Christmas: the annual Christian festival celebrating Christ's birth, held on December 25 in the Western church. A festival I was never able to celebrate with Jerry. The thing was; my parents were born Catholic. I remember celebrating this occasion annually without fault. Until they died. With no other living relatives, I bounced around like an object-nev...
Coral Sexson's POVArrowhead Pack House As soon as the trial ended, I ran over to congratulate Chase and Rori. "Thank you," Chase sent to his family and Pack as we gathered around them. "I need to get back home," Carson sent to me. "My jet is waiting at the Twin Harbors airport, but the pilots have FAA-required rest until six PM. If you want to fly home wit...
"So, you're a real-life wizard then?" Sophia said, staring out the hole in the wall of my office. "Yup." "Fu-uck." I glanced over her. I knew how she felt. I remembered the first time I saw magic being done. It's a world-altering moment for anyone. "I would offer you a drink, but it seems I accidentally blew up my drink collection." "That's okay," Sophi...
Luna's Love Life, Ch. 02: Making Plans We arrive safely at Columbia Falls and drive up to a vantage point with a good view (and near a public toilet). Of course, it's about 1 AM and pretty dark right now, but it'll look great in the morning. We retract the seats in the Bronco, roll out an underlay and unpack our sleeping bags. We slide the sunroof open a b...

Before I started college I met this girl, Luna. It was weird because we met each other through the internet. I don't exactly remember where or how but as soon as we started talking to each other we clicked instantly. She was an artsy, innocent, easily embarrassment type of girl. And me being the perv that I am always took advantage of that. I'd tease her n...
Alpha Rori King's POV Arrowhead Pack House I put down my phone as Chase was working on setting up the videoconference equipment in our office. "She agreed to sell us the property," I told my mate. "Good. We're going to need the room, and Spider won't be around to rebuild the home." "There's a partial bag of cash in the safe room. I said we would retr...
First time submission. Most of this came to me in the middle of the night. I had a small idea I wanted to write down so I wouldn't forget, and then this came out. Did some editing with a friend and had to find another word processor to spell check. All comments welcome, even the mean ones- I'm a new writer so even unconstructive criticism can be useful. Hope...
"T -60 seconds for deorbiting maneuver, thrusters are...go, reorienting-" Something bounces against my head in the small cockpit of my craft. "Ouch...Where were we...Oh right T -45, 10° off of target vector." The craft aligns itself along the preset flight path. I watch as the maneuvering fuel crosses the 50% mark. "T - 20, main engine warm-up, Aligned...
Talia's POV I was practically shaking, the idea that someone I trusted had betrayed us had my wolf prowling in my mind. I pulled out my phone and dialed. "Uncle Clark, there's a problem," I said. I told him what had been reported to me about the behavior of the Copper Creek pack, leaving out who told me and why they were watching. "Alpha Justin Heranus and...
