Chapter 107
Alora’s POV
Sitting in the kitchen next to my mate and with my family, I ate and savored the
connections and memories we were all forming. I felt like the sun was truly
shinning brightly on me today.
“Where would be a good place to train with magic?” my father asked Alpha
Andrew.
“The Heartsongs training arena and grounds were all fortified in their construction,
I have a Pack bus coming to pick up this lot here and take them there for training,
Enter title…
seeing as Alora and Victor have pretty much disabled my training arena.” he says
in a dry tone.
I blush, the Alpha doesn’t actually look angry about it, instead he looks amused.
“Your boy’s Daniel and Bryce are getting that squared away for me though, as
well as adding the wards and protections it needs to protect it from battle magic.”
The Alpha added in a cheery tone.
“You and Brock have been wanting to upgrade that training arena for years now,
your just happy you two have a valid excuse now.” said Luna Ember in that
‘you’ve been caught with your hand in the cookie jar’ mom tone.
Everyone laughs while the Alpha and Brock just look guilty. Seeing this made me
laugh and giggle harder, the others were too. “Well dad it looks like mom figured
out why your so happy the training arena was damaged so much” my mate says
while laughing. 2
His father glared and threw a napkin at him. “Just for that, your going to be doing
rounds with me and Brock again.” he says, the Alpha’s smile was almost
threatening in it’s glee. (3)
I pat my mates shoulder and say “Good luck my darling.” in a supportive ‘It was
nice to know ya’ tone. He looks down at me with a face of surprised shock. Darien
threw his head back and laughed at his brothers expression.2
“That my brother, is Alora tossing you under the bus with her humor.” Darien
managed to get
while laughing. I was struck with another fit of laughter and giggles at his
comment.
“You’ll be joining us too Darien.” said Alpha Andrew with that same smile that says
‘I’m a predator, and I know it’.
Darien’s laughter halts abruptly and my mate smiles at him in the same predators
grin as his father. Darien’s face is crestfallen, his mate giggles she pats his
shoulder and says “Just make sure you keep that pretty face of yours intact.” he
looks at her with a comically exaggerated look of surprise and offence.
I laugh with everyone else. “I believe Darien,” giggle “that your mate,” giggle “just
threw you,” giggle “under the bus.” I gasp out through my laughter and giggles.
He glares at me, and because he was sitting next to me, pushed me into Damien,
making me laugh harder. Serenity smacked him on the arm and giggled.
“Well as you are determined to abuse your son’s, I believe I will be spending time
as a spectator with our two pregnant females as you all train.” Luna Ember says.

A thought came to me “Victor, are you up to training in Kitsune form?” I ask him,
hoping he was.
He looks excited, then looks at his mate, a questioning look on his face, Jaxon
gives him a half smile and nods his head. “Yes, are we doing swords today or do
you want to do hand to hand and magic?” he asks me.
“Hand to hand and Magic” I tell him excitedly. This would be fun, I smile brightly
“Dad you and Cathel should come with us for training.” I say to him, looking at him
with a hopeful expression.
He smiles “Alright sweet girl, I would love to get the chance to do some training
with you as well.” he said.
I couldn’t help the excited jump I did in my seat at that or the nearly shouted “I’d
love that.”
My mate laughs at my actions, at the narrow eyed look I give him, he leans down
and kisses my temple, with a wide smile on his face he says “I’m glad to see you
so excited and happy about something mate.” his tone of voice sweet and loving.
His eyes sparkling with amusement and love.
Okay….so he was totally forgiven in that instant and my slight irritation vanished
as if it had never been. I smile back at him, then I lean up and give him a quick
peck on the lips. “Will you train with me too?” I asked him.
His smile still in place he nods “I’ll look forward to it, finish your breakfast my
Starlight.” I look forward and the others are staring at me with various expressions
of amusement, I blush and get back to eating my breakfast.
I had scrambled eggs with mixed peppers, onions and cheese, six sausage links
with maple syrup for dipping, two buttered waffles with maple syrup and fresh
strawberry and banana slices on top, and a small bowl of maple brown sugar
oatmeal with dates, and both golden and red raisins. O
It was a good sized meal for a Werewolf. To drink with the meal I had a large
glass of orange juice and
dark chocolate soy milk. I didn’t like drinking regular milk, it left a sour taste and a
coating in my mouth, That and to much dairy was bad, even for a Werewolf and
our super healing abilities. I knew the Luna got most of the food items from a local
source and the sausage was from wild pigs. ?
Werewolves are picky with their food sources, they felt that to eat well, you had to
be respectful of your food source. So while we still had junk food, we ate healthy
the majority of the time. A Werewolf’s metabolism was eight times that of a
human, so we ate a lot more. Fortified with a balanced breakfast, we all head for
the bus the Alpha had ordered, it was parked out front. One of the Alpha’s
Enforcers was the driver. 2
“How far from here is the Heartsong Mansion.” my father asked the Alpha.
“Not that far actually, the Heartsong lands border ours, they are farther into our
territory, closer to the Volcano. Actually, the Volcano itself and the surrounding
acres at the base for about fifty miles out are all Heartsong lands. There is a river
that water falls from the lake in the middle of the Volcano, it runs throughout the
Heartsongs lands into ours. The river is said to be the one where my ancestor
Lucian Blackfire met Luna Heartsong.”
“Who were they?” my father asks him.
So for most of the drive the Alpha told my father their story, with my brothers,
sister, Bella and all the others listening to him. I couldn’t help but listen too. The
story was worth hearing again and again. The drive to the Mansion didn’t take
long, the road we were on, was actually a road that lead directly through this
territory and the Heartsongs to the Heartsong Mansion
We get there and I’m awed, all around me is beauty, in the middle of the
absolutely enormous mansion was a giant willow tree, it was the biggest willow I
had ever seen, and there were blue flowers blooming on its vines. The tree stood
fifteen stories tall, the mansion was six stories tall and had at least fifty rooms on
each of its four sides. 3
I didn’t know how deep it was, there was a large round building that was just as
tall and wide around as the Mansion not that far away from it, and that was where
we were heading.
Once parked in front of the building we got off the bus, there were a lot of us so it
took a moment to get us all off. We stood in front of the massive building,
admiring it for a moment. There was an enormous training ground in the center of
the building, the building was deep, there were classrooms and weapons storage
in the building as well as living quarters.
There was a tall wide hallway that went from the outside of the training building to
the interior grounds. Directly across from the arenas opening, was the same kind
of hallway in the Mansion, leading from the outside to the courtyard in the center.
All the forests surrounding the lands were old, and the trees started out at fifteen
stories towards the Mansion and grounds, but in the distance there were trees
that were at least fifty stories tall. 3
There was so much power and life seeping from our surroundings, I could feel it
like a physical charge. It settled within me, welcoming me home, telling me I
belonged here. I took off my sandals and held them in one hand, letting my bare
feet touch the rich earth below my feet.
Beside me Damien did the same, I looked up at him. “Can you feel it?” my voice
almost breathless.
“Yes.” his voice was rough “We’re being welcomed home.” he says in wonder.
I lead us straight to the center of the arena, once we walked through the hallway.
Standing in the center of the arena, holding Damien’s hand I face him, he looks
down at me and we drop our sandals to connect with our other hands.
I feel our connection to the ground and lands, like roots of a tree, the power I
could feel in everything around us was immense. I felt like I needed to enhance it,
awakening more of the primal energy that had long gone to sleep inside the earth.
I felt so many veins of life spread out from me, including a few clan members
who’s bonds were severely mu ffled. “Damien” I say as my warning, I felt I needed
to do this, there was a reason behind it, one I think only the Goddess knew.
He nods his head. “Do what you need to do Starlight, I’ll be with you no matter
what.” he promises me, love in his eyes.
I shut my eyes and I feel it all well forward, then I release it, awakening powers of
those I felt along the threads that were supposed to be awakened. My father and
stepmother were just two of those threads. The ground shook around us, and a
rumble came from the Volcano. When I was done I opened my eyes, and
gradually the rumbling and shaking stopped.
Off to the side there was a yelled “What the f u ck just happened!” from a wolf I
didn’t know.
Alora’s POV
