Serenity It was bittersweet leaving Tay and his family. In a matter of twenty-four hours, they made me feel welcome and not like a plague walking this earth. They accepted me for me.We chatted until my cab arrived, and saying goodbye was harder than I thought it would be. I don't know if it's the fact of him being my mate or his presence that was comforting. Embracing him in a tight hug, I got even more of his scent all over his hoodie. Teasing his mark one last time, he let out a strange sound between a moan and a whimper.“Stay safe, hot stuff.” Tay turned sideways to hide his tears from me, but it didn’t mask the sadness in his voice.He closed the cab door and bolted into the woods. The sound of sad howling was heard driving away from Meadowood. I moved the pendant back and forth on my neck, thinking about how nervous Tay looked when he handed me my present. His brown eyes scanned over my face, his shaky hands when he put the necklace around my neck, and the deep breath he let o
JavonteMy dad received an email from River Valley informing us of the deaths of Alpha Kevin and Beta Rich; the email goes on to mention that Elder Jalen has been imprisoned for his involvement with hunters. The council members also requested that we join the Slasher Pack farewell ceremony and the initiation of the new Alpha and Beta. We arrived at the ceremonial grounds, and at the front of the podium lay Alpha Kevin and Beta Rich on decorative haystacks. On the stage were Camila, Corey, Lukas, and two other women, who I guess are going to be the new Alpha and Beta. The first girl stood up dressed in all black; her eyes were bloodshot red, and tears stained her high cheekbones.“Good morning, Alphas and Lunas, from the surrounding area. My name is Debbie Sims. Here below my feet is my father, Beta Richard Sims. His life and Alpha Kevin's life were taken away in a cowardly way. These men held this pack together and stayed away from war, but war found its way to us. As the new leader
Serenity: Age 21It's been two years since I came to Embermoon, and a lot has changed that needed to change. My magical abilities increased, and I got my master's degree in agriculture instead of computer science. I spent a fair amount of time with the nature witches, combining my elemental powers to strengthen our farmlands. I glanced around my room. Nala and Nina were both staring at me, waiting for me to open the manilla envelope with my new identity. They have been counting down the days and waiting to give me a makeover. I peeled back the top and removed the documents. There was a passport, a driver's license, a birth certificate, and a social security card. The girls snatched the driver's license and grinned from ear to ear. This was going to be a fun, permanent transformation. I sat in the chair and let the girls go to town with my new style. After hours of sitting and my butt going numb, the girls handed me a mirror, and the woman staring back
SerenityThe music was echoing through the house. Jordyn was grooving to the beat of the music as she entered my room with a tray. When she swung around, the tray had two shot glasses, sliced limes, and salt. She sat the tray on my vanity. I licked the back of my hand, just below the index finger, sprinkling salt on the wetness. I held the lime slice between my thumb and forefinger. With my other hand, I grabbed the shot glass and toasted it. Just before knocking back the shot of tequila in one swift motion, I licked the salt off and bit into the lime slice. Savoring the combination of flavors!“Woo-hoo, that's how you pregame before the club; hurry up; the cab will be here any moment. Don't forget your scent blocker.” Jordyn said, dancing her way out of my room. I put on my gold bracelet to mask my scent, and luckily for me, it matches the rest of my accessories. We climb into the cab, and she hands me a styrofoam cup filled with daiquiri mix. By the time we arrived outside the Dar
Javonte "Come on, guys, let's go celebrate Serenity's 21st birthday. That's a big milestone, even though she's not here with us.” Camila's bubbly voice suggested. “That doesn't sound like a bad idea. Plus, we can go to Dark World Nightclub to check on our establishment. We can see it from a customer point of view.” Lillian quipped. I sat back on the couch. Nothing these past two years has thrilled me since Serenity left. I had focused all my energy on combat training, lifting weights, and transitioning to Alpha. I glanced between the pair of puppy eyes staring at me and said, “Fine, we can go.” They jump up and down, squealing. If it weren't for it being Serenity's birthday, I wouldn't entertain the idea of going to the club to party and having bimbos throw themselves at me. Lee handed me a beer and said, “Let the party begin.” Lee drove us to the nightclub, and the girls had the music turned all the way up; the
Javonte I fell back on the bed, kicking and waving my arms around. I placed the pillow over my face and let out a menacing howl, followed by a series of screams.The room door busted open, and Serenity's hazelnut scent hit me like a freight train. I tossed the pillow to the side, and there she was, standing in a sports bra and leggings, huffing and puffing. I was on cloud nine. She was not a figment of my imagination. A smile graced my lips as she stood in the doorway with her arms across her chest, shaking her head.Was she out training? Did she see me have a full-blown temper tantrum? I rushed to her side, lifting her slim-fit body into my arm and passionately kissing her. She wrapped her legs around my waist as I made my way back to the bed. Our passionate kiss deepened both of us fighting for dominance. We broke apart to catch our breath when her hot mouth attacked my neck, where her mark lay.My body shivered, and the intensity of the tingles erupted everywhere. I bit down on my
Serenity I leaned up against the door. What am I afraid of? I have been anticipating this day for the last two years. Listening to Tay begged me to talk to him. I couldn't figure out the right words to say.What if he thinks I'm crazy when I tell him about the prophecy or the visit with the Triple Moon Goddess? With hesitant steps, I opened the door, grabbed Tay's hands, and approached the bed. I made him sit down while pacing back and forth, my heart racing with the weight of prophecy. He needed to know the truth. "Tay," I began, my voice barely above a whisper. I discovered something… the night I left. I encountered the legendary Triple Moon Goddess and the Graeae Sisters. The goddesses informed me that I was to bridge the gap between supernatural beings. I'm still not quite sure how to do that yet, so I rambled. And then, 24 hours ago, the Graeae Sisters communicated a prophecy."The one
Serenity I placed the ring in a petri dish in the center of the coffee table at home and sat back on the couch. Jordyn sat in the armchair with a red candle. “Are you ready, hot stuff?” Tay turned my head to look at him. “I'll be right here, whether it is a good or bad memory. I will be right here.” He placed soft kisses on my lips. I laid on his lap and gave Jordyn a thumbs-up. She lit the candle and then set the ring on fire. I shut my eyes and inhaled the smoke. I stood outside Embermoon Coven, The sun was setting over the mountain tops, and hues of red, orange, and yellow cast shadows down the mountain range. The skyline was crystal clear. The sounds of the nighttime creatures graced the air. A woman was sitting outside the coven entrance, admiring the sunset while nursing her baby. The woman was singing a song to the baby. The song had a catchy tone, one that I will not forget. It was about being powerful. The baby
