Blurb: "I, Selene River, rejec..." I started speaking, but Alpha Magnus stopped me by placing his hand over my mouth. He pulled me closer to him and growled. "I'm not accepting your rejection, Selene," he growled. "You are my mate. You are the greatest gift that the Goddess has ever given me. I am not letting you go." "I can't let you go, my love," he mumbled. "I've waited for you my whole life." His lips brushed against the marking spot on my neck, and I almost burst into flames. Convincing him to accept my rejection would be the hardest thing I ever had to do. Selene is a 17-year-old girl who still hasn't shifted into her wolf. Her father abandoned her mother when she was very young. She has been bullied and laughed at all the time. After she lost her mom, the person who loved her the most, Selene is completely distraught and broken. Her father comes back to take her back to his pack. Selene is against it, but her financial situation forces her to go with him. Magnus is a Lycan wolf, the Alpha of his very successful pack. He is 22 years old, and he still hasn't found his mate. When Selene arrives at his pack, he is very surprised to discover that she is his mate. He is also frustrated because she is his stepsister who hasn't shifted yet. She can't recognize him as her mate. Selene struggles in the new pack. She doesn't have the best relationship with her stepmother. She can't wait to turn 18 and leave. What will happen when Selene finds out who her mate is? What will Magnus do after she rejects him? Will he be able to convince her to stay?
View MoreMagnus's povI could hardly breathe from how hard I was laughing. Selene had a look of absolute hate on her face. I could tell she was thinking about all the beautiful ways she could skewer us up. I dropped the empty bottle down beside my chair and looked up at the place for the one-thousandth time. It wasn't much but I fancied it. It was somewhere I could see myself living in. Or grandma even. The thought of my grandma threw me into a sober mood. We had to leave Moonstone at a moment's notice, I wasn't even meant to join Gabriel. It was one of those moments, one where you knew you had to make a decision. Watch him leave with the girl I loved and go tell grandma and the entire counsel or help. I was stupid enough to have done the latter. But I haven't talked to Mom for so long. She must be so worried, I sighed miserably and ran my hand through my hair.“You okay Magnus?” Selene's voice drew me out of my sober thoughts. I turned to her and smiled.“Yeah, I'm fine.” My smile must hav
Selene's povThe car came to a stop in front of a quiet-looking cabin at the top of a desolate hill. My father stopped the vehicle and stepped out. I stepped out too and so did Magnus.“Is that the place?” I asked. It looked like the place someone who could help with an awoken demon lord would live.“Yes, this is the place.” Replied my father.“Why did we stop over here?” I asked. The cabin was still a good way off and the ground was level enough for us to just drive through.“You'll see why.” My father replied.The place was serene and beautiful. I don't know what exactly I had been expecting to see but this was not it. It was way better than what I had envisioned.The cabin was a simple building, made entirely of wood, like something out of a Vikings movie.My father looked back at me and Magnus. “Wait here.” He said before making his way slowly and cautiously towards the cabin.He walked strangely, looking down at the ground and studying the trees that were around.“What is he doi
Selene's pov.I listened to the sound of the rain as it drummed against the hood of the car. It was almost hypnotic. Sleep, sleep, sleep that was all that I wanted right now but it seemed the universe could not grant me that one single wish.“Hey.” My father said but I was not in the mood to reply to him or even look at him for that matter. I turned my face away and looked outside at this whole new strange place. Magnus turned in his sleep and snuggled close to me. I looked down at his handsome young face. Some people had it all in life. A mom, a dad, and a whole extended family. But my… “Selene please talk to me!” My father pleaded. But what was there to talk about? I had had no idea that my mom had been fighting with her illness for so long, that she had been in pain longer than I had been in this world. A sigh escaped my lips. “I'm sorry about everything.” He said and sighed.” I'm sorry for leaving you and your mother, but the thing is …” he ran one hand through his hair, “I wa
Gabriel's povMy legs hurt and the distant feeling of vomit sitting at the back of my throat like some final boss was not helping me on this trek. It has been a good two days since we arrived in Iceland, and the entire company was completely exhausted. I could not vouch for anyone but I could bet that I was the most exhausted one out of the three of us. From time to time I remember a time it had been four of us. An extra one that had been my responsibility to care for, one I had allowed to be corrupted and destroyed.“It's beautiful here,” Selene remarked. I looked around at the scenery here. I left Iceland a long time ago but even in my memories, it had been a place of extraordinary beauty. It was a good thing that it had not changed. “Yes, it truly is,” I replied. It was hard not falling asleep while driving but Magnus was a terrible driver. Selene was completely out of the question. Completely.“So this is Akur…”“Akureyri.” I helped. She rolled her eyes and nodded.“Rolls off t
Magnus's povThe smell of the air, the way the population sank into your system and corrupted every single aspect of you, that was what almost defeated me at first and then I saw his face.The feeling in the air was not something that needed an explanation even for the most inexperienced of people. It was evil, pure undiluted evil that had risen from the depths of hell. The evil had come for everything that I had held dear. Daruis's formerly dead body floated in the air with a ghastly-looking smile on its face.“Rise to your feet!!!” He roared and a strange force carried me up in the air. I tried fighting it but I felt like a three-year-old wrestling an adult.“You stand before the one who came and conquered, you stand before the demon lord of old Azareal, you stand before the one reason I haven't killed you already.” He turned around to the opening mass on the wall of the cave. Smoke rushed into our world, black and horrid smoke that almost blinded me. A faint orange glow was visi
Ansari's pov“HOLD HER!!!” Adolphus screamed, but he was not the one being stared at. The guard let go of my hand and backed away. Good. I struggled to my feet and looked down at the crowd. I looked down at my brothers and sisters.I pointed at Adolphus and looked back at them. “Is this who you want to follow? You all know the words, you all fought that night. Instead of Selene, it could be your children, it could have been your mothers, it could have been your wives. That night we all came together and fought, why?” I pointed at my heart and then at the ground. “ Because this is our home, these are our people and I'll be damned if I allow so devil take it away from me. You call yourselves wolves, well now is the time to prove it. Who fights for their home!!!”And there I stood with not a single response from the crowd. I looked from one face to another, looking for a positive response, any response but they all stood there and watched, they all watched me without saying a single wor
Ansari's povMy eyes were wide open from shock and pain as well.“Get her up!” The cruel old voice of Adolphus seared my hearing. I was dragged to my feet by two strong pairs of hands and I was brought face to face with him. We were standing outside the cells on a high elevated platform. I was looking down at a full gathering of wolves who had come to watch what would happen.My people.He looked at me with cruel hateful eyes, the complete epitome of hate and jealousy.“You really do not learn do you?” He asked.He must think I was the one responsible for the death of the guards and every other person that Darius murdered.I chuckled. The old fool was so sure of himself.“Why did you do this? You know better than trying to escape this place. There is no escape from your crimes. You kaut be punished and you will be punished so why murder your own people? People doing their jobs.” He asked, his voice thick with anger and confusion. But I knew deep down within him he was glad.They had p
Selene's povA strong wind blew through the entire cave, sending packs of dust everywhere including my eyes. Daruis's spell on me held strong and I still could not move my limbs. Blood and dust pack around the cut. The blood flowed down into a little gutter, one I had not seen or paid any attention to earlier. The blood through the little channel down to the gate. Fucking hell. I struggled some more but his spell held for and strong.The wind centralized on one spot and a faint glimmer of light shone. Daruis's face turned pale at this because at the center of the cave now stood Magnus and my father.My heart leaped with joy, I had never been happier to see my father before. Never.Magnus ran to the corner of the cave and vomited. He stayed that way for a while, vomiting the little he had inside his stomach. My father turned his eyes towards us and a gasp escaped his lips.“Selene!!” My father called and ran towards us.“Oh shut up!” Darius said and flicked his hand away. A strong
Selene's povBlue sky, stars, thunder, and home. My kind spawned through several sceneries that I had no idea existed. My mother stood in front of me one second and the next second I was all alone. I was back in the house in the woods with succubus trying to eat me. “You thought that was the end? You thought you could escape me?” It broke into a terrifying laugh and my entire body was shocked. A wolf broke through the rotting wall and attacked the monster that should have been the end of me. I fell from the hand of the demon and landed on my back on a plane. “Oww,” I groaned and struggled to my feet. The plane was on fire and I did not need to be Einstein to know it was going to crash soon.“Selene!! Hold on!!” A voice said above me and when I looked up I was suddenly in the air, my feet dangling over space my hand in Magnus's grip.“Hold on Selene!!” I could not hold on though and my hands began to slip.Terror seized my heart as my mind focused on the drop below me.“Selene, ho
