Bourbon

Christian’s POVDon’t judge me. But in my fucked up head something almost snapped when I saw her in his arms, soaking wet and wearing nothing but a flimsy cloak. It’s Hunter for fucks sake, he would never be inappropriate with her, my rational mind knows we can trust him, but I’m not in a rational mindset right now.Every head turns away as I march up the stairs towards our room. I’m not sure if they are avoiding my eye or seeing their barely clad Luna. Either way I’m glad to reach the door without interruption.“What are you doing?” Liberty’s laugh pulls me out of my destructive thoughts. She tries to take hold of my hands as I fiddle with the wet, swollen cord tied at her neck.“You are soaked, I don’t want you to catch a chill.” I explain as I work to strip the sodden cloak from her shivering body. It’s not a complete lie, but I have other motives to relieve her of the saturated garment. She only has to look down to get a glimpse at my primary motivation.No matter how much I have

Esme's regret

Esme’s POVRejecting our mate and walking away, leaving a shattered man on that mountain, was the second hardest thing Ari and I have ever had to do. The fist was returning today to face them after so long. It is something I have both longed for and dreaded.Ari knew we had no choice, but a wolf feels the loss of their mate on a level no human could ever understand. The mate bond is spiritual for both souls, the human and the wolf. But for a wolf it’s so much more, their mate is literally the other half of them, separated by the moon goddess only to find each other again and become one. Human souls are complete, so if a mate rejects them, they will feel the pain but often still thrive. If a wolf is rejected by it’s mate once they have found them, their soul never becomes complete and withers away or becomes feral and jaded, warped by the excruciating pain it endures every moment of every single day. Rejection makes rogues and it is a fate worse than death for most, which makes it an

A new day

Liberty’s POV I woke up this morning with a new sense of purpose and the resolve to do what needs to be done for us to live a life of peace. Yesterday was a weird day, it felt like a dream, but also a nightmare, if that makes any sense. Finding Aunt Esme exactly as I saw her, was surreal yet also confirmation that my visions are in fact very real and accurate. I allowed myself to feel a momentary rush of relief when she stepped out from between the trees, but I hadn’t expected her arrival to stir up so many latent emotions. For weeks now I have known that finding the seer would give us a much needed advantage over Kendrick and whatever nefarious plans he was no doubt concocting. Discovering she was my Aunt, only moments before, added a whole new layer of emotion and all kinds of questions I never knew I had. The way she greeted Hunter is very close to the top of the list of curiosities. My new Beta was very tight lipped about his connection with Esme, if it wasn’t for my newfound in

The truth will out

Hunter’s POVChristian’s words of warning from last night echoed in my head as I stood at Esme’s door. Have faith, things happen for a reason, she is here, she is actually here. Could this be the second chance I never truly dared to hope for? I’ve spent many nights thinking about what I would do if I saw her again, pretty much every scenario has run through my head several times. Well, that’s what I thought, but I was woefully unprepared when I actually came face to face with her yesterday. She looked at me as if her rejection was a figment of my imagination, a bad dream I have relived every night since. I probably should have waited until my head is clearer before deciding to take matters into my own hands. If Christian hadn’t cut me off half way through my second bottle last night I would be even worse for wear this morning. As it is I feel better than I deserve.I saw Liberty arrive a little while ago and figured that if someone else is in the room things will be less awkward, or a

The library

Zanders POV The immense black Ash doors to father’s library felt so much heavier to my younger self. Back then it would take all the strength of both Christian and I to open one of them just enough to sneak inside. The intricately carved scrolls and mysterious glyphs which protrude from the wood, would leave their imprints on our backs and arms in return for our gargantuan effort. The bruises were worth the reward of entrance to the most magical place either of us had ever seen. Christian and I had very active imaginations as pups, I’m sure it must have driven our mother to distraction, not that she ever showed it. When we returned from traveling with her, we would race through the pack house to the original part of the building, full of expectation and excitement, loudly discussing what adventure father would take us on this time. It had quickly become our custom, whenever we returned home, and Father never disappointed. He would sit us on the giant, black bear skin in front of the

Marcel

Liberty’s POV“Good rest Luna?” Hunter smiles at me warmly from the overstuffed, floral armchair the other side of the bed. The teacup he rests on his knee looks comically tiny compared to his huge frame. I never would have pegged him as a tea drinker. He comes across as more of a ‘Strong black coffee, no sugar’ type. Frankly every man I have met since being here is enormous, rough and ready and … well honestly, pretty intimidating. All of the rumours and whispers I heard about the Black’s of Pine Lake, and their most feared warriors, now make total sense. I was terrified the day I woke up here and realised where I was, I dread to think where I would be now if I had run off like l had thought about.“Yes, thank you Hunter. I didn’t know how tired I was until I sat down.” I feel great now, so full of energy.“I would like to take a look around, perhaps go and see the training field in the daylight. We can watch the men train for a little while, then have lunch in the main hall with the

Talk of Vampires

Christian’s POV“Christian. Everything is okay, Liberty is fine, but I need you to come to your mother’s garden.” Hunter calls to me over the mind link.“Why doesn’t it sound like everything is okay?” I ask. Liberty has been getting better at blocking me and Zander, so when our tether felt kind of numb earlier, I assumed she was just practicing. Now I’m wondering if my assumption was a little hasty.“She passed out for a few minutes, it was another vision, I think. She is awake now, and perfectly fine, just a bit freaked out. She said she needs to ask you something. She won’t say what, but it sounds important.” He sounds confused. I think he is talking to Liberty whilst linking me.“Bring her to our study, I’ll meet you there. Has she eaten yet today?” Esme gave Zander and I the bollocking of our lives when she caught us leaving our room this morning. We have been a bit lax with routine since finding Liberty, both of us wrapped up in getting to know her and spending as much time toget

Shit storm brewing

Hunter’s POVChristian and Zander prefer their study, to their office, and can usually be found in here. Well, until they had a Luna to keep them occupied, that is. The office was their father’s and the two of them tend to avoid it unless they have a meeting with a visiting Alpha they aren’t familiar with. The study is much bigger and has all the creature comforts you could want for a busy day of meetings and paperwork. Informal but functional. Three large, leather Chesterfield sofas fill most of the floor space and create a square, with the original, red brick fireplace on the fourth side. The fire casts a warm glow over the room and the heavy velvet curtains stop the draft from the old single pane, stained glass windows.“Wow. This is so cozy.” Liberty wriggles in my arms until I put her down. She has spent the whole way here insisting she is capable of walking, but to be honest I would rather hear her complaints than put up with my Alphas’ jabs and digs about her safety. I’m sure I

Past, present and future

Christian’s POVMax forced his way to the surface and leapt straight through the window in the study. He has been running through the forest for a little while, Caleb is right behind us but keeping his distance, Hunter must have sent Gerald and his wolf, Titan. I’ve caught the occasional glimpse of his uniquely striped, grey and brown, coat weaving between the trees to my right. The thought of something happening to Liberty and Justice is too much, then add to that the revelation about our mother, I’m not surprised Max needed to get out of there and run.Everything Liberty said sounded like a work of fiction, until she mentioned the gown the woman was wearing. Blue, with sequins and beads at the bottom, it’s too similar to be a coincidence, and Esme’s one word answer confirmed the crazy thoughts rolling around in my mind. What liberty saw was my mother in the past, but also herself in the future. They are the only two people who would ever wear that dress. My father in the past, me in

Allies?

Marcel’s POVTwenty five years is a drop in the ocean to my kind, not even two percent of my life so far. It has to be said, in over a millennia, I have never awaited a moment with such eager anticipation. The convergence of so many fates, their paths influenced and manipulated by forces beyond their comprehension.Everything has played out exactly how they said it would, the chronicles have remained undiscovered until today, entrusted into the guardianship of a most unlikely friend and comrade. All the players in the future war are in place, the only thing missing from the volatile mix is a catalyst.I postulate for a moment that it should be called The Present War now. It’s been coming for so long it started to feel like we would never catch up with the future, yet here we are, on the cusp of our making, or demise. The elders, for all their wisdom, never saw the outcome. All we have been able to do is stack the odds in our favour, recruit the most powerful clans and covens, set whee
