The others flinched at the term I didn’t recognize, but my wolf understood the significance.
He accepts you as a wolf,she informed me.It is what we are.
Omega,I thought, rolling the word over in my mind before another stab of desire made me grab my stomach.
Gods, that hurt.
My legs began to shake and my entire body trembled.
“We have to leave,now,” Kane told me with an intense strain to his voice that I hadn’t heard before. Leaning to look at him over my shoulder, my mouth began to water.
He looked so… vulnerable.
His cut form could have been made from marble, and gods, his eyes.
They shimmered with magic and want, the naked desire in his gaze making my throat work over a swallow.
His divine body flexed as he curled his fingers into fists. He’d extended his claws and didn’t seem to notice that they now dug into his flesh, leaving bright, crimson blood to drip onto the cave floor.
The Moon Blossoms seemed to lean toward the spilled essence.
There was so much about him I didn’t know, and whatever hesitation I held before now washed away when I witnessed the power of his restraint.
Because he was my alpha, and my heat was hitting him hard.
“It’s only going to get worse,” Kane said with a low rumble to his voice, as if his wolf strongly disapproved of him simply standing there instead of doing something about the raw ache between my legs.
He’d already tasted me.
What harm would there be in doing that again?
Although, I knew it wouldn’t stop there this time. A growl of my own vibrated in my throat as I straightened and showed him my teeth.
“I want to finish what we started,” I told him, making his jaw clench.
“But the High Moon—”
I held up a hand, flashing the dark cave with brilliant light as the heart of the Goddess shone through my soul. His pupils swiftly dilated as he took in my naked form.
“Iamthe High Moon,” I informed him as the light settled into a shade brighter than it had been a moment before.
The reason for that was because I’d justcreatedthe coveted Moon Blossoms. They continued to sprout at my feet and loose petals whispered through the caves on an invisible wind.
Something in me had changed.
And I was going to fucking embrace it.
KANE
Fuck. She was beautiful.
My entire body tensed and my heartbeat thundered in my ears as I adjusted to the reality of what Kaitsja had just told me.
She was the Goddess… that I’d already known.
But She’d already learned to channel the power of the Goddess’s heart. My vision sprinkled with stars after Her demonstration left me speechless.
Wielding moonlight was the pinnacle of power within the Moon Pack.
