“Gentlemen…gentlemen. And Elder Lady. We are here to raise arms against the Holy Clan who have allowed an abomination to rise to power. Two in fact! My last intel provided that Prince Bradford was in Lycan form fighting song side his bride.” One of Anika”s attendants spoke up. “The Coming Sun has risen. You all know what that means for our kind! We will walk in the light of day! How could we fight her!” The Elder Lady spoke against him. “I have a duty to our kind to protect them. Imagine when the sleep comes…it doesn’t! Instead we conduct ourselves whenever we like. The productivity alone is worth this imagined betrayal.” “How can you speak such things? We cannot know what the consequence of that will be. You want to protect our kind then we take out the brat team out of the race!” Another kinsman exclaimed. Agitated, the Elder Lady spoke against him, “The last time I checked I was the only one leading this Clan. What I decide will be final. Anyone who wishes to fight against this

Raven followed the leaders back into the pack house. Alpha led next to Luna, her parents next, then her alone. After her, Bradford and Ashley. They entered the cloak room and the Lycans retrieved coverings for their human bodies. Raven listened to everything. She could hear the birds hinting to day. She could smell the blood and the dew on the grass. Her skin felt cold now and she was no longer human. She could feel the flowing of the source energy all through her body. Raven’s head was swimming and she disassociated from the group and allowed herself to be pulled out of her skin to another place, another dimension. Her ears filled with a soothing warm voice, “It is so wonderful to finally meet you.” She turned towards a woman’s voice and a shadow walked towards her in a blaze of light. As she came closer she was dressed in a white leather ceremony dress. On the front, designed beadwork resembled a silver haired Lycan in front of a soft blue moon. Her long silver beautiful hair fell

Sebastian kneeled before Raven. All of the Lycans gasped as they saw their Alpha King bow to Raven. Sebastian, lowered his head as Urich howled. The excitement could no longer be contained. Raven stepped forward and kneeled before the Alpha King. She delicately placed her two forefingers under his chin and lifted his head until they met eyes. “Alpha King Sebastian, please. You are Royal as well and should not bow to me.” Alpha stood and towered above her delicate graceful body. He felt his loins throb and could hear Urich begging to unleash himself onto his Mate. “My Coming Sun. My beautiful ruler. My Moon Goddess has spoken. You are my Mate. If you will accept me, I take you as my Mate here, now, in front of all of this new realm. Will you accept me?” Sebastian’s heart pounded slowly. He felt like it would protrude through this chest. “She will accept us?! Right?” Urich whined to Sebastian. Raven felt the closest to happy she would be able to feel without her human part. Happy was

Raven and Sebastian walked together slower. Alpha King’s chest pounded. Urich whined to be let out. He wanted to mate her. He wanted to taste her. His desires were so distracting Raven spoke up, “Not until after the ceremony. I have never…been deflowered and I want the first time to be to my husband.” Alpha King blushed. He reached up and scratched the hack of his ear, “My Goddess, we mean no disrespect. We are so pleased to have a blessed Mate. We lost ours long ago and I was sure I would never love anyone ever again. To look upon your grace, beauty, intellect and power is to see a walking Goddess. Please excuse our excitement. We are but happy fiancé to you.” Sebastian took her hand and stood in front of her. With his other hand he pulled her body close to his and lifted her up against his chest. Looking deeply into her eyes he felt love so strong he could just pull her into his chest to make one being if he could. Sensing his longing she reached up and cradled his face in her ha

Luna Avery slipped out behind her choices and closed the doors. Walking across the field she enjoyed that they stood at attention making three rows. Taking stock of the changes in them since Raven, she admired the streaks of silver in their hair. Who could channel her magic effortless was obvious as they were able to control the shift the longest and had the most silver. “There should be no question that I am leading this team. We shall be referred to as the Alpha Team.” “I will need to test your abilities, your worth and your loyalty. Your fighting skills must be top tier. You must be ready to kill at a seconds notice. Composure is a requirement as well. There are absolutely no moments to waste. If you are not up to this task, leave now.” Luna Avery stepped to the side to allow them to leave. A couple of them fell out and went back to the pack house. “They are not cowards. They are honest. My roll here is to figure out which of you are not honest.” She heard low growls from them
