here with my mouth wide open, awestruck by what Eve had done, my heart swelling with love for her. The room was pained in a light blue, white clouds also painted and a sun on one wall. The carpet was a dark shade of blue, white rugs lining where the two cribs were side by side.
toys, clothes and nappies were neatly put away into drawers and their was two changing stations ready for when the babies arrived. I couldn't believe that she had done all of this in the space of two days.
i walked towards a chest of drawers, running my hands over the stuffed animals and soft toys, my mind going to what my children would be like. How they would act and what personalities they would have, who would my children become?
What movies would they enjoy?
what would their favourite colours be?
I couldn't help but wonder if they would be similar or completely different, would they share a bond w
I heard shouts from outside, causing me to stand up and walk towards the window, my chest heaving heavily, I hadn't seen most of the pack, or the other betas yet, I wasn't even officially Luna, but that didn't mean I didn't care about the people. I wanted them all to be safe and happy, just as I wanted my mates to be happy.i opened the curtain and leaned against the windowsill, trying to get a better view of outside, my heart thudding in my chest at what I saw. Rogues we're making their way into the territory, hundreds of them and I could smell them from here; the rotten flesh and stink of blood.I had to do something! They were coming from the west side, and if they continued most people would be caught by surprise. We'd lose loads of the pack that way, especially with how many rogues were out there."Nyx what should we do? We aren't linked to the pack yet, we can't warn people." I asked in a panic, childre
The rogues I crushed died quickly and in agony, each one of them begging for mercy, a mercy that I wouldn't grant. They wouldn't have shown me or anyone else mercy if they were given the chance, so I would not show it to them. I felt a wave of dizziness wash over me, but I ignored it as more rogues rushed to my position, knowing that they would have to take me out first if they had any hope of taking over the pack and destroying the people in it. but I wouldn't allow that to happen, I know what I can do and I know that I can beat them, they don't stand a chance against the power that the moon goddess gave to me. the pack warriors and my mates had arrived to join the battle, each one of them fighting for their lives against the unusually strong wolves. They had help to be that strong, I knew that for certain, I could almost smell the magic that was seeping from them. Empowering their movements. "B
I storm up the stairs and into my bedroom, deciding to shower in order to get all the blood of me, but I couldn't help but growl under my voice, furious at what Dean had said to me. How could he be like that? I saved the lives of pack members and yet he tried to label me as weak. I step under the streaming water, trying to calm my racing heart as I looked down at the growing bump on my stomach, rubbing it softly. It wasn't like I was purposely trying to harm my babies, I didn't want anything happening to them, just like my mates didn't. but that didn't mean he could talk to me like that, I had done nothing but try and help, not anger anyone. "Nyx what are we going to do? I feel like everyone tries to control us." I complain, though most of my anger has gone now, replaced with sadness. Didnt Dean trust us? "I think he was just worried about the babies, we are chatting the ne
We walked to the kitchen together, our hands entwined, it was nice to show affection in this way, and it was also rare. So much has happened in the months that I left slavery, much more than I could have ever dreamed.I had so much to experience, so much to learn, but I was getting there and maybe one day, when our children our grown, the world would be different. I hoped that it would be safer for them, I didn't want them to suffer as I have, I wanted them to be happy from their younger years.but I guess that is what everyone wants for their children, a better life to grow and be happy. I just pray that that dream is a reality, I couldn't imagine them going through what I had, and if it was within my power, I'd never pet anyone hurt them.their lives will be different , they would be better, they would have everything they could ever dream of, maybe more. Yes, I realise the risk of them growing up spoilt, b
I stand there shocked, not knowing what to say, I knew that Balthazar would go to certain lengths to get me back, but this? I could never have expected him to go to every warlock he knows in order to trap me.what were we going to do? We wouldn't be able to fight that many of them, no matter how many we had in the pack. We would lose.I walked backwards until I hit a chair and flopped into it, utterly defeated and terrified, I didn't know how we were going to get through this. How could we survive an attack of this magnitude?"I'm going to end up a slave." I whisper, throwing my head into my hands."I'd die before I let you go back to that Annalise." Zane murmurs, kneeling down in front of me as gently kissing my head. "We will fight them.""we can't win." I whisper, tears forming in my eyes. "What will happen to our children?"matthew came to kneel next to Z
Drax and I started sending emails and messages hours ago, the hunched over position I had taken in front of the computer now taking its toll on my back. I absently rubbed my stomach as I looked over the email I had just written to the river tribe further north."Dear Alpha Adrian,I hope this email arrives at a good time, my name is Annalise and I am the Red wolf, graced into existence by the Red Moon Goddess. As you are more than likely aware, the warlock Balthazar is promising to share me as though I am some sort of prize. This can not be allowed to happen.I offer you my powers to help protect both yourself and your pack if you would be willing to aid us in the upcoming battle against Balthazar and those that follow him.He sees our kind as nothing but slaves to be used and disguarded when we are no longer needed, and it is my understanding that other warlocks are the same in this view. We cannot as a species allow this to
I entered the kitchen with Drax close behind me, surprised to see that my mates were still up and waiting for me, concern littering their features. I walked up to Zane who was closest to us, and hugged him tightly, pouring all of my affection through the bond we shared."I've sent as many emails as I could, it's just a waiting game now." I announced, burrying my head in Zanes chest."Hopefully we'll hear some good news soon." Zane soothes, rubbing my sore back.Dean steps forward and kisses my head, "surely some of the packs will come to help, we've helped them plenty in the past.""Perhaps, it depends what Balthazar has promised them. I just hope that what we are offering is better, or they have faith in their own race." Alexander adds, ushering me towards the table as he grabs me a plate of food. "here you need to eat.""Thank you." I say, turning towards the door where Drax still st
I finished my food and headed to bed for an early night, disappointed that I didn't get to see Dean after the argument. I wondered if he had calmed down, or if he was still mad at me. But I didn't understand his anger, all I wanted to do was protect our children, and the pack! Why wouldn't he see that? What could I do to change his mind."an old dog can't learn new tricks." Nyx tells me, her voice cold.I close the bedroom door behind me as I sigh, "I just wish their was something we could do to change his mind, show him we know what we are doing.Nyx growls, furious that he talked to us the way that he did. "he's already made up his mind, he doesn't think we are strong enough, he doubts us, even after everything.""Maybe he's just scared and won't admit it, maybe he does believe in us." I suggest, hope blooming in my heart.I walk towards the bathroom as Nyx goes sil
