SKYLA.“Do my tits look good in this?” I ask, cupping my boobies as I look over at Kataleya and Azura.The blood moon is finally here and we’re getting ready for tonight.It’s going to be one long night. Starting with Dad’s live conference, meeting Royce’s Mama officially, then Kenneth and Aleric’s truth will be brought before the council.I’m nervous about some of it, but there’s little I can do but hope that things go smoothly. Although Leo said there’s a sixty percent chance that Aleric will pull something that we won’t be ready for.There are measures in place… but if there’s a god at play, we don’t know what we might face…“Your boobies look perfect,” Azura confirms as she cups her own.Kat’s skipping since we all obviously know that the only man that she wants is Little Boy Hook and you know what? I’m totally for it. I took a chosen mate, why can’t she?Plus, she’s been in love with him since she was little. That’s some dedicated shit right there.She’s currently doing Azura’s ha
ROYCE. What is too inappropriate and when does it cross a line? Because right now there’s so much I want to do to my doll and I really don’t care who is around. She looks ravishing, in a sexy gold dress, if you can call it that. Her long killer legs are glistening, and what I want is to have them wrapped around me… Her cleavage draws my attention and I suddenly feel a tad too fucking thirsty. And despite wanting to do a thousand fucking things to her, I’m unable to move as I watch her shake her hair back, running her fingers through her lush locks as her eyes glint seductively as they meet mine,setting off an intense wave of pleasure through me. ‘Come here.” I find myself commanding and her eyes glimmer purple. Her heart pounds and her hips sway sensually as she saunters over to me. When she’s two steps away, I close the gap between us, grabbing her around the waist and pull her against me. At the same time, I create a thick fog to envelop us as my other hand twists into her lo
ROYCE. We head out, and me and Leo are in the front since it’s a tad tight in the back, although I think I could have cramped in if it meant being near my woman. The venue is about a ten-minute drive from the Rossi Mansion, still on the premises of the Night Walkers pack lands. It gives me the time to think over what is to come. Tonight, I will tell Mom, Dad’s truth… Will I break her? Will she walk on in life with the same haunting look that Maria Rossi holds? That is a look that I will never forget, no matter how well she tries to hide it… Am I doing the right thing? Or should I have given her more time to prepare? I no longer know… Skyla’s hand slips around the side of the seat, and I take it, trying to rein in my emotions so she doesn’t feel them. She doesn’t need the extra burden, she has enough going on. “What’s on your mind?” Leo asks quietly, his eyes on the road. I glance across at him. He’s in full black and the silence of the car is loud. “Mom… I don’t know how she
SKYLA.I don’t know what it is… but the moment when he looks over his shoulder, something inside of me makes my heart clench.The distance between us suddenly feels terrifyingly huge and for the first time I ask myself, what are we without the one we love?“Sky…” Azura tugs me inside and the door slam shuts behind me, making my head jerk up.My breath hitches, and I stop in my tracks. I suddenly feel… I don’t know, I’m unable to explain it.I glance back at the door.“Hey… what’s wrong?” Azura asks softly, as both look at me intently.I shake my head. I don’t know… I don’t know what’s wrong with me… I just…“He’ll be fine. He’s one of the strongest people I have come across.” Leo says quietly.“Yeah… I know… I just… it’s fine.”It isn’t. I just feel… fuck, it’s weird. I can’t even explain it.Is it because I know he’s finding this hard?Is it because I know he’ll feel guilty for tearing down the veil from his mother’s eyes?I swear, I’m going to make sure we are all there for her, too.
SKYLA. The entire hall falls silent, the buzz of chattering fades away, the tinkling of glasses being placed down soon stops too and the soft laughter fades into nothing…. The rustling of fabric stops, as everyone pays attention to the king. “Some of you may have heard rumours, but for the majority, this will come as a shock. Our world has been at peace for years now. Bridges have been built and we have progressed in many ways. Something that was only possible because of the efforts of many.” Dad begins. “However, in recent years, there have been some odd occurrences… things that are unexplainable or unheard of before - having begun appearing. Not to mention visions and prophecies that point to something far bigger to come.” Dad glances around, giving them a moment to let the words sink in before continuing. “There’s so much that is still a mystery, and it is partially the reason we abstained from sharing this with the public. There are things that shouldn’t even be on this plane
SKYLA. “Sky,” Mama says quietly as the cunt glares at me. I see several people nod in agreement to what I just said, and I cock a brow at the cunt. Yeah, you don’t have a fucking answer. “She isn’t wrong. There are many of us who are living a far better life than what we would be if he did not intervene. There was a time that every pack went by their own rules, allowing abuse, violence and other misdeeds to be overlooked. Alejandro Rossi united the packs of this country and promised safety to those who needed it. Giving them consolation that there’s someone who they can reach out to,” Leo says sharply. His voice is ice cold, his piercing eyes trained on the man. The man scoffs. “Of course, you say that now when you are mated to a Westwood. You hated the king and the rest of the kingdom too, did you not Alpha Leo Herrmann Rossi!” Leo smirks. “Past tense. I hated what happened, and it is in the past. Those involved understood and regretted their actions and yes, I admit that I chan
ROYCE. My heart is racing as I hear their footsteps approach. I’d recognise Mom’s heartbeat anywhere… and right now it’s racing as she steps inside the office that I’m waiting in. She doesn’t know that today I haven’t just brought myself to her, but someone else too. “Royce,” her voice is thick as she fights her emotions. I turn and give her a smile. She looks beautiful in a white dress that lights up her eyes. The first woman in my life, the first goddess who I’ll always respect, the woman who went through so much pain to bring me onto this planet. My mother. She stops in the doorway, her eyes glimmering with tears that she’s so desperately trying to contain, and I close the gap between us, pulling her into my arms. “Royce,” she whispers as she clutches onto me tightly. “Thank the gods.” She cups my face, tugging me down and kisses my forehead and cheeks as a few tears trickle down her cheeks. She’s examining my face as if making sure I’m not hurt… just like she used to do l
WINONA. These moments… I will never be able to put them into words. The love that I feel for someone I have just met… is unexplainable. I feel as if the heavens and the gods themselves have blessed me with everything. Leo, Corrado, Marcel, Royce, Charlotte and now my mother. I once thought I had no family, and then Leo stepped into my life, offering me safety and a home. Corrado, a child whose smile became my entire world… Marcel, a man I never knew I could love and have, and so much more than that. I was given him as my mate. Royce, my brother is brave enough to push to be a part of my life. Even before I knew who he was, the way he looked at me shows me that he loves me and will always protect me. Charlotte, my feisty little sister who is a queen with the confidence to make up for my lack thereof. And my Mom, someone who has yearned for me, after being lied to and betrayed by her own mate, has suffered for years. Her happiness is so strong I can feel it. And now I know that
