't the only ones enjoying our alone time." Ronan's voice flooded my mind. Interesting, I hadn't considered that we could still communicate when he was in a separate, bodily form. "Good, you're back," I said, my voice edged with sarcasm as I rolled off my mate. "I'm afraid I'll need you both to return to your spirit forms. We are to return to the mortal realm." The wolves nuzzled each other, Ronan licking his mate's cheek before both wolves bowed their heads in submission. I summoned my magic. It was easier to connect this time as I watched their physical forms fade and their spirits implant themselves back in our minds. "You are astou

Selene POVA flick of my wrist and I could've snapped that pup's neck. But I knew it was important for my mate's status to defend me from the males in this pack.In the mortal realm, it is rare for wolves to pursue a mated female, they honour the mate-bond and enjoy casual trysts with unmated she-wolves. But I am no she-wolf. The moon magic that exists in my blood is difficult for wolves to resist, mated or not. Aiden doesn't know that the one thing that could cause a male from his pack to challenge him is if it desired me badly enough.Aiden would champion any opponent, of that I was certain. He is an alpha, blessed with the old magic. And as his third in command has recognised, he is more than a mere alpha, he is king.But it would hurt him to kill a member of his pack, it goes against his oath as an Alpha. He would kill for me, and I hated that I felt sure that if I spent enough time amongst his people, he would eventually have to.

Selene POV As we sat, crammed on the antique chesterfield couch that sat in the corner of the Alpha's chambers, I took a moment to scan my surroundings. An Alpha's chambers were designed to radiate power. This was done by both design and furnishing. The room had one entry and exit point, and the Alpha's desk faced the entry directly. In the corner, a large, open fire sat crackling away— a beverage tray sitting nearby, adorned with expensive Irish whiskey. The chesterfield, where we were seated, ran along the opposite wall. In the mortal realm, even where werewolves were concerned, money and possessions were symbols of power and Alpha Donal's chambers were exactly that. Finally, having had enough of being wedged between my sister and my mate, I stood up, causing the Alpha who had been perched at his desk, eyeing some kind of correspondence with a furrowed brow to finally break his concentration and look our way.

Selene POV"What the devil is that?" Cian asked as we approached the forest. I knew he was referring to the call Aiden and I had heard earlier. Him hearing it as well confirmed my suspicions— Cian was of Fae blood."What is what?" Aiden questioned, glancing at me and raising a brow."That sound, coming from the forest, I've never heard such a thing.""It is the fae... or, what's left of them. Fairies, I believe they are more commonly known as now. The only trace of a once proud and powerful race left in your realm.""I'm not sure why that should astound me, I'm a werewolf in Celtic Ireland, of course, there are fucking fairies." Cian scoffed as we reached the forest edge."Ronan, Liana, keep guard here. If we have not returned in an hour, fetch Blake, Evangeline... and my father."As we crossed the threshold into the forest, the path we had entered on disappeared before us. I turned to look behind and the fores

Aiden POVMy senses were in overdrive as we retreated from the forest back to the packhouse.Thankfully, Cian had managed to convince the fae to come with us, but I could feel their magic weakening the further we fled from the forest. I understood now why they were hesitant to leave, their power is great, but tied to the forest and without the source to draw on, they would be working with limited reserves.Liana and Ronan led the warriors who had shifted in flanking us as we made our way across the exposed field between the forest edge the safety of the packhouse gates.I always felt powerful with Ronan as my wolf, but I never anticipated how powerful I would feel not having to choose a form. Having him be able to fight by my side, and still feel the soul we shared was invigorating. I wondered if Selene felt the same about Liana.We bound through to packhouse gates and swiftly shut them behind us as the warriors piled in. Ronan ap

Selene POVAs Aiden thrust passionately inside me, I could feel his worries through the bond.The sex was primal, even with our wolves still in their corporeal forms, I felt like I was making love to more beast than man. As my back hit the wall I felt him reach his peak inside me as his member throbbed and jerked and his breathing became slower and less ragged in my ear.I ran my hand down his muscular back, kissing him fiercely when he finally met my gaze."You have no idea how badly I needed that..." Aiden purred, his low, gravelly tone sending goosebumps up my arms and a distinct flutter in my core."Do you need it again, mo mhac tíre dubh? I want more..." I purred in response.I felt his grin against the skin of my neck as he gently removed himself from between my legs, kissing his way down my body before falling to his knees. He nestled h
