***Mia

Steam suffocated the shower stall as I allowed my tears to run dry. My chest tighten; I couldn’t help but think about an impending war... the King who no doubt was plotting his revenge. He would not let this slide. Someone unchained me and he beat me bloody. Now to know I was claimed by his son?!!! The very son that took his eye? We had signed our death warrant.

Was it wrong to ask my mate to murder, to slaughter his own father? I felt a pang of guilt. Yes, the King was a wretched man b

    ***GiselleAll night, I had been in this shit heap. The Blue Box.Every time I got in a fight – box. Every time I mouthed off – box. Every time I refused to do chores fit for a slave – box, box, box. But when they pulled me out, my face flushed red with an impenetrable fury and always… the same ragged snarl. Same nail-biting sneer emerged. To remind them who I was.The unbearable heat of the July sun rolled in, sweltering and thick, searing the skin from my back. Pools of sweat soaked through my top as my blistered and calloused hands wrapped around the bars of my mini jail cell. But if the men of Iron Claw thought they would break me, they had another thing coming.This was a work pack, the lowliest of the packs where criminals and convicts were set to work the mines and suffocate in the grueling summer blaze. It barely rained, almost never cooled. Only a glimmer of a breeze passed once nightfall finally came. But by then, your body ached and muscles cramped, nothing that a br

    ***AriesOur wolves frolicked and ran through the forest for hours. After shifting back, we cooled off by wading in the calming pool as the falls fell at our backs. We explored each other’s bodies once again and found ourselves naked on the grassy shore, wrapped in each other’s arms.The sun warmed the glistening beads of water from our skin and I traced my fingers along the tattoos stretched down his arms. We watched as the radiant hues stretched across the edging horizon. No fear swelled in my chest. No anxiety of the witch’s return panicked my insides as it neared sunset.It was only the two of us. Finally together.He kissed my forehead and pulled me closer, as if reading my thoughts. My mind was quiet, as serene waves washed over and tickled my feet. I placed my lips softly upon his, bathing in his warm caress. I laid my head on his chest, listening to the steady rhythm of his heart. His hands began fumbling with the wet strands of my hair.“Are you… are you playing with my hair?

    ***AriesFather walked me to the foyer. Bandages wrapped around his back, pulling tight across his shoulder. He embraced me and offered a half smile. I placed a hand on his arm; I didn’t need an escort for what was about to happen. I turned, lifting my chin and walked through the double doors, out through the entrance where she waited.Giselle.She tilted her head up. Those furious eyes glared at me. Soldiers stood beside her, one on each side, as her gaze raked over me with disdain. Voice sneered, “If you’ve come for an apology, you’ll be waiting a long time.”My face was void of any emotion, silent and still. Calm washed over me and I smiled.“Not at all. I’ve come to thank you. Had you not enlisted the help of the Shadow Boys, I never would have found Reinn. He was the one person that could have killed the witch and released me from this curse,” I gleamed, my eyes dazzling with victory. She scowled.I continued, “But you… you’ll never be free of whatever Hell you’ve chosen. You’re

    ***ReinnI pressed my head to her throat, buried myself in the familiar scent of my mate. Her skin had already grown cold against my mouth. I lapped anxiously at her wound, metallic grit coating my tongue. But it wasn’t working. She wasn’t waking… wasn’t responding. Her lips turned blue. Her flesh paled, the flush of her cheeks waning.“Please Goddess! Please save my Aries!” I begged the heavens above.She was too good, too pure to die now. I had defeated the witch, cursed her to this forsaken place for all eternity but still, Aries hadn't come back to me. My hands trembled as they curled around her pallid face. Blood covered my hands as I smeared trails across her chin. I pulled her to my bare chest, enveloping her with all the warmth and energy I could muster.The Luna ran to me, dropping to her knees at the sight of her bloodied child. She held Aries’ hand as she cried into her palms. Her eyes pleaded with mine, to do something. To save her. The Luna had just gotten her back... all

    ***ReinnThe Luna screamed a blood curdling cry as her arms clung to him. He crumpled to the floor and she followed suit, unable to keep him upright.Linc and I rushed to his side as I peeled off my shirt, applying pressure to the wound. But the blood kept coming, a river of red painting the ground under him. Pained groans murmured from his mouth as the Luna wailed beside him. His skin paled.The shock in his eyes, to see the witch attack in his daughter's very own skin.“You monster,” I hissed. Red only tilted her head, amused.She pulled a vial from her dress and placed it on the altar. I lowered my gaze, pretending to remain occupied with the Alpha as she took off the top and placed it to her lips, swallowing the contents. Within seconds, Red began to seize, shaking violently as she fell to the podium floor. I raced up the altar.“Gemini, do you feel her? Do you feel Aries’ wolf?” I urged, legs mounting the steps two by two.“Barely. It won’t be long.” That meant any moment I woul

    ***ReinnI exited... more like flew through a narrow passage and finally found myself on the other side, basking in lamp light. Once I knew that thing was far behind me, I hunched over placing my hands on my knees and sucked in a deep breath. My hand was still shaking and I had to force a fist to keep it still.That thing, masked in Aries' skin... Aries' body, had been in my head, burrowing through my thoughts. Imbedded in my feelings… combing those nightmares that plagued me since I was a child. Those night terrors that kept me from sleeping more than a few hours at a time. The ones that woke me in a cold sweat.But not when I was with her. With her in my thoughts, I had no room for the past. For my regrets.I walked out and a podium stood affix with an altar in the center. Two marble pillars were placed on opposite sides of the dias. Magic illuminated the vast space, ceiling rose as high as my imagination. A thick sense of unease swallowed me from the room, invisible eyes watching m

    ***ReinnThe walls squeezed against my broad shoulders. The claustrophobia squeezed like an invisible chokehold against my windpipe. Breathing was ragged and I couldn’t get enough air into my lungs. My nails were ready to claw up the walls, to find my way out of this seemingly unending darkness. Li

    ***Luna MiaAries straightened up and suddenly her arms became hot, scorched like fire. I winced, recoiling my hand away from her.Reddish saturated eyes looked back at me and her hair began fraying as if static was shifting from all sides. Her hands lifted and then her body did, all in the same br

    ***IvyI screamed out to her. She was so close to the truth but the witch was set to wake at any moment. Just after the sun set. We didn’t have much time and now that she found her mate, there was no telling what the witch would do.“Aries… please you must hear me!!!” I yelled. I felt something. A

    ***AriesI made my way back home. That exhilarating anxious feeling was back, sitting low in the pit of my stomach. Just the thought of seeing him again made my insides tumble. I walked through the marketplace hoping to catch him, but he was nowhere in sight. He is an Alpha, I reminded myself. He
