Ashley looked about the cabin she shared with Sal. All her things were in boxes, along with Sal’s luggage. This was truly happening. She was getting her wish to be Luna. It just wasn’t the Luna of the Silver Ridge Pack. They’d not even spoken of a pack name yet. But here they were barely mated and starting a pack with a group of strangers.              “I think we’re about ready for tomorrow. Are you ready to spread the word?”              “Yeah, let’s spread the word of our woes. How horrible it is we can’t fix our computers. We need help from your Alpha to send a report. I wonder if this will work honestly.”              “Not if you say it lik

              Davie stepped back into the cabin he shared with Rachel and smiled at her in triumph.              “How’d it go?”              “Perfectly. Now we sit and wait. I don’t think he’ll wait long. It’s a perfect time to enter and do what he needs to do.”              “He may be smart, but he’s not a natural planner. I can’t believe what he missed.”              “Oh? What do you mean?”              “I’ve continued to watch this. I can’t believe he thought we wouldn’t tape his c

             Jessie couldn’t help but feel nervous. Her mother raised her to avoid anything magical. No dream realm and definitely no magic. Avoid all other supernatural species as you can. It was all dangerous and left you open for discovery by their stupidity. That was what Jessie learnt. Now she must unlearn it all. Silver Ridge worked with NARC and other factions. The construction crew was a mixture of Bear Shifters and Druids. She’d seen nothing like this. The Druids manipulated the land in wild ways. They thawed the land and moved vegetation at will. The strength of the Bear Shifters made fast work of moving things into place. But who would have thought a Druid could control the very water in the concrete? Oh, it wasn’t instant. But what they did definitely changed the world slowly around them. Things they would need to wait for spring now would take weeks to accomplish.   &nbs

           An hour later, a knock at the door of Alrick and Jessie’s room notified that someone was there. When Alrick opened it, he found Craig and Lily on the other side. “Glad you could make it. We have a little more time before they will want to meet us. Come in, and get comfortable. I’m sorry I didn’t tell you earlier that you needed to be here, but I’m afraid it slipped my mind.” Alrick directed them to where Jessie was sitting.           “Hey, Jessie. Feeling better? I’m sorry I just noticed you were a little green around the gills. It happens more often than you’d believe.” Lily noticed her queasy expression before on the way to settle into their rooms.           “I’m fine now thanks for asking. Don’t worry about it. I’m a master

             The debate dragged for on hours as each faction insisted on rehashing the same things with their opinions and ideas added in. By the time they’d finished, Jessie felt like she was a foolish little hick that found herself taken advantage of by gods knows what creature. It scared her silly and reenforced her mother’s words to stay away from the Dream Realm.             “Let’s step away from this debate and have some dinner. We can return when the Druid Representatives arrive. We’ll contact everyone with a time as soon as we can confirm one.” Edith finally stood up and announced. Her face stony from listening to the circles these men were doing. She’d no longer could take it. The reason for calling this meeting was to question the people professing to have experienced this and questions directed at them we
