Shadow Moon Ranch Novels & Stories

Sweat trickles down my back, and suspicion fills my mind. “I don’t know. She was affected by it, she didn’t want to talk about it, because it was really…” “Mars, I’m pretty sure the moon goddess is the shadow god’s mother. I’ve read and researched about this a lot. Not just now, but before he even showed up here. I don’t know why whoever told you about it left out that part, but if you see them gain, ask who the mother is, or you can ask your mate himself.” He puts one hand on my shoulder. “I’m gonna go get the drinks from King and get one for myself. Stay put until I get back, don’t want you mistakenly falling into the river again.”

Wolves were running all over, and then she got a mindlink. "The Shadow Howlers are here, and it looks like they came to fight," Her dad said in the mindlink to the pack. Why would The Shadow Howlers come to their pack? They were the pack that basically policed other packs, but The Last Moon Pack hadn't done anything wrong. In fact, they were so vanilla that Bianca hoped her mate would take her away. She picked Trisha up and ran toward the pack house. They got to the front porch just as the warriors arrived.

Shadow was also a half-witch gifted with healing, but Moon Goddess somehow liked to play Russian roulette, and that one cartridge emptied at me. “Great. How’s Shadow?” “She’s in Italy with her father, doing Goddess knows what,” he said with a chuckle. “Well, her father has a private jet. She can come to you anytime.” “Well, this is not a courtesy call, isn’t it? Do you have trouble with other packs?” I instantly heard the worry in his voice. I knew if I got into trouble, Califf would have my back. “So far so good. My only problem here is these bikers. They like to bully the twins, but nothing a crate of wine can’t shut them up.”

Kaelen was our best tracker in Twilight Zone and also the head of our spy network. "I just got word that Moonshadow are preparing for battle against us. We intercepted some of their drones that crossed into our borders. Moonshadow has always claimed neutrality but I suspect that they are leaning towards Alpha Rune more. But more importantly, they have taken over the borderlands of Kursh." This was a chilling revelation. "They want to have over my gold mine? Tell Jaxon to ready his unit, we leave immedia...." Yvonne interrupted before I could finish.

I wanted to clear my mind, but all I could picture was Johnson's scared aquamarine eyes. When it came to pack business, the Shadow Howlers were completely lawless. They always slaughtered their own omegas, their scouts, and their trade drivers whenever they got bored. Our Western Alpha Syndicate never shared borders with them willingly. But one moon cycle ago, some foolish trade wolves left a cache of moon-gold intended for the Shadow Howlers at our Moon Docks. It caused a massive blood feud when they accused our alpha circle of stealing their pack resources.

“I mean, it was the werewolves who killed her parents.” Ryan looked away, not knowing the answer. “Let’s form an alliance. That way we can connect with each other through mind link.” Shadow suggested after a minute. Ryan agreed with him knowing is there was any trouble they would tell each other instantly. They both got off the edge and stood in front of each other. They grabbed each other’s hand. “I, Shadow, a rogue alpha, accept Ryan as my ally.” “I, Ryan, Alpha of Sunshine pack, accept Shadow as my ally.”

"To answer your question—Shadow is bred for the high-country hunt. He knows how to close in on a target without snapping a single twig." The implication that I was a 'target' sent a shiver down my spine that was dangerously close to a thrill. "Right. Helpful." He nodded slowly. "I can usually guess why a rabbit or a deer tries to vanish into the brush. Would you care to tell me why a member of my elite retreat was hiding behind a tree?" "I wasn't hiding," I lied, the words tasting like ash. "I was..."

“The north is still to be brought in line, there is much to do.” “Do you need more gold?” “No, I need buyers for the huge harvest we are intending to produce. The aim is to be the larder of the entire shifter nation. Shadowlands earth is the richest and easiest to farm of all the areas. No dense woodlands, cliffs or swampy lagoons to hinder us growing anything we choose.” “And your pack is with you?” “I believe so, after the Moon Goddess produced that tree on my crowning I think half of the villagers think I’m magical so there’s that bridge to cross eventually.”

"Elena, mi vida! Why have you and Sebastian been avoiding the countryside? Shadow has been moping by the stables—he's barely touched his organic apples all week." I couldn't help but chuckle. Shadow was Doña Carmen’s rescue stallion—a beast nearly two meters tall with a coat like midnight and muscles that would make a pro hockey player envious. He’d been blinded in one eye during a rogue skirmish years ago, ending his days as a pack scout’s mount. "You're teasing me, Doña Carmen. Shadow usually acts like I’m a ghost when I visit," I said, laughing. "He barely tolerates anyone who isn't a direct bloodline Blackwood."

immediately it was Hunter and Blaze and they were naked completely but I didn’t have time to focus on that. “Where’s Shawna and my babies?” I asked. Hoping they knew the way she went. “Shadow went that way after them, but I don’t know how far they are.” Blaze said. “Okay Lynn, Mina they went this way.” I yelled as my wolf went off at a dead run picking up speed. If I didn’t need this speed I would be scared as shit, but fear isn’t here tonight, not now. We came up on Shadow fighting off eight rogues that were circling him. He was hurt but he was still looking deadly, especially with the half-dozen dead rogues that were at his feet. Looking out the corner of my eye I see more Rose comin
