Conri and Laszlo stood outside the small cave, 'We must not rush in, she is not expecting us, if we startle her she could kill us.' Conri cautioned and Laszlo grinned, 'She has not seen me since I was a newborn brother she will not recognise me.' The older boy chuckled, 'Do not underestimate her Laszlo.' He moved towards the entrance keeping his younger brother behind him their eyes quickly adjusting to the dim light inside, 'So that is where the colour of my Wolf comes from.' Laszlo gasped in surprise and staggered back when the huge silver Wo

They returned to the Camp and left her to go and find their tent and she hesitated, Lucas was angry, extremely angry she could sense it and even though she knew he would never deliberately hurt her she felt a stab of fear, this time she had gone too far. Lucas turned as the beautiful Silver Wolf trotted into the circle his Pack had formed when they made camp, he stood quite still as she stopped and eyed him, he felt no surprise when it was Artemis who spoke to Apollo, 'Run with me.' She asked him and because Wolves do not have the emotional hang-ups that humans have Apollo surged forward and Lucas shifted letting his Wolf chase after his mate as she raced through the trees and out into the valley lengthening her stride so he had to work to keep up. She came to a stop near his lagoon, panting slightly she waited for him to ca

He turned to the members of his Coven who had formed a circle nearby and gave them a quick nod while quietly they began to chant and their magic surrounded her settling the fear inside her. The pain disappeared instantly and her breathing returned to normal she opened her mind to the Warlock and felt his magic entering her, calming her. He placed his hands just above her belly and began chanting softly along with his Coven and Katya drifted off into a peaceful sleep and Lucas frowned, 'You sent her to sleep?' The Warlock smiled back at him, 'She needs to rest and reserve her energy for the birth, she should sleep until this little one decides to meet her parents, it will not be an easy birth, her magic is strong it is why she has developed so quickly, she is powerfu

The training had been intense, the Warlock had explained to Lucas that they had to be in prime condition, mentally and physically to defeat the Vampyres. He looked across at Katya she was sparring with the Warlock, who helped with the training even though he would not be joining them at the battle, with his Coven he would be nearby helping through the magic. He could feel the blackness surrounding his Luna, the Pack would beat the Vampyre but it was going to cost her very dearly, he just hoped she was strong enough to survive what was coming for her. He wanted to warn her to help her prepare for the darkness that would engulf her but it would mean his death. The Goddess had told him why he had been chosen to help the Silver Wolf birth her daughter and that he would be rewarded. Unless he told her what he knew and then they would make him suffer, he had a mate and four children back in their lands, and from what he saw Katya was tougher than all the females he had ever met and her bond

He wants to rape you, Vampyres use sex to control the females they capture, you must be careful he will do what he can to make you pregnant and be able to keep you. If you need us touch the amulet and we will know and use our powers to help you as much as we can.’ He placed his hand on the top of her head and she closed her eyes letting his reassurance seep into her body and then gently licked his hand to show she understood. He gave an almost imperceptible nod and she turned to race off through the trees watching her sadly the Warlock called his people to him and led them into a clearing where they began to chant the incantations to activate the amulet he had given her. They held hands and formed a circle then they became still waiting to protect the young Luna with all of the power they had.Katya had no recollection of leaving Lucas’ side or re-entering the
