Shadow Hedgehog Maria Novels & Stories

Reid retorted. “Let’s set this straight. You thought it was a breaking-in? Like some type of Kyros-the-villain thing?” “It wasn’t?” Reid asked looking so confused. “It was a spider!” Maria said with a furrowed eyebrow. “A what? Hold on, that look doesn't go well with what you just said. You know you’re shitting me right?” “It was a spider, Reid. A goddamn spider!” “What?” he laughed unbelievably. “A spider?”

"Read it. I found it lying there when I came in." It took less than thirty seconds for Santos to skim through the contents, and his brown eyes nailed Shadow to the wall as he asked, "What are you going to do about it?" Maria was halfway up the stairs when she heard them yelling, both wolves were riled up, and Tempest urged her human to hurry. Throwing caution to the wind, Maria phased into her wolf, lurching up the rest of the stairs and gripping her claws into the wooden floors, using the traction it provided to gain momentum as she threw her tawny body at the study door,

"Is this officially the entire load for delivery?" Aling Maricar nodded quickly. I noticed her eyes resting on Dominic with a profound, quiet happiness. A soft smile graced her features, and it was in that very moment that I truly realized Aling Maricar had quite literally witnessed every single milestone of Dominic's growth. She was so visibly, genuinely proud of the young man he had become. She suddenly shifted her gaze toward me, offering a knowing little smile before turning back to address Dominic.

Wanting to reassure the brunette, Luna opened her mouth to say a few words of comfort when a second voice filled with urgency yelled out to Maria. "Maria! Move away from there now!" Akihito's relaxed posture from before vanished, frightful eyes fixated on Maria. Who cluelessly tipped her head to the side when she noticed a large shadow fell over her. Maria craned her head back, emerald eyes transforming into saucers when she saw the robust build of a creature. Its arms and legs were thick with muscles and covered in shabby armor, but it had the face of a pig. 'An orc?!' Maria was caught off guard by the creature sudden appearance.

Harold had made sure I understood that much. “What does it really mean?” I asked Maria, but she was already walking away, her maternal instincts warring with pack loyalty. The next evening, I drove my car to the coordinates Harold had provided. The Shadow Ridge territory was thirty minutes outside the city, hidden in dense forest that probably hadn't seen human feet in decades. Ancient pines towered overhead like cathedral spires, their branches blocking out most of the fading daylight.

Maria caught the scent of a vampire; it was sweet, and it was close. She stopped and looked around. Lorenzo followed her scent and appeared right in front of her. Maria was getting ready to attack when Sara called out “Mate!” James also landed right next to her in his huge red dragon before she could process what Sara her wolf said. Maria got so scared that she forgot what she was even doing there.

Her hands went around my neck and she jumped up, putting her legs around me. She stopped kissing me but didn’t let go. "You’re hanging onto me like un oso perezoso." "What’s that?" Maria asked, still not letting go. "You better not be calling me a monkey." "No, es uno sloth. Like the slow animal, hanging a un árbol [on a tree]." "I'm a sloth!" Maria exclaimed as she laughed loudly and looked at me. "I should have chosen that as a nickname. You should know that I'm one of the pack's fastest soldiers. Only Alpha Moon is faster."

Regardless of the knots in my stomach, I needed to eat and soon. “This damn mate bond! I haven’t even had a chance to check on my pack training nor do any other work since the arrival of the Full Moon pack.” I grumbled moodily. I was losing focus of my responsibilities thanks to this rising revolution and this insufferable mate bond! ‘Calm yourself my dear; our mate is a gift from the Goddess. We are a strong being; Mother Selene would never do something outside reason. She has the answers to all your questions.’ I was slightly shocked to hear Shadow’s voice, but as usual her voice of reason within me with her calm and soothing voice washed my worries away and provided a solution to my probl

Fortunately, Beta Morgan intervened in time and had Drake and Marvin switch seats. The meal was sumptuous, but I had no appetite. Throughout the dinner, Drake kept staring at me with a hostile gaze, making me feel uneasy. I avoided his gaze and turned to chat with Marvin. Marvin was a well-built but simple-minded person, inheriting Luna Irene's fiery orange hair and Alpha Joan's straightforward personality. "Marvin, how's life at the training school?" I casually brought up a topic. "It's great. The training is tiring every day, but I've made many friends there. Most importantly, I met my mate at the school. She's an Alpha, the most beautiful woman in the world. I feel so lucky to be her mate

Malachi, eyes scanning the horizon, suddenly pointed, "There, in the distance! A shadow, out of place amidst this luminescence." The guardians followed his gaze, and indeed, a dark form seemed to be approaching, its energy clashing with the radiant vibes of the grove. Isolde, her instincts kicking in, said, "We need to intercept, and understand its intentions." Liora, holding out her hand, produced a gentle orb of light. "Let's use this to guide the shadow, lure it closer." The shadow, drawn to Liora's orb, began to take a more defined shape as it neared — a cloaked figure, its face hidden, emanating an aura of chaos and disruption.
