MOON GODDESS'S POV.
I watch with a happy heart as my beautiful great-granddaughter soothes her mates and their broken hearts.
When they lost their family, they truly lost their way. It was awful seeing them lose someone year after year. These twin humans were so much better than my human mates.
They loved wholeheartedly and were loyal beyond belief. If only I had seen the malicious intent behind the angelic faces of my mates. I could have saved myself so much pain. I sigh
Even with the matebond, I watch so many werewolves go through heartbreak. The wolf spirits love their mates completely and totally, but the human side, I sigh. Rejection, lies, power-hungry plots, manipulations, rape.... the list is endless. It is rare to find a pure human soul, but the twins are damn close, as was their mother. I owe them for all the pain they have experienced and will experience. I shudder at what is to come.
I move towards my cabin. Part of my pla
AMELIA POVI stretch as best as I can as my eyes slowly open. My body is covered with warmth and blissfultingles. I glance at both my sides and sigh. The Kings are still sleeping. Lost in peaceful slumber, their faces still hold so much sadness. Jason's dismay so far has been easy to see, but Jackson'shas been hidden.But now, both men have deep frowns marring their perfect features. I trace my fingers across their foreheads, and the big males sigh. A smile widens across my face as I watch the effects my touches have on them.A faint breeze from the AC has me glancing down at my exposed chest. The events from yesterday flash in my mind, and a blush begins to heat my skin.After spending only one day with them, they had seen more of my body than anyone else. I shuffle down the bed slowly. I need to find a shirt and clear my head.My feet touch the soft carpet in silence. I open the door to the room-like closet. Half the closet has women's clo
AMELIA POVThe training field is impressive. It has wrestling mats, a track, multiple racks of training weapons, and plenty of wolf form sparing room. There is even an obstacle course that screams difficulty. No wonder the Royals are doing so well in the war. Their training equipment is to die for.One of my mates sent a pack link calling for the females about 15 mins ago, and I am super nervous about meeting the she-wolves of Riverstone. Will they be pleased with me as their Luna/queen? How are my fighting skills going to match up against professionally trained wolves? If I didn't have the twins on either side of me, I would have already bolted.Females are trickling into the field consistently and, while my nerves are at an all-time high, it's nice to see this many she-wolves in one place. I wouldn't say the female numbers match the males, but I'm betting it's close. Maybe a 65% to 35% ratio which is fantastic in this time.Burly number one, who I learned o
PG13AMELIA POVWe both strike up defensive poses and begin to move slowly, circling, closing in tighter and tighter. She makes the first move with a weak punch that I dodge. I send my right fist out in a hard jab catching her directly in the eye. Her head snaps back, and before she can recover, I am on top of her. I spin her body, moving it and mine into a rear-naked choke. She immediately taps, and I release her.The crowd is silent as we help each other to our feet. I glance over at my mates, and my heart soars from the look of pride I'm getting from them."Next," Gordon yells, and two girls attempt to enter the mat."Im going until I lose, Gordon," I say in a stern voice."Then you fight both," Gordon says back with a snap.Jason immediately moves to get in his face, but Jackson grabs him."Get em baby," Jackson says with a knowing look.I turn towards the two females. Eve bounces up, ready to help me move faster and more ins
AMELIA POVEvery single insecurity I had at the beginning of the day is back, plus some. I can't believe I unleashed some kind of Goddess-relatedfighting abilities onto two omegas.Jackson's pretty apology can't erase the fact that he was somewhat correct. I heard them as we had left the field; they were scared of me. No matter if Jason explained or not, they would fear my power. They wouldn't come to me for comfort like most Lunas. They would come to me for protection. Which is okay, don't get me wrong, but I was supposed to be the mother figure towards the pack. Not a third father and protector. They already have an extra King for that. Jackson might have spoken from an angry and frustrated place, but he was still correct.I need to address the pack. I need to explain myself before I receive a reputation of being a bully. Although they know of my heritage and are excited, they are going to wonder why I would use that level of power on two small omegas. I ne
AMELIA POVMy heart is in shreds as Eve howls in pain. We rip through the air, trying to escape the house that we thought reminded us of home. Now it is the home of nightmares. Was she ever in that bed with him.Did they play house somewhere away from Jason?We shift faster than we ever have. Our fur is bright instead of dark black like we are used to, but we don't care right now. Pack members gasp when they see us darting past, but we don't slow down.So many doubts bombard my brain as we move our legs faster than we ever have. I can't even make out the pack member's faces before we hit the woods.26 years. He was with someone else for 26 years. One night stands hurt. Them breeding with others, having pups with others, hurt so bad I thought that was the worst feeling imaginable, but this: a long term, chosen mate.Math crams in my brain as I try to work everything out. He said he was 47 when they met. Meaning he was 73 when she died. He is 115 now
AMELIA POVI grumble out in pain as I rub my head. I have a huge knot on the back of my head thathas crusty dried blood all around it. What the hell hit me?Eve and I were running...Amelia-..Eve? Eve, you thereSilence. My heart rate elevates. If I can't contact Eve, then I am in trouble. I look around and see a typical prison cell. It's mostly clean and even has a toilet. I raise my eyebrows, nice. I check the rest of my body for injuries but find none good. Escaping is easier when you don't have a limp. And someone was nice enough to lend my human body some clothes: a ratty shirt and too big basketball shorts. But at least I am not naked. And I have no arousal smells on me. So they dressed my form honorably.They must have disconnected me from Eve, but no worries, been there, done this. Being a rogue for five years definitely taught me some things. I stand up and head to the toilet. I do my business quickly, not liking the open bars. There isn'
JASON POVI can't do this. I can't go back to a life without Amelia. My whole body craves her presence. Even if she only wants to be our friend, now that Jacks has ruined everything, I will take it.Last night I stayed outside. I can't be near him. I can'tbelieve hispast might have cost us our mate. I knew it was going to be bad, and We both agreed that she would have to know eventually, but he should have waited. If we were mated and marked, she wouldn't have left.I enter our packhouse looking like a homeless person, but I don't care. I just want to hideaway. The office is thankfully deserted. I've spent all morning grieving, but now I need to find her. I need to plead and beg.I sit down behind my side of our L-shaped desk and pick up my phone."Alpha Raymond speaking,""Hello, Alpha Raymond, this is King Jason. Last night, did you by chance have a female rogue enter your lands,"No, My King. But I will have my patrol double-c
ETHAN'S POVI watchJackson make a beeline towards Scott's old house. I feel bad for him. He only ever wanted happiness. I'm glad I had kept my old hands clean in terms of females. I wouldn't know how to tell my Ava that I had had relationships before her. I turn back towards the scum in front of me and sneer.I've always hated this male. I've seen how some females flinch when he comes around. He is trouble. He doesn't deserve the Matthews name. Scott and Lisa would have already ripped his hide off if they heard how he speaks to and about females.I square my shoulders as I begin to address the members. I can feel Ava's presence, and it's so calming. I love the feeling of being mated. My wrist has an intricate band around it, showing that I am indeed mated to a vampire. And I couldn't be prouder. Her neck bares my deep canine scars, and every time I see it, I get physically excited."Today, our Delta verbally insulted his Queen. As previously stated by b
