Isabella P.O.V. Back at the pack, Jenna meets us at the front door, her eyes wide and when she sees Alex she asks a million questions at the same time. I laugh, kissing Elijah’s cheek and grabbing Jenna’s arm. “How about we Lunas talk, one on one, and let the guys do whatever they do when we are not there to keep them in line.” I wink at my glaring mate and brother, draggin the stunned she-wolf upstairs to my room. I offer her something to drink, before guiding her to the couch. “Okay, questions - shoot.” I say, turning to face her. Jenna shakes her head, her mind seemingly far away. “I don’t know where to start, Luna.” I hold up a hand. “Firstly, we are equals now Jenna, so it’s just Isabella. I would like for us to be friends, as you are my twin’s mate and I really like you.” She smiles. “I would like that as well. It would be nice to have a friend who knows what I’m going through here.” I laugh. “But how did I become Luna? One minute I was speaking to the kitchen staff about

Alex P.O.V. I couldn’t be more proud of my sister. She has been through literally hell for so many years, and she has never once spooped to the level of her tormentors. She has forgiven me, even though I, through a misguided way, tried to protect her, pushed her away. I am forever grateful for her, and I can see how much her mate loves and adores her! She is amazing, and with Elijah by her side, they will be a force to be reckoned with. I listen with rapt attention when she is crowned Luna of the pack, and chuckle to myself. She was definitely not prepared for this, and she will bring down the wrath of Isabella later tonight. The glint in her eyes are equally proud and murderous. Elijah has no idea what is coming later. Then Elijah gets to the next part, and I clap while the pack cheers when he announces the Beta and Gamma have found their mates as well and accepted them. He calls them forward, officially making them ranked members, even though they have not been marked and one has

Elijah P.O.V. Dale keeps looking at Ashlee as if she will disappear if he doesn't keep an eye on her, and I must admit I know the feeling. I squeeze Isabella closer to me, taking in her scent and calming myself. I can’t believe the extent of my mother’s betrayal. I would have accepted it if she had kept it to the Caroline situation, as me and Isabella managed to solve it, but to change her fixation to Dale and Ashton, who is not even her own child, and take both their mates away out of pure spite. I’ll have to do something. I have to act and ensure the safety of my pack members! We are going to be a different pack with me as Alpha and my beautiful mate as Luna. She doesn’t care about species! Her concern is with the individual, and I have to agree. This purist bullshit has to stop at one point. I don’t know why we have beef with the local coven, but I actually have an idea, and I do not like it one bit. In my heart I ha

Isabella P.O.V. After an afternoon filled with unbelievable pleasure, and more orgasms than I couldn’t ever have dreamt of, Elijah and I emerged to dinner that evening. We were both furrowly satisfied and relaxed, having enjoyed each other for hours. Our mind-linkes had been off, but Dale got a message through to us by having an Omega knock on the bedroom door. Lucky for him, we were at a break and he delivered a written note through a crack at the door. I had laughed myself silly at Elijah’s displeased look. The note told us Alex had been in contact with him when neither of us had answered his mind-link attempt or answered our phones. I checked immediately, and he was right. I had five unanswered calls, and Elijah had four. The note said to call as soon as we got the message, and Dale told us he would be home with Ashton and the girls around dinner time. I called Alex, and we agreed to do a conference call after dinner - so here we are. “Hi guys.” I greet them when we enter the d

Isabella P.O.V. “I’m sorry, Selene. Grandmother. But where the fuck was this information when you watched me shift the first time? Is this why my mother did not die in that attack? Because it was an actual attack, right? I know she says it wasn’t. That it was planned. But it was, wasn’t it?” Selene smiles. “You’ve always been a clever one. Yes, the attack was real. I saved her and returned her to her true mate. They deserved to have their happiness ever after.” I nod, my head spinning. Then something hits me like a ton of bricks. “But why me? Alex is my twin. He must have the same blood as me. He is as much a candidate to be King as I am to be Queen?” Selene chuckles. “Yes and no. Alex is your younger twin, which makes him eligible to be King if you somehow die, which I do not recommend. And then there is your handsome mate there.” I growl, not liking her calling him that no matter how accurate it is, and no matter how much she is still my goddess. She raised an eyebrow. “As I was
