MasukMaeve I could tell by the familiar feeling that I was lying on my own bed, and though I was relieved to be back in the present, the sharp throbbing pain in my head made the whispers that I heard sound ten times louder than they were. "What in Goddess' name did the four of you think you were doing exactly, anyway?!?" Uncle Seth asked in an angry, whispered tone. My head throbbed with every word I heard. Jackie immediately snapped back. "We were trying to figure out what the hell is going on with your mate, that's what!" "You'd be wise to watch your attitude with me right now," Uncle Seth warned. Jackie quickly returned the warning tenfold. "And you'd be wise to watch yours! Keep in mind that despite being a member of this pack, I am so only out of my own free will. I might like you, I might respect you, but I won't tolerate being blamed for something I didn't do! I have no problem leaving and bringing half this pack with me!" Uncle Seth let out a growl that was just a ha
Rieka I found myself in a dark, quiet void. The only sound I heard was Maeve breathing, and if it weren't for that, I would have sworn that I was alone. Even my wolf was quiet. Muffled voices could be heard in the distance, starting as a faint whisper, slowly growing louder. "Aunt Rhi?" Maeve whispered as if she were searching for me. "Shhh," I instructed as I reached out and took hold of her hand. "John, are you sure that this is really what you want? What if Jennifer changes her mind?" a strange woman's voice asked. "Mom, stop. Jennifer is long gone and means absolutely nothing to me. She rejected me and made it known she would never have the Alpha of Gypsy Moon as her mate. I don't care if she comes crawling back on her hands and knees, if she can't accept this pack, her rejection was nothing short of a blessing," a familiar man's voice said. I smiled as soon as I heard my dad's voice, and a light began forming in the distance. I started walking towards the growin
Freya Amar was lying next to me on the couch as a group of us hung out in the living room after breakfast, discussing what had happened this morning. I was thankful that Amar chose to be next to me, as petting him helped take away some of the stress I was feeling after what I had done. "How the hell did you one-up Aunt Rhi?!" Layla asked as she looked at me, her reddish-orange eyes full of curiosity. Layla had Uncle Jay's copper tanned skin tone, and Aunt Mia's curly dark brown hair and facial features. She also had Aunt Mia's bubbly personality. I shrugged my shoulders and explained it for the hundredth time. "Like I said. I honestly don't know what happened. We were training together as we had before, and the next thing I knew, Lupa and Keira collided. It felt like the world stopped for that moment." "More like Lupa stopped," Kaden said casually. I turned to look at Kaden, who was sitting in one of the reclining chairs. He was the son of Barrett and Nadia Utter, one of
Maeve I was on my way to hang out with the others in the living room when my mom asked me to go to the meeting room. At first, I thought I would be blamed for what happened on the training field this morning, but then I was sworn to secrecy and I knew something else was going on. "The dreams started quite a few years ago, right?" Jackie asked Rhi. Dreams? This is about dreams? "Yeah, about those," Aunt Rhi hesitated as she played with her fingers. "Can I be completely honest with you guys?" My mom furrowed her brows and looked genuinely hurt. "Why wouldn't you be?" "This is embarrassing and I don't want anyone to take offense .... but ..... the dreams started shortly after you all gave birth. It's not like Seth and I haven't tried to get pregnant ..... and then I think about my own childhood. I guess I just felt jealous, hurt, left out ..... confused and emotional all the way around. As time went on, the dreams happened more often." Aunt Rhi looked down at the table, clearl
Rieka Jackie, Sylvia, and I were all sitting in the soundproof office with the door locked so that no one would bother us. I felt bad keeping things from the others, but how could I explain to them what was going on if I didn't fully understand it myself? "You've actually brought water into your bedroom while sleeping to put out the fire in your dreams?" Sylvia's brows were furrowed in thought as she tapped her fingers on the desk. I nodded my head. "That's a pretty impressive elemental power, if you're doing things when you're dreaming," Jackie said as she looked at me. Sylvia shook her head. "No, I think it's more than just her elemental powers." "Because it's her subconscious that's controlling it? And what about today? What exactly was that about?" Jackie asked with a raised brow. "Well, now, that's different." I hesitated, not wanting to say what I heard, but knowing I had to. "That started because I heard a voice say my old name." "Rhiannon?" Sylvia asked. I
Rieka"You're supposed to be Goldilocks, not Sleeping Beauty," Sam's voice said from somewhere in the distance. The bright sunlight almost blinded me as I slowly forced my eyes open. "What the fuck happened, Rhi?" Jackie's voice asked over link. But I didn't have a chance to answer her."You guys had Izzy evanesce me here, you better get out of my way!" Trisha yelled out before quickly making her way towards me. "What happened?" she asked as she checked my vitals. I hesitated briefly. "Lupa must have been distracted by something and Kiera just happened to make her move at the right time." "You have GOT to be kidding me right now?! You're throwing me under a bus that I wasn't even driving?!" Lupa snipped before going to the back of my mind. "Well, everything looks good, but I want you to take it easy while your wolf heals you. Concussions aren't anything to mess around with. Come by tomorrow for a recheck," Trish instructed as she helped me to my feet. "If you had a concussi
Rhiannon I woke up to the sound of the alarm on my cell phone, each buzz feeling like a blow to my head. I silently cursed at myself for not turning it off the night before as I reached over, blindly searching for it. "Ugh," I groaned as I rubbed my forehead after turning off the horrible sound, h
Julia I was pulling up weeds from one of my gardens, imagining that each one was the body of one of my enemies, when my moment of peaceful retribution was shattered by Seth's panicking voice. "Julia! You need to get here, NOW! It's Rhiannon!" I stood up and threw my trowel into the dirt, pissed
Rhiannon Crickets chirped in the darkness, their songs blending with the sound of the water in the distance. I knew exactly where I was without even opening my eyes. "What time is it?" I quietly asked Seth, surprised that we were still in the field. But I didn't get an answer. The silence was uns
Dis The shades that the burning glow of the lower mantel created were breathtakingly beautiful, like autumn on fire. The view was my reward for keeping watch over the hundreds of thousands of evil souls that aimlessly walked around, each one awaiting their turn to move closer to the Earth's core.
