Lunaya.
My head felt awfully heavy, and my skin crawled with an uncomfortable heat. I squeezed my eyes together tighter, trying desperately to get my bearings.
“Lunaya” a soft voice sung to me. It sounded like soft bells in my ears. I forced open my eyes and stared up at the ceiling. The face of a beautiful angel came into to view above me. My Alyse. I lifted my hand to gently stroke her cheek. She gripped her hand over mine and squeezed it.
“Are you okay love?” she asked, her face furrowing in concern. I didn’t answer just stared into her beautiful green eyes.
“Come on, try to sit up” Alyse said pulling at my hand and lifting me up off the ground. She held my hand in hers, gently stroking it with her thumb. Her other hand was placed on my back to support my sitting frame. I looked around and saw the faces of Hina, Pappi, Elaine and a few other women, all looking down at me. I rubbed my fingers over the back of my
Zelena.The words cut me like a knife. Spartan didn’t make it. No wonder Cole doesn’t want anything to do with me. It’s my fault that his father is dead. The hunters came for me, if I was never here then Spartan still would be. All I have brought this pack is death. I still don’t know exactly how many Weres died the night of the battle, but right now I can only focus on the one. I remember clear as day when Gunner explained why the packs were so willing to die for me. Because I am a gift from the Goddess, a beacon of hope for all Were-kind. Well how much hope am I offering Cole now? It’s not my place to mourn for Spartan, after all, I only met him a few times. But why do I still feel like I have lost someone dear to me? Is it just the guilt? No, I don’t think so. It’s Cole. Our relationship had a rough start, but we came around, he came around. And before that damn battle we were good, we were friends. But now he is hurting, and it&rs
Zelena.Dinner came quickly after we got back to the house and Roe put on quite the spread. Along with the usual family members, she had invited Smith and his mum Deena. I hadn’t seen her since the day of the battle, she left on the bus with many of the other she-wolves. She was very excited to sit and gossip with me. Also in attendance was Tobias and a warrior wolf, who’s name I believe is Felix. No Cole. After the events of this afternoon, I was exhausted and feeling too dejected to fully get into the spirit of family dinner. I hated that I was being so rude and withdrawn from everyone, but I was just not feeling it. After the main course Gunner came to kneel by my chair, drawing me from my blank daydream.“Come on love, let’s get you to bed” he whispered, placing a soft kiss to my cheek.“Your mum…”“It’s fine, don’t worry about it” he cut me off.I looked over at Roe and s
Zelena.“Are you sure about this?” I asked Gunner, still not convinced and feeling a little reluctant.“Yes” he groaned adamantly, for the tenth time.“The pack deserves to celebrate and so do you” he said more gently as he rubbed his hands up and down my arms.The thought of throwing a birthday party, crossed with a new Alpha and Luna ceremony, crossed with the ‘arrival of the Goddess’ celebration, or so Roe called it, all seemed a bit tacky. Granted the attack was over three months ago and I’ve been back at home in the pack house for just under two weeks now, try as I may, there was no talking Roe out of this. But I understand, kind of. The pack went through a lot with the hunter attack, and they haven’t had the chance to celebrate their new Alpha, with everyone being in mourning. As I have been told many times now, the blessing of the chosen daughter, or me in other words, is a huge deal to al
Zelena.We all climbed into the car, Roe in the passenger seat and Felix driving, the rest of us in the back. Nat, as per usual, hooked up some music for the trip. And we were off. The drive was slow, especially as we got closer to the city. It looks like everyone is out and about, trying to make the most of their last week of summer break before the new school year starts. I am so damn glad that I don’t have to do the high school thing anymore. That place was hell. I’m also so thankful to Lupus, he pretended to be my father and told the school that I finished my senior year doing online schooling. I was able to graduate and got my high school diploma. After everything that I had to endure during my schooling, the last thing that I wanted was to be a high school dropout.“Once we get to the centre, I want you all to stick together. No stragglers, and no one is to walk off alone. Understood?” Felix’s commanding voice filled the car. We all
Lunaya.Staying true to her Seer ways, all Pappi told me was Nova Scotia. No town name, not the name of my daughter, nothing. I wonder if the hunters kept her birth name, engraved on a dainty bracelet they wore on the wrist. I wonder how she escaped them. So many questions. A frenzy of emotions swarmed through my body. Joy, because she lives. Fear, that she will reject me as her mother. Anxiety, being forced to wait even longer before seeing her. Pride, that the Goddess has once again risen, and from my child. But above all, hope. It has been a long time that I felt true unadulterated hope. There have been flickers and small glimmers of it over the years, but they dissipated as quickly as they arrived. This time, the hope stays. It warms my body, prickling over my skin and coming to rest deep inside my heart.Although I fought to leave Luna Eclipse right away, I reluctantly agreed to wait a few more days. Hina has ordered that her Beta, Elaine, join us on the trip to N
Lunaya.So, she wants to tease me. I leaned forward and look her bottom lip between my teeth and growled. She hummed and snaked her hands up my neck to my hair, slowly pulling out the band to release my golden-brown tresses. I let go of her lip and she stuck out her tongue, flicking it over my lips. Moving my hand to the back of her head, I crashed my lips to hers and hungrily kissed her. She slipped her tongue into my mouth and deepened the kiss.I stood from the chair, keeping Alyse in my arms and carried her to the bed. I gripped her backside to keep her body against mine and gently laid her down, perching above her. I unbuttoned her jeans and pulled the zip down. Leaning my weight on one arm, I kissed her eagerly while moving my other hand under her jeans and to her sweet spot. I traced my fingers across her moist slit, and she moaned into my mouth. The fire of my desire exploded with just that one beautiful and erotic sound from her, a desperate and hungry need se
Lunaya.Only twenty more minutes. The alarm will go off in twenty minutes and then it’s time to get up, get dressed and leave Luna Eclipse. I have laid in bed wide awake for just over an hour now, the excitement running through me just won’t let me sleep. Even falling asleep to begin with was difficult. Alyse, as usual, is passed out and curled up under my arm. She needs the sleep, so I won’t move yet and risk waking her.Seventeen minutes. If only I had the will power to stop staring at my watch. I closed my eyes and tried to imagine what my child might look like today. Would she resemble me at all? I picture her with soft brown hair like my own but with Micha’s pale skin and bright golden-brown eyes. Both Micha and I are tall and muscular, so I would assume that our offspring would fare the same height and strength. Though being the chosen daughter of the Goddess and being blessed with the power of telekinesis, that is strength enough alone.
Lunaya.We picked up our bags and headed out into the small clearing in front of the dining hall. The snow had stopped falling through the night, but the ground was covered in knee deep fresh powder and the wind was harsh against my bare cheeks. It was still dark and too early for the other pack members to be awake. Pappi stood holding onto Hina’s arm, as they said their goodbyes to Elaine and the warriors. Alyse and I stood to the side to give them some privacy. It didn’t take long for Elaine to embrace Hina, kiss Pappi on the temple and turn to walk over to us. The other warriors joined her, and we all started to make our way out of the village. I stopped at the edge of the tree line and turned back to look at Hina. She was still standing and watching us closely. I offered her a wave and in reply she nodded her head slowly. I turned my back to her and caught up to the others. It took Alyse and I three days to climb this mountain and find Luna Eclipse. Now, we we
