An unrelenting power suddenly flooded Romans body, seeping into his soul.
He squeezed his eyes shut.
And when he opened them, Abigail stood in front of him, bathed in a silvery glow.
ABIGAIL Abbys wolf purred, urging her to wrap herself around her mate.
He smelled better than he ever had, and his body radiated a pleasure-filled pulse.
Unable to stop herself, she buried her face in his chest and inhaled deeply.
She felt a rush of euphoria, like shed gotten into those wild mushrooms that grew on tree trunks.
She let out a giddy laughshe felt like she was going to float away!and gripped Roman tightly, then rubbed her face back and forth on his chest, lost in the way he felt against her skin.
ROMAN Roman groaned.
Hed been wrong.
Hednever felt this way beforeeven ~as~ a horny teenager.
But he had to stop this.
They couldnt be this close to the pack with her in heat.
He needed to get them out of here immediately.
But a sudden wave of possessiveness hit him, and he pulled his mate tighter against him instead.
His wolf growled at the thought of her being out of his sight.
Luna…Abby…I think its time we go to the cabin.
She was still rubbing her face back and forth on his chest, silver sparkles falling to the floor between them.
Mmm, I like the way you feel.
She pushed herself into him.
The way your skin feels against mine isamazing .
When her hands started roaming his chest, he threw his head back, his breaths coming in short bursts, his deep rumble causing the windows to shake.
A light bite to his nipple made his eyes roll back in his head.
Oh Goddess, he moaned.
I like the way you feel too, sweetheart…but I think we need to get packed and head out.
No, she snapped, and she grabbed on to the counter, her arms braced on either side of him, caging him in.
I know, sweetheart.
Believe me, I do.
But we need to go.
I promise well pick this up in less than an hour.
He felt her push back against his alpha power, but he was more than willing to take her on.
Her power started to come in waves, and his nerves fired up as he felt everything coming from her.
But his wolf would never allow her to dominate.
Roman scooped her up like she weighed nothing, chuckling at her low growl.
And I promise you, on the Moon Goddess herself, we will continue this.
*** While Abby packed, stomping around as her wolf grumbled, Roman checked in with his leadership.
Then he called Michael and Fiona, letting them know theyd be at the cabin for the next few days.
Everyone was understandably nervous to be without their alpha and luna at a time like this but knew it couldnt be helped.
A group of warriors were standing at attention when Roman and Abby came outside.
Theyd accompany them to the cabin, taking their own vehicles and towing camping gear, then alternate between their wolf and human forms during shifts.
When Roman got into the drivers seat of his truck, he noticed the quality of light had shifted.
It seemed cooler somehow, and the shadows sharper.
He felt the Oracle push gently through the link.
Its starting, Roman.
A graced luna mating is a ritual in itself, an astral event that brings a clashing of moons and souls.
~The Moon Goddess is preparing.~ He glanced up at the sky, where an unexpected eclipse had begun.
I wondered.
Thank you, Oracle.
My pleasure, Alpha.
Become one with your luna.
Roman shut down the pack link but kept open his private one with Abby, who was currently glaring at him, eyes glowing.
Irritation mixed with desire was coming off her in waves.
He grabbed her thigh and sparks flew.
Heat was radiating from her.
Come here.
His voice was deep as he commanded her, and he could hear her breath pick up.
The air was thick with desire and intentions, and there was an edge to her and her wolf.
ABIGAIL After scooching over, Abby looked down at Romans hand on her leg.
A long, low throb hit between her pubic bone and belly button, and she threw back her head and released a breathy laugh.
She was on fire.
The more she started to feel Roman and his own body heat, the hotter she becameand the longer her nails grew.
Alpha power rolled off her mate in heavy waves, crashing over her.
As her body temperature shot up, her clothes began to bother her.
She wanted themoff .
She squirmed in her seat, afraid to open her mouth because her canines were starting to elongate as well.
The truck jerked to a stop in front of a log cabin with a small porch.
Donot shift, Roman barked.
Do you understand me? ROMAN Roman shoved open his door and jumped out of the truck.
Abby was panting when he opened her door.
He threw her over his shoulder and stalked toward the cabin.
The sky had darkened, and the fading light gave a serene yet eerie look to the land.
A mist was starting to form, rising from the ground and swirling around his feet.
The silver glow around Abby started to pulse as the mist got higher.
Roman fumbled with the keys, and when he finally managed to open the door, he let out a breath, feeling a calm settle over them both.
He set Abby down, glad to see her nails had gone back to normal and her canines were no longer peeking from under her lip.
Roman could feel his eyes light up with the glow of his wolf, and Abbys eyes flamed a shade of emerald he hadnt seen before.
He reached for her hand, and when their fingers touched, both gold and silver rained down from the point of contact, leaving a glittery trail as he pulled her inside.
The threading of their beings had begun.
Alpha, she whispered.
I feel…everything .
Andhe felt everything too.
The sun and the moon dancing, the stars singing inside her body, calling out to him.
A burst of intense power blew out from her, a silver ripple, and there was no stopping it from moving through the link.
It kicked open every door between himself and the pack, and every wolf felt warm and at peace.
Joy flowed through the pack lands as the moon blocked out the sun in preparation for the graced lunas heat.
CARSON
Carson stood beside his father, watching as the moon started to move in front of the sun, and frowned.
The lunar calendar hadnt indicated an eclipse would be happening.
The distinct smell of wolf floated across the mile-wide boundary, but it disappeared before he got a lock on it.
No doubt it came from Pack Luko scouts on patrol.
He felt a ripple ofsomething in his lower stomach, the same pain hed experienced a number of times in the last couple of hours.
It had started around the time hed noticed the eclipse coming.
His father turned to look at him, concern wrinkling his brow.
What is it? Carson opened his mouth to reassure his father, but a combination of pleasure and pain sucker punched him in the gut.
He doubled over and threw up black bile onto the ground in front of him.
Then another wave hit him, even harder than the firstit felt like a knife slicing under his belly button.
He was so sure something had cut him, he pulled up his shirt and ran his hand across his stomach.
But when his hand came away devoid of the blood he expected to see, he retched again and fell to his knees.
The last thing he heard was his dad yelling his name.
