INICIAR SESIÓNI flipped through an online menu from a local steakhouse. These apps had tons of restaurants that you could order from, and get the food delivered right to your door.
Yesterday, I tried Thai food for the first time.
Too many vegetables and not enough meat for my liking. The taste was nice though.
I did develop a dangerous fondness for these things called doughnuts.<
So, I’m a Luna-kissed too? I thought. It felt odd. I didn’t feel any different. But somehow it was different.Up until now, Luna-kissed was something about Soree, now Bear’s telling me it’s something about me too.“Were the males hunted too?” I heard Soree ask. That caught my attention.Zee was already at attention, taking it all in.“Oh, yes,” Maw said. “They tried to force breeding with high-ranking females, hoping to get Alphas or Lunas.”“What do you mean Lunas?” Soree asked again.“Not all Lunas possess magickal abilities. Just because a female is mated to the Alpha and a pack calls her Luna, doesn’t mean she is one.”Soree shook her head. “This is getting so confusing. I thought Luna-kissed just had more magick than Lunas, but all Lunas are Lunas.”“Let me try,” Bear said. “It’s very confusing.”Soree and I both nodded.“Before you met and bonded with Soree, Halia was your highest-ranking f
“I’m not sure I even know what to ask,” I stammered out. “Elara’s books don’t have much. I don’t know what Gabriel’s library has yet, and Amyra’s memory per her own admission is foggy.”“Whatever was written, more than likely, came after we went into hiding,” Maw said, sadly. “Who is this, Amyra?”I looked at Gabriel.He finished chewing, and took a sip of water. “She’s our most elder council member on the Isles. We call her Grandmother. When the Continental and Island Councils gathered here, Amyra revealed her Luna-kissed heritage, and also claimed Soree as her daughter.”Maw gasped.Bear grasped her fingers.“You’re reincarnated,” she said with awe.“Apparently. I knew nothing about any of this until a couple of weeks ago, wh
Soree and I made our way down the back staircase. Both Zee and I were content now that our mate rejoined the day-to-day.At times I could see her wanting to drift back upstairs, especially if the topic of the pyres came up, but she put on a brave face and kept plodding forward.KB smiled warmly as we entered her domain. She had two steaming mugs of coffee in her hands, and held them out toward each of us.“Thank you,” Soree said enthusiastically. I smiled as she brought the cup to her nose and inhaled deeply. “You put a touch of cinnamon in it!”KB beamed. “Yes, Luna. I know you like it that way.”“You are amazing,” she crooned, and took a tentative sip to gauge the heat factor.The kitchen was empty except for KB.

The taste was nice though.I did develop a dangerous fondness for these things called doughnuts.Humans had a lot of nice conveniences. Not everyone had their own personal kitchen staff.I picked up the remote and changed the channel on the television to a streaming app.I could understand why humans had an obsession with it. So many channels and just about every kind of show, news, movie, or sports visible at any given time.I found a couple of shows I liked, then
I knew the men had more pack business to discuss, and I simply didn’t want to listen to any more of it.“Would you ladies like to go upstairs and see the new nursery?” I said as I pushed back my chair.Elara clapped. “Most definitely, yes!”Halia and Maw both gave me a look that said “thank you for giving us a reason to not listen to the men”.I expected Maw to move at a much slower pace than she did given her age. Amyra relied on her cane, but that, I think… was from the injury she sustained all those centuries ago when I was taken from her.Neither one of us talked about it much. She was still guilt-ridden after all my rebirths. I don’t remember any of them, for all I know there was that one and this one.Maybe I h
Gabriel’s eyes nearly rolled into the back of his head when I asked what I missed.Maybe going back upstairs to my rocking chair would be a good thing.As if she read my mind, Halia arched a single eyebrow at me.I smiled sheepishly.“Fill me in, Boy,” the huge wolf they called Bear grumbled. “Don’t leave out any details.”Gabriel sighed. “A few days ago, right before the full moon, two individuals walked up to our gate and asked for asylum.”“Since when has that ever happened?” Nakoa remarked.“Not since the last hundred or so years, I reckon,” Bear said. “Back in the day when Alpha’s were tyrants.”Maw snorted but didn’t say anything.“Gabriel and I talked to them. I could sense magick and even the maker of the spell.” I said before I realized what I inadvertently admitted.My eyes went wide.I look
Sam wasn’t kidding when he said the Pack House was enormous. It looked like a palace with all the windows and number of floors.There were a bunch of houses scattered nearby, painted in colors resembling a color wheel.All the houses at Silverpine were either log built, or pai
I saw Sam’s tire tracks continue on the dirt road, but I veered off to the right, heading for the city.With the four-wheel-drive engaged, I practically flew over the ruts and sailed through the curves until I hit the pavement.The roads were clear, the sun shined down, and the city
We left the cabin in silence. I’m not sure either one of us knew what to say.I could see Gabriel through the side mirror. His thumbs hooked in his front pockets.His eyes glowed gold.Nothing will come to you from now until you breathe your last breath.Y
I was midway through a sentence with Selwyn on the telephone when Auron started jumping against me.A chill walked up and down my spine. Not walked, more like stomped.Multiple times.Each pass felt like I’d stuck a screwdriver in an electric outlet a little bit deeper.
