GabriellaGabriella wouldn’t take the chance of telling anyone that she was going after the Wolf King. She didn’t even leave a note for fear that Lucienne would come after her. She was going to kill the Wolf King on her own without anyone else having to sacrifice their lives. She ran through the forest to the point where every muscle in her body ached right through to the bone.She had used the spell she got from one of the witches in the city just a couple of days ago to hide her scent and she was making her way closer to the human settlement. Meeting up with her two scouts that were keeping an eye on the situation, she gasped as soon as she saw Zion’s wolf in the cage. That bastard had given her friend away as if she was just some kind of animal!The humans had patrols and guns and they sounded pretty trigger-happy from what Gabriella’s scouts told her. It was a more dangerous situation than she had ever anticipated! What was worse, was the fact that the bastard had already left the
GabriellaSaving Zion was exactly what Gabriella needed. It was the good news everyone needed. She knew the Wolf King would come for them now, but she had her friend back! Jake met them just as they reached the border of the homelands. He didn’t even greet anyone as he rushed to Zion and held onto her. They couldn’t stay there all day, and Gabriella was thankful when Lucienne reminded them where they were.They shifted back into their wolf forms, but Zion was too tired to shift and Jake bent down so she could ride on his back. Making their way through the border, they didn’t take long to reach the house and everyone rushed over to greet them. Melody had a lot to say to Gabriella, but Gabriella could see that she was biting her tongue. She knew she should have at least told her friends and Lucienne where she was going, but she didn’t want anybody else getting hurt.After Zion was taken care of, they all gathered around the kitchen table and Gabriella told them exactly what she saw. Luc
GabriellaGabriella’s eyes searched the charging wolves for one wolf in particular and as soon as she found him, she charged. There was a loud clash as wolves attacked wolves and all around them, magic flew through the air. In the distance, Gabriella could see a couple of people trying to fire their guns, but they weren’t working on this side of the border and she smiled as she zoned in on the king.He had forgotten that no matter how strong he thought he was, even he couldn’t change the fact that modern-day things didn’t work on this side of the border. The magic interfered with the technology and his weapons weren’t going to help him.Gabriella came to a halt just a couple of feet away from him and her jaw snapped as she snarled. He actually stank so badly of sulfur that it burned her eyes a little. As she shook her head to try and get rid of the stench, she realized that it wasn’t just him! All of his warriors smelled like that! Gabriella’s eyes grew wider as she realized that ever
MelodyMelody had this incredible urge to see the dead people and she couldn’t explain it to anybody. As soon as Matthew left to speak to Gabriella, she ported to the enormous hall where everyone was being kept until the funeral. It was an incredibly sad sight. So many people had been lost and as she walked through the rows her hands drifted above the bodies.Suddenly, she felt a spark in her left palm and she stopped to look. The person under the sheet wasn’t moving at all, but … She closed her eyes for a moment to focus on just that one body. It took a moment, but then she felt the spark again! Ripping the sheet away, she listened and she could hear a very faint heartbeat! Whoever this was, they weren’t dead yet!Melody called out for help and three guards rushed over. She told them that the wolf wasn’t dead and to call for one of the angels. Her eyes scanned all the other bodies while the angels took away the one that was still alive and Melody wondered how many more could still be
GabriellaThe war was over and the pack had settled into a normal rhythm again. It took a couple of months for things to be sorted out completely, but as Gabriella cut the ribbon to the new part of the pack house she felt proud of what her people had accomplished.All the new pack members were linked to the pack in a special ceremony the night before and today was moving day. The pack house was almost twice the size it was when she came back from her first visit. They had also done some upgrading in the older part of the house and she was happy with what her people had done to make life easier for everyone.Melody and Matthew returned from the homelands two weeks after everyone else and Melody was an enormous help during the construction of the pack house. She not only made sure that everyone was fed, but she also helped out when it seemed as if it was going to be impossible to get something done. Gabriella caught herself wishing she had magic like that a couple of times.The coronati
VenusLife as the assistant to the queen was a little more complicated than Venus had expected, but Venus quickly got all the necessary etiquette under the knee. Her problem wasn’t that she had to figure it all out. Her problem was that she had to now teach the damn wolves what it all meant to them! Venus was getting resistance from all corners and not just in their damn pack!Suddenly, alphas needed to see her about everything! It had become clear that Caesar didn’t keep up with his duties as he was supposed to. Being the ruler of the werewolves meant so much more than just chasing after wars! Venus had to bring all the paperwork for all the different packs back up to date since Caesar didn’t take care of any of that. New births had to be registered and deaths were just a damn mess! Venus sighed, thinking to herself that she would probably never be able to get it all back up to date as Hunter brought her some lunch.He had been an absolute godsend and she had no idea what the hell sh
GabriellaGabriella was surprised at the amount of work that went into sorting out who was born and who died. She was even more surprised to find out that they didn’t even have all the documentation. This was a mammoth job Venus was trying to get done, and Gabriella was going to make sure Venus had everything she needed to do.They all went to bed late and were up early again to work on all of it. She did promise Venus they would help, but they just started when Gabriella noticed that the boys were missing. She asked the girls if any of them had an idea where the guys were going, and when nobody did, Gabriella called Lucienne through the mate link.He promptly but politely informed her that he thought it best if the boys didn’t help the girls and they were outside training. When Gabriella told the girls, Venus quickly agreed and showed them the little pile of papers the guys had been working on the night before. They joked around saying they were sure the boys each sat with one certif
GabriellaNow that Gabriella had been crowned queen, it meant she was traveling a lot more than she originally thought she would. It felt strange walking into the council chambers this time and she instantly felt it. The weight of presenting her kind in the council was resting heavily on her shoulders. It didn’t feel like this before. Before, she was just there to fight for survival. Now she was going to be part of the group of people who made the decisions that guided their entire region of supernatural creatures.“Well, I would like to start by congratulating Queen Gabriella on her coronation.” The queen of the fairies was the first to speak. The appearance of the entire council had changed since they last met. The mistress of the forest had been replaced by a new representative as well since she had been imprisoned, but the king of the vampires still kept his seat. For some reason, they couldn’t find any proof that the man was involved in the Wolf King’s plans even if he fought sid
