Her pack has always meant everything to Angel, so her transition into Luna won't be as hard as she might think it will be.
GABRIEL Angel’s heat was even more intense because of her having two mates. Thankfully, Mom and Paula had brought over things that we would need throughout her heat. We certainly needed to have plenty of refreshments and snacks. Chocolate was a running theme, which made our mate extremely happy. Her heat ended by the time that we woke up. The timing was perfect though because Anthony and Rose were slated to be here in a couple of hours. I had to smirk as I watched her walk past me to get into the bathroom. Her body was covered in marks that my brother and I gave to her. She told us that we made her first heat an unforgettable experience. She had never felt anything more incredible and felt that we were even closer to each other than we were before. I would have to agree with her on feeling even closer to her. It was like our bond became even more fortified. “The extra shower is free,” Grant said as he walked into the room, drying his hair. “I still think it’s ridiculous that she
ANGEL Rose was the most precious little one. Goddess, she was so damn adorable. I felt for Anthony and Rose. Their situation was unique and one that I could appreciate. He took her in as his own, giving her the love and support that she needed. As someone who was adopted, I could say with certainty that blood did not make family, but the heart did. People often said that you could not choose your family, but you could. I could not choose whether or not I shared Josef’s DNA, but I did choose to not claim him as kin. In the same way, the Vesters were my family. It was funny how fate worked out. The Gods certainly knew their way around the gameboard, arranging people so that everything worked out like it should. Anthony had Rose and was worried that a mate would not accept her and him together. Similarly, Sasha had her son and felt the same way. They were exactly what the other one needed. I had a great feeling about them. We took Anthony and Rose to their suite so that their luggage
ANGEL “I’m sure you have plenty of work to do just like I will be. It’ll be okay. We can spend a few hours apart,” I told Grant who had an adorable pout on his face. I was going to be spending some time with Elle to discuss this whole Luna gig. It was hard to wrap my head around the fact that I would be inducted as the next Luna after graduation. Was I ready for such a responsibility? I sure as hell did not feel like it. “Yes, doll, we will. How am I supposed to be separated from this angelic face right here?” he asked as he cupped my cheeks. “It’s so kissable.” He pecked kisses all over my face before taking my lips in a passionate kiss that left me needing and wanting more. It took all of my strength to pull away from that toe-curling kiss. I was totally convinced that their lips were made of magic. “It’s not like I want to be away from you either, but we have to be responsible adults.” I heard Gabriel snort at my statement. My eyes narrowed at him. That jerk just crossed his a
GRANT Angel was spending time with Mom to learn Luna duties. She did have a good point that my brother and I were raised, knowing that we would become Alphas. We were trained since we were pups in how to run a pack. That did not mean that we were truly ready or anything. Dad became Alpha when he was eighteen when his own father was killed. It was supposedly because of a rogue attack but turned out that it was one of many traitors that the pack had back in the day. Identifying and handling traitors was actually one of our biggest Alpha lessons. Gabriel and I knocked on Dad’s office door. It swung open to reveal Uncle Apollo. He gave us a regal wave to enter the office. He was one of our favorite uncles. Uncle Dante was number one, but Uncle Apollo was a very close second. “Welcome, Alphas. Come on in. We’ve got gifts,” Dad said, putting his arms behind his head and leaning back in his chair. We flopped down in the chairs that sat in front of his desk. Our uncle poured two glasse
ANGEL Kalen called me to see if I was free. Apparently, she desperately needed my help with something. It sounded urgent, so I told her to come over at any point. I was playing with Rose when I heard my name being called. I got up and held my hand out for Rose. Sol’s mark started heating up when I got closer to Kalen and Maddox. I could see an aura around them that clearly denoted darkness. “Who is this cutie?” Kalen asked as she crouched down in font of Rose, who shyly blushed. “This is my cousin’s daughter, Rose. They just moved to the pack so that Anthony can help train me. He ended up finding his mate here too. Okay, little one. Let’s get back to Daddy. I think he’s with my mates.” Kalen placed a kiss to the top of Rose’s head, causing her to giggle. Then I grabbed her hand in mine and swung our arms as we walked. I had so many damn questions that would have to wait to be asked until we were alone. It had come as a shock when we came to find out the truth about where Kalen
GABRIEL We were currently in one of the conference rooms, waiting for Axel, Darius, and Ryker to join us. Aria agreed with our picks for Lamias. Now, it was just up to them to decide if they wished to join our leadership upon the induction ceremonies. We decided that Aria should be inducted at that time as well despite the fact that she still had a year. We really did not care one damn bit. It would be all of us or none of us. Angel was sitting on my lap. We were flanked by Grant, Zade, and Aria. Then our pack’s current leadership was also here to offer their support. Brianna, Tinsley, and Bronx had been fucking amazing additions to this pack’s leadership. They were the very first Lamias ever blessed by the Goddess. There was a knock on the door, and Uncle Apollo walked over to open the door. Then he moonwalked back to his spot next to his Alpha. That was where Zade got his personality from. It set the three newcomers at ease. “Take a seat if you dare,” Angel said, steepling her f
ANGEL I had been stuck in my head since I woke up. The dream that I had was amazing. - The summer sun was shining down on me as I was unloading a picnic basket. Grant dropped down behind me and kissed his mark. I felt him smile against my skin when we heard two sets of giggles. Gabriel was chasing two small pups through the grass. The little boy looked just like my mates, and the little girl looked just like me. They could not have been older than three. “Mama, Little Alpha Emerson won the race against Little Alpha Mia. They’re going to race again after lunch,” Gabriel declared. Grant and I clapped our hands as our pups came rushing over and jumping on us. - It felt so real. I was not certain if it was just a dream though. If those were our future pups, it looked like we would not wait very long before getting pregnant. There were many factors that would play into the right timing though. We still had school, would be taking over the pack soon, and had an upcoming war to worry
GRANT Dahlia had reached out to our parents regarding the information that we had gathered from Maxine when Angel interrogated her. Dahlia had originally told us that she would get back to us when she had something concrete to relay. Apparently, she found something concrete. Our parents sat down with Gabriel, Angel, and I so that they could relay what information had been gathered. Apparently, Maxine was being honest when it came to who got told about our pack. We had already altered the patrol schedules after interrogating her. Nightshade was already a beacon for those who sought power. Even before the Supernatural Council came into play, our pack was already one that drew idiots to it, seeking what was never theirs in the first place. The good news was that it took a while, but Dahlia was able to track down the Río de Fuego pack’s location. It took a lot of fucking effort, but she was able to hack into their pack’s server. That gave her a sneak peek into everything. Josef was th
