Lilith's POV
The moment my eyes locked onto Simon; I knew it before Nova spoke. The word "mate" rolled off my tongue like it had been said over a million times. The familiar feeling had presented itself with Connor the moment Nova reached out to me, but I was too busy focusing on what was about to happen. The sensation caught me off guard the moment it happened with Simon.
Nova: What the hell is going on!?
I couldn't answer her. This was all new to me just as it was for her. It felt as though we were being lied to. The discomfort coming off Connor before the sensation hit told me he knew already. Breaking my hold on Simon's dark gaze, I glared at Connor whose eyes were turning red.
"You've been lying to me." I sneered causing him to wince, jerking his attention back on me.
The crimson in his eyes began to fade as they opened wide in shock. His jaw dropped and he moved his hand from my back. Before he cou
Happy Halloween everyone! I know every culture celebrates holidays differently but what is your favorite thing about the "spooky" day!? I enjoy the scary movies and shows that play during this time. I am SUPER excited and LOVE the new Chucky series too! I'm hoping for a crossover with the two different Chuckys. My kids love dressing up each year and will walk until their buckets are full of candy. Yes, there is some whining as we get close to ending the night but eating their candy makes things worth it! This year my 7 month old will be dressed as a baby lamb, kinda like Lamby from Doc McStuffins. My Almost 3yo will be dressed as a Dalmation. And my 6yo will be dressed as a Black n Silver Ninja. (He says it's Scorpion)
Connor's POV Breakfast was surprisingly peaceful. Simon joked mercilessly with Lili and I allowed it. If it came down to us sharing her, Su was right, I'd have to learn to share. I still don't know how my final reaction will be if she does end up choosing the both of us. Dior isn't too happy about it but the wariness of being rejected or agree to two mates nagged at me. Ethan:I found the girls' phones and clothes. I'm heading to you now. Ethan was good at not dragging things out. He was always short and straight to the point, unlike Su. She had a passion for testing my patience for some reason. As if she heard me, her gaze rested upon mine. "News?" Swallowing the last bite of toast, I nodded. "Ethan found their stuff. He's on his way." "I assume our clothes will show what happened to us both?" Opal sheepishly inquired. "That is what I'm hoping for. We should be able to smell who it
Simon's POVWhen Lil and Connor had finally returned to Su's, I knew instantly that Lil had made contact with her Lykos. Her scent was stronger and difficult to resist. It took everything in my soul to hold back from saying "mate" in front of her. The agreement with Connor was frustrating but I understood the reasoning and didn't want to make Lil's life harder.The moment the word rolled off her tongue, I had to fight against Loki as I attempted to prevent myself from jumping her. The aroma of sex surrounding her and Connor didn't help with the urges pressuring me. I thanked the Gods when she had her tantrum and rushed through the house, locking herself away with Su upstairs. Trying to listen in frustrated me more when I realized the room was soundproof. I made sure to take note in case of anything dirty happening In the next few days.Lil came down and pretended nothing had happened. The time we spent before my change must have g
Unknown POV I followed the familiar scent of the new girl, Lilith, while in my wolf form. There was more about this girl that I needed to know. What was her home life like? Who could I use against her? My main concern was her destroying my plans of becoming Luna for this pack. If I didn't get rid of her soon, I would lose my chance of gaining this pack's power. Currently, Lilith was only a threat to me by being the mate of the Alpha. There were ways to prevent her from reaching her potential and I was going to use each and every chance I got. A scent is like a fingerprint, unique and different from anyone else's. Lilith's was easy to follow as I discovered her home. A decent, two-story home built a good distance from any neighbors sat where her trail began. Using the shade from the surrounding trees, I trotted as close as I could get. A middle-aged man was muttering curses as he threw things from the top floor. It was apparent
Lilith's POV It took several hours to prepare for the party. The size of Su's house did not help. Before it was time for the party, people had begun piling in the front door. Because I didn't know most of these people, none of them greeted me as they did with Su and Connor. Several people made their way outback after their greetings and sat around the pool. Talia made sure to arrive fashionably late. Instructed by Connor, Opal and I hid in the kitchen area with Simon guarding us. The excitement of having Simon near wasn't enough, I desperately needed both of them by my side. My red-headed mate let a joke slip here and there but mainly stayed lost in thought. Something bothered him and guilt riddled me for not knowing what was wrong. Thankfully Connor and he were communicating on a friendly basis as they spoke to each other the way Nova speaks to me. He advised us when Kyla and Alexa attended together and how Talia trailed in about th
There was a spell set in motion for me to turn into a monster!? When Kyla didn't respond fast enough to Connor, he stormed around the island. Terror flashed in her eyes as the Alpha hovered over her. His hand grasped her throat and I watched as her eyes bulged from his squeeze. Her face turned a light shade of blue as the blood flow cut off. "I asked you a question!" He shouted in her face. "We don't know!" Alexa screamed for her friend. He jerked his glare to her cowering in the corner of the kitchen. Kyla dropped to the tile as he released her but his face remained contorted in anger. He motioned to Kyla and Alexa as he continued. "Pretend everything is going to Talia's plan. I don't want her to know we are on to her." Simon leaned forward, resting his hands on the island. "Have you met the warlock?" Kyla shook her head as Alexa answered. "I have, he's cute." "Did he know what Talia had planned?" He quizzed her as Con
Simon's POV As I watched my mate be announced to the pack as someone else's, I found the desire to storm into the celebratory cheers and announce myself as her mate. Loki fought me on my temptations and I obliged him. It didn't stop the pain in my chest from making it difficult to breathe as I soaked in the attention Connor gave her. To make matters worse, Talia caught my scent as she stormed towards the house. I grimaced as Lil's eyes darted between Talia and me, watching her own suffering flash in her beautiful blues. I ripped my gaze from Lil and focused on the incoming target. Talia may wish I was her target but she was dearly mistaken. I stashed my disgust for the whore in an imaginary box and mentally locked it. Her hand whipped her hair over her shoulder as she swayed with more force than necessary over to me. Her fake eyelashes held on desperately to the glue as she swatted them at me. "Since when were you an Alpha?" She cooe
Lilith's POVThe furiousness coming from those around me burned my skin. I could feel them but I couldn't hear anything. Everything became muffled the moment the warlock revealed I was cursed. The monster I was to become in a matter of two days, would be killed by my own mate.The warmth of a mate holding me kept me from passing out but I still wasn't present. My mind swirled with fear of dying at such a young age. A small part of me had confidence in my mates to rescue me from my fate but I couldn't allow myself the relaxation of thinking they would succeed. Nothing is worse than raising your hopes to only die at the hands of someone who should love you without restrictions.Would there be a chance of me turning into a Vargulf and still being accepted by Connor and Simon? By the Night Blood pack?I could feel a change in our location. Instead of the must of sweaty bodies, it felt cool yet warm. Somewhere I wouldn't mind si
