A Great Sacrifice~Freya~Gabriel growled in pain. There was nothing he could do. The executioner was set to decapitate him.I begged for mercy but it only made matters worse. Lyra comes rushing in with the twins.she must have heard that Gabriel's head was about to be chopped off. "Please don't hurt him. Alpha Kane. I beg of you." Lyra pleaded, she must have inquired about why I never showed up when I promised I would which led her to find out about Gabriel."Aha. So those babies were with you all this time! Bring them here, Lyra." Alpha Kane ordered. Lyra hesitated, she could not stop crying as she looked at Gabriel. A guard held her on the spot and motioned for her to step towards Alpha Kane. She took a step forward. "Lyra, please! Don't give my babies to him!" I cried out. I couldn't stand Alpha Kane taking my babies away from me. They must have known that their mother was in some kind of trouble because they began to cry. Their cries made me want to protect them from Kane.My
Reunion~Freya~Modan is predominantly populated by humans, so we had to behave more humanly than feral. We don't want to get ourselves hurt or killed by frightened humans before we arrive at our destination. Another obstacle to finding Orion as soon as we reached was that we couldn't go from door to door asking if they had seen someone like him, that would be foolishness. "Now that we are here, where do we go next?" Lyra asked. "I think we should look for elder Franklin, the swordsmith. That's the name you Orion wrote on the paper you gave me the day you helped me escape." I told Gabriel. "Yeah, I think we should look for him." He nodded in agreement "But we need to ask around to know where he lives."We asked a few people and they directed us to where elder Franklin lived. He was kind of popular here because it didn't take us long to locate his house. "Good day. Please is this where Elder Franklin lives?" Gabriel asked a young man who answered the door."Yes. I am his grandson
My Fate ~Orion~My breath caught in my throat at the sight of Freya. This isn't real. I thought I would never see her again and there she was standing with Gabriel, who I also thought if I did not act fast, I would never see him too. I embraced her like she could disappear at any moment. "What happened to you?" I asked. She smiled. "A lot.""I thought I lost you." "Won't I get a hug? I went through a lot too" Gabriel opened his arms. This gets us laughing. I released Freya and gave him a brotherly hug. "Thank you for bringing her back.""No, she brought us back. Your Freya is now a strong woman." Gabriel said.I stared at Freya like I was just seeing her for the first time. she looked more beautiful, even with her oversized dress which I was wondering where she got from. "Indeed only a strong woman will be able to birth you two lycan pups." My mom said. She had been holding a baby in her arms. But I was too drawn away by Freya to notice there were two babies in the room. Until
~My first~FreyaI was relieved to see that he was okay. He hasn't changed at all although from his appearance he looks more messier. Although he looked like a good pile of mess.He was shocked to see me standing with the others. He thought it was only Gabriel and Lyra who had come back. I would have bet my last penny in Moonstone Haven that Orion wasn't emotional or rather doesn't allow it to show in front of others. He wasn't called a ruthless Alpha for no reason. But the Orion who rushed out of the house was the complete opposite of the Orion I knew. Maybe because he was Alpha then.I thought he was going to take the babies into his arms when his mother told him the twins were his, but he ran out. "Ooh. He wasn't expecting fate to have this in store for him." His mother said shaking her head. Gabriel went out to check up on him. He was back in no time. I have never seen grown men cry aside, Ryan and Orion. They were men who would give the perception that they didn't have a tear
TelepathyOrionA girl I fell for at first sight. A fragile, helpless maiden now transformed into a strong woman. One I chose as my mate. I couldn't be more proud. She couldn't shift when everyone else could. She was ridiculed. She didn't let that deter her spirit. She eventually came out stronger.When she told me she could read my thoughts. I thought she wanted to pull a fast one on me. But she had all my thoughts bare in front of me. I have heard of the ability of telepathy. But they were rare. Some say they are a myth. But here was my mate, a telepath. But what I didn't understand is that the old Lycan book said for someone to be a telepath, one parent has to be a witch. A werewolf had to copulate with a powerful witch to have offspring with telepathic abilities.But Freya…I had to confirm something. I went to see my mother. "Mother, there's something—" I paused, trying to process my thoughts. 'There is something I must ask you." "Oh. I am all ears," she said."Do telepaths
The BirthMarkFreyaI couldn't keep it from him any longer. I had to tell him what was coming. Our little excitement and reunion could be ruined at any moment. He needed to know.Orion seemed not to care about what the future held for him as regards finding his real family. He wasn't affected by anything I said. I was unable to prove if my speculations were true. Could Kane and Orion be related?I walked in on Orion without his clothes on. I apologize for the intrusion. Since coming here. I and Orion haven't been intimate. I haven't gotten the chance to glimpse his body.He laughed and pulled me back into the room to kiss me. He told me I wasn't supposed to apologize because I was his wife and mate. That's when I saw it. The Birthmark. Just like on Xandra and Alex and also Kane.My hand touched the mark. My fingers moved around it without saying a word. I was only asking questions in my head. What if they were related?"You have never seen this?" he asked. "Yes, I have never no
~Rogues on the Chase~OrionI went after her. She was determined to save the humans. "Freya. Wait! You shouldn't. This is a human community. We can't expose ourselves without caution," I said."So you want us to hide away? Maybe I would have done that months ago when I was still weak. I would have looked away." She stopped walking and turned to look at me. "But not now. I can't watch them get killed by rogues. You know we can stop them. It's easy for you.""It's none of our business. We came to Modan to lay low." He crossed his arms. "They are rogues." I laughed low in my throat. "You believe that. You are a Lycan fit crying out loud! Those rogues have got nothing on you. You are just adamant." She continued to walk. I had no choice but to follow her. She was right. I am not the Orion she knew. The one in her past. Betrayal has changed me, waking up one morning to realize the life I am living is all a lie. I had no family to call my own apart from my adoptive mother. Finally, when
A Lycan's TemperFreyaOrion released me to go confront the rogues. If he hadn't held me back in time, I would have been there challenging the now-dead rogue leader. Orion handled the matter like he was still Alpha, the authority that radiated from him when he was speaking was amazing. I could feel the rogues getting intimidated. He had asked me to see what I could find in their thoughts. I was surprised too, when I heard them ask for Orion. Who would be looking for Orion? It has to be his enemies. Orion's friends and family are here with him. So whoever is looking for Orion, is someone who doesn't mean well. I did as he asked. It was Damian! I knew he would find out Orion was alive. It was just a matter of time. He had read to me for a long time without me being aware. His finding out was inevitable. But he never mentioned it to Kane. I knew. He never did. He wouldn't want him to know. I wanted to learn how to fully use my ability too. Damian could block me when he wanted. He
