I didn’t have to turn around to see if Jet was following me. I could feel him. He was still mulling over his words, so I just kept ongoing. The kitchen was empty of people, but it was pretty late, so I wasn’t surprised. Opening the fridge, I found some leftover pasta. Putting that on a plate, I heated myself up some. Next, I went to the cabinet and grabbed a wine glass before pouring myself some. The dinger went off in the microwave, so I was able to get my food and sit down at the table off to the side to eat. Jet just stood at the door and watched me. It wasn’t until I sat down that he heated himself up some food and sat down. It chose left over pizza. I tried to ignore him as he just stared at me. Every bite he took, I doubt he even looked at. Suppose he will tell me whatever is bothering him when he is ready. I finished first and waited till he was done as I sipped my wine. Only once he was finished did I take our plates to the dishwasher and put them in. I kept my wine though

“Ivory, you sure you are okay to go?” Jet was finishing getting dressed. It’s been almost two weeks since I gave some venom. We decided to wait until the doctor had a possible cure before we trapped any vamolves. No reason to have them tied down if we had no use for them. It also gave me the time to recover completely. With my luna ceremony tomorrow, today was our last day to find any vamolves before we left on our trip. For the last eleven days, I have barely moved from the couch in the library. To say that I was going stir crazy was an understatement. “I am beyond ready!” My arms went out to the side as I jumped up. I had on a traditional battle clothes. This time, I had on a black long sleeve body suit with khaki pants. They were tied into my combat boots. My hair was pulling into a low bun, so I didn’t have to worry about anything catching. “How is your energy level?” Jet also stood up and adjusted his pants. He was wearing something similar, but not a body suit. “Extremely h

“Ivory, wake up!” I must be dreaming. My mother’s voice whispered in my ears. Squeezing my eyes tightly shut, I didn’t want to wake up. Just imagining her warm embrace was so comforting right now. I slept like shit. Tossing and turning because Justina kicks. More than once, I wanted to wrap her in vines to keep her on her side. Jet was a great bed companion. He didn’t kick, snore… loudly or even steal the covers. “Wakey wakey!” There it was again. My mother’s voice. My body shook, which caused me to actually wake up. My anger rose a little at the thought of not hearing my mom’s voice this morning. I think Susan invited her, but since I hadn’t had the chance to call her, I wasn’t sure she would be here. “Ivory Peterson! You get out of this bed right now!” The light blinded me as I realized I wasn’t dreaming. That was my mom! “MOM?” Sitting up in bed, I had to blink to get used to the light. “About time sleepy head!” I felt the bed dig as a comforting pair of arms wrapped arou

“I doubt it but I will have some warriors check it out. You don’t worry about a thing.” Jet said in the mind-link as he fed me my cake. The worry was still there, but I let it go. If he wanted to do anything… well, I’ll address it then. The omegas took over cutting the cake and passing it out. I walked over to where Justina and Samantha were sitting. “Hey girls!” “Hey there!” Justina smiled at me. “Ivory, why did you choose the name goddess? I didn’t even know you could choose a name besides Luna!” Samantha laughed. Justina looked at me, confused. “I forgot she doesn’t know.” “Know what?” Samantha stopped, smiled, and looked at me, confused. “I am an actual goddess. My parents adopted me, but my birth parents are Mother Nature and the Moon Goddess.” I said proudly. “It took me a while to accept, but that is the truth. It’s all a long story that I can fill you in on later.” “I think… Are you…what?” Samantha started a few different sentences before she just gave up. “I’m not

Ivory POV I felt so perfectly. Jet was beside me. I was completely satisfied in everyway possible last night. His arms were around me, protectively, but I really had to pee. Being careful, I tried moving his arms, but he just flexed and then they didn’t go anywhere. “I will pee on your if you do not let me up!” I warned. He growled, but allowed me to get up. I had to run butt ass naked to the bathroom and barely made it on time. I caught a glimpse of myself and damn, I looked rough. Taking a few minutes and freeing my hair felt amazing. Might as well take a shower. We leave today to find the vampires. Not sure how it will go, but the only thing I do know is that I need a shower. “Showering without me?” Jet’s voice filled the room as he walked in. “I didn’t know if you were still sleeping.” I said truthfully. “Nope. I’ve been awake, but I can hold my bladder better, apparently.” I heard his pee hit the toilet. We haven’t peed in front of each other yet, so this was new for me. “
