**Sasha Pov***I sat in Madame Luxs coven spell room hidden in the crypts of New Orleans. It had been a blissful few months with my daughter and my mate. We had been doing spell work to look for the cauldron to finally finish off Carmen. However Madame Lux and I had foreseen a future where demons walked the earth again but we had worked out the spell Carmen was weaving. She had the good sense to stay quiet as I wove a personal spell using a red candle. When I was done I sighed. Sadly watching the red candle burn."Love spell?" Madame Lux asked."Not quite but a spell that will help someone love again." I sighed."Sasha?" She began."Don't" I stopped her sending her a smile. "I couldn't bare it Madame Lux. I have always known this it has always been in my bones somewhere I am not scared of what is coming for myself I am just worried for my friends." I sighed. "You and I both know we cannot change everything but we can use it to our advantage." "Sasha ....." she trailed off knowing the
***Charlie POV***Carmen reached for me again but I couldn't be touched. Sasha glowed an eery white as she threw Carmen across the room."Even if you best me here Sasha I still win. You either let the portal open or you sacrifice your friends life to close it. Either way Selena the Moon Goddess loses again I kill her heir again and the prophecy plays out anyway." Carmen laughed menacingly. The big black doors the portal to the other world strained. Sasha ducked a spell and hurled one back at Carmen who smashed against the rock face unconscious. The portal glowed stronger still as panic built in me."Sasha." I screamed "you have to get these chains off me I have to close the portal." I cried.She looked at me sorrow in her eyes. She suddenly looked so young like the scared teenager I once knew. "Only a death blood sacrifice will stop such vile magic." She answered sadly. "Then so be it. Sasha help me." I roared as the portal seemed to begin to open, panic and desperation now gripped
*** Alpha Liam Pov***With the Royal builders help the new Celtic Crescent Moon pack house was almost complete it was a little more modest then the Pearl Moon Pack house but i had left it open to the potential to expand. My daughter had sent some un mated warriors to help me whilst I built up and trained the packs own ones. We were now no longer hidden so needed to strengthen our defence and quickly. Danny was no longer training the warriors here but we had a plan to create a Royal academy where wolves would attend and learn a range of things including magic, fighting, tactics and more importantly tolerance mixing with other species. He would work there with the Fianna warriors in an elite squad.I smelt my beautiful flower before I saw her spinning toward the scent I saw her beaming. Luna Catherine and Alpha Williams were with her."What?" I asked sensing her excitement.She placed a white stick in my hand and I glanced at it the little window read "pregnant". As Abigal was a fairy h
***Adams PoV***We sat in some tavern sipping whiskey and waiting for our food. We were all tired and dishevelled after days of negotiations with the Sirens. Some resolution had been met and we had removed the werewolves from any involvement but the Sirens would continue to battle out their own political war but now neither side could no hire or use the werewolves as informers on the land around the islands. I had been raised knowing I would be a Beta but no one had raised me to be a royal Beta and political issues had never been in my mind. I was born to fight, protect and enforce but I was enjoying the negotiation side.The waitress dropped our food onto the table as per usual she had first tried to get Emmett's attention with her flirtatious behaviour, but as usual Emmett was cold to her, polite but cool and she re directed it at me. I still by nature enjoyed a little flirt but no one came close to Casey. The waitress leaned low flashing her cleavage my way but I kept my eyes on he
**Charlie POV**Emmett sat where Danny had been as he pulled me and our baby into his huge arms."Hes perfect." Emmett whispered. "I am so glad I made it here you have no idea what the journey back was like." He added. I laughed as Emmett told me about feeling the labour pains and that Adam felt Caseys he outlined how he would ensure all warriors with pregnant mates would be re stationed close and I chuckled thinking how it took one King to feel labour pangs and a whole law would change but it was a good thing so I didnt tease too much. However when he gleefully announced he could now say he knew what labour was like i was quick to repeat his mother's words to him telling him when he pushed something the size of a Melon out the hole a size of a golf ball we would talk. Emmett wisely changed topic. I told him about the plan to send Max to train the youths in the Italian Pack and he was hesitant in agreeing to Daphne's joining him but I put my foot down and seeing as I just had his pup
***Charlie POV ***I sat at my desk Ash slept softly in my arms as I read through the report from the pup school requesting a new teacher I happily signed off my name to the request granting them the new teacher and moved to the next request it was a reporters request for a portrait of the the Princes and Princess for the supernatural press I sighed as I declined the request. This was a double edged sword hiding their identity protected them but also encouraged those to seek them out to get the precious picture of them and a big pay day. Emmett and I agreed once they were a little older we would let the world see them. I looked up as a gentle knock tapped me door I caught his scent and smiled. "Come in Danny." I called as he entered he had two take away coffee cups with him. Danny seemed to have taken a liking to nearby coffee shop and found any reason to stop there and bring me one back. I took the cup thankfully and sipped it. "Thanks Danny. Your right it has the best coffee in to
***Daphne POV ***I wandered a little from the cottage into the trees and stopped in a clearing that looked like a little herb garden I could smell the various herbs growing there. I smiled thinking of Sasha's pots of herbs that Danny still watered on their apartment balcony. "They never really leave us you know." a voice said and I jumped slightly. I turned to see a young woman with long black hair she wore a green sundress. "the ones we lose stay with us." "How...." I began to ask how she knew I was reminiscing about my friend. She smiled softly as she moved closer to me. "I have a gift." she shrugged. "Are you Greta?" I asked her and she laughed "No Greta took me in she is my mother in many ways. She raised me and thought me to use my magic." She explained. "But I have been waiting for you to find your way here Daphne." I froze when she said my name. "How would you know I would come here?" I gasped. "I didn't but Sasha told me you would." she said as my head became more mudd
Danny POVI stood awkwardly outside the nightclub. I had left Sage with a nanny but I was riddled with guilt having told Charlie I was working tonight and that Anthony and I were tracking a lead. I hadn't been in a nightclub since before Sasha had got pregnant, even then that was for her. I was awkward in this type of place. I wore a black button down shirt and dark jeans as I waited for Anthony. He soon arrived and with a nod to the bouncers we jumped the waiting que and entered. I sat at one of the VIP reserved tables and ordered a bottle of Scottish aged whiskey for the table. Soon Anthony and I were half way down the bottle of whiskey when I began to feel its effects. The music was loud and the club was in full swing as I stood up to the rail to look down at the full dance floor. I scanned it carefully before I spotted her she was dancing with a few other girls. My heart jumped when I saw how she danced like no one else was there, she laughed and smiled like she hadn't a care in t
