#Chapter 160 – The Hangover

Helen’s POVI jerked awake, drenched in sweat and heaving for breath. Not that I liked being tortured in the moment, but somehow waiting for pain to arrive was almost worse. I wish you’d just gone back to bloodying me up during my dreams, I thought.I had to find the Huntsman, and I had to stop him.I looked at the clock. It was only 5:00 a.m. I hadn’t been asleep for very long. I was going to have to find a way to get some sleep for real. Surely there had to be a way to keep him out of my head and out of my dreams.Wait. Maybe that idea held something.The Huntsman couldn’t get into my dreams if I didn’t dream. I would just have to find a way to induce dreamless sleep. And then, perhaps, I could get some rest in peace. The only thing I had in the house that I knew would work was alcohol.I went down to the kitchen, and I found a bottle of hard liquor. It was going to take something stronger than wine to knock m

#Chapter 161 – A Lady’s Companion

Helen’s POVRusso seemed to sense my thoughts. “I know you’re living alone for the first time in your life, and I thought that it might be lonely. As the luna, it’s perfectly acceptable for you to keep—”“No!” I said, startling myself with the firm denial in my tone. “I refuse to put anyone else in my service. I spent enough time waiting on other people. I’m not letting someone do that for me.”He reached out, putting a hand on my upper arm. “You misunderstand me,” he said. “Julianne is not here to work in your service. I didn't think you would like that. But a similar occupation is to function as a luna’s lady’s companion. She wouldn't be in charge of the chores. She would be here to make sure that someone is helping you as you start out on your own. You can use her as just a companion, if you want or she can take you through the day-to-day stuff that you might not u

#Chapter 162 – Getting Down to Business

Helen’s POVA larger smile took over my face. “Honestly, I could probably use some help. I was up until 2:00 in the morning last night trying to decide how I wanted to decorate my bed upstairs. It took me hours and I didn’t even come to a decision. And all I was trying to pick where sheets and a comforter. I can’t imagine how much trouble it would be to try and decorate the rest of my house or pick clothes for myself. I don’t think I’ve ever picked clothes for myself. I wouldn’t even know where to start.”A happy look shone from her face. “I would love to go shopping with you. I know all the best places and we can find you some really cute clothes. You have a beautiful figure.”“We can’t go too crazy,” I warned. “Our incomes come from the pack and our lands here around the village. I’m not going to drain those resources for my own vanity.”She nodded. “Th

#Chapter 163 – Answers From Holographic Lips

Helen’s POVIt didn’t take too long before we were ready to go and found ourselves in the library. This time the restricted section was not off limits to me and it felt odd to be able to walk in and simply go straight to the book that I wanted. I didn’t think about the fact that when I had originally looked at the book about the Huntsman that the little silver key that had gone with it. I dropped the key who knows where.My stomach sank. How was I supposed to research this man if I couldn’t get it back into the book? Hoping maybe Russo could pick the lock with some sort of fae magic, I went ahead and went straight for the book and pulled it out, setting it on a nearby table which was set up for reading.To my shock, the key was back in its place. That was creepy. Had somebody put it there or did the book draw it back with some sort of magic?I gave a shudder. Either way I didn’t like the idea.Russo and Julianne both h

#Chapter 164 – Plenty of Answers But Never the Right One

Helen’s POVI turned my back on the book and looked between Julianne and Russo. “All right, everyone think hard. We have to find a way to figure out what sort of being fathered the Huntsman.”Julianne pressed her lips together and thought. “We could go back in the historical records and see if anything unusual happened in 1893.”“Perhaps that might give us a clue or maybe we can dig through the historical records and trace his mother,” Russo suggested.“There's got to be clues somewhere,” I said. “Let's do both of what you suggested. I think one of the computers is hooked up to the human internet. Russo, are you any good with that sort of human technology? Can you look up the information on his history?”Russo nodded. “I got good blending in wherever I could find a home. Part of that included residing amongst humans for a while. I can handle their internet and their databases.&

#Chapter 165 – The Beauty of a Tiger Lily

Helen’s POVThe fae glanced around, but we were the only two in this section of the library. A quiet hum emminated from the sleeping machines and the last of the day’s sunlight cut long across the room illuminating floating dust. The place had an eery abandoned feel to it.After checking to see we were alone, Russo nodded his head at the computer. “I was going to find a more gentle way to break this news to you, my little wolf. But it seems like the Huntsman isn’t the only one who has an interesting lineage.”“What do you mean?” I asked. “Did you find out something about Justin?” I pulled my chair closer. “Tell me quick, so that we can try to figure out this puzzle.”He pointed to the screen. “The Huntsman isn’t the only other piece to this puzzle. You are a huge enigma as well. Didn’t your father finally admit before he died that he fathered you on another female, t

#Chapter 166 – Sexual Revelation

Helen’s POVRusso studied further down the page, eyes skimming over material about my heritage. “Listen to this,” he said. “This is interesting. It says here that members of your pack can gain strength and the purity that the rest of the werewolf community considers ideal by sexually joining with pure members of their pack. If the members of your ancestral pack continue to breed with one another, or breed with mates of solid coat colors or took multiple partners, then their offspring would continue to gain additional colors in their coats.”He huffed a sigh. “Weird. The pack you are descendent from places a higher value on more colors. It’s the complete opposite of the rest of werewolf kind.”He pointed to the screen, and I read the paragraph too. Sure enough, according to the research that this professor at the werewolf university had done, the pack I was descendent from placed a higher value on multicolored coats. Rather than having one single wolf-mate that they were drawn to, they

#Chapter 167 – A First Date

Helen’s POV“Out of curiosity, why not?” I asked.Russo sighed. “I don’t know how long your nature will allow you to go between drawing the essence from someone. I would hate for your dry spell to turn into an affair, which would ruin things between you and Justin.”A blush flamed across my face. “I don’t know that I’m ready to sleep with him.”He nodded. “I can understand that, but your magnetism and need are still there. And I think we can get both you and his lycan on board with this mutual sharing of power. His lycan draws strength from his true mate because lycans, from what I’ve heard, are all as seriously monogamous as Justin seems to be to you. Once they choose a mate, they don’t stray. And your need to draw essence from someone that has enough power to satisfy you.”“How were you thinking we should go about doing that?” I asked.“I

#Chapter 168 – Just a Normal Dinner

Helen’s POV“So, how did your first day of research go?” Justin asked me.I put my hand over my mouth to finish chewing and swallowed before answering. “We found a little bit more on the Huntsman. It will help us some. But the biggest dead end that we found is his lineage.”“What do you mean, his lineage?” Justin asked me, his brows coming together on a creased forehead.“She means that we discovered the Huntsman isn’t fully human,” Russo told him.“That’s right,” Julianne added. “But in all of the records that he made of himself, the only mentioned of his father was to call him a beast and say that he would never be mentioned because the Huntsman wouldn’t do anything to mark any sort of remembrance for the man.”“Sounds like you’ve been busy,” Justin said. “Did you find out anything else good?”“No,&rdqu

#Chapter 169 – Learning Some Sweet Romance

Helen’s POVAt first, it was awkward sitting on the floor on the cushion next to Justin. Behind us, Randy and Russo had taken opposite sides of the couch and munched on their popcorn. On the loveseat, Julianne had curled in against Peter’s shoulder, resting her head and leaning against him. But otherwise, they weren’t doing anything.All I could think while I was watching them was that if that were Justin and me, we would have our hands under each other’s clothes, rubbing various sensitive points, rather than sitting there watching the movie. I took a sideways glance at my mate. What was I supposed to do with him?The first movie started, and it was a comedy about an intern and their boss, and some mix-up with the intern’s identity, so that their first day on the job, the boss thought that they were the new social coordinator. And, of course, the boss needs a date for an event, and the poor intern has no idea how to get one and can&
