After Quelle and Neven left to go to the Radiant Guardian pack Carmine decides today is a good day to introduce Wisdom as the true Alpha. But not until he speaks with Beauden, so he asks to talk to Beauden alone. Wisdom takes their daughter to the patio with Deshal, Idris, Kiri, and Einar. Einar can’t stop thinking about the statement Wisdom said about the scent she smelt and that it has been lurking around her all her life. He’s wondering who and why the person does that and doesn't want her to know. Einar thought maybe it was a witch or warlock who was waiting for Wisdom to come into her powers. If so, why hasn’t he or she confronted Wisdom or at least made themself known? He’s brought out of his thoughts when Kiri rubs his arm, she had been talking to him for a few minutes. She notices the look of concern as her mate is looking at Wisdom. “What’s wrong?” Kiri asks through their link. “Maybe nothing, I’m not sure.” Einar kisses her head, 'Nothing to worry about. At least for n
Alpha Shaf stares at Athena talking to someone about a beast that’s about to surface .” Surface? Who in the hell is Lucius?” He mumbles and wonders who she’s talking to. Then he heard Fierce Growlers pack. “That’s Carmine’s pack. What does he have to do with this asshole?” He’s still mumbling while listening to his mate. Athena hangs the phone up looking at her confused mate. “It’s a long story. Keep an open mind.” She sits beside him and takes his hand “I love you.” Then she tells him about Lucius rising from hell, the Pobos, and the war. Athena looks at him concerned. “Okay, I’m with you so far.” Shaf nods, "I think."“I’m Athena the Goddess of War and Wisdom. Yes, I'm your true mate,” she tightens her hold on his hand. He rubs his forehead with his free hand. “Wait a minute, how could that be? What about that bastard Poseidon? You know the Sea God. Sweetheart stop kidding around.” "Pure fiction. Poseidon is my uncle. Like many of the Greek gods, did not behave with perfect m
The following morning Wisdom is on the balcony of her bedroom replaying everything that has happened since she returned home. The familiar scent has been bugging the hell out of her. She’s looking at Chickpea sleeping in her rocker. “Your mommy is missing some major details." Wisdom looks toward the woods and sees a man waving at her then he vanishes. “Who in the hell are you?" She sniffs in that direction but doesn’t smell anything “A warlock or Hybrid that can hide his scent.” “Who’s a Hybrid or Warlock?” Beauden walks on the balcony.“I’m just thinking out loud about the person that has been lurking around me.” Wisdom looks at the spot the man disappeared from. “Later this evening there is somewhere I need to go. It’s something that I need to do alone. So, you’ll have to keep our daughter.” Beauden starts to protest but he doesn’t want to get on Wissy’s bad side. Besides, he knows she can take care of herself. That still doesn’t stop him from worrying about her. He’s brought
As soon as Wisdom, Beauden, and the others left Herb told Boyd about the things Wisdom had done to Maeve. Boyd called him a liar until he saw unhealed tears on Maeve. Now Boyd is trying to figure out what Wisdom is and why Beauden said she was an Alpha even if he did smell the blood of Alpha in her it was mixed with a sweet scent that he has never smelt before. Herb is more concerned if Boyd is planning to get revenge for Maeve. Then he realizes that Boyd is more interested in Wisdom. He’s about to say something when Doctor Ceille enters the room. Doctor looks at Alpha Boyd with sympathy “sir your daughter isn’t healing. Sooner or later the silver that’s in her system will kill her. “ Boyd taps the arm of the chair and narrows his eyes. “Now that’s interesting. How can a shifter handle silver and it doesn’t affect her? “ “Hybrid,” the doctor nods, “Alpha Wisdom must be a Hybrid. Vampire perhaps.” “Why did you call her an Alpha? Neither the Alpha nor I ever mention Wisdom as an
Now that Mazi has told Peyton about the gold Triquetra and its meaning of it. He’s thinking back to the day Yesena was born. His Luna bowed to Wisdom. He nor Deshal knew why. The more he thought about it Wisdom seemed to be somewhat bewildered by it. Now he knows why his brother wants Wisdom because she’s powerful. Peyton knew Whitman had always had a thing about power. When Peyton became the Alpha of their Father’s pack Whitman pretended to be happy, but Peyton saw through his fake smile. But he never mistreated his little brother even when Whitman left home to explore the world. Whitman said he wanted to find his place in life. Orm Peyton’s Beta enters the office to inform him that Whitman has committed a crime by meeting with rogues. “Damn it, I knew his stupid ass was up to something.” Peyton slams his hands on his desk. “Any rogues in particular?” “Jonny and his brother Jon are the last two the warriors saw him with. They’re locked in the dungeon,” Orm sits down and inform
Seventeen-year-old Wisdom is lying in bed thinking about her father, Ossian, and her mother, Larisa, They were killed last month when rogues attacked the pack. Wisdom regrets she couldn't save her parents because she has never been allowed to train to fight or shift. Deshal Gordon, Wisdom's best friend, reminds her every day there wasn't anything she could have done to save her parents. Deshal found his mate Idris Marcy a few days after his eighteenth birthday. Wisdom and Deshal have been friends since she was five and he was seven. He and Wisdom were shocked that his mate was a man since Deshal had always loved fast girls. The faster, the better. He didn't hesitate to accept Idris because he and Wisdom knew the Moon Goddess wouldn't have designed Idris for him if they weren't meant to be together. Idris fitted right in with the two of them. He wasn't jealous of their friendship. Idris looks at Wisdom as his younger sister. Wisdom and Deshal have never figured out why Alpha Carm
Wisdom meets Deshal and Idris after leaving the pack. The three had pedicures, and she and Idris got their nails done. Deshal is waiting for her and his mate to finish when two young ladies sit beside him and flirt. He ignores the ladies and even shows them he has a mate. Idris stops talking to Wisdom and raises one finger. "Hold that thought. Do you see those two Ms. Thangs hitting on my man?" "Yep, we know he'll put them in their places if they continue to make fools of themselves." Wisdom is looking at the pink nail polish on her toes. "Good choice." She sees Deshal walking to them. Idris hasn't taken his eyes off the two women. "Just look at their sleazy tails. Can you believe they had the audacity to think they can have my man?" He kisses Idris's forehead. "Ladies, this is my boyfriend. Should I say any more?" "Deal with it—damn cheap and trashy asses." Idris snaps his fingers twice. The two ladies hurried out of the spa, saying they couldn't believe that the 6'3
"It's our birthday. Wake up. We're eighteen, and our mate is out there waiting for us," Sequoia yells in Wisdom's head. Wisdom sits straight up and looks around her bedroom. She shakes her head and rubs her forehead. "I must be hearing things." she chuckles, looking into the hallway. "No, it's me, your wolf. My name is Sequoia. It's good to be able to communicate with you finally. Sequoia talked about when they were young kids, and she wanted to talk with her. She doesn't know why today is different, and Wisdom can finally hear her. We have a lot of catching up to do." "Sequoia is a beautiful name. Our parents say a mate loves you unconditionally. As for our mate, I'm looking forward to meeting him too. Let's hope the Moon Goddess has designed a caring, strong man. I hope he doesn't get on my nerves and doesn't talk too much. I dislike a man who talks too much. " Wisdom slides on a pair of yoga pants and a tank top and jogs out the back door. Wisdom runs through her backyard
